It is clear that the ancient sounds are full of secret codes.
I've told you that the skeleton arm in front of you is just a puppet. There's no hint of it, and no intention of hiding it.
But no matter how Xu Le looked at it, it felt weird.
So weird!
He had imagined and seen many different forms of puppets.
Human males, human females, exquisite dolls, or even dogs and cats, Xu Le has thought about all of these.
But the giant skeleton arm in front of him couldn't be matched with the puppet body no matter how he looked at it.
In Xu Le's opinion, the puppet itself must be in a relatively delicate state.
The arm in front of me is too big.
"What is this thing?" Feiyu asked loudly.
Cang Ming behind her frowned slightly and responded in a low voice:
"Although it feels strange, I can sense a strong aura of the Son of Ancient Yinduo from it. Perhaps, it is a puppet..."
"Is it a puppet?"
Obviously, neither Cangming nor Feiyu believed this conclusion.
What I found was too simple and the shape was too strange.
In short, there is no way to say.
"In this state, let me use the secret method - Soul Locking."
A clear purple chain appeared out of nowhere and quickly wrapped around the skeleton's arm.
Although the skeleton arms have amazing defensive capabilities, their offensive power is also terrifying.
But its speed deficiency was obvious. Facing Cangming's chain attack, it couldn't dodge at all and was soon trapped by the purple chains.
"Strangulation." Cang Ming clenched his fists.
Psychic burst.
The hard skeleton arm was strangled by the spirit, and the hard bones began to break.
Kacha!
The arm broke apart and turned into a pile of ashes, which scattered in the surrounding air...
At the same time as the skeleton arm died, Xu Le and the other four suddenly fell to the ground.
It was as if a platform for them to stand on suddenly appeared beneath their feet.
"This? Is it solved?" Feiyu looked at the ashes floating around with a strange expression.
After killing the skeleton arm, the remaining aura of the Son of Ancient Yinduo also disappeared.
"Is it the real body? A puppet?"
"I don't know if this thing is the real body..."
"Probably not."
Cang Ming raised his soul lock. After killing the Bone Hand, his soul lock was also stained with a hint of gray.
This time, even Xu Le did not discover it in advance, but Cangming felt it himself.
The gray color did not have any extra aura, nor any energy or curse reaction.
But when it fell on the soul lock, no matter how Cangming used his spiritual power to dispel it, the gray color showed no reaction, as if it was independent of this world.
"This grey color may be what the puppet left behind. It should be some kind of trick."
Cangming lifted his chains, with no intention of hiding anything.
Seeing this, Xu Le couldn't help but admire the old man's state of mind.
"There are some similar marks on Master Feiyu's left arm, at the nineteenth feather below his arm."
"What?" Feiyu still hasn't discovered it.
After being reminded by Xu Le, she looked at the feathers and found that there was indeed some gray left.
"What is this thing?"
“I don’t know, but my guess is the same as what Mr. Cangming said, it should be some kind of trick used by the puppet.
As we targeted it, it also targeted us.
Three level 8s, with the means of the Son of Gu Yinduo, if they can kill us all.
Even for a puppet, this is probably a huge benefit."
Xu Le stomped his feet, and suddenly, the smooth ground began to crack.
Xu Le looked at his feet with a strange expression:
"No way, it's so fragile?"
"What did you do?"
"If I say I didn't do anything, would you believe me?"
"I believe it." Chi Xiao spoke first and also blocked Fei Yu's mouth.
Magma began to emerge from the cracked ground, and gravel and heat began to rise upward, making this area suddenly become like Chi Xiao's Flame Realm.
"Chi Xiao, did you do this?"
"Do you feel my psychic energy?"
"No."
"Why are you asking?"
During the conversation, the places where they could stand were shattered bit by bit, and soon they had no place to stand.
I can only fly into the air, fly upwards, trying to escape from this world.
But no matter how they flew, the magma and heat under their feet followed closely.
And the passage in the sky seemed to have no end.
"Stop flying, we have fallen into the rules of puppets." Cang Ming spoke up to stop everyone from flying.
"What should we do now?" Feiyu asked.
Xu Le didn't say anything, but looked at Chi Xiao.
In this magma-filled environment, others may need to consume a lot of spiritual energy to fight the heat flow.
