Looking at the third ghost god Kaija of the Afterimage who was about to solidify, Lu Chen was not too surprised. He had said before that the land of shadows was filled with countless filthy auras and shadow energy.
These energies cannot be absorbed by most humans, and therefore, ordinary humans who enter this place will die within a very short period of time.
The warriors with Qi and blood had a hard time, too. They didn't want to be corroded by the filthy air, so they could only use their own Qi and blood to resist everything here.
But just like ordinary people entering a room full of poisonous gas, although they can hold their breath, how long can they hold on?
It is also because of this that not many people will enter the land of shadows to cleanse evil spirits.
But Lu Chen is different. Lu Chen, who is protected by the third ghost and god, can not only enter this place, but he does not need any protection in the shadow land. The third ghost and god will absorb the shadow breath.
Even, the breath absorbed can be fed back to Lu Chen.
After being possessed by the third ghost and god, the reason why Lu Chen's attacks were accompanied by shadow energy was because of the effect of the third ghost and god feeding him back.
At the same time, the power of shadow can also make Lu Chen's body lighter.
Just like a tiger returning to the mountains or a dragon returning to the sea, it can be said that the third ghost and god is just like returning home in the land of shadows.
At the same time, while the third ghost and god was protecting Lu Chen, he was also absorbing the shadow energy and growing.
After entering the Land of Shadows continuously and staying here long enough, the third ghost has absorbed enough energy.
Now, like the first ghost god Kazan of the Blade Soul and the second ghost god Puhu Meng of Corrosion, it can be solidified.
But the reason why a taboo is a taboo is because improving it will not only gain strength, but also bring danger.
"The backlash is coming."
Closing his eyes tightly and remaining vigilant, Lu Chen waited for the backlash.
Lu Chen didn't let Lu Chen wait for long. As the ghost shadow behind him completely solidified, the third ghost and god, who was like half of Lu Chen's body, pounced directly on him and became one with him.
When the third ghost and god rushed towards him, Lu Chen only felt a chill in his body. When he came to his senses again, Lu Chen found that part of his body had lost all flesh and blood and had completely transformed into a shadow.
"The backlash of the third ghost and god turned me into a shadow creature?"
The backlash effect of the third ghost and god was indeed something that Lu Chen did not expect. He did not expect that this time the ghost and god's attack would not start from the will, but to weaken the body.
Lu Chen had a feeling that if his body completely turned into a shadow, he would disappear completely and Lu Chen would become a shadow monster when he came out again, a shadow monster whose consciousness was invaded by a third ghost or god.
However, feeling all this, Lu Chen didn't feel the slightest bit worried, and even had the urge to laugh wildly.
No wonder he was like this, it was the third ghost who completely hit the iron plate.
"I would be a little worried if you started with will, but my strong body is what I am most proud of!"
A smile spread across Lu Chen's lips, and without any other movement, Lu Chen, who was sitting cross-legged, just pumped his heart, and the transformed blood began to flow rapidly in Lu Chen's body.
The rapidly flowing qi and blood used Lu Chen's body as a boundary to fight against the shadow energy. The quality of the shadow energy was not low, and Lu Chen's blood was at the intermediate level of gold, but with such powerful qi and blood, it would take two strands to consume a trace of the shadow power.
But there wasn't much else about Lu Chen. He was strong and strong, and he was pumping the blood in his body with all his strength. There was even the sound of rushing water coming from his body.
Washed by a huge amount of blood, the backlash of the shadow energy was quickly resisted. Then, all the shadow energy was pushed out of Lu Chen's body. Even in the end, the shadow body of the third ghost and god was pushed out of Lu Chen's body.
The blood was stained with blood.
At this point, the backlash of the third ghost and god was ended by Lu Chen.
After standing up and moving his body, Lu Chen couldn't help but smile.
"If I had known you were starting with the body, I would have advanced you first."
"Well, it's not too late now. The ghosts and gods in the first stage are phantoms. The ghosts and gods in the second stage have solid bodies and can go out alone. According to my prediction, the ghosts and gods in the third stage should control the rules and become divine creatures. At that time
The backlash will be even more violent than it is now, and it will be difficult for my will to resist the invasion of divine creatures."
"But if the feast advances a few more times, my body will definitely be able to withstand it. On the contrary, I can definitely let the third ghost and god advance first."
"I don't know what abilities the third ghost and god will have when they reach the third stage."
