Mom's words made Lu Xin shut his mouth tightly and adjust his "vision" to the clearest level.

He also wants to know what Mom wants him to see clearly...

"Hiss..."

The Jack of Spades playing card in his hand was already struggling like a small animal as they got closer and closer.

It usually didn't dare to resist Lu Xin. It seemed to be extremely frightened and struggled with all its strength. The sharp edge almost cut off Lu Xin's fingers so that it could escape. However, Lu Xin squeezed it tightly, preventing it from controlling its own destiny.

At the same time, the rustling sound of silkworms eating was heard endlessly. The delicate sound penetrated into people's minds and made them go crazy.

Even the tip of his nose seemed to smell a fresh smell of blood, which was extremely uncomfortable.

Lu Xin looked at Mom, his heart contracting violently.

Her injuries were worsening rapidly.

Her clothes had been dyed red by blood, and it was smudged little by little, like a big red flower blooming.

And this kind of red flower is blooming more and more brightly, which makes people scared.

Moreover, Lu Xin can clearly feel that Mom is bearing this harm for himself.

Just like when she stood in front of him for the first time and helped herself block the bullets of the multi-barreled revolver.

Even then, when she saw Lu Xin's worried eyes, she just shook her head slightly and pointed downwards with a serious expression.

Lu Xin gritted his teeth to prevent his emotions from being too intense, and turned his head to look around.

Then, his entire expression suddenly became dull.

At this glance, Lu Xin felt that he should have seen the bottom of the abyss.

As he and Mom sank into the abyss, he had seen different scenes in the abyss.

But until now, he still felt that his understanding of the abyss was extremely superficial.

Now, he has not really fallen to the bottom of the abyss.

However, the "vision" created by his mental power was barely enough to allow him to see the lowest scenery...

... or rather, a human being!

Incomparably huge, and possessing endless ugliness, people.

Lu Xin reluctantly describes that kind of thing as a human being, because the huge body of that kind of thing has completely lost the shape of a human being. Only the huge tentacles and twisted abstract body can be seen, like piles of rotting meat, spread under the abyss.

In other words, not "like", but really rotten.

The thing's body was unimaginably huge, flooding the entire bottom of the abyss.

On the rotting body, one can even see dim eyes and immature human organs.

The twisted spiritual power bloomed from every part of its body, affecting the air in the abyss, extending out bit by bit, vaguely, as if forming a black mist-like gas, floating faintly and rolling in the abyss.

It seems to have been here forever, decaying forever.

He is a rotten world, and he is also his own corpse and tombstone.

Lu Xin The moment he saw it, he suddenly felt a strong sense of familiarity.

At the same time, a strong sense of fear arose.

This was a real feeling of fear, stronger than all the fears he had encountered in his life put together.

"Ah..."

His subconscious action was to hit himself on the head.

The force used was so great that I wished I could beat my brains out.

Because he had an illusion that his body seemed to be waking up inch by inch and becoming his enemy.

"Huh..."

At the same time, when Lu Xin saw the huge "monster" below, the monster seemed to also see him.

This monster should be dead.

But when Lu Xin saw it, its huge body slowly came to life inch by inch...

Lu Xin The feeling that the body is waking up inch by inch is an illusion, but it is real.

In the rotten body, granules began to grow one by one.

These sprouts raised their bodies hard and looked in the direction of Lu Xin.

The squirming flesh and blood is actually changing bit by bit, slowly growing into a human body, a human head, and facial features.

Each one of them is becoming more and more human-like, with more and more vivid expressions.

Suddenly he stretched out his arms and waved vigorously towards Lu Xin, with a fanatical expression on his face.

Lu Xin felt a calling.

His heart suddenly beat violently, and deep inside, he seemed to have a feeling of wanting to rush down and embrace them.

No, it should be to integrate into them, completely integrate into them, and become one of them...

"Okay..."

Mom has been looking at Lu Xin, even though her body has become a bloody person.

She endured the intense pain, remained rational, and looked at Lu Xin. It was only at this moment that she suddenly spoke in a low voice.

At the same time, she hurriedly hugged Lu Xin, whose body was shaking violently.

