Chapter 1174 - 922: Since You’ve Come All This Way_2
I was terrified and asked, ’What about me? I’m still alive, can I leave this place unscathed?’
The other replied, ’No, your Divine Sense is very strong, temporarily not dead; but your body is already dead, in contrast, you are not truly alive but a living corpse.
Even if you could leave this world, your body would gradually rot, and then corrode the Divine Soul that cannot leave the body.
In the end, you would become a mindless walking corpse until your body turns to dust, and your Divine Soul would drift between heaven and earth, unable to enter reincarnation, becoming energy without consciousness.’
It paused the narrative and then asked, ’Little friend, have you ever experienced a hair’s breadth between life and death? Like me now, watching death approach with no power to reverse it; or as I was then, the body dead but the Divine Sense still alive, the road ahead blurred, not knowing where to end up.’
Jiang Yuan thought seriously for a moment, indeed he had.
Encountering the Soul-Devouring Demon Skill of the Evil Cultivator in the Central State Lin Family, how perilous it was!
If it weren’t for the system’s support at the critical moment, he would’ve died there already.
’Looking at your face, little friend, you indeed have experienced it.’ The old teacher smiled and sighed, ’Even as a practitioner, the fear when facing the threat of death, you surely understand.
Who would want to die if they can live?
Usually, one may not take life and death seriously, but when really stepping into the grave, the desire to survive becomes incredibly strong.
I racked my brains to find a way to survive; the only chance was to get involved with that mysterious person. Think about it, since it’s rare for someone like me to still ’live’ temporarily, maybe it could catch their eye, leading to another coincidence.’
In Q&A, I realized, it was the Creator God.
The Creator God said he originally thought that creating so many vibrant beings could live without worry, freely and happily in myriad worlds, living colorful lives.
But little did he know that whether it’s humans, demons, Demon Beasts, animals, or even plants, all struggle bitterly in the mundane world to live better and longer. Thus, endless desire and slaughter were bred, which went against his original intention.
Thus, the Creator God established a new world, specifically absorbing the remnants of broken worlds, to attempt to create a new undying and immortal life—a new species transcending and detached from reincarnation!’
At this point, the old teacher’s green eyes stared dead at Jiang Yuan, lowered his voice and uttered word by word: ’Being called ’mysterious’, we are the future rulers!’
A line that should have been full of atmosphere seemed unusually ridiculous because of the net hanging on him.
Jiang Yuan shrugged and laughed, ’Unfortunately, now is not the future you speak of, it’s impossible for you to see the mysterious ruling, you can only be slaughtered by me.’
Of course, before slaughtering you, I can give you a minute.
Pray properly to that Creator God, since you are so special, maybe he might still remember, sending a guide or something to fetch you.’
He made a gesture of invitation, arms folded across his chest standing aside.
There was still time to reach the next destination, while bored, he teased him for amusement.
The imminent death made the old teacher panic; it didn’t want to die just like that.
Having survived the collapse of heaven and earth and become the unique existence that has conversed with the divine, he felt a little like the chosen one, how could he just die like that?
’Creator God who created all living beings, I beg you to save your created child from this catastrophic disaster...’ he racked his brains to come up with a few prayer lines, kneeling in piety and prayer, sincerely hoping the god still remembers his most special self.
Although the strong Divine Sense cannot change the destiny of becoming mysterious, he thought since the god created the mysterious, hoping to expand and replace the old species, he should give some attention?
If he did hear and respond, he would be saved, it wouldn’t be a waste to say so much.
’The time is about up, it seems the so-called Creator God isn’t giving much assistance.’ Jiang Yuan stretched lazily, his right hand just picked up the Soul Hook preparing to slice it when suddenly a whirlwind sprang up two meters ahead in mid-air!
Smelling the aura of powerful energy, the old teacher was immediately overjoyed, ’The Creator God heard my prayer! He sent down a divine sign! Hahaha! Indeed, I’m not fated to die here!’
Jiang Yuan: !!!
Oh my gosh, are we serious?
Isn’t this world fragment already taken over by the system as a copy? How could it still air-drop a BOSS?
