Chapter 331 God of Beggars, Sensoji Temple, Izanami
. , the fastest update to the latest chapter of Mechanical Alchemist!
Su Lun had read some legends in the classics before, saying that the Land of Underworld was the destination of the dead.
Therefore, ghosts here usually do not "die". Even if they are killed, they will only lose some cultivation, and then they will regroup their bodies and be resurrected under certain special rules.
However, Su Lun also felt that this was a normal situation.
Against all kinds of ghost species that are good at resurrection, his ability is just right.
The soul fragments have been stripped away, and there is a high probability that they cannot be resurrected.
Su Lun skillfully peeled away the gray mist from Shuten Doji's soul...
Because alchemists and monsters are not in the same system, he did not choose to strip away some spiritual insights, but wanted to understand the Kingdom of Underworld through this channel and find a way out.
The information obtained was indeed quite a lot.
Keywords: Lord of the Underworld, Izanami?
Su Lun vaguely felt that he seemed to know the key to breaking the situation.
There are many "gods" embodied in this cursed space, but the only supreme being in the heart of a great youkai like Shuten Doji is this Izanami.
Su Lun didn't know if it was the legendary one.
After all, that is the "Mother Goddess" that is more ancient than Amaterasu.
A true god.
No mortal can describe the gods, so they are called "indescribable".
Therefore, Su Lun also felt that He should not appear in the cursed space.
Stripping away memories will disintegrate a small part of the soul. After all, Su Lun was curious about the black scythe not cutting the target smoothly for the first time, so he conveniently stripped off one of Guitong's horizontal training secrets [Yuliu·Hegemony].
After looking at it, I realized that the reason why this monster is invincible is not only its strong body, but the most important thing is the advanced skill of using "qi" to protect the body.
Once it was peeled off, it was an unexpected surprise.
This is a very advanced comprehension skill, and it is still in the cognitive blind spot that Su Lun has not yet touched.
Under normal circumstances, this should be an area that sixth-level professionals are exposed to.
Suellen can't use it.
Because, his "qi" is not enough to use this secret method.
The lingering demonic aura is a kind of Gangqi and is domineering?
Because Mr. Jing has always said that "qi" is the key to advancement for high-level professionals, Su Lun also vaguely understands it.
Although the carrier is different, the essence seems to be the same.
But his "qi" now is like a light mist, which disperses as soon as it is flushed.
And in that secret method, "qi" is required to be like steel, which cannot be dispersed. It is like being able to fully and skillfully control the transformation of metal's three forms: solid, liquid and gas.
Very difficult.
After mastering "Haki" in the future, I seem to be able to use this secret technique myself.
At that time, it will be [Rune King Kong Overlord Body]. It seems that its life-saving ability is quite good?
Su Lun's thoughts flashed through his mind for a moment and he didn't think much about it.
Because at this time, an even weirder scene happened in front of me.
The body of [Shuten Doji] turned into wisps of black energy and was absorbed by his body!
No,
To be precise,
Absorbed by the shadow of Death behind Su Lun!
Qian Jiao on the side also saw this vision, and before he had time to take care of his own boiling blood, he shouted: "Su Lun, are you okay?"
Su Lun knew that she cared about him, but shook her head.
Because he also clearly felt that the shadow of the God of Death was absorbing an energy that made him feel very, very happy mentally.
The omniscient eye took a look and found that the black aura transformed from the corpse showed [demon aura mixed with the power of faith].
"This black energy can actually solidify the shadow of the God of Death?"
Su Lun was surprised and happy.
He had previously guessed that the mountain hidden monsters were a collection of beliefs, but now that he saw it, it was indeed the case.
But what he didn't expect was that the demonic energy of faith was of the same nature as the shadow of the god of death.
The moment the two of them were talking, they watched as the decapitated body of Shuten Doji was completely absorbed and disappeared before their eyes.
Even in these two breaths, Su Lun clearly noticed a huge change.
The shadow of the God of Death is visibly solidified to the naked eye!
Before, the face under the Death's cape was completely misty, but now the outline of the face is faintly visible. If you look closely, although you can't see the facial features clearly, the outline is vaguely that of Su Lun.
