Chapter 435 The back at the end of darkness
Chen Lun immediately opened the book in his hand eagerly.
But the next second, a prompt popped up on the panel——
[The reading conditions are not met! 】
[Missing "Yanita Language LV5 (Passive)", "Ancient Wizard Language LV2 (Passive)", "Mysterious Patternology LV3 (Passive)"! 】
Chen Lun was a little stunned.
He flipped through a few pages at random and found that the words recorded on them were all strange tadpole-shaped symbols, as well as some incomprehensible geometric figures, which seemed to correspond to some mysterious symbols.
After a few seconds of silence, Chen Lun had to close the book and sighed secretly.
‘Sure enough, nothing is easy on the road to sanctification...’
He kept this precious mythology book in a safe place and began to think about it.
‘I remember that there are books on these language and occult skills in the exchange library of the Imperial Tribunal. When the time comes, I can exchange them for them if I have enough merit! ’
Chen Lun knew that this matter could not be blamed on Philip. It was not that the other party deliberately made things difficult for him, but that most mythological knowledge was like this and required a very high reading threshold, otherwise it would be impossible to understand.
Immediately afterwards, he left the abandoned white tower, briefly divined the time, and found that there was only half an hour left before Ms. Sigh returned.
'Time is running out, I still need to go to the end of darkness to confirm the source and truth of the turmoil in the spiritual world...'
Chen Lun flew over the small town of Kazite and headed towards the hazy plain to the west at full speed.
According to Philip, the special area connecting the dream world and the spiritual world is somewhere deep in the Haze Plain.
When he entered the Haze Plain, the environment here was exactly the same as that of Fairyland. The surroundings were filled with gray fog and the visibility was quite low.
But the warnings from spiritual intuition are far stronger than those in the fairyland.
It seems that something extremely terrifying is hidden behind the thick fog.
Chen Lun held his silver cane and used it to calibrate the direction while moving forward cautiously. While maintaining speed, he was always alert to changes in his surroundings.
Woo! !
Not long after, Chen Lun noticed that the fog in front of him on the left began to roll violently, and three long, narrow and huge blue-black wolf heads poked out from the mid-air behind the fog.
Nine pairs of dark eyes turned suddenly and locked onto Chen Lun's figure instantly.
'Oops...'
Chen Lun secretly shouted in his heart.
Even spiritual intuition failed to catch the trace of the other party, as if the monster appeared out of thin air. The strong sense of danger made the hairs all over his body stand up reflexively.
He immediately used Peeping to test his life, but the result surprised Chen Lun.
This monster only revealed very little information!
This means that the opponent's level is much higher than him!
‘The real Moonless Shadow…a semi-mythical pollution creature! ’
Chen Lun didn't even think about it. He used teleportation to move past the three-headed monster and flew forward.
However, the monster's reaction was also quite fast. Its entire body was immediately divided into three, turning into three dark shadows. It pursued Chen Lun, and soon stopped in front of him and reorganized.
roar! !
The three huge wolf heads opened their mouths and dived towards Chen Lun!
The dark eyes that flashed vaguely were full of hatred and ferocity, as well as a strong desire to kill... The densely packed fangs in the wolf's mouth were jagged, but they revealed a ferocious look.
Chen Lun did not hesitate and directly entered the "Pale Knight" form.
boom! !
The silver giant sword blocked the bites of the three wolf heads. Chen Lun raised his right arm high and transformed into a group of pale snakes wrapping around the opponent's neck and body.
However, even so, Chen Lun still felt the violent power coming from the sword, and he couldn't help but take two steps back.
Chen Lun narrowed his eyes, and with an expressionless expression, he suddenly exerted force and pushed the monster away.
Immediately, he swung the giant sword with all his strength to slash.
Bang bang bang!
The gray mist agitated, rolling and spreading in all directions, and two huge figures, one black and one white, flashed and fought fiercely.
In just a few dozen seconds, Chen Lun had slashed out countless swords, but the monster in front of him was not injured at all... The opponent's strength and speed were even higher than his own, and his use of shadows reached a level of To the extreme.
Not only did the slashes fail to hit the mark, but they were also caught in shadows. Several times, Chen Lun was almost penetrated into the gaps in his armor by the all-pervasive shadows.
'The strength of this monster far exceeds the level of ordinary extraordinary beings, and touches the myth... In comparison, ordinary saint incarnations may be defeated by it head-on. ’
Chen Lun used his giant sword and pale hands to deal with it while calculating the strength of both the enemy and ourselves.
‘If I don’t hesitate to use all kinds of trump cards, I can probably kill it, but it will be difficult to do it in a short time... However, Ms. Sigh is coming back soon, and I can’t be dragged here. ’
He immediately teleported and distanced himself from the monster.
