Chapter 755 Key
The brave warrior Ailezan has also been infected by Huang.
The Source Star is now full of traces of desolation. In such an environment, it is difficult not to be infected after fighting with a condemned tribe for such a long time.
Before leaving Yuanxing, La killed the brave man first to prevent him from turning into a wild beast in the chaos.
The Demon King has thick skin and strong flesh, and no one can kill him except the brave. Even if he turns into a wild beast, it does not affect the brave's crusade against him.
Ai Leizan looked at his palm with a confused look on his face.
Seeing this, Yu Cang sighed quietly and said nothing.
Even if there was no Huang, Ai Leizan would not live for long.
The attributes of the World Shadow restricted La, and he couldn't use it to release a flawless resurrection spell. Originally, it was already the limit for Ailezan to hold on until defeating the Demon King.
"Lord Sun God, I... my head... feels so dizzy... I think that valley is so beautiful... Is there any treasure in it?"
"You're tired." La walked forward and patted Erezhan's body gently, "Get some sleep... You'll be fine when you wake up."
"Sleeping... here?"
"Well, go to sleep. The Demon King is dead, it's safe here."
"Okay... then, good night..."
Before Ai Leizan could finish his words, he sat down dejectedly, then fell to the ground and fell into a deep sleep.
LA: “He won’t wake up again.”
No matter from which angle, Ai Leizan is doomed to die.
The best outcome is to become a condemned person like the Demon King Caesar.
However, Ailezan doesn't seem to have such a single and persistent desire, so there is a high probability that he will turn into a wild beast and then die.
In recognition of Erezhan's help to them, Ra would let him pass away in a dream as he wished.
Yu Cang walked forward and looked at La with some concern: "Are you okay?"
"……rest assured."
Lamo clenched his fist.
Signs of desolation had also appeared in his palms.
Yes, he was also infected with Huang.
"It's just that this body has become desolate, but I'm still me."
Now, La is no longer the god of Yuanxing, so he will no longer be protected by Yuanxing. It is normal for him to be infected by Huang.
Fortunately, he still has the soul card system to back him up. When the time comes, he just needs to return to the soul card and everything will be fine.
And this body - which was already on the verge of collapse, became desolate, and changed, so the impact was not significant.
"let's go."
"……Um."
Yu Cang followed and stepped into the Lost Land.
This place looks like a very ordinary valley.
Not to mention it is on the source star, even if the valley is placed on the blue star, there will be no sense of incongruity.
The ground is covered with weeds and the terrain is rugged. The low hills on both sides are sparsely planted with unknown trees. This kind of scenery is too common. If you go to the countryside and find a piece of wild mountain or ridge, you will find countless such valleys.
However, such a valley, in the current situation... is very strange.
Just now, the battle between the brave man and the demon king almost affected half of the source star, but the Lost Land in the center of the battlefield was not affected at all.
Moreover, Yu Cang did not discover it.
And, putting that aside.
Although the weeds and trees in the valley look very insignificant.
But... I'm afraid this is the only place on this planet where plants exist.
Yu Cang tensed his body and stepped into the Lost Land. He thought he would feel something strange, but nothing happened.
La just silently maintained the protective shield and did not make any unnecessary reactions - obviously, he did not sense the possible danger.
"Don't be so nervous. I've been to this place many times."
After completing the basic danger check, La went straight to the center of the valley.
There is a stone platform, which is the only man-made structure in the valley.
“This is the ruins.”
La placed his palm on the stone platform and waved it gently. A breeze blew by, blowing away all the dust on it.
Ra's magic shield can cover the entire valley, and there is no strong wind.
But judging from the condition of the stone platform and vegetation, the Lost Land might not have been affected by the external environment before they came.
"I've tried many times before, but this stone platform didn't respond. Now... Yu Cang, you try it."
"good."
Yu Cang nodded slightly.
Then, his eyes fell on the entry recorder and started an entry extraction.
Seven days.
A full seven-day countdown!
Yu Cang's eyes narrowed.
This place is indeed not simple.
