Chapter 83 The Egg of Cause and Effect, the Arm of the Ancient Dragon (6400 words
)
"Night falls...blood covers the earth...human beings prostrate...the stars return...horror, terror, extreme terror...this is the end of the world..."
Ancient and obscure songs were sung softly, and the sounds were layered. It seemed that many people were singing, like a choir in a church, like a dream, or like a prayer from the depths of hell.
All the limbed demons who heard it lowered their heads and did not dare to make the slightest sound, as if they were on the edge of the eternal abyss, trembling with fear.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In the center of the altar, a large meat ball made of countless flesh and blood is enshrined, exuding a faint blood-colored light. A large number of bloody tendrils spread from below, sinking into the ground, connecting to the core of the sacrificial ritual, constantly sucking the passage ceremony.
The filthy spirituality transformed from the large amount of supplied flesh and blood beats like a heart, like an invisible accompaniment.
The singing sound came from the figure in front of it.
A ten-foot-tall giant stood in front of the flesh ball. Different from ordinary limb-joined demons, his appearance was not deformed and grotesque, but rather handsome. He closed his eyes and didn't know what he was thinking.
His body is equipped with eight huge monster arms. From top to bottom, they are the giant storm demon arm surrounding the wind blade, the ancient tree man arm like a century-old tree, the murloc arm with flowing water, and the magma demon arm with magma flowing in the veins.
The human arms and lower body are also spliced with unknown monsters and strong and powerful feet.
His body was covered with a large number of tendon-like blood-colored arm-like streamers, entangled to form a strange and grotesque blood-colored armor, with four blood-colored masks attached to it, and the singing was coming from these faces.
If the appearance wasn't too weird and just listened to the sound, many people would probably think of it as a church choir.
These are the top limbs he finally left behind after more than ten years of constantly hunting and frequently changing the bodies of extraordinary monsters. Each one contains powerful extraordinary power.
From a distance, it looks like a hellish Asura.
He is the leader of the Limb Demon. As for his name in the human period, he has long forgotten it, and there is no need to take a new name.
Because it represents the source of all limb demons.
This title was born because of him.
"Stars...Doomsday..."
The face on the armor of the leader of the limbed demon continued to hum an ancient song, which he saw on the stone wall of the abandoned temple where he obtained the heart core of the Thousand-Faced Demon, and recorded it.
It is a pity that due to the erosion of the long years, the once glorious temple walls have also been broken and weathered, resulting in most of the content being missing.
"But if you think about it carefully, how could the temple of the great one have corrupted so quickly? It also happened to be missing some key contents. Needless to say, everyone knows that it was obviously erased by unknown beings.
There is a high probability that it is something from the old era. It does involve too much. If it is accidentally leaked, it will cause violent turmoil. God will no longer be God. Even as the ballad says, some guys,
Will break through the ancient cage and return to reality. It is unimaginable that human beings are actually..."
The leader of the limb-joining demon murmured softly, and slowly stretched out one of his hands, his eyes fascinated, wanting to touch the bloody flesh ball in front of him.
However, just when the fingertips were about to touch, they suddenly stopped.
Because gaps suddenly opened in the huge meat ball, eyeballs emerged one after another, constantly turning and looking around. The terrifying pressure radiated outwards from it as the center, sweeping in all directions, setting off
The sky was filled with dust.
boom!
Shocked by the terrifying pressure, all the limb-repairing demons knelt on the ground and trembled, not knowing what was happening for a moment.
The leader of the limb-joining demon's eyes became indifferent, and he opened an eye on the back of his head. He looked at the limb-joining demon next to him and said calmly:
"Someone is intercepting and killing the limb-joining demons who are collecting sacrifices."
"ah……"
The limb demon spliced with rat claws was stunned when he heard this. Because he was too scared, he stammered: "That... leader... I... I don't know, I didn't leak the information..."
"Know you don't."
The rat-clawed limb demon breathed a sigh of relief, and then the next moment he heard the cold voice of the leader:
"But I'm very angry now."
As he finished speaking, the blood-colored ribbon on the leader of the limb-joining demon suddenly jumped out, like a poisonous snake, grabbing him and throwing him to the meat ball in the center of the altar.