The next second, three huge shadows chased after them like tarsal maggots. Chen Lun glanced at them indifferently, and then with a flash of his fingers, a bright red trump card suddenly appeared.
He waved his hand.
call out!
A loud rumbling sound erupted behind him, and countless gray mist, accompanied by the three shadows, all stirred together like liquid in a coffee cup, and were immediately blown away by the unstoppable repulsive force.
Chen Lun took the opportunity to teleport again, and in a few blinks, he completely got rid of the monster's entanglement.
After a while.
He came to a dark pool.
This place is located in the northeast corner of the Haze Plain. The fog has dissipated. If you go further, you will reach the deepest part... which is where the white cocoon of Corpse Mountain is located.
Chen Lun did not dare to go there rashly. Just observing from a distance in the fairyland caused his sanity to drop by thousands of points. The power of the "original version" of the dream world would only be stronger... Perhaps, with just one look, he would be able to Killed suddenly on the spot.
‘This pool is the special area that Philip said, from where you can reach the end of darkness...’
Chen Lun took a deep breath, jumped up, and dove in like a bird entering the forest.
thump!
The black water in the pool was quite viscous and heavy. When Chen Lun fell into it, there was not much splash. After a few dull gurgling sounds, the pool returned to dead silence.
Chen Lun only felt that his body was imprisoned by the strong water pressure when he was underwater. If [Spiritual Breath] had not been turned on all the time, perhaps the extremely dense black water would have poured into his body.
Everything in the dream world is full of absurdity.
Black water has no buoyancy at all. Chen Lun is like a stone falling into a deep valley, sinking straight to the bottom of the pool.
Darkness follows you like a shadow, and darkness is everywhere.
The coldness became more and more intense. It was not known how long it had been before Chen Lun's consciousness suddenly retracted, and he was shocked to find that he was lying on the ground.
Before he could sit up, he heard a huge bell ringing from a distant place.
when! !
He quickly stood up and looked in the direction of the sound.
when! !
Another burst of bells rang, resounding throughout the world.
Accompanied by it, there was a strong white light that spread across the sky, blooming at the same time as the bell.
The white light slowly faded, and the surroundings returned to deep darkness.
‘Is this the end of the seventh level of the dark world? ’
Chen Lun stood in the darkness and thought to himself.
‘What were the bells and white light just now...’
when! !
The bright light struck again along with the deafening ringing of the bell, and Chen Lun's face was turned pale. Because the light was too strong, he couldn't even take the opportunity to clearly see his surroundings.
With a solemn expression on his face, he decided to look in the direction of the bell and the white light.
When...
When...
As he got closer to the source of the sound, Chen Lun began to notice something strange.
Under the huge bells, there seemed to be countless roars hidden.
Finally, he climbed over a hill and saw the scene behind him clearly.
Chen Lun stood on the top of the mountain, his pupils shrinking sharply.
He saw a wooden house underneath, a bonfire, and a figure standing in the darkness.
The back was thin and dry, like a corpse that had been dead for a long time. The skin was covered with scars, and there was not even a single intact spot.
On the shoulder blades on his back, there are iron swords growing one after another, layered on top of each other, forming a pair of huge steel wings. In both hands, he also held a large and blazing golden beheading sword. The luster flowing on it was like lava and like sun spots.
The sword suddenly struck out.
when! !
Dazzling white light spread across the field of vision, illuminating the front at the same time.
In the darkness, there are dense numbers of ferocious figures moving around...
Those are countless Didak bug-men!
They are all kinds of strange things, and there are even some giant insect-men that are tens or hundreds of meters high, roaring and charging towards us ferociously! But thousands of insect-men were all burned into nothingness under this sword and returned to darkness.
when! !
Another sword struck, ringing the bell at the end of darkness, cutting off the endless stream of polluting insects.
Chen Lun witnessed this shocking scene and was speechless.
A long while.
‘That’s Arnold? ! ’
He looked at the back, but he already knew the answer in his heart.
The last words he said to himself in the "End of Darkness" recreated in Wonderland are still fresh in his memory - hunt the darkness forever.
At this moment, Chen Lun finally understood this sentence.
At the same time, his memory suddenly went back to the opening CG of version 1.0, where the fleeting back figure overlapped with the man in front of him.
'He has always been here, fighting against countless waves of polluting insects...'
Chen Lun's expression was covered by darkness, but his eyes reflected the golden luster of Arnold's beheading sword.
His eyes continued to move forward.
Under the brief golden light, Chen Lun vaguely saw a huge "star" floating in the sky at the end of the darkness. Its surface was dark and deep, but underneath it hid an extremely bright red color, like a dying sun.
‘This is exactly the same as the Red Mother in Matthew’s Land…but the one in front of me is obviously bigger, and the pressure is countless times stronger! ’
Chen Lun's eyes felt stinging unconsciously, and he shed tears.