Lu Chen could not yet imagine what abilities the third ghost and god would possess after becoming a divine creature, but the solidified third ghost and god made Lu Chen quickly understand its abilities.
However, now is not the time to think about this, because after completely surrendering to the third ghost, Lu Chen discovered that at this time, he was no longer in the wilderness of the Shadow Land.
Looking around, Lu Chen discovered that there was a weird castle where he was.
What made Lu Chen narrow his eyes even more was that he had seen this castle before.
Saw it from the reflection in the lake.
"I was drawn in by the castle reflected in the lake."
Being attacked while advancing was the thought that came to Lu Chen's mind after entering this place, but soon, Lu Chen overturned his suspicion.
Because, he discovered that he could indeed see the castle, but his location was not in front of the castle gate, let alone inside the castle, but on the edge of a mountain.
Looking up, Lu Chen found that the castle was built on a mountain.
No, the entire mountain should have been hollowed out and turned into a huge castle covering several kilometers and reaching a height of 800 meters.
At the foot of the mountain is a small town, and Lu Chen is on the edge of the town.
"Unexpectedly, my idea of building a city using an entire mountain has already been done by others."
"Besides, this castle looks like it has been through a great war!"
The castle was dilapidated, and traces of a large number of battles were scattered throughout the castle. From the scars, Lu Chen could confirm that a very tragic war had definitely occurred here.
Not only was the mountain broken, the town here was also full of ruins. But what surprised Lu Chen was that there were a large number of people wandering around here unconsciously.
Of course, if they can be called "people".
Lu Chen saw someone, and his gaze seemed to stimulate the "people" here. Immediately, countless heads turned in Lu Chen's direction, scarlet eyes staring closely at Lu Chen.
However, there was no trace of reason in those eyes, only violence and cruelty.
"Sure enough, there are no normal humans here."
He sighed in his heart, but Lu Chen had no idea of fighting them. Lu Chen was still quite afraid of the castle.
As Lu Chen thought, a dark shadow appeared behind Lu Chen.
After the shadow appeared, it immediately rushed towards Lu Chen's body.
With a "swish", the figure completely blended into Lu Chen's body.
When the shadow rushed into his body, Lu Chen felt a cool energy flowing into his body and mind.
But the difference this time is that Lu Chen can completely control the third ghost and god integrated into his body.
Without any intention of refusing, Lu Chen let his body actively merge with the third ghost and god.
As the two merged, a large number of shadow magic patterns appeared on Lu Chen's bronze skin. At the same time, his body also became illusory, as if the transparency had been reduced.
Under the fusion of the third ghost and god, his flesh and blood was transformed into shadow again.
And there is naturally a reason for doing this.
At this time, Lu Chen already knew that in the lower interface, whether it was hell, the abyss, or the land of nightmares, the capital of the undead lacked the things necessary for the flesh and blood body in this world.
Life-sustaining things like oxygen, food, and water are scarce, but endless poisonous gas, lava, and other things that can damage flesh and blood are everywhere. Therefore, the bodies of the creatures living in the lower interface look very weird.
Shadow bodies, undead creatures, nightmare creatures, and demons that are immune to most poisonous gases and fires are the favorites of the lower interface.
Of course, some people can also use the energy in their bodies to block it, but it is very difficult for one person to fight against the world. Therefore, although humans in the upper plane and the real world will travel to the lower interface, they rarely live there.
But Lu Chen is different. The third ghost is the incarnation of the shadow. Lu Chen who surrenders to it will naturally get some of the benefits.
The flesh-and-blood body can transform into a shadow state at any time, which is one of them.
Of course, Lu Chen, who had no control over the rules, could only transform into a half-flesh, half-shadow state.
As half of his body turned into shadow, Lu Chen felt a lot more relaxed, and he felt like he was about to fly.
This was not an illusion. With a random movement, Lu Chen's figure appeared a few meters away.
After half of his body was transformed into shadow, most of Lu Chen's weight disappeared. Of course, the flesh, blood, blood, and blood did not disappear in vain. They were transformed into nearly endless shadow power, which allowed Lu Chen to do many things.
Of course, now was not the time to think about this. Seeing that the awakened "residents" in the town were about to come over, and the castle in the distance was also paying attention, Lu Chen's mind moved and he took his own steps.
With a "swish" sound, Lu Chen completely disappeared from the castle.
