Chapter 36 The terrifying sacrifice of the beginning
They are temporarily separated.
Ichigo and the others took a long but unobstructed road to Central Park, which took about two days.
Stark, on the other hand, chose to go to Central Park via a shorter but obstructed road. Even with Ichigo's strength, it might take four or five days, and Stark...
How long will it take?
In order not to waste time, Stark directly used the ring to leave here and rushed towards the direction calling him.
He had already noted the way to Central Park, all that was left to do was to find the thing.
The first moment he came to the Demon Realm, Stark felt something calling him, and as time went by, the call became stronger and stronger, and it even seemed like a voice appeared in the bottom of his heart.
Come on, come on, come on!
Come and see me!
Even now, Stark has a hard time resisting that instinct. He knows that he must go, because if he doesn't see that thing, he may not even be able to fight, which will undoubtedly affect the subsequent decisive battle.
Whether it's fighting Kahn or fighting Held, it's definitely not an easy battle...
Although they say that Held is a weak apostle, no one really thinks that Held is that weak.
Just kidding, she has single-handedly controlled the situation until now, promoted the Genesis prophecy step by step, the original apostle, the remnant of Terra, and the only person who was close to Kahn and survived with him. How could anyone think that she is weak?
At most, she only shows that she is not strong, but who can know her true strength?
Over the years, who else has seen Held take action with all his strength?
The so-called weakness has always been the impression Held gave others!
Ichigo never believes that Held is a weak person, and Stark does not believe that Held is a weak person, because he has seen people like Held, and they are all strong without exception.
Aizen Sosuke, Genichi, Giger, to some extent they are all similar to Held, and all of them faced enemies that were almost impossible to win at that time!
Held's weakness is at most relative to Kahn.
There is no doubt about Kahn's strength. They have never met Kahn, but all the information they got and all the strong people they met thought that Kahn's strength was rare in the world, and no one looked down upon him.
Go through Kahn.
He is so powerful that he forms a huge gravitational force on himself, attracting the same essence from other dimensions to him, causing the power of the darkness of the beginning that should return to the parallel body to slowly gather towards him.
If it comes to the end, he might be able to accommodate all the power of darkness in the beginning...
god!
No matter who they are, they are weak compared to Kahn, and Held is no exception.
But compared to others, will Held still be weak?
This is not necessarily the case...
So even though it was possible for them to break the prophecy by fighting Held, they still did not relax their vigilance.
Stark did not allow himself to have any accidents in the battle at that time, so he had to clear up all hidden dangers.
and……
He also wanted to see what was calling him.
He has never been to the demon world, how could something be targeting him?
Stark moved forward in confusion, and then he came to a road.
This road is a bit eerie. If you look ahead, you can see a winding road with no end in sight.
Stark's strength is top-notch in the demon world. After all, he has broken through the limit in the battle with Luke. In the demon world, his strength is enough to be called an apostle.
However, even now, when he saw this road, he felt a certain uneasiness.
"No wonder Schaller said that there are many places in the demon world where even apostles cannot stay for a long time, and even Ichigo would be in trouble."
Stark stepped into this road and couldn't help but sigh.
"I wonder...what will be ahead?"
This ancient road seemed to have been abandoned millions of years ago. Only some people who could not survive in the outside world entered it, and those who walked in never appeared in the outside world again.
The entrance to this road is within the influence of the Ka Xiu Sect, but Schaller doesn't know what's inside. He once sent people into it, and they also have the means Schaller used to ensure that he can see inside.
But when they entered the depths of the ancient road, they disappeared.
This is a strange place in the demon world where the fragments of Terra spontaneously formed. It was most likely formed by the residual power generated when the Light of the Beginning fought against the God of Terra.
The battle at their level, even if many years have passed, is enough to give the apostles a headache.
However, Stark had no other choice.
He stepped into the road without much hesitation and kept walking forward.
Along the way, I saw only bones and the remains of some oversized creatures. It was like stepping into the path of the dead.
"..."
Stark felt the colder and colder growing, and he couldn't help but speed up.
After walking for a while, Stark was about to take the next step when he suddenly noticed an extremely huge energy approaching him.
"?"
Stark's head turned slightly, and the next moment he saw a beam of light grazing his cheek.
His pupils dilated for a moment, and he quickly turned forward using the sound, but he didn't see anything.
Theoretically, that should be where the light emitted just now, but there was nothing there. This is very unreasonable.
Looking at the desolate world around him, Stark felt confused.
In fact, he was not wondering who was attacking him, but he was wondering about the flash of light just now.
That……
It’s clearly a false flash!
But how is it possible?
How could anyone use virtual flash in the demon world?
This is not Hueco Mundo!
Moreover, the spiritual power contained in the false flash just now was extremely powerful, and it might not be inferior to my current false flash. This is also very incredible.
Now Stark has reached the level of a world-devouring Hollow in the true sense. Even in the Three Realms, it is an unprecedented Hollow. Even the world a million years ago has never given birth to such a Hollow, because of this
is their final form.
The Hollow millions of years ago was eliminated by the Spirit King while he was evolving into his current form, but Stark has surpassed them after returning to his ancestors and has truly reached the level he is today.
However, he just saw a virtual flash that was completely comparable to his own. This was...
what happened?
Stark frowned, and he seemed to vaguely understand why he was attracted to this place.
here……
Possessing some kind of virtual power?
"who?"
