Chapter 31: The Gate of Lightlessness
When the blinding white light dissipated and the outline of the world reappeared in Changle's vision, the surrounding Devil's Mountains were gone, replaced by a tranquil lake and meadow.
On the other side of the meadow, a delicate silver tower points straight into the blue sky.
Chang Le could also see the dwelling disguised as a low slope, and if he walked over, the moss-covered stone door should automatically rise.
However, this should not be the Beast Soul Space, because it is huge!
It has no gray and hazy borders that are difficult to approach, and can be seen from any direction, looking down on the vast rivers and mountains under your feet, with the blazing sun and white clouds overhead!
Chang Le stands at the top of a world at this moment!
The scenery around me is real and concrete, and my mind is calm and clear, as if I am in the real world
But another thing reminds Chang Le that this is still an illusion, because the pretty and peerless Catwoman is still in her arms!
She just jumped off the cliff with Chang Le in her arms, and now she is a little dazed, and her arms are still clasped around Chang Le.
Chang Le doesn't know whether to call her a "little girl" or a "little kitten", but she has both the beauty of a little girl and the cuteness of a kitten, her eyes are big and round, and a pair of cute cat ears make people can't help but want to pet.
But Chang Le didn't dare to touch her, his arms stiffened and drooped, deliberately keeping a distance from the other party's body. After all, there is a "Great Demon Venerable" in front of him, which is enough to stir up the bloody storm in the world, such an existence comparable to the Demon King, how can a mortal like him provoke?
Catwoman also looked at the surrounding scenery in a daze, and there were words in her mouth, but she couldn't hear what was being said, not like human language.
Changle gently broke free from Catwoman's embrace and walked towards the Silver Tower. The silver tower of the Beast Soul World was only open on one floor, and this place seemed to be unlimited, maybe the tower could also be climbed freely, and he couldn't help but be curious.
Catwoman exclaimed:
"Don't go, scared!"
As he spoke, he took a step forward and grabbed Chang Le's hand.
The cat is so timid when he arrives in a strange place, and the little girl's dependence on him is also like Xiaobai, which makes Chang Le reduce his awe, give birth to some inexplicable love, and can't help but smile:
"I'll go to the tower, and if you're alone and afraid, come with me. ”
The first floor of the tower is indeed the same as the beast soul space, but those central control screens and the like have not been activated, and they are quietly hidden in the dark.
And the moment he stepped on the second floor, Chang Le once again stumbled and fell into the void!
The beast soul space disappeared, and there was darkness all around, and his feet were completely suspended in the air, and he couldn't tell the difference between up and down, left and right.
Catwoman let out an "ah" and opened her arms again, hugging Chang Le tightly.
Chang Le's eyes widened, because this was another dream reappearance!
Large five-colored clouds slowly emerged in the darkness, the scene he had dreamed of since he was a child, and the picture became richer and more complex as he grew older.
In the past, he thought that the clouds were in the sky, but when he saw them this time, he found them at his feet!
The clouds were entangled and smeared layer by layer, slowly turning, so slow that they couldn't be noticed, but they must be spinning, otherwise they wouldn't have formed such a huge whirlpool!
The dark abyss at the center of the vortex is bigger and clearer than ever!
Chang Le knew very well in his heart that once he fell into that lightless darkness, he would definitely have no bones left, and even his soul would not be able to escape.
But he was powerless to resist the pull of the whirlpool, as if countless invisible wrists and feet reached out, wrapped him tightly around him, and fell sharply there.
The falling speed is getting faster and faster!
"Don't!" Catwoman screamed, turning to Chang Le's eyes, covering the vortex with her body, "Illusion, get out!"
This is the second time she has shouted "Illusion Escape", but Chang Le doesn't know how to get out at all, he only has one thought in his heart, since the lightless door has summoned him for seventeen years, it is better to simply plunge into it and see what it is!
"Go back!" Catwoman shouted heartbreakingly, pushing Changle hard with both hands.
After all, it was the Superior Great Demon Venerable, and this power was far more than happy to be able to resist, and he suddenly flew in reverse at an incredible speed, and the huge colorful cloud vortex gradually moved away.
But Catwoman also quickly fell into the endless abyss because of this push.
"Two ......" Catwoman had a calm expression, words in her mouth, and her slender figure was soon too far to see.
"What are you talking about?" Chang Le shouted vigorously, he couldn't understand what the other party was trying to say.
