The explosion instantly swept through the pit. The powerful force directly dispelled the cold and completely shattered the surrounding solid walls.
This pit is indeed the embodiment of the puppet's rules.
But even the puppet-level rules cannot withstand the superposition of three level 8 powers.
The pothole finally broke.
The ground beneath the feet of Xu Le and his companions suddenly felt empty, as if they were about to fall downwards again.
However, after the hole was shattered, the sense of being restricted by rules also disappeared. Without the constraints of rules, flying was no longer a problem.
Xu Le and the other two floated up again, but Fei Yu, who was the best at flying, fell straight down.
Seeing that Feiyu was in trouble, Cangming immediately dropped down, flew quickly to catch up with her, and pulled her up.
"Fei Yu? What's wrong with you?"
"Uh, I suddenly feel very uncomfortable. It's Gu Yinduo... It's much stronger than the one we studied. It knows the structure of the Red Moon. It's eroding me..."
After hearing Feiyu's words, Cangming realized that this area was filled with ancient sound energy.
This level of concentration cannot be described as a strange nest. Even the foggy area in the forest is not so outrageous.
During this short flight, many small purple water droplets had formed on Cangming's clothes.
The same situation appeared on Feiyu's wings, all of which were covered with purple marks.
The original form of Gu Yinduo's spiritual energy, that is, its pure form, is blue.
Many people know this. Xu Le has maintained the blue ancient sound of pure spiritual energy for a long time.
But the ancient sound of spiritual energy at the moment is purple.
It is no longer like blue psychic energy. Although it is corrosive, it is very stable and peaceful. If you do not actively absorb it, the blue psychic energy will not attack you.
The purple psychic energy is full of aggressiveness. Xu Le, Chi Xiao and Cang Ming are very aggressive because of the uniqueness and inclusiveness of human beings.
Was not attacked by this kind of psychic energy.
But Feiyu can't do that.
Although she and Cangming had studied the issue of Gu Yinduo's spiritual power for a long time, Cangming even tried to merge Hongyue and Gu Yinduo.
But that fusion does not change the essence of one of the three gods of Feiyu Hongyue.
After Feiyu appeared in this area, he was immediately attacked by this special spiritual energy.
In fact, this cannot be considered an attack, but rather the unique assimilation properties of these purple spiritual energies.
They think Feiyu is an alien and needs to be assimilated!
"What's going on here? Xu Le, Chi Xiao, come and help me." Cang Ming said loudly.
Although Feiyu is his soul slave, he plays a vital role to him since he is a level 8 fighter after all.
If something really happens to Feiyu, their combat effectiveness will be greatly weakened.
Therefore, even though he was somewhat reluctant, Cangming still needed the help of Xu Le and Chi Xiao.
Xu Le and Chi Xiao did not expect Fei Yu's reaction to be so big.
It's almost like a pet is in stress, as if it could die at any moment.
There is nothing Chi Xiao can do.
She was only good at causing trouble. She was not very good at healing others, so she could only watch Xu Le helplessly.
Xu Le frowned slightly, pressed his palm on Fei Yu's wings, and scraped off some purple psychic liquid.
These "Guyinduo" spiritual powers are indeed somewhat special.
It has the scent of the red moon, but it is not entirely the red moon.
The feeling it gave Xu Le was somewhat similar to that of Akabane whom he had met in the underground prison before.
Finally, Xu Le placed his palm on Feiyu's forehead.
The hidden branches began to absorb the spiritual energy.
Xu Le certainly has no shortage of psychic energy, so what he is doing now can be considered a good deed.
Seeing that Feiyu's condition gradually stabilized, Cangming also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Xu Le. If you hadn't helped, I would have been forced to give up this operation."
"You're welcome, Mr. Cangming. We will be solid allies until the puppet is defeated."
Xu Le's words have a double meaning.
Cang Ming narrowed his eyes and nodded.
"Yes, we are solid allies now and should help each other."
After comforting Feiyu and Cangming, Xu Le began to think about the current situation.
What's in the darker part? Is the puppet in there
They have no way of knowing now.
Before Feiyu recovered, they might not be able to continue exploring.
After all, Feiyu's existence is the best meat shield.
But I'd like to take this opportunity to ask some questions that I had in my mind.
