Bulwark of Light

Chapter 575 Crashing Into the Darkness
a year ago.

The apostles of Dionysus and Sky God appeared in Dadu, unstoppable.

At that time, the entire East Continent desperately needed an [Apostle] to appear...to prove that Mr. Gu Changzhi was not dead.

If it wasn't for the last moment, when Gu Nanfeng arrived at the battlefield in the metropolitan area in time with the token of the God of Light, the outcome of the battle of the apostles is still unknown. Usher in a new situation.

But think about it afterwards.

The token of the throne that "saved Da Du's life" came really unreasonably.

How Gu Nanfeng got there is still a mystery so far, even if he has a good friendship like Luo Yu, he still doesn't know how he did it.

But now.

Bits and pieces of information come together.

In Gu Shen's mind, an answer vaguely emerged——

Gu Nanfeng left the Beizhou military as "CN021" and went to Xizhou Guangming City. To obtain the Guangming token, there are three key assistances.

First, he is the young Patriarch of the Gu family, and Mr. Gu Changzhi was once the most beloved disciple of the God of Light.

Second, he had a close relationship with Meng Xizhou. At that time, the "repentant marriage" had not been exposed. After Gu Nanfeng returned to Dongzhou, he kept silent about his trip to Xizhou, presumably because he didn't want to cause trouble for that Goddess Meng. .But it is obvious that Meng Xizhou must be able to enter the city of light, see the god seat, and get the token.

The third and most important point.

The [Apostle] chosen by this token is in line with the wishes of the God of Light.

In other words.

Even if Gu Nanfeng didn't go to Xizhou in person, Song Ci was still the best choice for a token.

the reason is simple.

Song Ci is an extremely rare "undead" among the group of extraordinary people, one in a million.

When he combined with the light token for the first time, the power he erupted was already quite shocking, but the first time he touched it, he perfectly blended with the power of the light... It is not so much the power of the light seat as it is his. The pedigree is too good.

Every god seat, every fire seed has its own characteristics.

Although the seat of God can give divine power at will.

But... if you can find a transcendent who best suits your kindling, you can also get the greatest "use" of the divine power bestowed on you!
Song Ci, the undead is the "Heavenly Chosen One" that Guangming City has been looking for!
So... after guessing that.

Meng Xiao's real trump card has already surfaced.

"God of Light, seems to like 'undead' very much..."

Gu Shen looked at the blazing Grand Duke Zhenyue in front of him, and said softly, "Yes, who would not like such an excellent 'Heavenly Chosen Bloodline'? As long as there is a trace of vitality left in the body, it can continue to burn, stimulate the potential again, and renew the bloodline." stand up."

The undead, chosen by the heavens, can burn blazingly if they receive the gift of light, just like a great sun.

Meng Xiao narrowed his eyes.

He didn't deny it, nor did he admit it... He just stretched out a palm, and gently covered the blood hole in his chest. The blazing light burned the flesh and blood, making a chi-chi sound. A piece of flesh and blood has been roasted.

But for him.

My heart felt warm.

This deadly high temperature actually saved his life... The chest pierced by the iron arrow, under the warmth of the light, slowly stopped the bleeding, and the pain did not go away. This is the biggest weakness of [Undead]. All injuries are real, and all pain cannot be avoided.

Every time I stand up, it means... to bear great pain.

In the world of extraordinary people, there is a scale of absolute fairness.

As an [undead], one must shoulder greater responsibilities, and must also pay a greater price.

And at this moment.

These pains are nothing.

Meng Xiao said with a smile, "That's very good... But at this moment, what's the use of you talking about it?"

Only the power of two arrows.

Two arrows... have been used up.

Now Gu Shen's hands are trembling badly, even if he is given another hour, he probably won't be able to recover... The "maintenance" of that dragonscale bow seems to require a lot of energy as a price.

Meng Xiao could see it.

Today's Gu Shen is completely "running out of fuel", because he can't even maintain the basic shape of the big dragon scale bow... A piece of dragon scale is swept by the undercurrent of the Styx River. Then, it spread out, and this extremely intimidating divine bow just disappeared, turning into wisps of silver light, and glancing back into the cuffs of Shen's black robe.

"It's really useless."

Gu Shen also smiled, he showed his cards and said, "Think about it carefully, you are really hard to kill..."

