This young man is none other than Hu Qi who has returned to his normal appearance.
As he spoke, he cast his eyes in front of him and saw a Tattered Black Banner suspended there.
Above the flag, there were wisps of black smoke, revealing an ominous meaning, as if it were a gathering of the darkest aspects of the world.
At this moment, this pole Tattered Black Banner has shrunk to two meters in length.
Hu Qi stretched out his hand to grab it, as if there was an invisible force pulling it.
Black Banner fell into his hands.
Suddenly, a chill spread instantly, as if what he was holding was not Black Banner, but a piece of ice that lasted ten thousand years.
Hu Qi raised Black Banner to his eyes and looked at it carefully.
The flag pole is made from the spine of an unknown black creature, and it feels like polished jade when held in the hand.
When it shook, there was a strange whistling sound echoing, and it seemed like there were thousands of innocent ghosts laughing ferociously.
However, there are a few obvious gaps at the corners of the flag.
As Hu Qi refined this flag, some fragmentary information about it flooded into his mind.
Hu Qi does not know the name and origin of this rod Black Banner.
I just obtained the ability information of Tattered Black Banner.
Its ability is called [Spirit Control]
It can arrest and imprison souls, consume the emotional power of living beings for one's own use, control spirituality, etc...
In short.
In Hu Qi's view, the ability of this Tattered Black Banner is somewhat similar to the Myriad Soul Banner often seen in previous novels.
But in comparison, the power of this Tattered Black Banner is more powerful and comprehensive.
It can control almost anything related to the soul.
The Dream Eye in this world is derived from the power of this Tattered Black Banner combined with the deepest nightmare in the hearts of all living beings in the world.
And this world Mind Realm is so stable because of the ability of this flag: Spirit Control.
As for the origin of this flag, there is no such information.
Except these.
There is also the memory of a person named 'Xin'.
This person is exactly the figure that emerged when Hu Qi used Crimson Sun Flame Fire to refine Tattered Black Banner.
That person is a native of this world.
From Hu Qi's point of view, it looks more like the first Heavenly Mandate Person born in this world.
'Xin' was born a long time ago.
It can even be traced back to the primitive times when people drank hair and blood.
In that era, the stronger the body, the higher the status within one's own group.
Because this means that you can hunt enough food.
And 'Xin' is an exception.
He is not physically strong, but is relatively thin.
However, he is very smart and good at thinking.
In order to solve the problem of food, fishing nets, spears, bows and arrows and other tools were made.
Therefore, there is no need to worry about food at all, and therefore he becomes the leader of a group.
However, he doesn't like fighting, and he doesn't have much interest in reproducing offspring.
What the One and Only likes to do is find a slightly flat stone to sleep on.
Because he has the ability that others do not have, he can freely control his dreams.
You can do whatever you want in it.
For example, becoming the strongest warrior can catch prey without using traps.
Another example is turning into a giant bird with wings, fluttering its wings and soaring in the sky.
only.
While sleeping, an accident happened.
His own consciousness entered a deep dream state.
By chance, his consciousness was sucked into Black Banner.
The physical body in the outside world died directly because it had not eaten for a long time.
Maybe it's because of the special nature of his soul.
Instead of being wiped out by the power of Black Banner, he became one of the souls, and the first soul.
Trapped forever.
As time goes by.
'Xin''s will gradually collapsed, and he wanted to break away from Black Banner and return to his own body.
However, it simply cannot be done.
Fortunately, because of the special nature of Tattered Black Banner.
Let 'Xin' watch the dreams of all living beings, thereby continuously growing and learning various knowledge.
This is also his the One and Only way to contact the outside world and a way to pass the time, so that he will not go crazy.
And in the meantime.
He discovered that Tattered Black Banner was using dreams as a medium to continuously absorb the emotional power of all living beings and repair itself.
He is the soul of the One and Only.
Over time, perhaps due to the influence of Black Banner, his consciousness became much stronger passively.
It can even borrow some power from Black Banner to interfere with reality.
This also made him change his original idea of leaving this place and gave him a hint of ambition.
He wants to completely control this Black Banner.
However, in the final analysis, he is just an ordinary person with some special talents.
Even if you are lucky enough to enter Tattered Black Banner and survive, you can even use a little power of Black Banner to interfere with reality.
But it is simply impossible to completely control Black Banner.
But he didn't give up and bided his time.
