The volcano is very high, with a corona-like gray-white platform in the middle, and when you look at the platform from the outside, there seems to be a stone pillar that glows blue light.

It's just that the platform is surrounded by a black encirclement composed of countless black bugs, which is constantly flying around the platform.

Lin Xin tried several times, and wanted to go up to take a look, but he was blocked back by an invisible huge force.

This place was too mysterious and weird, and he didn't dare to attack it head-on to see if he could break the encirclement. I had to give up.

Continuing to climb up the stone steps, he increased his speed, and after about ten minutes, he finally reached the top of the volcano.

At the top of the mountain is a large bowl-shaped crater. He just stood on the edge, as inconspicuous as an ant in the red light, like countless stones on the side.

Walking around the crater, I saw some dried corpses, some of them lying on their sides on the ground, letting themselves smoke from the hot ground, but laughing incomprehensibly.

Some climbed up from another stone step, and then jumped directly towards the volcano without looking at Lin Xin, who was close at hand.

Others knelt on the ground, covering their faces sadly and crying, but they couldn't see the slightest tears flowing down.

After seeing too much, Lin Xin didn't pay much attention to these dry corpses, and on the edge of the red and dazzling crater, there was a small piece of ancient dilapidated building surrounded by a wall, which seemed to be a courtyard originally.

The rocks inside are stitched together by solidified magma to form a single body.

Curiously, he walked into the small courtyard, where gray-black spiky vines were everywhere.

"Hehehehehe"

Suddenly, a somewhat nervous man's voice floated out of the corner of the courtyard.

"Another newcomer trying to save himself"

Lin Xin was stunned for a moment, he thought he was another sane corpse man when he heard the laughter, but he didn't expect the other party to actually say ghost words.

Following the direction from which the voice came from, he quickly found the man's location.

Behind one of the highest broken walls in the courtyard. Between the cluttered stones, a large black shadow in the shape of a human figure was floating.

The black shadow floated like this, like a human in a robe, but it was more than four meters high, the same level as the broken wall.

His hem seemed to be devouring and absorbing the black particles of the void around him all the time to replenish himself.

No facial features are visible throughout its entire body. Any detail, as if a person is reflected on the wall by the light of the fire, is somewhat distorted, only the outline.

Lin Xin stood in front of him and looked up at him.

"Who are you?" he asked in the same ghostly voice.

"Me?" the humanoid shadow seemed to hear something surprising and funny, "You ask, who am I??"

He chuckled lowly.

"I, like you, am just a desperate person who came here in search of salvation"

"Desperate?" Lin Xin finally found a guy who was sane here, and immediately sorted out a large number of questions in his mind. I'm going to figure it all out.

"Yes," replied the Shadow in a low voice, "we call all those who come here with the last shred of hope for salvation despair"

"I was told that if I found this place, I would get a way out of the hallucination. Lin Xin directly asked his purpose this time.

"Hehehe

"Another loser, a loser, a lie from a loser, all take this place as the last hope"

"Isn't it?" Lin Xin's heart was cold, and his voice began to be gloomy.

"No?" the humanoid shadow suddenly fell silent, "No, no, no, no, of course, of course!"

"So, how can you tell me?" Lin Xin said in a low voice. Everything here made him feel extremely weird. Unlike other countries that travel through the Hidden Mansion, it seems that there is despair everywhere. Dead air, and restless.

"No, I don't need anything" The black shadow leaned down, his head close to Lin Xin, even though it was just a black shadow shaped like a head. But Lin Xin could still feel that he seemed to be looking at himself carefully.

"Tell me your name. The shadow whispered in a murmuring voice, "I'm going to tell you quietly." Just tell you one person," he whispered.

"Safflower. Lin Xin said casually.

"Red flower? I, it's that Shura, I've forgotten how many years I've been here, it's been too long, it's been too long, it's been so long that my memory has problems, I'm not sure, if my method still works, but you can try" The black shadow used a sweet, hoarse voice. But it gave people a slimy voice and said softly.

"What method?" Novice Lin held the safflower sword all the time. As the shadow approached, he was ready to draw his sword at any moment.

"Hey, hey, hey!!" the shadow jerked away and returned to its original position, letting out an inexplicable laugh.

"You know what?"

He suddenly reappeared in Lin Xin's ear like lightning and said softly.