His sanity was decreasing rapidly, and pollution was pouring in along with knowledge, roughly squeezing into his mind.
[Sequence Nine - Spiritual Medium], [Sequence Eight - Executioner], [Sequence Seven - Requiem Master], [Sequence Six - Night Watcher], [Sequence Five - Black Knight]...
And [Sequence Four-Undead]!
The entire path was exactly the same as the moon before the high sequence. It was not until the original [Sequence 4 - Ferryman] that it changed.
Chen Lun learned the real name of this path directly through the information in his mind——
Black sun!
Black Sun Path!
The true god at the end is called "Shen Mother", "Dark Sun" or "Shadow of the Sun"!
"Lord of the Deep...Lord of Spiritual Sanctuary...The Darkness of the Sublime...Galsworthy...Sad and lamentable, I will always remember your glory, but only one sun is needed."
An indifferent voice sounded faintly in Chen Lun's mind.
Chen Lun suddenly had ringing in his ears and bleeding from his seven orifices.
He fell to his knees with a plop, struggled to take out the tranquilizing elixir and poured it into his mouth. At the same time, he lit the handmade cigarette given by Ms. Frederic and started smoking fiercely.
The ringing of bells continues.
Chen Lun endured the severe pain, raised his eyes and looked below the "Real Red Mother".
On the surface of the red and black star, deep liquid dripped continuously. Just one drop splashed into a meteorite crater on the earth at the end of the darkness. It was filled with thick black liquid and countless bubbles emerged on the surface.
As the bubble burst, Didak bug-men struggled to crawl out one after another. They followed their instincts and fled outward, spreading, eager for killing and chaos.
However, Arnold's back stood under the black and red sun, blocking the tide of polluting insects on the front line.
But even so, Chen Lun still discovered that one percent of the insect tide escaped Arnold's interception... because Arnold seemed to have completely lost his humanity and reason, leaving only a body executing his last will in life. .
'He has tried his best...The spread of pollution is unstoppable and will eventually cause turmoil in the entire world...'
Chen Lun unconsciously had such an idea.
At the same time, this scene was deeply imprinted in my mind.
Then, he turned around and ran away without looking back. When he came back, he lay down in the special place and forced himself to sleep.
[Feide Cui Meditation Method] Turning with all his strength, Chen Lun quickly let his consciousness enter the dream world, thereby communicating with the dream world, and his body sank into darkness.
Wow!
A moment later, Chen Lun's figure jumped out of the black pool in the hazy plain of the dream world.
He used [Walking in the Air] with all his strength and flew in the direction he came from.
There are less than ten minutes left before Ms. Sigh returns to the door of sleep. He must leave the dream world and return to the real world before this time.
Otherwise, he will end up like Philip, trapped here forever!
Crossing the small town of Kazite again and returning to the dense forest on one side of the cobblestone path, Chen Lun found Nata and a dozen other black cat warriors, as well as Mr. Taote.
"Have you packed up? I will take you out of here now."
Chen Lun said to them in a deep voice.
"We are ready, Lord Beloved."
Nada dragged the giant ax and responded solemnly.
Chen Lun glanced at them, hummed, and then said, "Follow me."
He led the way, and his figure quickly shuttled through the natural forest. Because the speed was too fast, Mr. Taut's old arms and legs could not keep up, so two black cat warriors carried him on their way.
Even so, Taote kept screaming and wailing, and his heart was somewhat unbearable.
Chen Lun took the time to travel through the natural forest and found a broken staircase leading upward. The moment he stepped on it, he found that the surrounding scene changed and turned into a long, dark and cold staircase tunnel.
The Black Cat Team and Taote soon appeared here, and they all looked surprised.
Chen Lun's expression suddenly changed.
At this moment, my spiritual intuition suddenly gave me a strong warning.
He subconsciously thought that Ms. Sigh might be back soon!
"Let's go!"
Chen Lun shouted loudly, and his whole body shot upward like an arrow.
Nada was stunned for a moment, then quickly called his companions, and together they ran up the steps with the Lord Beloved as fast as possible.
After crossing the gate of sleep.
After running up another 70 steps, Chen Lun returned to his dreamland.
He looked back unexpectedly, only to see a lady whose face he couldn't see clearly, standing behind him!
A dark green long skirt came into view. The exquisite patterns and patterns on the skirt left a deep impression on the retina.
A resentful sigh came out, which made Chen Lun's heart sink to the bottom.
He was as cold as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and said something bad in his heart.
But at this critical moment, Chen Lun suddenly caught a glimpse of another female figure in his peripheral vision.
"Let him go, Dominia."
A cool and pleasant female voice sounded.
The dark red skirt flashed past Chen Lun's sight, and the figure of the sighing lady disappeared. (End of chapter)
