Chapter 422 The absurd, terrifying and powerful Old One has arrived!
In fact, from the hesitation of the Original Lord, it was not difficult for Wang Yanqing to see that the Original Lord valued Xia Lin.
But this only made Wang Yanqing more determined to kill Xia Lin.
The Demon Emperor, the King of Kings, and now there is another original overlord.
He is obviously just a guy without any backing, but he thrives among all parties and lives a more comfortable and powerful life than those with backing.
This is also a strange phenomenon.
Suddenly I felt alert...
Perhaps this time, Xia Lin's life or death is more important to him than the Heavenly Palace.
However, these evil thoughts only appeared briefly before Wang Yanqing suppressed them back into his heart.
This doesn't make sense...
Because this intuition does not conform to the laws of reality.
Thinking that he was blinded by jealousy, Wang Yanqing recited the Emperor's Heart Sutra several times in a row to dispel distracting thoughts. When he looked at Xia Lin again, he suddenly had a new idea.
——The Original Lord’s attention to Xia Lin is not necessarily a bad thing for him in the current situation.
As long as Long Xiang and the other two can put in more effort and force Xia Lin into a dead end, the Original Overlord will be unable to radiate his power into the cave.
So if the Original Lord really values Xia Lin and wants to save Xia Lin's life, asking for help from himself would be the fastest and most convenient way.
He could use this as a bargaining chip to seize the Heavenly Palace from the original master and achieve his own goals.
Long Xiang and the other two: ???
You wanted to kill Xia Lin before, and now you want to save him?
What's wrong with you?
Wang Yanqing: What else?
The Wang family, whose goal is to seize the throne, no longer cares about personal grudges or revenge, and everything is based on interests.
If killing Xia Lin is beneficial, Wang Yanqing will do it.
But when the benefits of saving Xia Lin outweigh the benefits of killing Xia Lin, Wang Yanqing can make a 180-degree turn without any psychological burden.
The idea is completely clear.
The only variable at the moment is who will win in this 3vs3 match.
This will determine Wang Yanqing's gains.
Just as Wang Yanqing was thinking this, the six people below took action.
The first person to fire the first shot was not the strongest of the six, Zhou Xinglin, nor was it the landlord Long Xiang and his two companions.
Instead it was Xia Lin.
Xia Lin raised his hand and touched the spiritual book around his neck.
The turbid light burst out like a rapidly inflated soap bubble, instantly enveloping everyone present.
The next second, the light and shadow began to fade.
It was as if there was an illusory world that descended from the book of the spiritual world and covered reality.
As a result, the boundary between fantasy and reality began to blur and the rules began to distort.
This is exactly what the Old Coming of the Spirit World Book created: overlapping realms of illusion!
Everyone in the area immediately stopped moving.
Wang Yanqing, who was watching the game, frowned.
Because of the power nature of this field, Wang Yanqing had a bad feeling.
"This is not a power that Xia Lin should master."
What responded to Wang Yanqing was the sneer of the Original Lord.
"Of course this isn't the power Xia Lin should master... because this is my power."
"As for why Xia Lin can use my power, you'll have to ask your father."
The raw materials of the Spirit World Book are Jun You and the original dark side souls of the past.
Later, the nutrients for the growth of the Spirit World Book were directly taken from the original dark side.
After being modulated by the King of Kings, this book of the spiritual world has already acquired some of the characteristics of the original dark side. Now that the Old Ones have been activated, the effect is so strong that it can control a level 12 Zhou Xinglin!
But soon, Wang Yanqing breathed a sigh of relief.
Because he saw that after a brief trance, the six people in the overlapping illusion area began to move again.
He was not bewitched and did not seem to be suffering from any negative state.
They acted as usual, pairing up and closing in on each other.
"It doesn't seem to make any sense..."
Wang Yanqing made this comment on The Old Coming.
What responded to him was the Primordial Lord's ambiguous laughter.
No meaning?
That's just your poor eyesight.
In the eyes of the Original Lord, the Coming of the Old Ones performed by the Spirit World Book at this moment already possesses one percent of the power of His Coming of the Old Ones!