Blessing of light, moon-suppressing magic robe, fourth-level deep water area, absolute defensive ability [Obscure Moon], plus... the blood of the undead.

Since the beginning of extraordinary practice.

Gu Shen has never faced such a powerful opponent directly. In his several encounters with "Xiao", although the latter has a high level of state, he only used the technique of clone to mediate with himself... But this time, there was no conspiracy at all, nothing negotiation.

Let alone an hour, Meng Xiao would not even keep a minute or a second for himself.

Although currently in a confrontation.

But from the moment the iron arrow pierced through the chest and the [Undead] was still alive, the winner was already decided.

The arrow just now drained all of Gu Shen's strength, but fortunately, it also caused serious damage to Meng Xiao... He can't move at the moment, he has to wait for the wound on his chest to heal before he can do anything.

When Gu Shen was most desperate, the voice of an audience member sounded just right in his mind.

"deal?"

The voice is magnetic and playful.

The simple three words are the devil's mockery of fate... Some people have worked very hard, but fate is destined to be like this.

Gu Shen was silent for a while, he raised his head and looked at the dark Styx.

At this moment, he was standing at the bottom of the river, stepping on the dry rocks, and suddenly found that the Styx River... was so fucking black, it couldn't be seen at a glance, like the devil in the ruler.

deal?
This voice has never been so alluring...

Just nod yourself, or say a nice word.

The guy in the ruler should be ready to stand up from the throne. Gu Shen doesn't know what will happen next... But he guessed that there is a high probability that the devil will take over his body, and then cleanly take over the unworthy man. The bright and blessed son of the first life was dismantled into eight pieces.

What hazy moon, what fourth level, what undead bloodline?
All crushed, smashed to ashes!

The bottom of the Styx River is a good place to kill, dismember, bury and bury one's soul.

If Meng Xiao was wiped out in this place, even if the God of Light came to the Duolu River in person in the future, he might not even find a hair.

just.

In my mind, there was another voice, telling myself.

【"Don't trade."】

He was not reconciled.

Because after killing Meng Xiao, the one who bears the price is himself... Gu Shen is not afraid of Guangming City's investigation, but he is afraid that he will follow the old path of Pluto and join forces with the devil in the ruler.

The number of times of falling into the abyss is only zero times, and countless times.

Just when he was struggling between a desperate situation and another desperate situation, when he was entangled in pain.

The devil sent out the invitation a second time: "Deal?"

Only this time, its voice was not as calm as before.

Gu Shen keenly caught the mental fluctuations in this voice.

He was slightly startled.

How is this going?

Could it be...has something changed?

At the same moment, the cross pendant in Gu Shen's hand conveyed a vibrating thought with a clear direction, and the faint spiritual light guided him to a certain direction he had gone before...

That is the gathering place of Pluto's mental toxins!

Because of Meng Xiao's pursuit, Gu Shen changed his route, and there is still a distance from the original "terminus" at this moment... But he is very clear that the guidance issued by the cross pendant means that that place is in a desperate situation The only way to resolve the crisis.

Before Gu Shen could think about it.

"Rumble rumble—"

A deep and frightening roar erupted from the bottom of the entire Styx River.

At this moment, the bottom of the river, which was dead silent and calm before, erupted with a terrifying tide of fury.

The dark current surged and intertwined instantly.

This scene caught both Gu Shen and Meng Xiao by surprise.

The two Chosen Ones, who hold the "Divination Artifact" and can predict part of the future in advance, are caught in a brief moment of shock and surprise... But Gu Shen reacted faster, almost like the undercurrent of the Styx. In an instant, he rushed towards the direction pointed by the pendant!
At this moment, he didn't care whether the "spiritual toxin" was exposed or not.

In desperation, if he doesn't want to make a deal with the devil, he must hold on to the last straw.

The river ran away in an instant.

Numerous undercurrents hit the riverbed, and the dry rocks shattered into sharp stone chips, splashing in the undercurrent.

Gu Shen, who was exhausted, increased his speed to the extreme, and couldn't care about these anymore. Four or five bloody wounds were drawn on his cheeks in an instant... It's just that the healing ability of "Underworld Fire" is extremely strong, and these small wounds healed in an instant. The deadliest "river poison" is immediately dissolved by the pure land at the moment it invades the blood.

Meng Xiao's expression was ugly, his reaction speed was a little slow, but he also left immediately.

