Chapter 394: The Man in the Painting: A Two-Dimensional Creature (Part II)
In the mountains of Yukong.
This cave is located underground, and the walls are covered in those strange inkblots.
Especially the stone wall in front of Chen Jing.
There's a lot of ink.
But for some reason, unlike the ink on the other stone walls, they do not spread at will, but leave a large area of white space on the stone wall as if they were attracted by some force.
In the center of this blank area.
The ink is intertwined and intertwined into long lines, like the handwriting of a painter......
Chen Jing saw a tree.
There was also a man standing under a tree.
The tree outlined by these inks is more than ten meters tall, and the "line man" standing under the tree is about the same height as Chen Jing.
It only has extremely distinct limbs and the main torso structure, and the head is simply represented by a vertical line, not to mention the detailed facial features, which are even inferior to the stickmen written by some elementary school students.
"it...... It couldn't be this thing behind me......"
In Chen Jing's incredulous gaze, the "stickman" outlined by the ink on the stone wall was swaying from side to side, as if he had just learned to walk.
Yes.
This stickman on the stone wall...... Seems to be alive.
This strange life form Chen Jing didn't say he had seen it, he hadn't even heard of it!
"No wonder you can't feel its breath......"
Although the "he" in Chen Jing's mind was also a little surprised, it was not as unbelievable as Chen Jing's ghost, because he had seen this strange creature more than once.
"Don't tell me it's a two-thorn ape!"
"Actually, from a certain point of view, your metaphor is correct, it is indeed a creature from another dimension...... Or rather, two-dimensional creatures. ”
At this point, "his" voice paused slightly, as if he was rummaging through his memory for information about such creatures.
"In the old days, a very small number of creatures had the ability to travel between high and low dimensions, and even fewer of them had the ability to influence three-dimensional space in a two-dimensional world......"
"Is it the latter?"
Chen Jing stared at the stone wall swaying like a stickman who couldn't stand steadily, and the vigilance in his heart was even worse.
Although the stickman did not continue to attack him after he approached the stone wall, his intuition told Chen Jing...... The guy on the stone wall was dangerous, and the reason why it stopped for a while was probably just observing itself.
"It should be."
While he explained to Chen Jing, his tone gradually became puzzled, as if he had never seen this type of dimensional creature.
"But those two-dimensional creatures I met ...... Much more complex than its structure...... And most of them are not humanoid...... How is this thing you come across like a joke, like a special stick figure! ”
As soon as the words fell, "he" seemed to remember something, and hurriedly added.
"Of course, there is another possibility...... It wasn't like this at the beginning, but because its strength had declined too much, it had to simplify its body as much as possible to maintain its life. ”
As soon as he heard "him" say this, Chen Jing immediately understood.
This "person" on the stone wall must have experienced the same embarrassment as Bai Aji, and it can even be said that it is not easy for him to barely survive to this era...... Maybe it was sleeping before?
If this were not the case, the people of the [Great Buddha Mother Temple] would have discovered it a long time ago, after all, the two monks had said that this underground space suddenly appeared in a short period of time, maybe because it suddenly woke up......
"The dimensional traversal you used to use deep space energy to travel through the dimension was almost all of the same level, just shuttling back and forth in different three-dimensional spaces...... "He said these words in a more solemn tone, as if reminding Chen Jing, "The complexity of two-dimensional space is no worse than that of three-dimensional space, and I am afraid it will be a little difficult for you to get rid of it." ”
"Then don't get rid of it, I'll just take the Bodhi fetus and withdraw it, you hurry up and think of a way to get rid of those things......" Chen Jing thought clearly, after all, it won't be long before people from the monastery will come, and it would be better to leave this kind of trouble to those monks to deal with.
"It wants to pull the Bodhi fetus into the two-dimensional space, so you can't move them now, even if you forcibly use the power of deep space to cut them, you can only take away half of the body of the Bodhi fetus, and the effect of killing them will be gone."
Hearing "him" say this, Chen Jing suddenly had a headache.
"Can you just kill it?"
"Yes." The voice in his head became more and more serious, as if he realized the seriousness of this matter, "It doesn't do it with you now, because it feels that it is not sure that it can kill you, so it simply uses you as air, so as not to waste its own energy...... But you don't have a chance to spend time with it! ”
“……”
"Once the Bodhi fetus is eaten up by it, it will not be so easy to treat the old man's injuries again."
At this moment, before "his" words fell, the light condensed in Chen Jing's hand had already shot towards the stickman in the stone wall.
The dazzling golden beam of light hit the stone wall without a sound...... Then disappeared without a trace.
Yes.
Chen Jing suddenly understood why "he" would say that it was a bit difficult to get rid of it.
As far as the current situation is concerned, ordinary attacks are not even affecting the space eroded by it, not to mention harming its body, and the stone wall hit by the beam is unscathed and remains the same.
"Why can its attacks affect three-dimensional space...... My attack was directly immune to it......" Chen Jing asked with a frown.
"This is the trait of creatures that can compress themselves into two dimensions, they were extremely tricky in the old days, and the average old creature was reluctant to provoke them......"
According to "him", this creature can disgust you, if not kill you, because your attacks on it are ineffective unless you can compress yourself into two dimensions into the space where it is......
"So you know what to do, right?"
"Are you sure I won't have a problem doing this?"
Chen Jing was a little drumming in his heart, because the same level dimension crossing and different levels of dimension crossing are completely different things, if you want to turn yourself into a "two-dimensional creature", you can only let the current body be energized first, and then detonate the deep space energy to make yourself fall into a state of collapse.
This extreme way of dealing with oneself has been recorded in the "power" of the deep space inheritance, but Chen Jing has never practiced it, and he just knows the general operation method and process......
"Hurry up!"
He kept urging, and seemed to be more anxious than Chen Jing, for fear that those Bodhi fetuses would be eaten clean by this guy.
"I remember that this creature tends to have a three-dimensional shell, and it might be easier if you could prioritize it......"
He paused a little at this point, and then changed the subject as if to appease Chen Jing.
"But it doesn't matter, look at it reduced to this kind of stickman shape, I guess its shell has long disappeared, I didn't see it when I helped you look around just now, don't hesitate to rush directly!"
Chen Jing couldn't help but sigh, only feeling that he was a little unlucky.
If you are lucky, everything goes well, maybe you have already got the Bodhi fetus and started to rush back, and you can still encounter this kind of thing.
In the end, you can only gamble!
"What a bad luck ......"
Chen Jing sighed, and his condensed body gradually became transparent.
"I really didn't expect that the second thorn ape like me would turn into a paper man this day......"