However, he didn't have that much time to wait for the entry extraction to be completed.
Thinking of this, Yu Cang took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and entered the starry sky vision.
…
Seen from the perspective of the starry sky, there is nothing special here, and the rhythm is ridiculously thin.
Yu Cang found the rhythm of the stone platform.
In terms of quality, the rhythm of this part may not even be as good as ordinary quality.
Yu Cang's rhythmic body stretched out his hand and reached into the rhythm. Layers of rhythmic sounds continued to burst out, but even if Yu Cang looked deeper into the Starry Sky Vision, he did not find any clues.
Everything here is too ordinary.
But, the entry recorder will not lie.
Buzz...
Layer upon layer of rhythmic ripples spread out, and Kong swam to Yu Cang's feet. He lowered his head, and his trembling tentacles also drooped.
Xu followed suit and lay down on the other side.
Yu Cang looked over and said, "Kong, do you feel anything strange?"
"Scholar, I..."
"I have something to say!" Xu raised his head, his antennae raised high, "I'm hungry and want to eat."
Sora: "Preface!"
Yu Cang was suddenly at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Seeing Xu's proud look, for a moment, he really thought Xu had discovered some secret.
Yu Cang was not anxious. He just leaned over, took out two pieces of spiritual food, and placed them in front of Kong and Xu.
Then, he touched the heads of the two insects.
"It's okay, don't worry. Just feel it carefully and try to find the special feature here... If anyone finds it, I can grant them a wish."
“Okay!”
Xu shouted loudly, and then immediately buried his head in eating.
I don't know what's going on.
Looking at this scene, Yu Cang smiled lightly, and then fell into thought.
La had talked to himself before.
He had studied the key for a long time and tried various methods, but nothing worked.
But in the end, on the giant sun tree, he figured out one thing.
Perhaps, letting the insect eat it is the correct way to use the key!
After all, it was all just a coincidence.
How could such an important item be so easily devoured by the Sense Bugs? Furthermore, La had originally added numerous protections to the key; it was impossible for two Sense Bugs to break through those spells.
Any scholar who can use the Starry Sky Vision will basically use a dimensionality reduction attack to deal with the Insect Identifier.
After eating the key, Sora and Sequence also underwent magical changes.
They have broken away from the uncontrollable nature of the Insectoid race, and have gained self-control, free from the interference of those desires.
Kong made a vow from then on that he would only eat ownerless rhythms. For this reason, he almost starved to death in Cang's Ice City.
Moreover, after eating the key, Kong and Xu each gained very magical abilities.
Backtrack.
The void can trace itself back in space.
And the sequence... can be traced back in time.
These two abilities are undoubtedly top-level abilities!
Yu Cang began to think.
If eating the key is the correct way to use the key, then... are there any secrets hidden in these two abilities?
Backtracking...
While Yu Cang was thinking, Kong and Xu had already finished eating the Lingzi food.
Now, Yu Cang's cooking skills have reached perfection, and the Lingzi dishes he makes are delicious.
After eating, Xu felt so comfortable that he lay on his back on the ground and kept patting his belly.
"Delicious, hehe... delicious... Oh, right!" Xu suddenly turned over, "Scholar, I wanted to say that just now!"
Yu Cang looked at Xu: "What do you want to say?"
"In this valley... I feel my abilities have been strengthened..."
"Oh?" Yu Cang raised his brows slightly, "To what extent has it been strengthened?"
"Feel……"
Xu walked to the side and looked far into the sky.
She carefully sensed it for a moment, and then said uncertainly, "It feels like my ability can already cover... the entire planet..."
Yu Cang: “……?”
"Indeed," Kong Ye added, "Scholar, my ability has also been enhanced... Now, I feel like I can trace back to the entire Source Star, and the scope of my ability is constantly expanding. I don't know when it will stop."
“…Seriously?”
Yu Cang was greatly shocked.
The abilities of emptiness and order are very strong, but they are only strong in essence, not in magnitude.
Generally speaking, their backtracking can only trace back themselves. If they bring others along, the consumption will increase exponentially.
