Chapter 264 Tree (Part 1)
The feeling of fighting with my past self is terrible.
Zai Zhe narrowly avoided the incoming debris. Surrounded by white debris, he could hardly see anything else. His face was in those debris.
"Let's talk." In the strong wind, he spoke with difficulty. His throat was almost cut by glass fragments, and his cheeks were scratched with blood, but he still smiled. It was hard to tell what he was thinking. "Speaking of it, my ability is a domain, but after being deified, it becomes a rule. And you look so strange, why are you so weird?"
The glass fragments flying around him still had no reaction. If it weren't for the terrifying destructive power that was enough to shatter a person, it would have looked pretty at first glance.
Until, a hand came out from the glass that fell from behind, and pierced Zai Zhe's chest mercilessly. A figure appeared from behind, pressing on his back, and a cold and terrifying voice almost sounded in his ears, "Who are you?"
Broken glass, the suddenly extended cemetery, and densely packed coffins scattered all over the ground, making a terrifying "dong dong dong" sound.
"Anyway, it won't be you."
The smile on Zai Zhe's face disappeared. He wiped the blood off his cheek, opened his domain, and a long knife with a cold glow appeared in his palm. He chopped at the figure that emerged from the mirror. From behind him, a transparent shadow loomed, as if crossing the space, and stared at the figure in the mirror.
......
"This is really, ugly."
Wu Gaoyuan slowly narrowed his eyes and looked at the terrifying giant shadow not far away. It had dark, blood-red pupils, scales all over its body, and a snake head with blood gushing out. The shadow pressing down on him made him look so small.
“Is this still my black snake?”
Wu Gaoyuan stroked the black snake that was trembling slightly beside him, "I obviously prefer furry little animals, but all the creatures summoned around me are these cold creatures."
In all directions, humanoid creatures wearing pitch-black armor made clanging sounds and swords rang out.
Behind Wu Gaoyuan, there also appeared densely packed black armored warriors, and a huge three-headed eagle was circling in the sky, making a hissing sound.
The battle is about to begin.
......
There were flashes of lightning and thunder, and a sudden flash of white light.
Amid the wind and rain, a cold light suddenly appeared, and the sound of metal collision was crisp and loud.
"This look is really ridiculous?"
The unknown god in front of him laughed softly. There was no familiar trace on his broken face. It was just like a black hole with some skin fragments stuck outside.
"But am I not you?"
The speaking god strikes again.
The two sides kept fighting, and their afterimages were almost invisible in the rain.
......
"boom!"
A figure was knocked flying, and the moment he landed, he turned over and ran wildly in the original direction.
then,
"Rock, Paper, Scissors!"
The old lion looked at his clenched fist excitedly, and the god opposite looked at his cloth. The next second, the old lion turned sideways and punched out with a loud bang, accompanied by a sharp wind that broke through the air.
The god on the opposite side took a half step back and gave the lion elder a brilliant but cold smile.
"Come again!"
The lion master was not discouraged and continued to use rock-paper-scissors to decide the initiative of the next attack.
......
And the other side.
Zhang Chun looked at the silent earth a few meters away, his dark cloak fluttering slightly behind him.
Under the sky, everything is dark.
The next second, both sides suddenly attacked each other.
The earth cracked and the sky and the earth changed color.
......
Deep in the blood mist, in a dead silent space.
[Origin] Observing the battle outside through senses, he was silent for a while.
"They, are they fighting? Is it a fake match?"
He said slowly and confusedly.
Next to Him, a huge cocoon was slowly rising and falling, like a heart, gurgling with blood.
At the same time, outside.
A sudden heavy rain broke the tranquility.
The drizzling rain gradually changed from transparent to an ominous red.
It was like a bloody rain.
A bloody rain, containing a terrifying concentration of blood crystals that is enough to kill a person.
Barriers rose one after another, and the honeycomb-shaped light pink transparent film was full of dripping rain, making a sizzling sound, which made people? Heart? tremble with fear.
But fortunately, the multifunctional barrier that has evolved to the eighth generation is enough to intercept those strange rains, and the bases of different sizes and villages are all equipped with blood crystal pollution purifiers-second generation.
Those who didn't have time to rush back to the base and nearby villages could only hide in various shelters, hoping that the bloody rain would pass.
But this bloody rain lasted longer than anyone imagined.
One hour, two hours, three hours...
It rained for most of the day before it slowly stopped.
The sun gradually emerged from the clouds, bright, warm and dazzling.
Some young people ran out of the house to bask in the sun, and their wives in the house also looked relieved, but the next second, their smiles froze on their faces.
The young man outside the door who was exposed to the sun, starting from the top of his head, every inch of his skin exposed to the sun's rays was covered with strange scarlet crystals, as if alive. The crisp sound of "crackling" continued to ring out, as if something was gnawing at his flesh and blood.
The woman in the room? Trembling, she ran out the door, but she only hugged a cold and hard blood-red stone.
She let out a sharp cry.
Then, her feet began to rustle and blood crystals grew out of them.
The earth began to tremble, and dense cracks appeared. Countless blood-red tree roots quietly emerged from deep underground, wreaking havoc on the ground like living creatures. They entangled the stones, devoured the ruins, and invaded the forest...
There was wind in the forest, and the leaves rustled, as if whispering something.
On the crown of a lush tree, a pair of golden eyes suddenly lit up.
That? In an instant, deep in the clouds, above the sky, that? oppressive and heavy dark red sky was completely exposed in the air.
The intertwined vines, branches, and fallen leaves were rich in blood, like terrifying arms reaching out from hell, entwining and interweaving wantonly, cutting the sky into pieces, which was extremely weird.
