Chapter 225: Reborn
The sky is infinitely large, and the flowing clouds change their appearance in the wind. The pigeon is accustomed to captivity, and enjoys the slow basin and food box, but the raging wind outside makes it tremble, and the sky is not as vast as its owner's soothing. At this moment, the cage that confined the soaring became home, and he became the quietest prisoner.
The mayor's reaction and the other three were all shocked, Fang Fan and Jinqiu looked at Lin Yu, hoping to get a reasonable explanation from him, but Lin Yu's silence also said everything. After a few moments, the golden light receded, and the mayor's face gradually improved.
"How are you feeling?"
The mayor's originally gray eyes gradually flashed a glimmer of light, and he let out a long breath and said.
"I didn't think I would survive."
At this time, Lin Yu whispered.
"The time of the spell doesn't last long, so if you want to know something, hurry up and ask."
Fang Fan nodded and asked bluntly.
"Why did Sora become like this?"
Mayor Marew let out a long sigh and said.
"He came back to me and said he wanted to be me. I didn't care what a ghost boy could set off, so I waited quietly for the moment when death came. He came to me for days, but I really didn't know how to make a ghost like me, I still didn't give him any answer, and he threatened me with the destruction of the spirit source at that time, but how could I care about the life or death of the spirit source at that time. ”
"Why did Sora do that?"
"On the one hand, it hated me and hated everything I did to Mo Zhu. On the other hand, he believes in the legends of ghost towns. ”
"What legend?"
"Within a hundred days, you can use the spiritual source to reorganize the soul of a person whose soul is scattered."
Fang Fan's eyes widened and he asked.
"Is this true?"
"Theoretically, yes. The spiritual source brings together countless souls, as long as you can capture the soul fragments of the person whose soul is scattered, you can put it into the spiritual source, and then use the power of the spiritual source to piece together a complete soul. But the manipulator's own soul must also be strong enough, otherwise it will not be able to harness the power of the spiritual source. ”
"So the Spirit Source is like a large data center, which can be analyzed and integrated based on soul fragments."
"It's understandable. Therefore, Sora just wanted to make his soul extremely powerful, so as to reorganize Mo Zhu's soul. ”
"I didn't expect Mo Zhu to be so important to him, so what happened later?"
"With my ability at the time, it was impossible to help make the soul stronger."
"Then why did he become the way he is?"
"Because of the man named Nagi Ling. I don't know why he was here, but the first thing he did when he appeared was to find Sora, and then help him use the spirit source to subdue all the souls in Ghost Town. ”
"What? All the souls of the ghost town have been collected into the spiritual source? ”
"That's right. The spirit source was originally the core of the ghost town, and if it was destroyed, the ghost town would no longer exist. If the power of the spiritual source is exerted to the extreme, it is equivalent to a time bomb. Even I didn't collect all the souls of the ghost town into the spiritual source, and doing so would undoubtedly destroy the balance of the ghost town. If this continues, sooner or later, the empty will be swallowed by the spirit source, and in the end, the entire ghost town will be destroyed. ”
"Isn't there a way to stop the Spirit Source?"
"It's still the method I said, which is to have a powerful soul to control the spiritual source."
Jinqiu thought for a while and said.
"Isn't that spiritual source a free ride? The culprit is still the man named Nagi Ling. Who the hell is he? ”
"I don't know. He's very good at manipulating souls, and he shouldn't be an easy character to deal with. ”
A golden light flashed in Ling Yuan's hand again, and then the spell in his palm began to fade gradually, and he looked at Fang Fan and said.
"He's running out of time."
Fang Fan hurriedly asked again.
"Mayor Town, if you die, will the spiritual source also be destroyed?"
Mayor Marew shook his head weakly and said.
"No, the spiritual source is no longer under my control, the connection between me and the spiritual source has been severed by Nagi Ling, and I am now just an old man who is about to die."
As soon as the words fell, the town mayor suddenly grabbed Fang Fan and said.
