Chapter 48: Eventually, Ten Thousand Tribulations
Ludwig stood in the center of the ancient city of Sumeru, and the glowing heavy sword in his hand thudged into the ground with a "bang", instantly destroying all the ancient buildings around him, tearing the ground under his feet, and a bottomless dark ravine appeared.
He didn't rush to use that emerald green giant sword that was dozens of meters high to attack Lin Ye and Lei Guang.
Lei Guang didn't come up and opened a big move to slash the inhuman monster in front of him.
Instead, it slowly floated into mid-air with the power of thunder and lightning.
Look directly at each other indifferently.
At this moment, the hunter suit on Lei Guang's body disappeared, replaced by the purple short sleeves embroidered with plum blossoms, the dark red pill belt around the waist, and the snow-white over-the-knee stockings that showed part of the snow when she and Lin Ye met for the first time......
Now she!
No more Hunter Thunderlight!
It is the thunder of authority, the lonely annihilator who chases the eternal lonely path, and the eternal thunder!
But just when the two were stalemate with each other, the surrounding blood soul energy and the power of thunder collided wildly, and the powerful gusts of wind and invisible energy waves that were constantly stirring up almost flew Lin Yejuan, who was a transcendent being, into the sky dozens of meters high.
Fortunately, Lei Guang put a thunder shield on his backhand, which avoided the tragedy of Lin Ye being wiped to death by an unknown AOE.
Lin Ye: "......"
Damn it!
Is this a battle between higher beings?
Before the official start of the fight, the terrifying momentum emanating from the top and bottom of the body alone was enough to directly shock the weak ordinary humans and transcendents to death?
While thinking, a deep voice like the murmuring of an ancient god sounded in Lin Ye's mind, as if it was thousands of miles away from him, and as if it was close to him, like a church bell that suddenly rang every time he entered a dream.
"You and I are on the same front......"
"But ......"
"You're special......"
"The evil blood of the ancient gods contains twisted power......"
"Can't pollute your mental and physical ......"
"I can't assimilate your ......"
"So ......"
"You are the ideal container ......"
"And the only special case that can end this cycle ......"
"Countless creatures of the Old Gods will come to you, deceive and tempt you with lies, and eventually take possession of your body and descend into reality......"
"I ......"
"Don't risk ......"
"You are the ...... hope for all humanity and the world"
"It's also a threat......
After speaking, Ludwig pulled out the heavy sword inserted in the center of the earth, and the surrounding blood soul energy swept like a tsunami, impacting on the purple energy shield that protected Lin Ye, but there were no ripples at all.
Apparently.
The power of the blood soul he contained was far inferior to the power of thunder and thunder.
You can't even break the shield.
But Ludwig didn't hesitate, and directly swung the giant heavy sword that emitted emerald green light, and slammed it to the ground like a divine monarch's shot, with an incomparably powerful momentum, wanting to kill Lin Ye who had not yet grown up with one blow.
"The Moonlight Sword that Guides Me......"
"My Mentor......"
Rumble!!!
The huge moonlight sword fell from the sky and smashed on the head of the thunder light that stopped in front of Lin Ye, but it was resisted by a seemingly small purple thunder shield!
The two confronted each other in mid-air, and the surrounding red blood soul energy, as well as the purple thunder power, were constantly intertwined, splashing countless dazzling white lights.
Facing the behemoth in front of her, Lei Guang's expression was indifferent, and she slowly stretched out her right hand and pulled out a thunder blade that emitted purple light from her chest.
"Eventually, doomed!"
Thunder skills. A thoughtless knife!
Airplanes!
The piercing thunder resounded across the land!
With that deafening roar, the purple dazzling light quickly spread outward, instantly sweeping across the field like a knife, instantly dispersing all the condensed blood soul energy!
Rumble!!!
White sword light fell from the sky!
Ludwig, who looked distorted, was split in two by this fierce white sword light, and a large amount of blood gushed out from the broken wound, sweeping the ruins of the entire ancient city like a crimson downpour.
The winner is decided.
There are always creatures on the earth who dare to face the power of thunder, but unfortunately it is not you.
These two voices involuntarily popped out of Lin Ye's mind.
However.
He didn't see the kill prompt from the system.
Grass!?
That thing isn't dead yet!?
In the blood-stained ruins of an ancient city, a strange mass like a sarcoma wriggled in the thick blood water, and then transformed into the form of an adult male, and conjured a heavy sword that emitted an emerald green light out of thin air.