But for Chi Xiao, it is simply a home court that can increase his strength.
At a time like this, letting her handle it is naturally the best thing to do.
Chi Xiao also noticed Xu Le's gaze and asked directly:
"What do you want me to do?"
Xu Le glanced at the magma below and spoke slowly:
"I guess I should hide in this magma and see if there is a way to print it out."
"Lure him out? Can't we just kill him directly?"
“Killing these puppet traps will leave behind a gray substance, but I don’t know what it is.
But I think it’s not a good thing after all.”
“Gray matter.”
"Well, that gray matter will most likely remain on the body of the last killer, so... you can fight, but try not to deliver the final blow."
"Understood."
After a brief conversation, Chi Xiao jumped directly into the lava.
"Flame Prison, Great Flame Realm."
The magma that originally belonged to the puppet barrier actually began to flow in the opposite direction under the control of Chi Xiao's power.
The rising magma gradually became regular and turned into a magma vortex.
The hot magma began to rotate, and because of the vortex, the magma began to be pulled outward.
At the center of the vortex, the magma gradually became less and the monster hidden in the magma gradually revealed its true form.
A monster that looks like a lump of meat.
Xu Le had seen similar descriptions in some games and books in his previous life.
Puppet - Kegetuya, Level 8 Monster, Son of Guyinduo
It is indeed Kegetuya, but it looks like a hot version.
Kegetuya waved his two small tumorous arms, as if to resist Chi Xiao's Great Flame Realm.
As it waved its arms, more magma emerged from the ground.
It seems to like magma very much and dislike the outside air.
So he wanted to cover himself with magma.
How could Chi Xiao give it such an opportunity? The Flame Prison Snake instantly emerged and wrapped around Kegetuya, and then Chi Xiao quickly absorbed the heat and turned it into a solid sealing stone.
Kgetuya was trapped inside and started screaming instantly.
With a howl, the Flame Prison Serpent that had cooled into a sealing stone was melted into magma again.
It and Chi Xiao are competing for the power to control fire.
"Help!" Chi Xiao released more Flame Prison Snakes and asked Fei Yu and Cang Ming for help.
Feiyu frowned and flew forward.
Cang Ming was a little hesitant and looked at the gray on his chain hesitantly.
But his slight hesitation immediately made Xu Le beside him become sarcastic.
"I hate it. I can't fight against a strong enemy. How can I be so timid and cowardly? I am not a man at all."
Cang Ming: …
He knew Xu Le was mocking him, but he didn't really care about the mockery.
He has heard countless more nasty things.
Cangming did hesitate because of the gray, but he was also considering more issues.
Killing these freaks does have the potential to leave grey matter behind, leading to subsequent restraints, especially those imposed by puppets.
But someone has to kill the monsters created by the puppets, otherwise the exploration cannot move forward.
The longer you delay, the greater the possibility of failure.
They don't have that much time...
"Secret method - Soul-locking spell."
Finally, Cangming decided to take action, and once he took action, he would kill with one strike!
The chains constructed by secret magic and soul directly trapped Kgetuya.
The cooled rock snake of the Hellfire Serpent pierced directly into its body, and Cangming detonated the soul lock at the same time.
null.
Kgetuya instantly became one with the soul lock and disappeared in front of everyone.
A clean kill.
It also allowed Xu Le and Chi Xiao to truly witness Cang Ming's strength.
Very strong.
As expected, he is a man who can fight monsters like those in the forest head-on.
Cangming's decisiveness at this time also gave Xu Le some ideas.
"Cangming must have noticed the danger of Gray, but he still took action decisively, risking everything..."
After a moment's thought, Xu Le understood what Cang Ming meant.
The old man's pressure is no less than his.
While he is growing up, he also needs to face the interference of Hongyue.
Perhaps this is why Cangming is eager to hunt down the puppet.
"Mr. Cangming is so amazing."
"Haha, the future belongs to you young people."
Cangming smiled meaningfully.
Seeing this, Xu Le didn't say much.
He also figured out the problem that Cangming had figured out, but he still had no intention of taking action.
Level 7 is the best camouflage color.
Precisely because the puppet projection had fought with him, Xu Le was more certain that the puppet must be very confident in his own fighting ability.
