Chapter 563: Ability Advancement
Since the return of the Journey to the West Demon World, the effect of the Divine Soul Enhancement Reward after completing Mission 3 has exceeded Xu Jing's expectations, making his Divine Soul scanning range reach a level close to the range of nine thousand meters.
He asked the system, with his own conditions, as long as the soul scanning range reached 10,000 meters, he would be able to break through to the realm of soul condensation.
In other words, as long as this mission 3 is successfully completed, he will be able to condense his soul completely, and after he returns, he will be able to go to the land of Fire Phoenix Nirvana and implement the plan of seizing the opponent's law and cultivation.
Therefore, for this task 3, Xu Jing attaches great importance to it.
Kronos is one part of Mission 3, and the other part of the complete end of the Age of the Gods is also not to be underestimated.
And if you want to end the gods, according to the prompts given at the bottom of the system, only by completely ending their lives can you complete the task.
Among the gods, the strength of the twelve main gods such as Zeus is closely related to the beliefs of human beings, and now the contradictions with human beings are deteriorating day by day, and their strength is in a state of continuous decline, and if this state is accelerated again, it will not be difficult to deal with.
The only thing that troubled Xu Jing was Hades.
Unlike Zeus and other gods, Hades ruled the underworld, mortals were afraid of death, so they hated and feared him, and for countless years, while he suffered from these negative emotions, the power in his body also changed.
He didn't need faith, and mortal fears gradually became a source of his strength.
Faith in this world may decline or even disappear, but fear will not, because the vast majority of people are afraid of death, of all kinds of things.
And as the number of human beings increases, Hades's power will only get stronger and stronger, plus he controls the underworld, ferries the souls of the dead, and has the ability to resurrect the dead.
If Hades does not die, with his ambition, sooner or later he will be resurrected or cultivate some gods, re-establish the divine realm, and become the new god king.
What happens after killing Perseus, or avoiding them?
Xu Jing thought about it carefully, if he did this, Argos would definitely be unable to resist in the face of the Kraken's attack, and the fearful people would snatch the princess from the palace to sacrifice for survival.
This was originally a conspiracy, Hades hated Zeus for deceiving him at the beginning, and took the opportunity to release the Kraken, causing a wide range of fear among humans, and his strength would increase step by step.
And Zeus seems to have punished mankind, but he has also lost faith, and the fearful humans will not be grateful and love him, and the strength of the gods will fall into a trough.
When the time comes, Hades will overthrow Zeus's rule and try to enter the heavenly realm.
The twelve main gods of Olympus are not monolithic, and if Hades is expected to overthrow Zeus, there will definitely be people who will turn against him and join them.
Xu Jing can imagine that it will definitely be a battle of gods and spirits at that time.
Although such a war will inevitably fall many gods to facilitate his completion of the task, Hades has a great chance of winning, and if the opponent's strength increases, it will be more difficult to deal with in the future, which is not the result he wants.
"Deal with Hades first, then Zeus."
Xu Jing quickly made a decision, Zeus and other gods relied on the power of faith, and now because of human disloyalty, they are in a period of decline in strength, which is much easier to deal with than Hades.
After making a decision, he didn't go anywhere, he directly summoned the system, and silently recited the power of the curse in the bloodline in his heart.
In the next second, a large amount of origin energy appeared in his body and merged into his blood.
Grunt~!
In an instant, the blood in Xu Jing's body was like boiling water, gushing and boiling.
Hiss~!
The snake hair on his head fluttered wildly, and one after another the poisonous snakes opened their mouths wide and spat out snake letters, and hissed in pain.
Immediately after that, a burst of intense pain spread throughout the body, even reaching the soul.
Bang bang bang!
He rolled on the ground in pain in an instant, and the long snake body swayed back and forth, sweeping away the stone pillars and the like on the platform where he was.
"Why does it hurt so much?"
Xu Jing had almost forgotten how long it had been since this happened, but he couldn't only bear it passively now.
In this case, he quickly blocked the divine soul's induction of the body, all consciousness was withdrawn, the divine soul was stabilized, and he switched to the perspective of God, allowing the body to writhe wildly unconsciously.
Trails of smoky green blood seeped from all over his skin and onto the ground.
Zizizi~!
This blood was like concentrated sulfuric acid, as soon as it touched the ground, it immediately corroded a large piece, and it continued to penetrate downward.
At the same time, the upper half of his body, which was rarely covered with scales, visibly grew hard scales to the naked eye, neatly arranged, and connected with the lower body.
Knock knock!
A clear and powerful heartbeat sounded, and Xu Jing saw that his body was growing and expanding one by one, and soon his body size reached twice the original level.
And that wasn't the end of it, as the air around him buzzed, a strange wave suddenly appeared from all directions, enveloping all over his body.
In an instant, it was as if there were countless invisible carving knives, drawing simple and strange lines on his scales.
"The law!"
Xu Jing's heart moved, and he instantly broke away from God's perspective and reunited closely with his body.
Although the sharp pain like tearing his body still existed, at this moment, he completely ignored it and devoted himself to comprehending the law.
It was a new law he had never been exposed to, and it felt like an earth law, but it seemed to be different, mixed with another strange nature.
"Is it the law of fusion classes?"
When the fluctuations in the surrounding air dissipated, Xu Jing slowly opened his eyes, looking down at his body full of mysterious lines and shining gray light, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
He released the law disk, looked over, there was a trace of gray-brown on it, although he had not comprehended the law of the earth system, but when he passed through the pig gang in the last world, he also understood it, if he comprehended the law of the earth system, the pattern that appeared on the disc should never be gray-brown.
"Let's try our current abilities first."
Xu Jing's heart moved, and he withdrew the law disk, and at the same time, the light on his body gradually dimmed, and then the mysterious lines on the scales also disappeared.
He turned his head to look at the flames erupting from the cracks in the ground not far away, his head fluttering, and his eyes were like spotlights, releasing two gray-brown pillars of light, shining straight on the burning flames.
In an instant, the flame that was beating and burning like an elf suddenly stopped in mid-air, and then countless complex and mysterious patterns wrapped the flame inside, spreading downward, and the flame that was wrapped in it began to solidify in pieces, forming a huge fiery red crystal.
The crystal lasted only a brief moment before it changed again, from fiery red to gray and white, and then to a stone in the blink of an eye.
Xu Jing's snake body writhed, and he quickly stretched out his probe and looked at the abyss under the crack in the ground.
I saw that this stone, from the ground all the way down, spread like a huge irregular column, spreading to a distance of hundreds of meters.
But when they got there, the strange energy acting on the flames could not be sustained and dissipated.
Click!
The stone shattered inch by inch under the continuous eruption of underground flames, and then tumbled and fell into the abyss.
Xu Jing took a breath, he just tried it casually, but he didn't expect that his current ability could not only petrify flesh and blood creatures, but also flames.
This could mean that everything that his eyes saw, if he wanted to, would be petrified.
