Chapter 387 The Pale King, the second additional rules!
"Cooperation... I can help you fight Wuxin, but you will also need to pay a price that matches it."
This was the voice that came from the other end after Xia Lin connected with Yuan Zhuo.
Yuan Zhuo, previous generation human race sequence 28.
This is a mediocre ranking, proving that Yuan Zhuo has certain strength, but it is not that strong.
In fact, Yuan Zhuo himself is a very inconspicuous person.
At least Xia Lin had never heard of this person having any amazing achievements, or being involved in any major events.
In the human race sequence, although his ranking is not low, his presence is indeed too low.
It was not until the start of the Ten Thousand Races Sequence War that this person really caught the attention of the others.
Because it was at this time that everyone discovered that this person's butt was sitting on the side of the Original Dark Side, and he was also the only Ashes Walker summoned by the Original Dark Side on the Six Pillars Summoning Day.
…
In addition to transmitting sound, remote communication cards can also transmit images.
This allowed Xia Lin to see Yuan Zhuo's appearance.
It can only be described as unattractive...it really has no special features.
And his eyes and demeanor are not like those of the madman on the original dark side, which are not hateful or frightening.
It's still ordinary, without any characteristics.
The same is true for timbre.
Xia Lin had no choice but to guess Yuan Zhuo's thoughts and explore Yuan Zhuo's true character from the content of the conversation.
"You'll help me deal with Wuxin? You?"
In fact, in the preliminary stage of the Ten Thousand Races Sequence War, Yuan Zhuo showed considerable combat effectiveness, and his final score was fixed at level 853, ranking in the top ten.
But judging from the assessment replay, it’s a joke to say that Yuan Zhuo can compete with Wu Xin.
He couldn't pull out a single hair of Wuxin.
Yuan Zhuo dispelled Xia Lin's doubts with a few words.
"The Black Domain is my home. You may not know that my home planet is in the Black Domain, under the rule of the Pale King."
"And the subject of this communication request is not me, but the ruler of the Black Domain, the controller of the original force, His Majesty the Great Pale King!"
In the distance, after Yuan Zhuo finished speaking, another gentle voice slowly sounded in the bright and spacious palace.
"I think I am qualified to help you deal with Wuxin."
The one who spoke was the twelfth-level being named the Pale King, who was standing behind Yuan Zhuo.
It is impossible to get a full picture of this person.
On the communication card's screen, Xia Lin could only see a sticky, twisted blood-colored afterimage.
A bloody afterimage lingered on the throne, and the eerie, bloody, and evil aura formed a sharp contrast with the bright and spacious palace.
But there was indeed no malice in that gentle voice.
After thinking about it, Xia Lin gave a response.
"Level 12 is of course enough to qualify. I just don't know what Yuan Zhuo just said about the so-called matching price, what does that mean?"
Yuan Zhuo didn't need to respond this time.
The Pale King has replaced Yuan Zhuo and become the subject of communication with Xia Lin.
Amid the bloody shadow, a gentle voice sounded again.
"The price is just a small favor that benefits both you and me..."
"For example?"
"Hunting the evil god... I think this shouldn't be a difficult task for the evil god nemesis who is famous in our Righteous Alliance, right?"
Xia Lin was stunned. The three words "Righteous Alliance" brought back memories of Xia Lin in the Eight Guardian Cinders.
What surprised Xia Lin even more was the word "we" from the mouth of the Pale King.
Xia Lin didn't need to ask, the voice of the Pale King was already heard in the blood shadow.
"Yes, I, to be precise, my clone is one of the elders of the Righteous Alliance."
"So fundamentally speaking, you and I are in the same group."
This relationship is a bit far-fetched...
Xia Lin knew about the Righteousness League. In the Eight Guardian Zone, he had formed a fairly deep friendship with Di Yun, now Xia Tian, of the Righteousness League.
Before the end of the Eight Guardian Zone, Xia Tian invited Xia Lin to join the Righteousness League, and Xia Lin nodded in agreement. However, due to the inconvenience of going out, he did not formally come into contact with the Righteousness League or other members of the League.
He can barely be considered a peripheral member of the Righteous Alliance.
From this perspective, what the Pale King said about them being in the same group actually makes some sense.
What puzzled Xia Lin was, how did you, a level 12 boss from the original dark side, get into the Righteous Alliance?
Is your position wrong?
Perhaps sensing Xia Lin's doubts, a light laugh was heard from the blood shadow.
"I guess you don't know the relationship between us, the Level 12s of the Original Dark Side, and the Evil God, or even the Original Dark Side itself."
…
A communication card is not enough to support a long conversation. Fortunately, as the number one non-evil god of level 12 in the Black Domain, the Pale King has too many "consumables" to support Yuan Zhuo's continuous use of the communication card.
