Chapter 322
"Nether King Cat."
Li Mu looked at Nether King Cat across the void.
Nether King Cat, who was resting, suddenly opened his eyes and looked around cautiously.
However, I couldn't find anything, so I could only run around in circles anxiously.
Li Mu activated Spark Phone's special effects retouching, turning the underworld opened up by Nirvana's talent into a special effects background. The moment it merged with reality, he arrived not far away from Nether King Cat. Nether King Cat, who was restless, noticed the existence of the underworld, and his body suddenly became blurred and approached.
Nether King Cat This kind of creature is said to be the pet of the ancient god of Hades.
The ancient God of Hades is the name Pale Lord was called by later generations, and his underworld was developed with Altar of the Dead of Pale Lord as the core.
If Nether King Cat is really Pale Lord's pet, inherited from the bloodline, after noticing Altar of the Dead's power that belongs to Pale Lord, there is a high probability that Nether King Cat will fall into the trap himself. After all, this silly cat does not look very smart.
Sure enough, facing the sudden appearance of the underworld, Nether King Cat ran straight into it.
Li Mu instantly retracts the special effects of the underworld, and releases Phoenix to lock Nether King Cat while escaping into the underworld.
Nether King Cat, who hadn't realized what was going on, had been hit by two Void Realm Shell blessed by Phoenix Soars Through Nine Heavens.
The virtual space that the first Void Realm Shell unfolded exerted a time pause. The time pause effect caused by up to 200 million damage, even an eighth-level transcendent could not break free in a short time. Then the power of the second Void Realm Shell was transformed into Light Origin Flame by the law of light.
Nether King Cat, which was covered by Light Origin Flame, was instantly burned to ashes and died.
But the next moment, an intact Pluto cat suddenly appeared on the bow of the Phoenix. It lowered its head and bit the Phoenix. It locked the shipboard fire with infinite suction from its mouth, treating the shipboard fire as the soul of life and forcibly swallowing it with its soul-eating talent.
"Nether King Cat has three lives and it's really hard to deal with."
Li Mu's eyes lit up and he praised.
Although Nether King Cat does not have nine lives like the cat in mythology, it still has three lives: one life when alive, one life for the soul after the body dies, and the last soul transforms into the True Spirit Obsession Body after death. Each life is forced to trigger and the combat power will not decrease but increase.
However, the second life is enough. If the third life is activated, it will completely perish in a short period of time.
Li Mu instantly merges Origin HuoZhong and Shipboard Spark, completely integrating its own Nirvana talent with the Nirvana characteristics of the ship's structure.
Phoenix instantly transformed into a lifelike Undying Nether Phoenix. Nirvana Flame wrapped around the soul state of Nether King Cat's second life. Nirvana was forcibly resurrected so that Nether King Cat could regain his body and be resurrected from the soul state.
This is not harm but healing, so Silly Mao actively cooperated after a short period of resistance.
When Nether King Cat regained his body from the soul state, Shamao suddenly felt an inexplicable closeness to Phoenix at his feet. Watching Apparition arrive at the bow of the ship, Li Mu hesitated and allowed Li Mu to step forward and hug him up.
"Meow meow..."
Nether King Cat licked Li Mu's fingers, rolled them into a ball and rubbed his hands intimately.
"Be good!"
Li Mu rubbed Nether King Cat's head and smiled with satisfaction.
Nirvana Flame can resurrect life, but the soul-controlling characteristic of Nirvana's talent can control the life resurrected by Nirvana Flame. When Nether King Cat does not resist Nirvana Flame's resurrection of itself, its soul can no longer escape the enslavement of the soul-controlling characteristic.
But being able to control it so smoothly is thanks to the weakening of the soul by Light Origin Flame.
If Nether King Cat didn't have three lives, theoretically Phoenix Soars Through Nine Heavens's blow with ten times the damage would be enough to kill an eighth-level extraordinary.
Of course, if it is that kind of extremely huge eighth-level super being, it cannot be killed in a short time.
Li Mu takes Nether King Cat into Mirror Void and begins to transform it into the new Mirror Spirit.
After the transformation, Li Mu sent Nether King Cat Mirror Spirit to Abyss Giant Star, and then Mirror Spirit took the initiative to go to Nightmare Dimension to find the undead devil clone.
There are still three Mirror Spirit left, and all his clones can be connected in series through the Mirror Realm.
If conditions permit, it is best to replace the seventh-level Holy Stone Mirror Spirit on the Candle Dragon clone with an eighth-level one.
Today's Phoenix Soars Through Nine Heavens has been used, and Li Mu is ready to capture the new eighth level tomorrow.
Seeing that it was still early, Li Mu locked the target and headed to the second forbidden area.
Two hours later, Li Mu followed the safe route selected by Abyss Eye who discovered the danger in advance and arrived at the second forbidden area.
Although it may be faster to kill them all the way, there is no need to waste time on things that are not beneficial.
Moreover, the noise made was too great, and it might trigger the taboo at the heart of Godforsaken Land.
He chose to wait for Phoenix Soars Through Nine Heavens to cool down, and then severely damaged the eighth-level transcendent with one blow to arrest him because he was worried about the taboo.