As time passes, the power he can control becomes stronger and stronger.
This Black Banner had no owner, it just passively swallowed the power of emotions, which gave him an opportunity to take advantage of it.
He used the power of Black Banner to create the top ten Primal Dream Eye.
After these Dream Eye absorb the power of emotions, some of it will be fed back to Black Banner.
Black Banner did not stop the behavior that was beneficial to oneself.
However, the power consumed to create Primal Dream Eye is too huge.
It is completely out of proportion to the power of feedback.
Black Banner blocks this behavior.
But he did not give up there and turned to create the relatively weak Dream Eye.
In this way, the power of feedback is barely equal to the consumption of manufacturing Dream Eye.
Black Banner did not stop it.
In order to accelerate the consumption of Black Banner's power, "Xin" continued to create Dream Eye, and at the same time set up numerous arrangements to attract the powerful Dream Controller into Strange Painting.
Perhaps it is because these people themselves are Dream Controller.
The soul is eroded by Dream Eye.
And Dream Eye itself is transformed by the power of Black Banner.
The souls of these people have not been wiped out.
But like 'Xin', he was left in Black Banner.
However, these people did not survive.
Instead, it was absorbed and swallowed by 'Xin'.
As the first soul among Black Banner, his power is so powerful that it is impossible for him to be comparable to these Dream Controller.
The result is of course no suspense.
In the end, only those Dream Controller bodies were left.
That is, the figures who besieged Hu Qi after he sailed to the island.
"Interesting, but this is too much of a coincidence."
Hu Qi's eyes moved slightly.
This person's memory is intact.
But after reading Hu Qi, I felt a little weird.
This shouldn't be that simple.
This 'Xin' can enter deep dreams and happens to be immortal.
I'm afraid it's not a fluke.
It's World Will's plan.
World Will, as the aggregate of the world of sentient beings itself, although it is in a state of silence most of the time, it will only operate according to certain rules.
But this does not mean that World Will is a fool.
Especially in the world of Shallow Water Zone, surrounded by the spiritual sea water of Sea of Sumeru.
Autonomy can only be higher.
And according to the inherited memory of Three-Eyed Yuan Snake.
Some powerful World Will will even be reincarnated as adults.
Then start from scratch, gradually become stronger, and become the co-owner of heaven and earth, thus intervening in the internal development trajectory of the world.
This kind of person is a true child of fate, more terrifying than Heavenly Mandate Person.
Reaching the pinnacle and suppressing an entire world is a destiny.
Black Banner Although the origin is unknown, it is definitely a treasure. From the broken marks on it, we can guess that it is not something from this world.
It's probably just a coincidence that I fell into this world.
Face this kind of thing.
What the world itself wants to do most is to master it.
This is the nature of the world.
In this way, it makes sense why those Dream Controller are the strongest.
Even Heavenly Mandate Person will enter this place, so no one can escape and die here.
All of this was probably done intentionally by World Will.
The purpose is to enhance the power of Heavenly Mandate Person, the "Xin" in Tattered Black Banner, and help the other party master Black Banner.
Perhaps, continue this way.
It is really possible for the other party to control this Black Banner tens of millions of years later, and even use it to strengthen the origin of the world and go to Deep Water Zone.
But unfortunately, it was intercepted by Hu Qi before it could succeed.
As for Wei Fan, it is the body that 'Xin' chose for himself.
After years of accumulation, he has been able to break away from Black Banner for a short time.
He wanted to refine Wei Fan into a strong enough body.
As for the other party's rebirth.
Maybe it doesn't exist at all.
Just a false memory woven by World Will.
If World Will is the director.
Then the other party just revealed to Wei Fan the situation of the script that will happen in the future.
Based on the current information, his guess is probably close to ten.
"Looking at it this way, this person is really pitiful!"
Hu Qi shook his head.
He looked at the Tattered Black Banner in his hand.
"What exactly is this flag? Could it be related to the true God?"
In 'Xin's' memory, the time when Black Banner appeared cannot be studied at all.
All he knew was that when he entered a deep dream, he discovered that Black Banner already existed in it.
But now, Hu Qi has already refined it.
But it is different from those Dream Eye that he refined and devoured.
He just cleared away the traces in this Tattered Black Banner and planted his own soul imprint.
To identify is to make it a part of yourself.
As for destruction or absorption, it cannot be done at all.
