Chapter 20: The Primordial Dragon Body (1)
When Arley came to his senses, he found himself lying on the bed in the bedroom of the Doge's Palace, with only a shirt and shorts on his body, a button on his chest that had been unbuttoned, and the sun shining on his skin with a warm touch. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
The time on the clock refers to noon, when the sun is shining hot, which is a rare sunny day. Celtic had two days of sunny days, and it seemed that this autumn would be a good oneβhe thought.
At this time, Charlene was sitting by the floor-to-ceiling window, her short hair hanging down and half-hiding her beauty, she was looking down to read a thick brown book, her long white legs resting directly on the windowsill, and her skin was covered with a soft light under the sun.
Artoria sat on the floor, carrying a ball about her head in her arms, and after a while, she crawled to the biscuit box to get a snack, and when she was done, she climbed on the trampoline and began to make further noise.
"Am I asleep?"
The black-haired knight straightened up in surprise, and then touched his forehead, feeling unreal.
Since he practiced to the eight-deed limit, his energy is already strong and he doesn't need to sleep, and he hasn't closed his eyes once in a few months, so he still won't get tired. But yesterday...... After seeing the fourth world, the energy was actually consumed so much.
"yes, when I went to see you yesterday, you guy was sleeping unconscious on your desk. It's heavy and hard to move, and it's really troublesome. The green-haired girl stared at the pages of the book and said in a lazy and complaining tone.
"Bothering you to carry me to the bedroom yourself. β
The black-haired knight flashed behind Charlene, hugged her slender waist from behind, and kissed her delicate side face:
"I'm truly unforgivable. β
"If only you knew!"
Charlene's face was flushed, she stretched out her claws and scratched behind her, and after grabbing five electric sparks with satisfaction, she immediately took off her lady's disguise, raised her eyebrows and showed a suspicious expression:
"Why are you so tired that you haven't regained consciousness until now, are you messing around behind my back?"
"How many people do I have to get tired to be like that......"
Yare let go of the green-haired girl's slender waist and gently tapped her skull from above:
"Don't think about it all day, yesterday I just felt a new world when I was studying the perfect body, and I was overused mentally like that. β
"A new world?"
Charlene tilted her head and pricked up her ears curiously, like a cat that saw a ball of yarn.
"Let's put it simply. β
The black-haired knight pointed his finger to the page in her arms, ignored everything related to Melly, and said directly: "Look at this paper, assuming its thickness is zero, then everything on this paper is exposed to our eyes." β
"yes. The green-haired girl nodded vigorously.
"Then the world I came into contact with yesterday by accident is equivalent to our relationship with paper compared to the world we live in. From the perspective of that world, our appearance and inwardness are exposed to it side by side...... If length, width, and height make up our world, then there is an extra line called time in this world, so I call it the Fourth World. β
Yalei patiently explained to her, and was ready for the other party to treat his words as nonsense, but Charlene actually had an understanding expression on her face, and gently spit out two syllables:
"Netherworld. β
"What!?" this time it was his turn to prick up his ears.
"I mean, the world you are talking about is very close to the netherworld that Grandpa said before. The green-haired girl tightened her eyebrows and said with a serious face.
"Netherworld...... Isn't the Netherworld where the real body is? The black-haired knight had a vague feeling that he had discovered something extremely important.
"Yes, Grandpa said that there, everything will be transformed, into something that we simply cannot understand, and history all happened at the same time and place. It was only when he was reincarnated that he came into contact with the Netherworld, and then he received the power of the Heavenly Punishment God. β
After Charlene finished speaking, her eyes flickered, and she looked at him worriedly:
"Although I don't know how you suddenly came into contact with the Netherworld, you must be careful, grandpa said that it is the source of knight's power, and it is also the most dangerous place. The reincarnation of the Knight of the End came into contact with the Netherworld, all under multiple protections, and the process was very dangerous. β
After hearing this, Yalei fell silent, and after a moment, he said calmly:
"I understand...... But there is a secret to the perfect body. β
The green-haired girl lowered her head when she heard this, and she didn't speak anymore, she knew how much a perfect body was for the black-haired knight.
