Chapter 655: The Boundary Between Life and Death

In the whole hundred years since she went back to the past, Xiao Lan had done a lot of things, and she didn't waste the time she had gained at all.

In the dark Moriath Mine, he spent ten years fully absorbing the knowledge he had gained from Empress Galadriel, and completed the research of rune sequences including the Bracelet of Death, the Golden Sutra of the Sun, the Cup of Holy Blood and other treasures, and became a master who can create a magic ring and various rune equipment that is only a foot away from the grandmaster, and the simulation scene of the Nightmare Mirror is the best experimental platform;

Then, he left Moria and entered the Fagon Forest, disguised as a druid and befriended the leader of the treants, Treehu, and began to listen slowly to the story of the Treants, who had been going on for thousands of years since antiquity and even older than the elves, and he had spent thirty years in the long river of history;

After obtaining the achievement of "Learning from History" and getting closer to the roots of the world, he bid farewell to Shuhu and came to the Dwarven Kingdom Lonely Mountain Iruba, witnessed the death of the dragon Smaug and the outbreak of the battle of the Five Armies, did not interfere with anything but took the soul of the Smaug dragon under the black arrow of Cistorebad, and entered the Doomsday Volcano before Sauron returned to Mordor to rebuild the fortress of Barado, relying on the soul stone of the fire demon to transform into a semi-elemental form and assimilate with magma, and forged the Ring of Chaos in the flames of the Doomsday Volcano. The Ring of Dragon Flame, the Ring of Domination, and the Nine Rings of the Heroic Spirit and the corresponding weapons, Pandora also completed the transformation mode conversion of kinetic weapons, fighters, Lancelot mechas, etc. with the Ring of Dragon Flame, and the summoned legion of Kira, who obtained the Ring of Domination, was also completed;

On the premise of not changing history, he prepared so carefully. It was this caution that brought about the future of Sauron's demise.

But at the same time, it is also the beginning of the catastrophe......

After briefly describing everything he had done in the Lord of the Rings World, Xiao Lan, who was still on Flora's lap, closed his eyes and sighed. “…… Even I can't remember exactly when it started, and I felt a change in my heart. ”

"As I have experienced before, the void is slowly rising from the depths to the surface, allowing me to gradually return to the state where I first awakened the nothingness, and the feelings gradually faded and replaced by emptiness and indifference.

If this process is allowed to continue, sooner or later the void will reach a point where it cannot be suppressed.

I felt it, and tried to reseal it as I had done before. And then I finally realized in hindsight that my human life was coming to an end.

Without having time to stop the potion and use it with time travel, I suppressed my desire and worked diligently for a hundred years, and the choice that was supposed to bring happiness became half of my lifeline. Too much thought and too much entanglement has led to the decay of the soul with the knowledge of the short-lived species, and after discovering this problem, I still can't resist the erosion of time......"

“…… Because it is absolutely impossible to give up the hope that you have woven for the future. Flora muttered. Then she raised one of her hands. The Ring of Chaos is shining.

This is a gift from Xiao Lan, and it is also a witness to the erosion of time.

"Fool." With a soft sigh of sadness, the female knight put down her white palm and silently stroked the man's child-like face.

Who would have thought that under this young face, the intellect belonging to human beings is already far away?

Just feeling the sadness surging in the female knight's heart for a while, Xiao Lan chuckled indifferently, as if all this was just a passing moment. It's simply not a matter of concern.

"Why worry? If it were useful to worry, there wouldn't be so much sorrow in the world. This made Flora's head bow even deeper. More silent and unwilling to see the end.

When the intellect gradually decays, what will happen to people?

The female knight didn't know about the others, but she knew the state of the demon quite well.

When the "human" component of "Xiao Lan" gradually decays and disappears, the element of "nothingness" will rise to the surface and become absolutely dominant, as if it is automatically liberating nothingness uncontrollably.

Originally, although Xiao Lan only needed to use the power of nothingness, his existence itself would be closer to nothingness.

But in principle, it is not a slow accumulation, but a sudden increase in the limit one day, and if the power of nothingness is used excessively, the will of "man" cannot restrain the loss of control of nothingness, and he may be completely liberated into a "god" at once.

However, Xiao Lan's will is so strong, strong enough to be able to suppress nothingness even when he has surpassed the limit and is close to full awakening, and the will that belongs to human beings is awake and rational, rather than being pushed directly through the limit by the feeling that is more exciting than orgasm, and he exerts the power of nothingness to the maximum in this semi-awakened posture in the battle.

“…… But this time, it's no longer a matter of will! Flora finally said this.

When the composition of human beings gradually decays with the erosion of time, although Xiao Lan can still rely on his will to absolutely suppress nothingness, but the boundary of nothingness is growing with the disappearance of "people", once the boundary is broken, it is really impossible to recover it no matter what-

"That's why I have to make a decision." Xiao Lan replied softly, without the slightest confusion in her open eyes, "If you can't cross the boundary between life and death, and become immortal in the simple sense, "I" will have no choice but to die in nothingness, leaving only a god with the body and memory of "Xiao Lan" but not any intellect, just like the original king of death and becoming a part of the laws of the universe."

And since sooner or later it will perish, of course I have to choose my own way. If I can break through and find new life in nothingness, I can transcend the limits of life and death and become truly immortal......"

"But honestly, there's not even a 1 in 10,000 chance of success." He finally smiled bitterly, then stared into the void and whispered, "What I need now is not that even if there is a one-in-ten thousand possibility, I can definitely grasp and realize, but to find my own possibility in the impossible, and open up a future that only belongs to me and will inevitably succeed...... Ah, that's a big challenge. ”

Flora finally said the shortest and least thought-provoking words.

"I will be with you until the end of the world...... So, don't die. ”

Xiao Lan smiled, very soft, very gentle, very warm smile. He felt that he had never smiled like this, as if he was not smiling, but a very gentle and warm flower with his face.

When this life is about to come to an end, as if the whole world is alone in the loneliness, I can hear someone very sincere and determined to say such a sentence to myself, and the warmth that seeps out from the deepest part of my heart is indeed extremely comfortable.

Yes, how could he want to die, how could he be willing to disappear.

Because death is so lonely and worthless.

Death is so dark that it's creepy.

Death is more terrible than anything else!

"I don't want to fall into there again, I don't want to die like this!"

This was the end, and neither of them said anything more, because everything had been communicated by heart, but they also did not do anything superfluous, just snuggled up and enjoyed what might be the final peace and serenity, and then ...... The next day arrived.

Before the door that was about to draw the final boundary, Xiao Lan looked at Flora, who was following her, and asked one last question.

"Don't you regret it? If you stay, you may be able to resurrect me with the Golden Sutra of the Sun. ”

"I'm sorry about that, I've already decided." The female knight smiled brightly, "Even if the world forgets you, I will always remember you...... Live with you, die with you. ”

As for the Golden Sutra of the Sun, will it really be useful?

So Xiao Lan also smiled, gently took Flora's hand, and he reached out and pushed open the door to the main god space.

- Now that you've made your choice, there's no need to wonder! (To be continued......)
