"Shhh...... What is it? ”

Opening the wooden box, Ling Feng gasped when he saw the contents of the box.

Quietly in the box lay a long, extremely hideous arm, dark red, with strong muscles covered with tiny scales, and looking down, five long fingers with extremely sharp nails.

This definitely won't be a human arm!

"Long story short, my name is Xiaoxiao and I'm from the Spirit Realm. This is the Zero Realm, as for the monster's name is the three-headed demon toad, it belongs to the mutant class, it is a native creature here———— Zero Beast, and the Zero Beast is the enemy of our spiritual realm. My mission is to destroy the Zero Beasts that have invaded the real world. ”

The girl in black slowly picked up the hideous arm with a solemn expression, and after flipping it, she saw a talisman painted with strange symbols on the back of the arm. From time to time, a flowing light could be seen on the talisman, which seemed to be designed to seal the hideous-looking arm.

"Wait, Zero? Spiritual Realm? The real world? Isn't this the Earth? ”

Hearing Xiaoxiao's words, Ling Feng's eyes widened in disbelief.

As if he had long expected Ling Feng to react like this, Xiaoxiao patiently explained, "I don't know if this place is on Earth, but this place is called the Zero Realm, which is the ghost gate pass and the underworld in the ghost stories you have heard. The Zero Realm is a world parallel to the real world you live in. There are zero beasts living here, and humans and various creatures live in the real world. The two worlds are like two parallel lines, and they cannot interfere with each other on a normal day. However, there are no absolutes, and some small spaces that exist between the Zero Realm and the real world will be connected to the Zero Realm and the real world at the same time. The small space also forms a passage between the two worlds, through which you can naturally travel back and forth between the two worlds. Of course, there is a second situation, some particularly powerful Zero Beasts can also be embodied in the real world, and even some can forcibly pull people or things in the real world to the Zero Realm. ”

"Zero Beast and real-world creatures are two opposite, incompatible beings. Zero Beast is born to feed on human souls, life. It is said that the original Zero Realm had lifeforms similar to humans and various animals, but they were later destroyed and devoured by the Zero Beasts in the war. As a result, the Zero Realm is in ruins, and only the Zero Beast is left in the Zero Realm. By chance, the first Zero Beast discovered a way to go to the real world, and the Zero Beast's invasion of the real world began. Now the war between the Zero Realm and the real world began thousands of years ago. ”

"This ...... How is this possible? Thousands of years? How is this possible? The first ancestors of our humanities are only thousands of years away from now, and they started from that era? This...... This ......"

It was difficult to digest this kind of information for a while, and Ling Feng stammered speechless.

In fact, I don't blame him for being so out of shape, this kind of rhetoric will not be accepted by anyone who encounters it. If someone on the street suddenly tells you that there are ghosts in this world, will you accept it?

Seeing Ling Feng's surprised look, Xiao Xiao asked rhetorically, "Then think about it, where did those myths and legends, the king of the underworld, those ugly monsters, and the things in ghost legends come from." Life is the source of creation, if those references did not appear in reality, how did the ancients create those stories out of thin air? Besides, aren't you a Zero Beast? ”

As Xiao Xiao spoke, he pointed to the three-headed demon toad that was going crazy not far away.

"No, forget about ancient times, if it was modern, it shouldn't have been spread to the Internet a long time ago, and the whole world would know about it."

Ling Feng suddenly thought of something and retorted.

If this is really the case as Xiaoxiao said, the Internet is so developed, as long as one person sees Zero Beast, wouldn't the whole world know about it if he sends a photo to the circle of friends?

"As for why the whole world knows that it has not been transmitted, the people of our spirit realm cannot stop the invasion of the Zero Beast in time every time, so not all the people who are attacked can survive. Also, in order not to let the present world fall into panic, after we rescue those survivors in the spirit realm, we will erase their memories. ”

Xiaoxiao seemed to be a little depressed, and she looked up at the red moon in the sky.

"This ...... This...... Well, I believe it. So what's going on in your spiritual realm? Ling Feng smacked his tongue and asked with a deep breath.

"The spiritual realm, the spiritual realm is the spiritual realm, but the spiritual realm is in the zero realm." Xiaoxiao said as a matter of course.

"The Spirit Realm is in the Zero Realm?" Ling Feng scratched his head in confusion.

"That's right, thousands of years ago, the Zero Realm invaded the real world, and the first person to discover a way to fight against the Zero Beast and possess spiritual power, we in the Spirit Realm call him a pioneer. The Pioneers led the humans to defeat the Zero, sealing off most of the passages. However, there are still a large number of Zero Beasts in the Zero Realm, and they invade the present world from time to time. Coupled with the fact that humans with spiritual power are not much different from Zero Beasts in a sense for ordinary people. In order to prevent the invasion of the Zero Beast, and in order to maintain the order of the present world, the pioneer led all the humans with spiritual power to establish the spirit realm in the zero realm, and left a rule that the people of the spirit realm could only deal with the zero beast secretly and not interfere with the present world. ”

Speaking of this, Xiaoxiao's expression was solemn, and it was obvious that she had great respect for that pioneer.