Even using Three-Eyed Yuan Snake and Spirit Devouring Talent is of no avail.
To this.
He had a guess in his mind.
Perhaps this thing is related to the existence of the true god level.
Otherwise it makes no sense at all.
He shook his head, it was useless to think about this now.
What the One and Only can be sure of is that this Tattered Black Banner is definitely a good thing.
Being able to obtain this thing during this trip was an unexpected surprise for him.
Take back your thoughts.
Hu Qi stared at the chaotic space in front of him.
Previously, he took action with all his strength, causing this space to be completely destroyed by Crimson Sun Hellfire.
According to common sense, the outside picture Strange Painting should also be destroyed.
In this case, the result is that this place becomes an isolated chaotic space.
For Dream Controller or Spirit Refining Venerable, it is almost impossible to escape from this space.
But it's nothing to Hu Qi.
He held Tattered Black Banner and waved it forward casually!
In an instant.
A crack suddenly appeared before his eyes.
Outside the crack, the real world scene is reflected in it like a mirror.
Hu Qi took one step forward, and his figure disappeared directly into the crack, disappearing instantly.
After Hu Qi left, this chaotic and disordered space instantly collapsed and disappeared, turning into nothingness.
Outside, it was already evening.
Golden Crow set in the west, and the remaining clouds on the horizon were stained as red as blood.
On the rooftop of a tall building, the figure of Hu Qi appeared out of thin air without any warning.
He looked towards the distant horizon, his perception spreading.
"Has it been three days already?"
A strange color flashed in his eyes and he murmured to himself.
"The next step is to deal with the second clone..."
Jingle bell bell...
An alarm sounded.
At the same time.
On the bed on one side, a palm slapped on the alarm almost the moment it rang.
Bang!
Perhaps due to excessive strength, the alarm clock rolled off the table and landed on the floor with a sound.
But the ringtone remains strong.
A few seconds later.
A young man of fifteen or sixteen years old with disheveled hair poked his head out from under the quilt and sat up from the bed.
Wearing slippers, the boy came to one side and bent down, picked up the alarm clock, closed it, and put it on one side.
He walked to the window and opened the curtains.
In an instant, a faint light filled the originally dark room.
Looking up into the distance, the dark ink-colored sky in the distance gradually recedes.
The sky to the east turned white.
Soon, a huge red sun slowly poked its head out.
Like a newborn child, the light emitted penetrated the mist between high-rise buildings in the early morning and fell on the young man's face.
"Thank you to the great Sun God for giving us warmth and light!"
Li Feng lowered his eyes, made a Sun Wheel Gesture with his hands on his chest, and prayed devoutly.
Then.
He changed his clothes, opened the door and walked out.
At this moment, there was no one in the living room.
Li Feng came to the dining table and stood there. There was a small note on the dining table, held down by a fruit plate.
There was a line of beautiful handwriting written on the note.
[Xiao Feng, breakfast is in the rice cooker, remember to eat more. ——Love your mother]
Seeing this, Li Feng smiled.
He is obviously used to this kind of thing.
He was originally an orphan.
When he was seven years old, he was adopted by his current adoptive parents, who treated him very well.
Going out early and coming back late every day is to provide him with a better life.
During this time, his parents had already gone to work.
Entering the kitchen, there are no surprises.
Sure enough, I saw breakfast cooked in the rice cooker.
However, he felt that the porridge was a little cold in the mouth and a little dark. It might be the porridge made with black rice.
Li Feng didn't care about this either.
After a simple breakfast and washing the dishes, Li Feng walked out of the house.
Because the middle school is just a few hundred meters away.
All you need to do is walk, no need to take a car at all.
Just when Li Feng entered the classroom.
I found that all the classmates were whispering to each other.
When I saw Li Feng coming in, my eyes seemed to have an indescribable meaning.
See this.
Li Feng looked at his best friend and deskmate sitting next to him and asked in confusion.
"Old Zhang, what happened?"
His deskmate is a strong young man named Zhang Lin.
Hearing this, Zhang Lin glanced at him.
A flash of surprise flashed across his face.
He immediately explained in a low voice.
"You haven't read the news, right? It's Nightmare Incident that happened in Lefang Mall over there at East Lake District! Thirty-one people have gone missing so far."
"Nightmare Incident? Thirty-one people missing?"
Li Feng's face changed slightly.