But Catwoman has turned into a shooting star, and a small bright spot rushes into the center of the whirlpool, exploding in the darkness, and the stars are flying and gradually disappearing.
At this moment, I don't know why, Chang Le suddenly felt sad, and he was almost about to cry, although he didn't know the other party, but this mood was extremely real.
"Come back!" Chang Le cried out in a heart-rending voice, and suddenly opened his eyes.
He was soft underneath him, covered with a quilt, and was obviously lying on the bed.
And his cheeks are still covered with fluffy warmth, that feeling is all too familiar, Xiaobai has been sleeping on his pillow for more than ten years, especially in winter, the kitten likes to use his face to keep warm.
Anita and Blue Moon were still standing next to the bed, and when the two saw Chang Le wake up, the expressions on their faces suddenly turned to joy.
"Master, you're awake! Great! Soul fusion has been successful!"
"How long did I sleep?"
"Soon, about ten minutes!"
Chang Le turned over and got up, there was no trace of fatigue in his body at the moment, and he was even full of strange strength.
But he is more concerned about Xiaobai, the catwoman just now made him unforgettable, this illusion will not be without reason, what kind of relationship does he have with Xiaobai's ancestors?
But Xiaobai slept soundly, no matter how he stroked and pushed, the cat was motionless.
Anita Intervention Tips:
"Let the kitten sleep, there's something wrong with its soul, I'm afraid it will sleep for a long time. The most important thing for the master now is to break through, don't waste the power brought by the fusion of the suit! It's best to let the beast soul cultivation break through to the next realm!"
What could be wrong with Xiaobai? Could it be related to the illusion just now?
But Anita couldn't answer, she only knew that Xiaobai's soul was undergoing drastic changes, and it was difficult to predict whether it would be a blessing or a curse, and she didn't know why.
Chang Le was silent, gently stroking Xiaobai's soft body until he confirmed that it was breathing calmly, and then left in confusion.
How to break through, Chang Le didn't know, he just came to the best place in the scenery and air, sat down quietly, and immersed himself in the soul world.
Now beyond his almost materialized soul there was a myriad of mist, so much that it was boundless, extending into the darkness of infinity.
"Master, please tell me, what do you see?" Anita's voice sounded directly in Changle's soul.
"A mass of souls, fog around, a lot, a lot. ”
"That's all the power of the King's Suit Soul Seal, please incorporate them into your soul. ”
Chang Le's heart moved, isn't the soul mark of the king's suit the mark of the demon king? Once integrated, he and the demon king are equal to one, and he will be the demon king or Chang Le in the future?
His hesitation only lasted for a few seconds, and now Chang Le has long since lost those scruples, as long as he can be strong, he can go back to rescue his parents and Alan immediately, and in the future, he can go to heaven and earth to retrieve the soul of Sister Xue Ying, he is not even afraid of death, what about becoming a demon king?
Then his soul began to vibrate and spin, trying to absorb the fog around him.
At first, the progress was slow, but as the soul strengthened, the volume also increased, and the adsorption speed increased geometrically over time!
Anita reminded again:
"The suit is too powerful, and if the adsorption is complete, you will definitely be able to advance to the ranks. At that time, your soul world will manifest and become a familiar scene, and the appearance of the scenery determines the pattern of your soul, and it is also related to the upper limit of future development!"
So, which soul realm is the highest?
Anita can't give an exact concept, the spirit world is just a manifestation of the individual's mentality, not an actual existence, so they are also ever-changing.
Depending on what is known, it may be a colorful garden or a brook in the woods, the former representing the love of life, the latter clearly tranquil and accessible, and if it is a vast land, it may represent the world.
If the spirit world is your home, it is likely to reflect that you have no ambition and no intention to make progress, but you will be very responsible for your family.
"According to my temperament, it should be a garden, right?"
Changle was both confused and curious about this, and continued to focus on absorbing the power of the King's Suit.
After about half an hour, the speed of fusion began to surpass Chang Le's control, and his soul was already too large in size, and it expanded faster and faster, and the whole world became unstable, vibrating, roaring, and then exploding suddenly!
"Ahh
But after a while, he found that he was still in the spirit world, but the cloud-like scene before had disappeared, and his eyes quickly darkened, and then bright spots gradually flashed one after another, until a vast starry sky was reflected!
"What is this?" Chang Le laughed, "densely like stars, and fog, with bright spots...... What does this mean?"
