Chapter 109: The Enemy of the Ruins
Before the test, it was believed that the epic was the ceiling of the dynastic era.
After the inspection, the ceiling was directly smashed by the legendary heroic spirit on the spot.
Or two.
The attitude of the Soul Master Association has changed 180 degrees.
Not only is it no longer investigated what kind of mysterious spirit master is standing behind the demon refiner and the white-clothed painter.
Even, after chatting for hours.
Certificates of identity were issued directly to the alchemist and the white-clothed painter.
Yes.
These two black heroic spirits actually washed their hands ashore.
With proof of identity, they can freely enter and exit a variety of official venues, including but not limited to ruins, the Guild of Soul Masters, and Immortal Deathmatch.
I even got a credit account belonging to the Heroic Spirit.
Truly has the identity on the surface.
The reason for this change has a lot to do with the experience of the two heroic spirits.
Alchemist...... Carrying everything alone, walking in the darkness, saving the times.
Painter in white...... is chivalrous in itself, and he is even more devoted to everything, painting a map of mountains and rivers and nourishing the land of seven states.
Both Heroic Spirits are real good camps.
If the mysterious spirit master can get their approval, naturally he can't be a bad person.
Based on this, after discussion by the Soul Master Association, this choice was made, which can be regarded as giving respect and recognition to the true Heroic Spirit.
If it's replaced by a Heroic Spirit with a chaotic tendency.
No matter how rare it is, the Soul Master Guild will not compromise in the slightest.
This can also be regarded as a positive benefit from the prestige of the Heroic Spirit.
As for the current crisis in the spirit world.
Zhong Weiming also gave a real answer.
He took the alchemist and the white-clothed painter and left the headquarters of the Imperial Spirit Association, and took a flying machine to the ruins around Kyoto City.
The alchemist sat on the flying machine and saw the entrance to the ruins below.
Immediately, I thought of what I had encountered in the ruins of the ancient capital.
"Is it the remnant of time in the ruins, the corrupted demon?"
"Nope."
Zhong Weiming gave a negative answer.
He also looked down, his eyes solemn.
"It's the ruins themselves...... After the collapse of the ruins, to be exact. β
"You should know that the original Taixuan Ruins came five hundred years ago, bringing with them mediums, treasures, and heroic spirits, and ushering in the age of the Imperial Spirit."
"People initially thought it was the beginning of a myth, a gift of time."
"Until 300 years ago......"
Zhong Weiming walked out of the aircraft, verified his identity, and passed through one level after another.
When he led the alchemist through the entrance to the ruins.
What is displayed in front of you is not a mysterious scene made up of various times, but an indescribable color.
Everything seemed to fade into a silent gray.
Just looking at the past makes people tired and feel dead.
Fortunately, on this gray plain, there are fortresses with special appearances, and the little colors they bring make the world no longer monotonous.
Seems to have noticed them.
In the fortress next to the entrance, a young man stepped out and saluted respectfully.
"Zhong Lao."
Zhong Weiming returned the salute seriously before continuing to preach.
"The original batch of Taixuan relics, which existed for two hundred years, gradually collapsed over a long period of time, faded everything, and became what they are now."
"People call it the 'Time Market.'"
"The ruins are relatively stable near the entrance, and the deeper you go, the more broken they become, and at the bottom, a huge crack has formed."
"People didn't know what that meant at first."
"Until the enemy came out of the depths of the ruins, killed all the unsuspecting researchers in the ruins, and broke into the world of the spirits, creating the blood eucalyptus ......"
"People have only discovered that this gift from time is actually a sugar-coated poison."
Zhong Weiming sighed.
When the demon refiner heard his story, he also felt a chill in his heart.
Ruins are undoubtedly a rich resource production point for the people of the Imperial Spirit Age.
But when it gradually loses its effect and evolves into a ruin, the side effects brought by it far exceed the resource benefits-
The resource can only last for two hundred years.
According to Zhong Weiming's statement, the birth of the first Shixu has lasted at least three hundred years, and it is unknown how long it will last in the future.
Extrapolated from this scenario.
If it starts from a certain day.
The Taixuan ruins no longer appear?
After a few hundred years, all the Taixuan ruins were transformed into time ruins.
Such an outcome would be devastating.
When you think about it this way, the Imperial Spirit World is like a frog in a pot, seemingly bathing in warm water, but in fact the temperature is rising sharply!
The demon refiner was still a little puzzled.
"What is the enemy in the depths of the ruins?"
"What's on the other side of the rift?"
"I don't know."
Zhong Weiming shook his head.
He didn't hide it this time, and explained directly.
"The enemies in the depths of the ruins are not creatures in the conventional sense, but more like wisps of ...... Breath. β
"It's not demonic energy, it's not demonic energy, it's an inexplicable gray aura."
"When these gray auras fall on the land of the ruins, they will evolve into all kinds of enemies, and the more aura, the stronger the strength."
