Chapter 5: The Heart of the Holy Dragon
At this moment, the Grimace Mask Man had the intention of returning to the dungeon hall, but he was never able to get out.
Although he succeeded in luring away the Purple Gold Retriever Beast, he was accidentally hit hard by the Purple Gold Retriever Beast's claws. The mana of the whole body is now extremely unstable, and a breath of stuffiness is held in the chest, and it is difficult to cast large-scale and lethal spells, so it can only be pressed and beaten while escaping, falling into a stalemate, and there are words of suffering.
The three stone beasts on the altar of the bluestone platform raised their heads to the sky and roared, bursting out with the last salute of their lives, injecting the life energy of their whole bodies into the body of a stone dragon.
The three stone statues and beasts maintained a posture of looking up to the sky and roaring until the end, and returned into stone statues inch by inch from beginning to end. A gust of wind blew, and the stone statue turned into dust in the breeze and disappeared.
The stone dragon that had obtained the essence of life began to squirm slowly, as if it had come to life. The green tendons all over the body burst out, and pieces of pale blue dragon scales burst from the stone platform, flying upwards along the black stone pillar, turning into a pale blue dragon.
The dragon flew on the altar of the bluestone platform, the broken dragon scales and broken dragon horns on its body were faintly visible, and the sharp dragon claws tightly grasped the four cold starry sky chains.
Looking back at the position of the three stone beasts, a feeling of sadness arose spontaneously, and he was silent for a long time.
Canglong lowered his head slightly, as if muttering to himself, "Old friends, I won't let you down, you go first on the Huangquan Road." When the old dragon seals this evil undead monument, he will come immediately. ”
It suddenly raised its head, glanced at the dragon-shaped jade pendant on Layton's body, and said, "Boy, you have already performed the Dark Necromantic Ritual, and once the ritual starts, it will not stop until you become an undead. Now there is only one way to save you, and that is to activate the dragon-shaped jade pendant on your body, which is a sealed holy dragon heart. ”
Leighton still has a great revenge to be avenged, how can he fall here and live forever to be enslaved by darkness, but as long as there is a glimmer of life, he will fight desperately.
It's just that he is in the erosion and transformation of the qi of death, his soul is gradually blackened, and his body is even more difficult to move, and he said with difficulty: "How to activate."
"Swallow it. ”
Layton didn't hesitate. With all his strength, he struggled to support it with the remaining willpower, and swallowed the dragon-shaped jade pendant on his chest into his mouth.
The dragon-shaped jade pendant was like a trickling warm current, automatically sliding into Rayton's belly.
Looking at Leighton's strong will to survive, Canglong said to himself with relief: "I didn't see the wrong person, the destruction of the soul can be persevered with willpower, and it is worthy of the trust of the Holy Dragon's Heart." ”
Canglong's body immediately erupted with a chilling and domineering aura, the dragon's beard was windless, Cangsang's huge body unfolded, and the power of Long Yuan encouraged the starry sky chains on his body to hunt, and quickly swam to the black stone tablet. With all his strength, he waved the starry sky chains on his body and condensed them into a thick starry sky chain, tightly binding the black stone tablet, and shooting into Layton's mind from afar.
An obscure dragon language sounded. It sounded very rusty and awkward to Layton, but it had a special charm, and with the sound of the voice, Layton's whole heart was soothed, and even the pain in his body gradually disappeared.
Canglong shouted abruptly: "Holy Dragon Heart, if you don't wake up at this time, when will you wait." ”
The dragon-shaped jade pendant in Leiton's abdomen felt the dragon language call of the dragon and the rich death aura on the black stone tablet.
Suddenly, it was full of light, turning into a radiant dragon soul and rushing towards the black stone tablet. A stream of pure life force erupted and splashed down on the black stele, sealing the black stele into Layton's mind with the dragon.
The Heart of the Holy Dragon turned into a heart, and a steady stream of life energy flowed into the blood veins of Layton's body.
Before, Leighton's soul had already been tormented by the black mist, but now it was all gradually smoothed by the Holy Dragon's Heart at the heart, like a milk swallow returning to its nest, and the soul was reunited and became more solid.
The black stele was still trying to break through the seal laid by the Blue Dragon and the Holy Dragon's Heart.
