Chapter 299 Open Your Eyes
In Taoyuan Township, Bai Wei quietly looked at a drop of bright red blood floating in front of him.
And this drop of blood belongs to the God of Wildfire.
After getting rid of the wildfire, Bai Wei naturally took back the tooth that was trapped in his body. Although the experience was not very good, after all, the series of experiences that the tooth had gone through really made him a little afraid to take action, but after all, it was a part of his body, so Bai Wei still pulled the tooth out of the pool of flesh and blood while sighing.
Fortunately, he had the ability of [Soul Return] when he was in Shengyin, which allowed him to directly take back the rules on the teeth, instead of having to connect them back like he did in the beginning.
Of course, even so, the recycling experience is not good.
After all, what he recovered was not only the tooth, but also the countless characteristics that the tooth had absorbed during the thousand years of wandering outside.
The rule of this tooth is called [Devour], which is a higher level than the [Devour] of the devourer.
The Devourer's [Devouring] is to accept everything about the Devoured, and then suppress it with the "God's Resentment" in the body. Once the Devoured possesses abilities and spirits that are no less than the "God's Resentment", the Devourer himself will also be affected.
This is why, after the Devourer ate Abek, he was assimilated by Abek's thoughts and began to become unconscious.
Of course, even if it is not assimilated, it is still insane.
[Cheng Shi] is one level higher than [Swallowing]. It does not need to accept everything. It can only accept the good side and eliminate the dangerous side.
Otherwise, Abeke would not have been able to remain sane after eating so many people. It was only after eating the flesh and blood of the Devourer that he was assimilated by the Devourer unknowingly because the Devourer's own status was too high and he was unable to fully exert the ability of [Swallowing].
But Bai Wei doesn't need to worry about this. As the master, he can naturally apply the rules of each piece of corpse to the extreme.
That's why he could do what he is doing now, scraping out all the residues eaten by [Chengshi], leaving only this drop of extremely pure divine blood in front of him.
As for what this drop of divine blood can bring... certainly not power, nor immortality. After all, the immortality of the gods is far inferior to that of Visas.
So what Bai Wei really wants is...
Bai Wei stretched out his hand towards the divine blood in front of him. The moment his fingertips touched the divine blood, the divine blood trembled slightly, and then ripples appeared on the surface and its shape changed.
In just a blink of an eye, the blood just now turned into... a key.
really.
Bai Wei raised the corner of his mouth slightly.
This is the key to the land of contract.
As mentioned before, the "Land of the Contract" in "Blasphemy" is just a background existence like Visas, and the information about it is only a few words.
Among them is this one: "The gods used bones as anvils and divine fire as hammers to forge the [Final Gate]. The door is engraved with self-eating snake patterns. Only by watering the snake pupils with the blood of gods can the door be opened. However, the price is obvious - those who release the abyss will become the first sacrifice of the abyss."
Simply put, there is a door there that can only be opened with divine blood as the key.
This information also caused widespread discussion among players, who were guessing what was behind the door. Of course, there was no definite answer until the end.
Of course, Bai Wei already knew what was inside from his last card game with Ms. Ring Finger - Visas' body.
It's a corpse, not body parts.
This statement is too much, otherwise the eight gods would not have joined forces to seal it and build the Land of Contract, a transcendent existence that is above the eight churches. This is why the contract of the Land of Contract cannot be violated.
The gods must hope that the door can never be opened. After all, collecting the blood of eight gods is simply impossible.
If someone could really do it, then it wouldn't matter whether the door was open or not, because that would mean Visas was back.
But the gods obviously did not expect that one of them had ulterior motives.
This person is naturally Senluo.
Senluo does not want to seal Visas permanently. The biggest dream of this crazy god is to resurrect Visas and kill him with his own hands.
So He made some small changes to the "Final Door" that was theoretically impossible to open, to ensure that He could open the door by himself and take out Visas' body.
However, before finding a way to resurrect Visas, He had already died, so this little trick was naturally useless.
Until the wildfire appeared, his "loyal" hound ate everything of his and became a new him, and then after a series of twists and turns, he finally came to Bai Wei.
That is the key of divine blood.
If nothing goes wrong, this divine blood key alone will be enough to open the final door.
But the problem is that he has to deal with more than just that door.
Where exactly is the land of contract? Is there anything else besides the final door? After all, the eight major religions have been worshipping that place for a thousand years. Bai Wei doesn't think that there is just a bare door there. He can just walk over and open it with the key to get his body back.
So to describe it in a more vivid way, Bai Wei is like a thief who has obtained the password of the innermost safe in a heavily guarded villa. As long as he opens the safe, he can get the most valuable things. But he doesn't know where the villa is, and he doesn't know all the protection measures except the safe, and he doesn't even know how many security guards are inside.
...However, this drop of divine blood may give him the answer.
While Bai Wei was waiting for the Key of Divine Blood to return to its current blood state, he stretched out his hand again, caught the drop of blood in his palm, then moved it to the potted plant on the table and crushed the blood bit by bit.
The blood of God flowed down through his fingers and dripped into the small potted plant bit by bit.
This potted plant is actually a reflection of the ancient tree. When the first drop of divine blood seeped into the clay, the twisted roots of the peach tree suddenly arched their spines, and the dead branches trembled like the fingertips of a dying person and stabbed at the sky; the new buds broke through the charred bark, and the emerald leaf sheaths grew wildly with the sound of the amber of time, as if an invisible hand had collapsed a thousand years of spring into an instant. And deep in the annual rings, there was a sound of tiny cracks.
The power of Taoyuan Township increased, and Bai Wei felt that a shackle had been broken.
Then Bai Wei's heart began to stir, and the ancient tree began to hum.
"Calling the spirit".
