Under the full moon, the pitch-black mud stacked on top of each other, like a crumbling throne of flesh and blood.

And in front of this Throne of Flesh, Leo looked at the black-red spherical hedron suspended in his hand, and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.

——

[Black Blood Crystal]: Life alienation condensation. After the aberration of the secondary pollution - [black] erodes the living body, the original vitality of the living form is decayed and extinguished, and then alienated into a xenomorphic life crystal, which has a certain flesh-and-blood fusion nature.

Effect:

1. Direct use. Increases [Basic Defense].

(Acceptance of both soul and will, failure to pass either will cause the body to be [blackened] mutation, with unknowable consequences.) Soul Fire Brightness ≥ 10.0 and Will Power ≥ 10.0, this must be passed. ）

(Will strength is a hidden branch attribute, detecting...... Condition Determination...... Will strength display has been turned on for you...... ）

(Current [Will Strength]: 15.84 - Based on the strength of sword intent, the value is about one-tenth of it, affected by the state, there are certain fluctuations up and down)

2. Fusion. Collect three [Black Blood Crystals] and place them together to fuse them into [Black Blood Pure Crystals], which will increase its effect and appear with additional special amplification effects, but the judgment conditions will be improved to a certain extent, so you need to be cautious.

(Decaying life and soul, bringing about the deformation and transformation of the physical body, is this evolution, or disaster?) What is the mystery between life, soul, and body? ）

——

One, very interesting stuff.

Leo withdrew his gaze from the introduction of the character panel and put away the [Black Blood Crystal] in his hand.

From the introduction of the character panel, he learned a very important piece of information, that is, the so-called black fog, in essence, is a secondary pollution of distortion - [Black Silt].

After coming to the Moster continent for so long, this was the first time Leo had come into contact with information related to aberration.

There is no room for him not to pay attention to it.

However, now is not the time to think deeply about this.

Contrary to what I imagined, after the death of the [Black Death Lord] Flesh Flower, there was no creation of a soul.

The aberration secondary pollution, [Black Silt], seems to transform the original vitality and soul of living beings into abnormal bodies through some unknown means, resulting in the loss of souls.

At least, that's what it looks like on the [Black Dead Lord] Flesh Flower.

This also means that Leo is now unable to absorb powerful souls to alleviate his weakened state after the end of "Sunlight".

With nine seconds left before Sunshine ends, he will be in a state of intense weakness.

In the state of "Sunlight", Leo had a powerful perceptual ability, allowing Leo to vaguely perceive that in the depths of the black fog in the distance, there was a special fluctuation similar to the [Black Death Lord] Flesh and Blood Flower, which was rapidly coming in the direction where he was.

Obviously, the extremely powerful sword just now had alarmed an unknown existence in the depths of the black mist.

This place should not be stayed for long.

Leo's heart was awe-inspiring.

A [Black Death Lord] Flower of Flesh and Blood, he needs to turn on the "Sunlight" to kill, similar, or even stronger existences, I don't know how many there are in the black mist.

This time the disaster of the Black Death was far more terrifying than the Twilight Sword Saint estimated!

Thinking of this, Leo's figure flashed, turned into a streamer, and headed towards the north.

About a minute after Leo left, a presence completely shrouded in black fog and unable to see the specific form suddenly appeared here.

It looked at the black Roshan that was gradually beginning to decay and dry up in front of it, and felt the disappearance of the [Black Blood Crystal] that was the core of the black Roshan, and fell silent.

In the next moment, the silent ripples centered on its body and spread to a distance of several thousand meters.

In an instant, all life within this range withered.

……

At the moment when the death ripples spread, Leo, who was nearly a hundred kilometers away, turned his head as if he was aware of it and looked in the direction of the black fog.

In his perception, there seemed to be a monster in the black fog at this moment that was even larger and more terrifying than the [Black Death Lord] Flesh and Blood Flower, stirring the black fog so much that it couldn't stop churning.

Even from such a distance, there was still movement.

After a few seconds, Leo withdrew his gaze and rushed back in the direction of the ancient city of Sam with a pale face.

After the end of "Sunlight", a strong sense of weakness swept through his body and mind, if it weren't for the fact that the volitional attribute was as high as 15.84, he would have been unconscious at this moment, but even if he was not unconscious, he could barely support it with one breath.