Lu Xin could smell the strong smell of blood and high-end perfume from her body, and at the same time felt her embrace. His confused head was suddenly stimulated at this moment, and he woke up from the huge illusion.

"Go quickly..."

He yelled subconsciously, hearing the tremor in his voice.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's okay..."

Mom's voice was also trembling, a trembling sound mixed with tension and pain.

As she said these words, Lu Xin heard the "click" sound of the scissors, and the strong attraction brought to her by the bottom of the abyss seemed to be alleviated. Then she felt that Mom was taking her body to the upper level quickly.

"Woooooooo..."

All kinds of complex shouts that could not be described in words suddenly sounded from below.

Lu Xin didn't even dare to look down at this moment, but even if he didn't look, he strangely knew what was happening below.

They were "people" growing out of the body below. They were roaring angrily, with emotions of betrayal and jealousy on their faces. They worked hard to stretch their bodies one by one, extending upwards quickly like tentacles.

The whole abyss was shaking.

Lu Xin could feel the smell of putridity and despair surrounding him, and countless screams poured into his mind.

Before he knew it, he was crying.

This was the first time that he felt like he could do nothing and felt his own insignificance.

But fortunately, Mom hugged him tightly and rushed towards the upper level in the endless chaos.

Lu Xin This is also the first time that Mom feels so real.

Feel the warmth coming from her body, feel her holding on to her determination.

You could even feel the trembling of her body as she endured every pain.

From an abyss of despair, she exhausted all her strength in her life and must bring herself to the upper world...

It's like a tug of war.

And her opponent is something desperate and powerful...

Rumble...

Lu Xin heard a series of sounds of landslides and ground cracking and rolling thunder, and then the sound of a million desperate souls crying in despair. He seemed to be walking numbly in a world that was being destroyed, and he had lost himself.

He could only let Mom drag him along.

Sometimes he fell into the abyss in despair, and sometimes he was as peaceful as sleeping in warm water, almost forgetting the time.

Therefore, he had almost no idea how long he had been in this state, nor what he had experienced later.

He could only feel joy, sadness, anger, and all kinds of emotions pouring in in the desperate space, drowning him.

I was so groggy that I had no idea how much time had passed.

He fell into a trance like a drowning man.

The chaos and roars that had passed were still echoing back and forth in his dreams, as if they were entangled with him forever.

Until a certain moment, a clear glimmer of light came into view.

He woke up suddenly and found that he was already under the starlight, surrounded by withered yellow weeds.

In the distance, the lights of the base shine like stars.

Lu Xin felt the sense of security in the real world. After a long time, she finally slowly turned around and saw Mom sitting next to her, holding her knees with her hands. Her body was covered with large amounts of blood, and the horrific wounds refused to disappear...

Sensing Lu Xin waking up, she slowly turned her head, her face pale and her eyes slightly red.

"I'm sorry..."

She whispered, "But I have to let you see it."

Lu Xin For a long time, I didn't know what to say, or in other words, my logical thinking had not yet recovered.

After a long time, he suddenly took a deep breath and said to Mom, "Just now... what on earth was that?"

"It's the Beginning."

Mom replied softly, "Things that are already dead, but can never truly die."

"It is hiding in the deepest part of the abyss, waiting to be awakened by others."

"What you just felt is its power."

"That's what I want you to see, the essence of Sixth Step."

"..."

"Sixth Step..."

Lu Xin even feels a little unbelievable: is such a terrifying thing just Sixth Step?

Mom saw Lu Xin's confusion, but did not try to give him a detailed explanation. Instead, he looked at him seriously and said softly:

"I must let you see this power, just to tell you that there is such a power in this world."

"Besides, you'll meet a lot of people in the future."

"They will have countless plans, some are confrontation, some are surrender, some are inheritance, or even cleanup or research..."

"But their purpose is to inherit the power at the bottom of the abyss."

"Perhaps each of these plans has its own starting point and rationale, but I don't believe it..."

"..."

"Then..."

Seeing Mom's serious look, Lu Xin was slightly surprised. "What do you believe?"

Mom turned to look at him and said softly, "I believe you."