"Although I am guilty of great evil, I have one thing to ask for, and I hope you will satisfy me at my last moment."
Fang Fan sighed and said.
"What's the matter?"
"Can you scatter my soul after I die, I don't want to be devoured by the spiritual source."
After a moment, Fang Fan nodded and said.
"I promise you."
"Thank you. Finally, I don't have to suffer in the path of reincarnation. ”
At this time, Lin Yu pondered for a moment and said.
"Since then, there has been no trace of you in this world."
"It's okay."
With that, the mayor's eyes were covered with gray again. A moment later, Mayor Mare's soul appeared in front of the three of them, and he said.
"Fang Fan, let's do it."
"Have you figured it out?"
Mayor Mare nodded. Fang Fan inserted the Luo Blade into his palm, and the moment he pulled it out, a dazzling red light flashed. Suddenly, the knife fell, and the mayor was reduced to pieces. Lin Yu noticed that when the mayor disappeared, there was still a smile on his lips.
"Sure enough, even the most evil person will show his most innocent appearance when he is dying."
Jinqiu said with a smile.
"At the beginning of man, nature is good. The same is true when people die, because they have no desires and no desires, so they will be innocent and kind. ”
At this time, Lin Yu said.
"The matter has come to this, the most important thing is to find a way to get the spiritual source."
"You have all heard the words of the mayor, you must have a more powerful soul to control the power of the spirit source."
Fang Fan touched the stubble on his chin and said.
"I don't know if the Nightmare soul can suppress the spiritual source."
Hearing this, Jinqiu said.
"Are you going to release the Nightmare's soul?"
"No, of course it's still in me, but I'm acting as a medium."
"What are you kidding. It took a long time to restrain the soul of the nightmare, and now you want to get him out again? Fang Fan, you are not a superhuman, and it is impossible for the Flowing Cloud Technique to be effective against Nightmare forever, you can think about it carefully, if you release it this time, maybe it will be more difficult to suppress it in the future than to ascend to the sky. ”
"No matter what, I'm going to give it a try. Now it's not just Wu Jia who is at stake, if you leave it alone, even the void will be swallowed by the spiritual source. In addition, the man named Nagi Ling attacked the spiritual source through the air, indicating that his purpose was the spiritual source. But he didn't know what he wanted to do with the spiritual source. Instead of being beaten passively, it is better for us to take the spiritual source into our own hands first. ”
Jinqiu sighed and said.
"Yes, what you said is not unreasonable, but this cannot be used as a reason for you to play with your life."
"Do you have any other good idea?"
Jinqiu was speechless when asked, but he still didn't agree to let Fang Fan take the risk, so he said.
"I don't agree with you doing it anyway."
Fang Fan looked at Lin Yu and asked.
"What about you? Do you have no faith in me either? ”
Lin Yu didn't know what to say, he secretly glanced at Jinqiu, and found that Jinqiu was looking at him with a frown, and that look seemed to say, as long as you kid say yes, I will never spare you. Lin Yu's heart tightened, and he said after a moment of silence.
"I think it's going to have to be a long-term thing."
Hearing this, Jinqiu's brows stretched suddenly, and he echoed.
"It's like, it's not a small thing, we have to think about it. And you have to ask Yuehan's opinion. ”
Fang Fan smiled and said.
"Let's find a place to rest first, and then we'll make plans tomorrow."
The three of them found a sheltered place, and after a while, Jinqiu and Lin Yu fell asleep. But Fang Fan hadn't slept because he was waiting for this opportunity. He tiptoed out of his backpack the rope for emergency situations, and then tied the two of them tightly. Jinqiu woke up suddenly, found himself tied up, and shouted.
"Fang Fan, what are you doing here?"
"If I can come back, I'll loosen your ties then, and if you can't come back, you can settle it yourself. I know this rope can't hold you back, but it shows my attitude. If you break this rope now, don't blame me for turning my face. ”
After that, Fang Fan walked out without looking back. Jinqiu behind him shouted loudly.