I originally thought that Sora and Judgment's abilities had been enhanced, to the point where they could carry a few more people, but now...
You tell me it can cover the entire Source Star?
Suddenly, a glimmer of inspiration flashed in Yu Cang's eyes.
He turned his head and met La's eyes.
"Could it be..."
La nodded seriously: "It seems that my original guess was correct... This is indeed the real way to use the key."
"Did you discover this trait at the beginning?"
La shook his head. "Back then, this place didn't have the effect of increasing insect recognition abilities. I've come to understand. I must have come here at the wrong time."
"opportunity?"
“That’s right…” La’s eyes were dim as he spoke slowly, “The time when this key can really be used… is when the Source Star is completely eroded by the wilderness and is almost destroyed, and when the last hero kills the last demon king.
"Or rather, until this moment, this place can truly be called the 'Lost Land'."
Just now, La carefully examined the rhythm of this valley and compared it with his previous memories, and indeed found many differences.
The rhythm here is changing.
And... the changes should have just begun.
If we calculate from the time, it was when the hero was infected by Huang and was about to die!
Therefore, the "Lost Land" mentioned by the old acquaintance does not refer to a place name in the spatial sense... but the source star in the temporal sense!
Only when this place is completely "lost" will the real ruins appear!
Yu Cang took a deep breath: "In other words, now is the time for us to use this key?"
La nodded, "Right now."
At this time.
Kong suddenly said, "Scholar, the enhancement of my abilities... seems to have reached its limit."
"How far can you go now?"
"I can also trace back the worlds around me." After pondering for a moment, Kong hesitated and said, "Within the range of my ability... there are approximately forty-two worlds?"
Hearing this number, Yu Cang was certain.
Yes, that should be correct.
Doesn’t that string of coordinates point to the forty-two worlds?
These forty-two worlds are just like the source star. Countless people have traveled through them over the years, and the dramas of heroes and demon kings have been staged there countless times.
"Wait a minute." La suddenly grabbed Yu Cang's hand, "Before you open the ruins... I need to prepare some spells. There might be a fight later."
Yu Cang looked at La and nodded gently: "No problem."
…
After a while, La used the shadow of the world to prepare all the spells for battle.
At this point, there was only an hour left before La's body collapsed... maybe even shorter.
La didn't know what they would encounter after opening the key, so he could only make the worst-case scenario plan first... In an emergency, he had to ensure Yu Cang's safe departure.
This time, no matter what Yu Cang said, he could not stop La's decision.
The spells he has prepared now, in addition to being used in combat, can also be transformed into magic circles for refining magic wands when necessary.
At that time, seeing that the situation was not good, La would immediately activate the magic circle, absorb the remaining corpses of the beasts in the giant sun tree, combine them with his own rhythmic body, refine them into a magic staff, and activate the great return to city technique to send Yu Cang away.
As long as Yu Cang is alive, there is hope.
And Yu Cang... was also very nervous at this time.
The starry sky was so vast, and there were countless great beings in it. Facing the unknown beyond the ruins, he had no confidence at all.
That is a powerful force that can cover forty-two worlds!
It seems... for Yu Cang, it is still too early for such a situation.
But, there is no way.
The battle between the hero and the demon king became the last straw that broke the camel's back for Source Star. If they left now, Source Star would probably become a cloud of chaos tomorrow, and it would be irreversible.
And the so-called ruins will never be opened again.
So today is the last chance to open the ruins.
Yu Cang must obtain information related to the Emperor Star from it!
He could have chosen to accept La's suggestion and leave first, ignoring this place, but... then what?
The Emperor Star is too mysterious. In the entire starry sky, the only clue related to it may be this one. If you miss it now, then when Yu Cang grows up and the Emperor Star truly shows its fangs, everything will still be over!
At that time... the price Yu Cang had to pay might be even more serious, far more than just one person, all his comrades might be sacrificed.
Therefore, he must seize every opportunity, as his current situation does not give him any leeway.
Yu Cang’s current decision is a gamble!
This was the first time he faced such an irresistible unknown.