Moreover, the appearance changes are still minor.
Su Lun obviously felt that his understanding of the law of death and some indescribable abilities had greatly increased!
He estimated that if he relied on himself to understand the law of death normally, he might not be able to reach this level in five or ten years.
"So strong!"
Su Lun's eyes flashed, and he couldn't hide his shock: "This kind of belief in monsters can actually directly increase the understanding of the shadow of Death!"
Originally, his innate abilities could only be enhanced through his own understanding, but because he was sucked into this cursed space, he found a shortcut.
It is rare to awaken S-level talents, and it is difficult to advance. Without any progress in ability development, it not only takes time, but also requires great opportunities. I think Su Lun died once before awakening the second-level talents. Now I want to increase my ability development.
Like a snail, the progress is like an increase of 0.001%, 0.002%, 0.003%.
Now it has jumped by 1%!
This made Su Lun see that a window had been opened, and there was a new world in front of him.
If this growth continues, after the second level of talent is awakened, will there be a third level?
However, Su Lun also clearly felt that the absorbed demonic energy was impure and contained a negative energy.
That's demonic power.
The negative impact this brought was not physical or mental, but gave him a slightly weird feeling in his whole temperament.
But compared to the gains, this negative cost is negligible.
After killing Shuten Doji, Su Lun discovered the great opportunity hidden in this desperate situation, which was considered a blessing in disguise.
However, now is not the time to ponder those gains.
Because their crisis has not been resolved, their situation has become increasingly dangerous.
The evil ghosts around looked at [Shuten Doji] being killed, and all the ghosts were stunned on the spot. Especially when they saw the shadow of the god of death behind Su Lun, it was as if time had stopped, and all the ghosts looked at each other in confusion. But then, several nearby ones
The neighborhood erupted with a piercing scream of howling ghosts and wolves.
Without the ghost king's deterrence, the little ghosts fell into madness and came in droves.
"Go quickly!"
Qian Jiao shouted sharply, drew his knife and rushed forward.
"good!"
Where Su Lun dared to delay, he turned around and ran away.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he started to move, his muscles all over his body felt a burning pain, and he stumbled and almost fell.
He understood something immediately.
The four stages of hormonal rampage were activated just now, causing the body to fight in an overloaded state and causing huge damage.
Muscles were broken and bones were cracked. Although he did not die suddenly, it still took time to repair.
However, these ghosts will not give him time to recover.
"My body has reached its limit."
Su Lun's face turned ugly for a while.
It was also the first time that he faced an unknown enemy of this level. Even if he was careful enough, it was impossible to fully calculate the opponent's damage.
To be able to kill him is because the two of them were lucky enough to gamble their lives.
Especially the knife on the abdomen, although he tried to avoid the vital points, the influx of red lotus demonic energy also rushed into his body and made his blood and energy go crazy.
Su Lun knew very well that his body was on the verge of collapse and could no longer sustain the fierce battle.
There is no way to escape.
After quickly analyzing the pros and cons, Su Lun is also a decisive person.
Seeing all kinds of ghosts and monsters swarming around him, his eyes turned cold, he took out the scroll that sealed the mechanical armor and was about to tear it open, "Let's give it a last try."
The mechanical battleship's defense is very strong, and the control of the battle is not very taxing on the body, so it can probably last for a while.
But Su Lun also knew that after he entered the mecha, he had almost no chance to escape.
The mecha has no spatial displacement ability and its speed is a bit clumsy. It is impossible to escape from the city surrounded by hundreds of thousands of ghosts.
He took it out just because he thought that in a life-and-death battle, he might be able to contain some monsters for Qianjou and give her a chance to survive.
But as soon as the scroll was taken out.
Qian Tiao saw him out of the corner of his eye, as if he had guessed something immediately, and turned around to kill him without hesitation.
The speed of the professional swordsman was even faster than Su Lun's tearing of the scroll. As soon as the figure flashed, she picked up Su Lun and rushed out with him.
Even when he was being carried away, Su Lun spurted out a mouthful of old blood. His ninja body was stinging all over, and he said seriously: "Sister Senjo, I can't leave. You go first!"