Very powerful, but not powerful enough.
At least for level 8 creatures, especially level 8 creatures like the Son of Gu Yinduo, Xu Le's strength is not enough.
The puppet projection did not see the realm of reincarnation.
That is your chance.
He wanted to hide this opportunity until the last moment as much as possible.
"Mr. Cangming, your eyes."
Sure enough, there was some more gray on Cangming's body, and this time the gray fell on his eyes.
The originally brown child's hole has some more silver-gray color, which makes it look quite mysterious.
Cang Min touched his own hole and shook his head as if he didn't care much.
"It's impossible for everything to be peaceful and tranquil. Someone has to carry the burden and move forward."
Xu Le's mouth twitched. What he said...
Suddenly, he looked up at the sky with awareness, and then looked at the ground beneath his feet.
After the death of Puppet-Kgetuya, the originally hot magma gradually cooled down.
The hot air had not yet completely dissipated, and a new coolness came from the soles of my feet.
"If nothing unexpected happens, something unexpected will happen."
As soon as Xu Le opened his mouth, the other three also stood ready.
Obviously, they all felt the chill.
The cold began to appear in every corner, leaving no blind spots.
"Is it frost this time?" Chi Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.
In fact, for her, facing ice is no more difficult than facing fire. As long as her strength is stronger than the opponent, everything will not be a problem.
"The Great Flame Realm."
Together with the Flame Realm, the coldness around the other people was immediately dispelled.
The wind and snow had already fallen from above the pit, and were getting heavier and heavier.
The drifting snowflakes will melt when they encounter flames, evaporate into water vapor and rise, but will soon be frozen by the new cold.
This transformation is cumulative. As one thing grows stronger while the other decreases, Chi Xiao's flame begins to become erratic, like a flame falling into the sea.
"Where is the target this time?" Chi Xiao asked.
Xu Le did not answer immediately.
His gaze rested on Cangming's gray eyes, and he suddenly said:
"I feel something is wrong. What we are doing now has always been a puppet arrangement."
"What do you mean?" Feiyu asked directly.
Cang Ming also looked at Xu Le thoughtfully.
Xu Le naturally would not hold back at this time. While thinking rapidly in an ethereal state, he also directly stated his own inferences.
"We have now fallen into the puppet trap. It seems that we are cracking it, but in fact, we are nesting the dolls."
"Matryoshka?"
“Yes, the first grey one is the ghost from the Spider Palace, and it’s easy to deal with.
The second one is the skeleton arm at the entrance of the abyss, which is not difficult to defeat either.
The third one is Flame Kegtua, which is already a bit tricky.
Now it's the fourth one, and I can't even find it immediately, and it is constantly consuming our spiritual energy.
Let us think that we are breaking through these traps.
In fact, the so-called cracking is actually the trap itself. The difficulty of each link is linked together, which makes us deeply trapped in it and unable to extricate ourselves.
I don't know the rules and principles behind it, but I think it might have something to do with the gray matter.
Its function should be to superimpose the strength of rules.
As the amount of gray matter increases, the strength of the rules is also increasing, and now it is the fourth level of strength. "
After Xu Le's explanation, Cang Ming responded immediately. He felt that what Xu Le said made sense:
“Hearing you say that, it feels really difficult.
Mr. Xu Le, what do you think is the way to break the current situation? "
"I think... since it's difficult, let's not do it."
"Hmm? What do you mean?"
"Brute force."
When she heard about brute force cracking, Chi Xiao's eyes lit up. She was tired of this kind of slow and hasty approach to cracking the rules.
If brute force was the way out, she would have to do it with great force.
"Great strength brings about miracles."
"That's right, great force can make miracles happen, and violence can overcome all the bells and whistles."
“It’s a crude idea, but I think it’s worth a try.”
Several people looked at each other, then nodded to each other, and began to gather their spiritual energy.
But Xu Le still didn't move.
"Why don't you do it?"
“With less power comes less responsibility…”
"Okay, okay, stop talking. It's annoying to listen to."
"Emperor Yan."
"Soul-splitting."
"Blood curse."
Chi Xiao, Cang Ming, and Fei Yu each burst out with extremely powerful spiritual energy.
Instead of attacking outward, they pushed their moves toward each other.
boom!