Instead of hiding behind the corpse of the huge donkey-faced monster that had fallen to the ground, he walked generously to the ruins with a wide field of vision, looking up at the beautiful woman in the sky wrapped in purple thunder, not caring at all that his "true body" would be discovered by the other party.
But after just one glance, Ludwig withdrew his gaze and looked at Lin Ye standing on the ground again, staring at the man's face, his eyes constantly flashing with a solemn light.
And Lin Ye and Lei Guang also turned their heads to look at this miniature version of "Ludwig", which was more like a human.
This guy?
Turns out to be really a hunter?
……
"After observation, the other party's information has been updated!"
"Name: Ludwig (White)"
"Title: Useless Man, Cosmic Being, Cursed Man, Man of Destiny, Legendary Hunter, Holy Sword Wierer, Old God Hunter, Abundance Hunter, Patrol Hunter, Undead Hunter, Wisdom Hunter, Pleasure Hunter......
"Strength: Hunter Qualification Holder - (Rebirth Penalty)"
"Weapon: ???"
"Ability: ???"
"Introduction: Although you still don't know what abilities he has, you at least know that he can't even beat you now, and he's still a freak hunter who can't be killed."
……
"It's over."
"I lost my only chance to get rid of you."
"What will become of the human world next can only be determined by your thoughts."
As he spoke, Ludwig put away the emerald green glow of the Moonlight Sword in his hand, slowly turned around, and walked along the ancient city full of blood and ruins.
Seeing this, Lin Ye immediately rushed out of the thunder protection shield imposed on him by the thunder light, and relied on the superhuman speed that crushed ordinary people, and directly stopped in front of Ludvig who wanted to leave.
"You ...... guy"
What's up?
Want to run after fighting?
Moreover, you deliberately said a few unexplained words before you ran, so you have to be a disgusting riddler, right?
Ludwig silently looked at Lin Ye who stopped him in front of him:
"Don't bother."
"I have the power to regenerate the Old Gods in my body."
"Even if you kill me 10,000 times, you can't kill me completely, and I will still be resurrected in my current human form without limit."
Lin Ye decisively took out Evelyn's gun:
"Really?"
"Then I'm going to try it myself!"
Bang.
After the gunshots.
Ludwig slumped over the bloodied ruins of the city, but after only three seconds, he got up from the ground again, and the black hole in his head was gone.
Lin Ye didn't believe in evil, and summoned a pure white noble rappier, stabbing Ludwig several times in the body, but he still didn't let this guy die completely.
Immortal?
How can there be such a buggy ancient god ability?
Damn!
Doesn't this mean that a quarter of Lei Guang's power has been wasted?
Ludwig's face was expressionless:
"I said it earlier."
"You're just wasting your time."
"I've tried to kill myself tens of thousands of times before, but I've never succeeded, and with the strength you have now, it's even more impossible to kill me."
"Perhaps."
"You'll get a way to kill me once and for all in the future."
"But that's also for later."
Lin Ye was a little depressed:
"So what the hell are you? What do you mean by those words? Are you going to be a riddler to disgust me? ”
Ludwig raised his head slightly, the expression on his face was puzzled, and his tone was subtle:
"You didn't understand what I mean?"
Nonsense!
I didn't open the third view!
Hell, I know what you just mean by crackling and saying a bunch of inexplicable things!
Ludwig turned his head to look at the purple-haired woman who was slowly falling from the sky:
"But you already have the ...... tainted by the blood of the old gods."
Before he finished speaking, Ludwig seemed to realize something, and immediately spoke:
"Oh!"
"I see!"
"Isn't this woman a transcendent being from our world, but a transcendent creature from another world?"
"She hasn't been tainted by the blood of the Old Gods, this is her original transcendent power, not the power of the Old Gods bestowed upon her?"
Lin Ye: "......"
A flash of excitement flashed in Ludwig's eyes:
"So, don't you know the truth about the Blood Moon Dream Realm, and the matter of the blood of the ancient gods?"
Hearing this, Lin Ye put away the weapon on his body, clasped his hands around his chest, looked at Ludwig silently, did not answer this question, but told the other party what he meant with his expression.
Velocity!
Explain the situation to me!
Don't be those damn riddlermen!
Ludwig's tone became more serious:
"Let me ask you a few questions first!"
"Do you crave power?"