......
In the evening, Areley finds Melly and asks her to cast a spell on her next "eternal exile".
However, the doll refused his request on the grounds of lack of strength, and told the black-haired knight that only a large number of petals of seven-colored flowers could restore his mana at present.
Seven-colored flowers, such a thing, Yalei knows, because of its own ability to store magical power, it is often used as a residence by some goblins with mana. Therefore, mortals who can't see goblins often mistake it for a flower that can grant their wishes, when in fact it is the goblins that grant their wishes, not the flower itself.
This flower is an important alchemical material for mages, and it is expensive, but fortunately, it can be cultivated artificially at the moment.
What could be bought was not difficult for the black-haired knight to obtain, so he signed an order directly, and soon, a truckload of seven-colored flowers was loaded and transported to the Celtic Governor's Palace.
After stuffing Melly in the petals of the seven-colored flower and soaking it for three days, she began to react, and once again performed "Eternal Exile" as Yalei requested.
Knowing that there might be danger in observing the Netherworld, the black-haired knight took the spell egg to a dense forest and stopped, only to crush the egg shell and swallow the snake in one bite.
"As long as I can train to be perfect and fulfill Mr. Casper's ideals, no matter how many risks I have, I must bear them. Yalei chewed up the black snake and let the mana spread from his body.
In an instant, the entire dense forest suddenly went black, and everything froze and stood still.
Fallen leaves floating in mid-air, dotted dandelions floating slightly.
The corners of the clothes that have just been blown up by the wind and have not yet fallen, the birds that are catching insects on the branches, and a drop of resin that has not yet solidified and slowly slides down. Everything is as if the pause button has been pressed, and everything freezes and comes to a standstill.
All the sounds broke into small chirps, which quickly disappeared, and the whole world was also broken into countless lines, in the form of countless three-dimensional spaces juxtaposed, reappearing in front of his eyes.
"If the Fourth World I see is really the Netherworld that Charlene is talking about, then ...... Come out. β
Yalei focused his consciousness on his stargate, slowly drawing out the reincarnated egg that should have been deep in his consciousness, and condensing it into the Fourth World as he now observed.
In his consciousness, the Demon God's Egg should have been a black egg with the face of the Dreaded Demon King crisscrossed on its surface.
And as the black-haired knight projected it into the Fourth World, with an indescribable sense of emptiness, the entire Fourth World actually felt turbulent.
In the Fourth World, countless reincarnated eggs presented side by side actually formed a twisted and rotating serpentine image in countless three-dimensional spaces. He could recognize the snake's tail as himself, and the central part of the snake was the different forms of the Dreaded Demon King's demon body, large and small, and even close to a woman's body.
And in the deepest part...... The head of the snake......
There was an extremely wide sense of depth there, and Yalei couldn't see anything clearly, but there was an inexplicable pressure in the space that made him feel a little breathless, as if he would suffocate to death at any moment.
"The Reincarnated Egg reacts here, so the Fourth World is indeed the Netherworld...... Now that the verification has been completed, let's quickly put away the reincarnated egg. β
Just as he was about to retrieve the reincarnated egg, a huge force suddenly spread out from the netherworld.
The "Great Snake" formed by the juxtaposition of countless three-dimensional spaces changed abruptly, and a blazing light emerged from it, and at the same time, an irresistible suction force was born, pulling the consciousness of the black-haired knight and forcing him to continue watching.
Buzz!
There was a loud roar from the depths of consciousness.
In the depths of the light of the explosion, countless parallel vertical pupils opened one after another, and the entire Fourth World oozed a dazzling color of blood, and every inch of space seemed to be stained red with blood.
Countless wailing dragon roars suddenly sounded from the space, and the "world" was brutally squeezed away, and a terrifying monster so huge that there was no end in sight, accompanied by a roar one after another, drilled out of the snake's tail.