And the Old Ones of the original dark side...are on the same level as skills like the Equation of Heaven and Absolute Balance.
This is the absolute core skill of Liuzhu!
Even though it lacks the blessing of the six pillars, even though it lacks many characteristics, in terms of the essence of the skill, this kind of skill is far stronger than any fancy skills.
When Zhu Xing strode up to Xia Lin and punched Xia Lin on the forehead, what happened next left Wang Yanqing stunned and the Origin Lord burst into laughter!
"Your dad is awesome, so awesome!"
"Honestly, this tool he refined really imitates my abilities perfectly!"
…
Time goes back a little to when Xia Lin touched the book of the spiritual world.
At this moment, Xia Lin actually felt quite helpless.
It seems to be a 3v3 situation, and we have the big brother Zhou Xinglin on our side.
But he is the real big brother, not a "fake big brother" like the Original Overlord who needs help from him.
Zhou Xinglin followed him only because of his martial arts intuition. Xia Lin was not so bold as to think that Zhou Xinglin would be willing to help him clear all obstacles and wholeheartedly help him complete the task assigned by the Original Master.
To put it bluntly, Zhou Xinglin's combat capability is not reliable.
He glanced at Zhou Xinglin out of the corner of his eye and was surprised to find that Zhou Xinglin was smiling and looking at him.
Xia Lin also couldn't figure out Zhou Xinglin's thoughts.
The thought briefly swirled around, and Xia Lin sighed softly, thinking to himself, "People still have to fulfill themselves."
I simply activated the newly acquired card: The Old Ones Arrival.
As the turbid light bloomed, Xia Lin spoke quickly, "Brother Zhou, I'm going to take out my cards and try to fight. Please conserve your strength. If I can't win this fight, please protect me and take me away. We'll discuss the mission later."
To put it bluntly, Xia Lin did not regard Zhou Xinglin as a dictator, but as a life-saving straw.
This made Zhou Xinglin laugh out loud: "Okay!"
No one likes to be a knife for others - because this is essentially an unequal relationship.
Xia Lin's decision showed respect and also pleased Zhou Xinglin.
It's worth saving this kid's life...
Even Zhou Xinglin felt that it was not impossible for him to go all out to help this kid this time.
Just as this thought appeared, the illusion overlapping field arrived.
Zhou Xinglin only felt his brain dizzy, and lost his perception of the outside world and sense of time. However, he soon woke up, his eyes were normal, and he had actually forgotten the abnormality just now.
Even his terrifying martial arts intuition was suppressed, and he even ignored the overlapping illusory areas around him.
The return of the past blurred Zhou Xinglin's cognition.
This problem occurred not only among Zhou Xinglin, but also among Long Xiang and his three companions and Cheng Lin.
However, Xia Lin, the released person, encountered a situation completely different from others.
The moment Xia Lin activated the Old Ones, he felt a sharp pain as if his soul was being torn apart.
The reflection of the past bloomed from the book of the spiritual world, descended into reality, and overlapped with reality, which instantly tore Xia Lin's soul into two halves.
Half of it is still in the main body, but the other half disappeared out of thin air and no one knows where it went.
At the first moment, Xia Lin was confused by the power of the Old Ones and ignored the changes that had just occurred.
But when a warm current emerged from the spiritual book and flowed into Xia Lin's body, Xia Lin woke up instantly and realized that he had used the Old Ones' Advent and took the initiative.
But, then what?
That’s it?
Is this the advent of the old days?
Just as these doubts arose in Xia Lin's mind, his left eye suddenly became blurry and turned into a chaotic gray.
From the left eye's perspective, a different scene appears to the perception, like a slowly unfolding scroll.
Time in reality seemed to stand still, but the picture in the scroll was quickly completed.
In an instant, at dusk, the busy streets of a modern city appeared in Xia Lin's eyes, and the turbid heat wave mixed with car exhaust hit him in the face.
Xia Lin opened his mouth in surprise, and the briefcase in his hand fell to the ground with a dull thud.
He looked up and around, and finally looked down at his clothes.
——The straight suit fits snugly on the young but ordinary body, and Xia Lin cannot sense any trace of supernatural power.