Under normal circumstances, Xu Le would definitely not get answers to these questions, but it was different now, because they were allies now.
What is an alliance? Alliance = good brothers.
At least before defeating the puppet, they were good brothers, at least on the surface.
This old guy Cangming may be old, but he can't lie to his brothers about these things, right
"Mr. Cangming, have you noticed Chiyu's changes before?"
"Akabane? Wasn't he...dealt with by you?" Cangming was a little surprised, and his expression became a little hesitant.
After all, they were unkind in what happened to Akabane last time.
However, he didn't expect that he had dug a big hole for himself, which allowed Xu Le and his team to take advantage of the opportunity and defeat Sen Lin.
When Xu Le saw Cang Ming's expression, he understood.
This old man is not perfect.
He was unaware of the distortions in the underground prison.
“During the battle with us, Akabane underwent a special transformation, and he was promoted to level 8, which makes him very powerful.
Chi Xiao and I used up all our trump cards and went through untold hardships before we defeated it.
And we both broke through, so we had a chance."
“…” Cang Ming was stunned for a moment.
It’s not that he didn’t believe what Xu Le said, but the situation Xu Le described was too shocking for him.
That guy Akabane actually broke through to level 8.
This... how is it possible
"That's impossible. No matter what, Akabane is one of the Full Moon Angels. His power is indeed very strong, but creatures of the Red Moon system are ultimately subject to the control of the Red Moon itself..."
Cang Ming was halfway through explaining when Xu Le interrupted him.
"Let me interrupt for a moment. I have roughly guessed what Mr. Cangming meant.
The Red Moon biological system is subject to the constraints of the Red Moon itself. Before level 4, these Red Moon creatures can be promoted freely.
But after reaching level 4, which is the advanced level, they need the Red Moon to bestow the power of faith, merit, responsibility, or the favor of the Red Moon itself.
Even the Three Gods of Red Moon are like this.
So you think that Akabane, the Full Moon Angel, does not have the ability to advance independently, right?"
You have already spoken, what else can I say
Cangming nodded:
“That’s what I mean. Although Akabane is very strong and can be considered the strongest among the level 7s, there is still a fundamental difference between him and the level 8s.
As a Red Moon creature, he did not have the conditions to advance to level 8.
The nature of the Red Moon does not allow the appearance of level 8 other than the Three Gods."
"But what if... Akabane is no longer a Red Moon creature?"
"Huh?" Not only Cangming was surprised, even Feiyu, who was in a bad condition, sat up suddenly.
"What do you mean?"
"Have you seen this purple spiritual energy?" A purple drop of water gathered in Xu Le's hand.
The overflow of spiritual energy also gave Feiyu a strong sense of discomfort.
The water bead spiritual energy feels like the fusion of the two spiritual energies, and there is no hint of concealment at all.
"Fusion..."
"Yes, Gu Yinduo and Hongyue have merged. Of course, there is another possibility. They are devouring each other and absorbing each other's power to gain new abilities and rules."
In fact, this point has been there since the fruit rewards in the Mother Tree Realm period.
“A very novel idea… Of course, it could be true.”
Cangming thought about it and gave his affirmative opinion.
"Is it possible to completely merge Gu Yinduo and Hongyue and have the power flow freely in my body?" Feiyu was a little amazed.
She had absorbed a lot of ancient spiritual energy, but most of it was transformed.
Because her essence is the Red Moon, she cannot change that.
In fact, Xu Le’s situation is similar.
He can indeed absorb almost all kinds of energy, but after absorption, it will be transformed into chaos by the Soul-Eating Tree. It used to be Ancient Sound-Darkness.
The energy of other psychics will be retained, but the properties will be cleared.
There are some differences between Akabane's condition and the one described by Xu Le.
“Yes, after mastering this fusion form, Akabane gained some new abilities.
He was able to mobilize the power of Gu Yin Duo Huang Quan, and then integrate it into his own Red Moon Eyeball, releasing the ability of the Eye of Death.
It’s powerful and hard to defend against.”
Xu Le's words made Cangming and Feiyu fall into silence.
Akabane's situation is too special, and they need time to digest this information.
Chi Xiao, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said:
"Xu Le, don't you feel that this place is a little familiar?"
Soon, a large purple tree with a crown appeared in the sight of several people, although it was not very clear due to the distance and the fact that it was hidden in the darkness.