"Ah ah ah ah ah……"
The outer wall of the meat ball was suddenly torn apart, and a large number of bloody arms protruded from it. The rat-claw limb-joining demon was grabbed, and then pulled directly into the flesh and blood. Soon, there were creepy chewing sounds and wailing sounds, which made people feel uncomfortable.
All the limb demons couldn't help but lower themselves even lower, almost lying on the ground.
At this time, thick clouds floated over, blocking the moonlight and making the world dim.
Kaka...
As the sound of chewing disappeared, the eye pattern on the ground lit up again, and the meat ball seemed slightly larger, with more bloody roots spreading out, hanging down to the ground, crystal clear, and looking like
yes……
Blood vessel!
"The egg of cause and effect needs more sacrifices to carry more..."
The leader of the limb-joined demons murmured and said to the other limb-joined demons:
"I don't care if there are traitors among you, go find me more beastmaster hearts, more extraordinary life hearts and brains as sacrifices. If it's not enough, use your own to fill it up..."
"As you command!"
The limb demons looked frightened, and naturally they did not dare to resist, or even have any objections.
Because after the transformation ceremony, they have lost the ability to resist, and the leader can kill them with just a thought.
Especially once the limb-joining demon reaches the peak of the leadership level, it will go crazy inexplicably, and finally turn into a pool of blood and be taken away by the leader.
The obvious reason is that the ancient gods have become more polluted and have not been fed enough flesh and blood. However, they are not fools and know that there must be something inside. However, in the face of the absolute power gap, they do not even dare to resent.
Even if they are used as pawns by the leader of the limb-repairing demon, they still want to live.
After all, as long as the leader advances to Morning Star, they can try to attack some weak cities, harvest a large amount of flesh, flesh and limbs, and gain a long life.
This unrealistic ambition drives them to keep moving forward.
Just when this group of limb-joining demons were about to set off, snowflakes suddenly started to fall in the sky, making all the limb-joining demons stunned:
"Will it still snow in the Ant Mound Secret Realm?"
Although the desert terrain has a huge temperature difference between day and night, the secret realm of the Desert Ant Mound was ultimately born under the influence of the powerful ancient alien species and a group of dependents, so the weather environment is essentially fixed.
A limbed demon curiously stretched out his hand and touched the snowflakes. The crystal clear hexagonal crystals reflected the bright light in the moonlight.
"Why didn't it melt..." The limb-joining demon was stunned for a moment, then shouted: "No, it's the enemy..."
Before he finished speaking, the snowflakes on his hand erupted with cold air, covering him and instantly freezing him into an ice sculpture. His expression was still horrified, as he had no idea that death would come so suddenly.
"Retreat quickly!"
"Don't touch the snowflakes!"
"..."
The snowflakes covered a huge area. Even if the limb demons quickly retreated, a dozen unlucky ones were still frozen. With a popping sound, they instantly shattered and turned into ice dust all over the ground.
"What the hell is this?"
This scene caused all the limb-repairing demons to get into a mess, and they quickly used the limb-repairing technique to drive away Feng Xue, but instead attracted the snowflakes to speed up and get closer, and they could only flee in all directions for a while.
Even if they knew that the attack was coming from the clouds, with their abilities, they were unable to attack at high altitudes, let alone that the thick cloud covered hundreds of meters in diameter.
"A bunch of trash!"
The leader of the limb-joined demon looked at the heavy snow that was about to approach the altar, snorted coldly, raised the arm of the giant storm demon among the eight arms, and the airflow around him suddenly accelerated.
Limb grafting technique - Lanlong Fist!
The giant storm demon is an ancient being who serves the ancient Lord of Storms, and every move he makes is a natural disaster of the storm - the servant of the Lan Wanglong. Although the Lan Wanglong is no longer in the ecological domain, it has even disappeared for a long time.
However, their bloodline has been transformed, inherited these spiritual gifts, and turned them into unique racial skills. Among them, those with strong bloodline may even have the characteristics of dragon transformation.
But now, this power has been stolen by the limb-repairing demon.
Hoo ho ho!
The leader of the limb-joining demon punched out, turning it into an almost substantial hurricane that swept across. The terrifying wind speed swept up the goose feathers and snow in an instant. He did all this without stopping, carrying the wind sickle that could easily cut flesh and blood straight into the sky.