While listening, Xia Lin did not waste any time and headed towards the Fallen Star Cluster, preparing to meet up with Donald and others first, and discuss other matters after gathering people.
Although the Pale King showed a certain degree of goodwill in the conversation just now, Xia Lin is not the fool he used to be. It is impossible for him to change his plan just because of a few words and go alone to meet the level 12 boss of the Black Domain.
Just as Xia Lin was moving quickly, he slowly sorted out the Pale King's demands from the conversation with him, and the relationship between him, the twelfth-level evil god of the original dark side, and the twelfth-level professionals.
"We are a bunch of thieves and thieves."
This is the essence of the original dark side's twelfth-level professional.
…
When a professional is promoted to level 12, the most important thing he needs is a cosmic loophole!
Now that the new universe is almost complete, apart from the Six Pillars, almost no one can provide new universe loopholes.
Just as Xia Lin expected, even if the original dark side had no intelligence, the status of the six pillars still existed.
Due to its special nature, cosmic loopholes caused by the conflict between the new and old cosmic rules will appear from time to time in the dark world, where the original dark side is located.
"This is the greatest opportunity in the Black Domain!"
The ticket to level 12!
It seems that this method does not require relying on others or begging for help, but in essence it is still a manifestation of the power of the Six Pillars.
Xia Lin naturally asked this question: Will this method really not be restricted by one of the six pillars, the original dark side?
The Pale King did not explain this.
The answer is actually clear: it is inevitable... and this influence is most likely greater than the restriction of relying on other pillars to achieve the twelfth level, otherwise Qing Jue would not have risked his life to survive.
"But for those of us who have nowhere else to turn, this solution is better than nothing, isn't it?"
The last, most desperate choice is still a choice...it's better than having no choice at all.
Xia Lin understood this logic.
"If one achieves the twelfth level using this method, he or she will naturally possess this quality: attracting evil spirits."
The evil god is the product of the radiation of the original dark side's unconscious power.
This thing seems to be incorporated into the professional system, but its logic of existence is actually completely different from that of professionals!
The Pale King did not elaborate on the internal logic, but only stated the final conclusion: the relationship between the twelve-level professionals of the original dark side and the evil god inherited the characteristics of the original dark side.
A life-and-death struggle!
"Our existence attracts evil gods, and they want to devour our flesh, blood, souls, and personality."
"And the evil god is not completely a hunter for us. To some extent, he is also a kind of prey: we also need something from the evil god to maintain our own will and state..."
So even if the Pale King didn't explain in detail, Xia Lin heard something from it.
Becoming a level twelve professional under the command of the Original Dark Side may cause very serious pollution, to the point where one cannot even retain one's own will.
In order to prolong their own survival time, these level twelves set their sights on the evil god: the evil god has an antidote that can alleviate the pollution.
Hearing this, Xia Lin suddenly took a breath of cold air.
"No, you level twelve guys, it's tough!"
That's too bitter.
This is nothing more than drinking poison to quench thirst.
The Pale King made no comment.
Just concluded: "So I need your strength."
Why?
For the evil god.
This can be seen from the hunting list of the main competition.
In the entire Black Domain, there are seven level 12 evil gods and five level 12 professionals.
Among the same level, the combat power of the evil gods is generally higher than normal. The power comparison is already quite clear - people like the Pale King are not having an easy time in the Black Domain.
Moreover, these level twelves who were contaminated by the original dark side power must have mental problems, because even though the situation has become like this, this group of people are still fighting each other and cannot unite together.
In other words, the evil god is even more stupid and insane than them, which is why the situation in the Black Domain has remained in its current state.
As expected, Xia Lin's arrival became the ray of light in the Pale King's eyes.
"I need that spirit world book."
"That book, created by the King of Kings, created specifically for the evil gods and nourished by the evil gods, the Spiritual! World! Book!"
A chaotic noise suddenly rang out in the voice that should have been gentle.
At the end of this sentence, the reverberation sound was deafening, and even through the communication card, it made Xia Lin's brain numb and blood slowly flowed from his ears.
Xia Lin stopped moving forward instantly, staring at the twisted blood shadow on the screen that exuded infinite malice, and slowly narrowed his eyes.
After a long time, the blood shadow finally stabilized again, and the voice of the Pale King was heard from within.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I... I just... um..."
Xia Lin simply said: "I understand, I understand... the influence of the original dark side, right."
Pale King: "Yes, He always interferes with my sanity. I'm sorry to let you see my bad side..."
"No need to apologize."
At this point, Xia Lin smiled and said, "Wait for me, I will come to see you soon."
"Looking forward to your arrival."
This is the conclusion of the communication.
And when the communication ended, Xia Lin's expression immediately became gloomy.