"Fang Fan, when you come back, we'll discuss it again."
Without waiting for Fang Fan's answer for a long time, Lin Yu asked.
"What are we going to do? Did he really watch Fang Fan go to his death by himself? ”
"That's not nonsense, hurry up and find a way to loosen it."
The golden light in Lin Yu's hand flashed, and then the golden light changed into a sharp hand knife, cutting the rope. By the time the two of them ran out, there was no trace of Fang Fan.
"Where is he going?"
"Needless to say, it's definitely empty."
Indeed, after Fang Fan left, he went straight to the big house just now. At this time, his whole body was bloody, and even his hair was red. A few minutes ago, he had made a deal with Nightmare in his heart.
"Nightmare, I need your help."
In the deepest part of Fang Fan's heart, a fierce beast was trapped here. It has become accustomed to the ordinary and stable life here, and even forgot that it is a pet kept by Fang Fan. Nightmare stood up, and the chains on his body shook with a rattling sound.
"You need my help? Aren't you afraid that I will plunder your body again? ”
"The situation is compelling."
"You use my power to imprison my soul in your body, and you are afraid that you are not as good as those wicked people you have destroyed. Is that what is your righteousness? ”
"Now is not the time to argue about this, I want you to use your soul to suppress the spiritual source, if you are willing to help, I will meet any of your conditions."
"Any conditions? It sounds tempting, but what if you regret it? ”
"I won't."
"Okay, I can help you. But the premise is that you come to me. ”
"Shall I go to you?"
"That's right, you come to the deepest part of your heart and feel it, you will definitely be shocked."
Fang Fan pondered for a moment and said.
"Okay, I agree. But it can't occupy my body permanently. ”
Wei Yin smiled and said.
"Deal, but this can't be considered my condition, you have to promise me one thing afterwards."
"Yes."
After that, Nightmare jumped out of the deepest part of what seemed to be a deep well, it turned out that he had always had the ability to come out, but he had never used it. Immediately afterwards, Wei pushed Fang Fan down and said.
"You can stay here steadily, and I'll discuss the terms with you when I come back."
With that, the nightmare disappeared, and Fang Fan's surroundings fell into the deepest darkness. The first thing he saw after taking over Fang Fan's body was a desolate desert, and he said.
"The place that greeted Uncle Ben's rebirth was a piece of damn sand."
Wei pulled out the Luo blade from his palm, took it in his hand, and said.
"Fang Haotian, how did that old guy think that such a toy knife could control me?"
After walking a few steps, he saw the big house. Nightmare took a deep breath and said.
"Hmm. There are countless souls here, and it is a place that Uncle Ben likes. ”
Nightmare slung Luo Blade on his shoulder, shouting as he walked inside.
"Is there any gasping for air? Hurry up and get out of here. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a boulder flew towards him. Wei waved his knife and looked over, and the boulder was split in half, revealing a wicked smile in the gap.
"Finally someone greeted Uncle Ben."
Immediately, the nightmare swung a red sword wind, and a deep crack appeared in the ground, followed by an astonishing sound from inside. Wei swaggered in, looked at the person sitting in front of him, and then raised his blade and pointed at the other party and asked.
"You're empty?"
Sora raised his eyes and said.
"Fang Fan, you actually dare to come back?"
Wei said as he put Luo Blade back on his shoulder.
"Don't get me wrong, I'm not Fang Fan. That soft ass has been locked up by me. If nothing else, you won't see him again until you're gone from this world. ”
"Oh? I didn't expect Fang Fan to find such a foreign aid as you, so let's see what you are capable of. ”
With that, Sora held the spiritual source in his hand, and then the spiritual source rose into the air. Several white lights flew out of it, and the nightmare was like watching acrobatics, and he was almost applauded with excitement.