Xia Lin: ???
No, where did this come from?
…
The right eye represents a reality that is close to stillness.
In reality, Long Xiang, Zhu Xing, and Moros, the three level twelve figures, began to disperse at an extremely slow speed.
Long Xiang walked towards Zhou Xinglin.
Moros walked towards Chenglin.
Zhu Xing walked towards him.
3v3 turned into 3 1v1s. The strongest of the three, Long Xiang, cooperated with the formation here to block Zhou Xinglin. The second strongest, Zhu Xing, quickly killed himself and then went to assist Long Xiang, allowing Moros to play freely.
This tactic is reasonable.
But, their speed is too slow...
As slow as a snail's pace.
Xia Lin tried it and found that his speed was slower than theirs... so he simply stopped moving.
And in the left eye, there is the falsehood of rapid deduction.
The streets are crowded with cars and pedestrians walking in busy steps, some rushing to catch the bus home after work, some going out to eat and then returning to work as soon as possible, like a group of worker bees.
A "beep" sound suddenly rang out.
A Didi appeared in front of Xia Lin.
"The phone number ends in 8135? Did you call a taxi?"
Xia Lin was slightly stunned, then quickly nodded.
"I called the car."
Then he got into the car.
The vehicle started moving towards its destination.
Sitting in the car, Xia Lin seemed to have two different memories in his mind, colliding and conflicting with each other.
But they soon completed the differentiation, like two parallel lines, without interfering with each other.
One is the memory of facing Long Xiang and the other two in the main universe - this corresponds to the scene in the right eye.
One is a fake picture of riding a car back home - this corresponds to the picture in the left eye.
False memories began to weave and reconstruct.
Xia Lin, 23, is an orphan, a recent college graduate, and an ordinary member of the modern society.
Sitting in the car, Xia Lin rubbed his forehead and completed the precise splitting of the two memories.
He naturally knew what was true and what was false, and he was also aware that the current situation was undoubtedly caused by the ability of the Old Ones.
But no one knows what these false images indicate, and what the nature of the operation of the ability of the Old Ones is.
"So, what's the point of all this falsehood?"
Xia Lin asked himself, but he was puzzled...
Until in his right eye, Zhu Xing came to him at an extremely slow speed and raised his right fist!
…
As one of the six great ancestor witches, Zhu Xing's power is unquestionable, and his strength is comparable to that of Lingbao Immortal.
His strong body is his most relied upon weapon.
When Zhu Xing got close, his strength had already reached its theoretical limit.
The simple action of raising his fist caused the space to explode and shatter, and the violent magic power surged, even leaving Xia Lin's skin and flesh torn apart.
The huge gap in strength was enough for Zhu Xing to kill Xia Lin with one punch, and Xia Lin would not have the slightest power to fight back.
But, it's too slow...
Under the power of the overlapping illusion field, the punch was too slow.
Of course, Xia Lin was slower. Although his mind could react, his body could not avoid the attack of the punch.
Suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, I noticed a fist approaching from a distance at an extremely slow speed.
It was Zhou Xinglin who threw a punch, trying to rescue Xia Lin.
This made Xia Lin feel relieved.
Without waiting for Xia Lin to prepare a response plan, Didi turned his left eye and turned into a dark alley.
Xia Lin was stunned: "Master, this is not the route to my house."
The driver said nothing, but turned the car into the depths of the alley, then stopped, opened the door and got out.
Only then did Xia Lin realize that the driver was two meters tall, with muscles as strong as rocks.
There is a bulge around the waist...
As the man reached out, he took out a pistol from his waist and pointed it at Xia Lin.
"Xia Lin? Someone wants to kill you."
Xia Lin opened his mouth in shock.
…
In his right eye, Zhu Xing’s fist was approaching, causing Xia Lin’s brow to ache.
The driver's left eye was red and he seemed mentally abnormal.
Seeing Xia Lin standing there in a daze, a cold light flashed in the driver's eyes.
He simply pulled the trigger.
The bullet flew out of the chamber... This was a real gun and a real bullet.