In the observation blind area of Abyss Eye, Godforsaken Land has the largest number of cores.
Some are environments, while others are living creatures.
These living creatures wander in the core layer of Godforsaken Land and will only leave the core layer when disturbed.
Li Mu deeply doubts that the danger involved may even reach the level of threatening the myth.
Li Mu stopped. The ruins of the city covered by the jungle in front were the second forbidden area.
Excluding the plants growing in the ruins, it can be roughly seen that these are the ruins of a church city. This type of city is the headquarters of the church of the god, with the most magnificent temple of the god and the most devout believers. The fall of this kind of city basically means the fall of the god behind it.
This place is classified as a forbidden area because, like the previous valley, it fell through the eighth level.
However, the former only wanted to survive but not to die, while the eighth level that fell here had long since fallen.
Moreover, there were nine people who went deep into it. In the end, they were seriously injured and did not dare to go in a second time.
However, for countless years, there are still eighth-level transcendental beings who have taken the risk and entered. According to statistics, there are more than ten eighth-level transcendental beings trapped inside. These eighth-level transcendental beings know that they will almost die, but they still go in because there is a mouthful of Soul Well in the ruins of this city.
Soul Well's well water can transform the soul of life from decay to rebirth.
You must know that unless the laws of the world limit the life of extraordinary beings, the lifespan limit of extraordinary beings mainly depends on the soul. Unlike the body that has super regeneration ability and can easily live forever, once the soul ages and decays, it is difficult to extend its life.
Therefore, those eighth-level souls who have exhausted their souls and reached the end of their lives will go to Soul Well to give it a try.
But without exception, they were all killed by the guards of Soul Well.
Although the only ninth-level transcendent who came out alive brought some well water, he did not say who the guards of Soul Well were. The ninth-level transcendent was already standing at the pinnacle of the god Abyss Giant Star, and those eighth-level transcendent could not force him to say what he did not want to say.
As for other ninth-level extraordinary beings, the well water is ineffective against ninth-level ones, so it is not worth the risk for them.
Because too many eighth-level people have died here, this place has become a well-known forbidden place.
Void Star Pearl appeared all around Li Mu, and at the same time Nirvana Flame burned on Hull Fusion's body.
The flames spread forward under his control, depriving the plants along the way of life and turning them into fuel.
The moment he stepped into the ruins of the city, Li Mu felt that he was being watched.
That was some kind of sight, just like when he used Abyss Eye to look at Nether King Cat and was noticed by Nether King Cat, this look at his presence also made him feel the presence, but like Nether King Cat, he couldn't tell the difference in sight.
But Li Mu feels that this kind of sight seems to be everywhere.
It seemed that around him, there were countless eyes focused on him at the same time.
Combined with the silence around it, it really gives people a creepy feeling.
The Blood Source Gourd floating next to Li Mu instantly spit out Blood Bewildering Mist. As Blood Bewildering Mist covered the entire ruins, the feeling of being stared at suddenly faded to nothing. The next moment, Blood Bewildering Mist was ignited by Nirvana Flame, turning the ruins of the city into a sea of flames.
The counterattack came instantly, and Li Mu's soul was suddenly hit by waves of mental impact like a tsunami.
Without the attribute superposition of Vivienne Mirror Spirit, his soul might collapse on the spot.
But now he is able to move with ease, resisting the mental impact and quickly moving towards Soul Well.
This well is in the square outside the ruins of the temple in the deepest part of the city. It is clean and there is no plant growing around it.
Li Mu accelerates instantly, and Nightmare Crown is activated the moment it approaches the wellhead.
With the attributes of Vivienne superimposed, he has been able to perfectly utilize the power of Nightmare Crown to protect his soul.
Sure enough, an even stronger mental impact followed, and Li Mu bore the mental impact and used Heart Sense Perception on Soul Well at close range.
Even if he came to Soul Well immediately, it would be difficult for an eighth-level extraordinary person to get close to him.
Because in addition to the mental attack that comes with mental shock, if it is powerful enough to a certain extent, it will also affect reality and cause energy damage.
Unless there are no weaknesses both mentally and physically, one aspect will always be defeated.
He was able to resist so easily, mainly relying on Nightmare Crown to resist mental damage, and Void Star Pearl to absorb all energy damage, so that he could easily come to Soul Well, but out of caution, he still chose Heart Sense Perception instead of entering the well.
Because those eighth-level extraordinary beings who fight to the death can rush into Soul Well regardless of the cost.
Therefore, the real danger must be faced when entering the well.
As Heart Sense Perception's exploration time ended, Li Mu already knew what was going on.
Soul Well is an auxiliary artifact, and the quality is that of Prismatic.
Strictly speaking, this is not a well but an insect nest. There is a strange insect named Soul-Parasitizing Insect living in the insect nest. This insect is small and terrifying and difficult to observe. When alive, it has the ability to release mental shock and mental parasitism.
After death, Soul-Parasitizing Insect's body will melt into Soul-Hosting Water in the well.