Heavy clouds.
boom!
The moment it reached the clouds, a huge ice shield of tens of meters appeared. The collision between the two caused a violent explosion, and the terrifying impact turned into a ring of air and swept in all directions.
Hoo ho ho!
The strong wind blew, and the huge clouds were directly shaken away. A man in white riding a white lion, the leader of the pinnacle creature Ice Demon, appeared. He was floating in the air and looked down at the leader of the limb demon on the ground with solemn eyes.
He didn't expect that he had been changing positions and was preparing to destroy the altar first, but his position was locked in the clouds in an instant.
If he hadn't asked the Ice Demon White Lion to use the freezing ice wall in time, he would probably have been directly hit hard.
This guy is far more terrifying than the rumors say. At least in terms of perception, he is no less than a Morning Star level being.
The leader of the limb-joining demon looked at the beast master who was facing a formidable enemy and sneered:
"Human, are you planning to come to your door as a sacrifice?"
The man in white mocked back unceremoniously: "I'm just here to send a loser who gave up his dignity and pride as a human being and turned into a monster on his way."
"The light of day does not realize how deep the night is. You are just a lucky person favored by fate. I don't have such a good life, but it doesn't matter. I will get everything I want with my own hands."
The leader of the limb-joining demon said indifferently, and used the Lanlong Fist again, but was dodged by the prepared ice demon white lion. At the same time, he used ice breath, causing ice crystals to fall all over the sky.
The temperature of the air dropped suddenly, and everything they passed was covered with a thick layer of ice. The limb-repairing demons were so frightened that they turned around and ran away, but many of them were still directly frozen into ice slag on the ground.
The ice crystals turned into a storm and roared towards the altar!
However, when the leader of the limb-joining demon faced this blow, the storm monster did not continue to take action. Instead, he crossed his arms with an arrogant attitude. Among them, the arms belonging to the magma demon waved and clenched their fists together.
boom!
Like a volcanic eruption, hot magma bursts out and sweeps away in an instant. It collides with ice crystals and instantly melts them into water. It is poured on the magma and evaporates into large sheets of water vapor, blurring the vision.
However, the magma was also blocked and began to solidify into a stone pillar formed by the accumulation of a large amount of solidified magma, standing in mid-air.
"so close……"
Before the man in white could breathe a sigh of relief, he noticed that the magma pillar was moving. From the corner of his eye, he saw after the water vapor dispersed. The six arms of the leader of the limb-joining demon on the ground hugged him and swung him sideways. Just like Lu Yu here,
You may think that in Journey to the West, Sun Wukong wields the enlarged golden cudgel, wielding unrivaled power, and sweeps away all the heavenly soldiers and generals!
Oops!
However, this time he had no time to dodge, and was hit along with the Ice Demon White Lion. His figure was like a meteor, and he instantly fell into the ground, creating a huge crater.
"If you can fly, I'll shoot you to death."
The leader of the limb-joining demon said lightly, and the two arms belonging to the tree man formed a mysterious seal, condensing the ancient cipher text that shimmered with green light, and turned it into a magic circle, which instantly spread out a large number of tree roots, turning into trees.
His hands were used overwhelmingly towards the middle-aged man.
Advanced limb grafting technique—Hand of the Sea of Trees!
The power originating from the peace-loving ancient tree people turned into the minions of the limb-joining demon at this moment, helping him to devour everything.
The middle-aged man summoned the other ice beasts the moment he landed, and together with the Ice Demon White Lion, he formed an ice wall to resist. However, facing the terrifying sea of trees, he was instantly shattered, and the weak golden beast was thrown away.
The remaining tree roots grabbed at him.
Death is so close.
Rumble!
Just when he was desperate, deafening thunder sounded in his ears, and a purple thunder javelin cut through the sky and fell, hitting the sea of trees, exploding instantly, turning into countless electric currents, and annihilating it!
"Bai Mingyi, let's say you are from the Ice Lion School. Why do you feel you are braver than the Fire Snake School? You dare to challenge the top limb-joining demon by yourself. You really think of yourself as the savior!"