It was an indescribably large dark dragon with seven hideous dragon heads of various sizes growing around its neck, one of which was a physical entity, and the rest were images of rebirth from severed limbs.
Countless poisonous fires of evil burned into its eyes, darkness and evil blended and overlapped into huge scales, and a swirling black and deep light flowed on the surface. The terrifying body spread endlessly through the void, stretching into endless darkness.
The moment they looked at each other, an indescribable burning heat and negative consciousness poured into Are's eyes like a tidal wave, and fear, destruction, hatred, lies, bitterness, pain, sin, and an infinite amount of dark emotions overwhelmed his consciousness.
"Ahhhh
The black-haired knight slammed his head, his eyes, mouth, nostrils, and ears all spewed blood-like flames.
Countless blood vessels twisted and floated wildly on his face, musculoskeletal growth and expansion like inflation, a row of sharp barbs sprouted on his back, and countless fine pitch-black scale armor squeezed through his skin, causing him to quickly shed his human form.
Thick to the point of almost crystalline blood, covering the entire dense forest.
Bang!
The blood light exploded in an instant, and a huge amount of dark energy gushed out from it, and the phantom shadows of the seven demon dragons rose from the ground, and the surrounding invisible fluctuations spread like raging waves.
The entire dense forest was instantly razed to the ground, and countless black qi rolled over it, and after sweeping it, only the ground was left with eroded and melted black pottery.
Boom!
The sky over the forest sea suddenly darkened, and the clouds spread from all directions, completely covering the entire sky into pitch black. The earth seemed to be destroyed, cracking countless abyss-like openings, and black lightning continued to sweep and flutter.
"Don't you think about it!"
"Don't think!"
"I am the master of the body!"
In the depths of the blood light where countless roars and roars spread, the bodies of the seven demon dragons changed, shrinking into a black-haired and black-eyed human body for a while, growing scale barbs all over the body for a while, and expanding back into dragon form for a while.
"Ahh
With a huge roar, the seven demon dragons changed several times, and finally collapsed and collapsed with a long roar, shrinking and reverting to a human form covered in blood and flames. The whole body smashed on the ground, and his hands were like heavy hammers, smashing the ground into the sink and collapse.
Pain!
It hurts like never before!
The pain of endless despair as if it were eternal!
Yalei roared wildly, his voice was completely covered by the thunder shock, his fists kept hammering the ground, the muscles of his whole body were twitching and twisting wildly, and the sweat was burned into steam by the demon fire as soon as he seeped out of his body.
He had never felt such cruel pain, even the torture of being tortured by illusions for several years when he first entered the apotheosis was not comparable to the hundredth of the pain of being burned by demonic fire.
It's better to live than to die!
The black-haired knight could feel every cell of himself wailing in pain in the scorching of the demonic fire. At the same time, seven different dark emotions washed over his will like a tidal wave, trying to reincarnate the seven demon dragons.
I don't know how long it took.
The tremors of the earth were becoming more and more frequent, and Arei could no longer better vent his pain, so he could only distract himself from his thoughts.
Charlene was right...... The Fourth World I saw was indeed the Netherworld, which existed at a higher level and could only be observed in a state of near-standstill in time.
I see...... The time of the netherworld is just an axis, a thread, and has no meaning, so birth and death can also be juxtaposed at the same time, or ...... The great beings who have entered the Fourth World, and there is no concept of birth and disappearance, is this the secret of the eternal immortality of all time and space!?"
"So...... The dragon I observed was the original prototype of the Lord of Fear, or was it actually one of the dragon's heads?"
In the midst of extreme pain, the black-haired knight's spirit was also extremely concentrated, and he quickly figured out what had happened to him. Finally, he slammed his fists into the ground, and the ground in a radius of nearly a thousand yards shook and turned over from the bottom up.
In the smoke and dust, Yalei's pupils lit up with two bloody lights, and the space illuminated seemed to be stained red with blood.
"Seven Demons in One...... Primordial Dragon Body!"
He gritted his teeth and snarled and spat out a syllable.
