Chapter 333: A gust of gloomy wind disturbs my heart
Cheng Lin suddenly raised his head.
Then he saw a vague black shadow flying suddenly from above his head.
It seemed to be an ugly bird. Its eyes were pale white and almost protruded from the eye sockets. Its wings were incomplete, but it was very fast. In its twisted beak, there were drops of blood, like saliva.
"So ugly."
Cheng Lin thought.
At the same time, almost instinctively, he gently stretched his right hand, and a ray of thought was transmitted into the lines on his palm.
Inside the initial space, in the central area, the refining furnace was constantly repairing the He Jian. In the green furnace cauldron, the quiet flames wrapped around the He Jian and burned slowly.
Suddenly, He Jian seemed to be summoned by something, and suddenly trembled. In the blink of an eye, the black fire on its surface collapsed, and it turned into a black light and flew out, and was held in Cheng Lin's hand.
"die!"
With the He Jian in his hand, Cheng Lin activated "Body Control" and his body suddenly tilted down like the best acrobat. However, the blade had already been drawn. With a swipe, the extremely sharp He Jian easily broke the bird's chest.
Cut it open and disembowel it.
The next moment, countless rotten internal organs sprayed out from the wound. Cheng Lin's expression changed and he hurriedly flew away to avoid. Compared to the attacks of birds, these things were obviously much more terrifying!
As soon as he dodged this one, Cheng Lin felt that the ground was shaking, and a "bear" with half of its head rotting and revealing its bones ran out of the thick fog in front of him. Its eyes were red and very ferocious.
Cheng Lin frowned, raised his toes, leaped upwards, and blended his body into the wind. The He sword thrust out from the void, rotated, and cut off the rotten head, but the remaining body still rushed forward until it hit him.
On the tree trunk, fell.
Before he could take a breath, various strange creatures roared towards him from all directions.
In addition to a group of demonized creatures from this world that were obviously not quite right, what surprised Cheng Lin the most was that there were also a large number of black elves among them!
"Why are there still black elves here? Aren't all of them attacking Krum?"
Cheng Lin frowned.
However, he had no time to think too much at this moment. He unfolded the He Jian and relied on the "Wind Journey" effect to hide in the wind. Every time he thrust out a sword, he killed one monster after another without even using any special powers.
Down.
Not long after, a mountain of corpses piled up where he was standing.
During the whole process, Cheng Lin did not use the "Silver Moon Cane". Although as long as he picked up the cane and released an "Eternal Burning Ring", it would be enough to burn the surrounding area, but he did not do this, but used it to grind
Practiced his own fighting skills.
However, gradually, Cheng Lin felt tired.
The monsters in the darkness seem to be endless. He has killed so many, but they have not decreased. On the contrary, there are more and more. Moreover, the combat power of these monsters is getting stronger and stronger, as if they are ascending level by level. Up to now,
The charging black elves were already equivalent to third-level combat power.
"Something's wrong."
Cheng Lin frowned.
He leaped into the sky, looked down at the earth, and felt a strange feeling in his heart.
I can't say what's wrong, but it always feels awkward.
Seeing him leaving the battle group, the monsters on the ground raised their heads and roared, and in the shadows farther away, there seemed to be more terrifying and powerful beings approaching quickly.
The entire area also became more eerie and terrifying.
The cold wind blew thousands of trees. In the darkness and silence, Cheng Lin was shocked to find that the trees "came alive" at the same time and began to twist. The branches like devil's arms twisted towards him.
in all directions.
Heaven and earth.
Endless.
"Something is wrong!"
Cheng Lin muttered to himself silently. After hesitating for a moment, he actually put away the He Sword with his backhand, lowered his guard, spread out his hands, and embraced this strange space.
"Woo~"
He closed his eyes, canceled the effect of Journey, and allowed himself to fall toward the ground, toward the monster, and toward the mountain of corpses.
The creepy wind beside his ears blew his hair, and his cheek felt like a cold hand was touching his skin.
It was as if the devil's whisper came from hell, impacting his mind like a demonic sound filling his ears.
Shaking his defenses.
The gusts of dark wind shook the trees, trying to disturb his mind.
Cheng Lin just remained unmoved.
Just fell.
fall.
fall.
Then, he smelled the foul breath of the monsters and felt the boundless pain. It seemed that he was being torn apart by sharp claws and fangs, and then being eaten.
"They're tearing me apart and eating me."
Cheng Lin realized clearly.
This is an extremely rare experience.
Then, Cheng Lin felt like the world was spinning.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself lying quietly on the bed in the dormitory.
He stood up, held on to the bed, and looked at the window.
Outside the window is the dark sky and the rolling light fog.
"Am I dead?"
After Cheng Lin looked at his recovered body, he got up, pushed open the door of the safe house, walked out again, and stepped on the branches of the World Tree.
Look carefully.
There was no squirming earth under his feet, and no dark sky above his head. There was silence all around, and the cold wind was blowing on his body. There were no monsters, no mountains of corpses, and no rivers of blood.
He was already standing in the mist, and the trunk of the World Tree was revealed before his eyes.
"Hallucination? So it's a hallucination?"
Cheng Lin's eyes showed a look of awakening.
However, after a moment, he shook his head: "It's not a simple hallucination, it's more like my soul has been dragged into a certain battlefield."
Cheng Lin realized that if he was killed on that battlefield, he would truly die.
Of course, because of the existence of the safe house, he can be reborn infinitely even if he dies.
That's why he woke up from the safe house.
However, monsters and those attacks obviously did not exist. This moment reminded him of mental illusion attacks. The teacher once talked about this in the class of the Ninth Academy. Individual practitioners of the perception system have similar abilities, but
No matter in terms of power, scope or degree of reality, it is not one ten thousandth of that of the scene just now.
"There is indeed a problem."
Cheng Lin murmured.
The next moment, a message came to his mind:
[Congratulations on completing mission 3]
[Your account receives 5 yuan]
[Task 4: You have uncovered the mystery of the soul illusion, and you have seen the reality. You need to follow the guidance of the cursor and enter the interior of the World Tree to complete the final purification]
[Tips: There are special rewards for completing tasks~]
…
Cheng Lin was silent for a moment, trying not to have too high expectations for the so-called "special reward".
"If there are no extravagant expectations, there will be no disappointments."
he said to himself.
Then, he dusted off his clothes, raised his eyes, and saw the "cursor" emerging.
"Huh~"
A gust of wind blew, and Cheng Lin took advantage of the wind and flew upwards along the cursor. He didn't know how long he flew. Just when he felt a little tired, he finally saw a "tree hole" in front of him.
It is better to say it is a tree hole than a huge arch.
This is a very large platform, and there are some altar-like buildings nearby. They should have been built by the elves, but now, there is no one here anymore.
Even the bones of the elves were not seen.
Taking a breath, Cheng Lin walked towards the dark hole, as if walking into a tunnel. Because of the darkness, he casually lit a low-temperature fireball for lighting. The further he walked in, the more empty and helpless he felt, like a long river of time.
, only the cursor under his feet still faithfully indicates the front, proving that he is still moving forward.
After walking for who knows how long, Cheng Lin saw a group of light.
He walked over quickly and plunged into it.
Then, my eyes suddenly brightened.
A space like a domed hall appeared in front of him.
Colorful lights illuminate the space.
His eyes followed the cursor and looked higher.
In this huge space, there is a floating island.
It is very small, at least it is indescribably small compared to the World Tree, and is probably only as big as a shopping mall.
At this moment, a huge creature was squatting on this deserted floating island. The moment Cheng Lin saw it, it also saw Cheng Lin.