"Come on." Bai Wei closed his eyes, "Tell me where you are."
Invisible ripples spread out little by little, and in the pure darkness, tiny lights lit up one after another, like stars.
Among them, Bai Wei saw the brightest one.
He stretched out his hand.
…
"Master, the message has been sent."
The servant in white robes reported to Diana respectfully.
Diana looked at the prison in front of her, which was as vast as a deep-sea whirlpool, and asked calmly, "Have you got any answers?"
"Sen Luo and Sheng Yin don't have any," the servant replied, "Sen Luo can no longer find anyone who can fulfill the contract, and Sheng Yin... they said they will send as many people as possible."
"In other words, this gathering will not be able to gather all the former contract believers no matter what?"
"Yes." The servant whispered, "Even if Shengyin has gathered enough people, Senluo is really gone. The wildfire that wanted to replace Senluo also failed. Now that land has become a veritable godless place."
"...A land without gods?" Diana said softly, "I never thought the outside world would be messed up like this. The Eternal Covenant only lasted a thousand years."
The servants dared not speak.
Diana turned around and looked at her servant and asked, "What did the warden say? Did he get the information from the Rhine?"
"I got it, but the information from Rhine is not that accurate."
"Hasn't Rhine fought that man many times? Still no accurate information?"
"Yes, according to Rhine, everyone who has seen that guy is dead." The servant whispered, "So they decided to call on all the major churches to jointly hunt him down."
Diana narrowed her eyes slightly.
The major churches joined forces to hunt down one person, and even alarmed the Land of Contract. This had never happened before, so much so that Diana could hardly believe it when she first received the news. After all, the Land of Contract had been closed to the world for a thousand years.
But when Diana saw the information sent by Rhine, claiming that the person being pursued might have possessed four or five body parts, she could understand why Rhine did this. After all, no one had ever possessed so many body parts at the same time.
With so many corpses gathered together, no one could tell what he wanted to do or what he could do. Even after a thousand years, they still didn't know much about Visas.
Fortunately, the Rhine side was reasonable and realized that they could not deal with this guy on their own, so they immediately notified the Land of Contract.
Otherwise, if that person really collected more than ten pieces of body parts, they would have no choice but to notify the gods of each family.
But then again, has that "Ulu" really obtained so many body parts?
When she saw the name and knew that the other person was likely to have fingers and eyes, Diana immediately thought of the trip to Taoyuan Township half a month ago and the hand and eye that controlled everything.
If nothing unexpected happens, the hand and eye will be "Ulu".
But half a month ago, there were only two body parts of "Ulu". In just half a month, the number of his body parts doubled?
Was it he who got rid of the Seven-tone Player who also had two corpses and who had messed up the Holy Sound?
Or was he dealt with by the other party?
And it's not just the two of them. In that gambling game, Shouyan also lost the information of the seven-tone player to Menya, so it is very likely that Menya also went to find the seven-tone player.
So what is the result?
Diana felt a little annoyed when she thought about so many questions that had no answers. She was annoyed that Rhine provided too little information.
Even from the information provided by Rhine alone, they were not only unable to determine how many body parts "Uru" had, they couldn't even determine how many people "Uru" actually were.
What if the Hand-Eye and the Seven-Tune Player haven't killed each other yet? There is no clear evidence that someone has obtained more than four pieces of body parts at the same time. Of course, from Rhine's perspective, they don't necessarily know that "Uru" and the Seven-Tune Player are two people. Only Diana, who experienced the Taoyuan Township gambling game, knows this.
...So do we need to make the information about Taoyuan Township public?
Diana thought about it for a moment and gave up the idea.
It hasn't come to that yet.
Diana gently rubbed the ring finger of her right hand. Invisible silk threads spread like a spider web. She examined the prison in the web like a spider queen.
She didn't want to expose this finger until the last moment.
At least let's wait and see until the next trip to Taoyuan Township.
Diana began to look forward to it.
"Master..." Seeing that Diana had not spoken for a long time, her servant raised his head and asked cautiously, "The warden hopes that you will organize this rally. What do you think..."
"Really?" Diana nodded gracefully. "I'd love to go out for some fresh air. After all, this unchanging scenery..."
As Diana spoke, she turned her head to see the prison layers upon layers behind her that seemed to be sinking into the abyss of the earth.
“I’ve seen it for too many years.”
Diana shrugged, looked away and prepared to leave.
She had only taken two steps when a palpitation that came from nowhere suddenly surged into her chest, causing her body to stiffen instantly.
She turned her head sharply and looked at the prison behind her again.
"Master, Master?" The servant was startled.
Diana didn't say anything, staring at the scene in front of her that she had seen countless times.
The scene remained unchanged. The countless pillars of magic were still standing upright, and the chains covered with spells above were not trembling. Everything was as dead silent as usual.
So what was that palpitation just now?
Diana hadn't felt this way for a long time, at least not since she got this finger.
...the feeling of being stared at by death.
Diana was silent for a moment, then asked, "When was the last time the seal was checked?"
"Last, last time?" The servant wiped the cold sweat from his forehead while recalling, "It seems to be... forty-eight years ago."
Diana narrowed her eyes slightly and murmured, "Only forty-eight years ago?"
The seal of this prison is checked once every hundred years, and it has been less than fifty years since the last inspection.
And that thing underground is just a body without a soul. Even if there really was an accident, it shouldn't have come from inside.
And all the sealing devices were not activated.
Is it an illusion?
Diana looked deeply at the prison in front of her, feeling like she was staring into the abyss.
After a long time, she shook her head and turned away.
…
But what she didn't know was that at the bottom of the abyss, behind the "Final Gate" made of the flesh and blood of the gods.
The broken body slowly opened its eyes which were as empty as the abyss.
