Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Afterimage
The whole book .,The fastest update of the latest chapter of the Burial Ghost Sutra!
Almost instantly, my consciousness dissipated along with the ancient qi.
The whole human body, along with the soul, fell into an endless sea of brilliance.
Yes, it was a body of water made of crystal clear liquid, but it was not empty, there were countless solid objects.
There are colorful stars, and there are also bright and warm, like the brilliance of the sunset.
In this strange state, I can feel that I am losing myself, whether it is my body or anything, whatever belongs to me, it is constantly being withdrawn from my body by external forces.
The scenery is constantly changing, as if there is a strange force that is dragging me through this empty space.
I don't know when my consciousness hung high in the air, like an out-of-body state, looking condescendingly at everything below.
This is still the earth, and it is also the battlefield I was in before, Kunlun.
The ghost of Xiangjiang has begun to move down the mountain rapidly, and from my distance, he is almost a small black dot, but I can still recognize it very clearly, and I can clearly feel his familiar aura.
It seems that he still went down the mountain according to my wishes.
Think about it, if he doesn't listen to the last words of a dying man, I will die nine times out of ten......
But right now, I'm most concerned about the two strange creatures directly below me.
The War Between Old Creatures and the Ancients...... That's right...... It's war....... Definitely not an ordinary solo fight.......
I don't know what the black-robed king did, but in the body covered by countless black tentacles, there were many things that glowed white like raindrops, and they kept falling to the ground from above my head.
There was an aura of strangeness to those things, but they were incredibly powerful, somewhat similar to those of the creatures of the past......
"This is the power that the ancient gods bestowed on the black-robed king."
An unfamiliar voice suddenly sounded, listening to the voice like an old man, kind and kind, that inexplicable sense of intimacy, completely like his own elders talking.
"Who?!"
I looked left and right, but couldn't find the person who spoke.
"The stargate has been shattered, and the old plans have been destroyed....... The Black Robe King is the only old Japanese seed who has descended in this world, and if he wants to reforge the star gate, open the way to the starry sky, and lead the rest of the old Japanese species to come, it is the only one who can do it. ”
I couldn't see the person talking, but I felt like he was standing next to me, and he was talking and looking at me as if he were talking to an old friend.
"You should be clear that it can't lose."
I hummed, and seeing that he didn't introduce himself, I didn't bother anymore, nodded and said, "We can't lose either." ”
"That's right, we can't ...... either," he laughed slowly, "so I gave it an identity, and from now on, it is not a nameless creature, it is a ...... just like us."
"The Ancient."
Hearing his words, I also know where he came from...... The person who spoke...... No, it's this creature.
He should be the remnant of the ancients who lurk in the depths of the world.
In a way, he's supposed to be a strange creature like the Ancients, but for some reason, he feels like a living person to me.
At this time, with the advent of those bright stars, countless powers from the ancient gods crossed the sea of stars and descended into the afterlife, merging into the body of the black-robed king.
My intuition tells me that this method of giving power to others is very difficult, especially to get it to a world that rejects it.
With the effect of these powers, the body of the black-robed king continued to grow larger, at first its body was not comparable to the fire giant at all, but now, its body has increased to more than 100 meters......
From a distance, it looks like a alien monster covered with black tentacles.
"Still too small...... The independent will of this world seems to be gradually awakening...... The repulsion towards them is even greater......." The voice continued to talk to me, and his tone was full of exclamation: "If it had been a million years ago, its body would have been dozens of times ....... like it is now."
"If you want to say that, in the old days, do you have to fight in the atmosphere?" I asked amusedly.
When I heard this, the voice laughed too, but instead of thinking I was rude because of my words, I chatted like a friend.
"In the old days, our war was much more brutal than it is now, even I couldn't resist the power of the ancient gods, and after being killed by it, I only left this remnant......" He sighed, and his tone of voice was very helpless, there was no resentment towards the ancient gods, no anger, no fear, no emotions of this kind.
In a way, I think he's quite open-minded.
"How many of you are left?" I asked, "How many remnants are there like you?" ”
"There were still hundreds of ...... But now I'm the only one left. He smiled and said, "My clan has all passed on its strength, if it doesn't do this, it will be impossible for it to be an enemy of the Black Robe King, the difference in strength is too great." ”
As he said this, the dark sky suddenly lit up.
It was as if the sun had suddenly risen, and a blinding pillar of green light rose from the ground, enveloping the giant in an instant.
Countless ancient qi just swarmed out of the earth, constantly impacting its flesh......
"After turning into an afterimage, I spent most of my time sleeping, only waking up from time to time, and I would take time to come to the world to take a look......."
As he spoke, his voice getting lower and lower, he seemed a little lost.
"Before your civilization, there were other civilizations, but they were all extinct in the hands of their own people, and war was the culprit that destroyed them."
"Aren't we?" I laughed and said, "There were wars in the past few decades, and if I fought a few more times in the future, I guess it would be about the same." ”
When he heard this, he hummed and said, "That's right."
"But you're unlucky." He smiled and said, "When the previous civilizations existed, the creatures of the old days did not have the ability to invade this world, and those creatures that barely stayed in this world and fell into a deep sleep did not have the ability to wake up......"
"Holy shit..... Why did all the unfortunate things happen to us......" I shook my head with tears and laughter: "What do you think of the battle between the two below?" ”
Upon hearing my question, he was silent for a few seconds and said, "Evenly matched." ”
"The Old Gods are the biggest variable."
As he spoke, his tone became heavy, and he didn't mean to belittle the enemy, and analyzed it with me very seriously: "These low-level old gods are not to be worried, only that crazy and unaware of the so-called ancient gods is the most terrible enemy. ”
"How strong is it?" I couldn't help but ask, "Stronger than you ancients?" ”
"Much stronger." He sighed: "According to my observation, its power in the deep sky star sea is unimaginable, only when I come to this world, will I be suppressed by the strange power of this world, maybe...... I can't even exert the power of Issein. ”
At the same time, the giant shrouded in the green pillar of light became more and more massive, and soon it was about the same size as the black-robed king, and even taller.
Before I could react, with a loud bang, the giant entangled in green flames had already pounced, opened its bloody mouth, and bit down on the body of the black-robed king.
Seeing this scene, I only thought it was a little funny, and said that the power of these two things is already so strong, how can they fight like hooligans in the streets and alleys?
"It's a contest of power."
The remnant of the old man seemed to see through my thoughts, and explained with a smile.
"The so-called magic techniques of your later generations are just sideways, and we will do those things, but there will be a feeling of adding to the snake when we use them, and the truly powerful creatures like us are all fighting with the enemy with the help of qi and flesh......
At this moment, the battle situation below was extremely chaotic, and when they fought with each other, from a distance, it looked like two humanoid flames of different colors were burning.
"Sure enough, it's evenly matched...... But we have to win, right? He asked me suddenly.
"yes, it has to win." I nodded.
"Do you know why I didn't disappear with the rest of the clan?"
He smiled, and there was a hint of sell-in in his tone, but before I could respond, I noticed that he had grabbed my arm and fell straight from the sky.
"I was the straw that broke the camel's back and wanted to win this war...... This is the only way. ”