People hiding in various corners looked up at the sky through the windows, as if they were witnessing a doomsday scene, and were so terrified that they could hardly make a sound.
until--
Countless golden lights appeared from the horizon, like bright meteors, streaking through the bloody sky, and falling towards the human concentration area.
The sky and the earth changed color, and there was a dazzling golden light.
The first golden pillar fell from the sky, and the air current it created tore and engulfed the blood-colored tree roots in all directions. The rising top pushed the blood-colored branches that fell from the sky back up again.
Then, the second one, the third one, the fourth one...
Under the dark red sky, the golden pillars flying towards various places attracted everyone's attention.
They poked their heads out of the room, looking at the dark red sky that was lit up by the sun like a shooting star, and made wishes with fear and expectation.
The sky and the earth are magnificent, as if there are gods.
......
Cui Zhiyong raised his head suddenly. The yellow sand in the sky blocked the sunlight. He could vaguely see a golden light, which seemed to circle over his head and hit heavily at a place not far away!
The ground rumbles and shakes?
Cui Zhiyong opened his mouth wide. He was sitting on the top of a moving fortress, and not far away was a giant that was gradually stopping.
"That? What is...?"
At this moment, screams suddenly rang out from underground.
Cui Zhiyong was about to go down to check the situation when the surrounding space began to fluctuate. The system rushed out and shouted, "Help me, help me! There are too many, I can't spread all the inhibitors out!"
"It's okay, Boss. Just go ahead! We'll take care of it here!"
Cui Zhiyong didn't react for a moment, and subconsciously looked down, but saw a few familiar faces. Those people waved their hands at him, indicating that they would handle the situation here... Among these people, some were from the Kingdom Knights, some were from the resistance army, and some were ordinary residents of the Hidden Lantern Society. After the battle in the desert, different forces gradually began to help each other.
Cui Zhiyong took a deep breath and realized that Yun Yan and Zhang Chun who were taken away were more important, so he gritted his teeth and made a decision.
"Walk?!"
When he was brought to an unfamiliar space by the system, he belatedly asked, "By the way, who are you?"
"Yun Yan's personal imaginary friend." The system replied very quickly, "Cui Zhiyong, you want a heavy rain, a rainstorm that is big enough to cover this space."
Cui Zhiyong looked at the endless blood-red space in front of him, his face changed drastically, "I'm just a small A-level psychic! You think too highly of me——"
System: "Please overestimate yourself. As one of the three great families, you are capable of causing such a heavy rain."
Cui Zhiyong was silent, "What are the three families?"
But in the end, he gritted his teeth and agreed, "Forget it, I'll try."
Then, the system brought out boxes of liquid glass jars filled with inhibitors and opened them one by one.
At first glance, there seemed to be thousands of bottles.
Cui Zhiyong felt his hands trembling, and water masses appeared from his palms, merging the liquid of those inhibitors, and then controlling those water masses to rise continuously, rising until they reached the highest point, and then, thunder exploded, wind and rain suddenly arose, and heavy rain poured down.
as well as,
"Rise with the wind."
A lazy voice sounded from the back.
Cui Zhiyong looked at the guy from the Wild Dog Organization and rolled his eyes expressionlessly.
The rainstorm was moving rapidly in all directions from the area where they were, covering more and more areas, and becoming more and more dense.
The scarlet mist that was surging on the ground began to retreat, and the twisted blood-red vines seemed to be unable to avoid it and retreated into the shadows.
......
The pain of dying came one after another.
Zhang Chun clenched the arm of the Earth that was only holding his throat. The other party's silence and scrutiny made him have a strange guess.
"Are you judging whether I am the most suitable chess piece?" He said in a faint hoarse voice from his throat.
[Earth] did not make a sound, but the strength in his palm increased instead. He was killing himself in this timeline bit by bit.
But at this moment, a rain came.
A timely rain.
Cold, fishy blood fell from the sky.
In an instant, both sides of the ground were soaked.
Zhang Chun suddenly laughed? out loud, and coughed non-stop. He? could see himself in the past timeline, when the god called [Earth] bowed his head, his? eyes were empty, strange, and cold.
"What were you thinking when you chose to kill your past companions?"
[The Earth] is silent.
"...I will think about whether my death can atone for those sins, or how I can wash away that blood if I continue to live. What about you, [Earth]? Is there something unsettling deep in your soul?"
The heavy rain poured down, and the inhibitors mixed in it merged into his body, suppressing his increasingly manic aura and bringing him a moment of clarity.
Zhang Chun, who was lying on the ground, stopped smiling, raised his hand to lift up his bangs, revealing a pair of eyes that gradually turned dark red.
In an instant, the ground behind him collapsed. Taking advantage of the opponent's unpreparedness, Zhang Chun decisively seized control of this area and attacked the Earth without mercy.
"I still don't agree that you are me in another sense."
——Even now, he can also be called [Earth].
…
Several people in the ruined city were taken to another mysterious space to fight against their past deified selves.
Passing through the blood mist all around, they arrived at the place where the [Origin] was.
It was still a vast expanse of scarlet space, with blood-colored mist lingering in every corner of the air. A blood-colored giant tree that looked like a transparent crystal almost occupied the entire field of vision, with its entrenched blood-colored roots intertwined and covering the entire ground of the space. In the height, the dense blood-colored leaves were shining with a cold and strange light under the weak light.
In front of the giant tree, a figure was floating.
He floated quietly there, looking down at the figures that walked out of the blood mist.
"Congratulations, you have arrived before us."
"but……"
"After I kill you, who will know you were there?"
Zhang Chun looked around, but did not see Yun Yan.
Finally, he slowly lowered his head.
Below the [Origin], under that giant blood tree, is a "cocoon" entangled by blood-colored vines.