Is the entity too powerful to be on par with the system; or did the system allow it to enter to let me practice?
’Buzz~’
Can’t tell if it’s wind or some other sound, a grand and low hum buzzed and tingled the soles of their feet.
The whirlwind dissipated, a crack opened in mid-air.
From the extremely fine crack, little lights leaked out like stars falling, then something ’climbed’ out from it—at first glance, it resembled a red coral drawn on a flat surface.
Initially like a 2D papercut scene extending in, as more red threads crawled in, twisting and entangling, countless small and frayed hands sprouted from the thick vines, clawing, waving...
The old teacher burst into mad laughter, as if victory was in hand;
Jiang Yuan wasn’t frightened, wanting to strike first, but unfortunately couldn’t select a target.
’Tsk tsk, look at this situation, actually did get carried away with it.’ Despite saying so, his eyes were filled with excitement, surprises in the Cang Lake Mountain copy kept coming in waves!
If this thing is really sent by the Creator God from the black hole, even if it can’t be beaten, sealed in the copy, it’s quite a rare research interest.
With that thought, Jiang Yuan didn’t even want to kill the old teacher anymore.
If you can figure out what this thing is, after killing it, keeping the old teacher might be useful to call for new rescue later.
Just like Huluwa rescuing Grandpa, as long as the Creator God hasn’t given up on the old teacher, plenty of specimens can be studied for black hole products, and if fortunate to explore the black hole in the future, it’s good to know what kind of pathways there are.
’Hiss~’
After a whole minute, the monster composed of a massive clump of red blood vessels finally crawled in, hissing and falling to the ground.
The crack in mid-air disappeared, the surroundings returned to its previous dim and oppressive light.
[Mysterious Blood Demon: Summoned, an unformed experiment of the Outer Heaven Demon. Skilled in sucking the blood of living beings, with strong destructive power, easy to propagate, yet lacks pollution ability, unable to pollute other worlds, hence abandoned. Afraid of all purification methods, can use the Soul Hook to extract Mysterious Soul Fragments.]
The moment the monster plopped on the ground, the system’s details popped up, and at the same time, Jiang Yuan found this thing selectable.
Then what are you waiting for?
First, use the Memory Stone to take a photo for remembrance, then get to work!
’Hahaha, the Creator God hasn’t forgotten me! He sent the messenger of God, boy, you are doomed!’ The old teacher, despite being stuck within the net, bowed and worshiped fervently, a frenzied look at the hissing monster rushing over.
Jiang Yuan replied, nodding, ’Indeed, he hasn’t forgotten you, it seems this ’god’ is quite nostalgic.’
Saying so, he slowly snapped his fingers, Ice Flame flaring up, covering him, a blue flame figure appeared amidst the gloom and filth.
The blood-red mysterious Blood Demon that’s all over the place hadn’t yet pounced closer, was already deterred by the strong purification aura.
In its blood-red sight, kneeling to the right was a gray mysterious one, without a hint of red which indicated no fresh warm blood inside, unable to suck; in front, in the blue glow was a red humanoid, its body filled with surging blood attracted it, but the blue glow was too terrifying.
Realizing it couldn’t afford to provoke, the mysterious Blood Demon recoiled its extending blood vessels, almost balling up, rolling back a bit to widen the distance and emitting the same buzzing noise as before again.
’Messenger of God, kill him quickly!’ The old teacher was bewildered, having travelled afar without even launching an attack, yet it retreated?
’Buzz~’
’Buzz-buzz~’
The mysterious Blood Demon raised its head to the sky, waiting for the space crack to open so it could crawl back.
However, entry was easy but exit was tough, after hissing for a long while with no response, it panicked and began scrambling around.
’Oh, I see what’s going on.’ Jiang Yuan suddenly realized.
Evidently, the system allowed it in, and when it wanted to run, didn’t allow it out!
’That Outer Heaven Demon is quite amusing too, hearing the prayer and wanting to save the mysterious, yet not sending a formidable one, you realize you can’t beat me, and want to flee?’ he said with a playful smirk, reminding it, ’Since you’ve come all this way, why not stay? Or, pray to your master for help, let them send a few more formidable ones over?’
