Chapter 631: Gu Cultivation
"Cursed ......"
Meng Chao once again remembered that in the memory fragments of his previous life, his hair turned into a burning purple flame, looking at Bai Jiacao, a little sister who was particularly non-mainstream, domineering and cool, and had a greatly changed temperament.
He shuddered.
"In other words, as long as you encounter the danger of nine deaths in the depths of the ancient ruins, and survive, you will be 'cursed'?"
Meng Chao hurriedly asked, wanting to find a way to help the little sister avoid the curse.
"Not really."
Aji thought for a moment, shook his head, and said, "The core members of the Blood Alliance have also traveled through the ancient ruins many times, and have encountered dangers comparable to ours, but not everyone can obtain the Cross Cross Eye.
"Of course, the Blood Pact wants to study the mystery of the Cross Eye, after all, this tattoo means never-ending danger, but it also brings mysterious power.
"People with crossed eyes can often awaken more abilities than ordinary transcendentals, and also have stronger comprehension, self-healing power and improvement in all aspects, as long as they don't die, they have a better chance of breaking through the limits of life.
"The problem is that no matter how much the Blood Alliance researches, it can't find a pattern for the appearance of the crossed crosseyes.
"Sometimes, at any cost, they send a team of hundreds of people to go deep into the ancient ruins, and sure enough, they encounter all kinds of thrilling dangers, and the team is almost completely wiped out, leaving only one or two survivors.
"These two survivors may not be strong men with both wisdom and bravery, but they just can't show cross-eyes.
"There are also times when ordinary people who are obviously powerless are thrown into the ancient ruins as 'cannon fodder' or 'control group', and they survive by chance, but there are crossed crosseyes on their bodies.
"It seems that the curse has come not only on the explorer's performance in the primeval ruins, but also on his physical fitness, cell activity, mental tenacity, ability to adapt and even amazing luck...... All sorts of bizarre factors are involved.
"And, it's strange that the chance of a curse is highest when the primeval ruins are first opened, when three or four out of ten explorers will have crossed crosseyes.
"But as the number of owners of the Cross Cross Eyes grew, so did the number of new 'cursed'.
"When the Blood Alliance completely occupies the primeval ruins, as I said earlier, a hundred explorers will go on an adventure, and a new owner of the crossed crosseye may not appear.
"According to the analysis of the experts of the Blood Alliance, the total number of crossed crosseyes should be limited, and this thing is like a label for the primeval civilization to choose a successor - when the primeval civilization discovers that the explorer who goes deep into the ruins has a certain potential to obtain all the primeval inheritance, it will attach such a label to the explorer.
"The so-called 'potential' is not purely force and intelligence.
"The strength and wisdom of the earthlings at this stage, measured by the standards of the ancient civilization, are not worth mentioning at all - just like in the eyes of humans, what is the difference between the strongest ant and the weakest ant?
"If humans really want to find some suitable ants to inherit our civilization, there is naturally another set of standards and test methods.
"And when there are enough 'inheritors' to be tested by the labels, the primeval ruins will not issue more tags until one of the owners of the crossed crosseyes dies, which means that he has not passed the test, and a new curse may appear."
"I see."
Meng Chao nodded, and then he understood that Bai Jiacao, the youngest sister in his previous life, should have inherited his "curse" after the death of a certain owner of the crossed crosseye and became the "inheritor" or "tester" of the new primeval civilization.
Judging from the experience of the little sister incarnating into a night witch and crisscrossing the otherworldly continent, the primeval civilization is really terrifying!
"So, the 'Sword' Jin Wanhao and the 'Martial God' Lei Zongchao are both owners of the Cross Cross Eye?"
Meng Chao stared at Aji's heart and asked with interest, "What other supreme powerhouses are there in Dragon City who are the owners of the crossed cross eyes?" ”
"Lei Zongchao is indeed yes, but I don't know more people."
Aji said honestly, "The partners who went deep into the ancient ruins with Jin Wanhao and Lei Zongchao were either killed in the fierce battle against the Blood Alliance, or fell in the arduous war in the following decades, even if they are really the owners of the crossed crosseyes, their curse has long been transferred to the new generation."
"Moreover, this cross-eyed tattoo is very strange, it is usually hidden in the depths of the bloodline, and it will only appear when he is angry, his spiritual energy is out of control, and he will only emerge when he stirs the life magnetic field to the limit, as long as the owner of the cross-eyed cross-eye has the intention to hide it, it is difficult for others to discover his identity.
"My words are because after the rejuvenation, the huge strength of the 'Tyrant Knife' Jin Wanhao and the immature body of this nine-year-old child cannot be coordinated, and the life magnetic field is often out of control, and the cross-eye tattoo will involuntarily emerge.
"When I cultivate for another year and a half, I will be able to control this brand-new body, and it should also disappear."
"That's ......"
Meng Chao nodded thoughtfully, keenly grasping Aji's voice, "What, the owner of the Cross Cross Eyes doesn't want others to know their identity?" ”
“…… Yes. ”
Aji hesitated for a moment, but nodded and explained, "First, because the Crossed Cross Eye contains mysterious danger and power, it is very likely to represent the inheritance of the primeval civilization, and it is also the core research project of the Blood Alliance, so the Blood Alliance will use the Cross Cross Eye as its own badge.
