Chapter 281: So weird, take another look

"Who the hell are you?"

The Mineral God, who was freed from his restraints because his shadow clone let go, looked at his shadow clone with cold eyes.

The shadow clone's head tilted.

This question is not easy to answer - it's not difficult to answer because of the question itself, but because... the shadow clone itself cannot speak.

But it doesn't matter.

The shadow clone raised his finger and pointed at the Mineral God's body, then raised his thumb and pointed at himself.

'I am a shadow.'

Although he didn't speak, the shadow clone still answered the Mineral God's question very well.

[Universal Language] This ability can achieve barrier-free communication, but the prerequisite for communication is the existence of language.

It is not necessary for something to be considered a language only if it meets the condition of 'speaking'.

Is language such an inconvenient thing?

So strictly speaking, body language is also considered language...

The God of Mines frowned, "Shadow? Which god are you under? I don't care which god you are under, this is my territory! I worked hard to find the Lahapa Underground City, a place with disordered veins, and dug it out bit by bit over hundreds of years! It is an important place for me to preach! I am finally going to gain believers who can spread my reputation, and you——"

The shadow clone shook his head awkwardly, and although he didn't say anything, his meaning was very obvious.

'I'm sorry, I didn't expect you to be in such a bad situation...'

"Misery?!" The God of Mines was angry: "I may not have many followers, but you cannot insult me ​​casually!"

The shadow clone spread his hands and said: "I am not insulting you... By the way, what kind of god are you?"

"You don't even know my title. This is too much!"

The Mineral God became even more angry and started fighting with the shadow clone directly.

The shadow clone had no choice but to be forced to have some friendly negotiations with the God of Mines.

Even though the Mineral God has a bad temper, he is actually not that strong. As soon as they started fighting, he was pinned down by the Shadow Clone - after all, the Mineral God was dragged here by the Shadow Clone and had no ability to resist at all.

When the shadow clone was dragging it just now, he found that the body of the Mineral God was extremely hard. Now after a careful inspection, he found that it was not hard at all. This guy is clearly a piece of living xenometallic ore!

"I am the mining god of alien metal! My body is extremely hard. Even if I can't beat you, you can hurt--"

So that’s it, he’s a mining god!

The shadow clone suddenly realized.

Without any confirmed believers, the divine fire can be ignited and the godhood can be condensed... Is it because the value of the ore itself makes people yearn for it?

Therefore, the mechanism of becoming a god in Mother Earth Continent is really sloppy.

As he thought about it, the shadow clone thrust out his arm with great force, causing the air to stretch into a blade, which slammed fiercely into the joint of the Mineral God's arm.

Eight Extreme Heavens: Breaking the Sheath!

The God of Mines sneered: "You can't hurt me, and I can't do anything to you, so get out! Otherwise, I will tire you to death here today!"

"...The number of strange and cruel words has increased."

The speechless shadow clone said nothing, but thrust out his arms repeatedly, with unsheathed wind blades continuously hitting the joints of the Mineral God's arms, and each wind blade hit the same position.

As one of the few long-range attack methods of the Eight Extremes, "Breaking the Sheath" is actually a hunting skill honed in the Iron Pole.

In the iron poles that meet the conditions, there must be metal creatures.

If you want to eat and drink normally, you must first break their hard metal shells... It is definitely not possible to chop them directly with bare hands. After all, flesh and blood can never be compared with metal. Even if it is possible for a while, the long-range chopping method of "breaking the sheath" appeared.

It may not cause much damage once or twice, but the cost to oneself is very low, only physical strength is consumed, and with the support of true energy, this consumption is negligible.

The damage is low, but the key is persistence.

The Mineral God uttered strange and harsh words while his shadow clones continued to attack.

A single 'breaking of the sheath' may cause very little damage, but the frequency is high!

So soon—

"Click~"

The Mining God looked at his fallen arm in astonishment, and couldn't understand why his hand was broken.

The alien gold arm fell off, and the shadow clone wanted to continue attacking, but——

Buzz~

Weird waves spread out, with the alien gold arm as the center, as if some strange vitality unique to metal minerals was released. Tiny minerals suddenly emerged from the ground around the arm like bamboo shoots after spring rain, and grew rapidly!

The shadow clone was stunned. He pointed at the ore that was growing wildly like a plant that had been hit by golden pebbles, and began to gesture frantically.

Although the movements are messy, the meaning is very clear:

'You can create Xenometallic Ore?!'