Just as his right eye was about to burst, Zhou Xinglin's fist arrived first and hit Zhu Xing, causing him to stagger back and the punch ended in vain.
In the left eye, the bullet hit Xia Lin's briefcase, but was blocked by a hard object and did not hurt Xia Lin at all.
The driver roared and pulled the trigger again, but the bullet jammed.
In his right eye, Zhu Xing took a few steps back, steadied himself, and attacked Xia Lin again.
In the left eye, the driver's brows were ferocious and he began to eject the jammed bullet.
For a moment, a sense of absurdity surged into Xia Lin's heart.
He understood how the Old Ones came to be...
…
The power and strength of the six pillars have different emphases.
The focus of the original dark side is distortion and destruction!
As the soul of the old dead, the essence of the original dark side is intertwined with the main universe but incompatible with it. The lingering effect of power has created a strange thing like the evil god.
Judging from the limited information, the power of the original dark side itself must be more distorted, more absurd and bizarre.
And at this moment, the ancient book of the spiritual world came and inherited this characteristic.
It summoned the afterimages of the past to cover reality, distorting and alienating it, but also synchronizing everything in reality. In an absurd form of expression, it synchronized the cause and effect relationship of reality into the falsehood!
The strong driver in front of him is the false evolution of Zhu Xing.
Xia Lin thought of the pain of soul-tearing that had almost been forgotten before - Zhu Xing might have experienced the same thing.
Therefore, this fake driver is the real Zhu Xing!
And death in falsehood will also be synchronized with reality.
Whether it is Xia Lin or Zhu Xing!
"But that doesn't make any sense."
Xia Lin in the fake world is ordinary and weak.
Zhu Xing in the fake world is strong, a professional killer, and has a gun.
The strength comparison in reality is also synchronized in the falsehood - Xia Lin in reality is a weakling compared to Zhu Xing, and Xia Lin in the falsehood will also let Zhu Xing slaughter him.
It was at this moment that Xia Lin understood the true nature of the Old Ones' coming.
In reality, he suddenly felt a warmth in his chest, and the Spirit World Book glowed with heat, pouring into Xia Lin's body.
In the illusion, the phone in Xia Lin's pocket suddenly vibrated. Xia Lin quickly took it out and took a look, and an app push notification came into his sight.
Do you want to understand the meaning of life? Do you want to find the essence of life?
Xia Lin: ...
Damn, all this nonsense, the Spirit World Book is about to give me a cheat! I'm almost dead!
In reality, mysterious power emerged from the spiritual book and merged into Xia Lin's body.
The completion rate of the Dark Side of the Old Ones has dropped from 34.75% to 34.08%. With the infusion of energy, the completion rate has plummeted again to 32.08%, a full two percent decrease!
In the illusion, Xia Lin opened the app and a line of text came into view.
【You have been chosen and become the Chosen One! 】
【You have unlocked the property panel. 】
[Current Attributes: Strength 6, Agility 6, Constitution 6, Spirit 6.]
【You have obtained the Chosen Gift Pack. 】
【You have opened the Chosen Gift Pack. 】
[You have unlocked your individual talent: Unstable Mutation! ]
[You can specify three skills of level D or lower in the Tianxuan Mall.]
A large number of familiar skills appeared in Xia Lin's eyes.
Surprisingly, they were the skills recorded in Erying's recipe book and the evil god's abilities recorded in the book of the spiritual world!
Skill levels are synchronized with reality.
This resulted in Xia Lin having relatively few skills to choose from - Xia Lin didn't have many skills below level D.
However, some mutant skills are also highlighted, which means that these skills can also be selected!
A familiar skill caught Xia Lin's eye.
[Rapid Nourishment (Mutation): Active skill. Consumes 4 Spirit points, targets any single living being, and fattens them to their genetic limit in a short period of time! This skill has no cooldown.]
Xia Lin was stunned...
What followed was a tremor.
He had never imagined that the Old Ones would be expressed in such a form, nor had he imagined that the power of the Spirit World Book combined with his own personal talents would bring such an advantage!
Just choose it!
【Unstable mutation takes effect! 】
"No mutation!"
Then Xia Lin suddenly looked up and looked at the driver.