"The Mansion is Alive"

"Have you found that in the secluded mansion, killing has not been improved quickly?"

"Have you found that you can kill enough in the outside world?"

"Have you found that relying on the killing in the secluded mansion alone can no longer keep up with the speed of illusion enhancement?"

Every question stabbed Lin Xin's heart like a sharp sword, his heart continued to tighten, and his pupils suddenly contracted into small holes.

"What should I do!?" he asked, suppressing the urge to do something at any moment.

"Kill," the humanoid black shadow Na Shura laughed weirdly, "Endless killing of the secluded mansion requires endless nourishment from different worlds, from different times and everything."

As he spoke, the whole black shadow gradually fell silent, and there was no more sound.

"Kill, kill what. Where to kill?" Lin Xin wanted to know more, but found that the other party had completely lost his voice.

"Are you still there?"

No response.

"Do you have any wishes that I need to fulfill?"

"Or do you want something?"

"What can I do to get you out of here?"

Temptation after temptation, temptation again and again, the humanoid black shadow did not respond in the slightest.

Lin Xin finally sat down here cross-legged and waited. This humanoid black shadow Na Shura knows absolutely all the secrets. If you can't get enough information from him. It's going to be really tough next time.

It was a few days, and he used the time disc he had brought with him, and five days passed, and no matter how much he called, the black figure of the human figure did not respond.

In the end, he tried to touch the other party, but it was like an illusion, and the other party couldn't touch it at all. It was as if it was just a shadow floating in mid-air, a ball of light.

In desperation, he could only return the same way. Lift up the light power and speed down the mountain.

As we passed the mountainside, the circle of black bugs was still dancing around the corona. As if tireless.

Lin Xin glanced at it from afar, and then continued to return towards the original route.

There is no danger, no murderous intent, no sunshine, and no hope.

His heart was faintly empty, but he didn't know what was missing.

A short time later, he was again at the place where the dried corpses were bowing around the campfire.

"What the hell is this place?"

"Youfu is alive?"

"Killing? Constant killing. If it doesn't mean killing in the secluded mansion, then it means killing somewhere else."

"Perhaps. On the surface, kill in the sun?" he stood in front of the fire, looking back at the dazzlingly red summit of the volcano in the distance.

He faintly recalled, and it seemed that he did feel that he was killing in the yang world much faster than killing in the secluded mansion. The hallucinations also seem to lessen a lot.

"Youfu, is this encouraging us to kill in our own world to provide him with nutrients?" Lin Xin had a faint guess in his heart.

Go over the fire. He left the town, and he quickly returned to the magma lake, the formation where the Void Flower was located.

"Can I still come here?" he turned his head and looked at the volcano in the distance, if he just left. He was a little unwilling.

He had come here to find a way out of the illusion, and now, he only learned from a strange dark shadow existence that he could try to solve the problem by killing.

Without a reason, without a foundation, it is impossible for him to completely choose to believe the other party.

Withdrawing the formation, he looked at the empty flowers that gradually appeared, and in the middle of the petals was a black tunnel mouth, where was the way back.

"I don't know if you can use the demon rune here. ”

His heart suddenly moved, and he took out a demon talisman and gently injected spiritual energy.

hiss

A slight trembling sound spread from the demon rune species, but in just a few seconds, the entire metallic demon talisman species suddenly burned, and the red flames burned violently on Lin Novice's hand, but there was not the slightest heat spread. As if it wasn't fire at all.

"This!?" he tried to activate the array disk to expel the flames, but to no avail, the crimson flames seemed to be mortal fire, but they had no flame characteristics at all.

A piece of demon talisman was quickly burned and completely vaporized.

The fire slowly extinguished.

Lin Xin was stunned and withdrew his hand, knowing that there was no way to summon the carriage. After all, he turned around and walked towards the short empty flower without hesitation.

Standing directly below the entrance to the cave, he tilted his head and whispered.

"Two-faced country. ”

hiss

A powerful suction force pulled Lin Xin up and sneered. His whole body was swallowed by the flower in one gulp.

The short space flower burped like a human, and the whole plant quickly blackened, withered, and went limp, but in a few breaths, it turned into a pool of dead plant remains.

Lin Xin returned to the tunnel like the black intestinal wall, flying forward in a bend and forward, he looked back, and saw that all the intestinal wall passages behind him had completely turned into pitch black the moment he flew over. (To be continued.) )