Along with the sound of idleness, a man in black leather riding a black panther with a thunder mark on his forehead appeared. He dyed a cool blue-purple broomstick and looked like a bosozoku. He shook his head coquettishly and said with a smile:
"Look, I have to save you at the critical moment!"
"Chen Yuxiao, you are already in your thirties, don't you really feel ashamed to still be wearing such fancy clothes?" Bai Mingyi's first words when he got up was to point at the outfit.
Chen Yuxiao's face froze, and she already regretted saving this guy. After knowing him for more than ten years, he was still so old-fashioned.
But this guy has a good face. When he was in school, he was directly attracted by the daughter of the dean of the Ice Lion School, and he even got an ice demon white lion as a gift. He was a winner in life.
In order to prevent Bai Mingyi from continuing to nag, Chen Yuxiao quickly changed the topic and said:
"Stop talking, let's deal with the guy in front of us first!"
"Just you?"
The leader of the limb-joining demon spoke indifferently. Even if there was an extra thunder beast master, it would not be a difficult problem for him to solve. He could just add two more sacrifices.
"Of course we are not enough, but..." Chen Yuxiao chuckled: "What about adding them?"
As he finished speaking, a slight vibration suddenly came from the ground.
At first it was just a slight tremor, but soon it turned into a beating of gravel, as if an army was pressing down on the territory.
The leader of the limb-joining demon also seemed to sense something. He looked into the distance, showed a look of disbelief, and murmured:
"How can it be……"
At the junction of the yellow sand and the sky, figures suddenly appeared.
The wolf rushes, the giant snake crawls, the eagle spreads its wings and flies, and the giant steel earthworm escapes from the ground...
Each beast master is standing or climbing on the body of the beast. Some of them are from adventure groups, some from schools, and some are loners. Their strengths vary. Some are strong, including golden beast masters, and some are weak.
Maybe it's just an ordinary silver beast master.
But at this moment, the goals of these hundreds of beast masters are particularly unified, that is...
altar!
"How come there are so many human beast masters?"
"Is this the special department coming to encircle and suppress us?"
Facing such a mighty formation, even the limb-repairing demons couldn't help but panic, with a look of fear on their faces.
Although they may appear arrogant and domineering when hunting humans, they are essentially just a ragtag group of people. In fact, they specialize in picking out singles and hunting them down, and even resort to sneak attacks.
If we encounter an army of human beastmasters on a frontal battlefield, it's hard to say whether we will win or lose.
Chen Yuxiao looked at the astonished leader of the limb-joining demon and said with a smile:
"Sorry, what we humans are best at is just group fights!"
cheap!
The expression is so mean!
Bai Mingyi resisted the urge to slap the jerk and asked curiously:
"Since when did you have such great connections?"
According to his understanding, although he has a cheerful personality as a child, he is not very popular because he is too coquettish. How come he is able to respond to everything at once?
"Of course you are impressed by my handsomeness..." Chen Yuxiao shook his broom head and was about to say a few words, but he still couldn't catch the latter's faint eyes and spread his hands and said:
"How did you find this place?"
"I met a purple fog crow and sent a message, saying that someone set up a trap to sacrifice us..." When Bai Mingyi said this, he suddenly realized: "Could it be..."
"That's right, we were all lured here by the mysterious man behind the foggy crow!" Chen Yuxiao had an arrogant smile on his lips, "Although I don't know what the purpose of this guy is, the reward for annihilating [Flesh and Flesh Wings] is
Jin, I’m attracted to you!”
Bai Mingyi nodded. The most important thing now is to deal with the limb-joining demon leader and not let the sacrifice ceremony succeed.
A large number of beastmasters arrived and directly confronted the limb-repairing demons.
"Damn limb-scratcher!"
"My Ayu was only twenty years old, and he died here like this..."
"My brother was attacked by these dogs on his first adventure!"
Many of them had relatives, friends, and lovers who killed and took away their hearts as sacrifices. Therefore, as soon as they received the message from the Misty Crow, they rushed here directly. At this moment, they looked at the altar and wept bitterly, with the fire of revenge surging in their eyes.
.
Together with a new transformed spiritual beast master, there are already three top powerhouses under the Morning Star, overwhelming the limb-joining demon in numbers.