If a trace of soul is nurtured in Soul-Hosting Water, it is possible to give birth to Soul-Parasitizing Insect Mother with a trace of soul as the core.
This kind of Soul-Parasitizing Insect Mother is not meant to give birth to Soul-Parasitizing Insect, but it serves as a medium for the reincarnation of the soul.
Li Mu instantly felt shuddering. Could it be that the only ninth-level transcendent who escaped from Soul Well had been transformed into Soul-Parasitizing Insect Mother by a trace of the ancient remnant soul? If that was the case, Abyss Giant Star's water was deeper than he imagined.
If you can make such arrangements before death, the trace of soul is probably the trace of the soul of a certain god in the First Era.
This means that it is very likely that this god has been resurrected. Godforsaken Land is a place that is very likely to be the battlefield of the gods. God knows how many gods have been resurrected, and how many have been resurrected and are quietly dormant.
Li Mu Heart Sense Perception again, because the Heart Sense Perception involving the gods did not completely see through Soul Well.
Heart Sense Perception is not over yet, Li Mu has interrupted the instantaneous light quantization and moved backward in advance.
In the light quantum state, its ultimate speed in the vacuum of the universe can reach 24.5 light-years per second.
In Abyss Giant Star, there are various gases in the air, energy, and even resistance caused by the intensity of space. Although the quantization of light cannot reach 24.5 light-years per second, it is absolutely not a problem to move a few tenths of a light-year instantaneously.
However, even at this speed, it was impossible to avoid the Soul-Parasitizing Insect Mother that rushed out of Soul Well.
The existence of Soul Well was arranged back then, and the soul left behind was not one but three.
This means that a total of three Soul-Parasitizing Insect Mother can be bred, and there are three opportunities to seize the body and be reborn. The first time has failed, the second time has succeeded in seizing the body and is still alive, and the third time remains in Soul Well. In case the second Soul-Parasitizing Insect Mother also fails, the third Soul-Parasitizing Insect Mother is the last chance.
This time he took the initiative to send it to the door, and the third Soul-Parasitizing Insect Mother happened to attack him.
Li Mu felt a tingling sensation in his soul, as if he had been stabbed by a needle and constantly stirred.
I tried to use Nirvana Flame to burn it, but Nirvana Flame was unable to deal with Soul-Parasitizing Insect Mother, which was too small to be observed.
Light Origin Flame also joined in the fun, but Light Origin Flame didn't work either.
Seeing that Li Mu had to use Ninefold Nirvana for the first time, he held on to the last glimmer of hope and cast Heart Sense Perception on his own soul.
Because Soul-Parasitizing Insect Mother had begun to parasitize his soul, it was also covered by Heart Sense Perception.
Through high-dimensional perception, Li Mu successfully found the weakness of Soul-Parasitizing Insect Mother.
Before he had time to think about it, the Soul-Stinging Thorn fire inside Origin HuoZhong suddenly began to release Abyss Soul Poison towards his soul.
Abyss Soul Poison can strengthen and heal the soul, and the injuries to his soul will immediately recover a lot.
The same Soul-Parasitizing Insect Mother also passively absorbs Abyss Soul Poison. Even though Light Origin Flame is unmoved by the burning, in fact Soul-Parasitizing Insect Mother is also seriously injured. However, Soul-Parasitizing Insect Mother is too small, so the Light Origin Flame it endures per unit area is actually very weak.
This is like throwing a needle into the sun. No matter how powerful the sun is, it is difficult to concentrate all the heat on a needle.
It's not that Light Origin Flame isn't powerful, it's just that he can't control Light Origin Flame from being the size of the sun to the size of a pinhead.
Soul-Parasitizing Insect Mother absorbed Abyss Soul Poison and was immediately affected by Soul-Stinging Thorn.
Abyss Soul Poison, who was controlled by Soul-Stinging Thorn, made Soul-Parasitizing Insect Mother bear the fourfold damage of Soul-Stinging Thorn's deep penetration, mental paralysis, mental hallucination and mental crushing. Although Soul-Parasitizing Insect Mother's Mental Power was also very strong, the constant mental damage still affected Soul-Parasitizing Insect Mother.
Furthermore, the parasitism on Li Mu's soul also slowed down, and the damage suffered by Light Origin Flame continued to accumulate.
Finally Soul-Parasitizing Insect Mother couldn't bear it anymore. Although Soul-Parasitizing Insect Mother's parasitic ability is extremely terrifying, because it is too small, the total amount of Mental Power it masters is actually not much. It's just that Mental Power has to be compressed to have terrible parasitic ability.
This is like a fist-sized piece of bread compressed to the tip of a needle and able to penetrate a boulder.
But once the bread compressed into a needle point is continuously damaged, the Mental Power that maintains its compression will soon be unable to continue.
So Soul-Parasitizing Insect Mother wants to escape, but Li Mu has already entered Mirror Void.
Heart Sense Perception determined which part of his soul Soul-Parasitizing Insect Mother was parasitic on. Li Mu directly cut off this part of the soul, then wrapped it with Light Origin Flame and Abyss Soul Poison. On the spot, Mirror Void used the Mirror Spirit characteristics to transform Mirror Spirit.