In this way, this pioneer is really great and not famous. I have never heard such a story in this life, and the people of your spiritual realm are also great, silently guarding mankind. Ling Feng nodded and exclaimed.

"Let's not talk about that, now is not the time to remember, how can I gain strength?"

"The population of the Spirit Realm is far less than that of the present world, and not all of them have the strength to destroy the Zero Beasts. This is the gauntlet inherited from the beginning of the spiritual realm, it is said that it can be used as a key to unlock the hidden power of the human body, but if you want to open the potential, you must be recognized by it, and if you don't get the recognition, you will be subjected to a very serious backlash, and many people have tried to use it for thousands of years, but no one has ever succeeded. In order to prevent someone from using it without permission and getting harmed, and to prevent the power of the gauntlet from being lost through the erosion of time. The big people of the spiritual realm worked together to use this talisman to seal it in the dust for thousands of years. ”

Xiaoxiao stood up and handed the hideous arm to Ling Feng, and when he received it in his hand, Ling Feng found that the end of the arm was hollow, and this hideous arm was a wearable gauntlet.

"Can you wear it and gain the power to stop that monster?"

Ling Feng rubbed the hideous and rough gauntlet in his hand, and gradually his eyes were a little hollow. In a trance, he seemed to have come to a dark space, in which his consciousness roamed, and in the depths of that space there seemed to be a faint voice calling his name. He tried to get closer to the being who called him, and he got closer, and in the darkness he tried to look out into the distance. A monster covered in black scale armor slowly raised its head in the darkness, revealing a painfully twisted face. Seeing this face, Ling Feng broke out in a cold sweat and instantly sobered up.

"Hey! What were you just thinking? ”

Xiaoxiao saw Ling Feng, who was stunned, and called out on the side.

"I didn't ...... Nothing ......."

Ling Feng took a deep breath, shook his head, and looked at the gauntlet in his hand again, but couldn't see anything.

"You just said that once you fail, it will have very serious consequences, more uncomfortable than death? What are the consequences? Ling Feng changed the subject.

"According to records, if the user does not get its approval, a large amount of life force will be drained at best, and at worst, he will become an unspeakable monster. People are not ghosts, and ghosts exist. To be honest, I'm not optimistic about you, in my hometown in the Spirit Realm, many ordinary people fail, and there are also many favored geniuses who want to try, but they end up with life worse than death. The odds of you failing are very high, and it's only the first time I've seen an ordinary person break free from the immobilization spell, and because of your determination to save people, whimsically feel that you have the slightest chance. Well, it's up to you to say more, the choice is yours. ”

Although she noticed Ling Feng's abnormality, Xiaoxiao didn't think much about it, she just thought that Ling Feng was making some choice in her heart.

Ling Feng held the gauntlet, looked at the smoke and dust in the sky, and the three-headed demon toad that was ready to attack over there, closed his eyes, and one picture after another appeared in his mind............

"Brother, teach me your homework!"

The cute little girl looked up, smiled and showed two cute little dimples, grabbed the boy's arm, and pulled him towards the table.

"Brother, woo woo woo, does it hurt?"

The little girl knelt on the ground with red eyes, and the young man on the side pulled up her trouser leg, and there was a bite mark on her right leg.

The young man used his scratched fingers to gently wipe the tears flowing from the corners of the little girl's eyes, and grinned: "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt, next time a big dog bullies you, I will definitely help you fix it." ”

Under the starry sky in the dark night, the young man and the girl sat side by side on the covered bridge, the girl snuggled up to the boy, looked up at the stars in the sky, and said gloomily: "Brother, I heard others say that people will become stars in the sky after they die, so do you say that Mom and Dad will look at us?" ”

The young man raised his hand and gently stroked the girl's head, and said with a gentle expression: "Of course, they have been watching from the sky, so we must live well!" ”

Hearing the young man's words, the girl suddenly became radiant, her little eyes were as bright as stars in the sky, she stood up, jumped on the spot and nodded seriously: "Hmm! ”

……………………………………

"Brother will definitely take care of you, do what he says! Wait, my brother is coming soon! ”

Ling Feng: "Huh! He opened his eyes, his eyes were extremely firm, and he did not hesitate to remove the talisman attached to the gauntlet, and in an instant, a vast aura that seemed to come from ancient times hit, and a blazing flame ignited on the gauntlet, which instantly spread from the gauntlet to Ling Feng's whole body, almost wanting to devour Ling Feng. The unimaginable pain caused Ling Feng to hold his hands on the ground and lie on the ground. Before the sweat could flow, it had been completely evaporated, and in the flames, Ling Feng roared and stretched his right hand into the hideous gauntlet.

As he stretched in, the gauntlet suddenly tightened, ctraining Ling Feng's arm tightly, and then in the flames, the gauntlet became brighter and brighter, and after a while, it turned into a liquid form, flowing upwards along Ling Feng's arm, as if it was about to devour the entire arm.

Pain overwhelmed Ling Feng's sanity, and he slammed his right arm that seemed to be wrapped in lava to the ground, and the blazing flames suddenly spread out in all directions.