"Your question is a bit disrespectful to God!" The Allium God said angrily: "I am the Allium God, how can I not give birth to an Allium Statue?"ωωw. cascoo

The shadow clone's attitude changed on the spot.

He helped up the Mineral God who was regenerating from his broken limbs. Although there was no expression on his face that was like a flowing shadow, the Mineral God could clearly feel that this shadow seemed to be trying to please him?

"Look at what a mess this is. Haha, Brother Mineral God, how about we make a deal? I'll help you plan your missionary affairs, and you'll stimulate the mineral veins to help me practice..."

The God of Mines raised his iron-like eyebrows and said, "I am a God! How can I possibly cooperate with a humble shadow like you? Besides, when it comes to preaching, can a shadow like you be more professional than a professional God like me?"

The shadow clone carefully looked at the body of the Mineral God, which could barely be seen as a humanoid figure with sharp edges and prominent features. He was silent for a moment and nodded slightly.

'If this is the best you can do, then I am a better professional than you.'

"You look down on God!" The Miner felt that he had never been so angry in his life.

What could make God more angry than having a cause that you have been pursuing for many years suddenly denied by others?

"You boastful shadow of strange power, do you know that you are now denying a god? You still want to cooperate? Dream on!"

"So there's no room for negotiation?"

The shadow clone seemed to sigh, and Mineshen suddenly felt something was wrong.

"What are you going to do?!"

The shadow clone gestured with abstract body language: "I think you may not understand me very well and have a little misunderstanding about me, but it doesn't matter, we can communicate in depth..."

Afterwards, the shadow clone began to discuss with the Mineral God with all his strength.

…

…

"Remember, if you want to gain the attention of the god of fire, the most important thing is sincerity. Remember, sincerity is the key to success!"

Ji Ruo listened to the seemingly pious praise in his ears. Although it felt good to be praised by two beauties in person~

But what's the point of feeling good?

He didn't receive the red flower again.

"Ji Ruo, will this really work?" Not to mention Sheila, even Emily reacted, "Why does your ceremony feel weird... We are clearly praising the stove god, why are you laughing along with us?"

"Ah? Um..." Ji Ruo hesitated for a moment and said, "I am happy for Lord Shen, and I am happy for you. I am welcoming you to join the big family of Shen, the God of Love."

"But this method doesn't work. If the stove god is a normal god, then it's normal that praying has no effect... But you clearly said that the stove god will always listen and respond to believers!"

"You haven't become formal believers yet!" Ji Ruo made up a story: "There are trial workers and formal employees at work. The threshold for believing in the stove god is already very low. You can't do it. Is it possible? The problem lies with you?

Are you really worshipping and praising the stove god with all your heart?"

The two girls were thoughtful after hearing this.

"Are you sincere?"

Xila thought of the revelation given to her by Mother Earth, and wondered what was going on in her mind.

Emily recalled the delicious peony cake she had never eaten before...it was much better than fruit salad!

After a while, the two women, not knowing whether they had made an agreement, took a deep breath almost at the same time and began to pray again.

Ji Ruo was happily waiting for the news of the little red flower being deposited into the account - whether he was truly sincere would be known by seeing whether the little red flower was deposited into the account.

Prayers and the like don’t matter, Ji Ruo is too lazy to write one. The God of the Oven is here anyway, so it’s up to Ji Ruo to decide whether to establish contact or not.

Sheila and Emily would definitely not resist, and Ji Ruo was just waiting for the little red flower.

That’s what Ji Ruo thought.

However--

"Great God of Stove, your handsomeness is rare in the world..."

Ji Ruo had heard the same prayer many times before, but this time it seemed a little different.

The incense in the hands of the two women burned slowly, with green smoke rising up.

They had never come across anything like this before. In their memory, the smoke from burning was clearly very pungent, but this thing seemed different.

The smoke it releases when burning is dreamy and has a special fragrance. If you calm down and feel it carefully, you will feel inexplicably at peace.

The expressions on the two girls' faces became more and more pious, as if they were really praying sincerely.

The smoke from the six-pillar incense offering lingered, interweaving into a light cloud above the two women’s heads…

Ji Ruo was originally cheerful, but suddenly his expression changed -

Inside the Xingxuan Cave.

“Ahhhh! What is this?!”

"Lord Kitchen God?! Lord Kitchen God!"

"I'm flying, I'm flying!"

