Chapter 318: Answers to Three Questions
A somewhat unexpected discovery......
Yanluge found that the "Fire Dragon Form Alienation" from Caroline and the "Power of Death" that he had previously analyzed were unexpectedly compatible, so fit that he could even superimpose the power of death on the dragon fire to form a new class of alienation and specialization called "Fire and Death Dragon".
As a result, Joy attached the power of death to the dragon fire, turning it into a dragon fire with death characteristics, and successfully destroyed the black mud mass that the evil spirit had built with the power of life.
Yes, the fact that evil spirits can turn into disgusting-looking black mud is actually the effect of "life force".
But "life force" doesn't mean it's all black mud.
In fact, the role of the "life force" is somewhat similar to that of the "second brain" in the specialized route, and the function of the second brain is to form a secondary thinking organ other than the brain, which can maintain the existence of the will to life even when the main thinking brain loses its function.
For example, if the second brain is placed on the original spirit, the original spirit can be separated from the body and think independently. For example, by placing the second brain in the palm of the hand, the palm of the hand retains the will after the body is destroyed.
The scope of application of "life force" is a little broader than that of "second brain", but the core is "the existence that acts on living things and maintains the will to live".
It is by using the "life force" that the evil spirit separates its flesh and skeleton into two parts, forming a real body and a false body.
And the "power of death" that acts on dead things is the other pole of the "life force".
After the evil spirit allowed a small cloud of black mud to invade Yan Luge's body, it tried to destroy and eat his body as a spiritual material.
But the song of words is faster than it.
He used the power of death he had obtained earlier to erase the black mud composed of the life force, and attached the power of death to the dragon fire, destroying the black mud that enveloped him in one fell swoop.
As for why the power of death can be fused and superimposed with dragon fire, it belongs to another set of rules of the transcendent world, and Yan Luge has discovered from the wisdom of his predecessors that non-standard transcendent abilities and ancient magic can be magically compatible across borders.
In the process of being imprisoned, he obtained the two powers of "life force" and "material power" by devouring black mud, and easily collected all of Ancient Niro's magic.
Now, the newly-born "Dragon of Fire and Death" stomped on the shattered skull, holding down the true body of the evil spirit with one paw, and staring at the evil spirit with its cold vertical pupils unique to reptiles.
Death-wielding flames burned on his scales and spread out along the black mud under his claws, like normal flames burning along the pouring oil.
And where this flame scorched, the black mud that had been flowing was scorched, hardened, and broken, and lost its vital characteristics.
Under the claws of Yanlu Song, the black mud monsters and skeletons, which are the main bodies of evil spirits, also slowly lost their vitality in the flames.
"Answer me!" The ferocious "dragon of fire and death" roars.
The demon sneered sarcastically, "It seems that I underestimated you. But even if you can kill me here, you won't be able to stop me. ”
"What did you say?"
But the evil spirit was no longer silent.
It is as if since that declaration of longing for freedom, it has lost the mood of explanation and justification.
There are some less important desires that can be generously stated, but there are some secrets that are hidden in the deepest part of the heart that do not need to be told to anyone.
When it was pressed under the claws of Yanluge and surrounded by the flames of death, all its reactions were exactly the same as Fangcai's Yanluge - thinking calmly and waiting calmly.
…… This is the attitude of having hole cards elsewhere and having a confident turnaround.
Yan Luge was a little irritable, and he exerted his strength under his claws again, and the flames that ignited roasted the broken bones all over the ground into scorched bones, and also burned the flowing black mud into dry and hard crumbs.
He brought the skull of the evil spirit to his eyes, lowered his eyes, and looked at the empty hole in the socket: "Since you are still lucky, let me tell you......
“…… In turn, start with the last and initial question. ”
After a slight pause, Yan Luge seemed to think of something, and the posture of picking up the skull became a little softer, but the violent killing intent in the blood-red pupils was even worse.
He began to say, "The Evil Spirit, the King of the Dead, or another Sur VII......
"I have seen a person in Xiao Qi's memory, a priestess who has been with you for decades and finally died for you.
"I think you're probably in love with her."
It all started 4,000 years ago.
In the last decades of Sur VII's battle as the deceased, there was a priest who always accompanied him.
At first, she was a lively and bright girl, but she voluntarily gave up her life in the outside world for her and stayed in its tomb all day long.
Later, she grew into an elegant and quiet noblewoman, and there were always many people who fell in love with her looks and temperament, but she would only smile and shake her head, and then quietly returned to the mausoleum.
Later, she became a gray-haired old woman, and she even needed to walk with crutches, but she wiped the coffin with her dry hands like tree bark with meticulous movements, and her eyes were as gentle as autumn water.
- She was its priest, to whom she dedicated her life, to the king named "Sur VII".
- And the cold spirit who can't do anything but fight, slowly falls in love with her in the long time they get along.
"I guessed one thing wrong, evil spirit, you were not born of the 'curse of Pharaoh'.
"You were born four thousand years ago, at the prayer of the priests."
The priest had held the coffin and said expectantly, "If only you could speak."
She said, "How I wish you could be truly resurrected and become a real person."
She said, "That way, I'll have a friend."
The coffin of Sur VII was just an empty coffin.
But in her thoughts, there was a humanoid object slowly forming in the coffin—a new spirit type.
It is impossible to be "truly resurrected" in the transcendent realm, so the person born in the coffin never wakes up and becomes her friend.
By the time the priest came of age, she had even given up her childish thoughts as a girl, and subconsciously admitted the death of Sur VII, so the humanoid spirit slowly turned into a mummy.
Later, the gods descended and the aura was cut off.
The priest committed suicide after being contaminated by the xenomorph in the form of a two-headed snake, but after his death, he still donated his last spiritual power, and used his flesh and blood to draw a closed circle in the tomb, creating a small enclosed space rich in spiritual power for it.
And because of her death, it awakened the true spirit, and once hunted pollutants in a rage, and finally the broken coffin was dragged into the tomb by the high priest, and fell into a waiting and sleeping for four thousand years.
Yan Luge stared at the scorched yellow skeleton in the flames, his eyes seemed to be able to penetrate everything, and he saw the most essential side of the evil spirit: "The spirit that awakened the true spirit four thousand years ago is not only Xiao Qi with the golden statue coffin as the body, but also you as the corpse in the coffin.
"But you have taken different paths.
"You love her more than the world, so you go into madness and desperate to resurrect her.
"And Xiao Qi loves the world more than her, so it desperately suppresses you and doesn't let you get up from the coffin.
"For four thousand years, Xiao Qi's strength has always been far superior to you, so you haven't been able to come out.
"Until modern times, your existence was distorted and strengthened again by the 'Curse of the Pharaohs', so you managed to push the coffin open and stand before me.
That was the answer to my first question.
"What do you want to do?
"—you want to resurrect her.
"—Resurrect your loved ones."