"We've also sent the Heroic Spirit to the depths of the ruins, trying to pass through the rift and go to the other side."
"And yet ......"
"Even if it's the heroic spirit of the legendary era, the book fairy."
"It was also eroded by the ash gas in the process, disintegrating and dissipating, and failed to bring any information."
Isn't that scary?
The alchemist's back was cold.
What exactly is on the other side of the rift?
Just the overflowing aura made the book immortals and heroic spirits of the legendary era collapse and destroy.
It's no wonder that the Soul Master Association suppressed everything in Shixu, and didn't dare to reveal even the slightest bit to the outside world.
After all......
Even if it's really a monster invasion and the world is on the verge of destruction, that's okay to say.
There are no eggs under the nest, and if you don't want to die, you can only work hard together.
Directly all the people are soldiers, and the preparations for war are full.
But the situation is completely different.
Even the Soul Master Association, even the strongest Spirit Master, didn't know what kind of behemoth the enemy they were facing.
Just a wisp of breath made the book fairy collapse.
This fear of the unknown is enough to crush many people's psychological defenses.
The demon refiner looked at Zhong Weiming and realized in his heart.
"It has only been 300 years since the first ruins appeared."
"I'm a little bit more reluctant to simulate, and the week is longer than that."
"Only this time, maybe even the high-level of the Soul Master Association is still groping, and they haven't figured out how to deal with this unknown enemy."
To tell the truth, seeing the collapse of the Taixuan world, I also perceived this unknown terrifying enemy.
The high-level leaders of the Soul Master Association have not lost their fighting spirit, and they are already very courageous.
For example, Zhong Weiming.
Although his words were heavy, there was no frustration or loss in his eyes.
It's just stating the facts.
After he finished speaking, he even smiled at the demon refiner.
"But we're not standing still."
"In recent years, there have been more and more new Taixuan ruins, many of which are ancient ruins of the legendary era, and even the fragments of the Heavenly Court of the former Taixuan world."
"Those top spirit masters are raiding these legendary relics, discovering and summoning the immortal gods of the legendary era."
"Moreover, since we have researched the method of inheritance of [knowledge], the new generation of spirit masters has become stronger and stronger, and the quality of contract heroic spirits has also been improving."
"Your presence confirms thisβ"
"As strong as the enemy is, we are getting stronger."
"In the past Taixuan World, we are still fighting until the last moment, and we people who control the spirit will not be cowardly before fighting!"
"Well said!"
Suddenly there was a shout of applause.
The demon refiner looked sideways, but saw a soldier who was nearly three meters tall and looked like a little giant walking forward, carrying a giant axe on his shoulder.
"In the past, my Wu Dynasty Erlang, in the face of dozens of times the demon army, never retreated half a point, and fought to the last soldier!"
"What if it's a demon who destroys the world?"
"In the end, it will not be destroyed by my human race!"
"If you lose courage, then it is called miserable!"
The giant soldier laughed heroically, and the giant axe on his shoulder fell to the ground with a bang, and he sat directly beside the three of them.
"I am the thirteenth emperor of the Wu Dynasty...... There are too many ancestors and descendants, I am famous for my axe, you can call me the emperor of the axe, and you can call me Wu Thirteen. β
"The Spirit Master has bought wine, I am now the guard of this time ruin, you are ......"
The Thirteen Emperors of the Wu Dynasty?
The alchemist looked at the axe-wielding giant, and his heart moved slightly.
The Wu Dynasty was the generation of dynasties before the Meng Dynasty, which experienced more than 3,000 years of turbulent times and collapsed most of the world.
Look at the momentum of the Thirteen Emperors of Martial Arts......
Compared to the emperor who sits firmly on the dragon chair, he is more like a general killed on the battlefield.
The Demon Refiner really liked this style of emperor, and introduced himself.
"Zhao Xi, Rong Dynasty swordsman."
"Ning Pingsheng, a painter of the Meng Dynasty."
"Meng Dynasty, Rong Dynasty?"
Emperor Wu Thirteen scratched his head, looking a little confused.
"Doesn't it mean that only mid-level spirit masters have the qualifications to contact Shixu?"
"You are a Meng Dynasty Heroic Soul and a Rong Dynasty Heroic Spirit, how did you come here...... Old Bell, what about their Soul Master? β
"Having said that, Zhao Xi and Ning Pingsheng sound familiar."
Zhong Weiming seems to be very familiar with Emperor Wu.
At this point, he smiled and spoke.
"They're too big for the Spirit Master to show up......"
"However, whether it is strength or any other point of view, they all have the qualifications to contact Shixu."
"I'll change my name, and you'll understand."
"Demon refiner, wonderful painter."
Emperor Wu Thirteen suddenly glared and looked at the two strange heroic spirits in astonishment.
They are the two strongest beings in the future in the mouth of the spirit master?
Just when he was surprised.
The white-clothed painter smiled and invited him.
"Brother Wu, let's talk?"