Nightmare Incident is an extremely terrifying thing. Once ordinary people are involved in it, they will almost die.
The disappearance is just because no body has been found. In this case, they are most likely dead.
He had been to East Lake District Lefang Mall before. It was separated by a river, about three or four kilometers away from here.
"Don't worry, Yao Fa Division's people have already arrived.
I heard that a third-level Blazing Sun Priest is leading the team this time. Solving this Nightmare Incident case will definitely be a piece of cake. "
It seemed that Li Feng was nervous.
Zhang Lin was relieved.
Hear the words.
Li Feng looked slightly calmer.
According to records.
Nightmare Incident, it has been around since ancient times.
At that time Nightmare Incident happened very frequently.
But eighty years ago, Sun God appeared in the world, and these ghosts were eliminated.
However, nightmares originate from the dark side deep in the human soul.
As long as there are intelligent creatures, that is, humans, they cannot be completely eradicated.
Fortunately, with the existence of Sun God Cult, every time Nightmare Incident occurs, it can be quickly resolved.
It won't cause too many casualties.
The Yao Fa Division mentioned by the other party is a special department composed of Sun God Cult and Yu Country.
The members are at least Blazing Sun Apostle who can perform Divine Art and are approved by Sun God.
Just when he still wanted to say something.
At this time.
There was a sound of spitting at the door.
Then, a potbellied and somewhat bald old man walked in from the door.
Seeing this, the two left, ended their conversation, and sat down honestly.
The day passed quickly.
School is almost over soon.
Li Feng The two of them walked together.
The two live in the same community, but not in the same building.
"Let's go to my house for dinner today."
Zhang Lin smiled and patted Li Feng on the shoulder.
"No, my parents are still waiting for me at home."
Li Feng shook his head and refused.
However.
Zhang Lin in front of him heard what Li Feng said.
A strange look flashed across his face.
Then, sigh.
"Fengzi, be considerate, if your uncle and aunt are still alive, they don't want to see you sinking like this..."
"Fuck, no, don't make me whip you. We are good buddies, but don't make fun of this kind of thing."
Listen to the words.
Li Feng's face turned ugly.
Zhang Lin opened his mouth, but didn't say anything after all. He shook his head, turned around and left.
Li Feng, on the other hand, returned home with an ugly face.
He has a good relationship with Zhang Lin, but he can't stand things like directly cursing his parents.
He didn't understand, okay, why the other party said such a thing.
At this time, there seemed to be movement.
A voice came from the kitchen.
"Xiao Feng, are you back?"
To this.
Li Feng My mind is still thinking about what happened just now.
He responded casually.
"You take a rest first, dinner will be ready soon."
The sound continued to come from the kitchen, vaguely mixed with the sound of water flowing.
"Where's my dad?"
Li Feng looked around and saw no trace of his father, so he couldn't help but ask.
"Your dad went out to do some shopping and will probably be back soon!"
Mom's voice replied.
Li Feng didn't think much about it.
But he didn't know what he thought of, so he raised his head and glanced towards the kitchen, only to see a familiar figure standing by the sink with his back to him.
Seeing this, Li shook his head.
He secretly cursed himself for being stupid.
He turned back to the room and put down his backpack.
Then he took out a mobile phone from the drawer.
As a middle school student, he has a mobile phone.
It's just that because the school's inspections are strict, I don't take it to school.
I usually just play when I'm free and bored.
However, just after he turned on his phone.
An information prompt sounded.
It is none other than Zhang Lin.
"I'm sorry, Fengzi, it's my fault. I shouldn't have exposed your scars."
Hearing this, Li Feng's anger that he had finally suppressed suddenly resurfaced.
What does it mean to reveal one's own scars?
This guy was apologizing on the surface, but underneath his words he was clearly still cursing himself.
Li Feng Without saying a word, he dialed the number directly. Soon, the call was connected.
"Hey!"
The voice of Zhang Lin came from the receiver.
Li Feng couldn't bear it anymore and cursed at the other end of the phone. He also said that his parents were alive and well, and his mother was cooking for him in the kitchen at the moment.
However, after Li Feng finished scolding, the imagined scene of Zhang Lin angrily scolding back did not appear.
After a few seconds of silence.
On the other end of the phone, the slightly hoarse voice of Zhang Lin came over.
"Fengzi, are you really crazy? My uncle and aunt were cremated just two days ago, how can they still be alive?"