But as they descended, the outline of the tree became clearer.
"The Mother Tree Realm? Why does it feel like it has completely changed?"
"Do you still remember that there is actually more than one Mother Tree Realm?" Chi Xiao suddenly asked.
"Yeah." Xu Le responded, but he didn't know what Chi Xiao meant.
"But this one doesn't look like the one we were in before."
"That's hard to say."
"Why do you say that?"
“When the times enter the late stage, everything will enter a new cycle. This is a proverb circulating in the ancient audio world.
The realm of the mother tree is an existence similar to the projection of the son of Gu Yinduo. It originates from the mother tree itself and is also the diffusion of the mother tree's will.
But you also know about the series of changes that happened in Gu Yinduo.
The release rules were handed over to the son of Gu Yinduo, and he also experienced the son of Gu Yinduo's betrayal and counterattack.
The Mother Tree Realm, which collects information and exists like a projection plane, is gradually collapsing.
And this place gives me the feeling of being a testing ground for the ancient Yinduomu tree.
Maybe…”
Chi Xiao shook her head. Because she was very familiar with the Mother Tree Realm, she thought of a lot of things when she saw this place.
But it is still difficult to get her to express it reasonably.
Xu Le patted Chi Xiao on the shoulder and consoled him:
"Well, it's rare for you to say so much at once."
"..." Chi Xiao gave him a look of dissatisfaction, but did not continue speaking.
“I understand what you mean. Perhaps this place has become the Mother Tree’s experimental site. Or perhaps… the Mother Tree has actually operated something.
In a hidden corner, where no one knows.
Someone like Akabane might be the product of their experiment."
Xu Le made a simple analysis and reasoning, and the whole situation became much clearer.
However, although he sorted out Chi Xiao's thoughts, he had more doubts in his mind.
A hidden corner, a place no one knows.
This sounds simple, but it is not simple for the Guyinduomu tree today.
The rules have been distributed to the sons of Gu Yinduo, and the power of the mother tree has been weakened to the extreme.
Perhaps the only reserved area is the realm of the mother tree, the land of the underworld, and ultimately the core of the mother tree.
Only these three places can be considered the mother tree’s private land.
The core of the main body will definitely not try it easily. If you try it casually, you may easily kill yourself.
The fusion of Gu Yinduo and Hongyue is not that simple.
Then there is the land of Huangquan, where the Soul River is located, and also where the ancient Yinduomu tree absorbs the soul energy of the world.
Xu Le often goes there, the environment is very pure, at least it is very pure for now.
Souls are inherently fragile and they need a stable environment.
So the Yellow Springs is also impossible.
The last Mother Tree Realm... is indeed secretive enough, but each Mother Tree Realm is too independent and at risk of collapse, and those who eat the colorful fruit can reach here.
Xu Le always felt that this place didn't seem like the most core experimental site.
“Besides these three places, where else can fusion experiments be conducted
How did that guy Akabane obtain the power of Huangquan
Does Cangming really not know about this process
Or, wait…”
Xu Le suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Cang Ming.
Cangming, who was setting up a protective barrier for Feiyu, was a little confused:
"Why is Mr. Xu Le looking at me like that? Is there something wrong with me?"
Xu Le looked at Cang Ming deeply.
Judging from Cangming and Feiyu’s previous performance, he should really not know about Chiyu’s affairs.
But what is more obvious is that Cangming knows about Chiyu's existence.
This is really interesting.
"Mr. Cangming, how did Chiyu end up in your underground prison?"
“Akabane… He violated the Red Moon’s code, which is said to be an unforgivable sin, so he was thrown here by the Red Moon Lord to become my experimental material.
Life or death material.”
Xu Le's eyes flickered slightly. Was it thrown by Hongyue
It coincides with his previous idea.
But this idea will eventually lead to a very outrageous conclusion, which is...
Hongyue and Guyinduo have had dealings with each other.
There is even cooperation.
Is this possible
"Xu Le, now that we have landed, do you want to continue exploring?" Chi Xiao interrupted Xu Le's thoughts.
Xu Le also knew that no matter whether the fusion problem was real or not, and whether his guess was accurate or not, it would not change the purpose of their trip.
Hunting puppets.
"The problem is back to square one. Perhaps the puppet can give me an accurate answer."