"Only idiots would go to your place!"
It is impossible to say whether the Pale King is good or evil, and it is also difficult to assess whether the Pale King's request for cooperation is sincere or false.
But the uncontrolled furious roar once again reminded Xia Lin of this fact.
Anyone who has anything to do with the original dark side is not worthy of trust or cooperation!
To say that they are moody is an understatement...this group of people simply cannot be understood or thought of using normal logic.
"Also, the existence of the Spirit World Book has been exposed. This is not good..."
Xia Lin didn't expect that the Pale King's clone was actually a veteran of the Righteous Alliance.
And in the past, after returning to the Righteous Alliance, Xia Tian must have told outsiders about the glorious achievements of Xia Lin, the nemesis of the evil god.
If it existed, there must be traces!
Xia Lin had anticipated the exposure of the Spirit World Book, but he never expected that the twelfth-level professionals from the original dark side and the evil gods actually had a hunter-prey relationship.
"This will cause the Spirit World Book to become one of the sources of trouble for me in this competition..."
The Pale King's roar was filled with his covetousness for the Book of the Spirit World.
And when Xia Lin decided not to meet Him, He would definitely have a targeted response.
It is reasonable that when cooperation fails, the two parties resort to robbery - it is even questionable whether this cooperation is the original intention of the Pale King.
"And the second source of disaster is the soul light."
The soul light in the body naturally attracts evil gods... and there are too many evil gods in the black domain.
At this moment, Xia Lin used the entanglement of cause and effect to shield his own breath and cause and effect, so he did not encounter the evil god... Otherwise, even if Xia Lin did not have much soul light on his body, in the eyes of the evil god, it would be no different from a lighthouse in the sea or a bright moon in the night.
"But there are pros and cons... Soul Light is not my own. Most of the participants this time may have Soul Light, and they may have much more than me. The Spirit World Book brings disadvantages, but it also adds advantages to me. There are enough evil gods here, which is just right for the Spirit World Book to play."
Everything has its pros and cons. Looking at this matter comprehensively, the pros and cons outweigh the cons.
While thinking, he quickly fled away.
But after walking for less than two minutes, Xia Lin stopped again.
Because the new reminder sound of the Ashen Zone sounded again in his ears, and the content made Xia Lin slowly frown, and even looked up at the sky involuntarily, as if looking for the figure of Liuzhu.
…
Just after finishing the communication with Xia Lin, the man named Yuan Zhuo slowly turned around and looked at the Pale King on the throne behind him.
This man, who couldn't be more ordinary, spoke slowly.
"He won't come..."
The Pale King's voice rang out in the blood shadow: "I know that unless he is stupid, he will not come."
"But don't worry, he won't be able to hide for long."
Causal entanglement is awesome, that’s a fact.
However, there have never been any unsolvable skills in the professional system. As a level 12 player, he naturally has the ability to break through the hidden effects of cause and effect entanglement.
If worst comes to worst, there are still things like hunting cards and extra rule cards - as long as you operate properly, there is no situation that you can avoid in this final assessment.
Because avoiding battle and playing hide-and-seek is definitely not what Liuzhu wants to see.
The Pale King suddenly spoke up: "We can put the matter of the Spirit World Book aside. Before that, we have another thing to do."
The blood shadow suddenly fluctuated, and an eleventh-level professional floated out from the blood shadow and landed in front of Yuan Zhuo.
This person had his eyes tightly closed and was unconscious... This was the "consumable material" of the Pale King.
Yuan Zhuo had already informed the Pale King of the rules of this competition. When he saw the appearance of consumables, although he did not quite understand the Pale King's thinking, he still took the points without hesitation.
The Pale King did not speak again until 20,000 points were credited to his account.
"Exchange for an additional rules card. The specific additional rules are..."
As the Pale King slowly opened his mouth, Yuan Zhuo was stunned on the spot.
Only after the Pale King finished speaking did Yuan Zhuo ask in astonishment, "Can this work? How is this possible?"
A sinister and twisted laugh suddenly rang out from the blood shadow.
"Why not? Believe me, this is definitely the additional rule that Liuzhu wants to see! Just do it!"
…
[Ember Walker: Yuan Zhuo, used an additional rule card! ]
[Approved by Liuzhu, additional rules approved! ]
[Additional rules are as follows: In the main stage of this sequence ranking battle, the induction between soul lights and the attraction to evil gods will be greatly improved! At the same time, the restrictions on soul lights are removed, and they can be accommodated by non-ash zone walkers! ]
Outside the black area, in a temporary hidden space.
When this rule sounded, the King of Kings sighed softly.
"If we do this, the difficulty of the assessment will be too great for most of them..."