Chen Yuxiao looked at the silent leader of the limb-joining demon, and bullied the demon and shouted: "Surrender, A-Jie, there are all beast masters outside, you have been surrounded!"
Bai Mingyi put his hand on his forehead and couldn't help but move away a little distance. It was really embarrassing.
But at the same time, he was also observing the new group of beast masters to see where the mysterious man who drove the fog crow to report was hiding.
What is his purpose?
Facing these menacing beastmasters, many limb-repairing demons have already decided to give up. If caught by them, they will definitely be cut into pieces.
If the leader hadn't taken control of their lives, they would have probably turned around and fled.
"Chief, how about we withdraw first..."
An elite-level limb-joining demon couldn't help but speak, but before he could finish his words, his head was crushed, red and white stuff flowed all over the floor, and the body was thrown into the meat ball to swallow.
The silent limb-joining demon leader turned his head and glanced at a certain corner, then looked at the crowd, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said slowly:
"Although I don't know who is causing the trouble, I did bring you together, which saved me a lot of effort. In that case, accept this great gift and use your flesh and blood as a sacrifice for my promotion to overlord!"
"Arrogant!"
There was a cold snort among the beast masters, but the leader of the limb-joining demon did not speak. He just opened his eight arms and each made a seal. The majestic spirituality burst out instantly, turning into a small blood-colored light pillar and rising into the sky.
The limb-joined demon leader's body began to deform, his flesh and blood proliferated rapidly, and at a speed visible to the naked eye, he transformed into a giant twenty-meter-tall monster that was half human and half snake.
It has no face, and is shrouded in a black mist. There are pitch-black poisonous snakes protruding from it, spitting out snake messages, with eight huge arms, and the lower body is a huge snake tail. It slaps on the ground and directly shakes the Gobi Desert.
An extraordinary structure created with huge extraordinary spirituality!
"Trouble!"
When Bai Mingyi and others saw this scene, their faces turned ugly, and they could already predict that a hard battle was coming.
Has that mysterious man appeared?
…………………………………………
On the other side, Lu Yu, who was walking in the dark cave, looked at the fine sand that was rolling down due to the vibration, and couldn't help but sigh:
"The battle above is really fierce!"
At this moment, he was in the underground cave directly below the altar.
The first step in conceiving the plan was to remove the fuel from the cauldron and reduce the number of sacrifices. The second step was, of course, to drive away the tigers and devour the wolves!
Since the leader of the limb-joining demon wanted to collect hearts by killing the lone beastmasters, Lu Yu refused to let him do so and directly notified these beastmasters to gather together.
Even if not everyone will believe him, as long as more than 80% of the people gather, we can avoid attrition and put huge pressure on the limb-repairing demon side.
But the result was better than he expected. Because of the blessing of hatred, a large number of beast masters gathered together, and they were large enough and safe enough to attract more beast masters to join.
Whether it's for profit, ideals or future security, they don't want to sit back and watch the birth of an overlord monster with human intelligence.
Lu Yu did not join the battlefield above, naturally it was not because of cowardice.
Anyone who has played LOL or MOBA knows that no matter how good your kills are in the early stage or how many kills you get, as long as you make a few mistakes, it is easy to give back your advantage, or even lead to failure.
Because ultimately, this is a tower pushing game.
As for Lu Yu, because his own level and equipment were so poor, even if he had an overlord cub, Little Spider, he could only cross the ranks to face the elite peak. Participating in battles at the leadership level or even the spiritual transformation level would simply cost him his life.
But if you want to get the maximum benefit, the best way is...
Steal the crystal!
Although it is located underground in the desert, there is also underground water, and the cave is quite humid and covered with moss.
After passing through the winding passage, Lu Yu soon reached the deepest point and saw a shocking scene.
Countless blood-colored roots protrude from the rock above the head, gathering together, covering the entire ground, and connecting to a huge embryo. These roots are like blood vessels, inserted into it, transporting black-red blood and injecting it into the body.
in.
The interior of the embryo also exudes a pale golden light, intertwined together, turning into a strange black gold luster, and emitting a sound as strong and powerful as the beating of a heartbeat.
Looks divine and filthy at the same time!
Lu Yu looked at the big guy in front of him and grinned:
"Got you!"