The driver had just ejected the jammed bullet and aimed his gun at Xia Lin again.
Xia Lin simultaneously raised his hand and made a pistol firing gesture.
With a crisp sound, the bullet was fired, and a cold light also flew out of the hand, shooting straight towards the driver!
In the reality of his right eye, Zhu Xing roared and threw another powerful punch.
The dragon-shaped fist print broke through the encirclement and offset the force of Zhu Xing's fist!
Zhou Xinglin is worthy of being the right-hand man of the Six Pillars Super Stars. His combat power is beyond doubt. Even though he is restrained by Long Xiang and the formation here, he still has enough strength to protect Xia Lin.
However, Xia Lin's performance disappointed Zhou Xinglin. Facing Zhu Xing, Xia Lin was like a target, taking a beating without moving.
This is reasonable - because the gap in hard power is so huge. However, what Zhou Xinglin wants to see from Xia Lin is not reasonable, but beyond reason.
If you are ordinary, why should I pay attention to you?
He was thinking about breaking the formation with force and taking Xia Lin away, but he suddenly saw a light condensing in front of Xia Lin from the corner of his eye.
In a flash, a green condensed light wave shot out from the gun and hit Zhu Xing's chest straight!
Time seemed to stand still.
The next second, the tall Zhu Xing swelled up again, and countless fat grew disorderly, instantly turning Zhu Xing into a round meat ball!
This power completely ignores judgment, and that fat is not just fat.
Even with Zhu Xing's strength, he was unable to eliminate the influence of the fat immediately, causing his movements to become clumsy and his strength to plummet!
In the illusion of his left eye, the driver fired another bullet, which coincidentally hit Xia Lin's briefcase and was blocked by the hard object inside.
The cold light in Xia Lin's hand accurately hit the driver, causing his body to swell and turn into an indescribable fat monster.
Xia Lin kicked open the car door and took two steps at a time to reach the driver's side.
Xia Lin picked up the gun that the driver had dropped from the ground, aimed it at the driver's head without saying a word, and pulled the trigger.
In the reality of his right eye, Zhu Xing screamed inexplicably, and the witchcraft power in his body instantly boiled over, like a backlash of energy, igniting Zhu Xing into a huge torch. In a short time, he turned into ashes and his soul was scattered!
In the illusion of his left eye, the driver, who had become obese contrary to common sense, tilted his head, and red and white things splattered out, and he died on the spot!
The illusion and reality of the left and right eyes began to merge.
However, just when Zhu Xing died, the completion rate of the Dark Side of the Old Ones in the Spirit World Book dropped directly from 32.08% to 30.08%, triggering the warning line and forcibly terminating the function of the Advent of the Old Ones.
Xia Lin reacted very quickly.
Like a lion patrolling his territory, he looked at the stunned crowd around him and shouted, "Who else!?"
Two beams of light lit up instantly.
Long Xiang and Moros turned around and ran without saying a word.
Zhu Xing's death was too sudden and too strange.
This led Long Xiang Moros to make a misjudgment - the murderer was a high-ranking official.
It can only be the original master.
Now that the original master has taken action, when else will they run away?
Cheng Lin wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by Xia Lin.
He ignored the surprise and confusion in Cheng Lin and Zhou Xinglin's eyes, and didn't care about the fleeing enemy. He just touched the book of the spiritual world and exhaled deeply.
The arrival of the old day gave Xia Lin a huge surprise.
The strength and terror of the effect completely exceeded Xia Lin's expectations.
And there is no doubt that this is definitely a powerful trump card to deal with level 12 existences.
At present, Xia Lin’s hard power cannot match that of a normal level 12 strongman, but the appearance of the Spirit World Book directly reverses the logic of strength and weakness!
…
In the center of the formation, Wang Yanqing stared in amazement at what had just happened.
He admitted that he couldn't understand... he hadn't thought it through.
He didn't know what means Xia Lin used, nor did he know why Zhu Xing was attacked by his own power and died so suddenly.
The voice of the original master suddenly sounded from the side.
"Well, now it seems that we have no basis for negotiation."
"For your father's sake, just get out of here as soon as you can."