…
In an absurd void, countless bubbles float around.
Looking from the outside, you can see a lot of light and shadow in the bubble. In the light and shadow, there are complete totem pillars standing on the ground, and there are also broken castles floating in the gray bubble.
Lu Chen took a step out of the dilapidated castle. When he opened his eyes again, what he saw was a scene of countless bubbles.
"Where is this?"
Doubts appeared in Lu Chen's mind. Fortunately, Kaija, the afterimage, is a ghost and god. Its consciousness contains a lot of information. Lu Chen, who surrendered to the third ghost and god, also obtained that information. Soon, Lu Chen knew that this was
where.
"In the gap between the Shadow Land and the Nightmare Land, the Nightmare Land actually appears as bubbles. It's so weird."
Lu Chen couldn't help but look at the large number of bubbles, but just when he was interested, suddenly, a terrifying pressure that made Lu Chen tremble physically and mentally came from a distance.
Turning his head stiffly, Lu Chen discovered that a nightmare creature that was as big as a whale but several kilometers in size was wandering from a distance.
When Lu Chen saw the monster, the place where Lu Chen was staring at the monster suddenly trembled, and then, a huge number of eyes appeared at the place where Lu Chen was staring, which also made Lu Chen shudder all over.
A shiver.
"Fuck, eyes appear when I look at my body. What kind of monster is this?"
"Sure enough, you can't look at powerful creatures too much."
Just when Lu Chen felt something was wrong and wanted to run away, the monster's eyes just glanced at Lu Chen and then closed. Soon, most of the eyes were closed and turned into skin. Only three eyes were the same as Lu Chen's.
Chen looked at each other.
And this also made Lu Chen stunned for a moment.
"Does this mean you don't like me? No, I am protected by a third ghost and god, and that guy treats me as the same kind of person."
Although the protection of the third ghost and god caused the whale-like monster to treat Lu Chen as a kindred spirit, it did not launch an attack.
But Lu Chen didn't dare to stay here any longer, because Lu Chen found that besides the monsters, the eleven bloody full moons were also much clearer here.
Obviously, the Nightmare Land is the periphery of this world, and therefore, this place is very close to the Kingdom of God.
Of course, Lu Chen also saw that in addition to the eleven gods, there were thirteen furnace-like light sources lighting up here. Of course, the light sources were much smaller than the blood moon. Only the largest light source could be compared with the blood moon.
.
In addition to the nearby light source, in the distance, there is an illusory aura, but there are hundreds of kilometers of various mysterious objects, monsters, and even human figures appearing in Yunzhou and the Central Plains.
Those things seem to be a collection of totems, and they are also like ancestral spirits. They are guarding their respective bubbles.
"The thirteen light sources feel close to me. They are the totem poles of the twelve royal courts and the ancestral land of the wilderness. As for the various objects in the distance, they should be the guardian spirits of the Central Plains."
After just a glance, Lu Chen didn't have any intention of exploring carefully.
"There is no air here. It is not a place I can come to now. The third ghost and god are too high. Even if it leaks a little bit, it will be far beyond my current strength!"
Thinking in his heart, Lu Chen didn't complain too much. The third ghost at least allowed Lu Chen to see the reality of the world.
Moreover, being here, Lu Chen once again felt the beauty of Shadow's body.
After ordinary creatures arrive here, their strength will be greatly damaged without air, but Lu Chen does not need to breathe at all.
Of course, now is not the time to think about this. With one more step, Lu Chen will leave.
But this time, when he was about to take a step forward, Lu Chen's intuition melted into his godhead suddenly moved.
Under the trembling of Tianqi, Lu Chen found that his consciousness was connected with seven, no, now eight light points.
The light spots are very similar to the eleven blood moons hanging high in the sky and the nature of the thirteen furnace light sources.
Of course, those light sources and the blood moon were huge, like the sun and moon shining across the sky, while the light spots that Lu Chen contacted were like gravel.
But Tianqi's linkage with the third ghost and god gave Lu Chen an inexplicable feeling that he could enter those eight points of light.
Lu Chen was not too stupid. After a little thought, he understood the essence of the light spot.
"The light points associated with me are the projections of the Chen tribe's totem poles in the nightmare realm. Only they can meet the minimum qualifications to project the nightmare realm."
"This feeling of connection, I can rely on the third ghost to move from here to the realm of totem pole protection."