"In the past, the Blood Alliance, under the banner of the Cross Cross Eye, did all the bad things of madness, provoked the wrath of the heavens and the people, and made the Cross Cross Eye a symbol of blood, killing, and evil.
"Many members of the Blood Alliance, even though they are not cursed, also like to tattoo a crossed cross eye on their body, and over time, all people with crossed cross eye tattoos are considered to be peerless murderers full of evil, and in the late end of the world a few decades ago, everyone was condemned.
"Second, and more importantly, some of the owners of the Cross Eyes also like to kill each other and hunt other cursed ones."
"Cannibalism?"
Meng Chao was taken aback, "What is the truth of this?" ”
"Didn't you just say that the experts of the Blood Alliance believe that the so-called 'Cross Cross Eye' is a label that is used by the primeval civilization to mark the tester, and as long as the test is completed, it can inherit the full power of the primeval civilization."
Aji said with a strange face, "But, have you ever wondered what the test is about?" ”
Meng Chao pondered for a moment and said, "Continue to explore the ancient ruins?" ”
"Probably not."
Aji shook his head slowly, "There are many people exploring the ancient ruins, and not all of them have crossed eyes when there were so many explorers in the past; To this day, there is still the 'Ruins Research Institute' under the Transcendent Tower, and countless elite soldiers and astronomical resources have been invested in exploration, but I have never heard of more and stronger owners of crossed crosses coming forward, let alone passing the test and obtaining the entire primeval heritage.
"Therefore, some owners of crossed cross-eyes, after thinking and meditating for a long time, suddenly thought that the so-called 'test' would be 'Gu raising'?"
Meng Chao was slightly stunned: "Raising Gu? ”
"That's right, there are a lot of beast masters in the beast control department of your agricultural university, all of whom are good at breeding and controlling insect monsters, and in the monster gladiatorial arena of the nest city, they also use a similar method to screen the strongest monsters, that is, to imprison all insects or monsters in a very small space, not to give them enough food, let them kill each other under the stimulation of hunger, you kill me, I eat you, kill the intestines and stomach, blood flows like a river, in the end, the only survivor is the strongest king!"
"The owners of these crossed cross-eyes believe that if they kill all the other owners of the cross-eyed and only one of them remains, even if they pass the test, they will inherit all the mysteries and powers of the primeval ruins, transcend the boundaries of human beings, and become literally 'primeval gods and demons'!" ”
"This, this is too!"
Meng Chao was horrified when he heard this, thought for a while, and said, "Wait, didn't you just say that the total number of crossed crosses is constant, as long as one owner dies, a new curse will come, and a new owner will appear, in this case, how can it be killed?" ”
"What I'm saying is, 'Only if one owner dies, there will be a new curse', it is possible, not necessarily it!"
Aji said, "Besides, this is just a speculation of the Blood Alliance, maybe in the long half century, the size of the owner of the crossed cross eyes has indeed been slowly shrinking, and it has been reduced by half or even two-thirds compared to that year?"
"You must know that many owners of the crossed crosses have tasted the taste of Shura Hell in the depths of the primeval ruins, and have also seen countless things that are absolutely unbearable and indescribable for human beings, even if they leave the primeval ruins with all their faces and tails, their minds have long been distorted into inhuman form, and their way of thinking and moral bottom line are completely different from normal people.
"Even if there is only a 1 in 10,000 chance that they can obtain all the 'treasures' in the primeval ruins, these people will do whatever it takes to get them."
Meng Chao swallowed with difficulty.
I am more and more reluctant to let my little sister Bai Jiacao participate in such a dangerous "Gu raising".
"Wouldn't all the owners of the Cross Eyes be so crazy?" Meng Chao asked tentatively.
"Naturally, not all, it should be said that only a very small number of owners of the crossed cross-eyes believe in this 'Gu raising theory', the problem is that as long as this small group of people provokes a war, the rest of the owners of the cross-cross-eyes have no choice but to fight."
Aji said, "Just imagine, if the two owners of the crossed crosses discovered each other's identities, how would they know that the other party was not a madman who believed in the 'Gu Raising Theory' and didn't want to kill the other party?
"You must know that the owners of the crossed crosses often have more powerful strength and more mysterious skills than ordinary transcendentals, and if they don't strike first, they don't know how to die in a minute!"
Meng Chao thought about it.
The human heart is unpredictable.
Wars between humans are often a hundred times more brutal than wars between humans and zombies, humans and monsters.
"Luckily, that was decades ago."
Aji said, "In recent years, I don't know if the owners of the crossed crosseyes are really getting fewer and fewer, or if everyone has learned to be smart and knows how to hide their identities, in short, the number of times this pattern appears in Dragon City is getting less and less, and most of the information about the crossed crosseyes has also been covered up and monopolized by various forces, and it has been a long time since I heard of a thrilling dark war between the owners of the crossed crosseyes."
"Of course, as a person cursed by the primeval ruins, you can't let your guard down anytime and anywhere.
"After discovering that his strength was exhausted, I immediately escaped into the ground, and after I rejuvenated, I did not hesitate to abandon my past identity, on the one hand, it was to avoid the gangs and super enterprises in Nest City, and more importantly, it was to avoid other owners of the crossed eyes - if they found out that I had become like this, they would definitely be eager to jump out of the dark corner and put me to death!"