Because of this sudden change.

This made the battle that I had already won, causing trouble...

At this moment, I couldn't allow myself to take a breather.

Gu Shen tried his best to escape, and he also tried his best to chase after him.

It's just that Meng Xiao didn't have the blessing of "Underworld Fire". He was seriously injured and had to beware of "River Poison". As a result, his speed couldn't reach the limit for a while, and he could barely keep up with Gu Shen.

In the darkness, the two figures just chased after each other, maintaining the most extreme distance that the naked eye could see directly.

……

……

Gu Shen's physical strength has almost reached its limit.

What kept him from falling at this moment was just the tenacious will in his mind.

In the space of the ruler, the devil sitting on the throne, seeing the deal he was about to make, wasted in an instant, and finally lost his temper.

It is far from being as calm and calm as before, cursing in a low voice, venting its anger: "Crazy! Crazy! Are you really a lunatic? A deal with me will kill you?!"

It really doesn't understand.

Why did Gu Shen not choose to make a deal with himself when the fuel was exhausted?

Could it be that trading with oneself is more terrifying than death?
"..."

Gu Shen didn't have the energy to talk to the devil.

At this moment, he squinted his eyes, staring at the "spiritual light" in the river.

Previous transactions remain in effect.

The devil must always provide him with a location where he can remove the poison from the bottom of the river... At this moment, this deal saved Gu Shen's life, because his mental and physical strength were almost exhausted, and he had only his last breath left.

Perhaps it is because the body is close to the limit.

Even the thought fluctuations transmitted by the pendant became very blurred after being introduced into the spiritual sea.

Gu Shen could only rely on his eyes to stare at the guiding light spot given by the devil.

That is my final "destination".

It is impossible for this boundless river to riot for no reason.

Gu Shen could only pray silently in his heart. The riot in this river was due to some unknown reasons, which caused a certain [door] to suddenly appear at the bottom of the Styx River...

In the world of supernatural beings, prayer works.

Because God Throne will hear.

But in Gu Shen's world, praying is not so useful, because he himself is the "God Throne".

But sometimes, destiny is wonderful and there are traces to follow.

Here is the Styx.

If Gu Shen hopes that there is a [door] here...then there is a high probability that there will be one here.

Because he is Pluto.

Going forward with these angry currents, Gu Shen suddenly felt a huge suction force, and he finally saw the location of the light spot.

A pitch-black, broken [door] stands at the bottom of the Styx River, like a black hole, which is endlessly swallowing the countless black river water.

Meng Xiao, who was chasing from behind, suddenly became gloomy.

Why did the [door] suddenly appear in this ghostly place? !

Gu Shen's luck is also a little bit better!
An ominous feeling loomed in Meng Xiao's heart.

The closer to this door [door], the more turbulent the tumbling and broken black river.

It seems to be roaring, roaring, demonstrating and warning against the "creatures" diving into this river.

But in Gu Shen's feeling, the closer it is to the light, the gentler the water flow will be.

Is this welcoming you home?
The devil's voice sounded again, he restrained his anger, and said very seriously: "Gu Shen... Believe me, don't go in, behind the [door] is disaster."

"..." Gu Shen remained unmoved.

The devil warned in a low voice: "I can swear, what I just said is true, you have already run out of gas, why bother to enter the [door], the things behind the [door] may be more terrifying than Meng Xiao, A much more terrifying existence... Believe me, now is the best opportunity for you and me to make a deal. As long as you nod your head and give up your body, within 10 minutes, I will kill this Blessed Son for you."

This statement came out.

Gu Shen was completely silent.

However, his speed towards the [door] has not slowed down at all, because his spirit has reached the limit, and his physical body has no more strength... It's just that the wisp of will in his heart remains unshakable.

[Door] Danger behind?
Of course he was afraid, it was an unknown world.

It's just... the more the devil emphasized, the safer he felt.

The black shadow on the throne has an uncertain expression.

It is anxiously awaiting a reply.

At this moment, Gu Shen actually refused to enter the space of rulers, even delaying the time and not giving him a chance to mediate.

Seeing, that [door] is getting closer and closer.

Gu Shen didn't hesitate at all.

He crashed directly into the unknown darkness.

And what was left to the devil was still only those cold words.

"Sorry, I refuse to trade."