It is essential to return to the ancient city of Sammu as soon as possible.

Behind Leo, there were two figures that were still unconscious, the blood-patterned black-robed man and the little boy.

Leo's battle with the [Black Death Lord] Flesh Flower was short, and that wasn't enough time for the two of them to wake up.

Enduring the extreme weakness, Leo reluctantly controlled the sword intent, took himself and the two of them, and fled quickly towards the ancient city of Sam.

……

The ancient city of Sam, the top of the Temple of the Heavenly Sword.

The moment the death ripples spread at the edge of the black mist, the Twilight Sword Saint sitting here seemed to open his eyes consciously.

His eyes instantly became solemn.

Is this fluctuation of intensity a high-risk variant of the Full Moon limit? Or, a demigod-level black mist breeder?

Either way, it's a terrifying existence.

H.E. Leo ......

The Twilight Sword Saint's heart tightened slightly.

It is impossible for the black mist to have such a degree of mutation for no reason, and combined with the time when Leo went to [Tianyuan], it is easy to guess that the reason for the appearance of this death ripple must be inseparable from Leo.

Next to the Twilight Sword Saint, the gray-clad Acater also sat cross-legged.

He didn't have the strong perception of the Twilight Sword Saint, and he could perceive the changes hundreds of kilometers away, but he always paid attention to the Twilight Sword Saint, and immediately noticed the changes in the expression and eyes of the Twilight Sword Body.

"Lord Swordmaster, did something happen?" He spoke out with some anxiety.

The Twilight Sword Saint was silent for a moment, then shook his head: "It's okay, with [Storm Aria] and Dragon King Ancient Scales, if you really encounter any invincible existence, Your Excellency Leo can escape, don't worry too much." ”

Hearing this, Acater's anxious heart slowed down slightly.

Indeed, if neither of these things was useful, even if he and the Sword Saint rushed there, it would not be of any use.

Time, in anxious waiting, passes little by little.

Acater stared at the southern night sky, the "Pilgrim's Mark" on his forehead shining with the light of the moon.

Suddenly, Akar's eyes froze.

Because at the end of the line of sight, a streamer came quickly.

The familiar aura made Acat's eyes look delighted.

It's Mr. Lee!

The speed of the streamer was very fast, and only a dozen seconds had passed from the time it appeared to the time it descended on the top of the Heavenly Sword Temple.

When the streamer dissipated, Leo, who was extremely pale, and the blood-patterned black-robed man and the little boy behind him appeared in the eyes of the Twilight Sword Master and Arcat.

"Mr. Li, what's wrong with you?!"

Seeing Leo's appearance, Acater's face changed, and he hurriedly rushed forward to support Leo, who was stumbling and almost falling, and his voice was full of anxiety.

The Twilight Sword Saint's eyes swept over the unconscious little boy in the blood-patterned black-robed man, froze on the blood-patterned black-robed man for a moment, and then landed on Leo's body, his brows furrowed.

"Are you using some kind of secret method with great side effects?"

Leo nodded with a pale face: "I'll go and rest first, you can take care of these two people, you must not let them escape, the reason, I will tell you more after I recover." ”

"Go and rest, rest assured, we'll take care of everything."

Acater replied with a heavy voice.

Leo nodded slightly, and then his figure turned into a streamer, and he fled to the tower where he lived not far away.

After Leo left, at the top of the Heavenly Sword Temple, the Twilight Wind Sword Saint raised his hand and grabbed the unconscious blood-patterned black-robed man and the little boy, and suddenly, the wind attribute magic that condensed into a solid state formed a nested triple wind cage around them.

Above the cage, the glow of the magic pattern flickered, further blessing the sturdiness.

In such a cage, even if it is the existence of the limit of the Full Moon Legend, it will take a certain amount of time to break free, not to mention the blood-patterned black-robed person who has just entered the New Moon Legend and the little boy who is just an ordinary person.

With them, even if they struggle to death, they can't break free.

After imprisoning the two, the Twilight Sword Saint let go of his hand.

He took Leo's words very seriously.

Not only because of the strange and terrifying fluctuations in the extreme distance just now, but also because of the body of this blood-patterned black-robed man, he felt a very strange aura.