Two unusually thick columns of smoke burst out suddenly, knocking the believers who were watching the movie to the ground. Many believers were even blown high into the air by the smoke columns.

Fortunately, they had already died, so they wouldn't be hurt any more.

Apart from being frightened, the believers in Xingxuan Cave will not suffer any losses.

But Ji Ruo is different.

Those two columns of smoke were the power of incense. Ji Ruo's previous power could only be regarded as barely condensing the divine position. The residents of Ruang Town sacrificed themselves, but it only made Ji Ruo's divine position eternal. Ji Ruo's divine power did not increase.

So strictly speaking, Ji Ruo is not even a one-star god.

The appearance of these two smoke columns took only a moment, allowing Ji Ruo to break through the barrier of one-star god, and he was even rapidly moving towards the two-star god.

However, this is not a good thing. With such great progress at once, the Xingxuan Cave Heaven, which had just been formed, seemed unable to bear it.

The edge of the cave was cracked by the smoke column and looked like it was about to collapse.

Fortunately, the power of incense is generally not used for killing, so the smoke column is not only destroying Xingxuan Cave Heaven, but also transforming it.

At this moment, thunder exploded in the Xingxuan Cave Heaven, and because of the arrival of two smoke columns, earth-shaking changes were taking place.

Of course, all changes are good.

However, this change did not have such a friendly effect on Ji Ruo.

Because the change was so drastic, Ji Ruo couldn't bear it all at once. He felt dizzy and his nose was bleeding.

The void cannot be replenished.

“Ji Ruo! I feel the god of the stove…” Emily turned around excitedly and wanted to share her joy with Ji Ruo. However, upon seeing Ji Ruo’s miserable condition, her face changed drastically: “Ji Ruo! Ji Ruo?! What’s wrong with you!”

Sheila couldn't help but tighten her staff.

It seems... a bit too much?

But she and Emily believe in the stove god, what does that have to do with Ji Ruo?

Could it be...

Sheila finally seemed to realize something.

"I……"

Ji Ruo's mental state was extremely dazed at this moment.

Being promoted to a higher god is a good thing, but Ji Ruo is not an ordinary god. While being a god, he is also a human being with a good family background.

The sudden increase was so huge that the flesh and blood body could hardly bear it.

Fortunately, the magical power of incense is infinite. Although Ji Ruo looks miserable, his injuries are not serious. Under the effect of the magical power of incense, he is gradually recovering.

Emily supported the staggering Ji Ruo and asked with concern: "Ji Ruo, what's wrong with you? Do you need my healing skills to treat you? But you look like you have mental injuries, I'm afraid my healing skills..."

“No, no need…” Ji Ruo raised his head, his face pale, and forced a smile, but suddenly he was stunned.

In a trance, he seemed to see the figures of Sheila and Emily gradually blurring in his sight.

Ji Ruo saw two mysterious figures.

One of the figures was standing on a mountain of death made of endless corpses, and on the top of the mountain was a pale throne made of countless bones.

He sat lazily on the pale throne, supporting his cheek with his right hand, crossing his long legs, and glanced at Ji Ruo nonchalantly.

Ji Ruo couldn't see the other person's face clearly, but he felt an extremely cold gaze as if it was looking at him from the end of time.

There was no emotion in those eyes, but an endless air of death, and the end of all things seemed to be reflected in them.

The other figure was in a vibrant green forest, with birds singing, flowers blooming, and lush green grass.

The figure sat on the ground without any image, surrounded by many cute little animals. A young sika deer tried to stand up tremblingly and tried to walk, but stumbled into the figure's arms.

He caressed the young deer, with an indulgent smile on his face from beginning to end.

Then the young deer chirped in joy.

In addition, the details of this figure are much more perfect than the previous one.

For example, her perfect figure that is completely indescribable yet makes it difficult for people to have blasphemous thoughts, and her snow-white and smooth skin...

Another example is the simple clothing that is completely close to nature and is made of leaves from unknown trees...

What a ragged big sister!

Ji Ruo blinked.

This sister is so grown up, why does she only wear so little clothes when she goes out?

Isn't He shy at all?

Ji Ruo blinked again and again.

It's strange. There doesn't seem to be any thread connecting them, so why don't the leaves fall off?

So weird, take another look...

Will it really not fall off?

So amazing!

No, let me take a closer look...

The figure on the pale throne: "..."

A figure in the green forest: "..."

…