Seeing his state, Qianjiao narrowed his pupils, not understanding what Su Lun wanted to express.
She herself is at the end of her rope, and if she resists another person, both of them will almost die.
So the most rational decision is to take one step at a time.
But she didn't even think about it and shouted: "Humph! Nonsense!"
Su Lun frowned as he listened.
The two of them had already developed a tacit understanding of each other's thoughts. He knew very well that this gambling-addicted young woman had always been a sweetheart, and she would never run away alone even if she died.
It was just like he stayed by himself just now.
Su Lun didn't say much, and could only lie silently on her shoulder, occasionally throwing a few bombs to relieve the pressure.
"Bang", "Bang", "Bang"
The bomb's fireworks exploded in the city with brilliant lights.
Su Lun even took out the high-explosive bombs packed at the bottom of the box.
It's a pity that despite its great power, many ghosts don't take damage from firearms at all.
Qianjou gasped for breath, his sword swings became slower and slower, and his sword energy became weaker and weaker.
The situation for the two of them is getting more and more dangerous
In fact, they had been in a desperate situation ever since they were sent to Shuten Doji.
Regardless of whether we win or not, as time passes, the incoming ghosts and monsters all around have blocked all paths, and the possibility of escaping has also been reduced by a cliff.
It was impossible to get out in full strength, but now that both of them were injured, it was even more impossible to get out.
Thousands of long knives slashed everywhere, leaving blood everywhere.
Suellen was on her shoulder, controlling only her movable fingers, using a few puppets to create some chaos.
The two of them could no longer maintain their second-level talent status.
Finally, Su Lun and the others encountered another troublesome demon king-level monster.
It was a [Great Tengu] with fifth-level peak combat power.
The red-faced monster with wings on its back and as tall as a minotaur is also a very powerful swordsman, and is also equipped with a famous sword and armor.
Even if Senjou was in full strength, she might not be able to get an advantage. In this encounter, she barely managed to hold on for a few rounds before she was cut off with a knife, flew dozens of meters upside down, and fell into the ruins. If it weren't for the famous Warring States armor to protect her,
The body, she and Su Lun were afraid that they would be cut into two pieces by this knife.
In the ruins, thousands of helmets were knocked off by the sword just now, a head of green hair was scattered, and blood was left from the forehead, looking ferocious and embarrassed.
She put her sword on the ground, knelt on one knee, and barely managed to avoid falling.
Su Lun on the side was also in a panic. The ghosts and ghosts left all kinds of wounds all over his body as they rushed to kill him. If it hadn't been for the runes drawn on the bones and skin before, and the strength of his body had been greatly enhanced, he would have been killed by now.
strangled and turned into minced meat.
It is hopeless to leave the city from Nancheng.
At this moment, all you can see are ghosts and monsters. The monstrous black ghost energy shoots straight into the sky and surrounds you like a tsunami. If it hits you, you will be shattered to pieces immediately.
Qianjou struggled for a moment and tried to rush forward, but a mouthful of blood spurted out.
Su Lun turned his head and glanced at her.
Just now I thought I had a chance to fight, and I was very nervous.
Now that all means are exhausted and there is no chance, I seem to be open-minded again.
Senjou also felt that gaze.
The two looked at each other. There was no despair or sadness in their eyes, but they smiled.
"Sister Senjo, there is a chance to kill it."
"Oh, try it then."
"good."
After a simple conversation, the two of them collapsed and sat there.
Qianjou's profile is very good-looking and a bit sharp, but after all, it's just a matter of picking flaws.
She sighed and asked: "Boy Su Lun, you had a chance before you left. Why do you want to stay?"
In fact, Su Lun's best chance of survival is when Senjo blocks Shuten Doji.
Su Lun gasped for breath and responded seriously: "Sister Qiantiao, actually I have always wanted to say that being able to fight alongside you is something that people look forward to."
For the first time, he felt that death was not so objectionable.
Hearing this, Qian Tiao raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh"
It seems like many ideas have come to light.
The lights in the city were like the afterglow of the setting sun, making her two faces flush. There was also a beautiful smile on her face.
Unfortunately, there is not much time left for them at the end of life.
The [Great Tengu] sensed the crisis and didn't rush forward immediately, but it slowly approached.