As for the little boy, although he didn't know why he looked like he was just an ordinary person, he would be brought back by Lord Leo, but since Lord Leo brought him back, there must be a reason for it.

Everything, when His Excellency Leo wakes up, will know.

The Twilight Sword Saint turned his head, looked at Akat who had an anxious look on his face, and comforted: "It's okay, Your Excellency Leo's will is strong, and his soul is tenacious, and there are very few in the legend, although I don't know what happened to him, causing him to use this secret method that seems to have great side effects, but with his ability, there will definitely be no problems." ”

Akatra nodded, but the look of worry on his face didn't diminish much.

At the third level of the Holy Wind Tour, Mr. Li was not so embarrassed in the face of the [Queen] who was the third seat of the Kingdom Council, which shows what kind of life and death crisis he encountered when he went to the edge of the black fog to investigate this time.

With his fists clenched under his sleeves, Arcater fell silent, sat down again, and waited quietly.

For the side effects of the secret method, outsiders basically can't do much help, and can only rely on themselves.

All he could do was make sure that no one bothered Mr. Li while he was resting.

……

When consciousness regained clarity and reopened his eyes, I don't know how much time had passed.

Leo lay on the bed, looking sideways at the sunlight slanting in through the window, his eyes waking up like a dream.

Raising his hand and rubbing his eyebrows, he could feel that although his body and soul had largely recovered at this moment, there was still a trace of tiredness.

"It's ......"

Leo sighed.

This time, he did miscalculate.

Who would have thought that after the death of the [Black Death Lord] Flesh and Blood Flower, there would not be the slightest drop of soul.

This was a wake-up call in Leo's heart.

In the future, if you can, you still have to keep a hero's soul as much as possible to repair the strong weakened state after using "Sunlight".

For a long time, he has been forced by the outside world to become stronger, and as soon as he has a soul that can make him stronger, he naturally uses it as soon as possible, and he doesn't want to save it.

But in today's situation, the enemy in the black fog may not necessarily drop souls.

Although there is something as magical as [Black Blood Crystal] as compensation, in fact, Leo still prefers the Black Dead and even its mutants, which can drop their souls directly.

Although the Black Dead was mutated from the aberration secondary pollution [Black Stale], absorbing the souls dropped by such a monster would likely lead to a further deepening of the degree of aberration erosion, but Leo, who has now been promoted to the realm of heaven and man, is sure to completely suppress the "second personality" before the aberration-malignant transformation reaches 50%.

It's a pity......

Leo got down from the bed, and after a brief tidying up, he stepped out, and his body disappeared into the room in an instant, and when he reappeared, he was already at the top of the Heavenly Sword Temple.

Seeing Leo, whose face was still a little pale, but generally fine, Arcatel breathed a sigh of relief, and finally let go of the heart that had been hanging.

"Mr. Li, it's great that you're okay."

"Worries you." Leo smiled apologetically at Arcater and the Twilight Sword Saint, "By the way, how long have I been asleep?" ”

"Almost 36 hours, a day and a half." Twilight Sword Saint Dao.

"Is it such a long time...... Leo shook his head helplessly, "Sunlight" is strong, and the side effects are also extremely terrifying, for another person, without his strong will attribute, I am afraid that I don't know how long I will be in a coma before I recover.

He turned his head to look at the two men suspended in mid-air, locked in the cage of the Triple Wind.

After such a long time, the blood-patterned black-robed man and the little boy also woke up, the former looking at them with gloomy eyes, while the latter had a feeling of sadness in his eyes, and there was a feeling that his sorrow was greater than that of his heart dying.

"Hu ......" did not let the Twilight Sword Saint lift the blockade of the two, about the matter of these two people, it can be dealt with later, Leo looked at the Twilight Sword Saint, and said with an extremely solemn face: "Lord Sword Saint, in the black mist, there has been a terrible change. ”

"How?" Infected by Leo, the face of the Twilight Sword Saint also became solemn.

Leo didn't make a detour, and said quickly: "I went to the edge of the black mist, and as soon as I got there, I was attracted by a special fluctuation, which was the unique fluctuation of the life and soul dying and the breeding of alien vitality after the living were eroded by the black fog and contracted the Black Death. ”

"When I got closer, I witnessed one of the residents transform into a black dead, and I was confronted by the two men."