It was precisely out of this trace of mercy that the King of Kings cast a dissenting vote in this vote.
It was also the only dissenting vote.
Because the other four pillars who can vote have no mercy on the weak!
The voice of the Heavenly Dao Creator was the first to sound: "Soul Light is for those who are capable! Since it is the ticket to the Six Pillars, they must have the ability to hold it! Otherwise, how can they face the original dark side, and how can they become the Six Pillars!?"
Wuxin, with soul light in his body, can prevent the Demon Emperor's will.
He has 48,065 soul lights! He is also the person with the most soul lights among those being tested!
This rule is most disadvantageous to Wuxin, but the Lord of Heaven doesn't care.
Because, if you can protect these soul lights in the black area, it proves that you are qualified. If you can't protect them, just throw them away and end your ambition.
He really valued Wuxin and did his best to cultivate Wuxin.
But the most beautiful flowers cannot be grown in a greenhouse, and a young eagle will never be able to fly freely without experiencing wind and rain.
When it comes to parenting, the God of creation is not gentle and can be quite tough at certain times.
This time, the Demon Emperor stood on the same side as the old thief of Heavenly Dao. "I originally thought that it was unreasonable that the Soul Light could only be contained by the Cinders Walkers. I will use this rule to see what kind of changes will occur to those who are not Cinders Walkers, or even the evil gods, after they get their hands on the Soul Light."
Curiosity and not caring about the lives of these Ash Walkers made the Demon Emperor cast a vote in favor.
Chaoxing’s logic is even simpler: “Speed up, and speed up again.”
"Playing hide-and-seek is meaningless. A truly powerful person who is qualified to be a Sequence One of the Ten Thousand Races must defeat everyone head-on and pass all the tests with his own strength to be eligible to win this title!"
The King of Kings did not argue any more.
Because this additional rule is also a relatively fair additional rule.
A vote of four to one did not allow the King of Kings to raise any objections.
He just looked dimly at the entire black domain.
The next second after the second round of additional rules came into effect, the powerful Amber Walkers from all races faced a real test that was hard to resist!
…
Southwest of the Black Domain, in a no-man's-land.
A Cinder Zone Walker from the side of the Heavenly Dao Creator was still on his way, intending to meet up with Luo Zhi Dao as soon as possible.
However, as he flew, the man's stomach slowly swelled. When he realized this belatedly, the loud cry of a baby had already exploded from his abdomen.
…
Black Domain, northeast, on a desolate planet.
A demon from the Ash Zone lay on the ground, biting the earth with its big mouth.
Its sharp teeth are enough to break through the hard soil, and its strong stomach structure is enough to digest the sand, gravel and soil that are not on the menu.
But his body continued to eat as time went by, and expanded rapidly and uncontrollably... until it exploded with a bang!
The broken pieces of flesh and blood were scattered everywhere, but then disappeared out of thin air.
Faintly, a faint burp sounded in the void, and a ray of soul light emerged from the corpse, but quickly disappeared.
…
After standing there for a moment, Xia Lin took a deep breath.
"It's speeding up again..."
“It’s also more difficult and more dangerous.”
What Xia Lin was referring to was naturally the second additional rules and the changes to this main competition.
Again, nothing specifically targeted.
However, it has greatly increased the risk of this assessment.
Xia Lin, who had just walked out of the gentle rules of Qianchonglou, was a little stunned for a moment, but quickly restrained these useless emotions.
The assessment is decided by the six pillars, and even the King of Kings himself has no say.
The difficulty has increased dramatically right now, but it’s not Xia Lin who has to suffer alone.
"On the contrary, it works in my favor."
Xia Lin had never specially collected soul light. After all, in Xia Lin's eyes, one ray of soul light and one million ray of soul light were equivalent and there was no difference.
With only three soul lights in his hand, even if the attraction of the soul lights increased dramatically due to the strengthening of the rules, Xia Lin could still block most of the influence of the soul lights by the entanglement of cause and effect.
That's why this rule is in Xia Lin's favor...
His attraction is much weaker than that of other Ash Walkers who also possess soul light.
Thinking of Yuan Zhuo and the Pale King, Xia Lin soon understood.
"This Pale King may be troublesome."
Not only did he covet the Book of the Spirit World, the wisdom he displayed also exceeded Xia Lin's expectations of the original dark side professionals.
"Most of the travelers in the former Wanjin District have soul light. Once this rule is set, the soul light will attract evil gods, which can relieve the pressure on the Pale King and even create opportunities."
There is nothing wrong with the logic.
But Xia Lin couldn't guess whether this person had a deeper conspiracy.
Recalling the series of events that happened just after entering the venue, Xia Lin had such a premonition.
"I'm afraid this Black Domain Hunt is not just a contest between the Ashes Walkers."