"Hey, you're playing a lot more fancy now than I was back then. It's like magic. ”
Before the words fell, the white light that fell to the ground turned into resentful spirits. It turned out that Sora released the soul in the spiritual source, and under Sora's instructions, it became the most terrible resentful spirit. The resentful spirit roared and rushed towards the nightmare, not to mention these things to the nightmare, even for the other party, it was a piece of cake. Luo Blade slashed left and right in the air, and after a while, those unjust souls turned into countless fragments and fell to the ground, Wei Xiao said with a sneer.
"That's all you can do?"
Sora said with a smile.
"Don't be too happy."
Suddenly, the fragments turned into one wraith after another, like earthworms, and even if they were cut off, they would become independent individuals. Wei Wei frowned and said.
"Uncle, I hate this kind of pestering guy the most."
With that, a black-red flame appeared in his palm, and then it was like a shotgun and shot at those resentful spirits, and the slain spirits immediately burned and turned into clumps of ashes. Wei looked at the sky arrogantly and said.
"Gone? Uncle Ben hasn't had enough fun yet. ”
At this time, countless resentful spirits appeared again from the spirit source, and they did not rush forward, but gathered together first, fusing into a huge resentful spirit. He looks like a Japanese samurai, and the Toyo sword in his left hand is also eager to try. Nightmare said with a smile.
"The local ones don't work, so you found Little Japan? You don't have any discipline. ”
"I'll tear your mouth apart first."
With that, the Toyo sword slashed at the nightmare. Wei didn't dodge or dodge, and raised his hand to block the huge Oriental knife with his blade.
"It's finally like a little bit, and it's not in vain that I came out once."
With his right hand, he flicked the Toyo sword away, then jumped up and slashed sideways with his hand. A red afterimage was left in the air, and the wraiths screamed, and the wounds on their faces were clearly visible. Suddenly, the wraith roared, and the wound he had just healed.
"Oh? It's not a small temper. ”
The Nightmare leaped again, and the Blade slashed from the top of the Wraith's head. There was a sound of metal colliding in the air, and Luo Blade was blocked by the Toyo Knife. Nightmare let out a maniacal laugh and said.
"Do you think that's going to stop me?"
With that, Luo Blade's strength increased again, and then the Oriental knife broke in half, and Luo Blade's blade slashed down the shoulder of the resentful spirit. The nightmare pursued the victory, and the flames in the palm of his hand condensed again, gradually turning into a fireball. The Nightmare stepped on the Wraith's arm and rushed upward, then leapt into the air and slammed the entire fireball on top of the Wraith's head. The wraiths were reduced to ashes with screams.
"Let's come with something else."
Sora slowly stood up, then walked down the steps and stood directly below the spirit source, and said lightly.
"Your soul is what the Spirit Source desires most."
"You can pull it down. Uncle, I don't want to be trapped in that ball, instead of this, I am still more comfortable in Fang Fan's body. Besides, that thing won't shut me down. ”
"Then I'll have to force you in."
Suddenly, several rays of white light penetrated into the empty body, followed by white light all over the body. The nightmare obscured the dazzling glare of light, which faded after a moment. Wei looked at the little boy in front of him and said.
"Are you asking for mercy?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the little boy pushed his hand at the nightmare, and then the nightmare flew backwards, slamming into the stone wall behind it. Wei looked at the little boy in surprise and said.
"People have become smaller, but this strength is a lot greater."
"This is the fate of your underestimating enemy, how about it? Do you still think I'm easy to deal with? ”
Wei said with a smile.
"Bluffing little brat, show you what power is."
After that, Wei Xiao's whole body was flushed, and there was no change in his appearance due to Fang Fan's body, but his face became extremely red. At this time, Wei put away Luo Blade and said.
"This toy knife is of little use to you, so let's play with it seriously."
There was a sound of breaking the air, and the nightmare had already rushed to the front of the air, and punched into the air, and the air dodged sideways, and then the fist turned into a claw, and grabbed the back of the empty neck with a backhand. Duck ducked, but it was still a little slow, leaving two red claw marks on the back of his neck.