"I took action to stop the actions of the blood-streaked black-robed man and saved this little boy, from the blood-streaked black-robed man's self-talk, this little boy seems to be a very special Black Death resistant ......"

As Leo said this, the eyes of both the Twilight Sword Saint and Arcater changed drastically.

Black Death Resistant ...... This is an extremely rare case, and it is of unparalleled significance for the study of the Black Death.

"At that time, I was amazed at how quickly the villagers here were infected with the Black Death and transformed into the Black Dead, after all, according to what you said, it usually takes two to three days for people infected with the Black Death to completely become the Black Dead."

Leo continued.

The Twilight Sword Saint nodded, this is the law summed up by Winsted in the fight against the Black Death for hundreds of years.

"However, I had just finished dealing with the blood-patterned black-robed man, and I didn't even have time to torture him about the reason for his appearance here, and a terrifying sense of vibration came from the depths of the black mist."

"It's a hundred-meter-tall war species made of countless black dead entanglements, with a blood-colored fleshy flower growing on its head, and I name this monster [Black Death Lord] - the flower of flesh and blood."

"This is a terrifying monster, not only is it indestructible in body, but it is also incredibly powerful, and with pure strength, it can unleash an attack comparable to that of a legend close to the full moon."

"If that's all it is, it's nothing, at best, it's only a powerful high-risk mutant, what really worries me is that this monster is exuding a kind of black-red weird ripples to the outside world all the time, under the effect of this ripple, the creatures that were contaminated with the Black Death would have taken two or three days to be alienated, and in a very short period of time, they were alienated into the Black Dead, which was so fast that it was terrifying."

"That's the biggest reason I define it as a war species."

"This is a monster created with a strong tendency!"

"And after I killed it, there was an even more terrifying existence in the depths of the black fog, suspected of this war species, each of them, has a connection with the breeding creatures in the depths of the black fog."

Leo said word by word.

The Twilight Sword Master's face changed completely.

"[Lord of the Black Death] - Flower of Flesh? A high-risk warfare body that can greatly spawn the Black Dead...... If there are several such monsters, then the number of the army of the black dead that will attack after that is ......"

The moment he heard this ability, the Twilight Sword Master thought of the terrifying consequences of it.

The distance of hundreds of kilometers south of the ancient city of Sammu to [Tianyuan], although there are no large towns, there are many villages, and the total population is at least a million.

According to the previous estimation of the Twilight Sword Saint, it will take two to three days for the Black Death to germinate and the Black Dead to occur, counting the hurry, the first batch of Black Dead armies that attacked the ancient city of Sam are tens of thousands at most, and the army of the black dead of this size, with the defense capability of the ancient city of Sam, is not under much pressure to resist.

Even if the black dead will arrive on the battlefield from the rear one after another, but with the time to ease, the ancient city of Sam is not without help, and when the reinforcements sent by the kingdom council arrive, it is not too much of a problem to solve the black death disaster this time.

But in today's black fog, there is a high-risk war variant such as the [Black Death Lord] Flesh and Blood Flower, which can greatly increase the speed of the Black Dead generation, so that the first batch of Black Dead armies that attacked the ancient city of Sam may not be tens of thousands, but hundreds of thousands, and even if the [Black Death Lord] Flesh and Blood Flowers are more numerous, the number of the Black Dead army may reach hundreds of thousands!

With such a large number of Black Dead, the chance of high-risk mutants will be greatly increased!

In the face of a wave of the black dead army of this scale, the ancient city of Sam may be difficult to resist!

The army of hundreds of thousands of black dead, stacked on top of everything, was enough to flood the walls of the ancient city of Sam. What's more, a large number of the Black Dead will bring a terrible amplification effect, causing the strength of each Black Dead to increase significantly, which has been clearly verified in the past history.

Realizing the seriousness of the problem, the Twilight Sword Saint's expression became extremely solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "There is definitely something wrong with this Black Death disaster, there must be some kind of extremely terrifying mutation in [Tianyuan], such a high-risk war mutation...... I'm here to contact the Kingdom Council and other forces, this disaster, even if it's just the first wave, is not something that the ancient city of Sam can resist on its own. ”