At this moment, the two most extreme forces in the world are fighting in Leighton's body, the vast life force and the endless death qi. The breath of death is like a sharp cavalry, attacking again and again, trying to break through the seal of the power of life, and the force of life is like a calm mountain, standing still like a mountain in the wind and rain, firmly binding the breath of death.
Time passed slowly, and the battle between the breath of death and the power of life was still going on.
Layton's body is in a tentative equilibrium: part of the life force is constantly recovering from the wounds on the body, nourishing the body over and over again, and part of the death breath is slowly transforming the body, and the dark necromancy ritual is still slowly going on.
One day, two days......
In the end, Canglong still exhausted all his life force, looked down at Layton, and said in a low voice: "I have successfully sealed the Immortal Tablet, I hope you can treat the Holy Dragon's Heart well in the future." I'm so tired, old friends, I'm here to accompany you. Then it rose to the sky, turning into a stone statue and drifting away in the wind.
The sky was low, the clouds were thick, and a light rain was falling, as if mourning the passing of the dragon.
The dragon-shaped jade pendant continuously provided energy for the starry sky chain, slowly turning from light to a dim gray ball, gradually disappearing in the heart of Layton.
Three days later, in the silent dungeon hall, a sudden wind howled, and faint ghostly fire drifted around with the wind.
On the walls of the main hall, a humanoid shadow gradually emerged, infinitely stretched by the yin wind, looking so hideous and terrifying.
"Ah......h
The shadow in the hall slowly stood up, and looked down at the dark and dry skin on his body, and the dark dead air circulating under the skin was clearly visible. He stretched out his hand and scrutinized it, like a dry branch that had lost its moisture, leaving only strands of rough fibers. I touched my face with that unnatural hand, there was no temperature, and I looked like a cold dry corpse.
Now, he could feel that his whole body was in a dry and stiff state, and the flesh in his body had long since lost its vitality. The thoughts are a little wild and uncontrollable, and a desire to devour the living is sprouted.
The situation in front of him was unbelievable, and he still managed to escape the Dark Necromancy Ritual after all, and was corrupted and turned into an undead.
Just when Layton was desperate,
"Knock-knock-knock-"
There was a low heartbeat in his chest, which caught Layton's attention. He stroked his withered palm to his heart, feeling the sound of his heartbeat.
Like the sound of the waves of the sea, it washes again and again, and each time it spews out a large amount of water of life, circulating throughout the body. Gradually, Layton could feel the feeling of life blooming in his body again, and the dried flesh and blood on his body began to become full and full of vitality after being watered by the water of life. The skin begins to become sleek and elastic under the watering of the water of life. At this moment, Leighton's appearance changed from a withered undead to a living human again.
Unbeknownst to Leighton, after the transformation of the Black Stone Tablet and the Heart of the Holy Dragon, he has become a human with the body of the undead, and will never tire or know hunger.
At this moment, even the top magicians could not explain this phenomenon when they saw this scene.
Although he didn't understand what was happening, Layton was still a little surprised and happy when his body returned to its human state.
Scenes from the previous experience gradually came to mind, and Layton finally remembered.
Layton doesn't know what his mood should be now, the dragon-shaped jade pendant on his chest is a token that he has been with since he was picked up by the old man fifteen years ago, and it is also a token that he has always thought was looking for his biological parents. I would never have thought that this was actually a sealed Holy Dragon Heart. At the last moment, it was the four beasts who saved themselves by activating the Holy Dragon's Heart through sacrifice.
Thinking of the fearless spirit of the four stone beasts who sacrificed themselves, Layton thanked him from the bottom of his heart, and said to himself: "Don't worry, I will not live up to your expectations and treat the Heart of the Holy Dragon kindly." ”
However, who are his biological parents, why did he leave a sealed Holy Dragon Heart, and the mysterious background still puzzles him.
"If you can't figure it out, you don't want to. Don't worry, old man, since God has asked me to live again, I will definitely avenge you. Whether it's the Dark Samurai or the Ghost-Face Mask Man, I won't let them go. Thinking of the old man's tragic death, Layton clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.
Just looking at himself who had become an undead, Layton didn't know what to do next.
"It's really a good skin. An unknown mysterious voice came.