Just as he was shrinking back to dodge, his fist was also aimed at Nightmare's abdomen, and then he punched Nightmare in the stomach with all his might, and Nightmare suddenly felt his intestines churn together. A sharp pain caused him to retreat again and again.
"This skin is a obstacle."
Sora didn't give Nightmare a chance to breathe, and then stepped forward and punched him in the face again. The force of this punch is not much lighter than the previous punch, and after many years, the nightmare tastes blood again, but it is his own. Wei wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and suddenly raised his hand to stop the empty that was about to rush over, and said.
"Wait..."
Sora stood in place in surprise and said.
"Can't you afford to play?"
"The little cub has two hits, you are relying on your soul to bully people."
"So what."
With that, he struck at the nightmare, who rolled over and dodged. Then he knelt on the ground and said as he looked at the slightly embarrassed Nightmare.
"Where's that momentum you just had? Didn't you say you wanted to have fun with me? I didn't feel your sincerity. ”
The nightmare didn't make a sound, his body seemed to be on fire, and the red light jumped faster and faster, illuminating the whole room red. Suddenly, a red phantom stood up from Fang Fan's body, and the phantom turned into an entity little by little. Blood-red eyes the size of copper bells, white fangs stuck outside their lips, and strong limbs trampled the floor out of pits and holes. The detached from Fang Fan's body moved his shoulders and said.
"It feels great to come out."
"So you're the nightmare."
"Oh? It seems that Uncle Ben is indeed underestimated, so the kid will wash his neck and wait. ”
With that, the nightmare suddenly disappeared, and then appeared behind the air, and then slapped the air from the side, and the air was unable to dodge and was knocked out. But the lightness of his body made his movement particularly flexible, and just as he was about to hit the wall, he adjusted his body in the air and kicked the wall with both feet, and then pounced on the nightmare.
Nightmare didn't take Sora's attack seriously, and raised his hand to block Sora's attack. Then he clenched his fists hard, and Sora screamed again and again under the suppression of the huge power of the nightmare. Nightmare lifted his foot and kicked the air out, and by this time he was barely able to dodge Nightmare's attack.
"Boy, now you know what power is, right?"
"You red dog, what's so arrogant."
At this time, several white lights appeared from the spirit source, ready to drill into the empty body, and at this moment, Wei Xiao suddenly jumped up and held the spirit source in mid-air in his hand, and after playing for a while, he said playfully.
"That's where your strength comes from, right? You don't want anything like that. ”
With that, the nightmare clenched his fists hard and smashed the spirit source. Seeing this, Sora immediately panicked and shouted.
"Don't."
"It's not for kids."
Fragments of the spirit source slipped from Nightmare's palm and fell to the ground. At this time, a figure suddenly flashed out of the darkness, and several silver needles stabbed towards the fly, and the nightmare took a few steps back and barely dodged.
"Who?"
"As an ancient evil spirit, Lord Nightmare actually bullied children here, if it spreads, wouldn't it be laughed out of his big teeth?"
When he looked closely, there was a man with a hat standing in front of him. At this time, the fragments of the spiritual source slowly gathered towards him, and then returned to their original state in the palm of his hand. The man said gently.
"Don't break other people's stuff at will, it's rude."
"What are you to teach me a lesson?"
"Let me introduce myself, my name is Nagi Ling. is a passer-by in the world, and he likes to take care of injustices. ”
"Nagi Ling? I haven't heard of it, don't bother the uncle to fight, get out. ”
As soon as the words fell, Nagi Ling had already teleported in front of the nightmare, and then slapped the nightmare in the chest and shouted.
"Forbidden."
Suddenly, Wei felt that he was being dragged by some kind of force, and the destination was Fang Fan's body. When he opened his eyes again, he found that he had been forcibly put into Fang Fan's body, and he felt that his whole body could no longer exert any strength.
"Who the hell are you?"
Nagi Ling smiled faintly and said.
"Shingon monk."