Lin Ye replied:
"This is not nonsense?"
"Whoever says that he does not desire power, does not desire to be extraordinary, is either a fool or a hypocrisy!"
Ludwig went on to ask:
"Second question."
"If the Old Gods were to go to war with humans, would you help humans, or would you help the Old Gods?"
Lin Ye immediately said:
"I'm a human, not an ancient god, why should I help the ancient gods and not humans?"
Ludwig asked again:
"But if you help humanity fight against the Old Gods, which will cause you to lose your supernatural powers forever and become a mortal with nothing again, will you still stand firmly on the side of humanity?"
Lin Ye: "......"
He hesitated.
Ludwig was not surprised by this:
"Follow your heart and tell me the real answer, I'm not your match right now anyway, no matter what answer you give me, it doesn't matter."
"And my original answer to this question can also tell you very clearly that it is to give up helping mankind and stand in the camp of the ancient gods."
"All the hunters I've asked."
"It's all the same answer."
"After experiencing the mystery of the blood soul energy, we can't go back."
"The blood of the old gods pollutes our spirits, making us addicted and trapped in the pleasure of this energy, unable to extricate ourselves."
"Of course."
"Maybe it's just an excuse."
"We are just reluctant to give up the power to control the lives of others at will."
Lin Ye: "......"
Although his mind is constantly telling him now that he will decisively give up his supernatural powers to help humanity fight against the ancient gods and become the savior of mankind.
But when the reality really becomes that extreme.
The devil knows if he can still follow his heart.
It's like, you know that gluing is a bad thing, but when there is a strong feeling in your body, can you really control yourself not to glue?
So.
Faced with this kind of problem that tests human nature.
Lin Ye only knew what he would choose when he really got to that time.
No matter how nice you say it now, it will only make people who see through the nature of the world think that you are hypocritical......
"Can't answer?"
"Very good, you are indeed not contaminated by the blood of the ancient gods, otherwise you will definitely choose to help the ancient gods without hesitation and retain this extraordinary power......"
The excitement in Ludwig's eyes grew stronger:
"Speaking of which."
"You should have figured it out."
"The blood soul energy in the Blood Moon Dream Realm, as well as the extraordinary power that makes you a hunter, all originate from the ancient gods."
"They are the ones who make us transcendent above the ordinary."
"And their purpose is to use the Blood Moon Dream Realm to cultivate hunters who can barely resist the blood contamination of the ancient gods."
"Let's keep getting stronger while keeping our sanity intact, and eventually become the container for them to break through dreams and come to reality."
"If you can't resist the contamination of the blood of the ancient gods."
"The hunter will lose consciousness and become a hunter maniac who knows only to kill, constantly hunting those of his own kind who have power, in order to feel the pleasure of the power of the old gods......"
Lin Ye suddenly interjected:
"Are you also tainted by the blood of the Old Gods?"
Ludwig did not deny:
"Yes."
"I sealed myself in this special Blood Moon dream."
"I can barely keep my sanity."
"If I were to return to reality, I would immediately become a hunter maniac, kill all the hunters I could find, and become an undead monster that endangers the real world."
Lin Ye analyzed:
"In other words, I'm different from you, I'm completely immune to the contamination of the blood of the ancient gods, and I'll never become a hunter maniac?"
Ludwig corrected:
"It's not that you're different from me, it's that you're different from all hunters."
"Those hunter believers cultivated by the ancient gods to this day, no matter how strong their talent is, no matter how strong their spirit is."
"As the level of the hunter increases, they will all be contaminated by the blood of the ancient gods, gradually lose their original consciousness, be dominated by bloodlust and killing, and become dangerous hunter lunatics."
"In order for them to become qualified containers, they must find a tipping point, that is, to obtain the strongest ancient god power that can be obtained under the condition of maintaining the last sanity."
"To put it simply, they are all incomplete, they all have a growth limit, and there is no way to get stronger all the time."
"And you can keep gaining new powers of the Old Gods."
"Get stronger without limits."
"With such a special constitution, either you will become the container of the superior who won the Blood Moon War and help it descend into reality with the strongest posture."
"Or...... You will defeat all the Superior and become the victor in the Blood Moon War, becoming the new Old God and Superior. ”
Lin Ye asked:
"Then what do you mean by ending reincarnation?"
Ludwig wondered:
"Huh?"
"What end reincarnation?"
"Did I just say those four words?"
Lin Ye: "......"