Su Lun was preparing a desperate blow, but was delayed by this caution, so he couldn't hold back his breath and spurted out another mouthful of blood.
He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and his mouth showed bitterness.
It can only go so far.
That’s all.
He suddenly thought of something and suddenly tilted his head: "Sister Qiantiao, can I ask you a question?"
"What?"
Senjo responded instinctively.
But in the blink of an eye, he suddenly realized something when he looked at the expression in Su Lun's eyes, and a strange color flashed across his eyes.
She guessed what Su Lun wanted to ask, and for the first time, uneasiness flashed across that heroic face.
Su Lun's eyes were full of teasing and he asked directly: "Sister Qiantiao, are you really a virgin?"
At the end of your life, you have to find something that makes you happy.
When he thought about it, not having this problem made him happier.
""
As expected, this was the question. Senjo rolled his eyes at him and did not respond.
"Hahaha"
Seeing her like this, Su Lun laughed.
[Shuten Doji] Although he is a legendary monster, his nose is still very sharp.
Su Lun thought
It turns out it really is!
Listening to the laughter that deserved to be beaten, Qian Tiao finally couldn't stand it any longer. She glared at him and complained: "Hey, hey, hey, you really need to be beaten. Is it that weird?"
"a ha ha ha"
Su Lun laughed so much that blood came out of his mouth.
Qianjiao glanced at it, his eyes sparkling, and finally let him go.
At this moment, the majestic power of the [Big Tengu] came down, and its five-meter-tall body stood in front of the two people.
Swing the sword and slash forward
The sword energy struck, sending sand and rocks flying all the way.
Qian Tiao frowned angrily, and slowly drew out the demon sword. She was preparing to strike the last blow like a swordsman.
Su Lun's current physical recovery level is far from being able to dodge violently. He also felt that he was dead after this knife.
But suddenly, a thought came into his mind: "The prophecy of the [Tian Tong Yan] violinist"
The picture that the blind girl saw was that Qian Jiao would laugh amidst the burning fire.
This ending is not right.
Moreover, the death bird on the shoulder actually stopped calling.
Is there any turning point?
Although Su Lun hoped that there would be a turn for the better, no matter how much he thought about it, he could not think of any means he could use to reverse the situation.
Although the various forbidden and cursed objects on his body were extraordinary, they could not save his life other than delaying his death.
Could it be an external force?
For example, Yuzi fell from the sky?
Su Lun thought of all possibilities.
He looked at the sky, and sure enough, at this moment, something strange happened suddenly.
However, Su Lun did not see the divinely dressed Yuzi falling from the sky, but instead saw a broken porcelain bowl suddenly appearing there.
"???"
The broken bowl looked familiar to Su Lun.
But before I had time to think about it, the porcelain bowl blocked the sword energy.
"Keng", "Keng", "Keng" a series of sounds of fire splashing out.
Seeing that it was obviously a beggar's bowl that would break if dropped, he just blocked the sword energy.
Seeing this scene, Su Lun and Qian Jiao were both stunned at the same time.
Although this "Land of Underworld" is full of monsters, there are not many that can block the attack of the [Great Tengu].
Could it be that other big monsters came to grab the "food"?
Su Lun's first reaction was this possibility.
Before they could think about it, a sudden strong wind blew around them, and the dilapidated buildings formed a huge whirlpool around them. For a moment, the wind roared, the sand and gravel squinted, and the whirlwind isolated all the monsters around them.
Then, two mud balls suddenly fell from the sky and landed in front of Su Lun and the others.
【Begging God’s Clay Pills】
Detailed explanation: The elixir containing the energy of the underworld is very rare; after being supplemented with food, the medicine can continue to cover up the yang energy in a living person, and will not let you attract the attention of ghosts like a bright light in the night, but it will not let you be attracted by it either.
The Qi of Huangquan is assimilated. The medicinal effect lasts for 30 days.
Su Lun felt a little baffled, but he was able to identify the efficacy of this clay pill, and he immediately felt happy.
He finally asked why the broken bowl with blue and white patterns looked so familiar.