Anita hesitated and replied:
"According to your description, it is the starry sky, the ...... of the universe"
"They are all stars in the sky. Chang Le laughed, "There is nothing tangible that means that I am so ambitious?"
"It's possible, but it may also indicate that the master will step into the sea of stars in the future. ”
"Sea of Stars, that's not an ambition, it's because I've always fantasized that if I could take the stars off and give them to Alain, it would save her money and make her happy. What does this mean? It just means that I'm stingy......!
Chang Le smiled and stood up, the soul world changed as he wished, and the mist between the stars condensed and transformed, gradually changing into a wolf shape with his head raised and roaring in the sky.
This is the second-order beast soul, the "Blue Wolf Soul".
The knowledge related to this also appeared at the same time, allowing Chang Le to quickly understand the characteristics of the new beast soul.
Unlike the Cunning Rabbit's Soul, which is good at detecting, dodging, and escaping, the Wolf Soul is a comprehensive combat form that comprehensively improves attack and defense, and although its agility is much worse than that of the Cunning Rabbit, it is also far stronger than usual.
And the biggest feature of the wolf soul is to increase durability. Whether it is physical energy, or fighting energy or magic that Chang Le has not yet mastered, the consumption rate will be reduced by half, which is equivalent to doubling the ability to continue fighting, or the endurance of sleeplessness.
There is also a stamina bonus that is not helpful in battle, but it is estimated to be beneficial to the couple's relationship.
In addition, similar to the cunning rabbit's hearing, the blue wolf also has a sensory enhancement ability, which is the sense of smell.
The "Wolf Smell" improves the sense of smell by about a thousand times, and can not only detect faint odors, but also be able to distinguish the difference between smells.
Now for Chang Le, even if the other party hides in the grass thousands of kilometers away and does not make the slightest sound, as long as it is not a strong headwind, he can still detect the ambush.
The breath exhaled from the enemy's lungs, the smell emanating from the surface of the body, are all signals that can be perceived.
Even if the enemy's strength is much higher than Chang Le, he can prevent his "breath" from being sensed by Chang Le, and he can't stop himself from emitting "smell", which is the strongest point of "Blue Wolf Smell".
Chang Le tried to punch out, and from the speed and wind sound, the strength increased several times compared to before, and his ordinary attacks finally had the strength equivalent to that of a monk, and the bonus of bone hardness and body resistance can also be similar to the effect of a second-order monk's fighting energy.
Therefore, as long as the current Changle opens the wolf soul, he already has the power of a lion and tiger, and his ordinary attack and defense are equivalent to a level 1 monk, so he doesn't have to use tricks like he did at the beginning, and he doesn't need skills such as "bursting kicks" to fight with Blue Moon head-on.
Blue Moon also upgraded quickly in the beast soul space, and now he is a level 3 monk, and his strength is still stronger than Chang Le, but Chang Le is naturally good at fighting skills, which is enough to make up for this gap.
In short, the wolf soul is worthy of being a second-order beast soul, and it satisfies Chang Le in every way, and the only thing that makes people speechless is its supporting special skills.
There are two special skills: Bloodthirsty Bite and Werewolf Transformation.
As the name suggests, Bloodthirsty Bite is to bite an enemy with its mouth, which cools down for up to half an hour, and the effect is to cause bleeding wounds, and can use the blood of enemies to heal its own injuries.
It sounds useful, but it's a pity that if the other party is a person like Taylor, let Changle bite it with his mouth, I'm afraid he will immediately feel nauseous and vomiting.
Werewolf Transformation is extremely powerful, increasing its size and attack power by up to 10 times, with no cooldown period and no limit on its duration.
But this trick can only be used at night, and the increase in strength depends on the shape of the moon, the peak reaches when the moon is full, and there is no power under the waning moon.
Whether it is these experiences or feelings, Chang Le completes them all in walking, because now he has a lot of things to do, and he doesn't want to delay for a moment.
From the beginning of the Beast Soul Advancement, there was a "boom" vibration from the gray edge of the Beast Soul space, and this small space was getting bigger!
Chang Le was not surprised, because he had already known in the illusion that the beast soul space originally belonged to a vast world, and if the gray edge was regarded as a fence, this place was only a small piece "occupied" from the magnificent rivers and mountains.
Now that his beast soul realm has risen to the second order, his mastery of this space is stronger, the "fence" can expand outward, and the base can open more functional modules.
One of the most important features is the hibernation pod that Anita previewed!