Stark suddenly seemed to see a woman, but the next moment the woman disappeared.
What a fast speed!
Stark thought that his speed was definitely the fastest among his peers, but that woman's speed was much faster than him.
He chased after him in an instant. He was considered an expert and bold. He respected this ancient road, but he also believed that nothing would happen to him with his own strength.
And no matter how dangerous it is, you still have to go, and you can never shrink back.
After walking for an unknown distance, Stark saw a dilapidated village.
Purple mist floated in the village, as thick as poisonous gas, and Stark endured the discomfort and walked in.
There is no one in the village, just like the road before.
But if there is something false in it, no one can understand it.
Void are lives that greedily devour each other. As they continue to devour each other, only one survivor will be left in the end.
That is...
That woman?
Stark thought of the woman just now. She had long golden hair and was wearing a white dress. She looked like a noble girl. Although it was just a glimpse, she left a deep impression on Stark.
Stark wandered around the village and finally found a book, or a diary, in a warehouse.
This diary is actually a fragment, with only a small amount of content left, but it can still be vaguely revealed that the author is a person named Claude Lind.
The Lord of the Dead, Clawlinde...
It should be preceded by...title?
Lord of the dead? It sounds like it has something to do with the Hollow. After all, the Hollow is actually a kind of dead soul.
He opened the pages of the book, looked at the text inside, and slowly interpreted it.
"Those who want to learn necromancy, I admire your bravery and despise your ignorance.
I don't know what you are carrying, but the path you have chosen is definitely a dead end.
This is as ridiculous as breaking the pillars to repair the roof. As long as you have a shred of sense, give up immediately.
And those who greedily explore necromancy, congratulations, you will have a tragic ending.
What a sad, pitiful person!
Never awaken a soul beyond your own power!
Necromancy is a spell that summons the energy left in the world and uses the power of the caster to materialize the energy. It is not a forbidden spell that calls the dead back to this world.
Some foolish people put the appearance of evil spirits into the category of necromancy, but how can they control a powerful soul that retains the will of life?
Don't break taboos because of your stupidity.
If you don’t want to be enslaved, let yourself be tortured to the point of excruciating pain, and become inhuman...
If you don't want to be grabbed tighter and tighter by the claws of death just because you want to escape death, it's best to give up that ridiculous greed.
If any lucky guy shows up, come see me. I'd like to see what the person who ignores my sincere advice looks like.
Of course, the premise is that I can maintain my sanity until then."
There are some interesting things recorded on it, especially necromancy...
Is this a note left by a master who has reached a very high level in necromancy? Or is it a fragment of a certain work?
In short, there is a kind of power called necromancy mentioned above. It can be seen that this is actually a way of practice that extracts certain energy from the world and turns it into a spell. It should be similar to the practice of spirit son.
However, someone put this necromantic technique on the body of the deceased, summoned the evil spirit with its own will, and possessed it to gain powerful power.
This Claurinde is warning the necromancers behind that there are huge risks in doing so. If you don't want to have your soul devoured by evil spirits, don't do this.
However, judging from the last sentence, Claudin has actually chosen this path.
Stark turned the scroll to the end and found a complex dark magic badge.
Gently putting the book away, he thought of the woman just now again.
That woman...
Could it be Claude Lind?
This Undead Soul Lord is indeed very similar to Xu, except that Xu is swallowed directly, while the Undead Soul Lord possesses evil spirits in his body. They are essentially fallen souls superimposed together. So it seems that there is a virtual flash here.
Not surprisingly?
But Stark thinks it may not be that simple.
He walked out of the warehouse and looked at the declining village. He didn't know how long it had been since there was no one there.
There should have been people on this ancient road for a long time, and there was even such a village, but I don’t know why it is empty now.
Stark could only keep walking forward, because the thing that attracted him was still further ahead.
He had a vague feeling that this was actually the place where he could be reborn...
The further we walked, the thicker the fog became. The fog in the village was still purple, but now it has turned into black.
It seems to be the color of death, and one look at it makes people shudder. What a terrifying aura it is, it is simply eroding everything, and a strange sound is released in the black mist, like thousands of children whispering under their breath.
Ming.
Stark was walking among them, and he could only say that he was fortunate to have received the power of light given by Luke at the last moment and it worked.
Hebron's Holy Light Honor blessed Stark, and at the same time, the power of white hole creation spontaneously circulated in his body, allowing Stark to gain powerful light power and block the black mist from his body.
Suddenly, Stark stopped.
He raised his hands, and the next moment two pistols, a black and a white, appeared in his hands.
He named his two pistols ebony and white ivory. The ebony symbolizes the annihilation of the black hole, and the white ivory symbolizes the creation of the white hole. They are also Stark's two main powers now.
He pointed the ebony wood at the black mist in front of him and said coldly, "If you don't come out, I will shoot."
What's ahead?
Stark didn't know, but he could feel the malice and madness emanating from the thick black fog.
"It's interesting that you can actually come here."
A woman's voice came out from the black mist, and the woman who had just appeared for a moment came out.
She still looks the same, with long pale golden hair and wearing a white dress, just like a princess.
And her appearance is as delicate as a doll princess, except that the eyeshadow on her eyes is black and her lips are also dark, giving people a strange sense of beauty.
"perhaps……"
She looked at Stark and made a strange smile.
"You are the sacrifice that can interfere with the terrifying balance of the beginning!"