Isn't this the same bowl that he met on the street when he first came to Shanyin from the two little beggars who were about to freeze to death?
At that time, he remembered that he also threw a few copper coins into it.
It was an unintentional move, but it seems to have paid off?
Su Lun had an incredible feeling.
In an instant, he finally understood the inexplicable words that Abe Taiwa said to him:
Just when the Niwan landed, a voice suddenly came from the whirlwind: "I can't hold on for long, please leave quickly."
The light and shadow form the image of a ragged beggar.
"Thank you God for your help!"
Su Lun raised his hand towards the phantom and gave a thank-you gift to Shanyin. Without being polite, he quickly picked up the mud balls on the ground and said to Qian Jiao: "Eat it quickly!"
[Begging God] is one of the many gods in Shanyin, but even if it is a god, he is probably just a powerful monster. Now that Wangui is trying to save them, he may not be able to hold on for long.
Qian Jiao was confused, looking at the dirty mud pill handed over by Su Lun, and swallowed it in one gulp.
It was like swallowing a mouthful of mud, and the ball scraped against the wall of the throat and fell down. Although it was a bit difficult to swallow, after the medicine was released, a refreshing breath like floral mint swept through the lungs and integrated into the veins of the limbs.
Su Lun felt that his body had not changed much, but he no longer felt as if he was rejected by the cold environment around him.
At this moment, he finally saw hope of breaking the situation.
The biggest reason why they have been chased by ghosts and monsters before is that they have "yang energy" in them that makes it impossible to hide. No matter where they escape, they are like two big light bulbs that can be discovered at a glance.
But now this pill has solved the fundamental problem!
Chijou also felt her body change, but she didn't understand what was happening at all.
Why would a monster help them?
After taking a look at Su Lun, she guessed that Su Lun should have brought it.
Survived from a desperate situation, both of their faces showed a bright light.
At this moment, Su Lun had regained some mobility. He pinched the surgeon's seal, the purple-black hexagram mark appeared under his feet, and a space crack appeared in front of him.
"Walk!"
He took Qian Jiao's hand and stepped over
Su Lun is now seriously injured, and the two of them have not teleported far.
However, it's enough.
When they stepped out of the space rift, they appeared in an empty building.
Because he could sense the fire of the soul, Su Lun perfectly avoided all ghosts.
However, he could also clearly sense that there were dozens of ghosts just outside the door.
Even when they appeared for a moment, some ghosts seemed to notice something, but they did not sense the "yang energy", and no ghosts came in to investigate.
I really hid it!
Su Lun and Su Lun looked at each other: saved!
After a while, the strong wind outside calmed down.
The monsters couldn't find their target and were cursing.
"Damn it! Poor God, where did you do those two humans!"
"That damn beggar, don't even think about taking it all to yourself."
"Run, run, Jie Jie Jie. No living person can escape from the land of hell. Let's see how long you can hide."
""
The atmosphere outside the house was gloomy, and from time to time, ghosts and monsters would pass through the wall, glance at the two people inside, and then leave through the wall.
Fortunately, Pei Weng seems to be still strong. The battle at the Ghost Lantern Night Market in the west is not over yet, and the melon-eating ghosts are also rushing over.
Su Lun and Qian Jiao hid in the house, listening to the monsters around them getting further and further away, and then they dared to take a breath.
Since the ghosts couldn't be found, there was no need for them to rush out of the city.
Senjo asked: "Where are we going now?"
Su Lun thought about it and said, "After recovering, let's go to Sensoji Temple to see the situation first."
He peeled off the souls of some ghosts and now has a target.
Not surprisingly, the leader of the Underworld, "Izanami", is most likely the key to escaping from the cursed space.
But the current situation is that Su Lun and Senjou almost died against a [Shuten-doji]. If they want to go to the "Kingdom Lord", there is a high probability that they will never come back.
They are trying to find other opportunities.
Su Lun also revealed some situations before. The evil ghosts are not willing to go near the "Sensoji Temple" on the outskirts of the city, because it will be safer where there are the power of gods and Buddhas.
And his intuition told him that Sensoji Temple would be a very critical point.
After all, the great writer Fujiwara Hayato finally completed the book "Death" at Sensoji Temple!