However, this alone is tantamount to a drop in the bucket, and there is no way to release the power in the arm. The painful feeling intensified, and it was about to completely consume Ling Feng's will. Once his will is devoured, he will become an indescribable monster like the ancestors recorded in the materials that Xiaoxiao has seen.

"How could this be? This is clearly even more terrible than what is documented. If you go on like this, you will fail! No, I have to help him! ”

Looking at Ling Feng's painful appearance, feeling the terrifying temperature, Xiao Xiao's face with cold ice ability became extremely ugly, she shook her head, held her abdomen, and staggered over.

Barely condensed, a trace of cold current grabbed Ling Feng's right arm, and suddenly a white gas emanated from the place where the two of them shook hands. It's like pouring water into melted magma and vaporizing instantly.

Xiao Xiao endured the injury and injected the cold spiritual power into Ling Feng's right arm, and suddenly the violent power in Ling Feng's right arm seemed to have found an outlet for catharsis and wanted to drill into Xiao Xiao's meridians.

Xiao Xiao, who was already seriously injured, was powerless to fight at all, and after barely resisting for a while, the violent power drilled in, and the temperature of Xiaoxiao's arm rose at an extremely terrifying speed, and the faint cold attribute spiritual power in the meridians was tantamount to a drop in the bucket in the face of this violent force, and Xiaoxiao's arm was about to spontaneously combust.

At this moment, the faint spiritual power that was infused into Ling Feng's right arm seemed to have an effect, and Ling Feng, who was unconscious, felt a familiar cold current and came to his senses. Seeing Xiaoxiao, who was in danger because he helped himself, he burst into a loud shout.

"Give me back!"

The left hand clenched his fist and smashed it on the ground, and the scattered flames suddenly rolled back and swept towards his body.

At the same time, Xiaoxiao only felt a huge suction force coming from Ling Feng's body, and all the violent energy drilled into the meridians was withdrawn, and this was not the end, even the residual cold attribute spiritual power in her body was sucked over.

Then a strong momentum was accompanied, and the white water vapor produced by the collision of flames and cold currents exploded, and Xiaoxiao was pushed and fell to the ground.

"Is this a failure? Or did it work? Also, why can't I feel any strength at all? ”

Xiaoxiao stared at the white water vapor, looked at her hands, felt her own state, and her expression became panicked.

The suction just now seemed to suck all her strength dry, and it was not in the ordinary sense, in the past, her spiritual power could be continuously generated after consumption, but now it feels like it is gone. It's like being cut off from the source.

After a while, the water vapor dissipated with the wind, and a figure slowly emerged, at this time, Ling Feng's sleeves had been burned, his bare right arm turned red, there were dense black spells on his arm, his fingers became larger and thicker, and sharp nails grew on his fingers.

"Integrated? Is this a success? ”

Without thinking about carefully checking his own situation, Xiaoxiao looked at Ling Feng's right arm, at this time, Ling Feng's right arm became exactly the same as the gauntlet, but the gauntlet disappeared, and the two seemed to be perfectly combined.

Ling Feng raised his completely changed right arm, looked at it again and again, repeated the action of clenching his fist and letting go a few more times, and said in a daze: "I succeeded?" ”

He didn't want to remember the unspeakable pain just now, and before today, he would never have imagined that there was such a painful thing in the world. He only remembered that in the vagueness, it seemed that Xiaoxiao had helped him.

Thinking of this, he looked at Xiaoxiao worriedly.

Xiaoxiao shook her head in response, and then pointed to the three-headed demon toad that was still gathering energy in the distance.

Ling Feng immediately understood, and said with a slight smile: "Although I don't know how I succeeded, but after success, I have a feeling. ”

"What does it feel?" Xiaoxiao scratched her head suspiciously.

I saw Ling Feng raise his crimson right hand to grasp it, and the flame slowly began to ignite from his right hand, Ling Feng raised his left hand again to make a horizontal wipe, and the flame burned to the left inch by inch, and at first I couldn't see anything, but after wiping a meter, I could see that it seemed to be a flame long knife, but this knife ...... It's huge.

After wiping it, he withdrew his left hand, only to see Ling Feng holding a 2.5-centimeter-long, twenty-centimeter-wide flame machete in his right hand.

Ling Feng put the flame machete on his shoulder, looked at Xiao Xiao and said, "I feel it, it's so weak." ”

After saying that, Ling Feng began to run, he actually dragged the knife away, and after accelerating more than ten meters, he saw a figure rise from the ground, raising the flame machete high above his head, and slashing towards the three-headed demon toad with a knife.

Blazing flames burst out from the blade, slashing at the three black energy balls, the three-headed demon toad that lost its eyes, only felt an irresistible high temperature attacking, the green skin instantly became scorched, and it was caught off guard and wanted to explode the energy balls in advance, but there was no chance.

The blazing flames engulfed the energy orb, and then devoured the massive body of the three-headed demon toad unabated............

Ling Feng landed with his back to the three-headed demon toad that was engulfed in flames, the flame machete was withdrawn, and the crimson arm returned to its original state.

A moment later, the flames dissipated, and the massive body of the three-headed demon toad fell to the ground with a bang............
