Bulwark of Light

Chapter 496 The Eternal Golden Spike Flower (ask for a monthly ticket!)
"My king...until today, I finally waited for your arrival."

my king?

Gu Shen was startled for a moment before realizing that he was talking to himself.

No... To be more precise, it is to have a conversation with the ray of "Pluto's fire" between his eyebrows.

After the Battle of the Cemetery, the aura of Pluto's fire seed has blended with the "blazing fire" between his brows. After the two have blended, although Gu Shen has not yet been able to refine the fire seed...but he has been able to show a faint God's coercion.

This is also the reason why the blazing fire can directly crush the ghost veil!

This is Hades' unburned fire—

Although the situation is weak now.

But one day... it will become a prairie fire!
After the big snake finished speaking, it maintained a bowed and respectful posture.

Gu Shen touched his forehead.

He frowned and slowly looked towards the maze.

21 years?
This big snake is the "beast" left by the previous Pluto?
Lin Lin raised a dog with the ability of mental hypnosis, so Pluto raised such a big snake with awakening ability... It seems reasonable, but this snake is too big.

Is it because of being in a dream?
"Release the dream and let me see what you look like in the real world."

Gu Shen gave the first order.

The surrounding environment has not changed.

"My king... what you see now is my real appearance." The big snake respectfully said.

Gu Shen's pupils shrank slightly.

"I walk between reality and illusion... I am the ferry spirit in the 'Pure Land'."

The slender golden snake eyes stared at Gu Shen, and the big snake spoke slowly, with a delicate voice: "You have suffered a serious injury, and you put me here, saying that you are waiting for the next encounter in the cycle of fate."

"Then, all this..."

Gu Shen looked at the blood all over the ground.

"If you don't dislike...these extraordinary people can be extracted to become the souls in the 'Pure Land'." The big snake said softly: "Over the years, I have prepared many souls for the king. Under this canyon, buried There are many bright soul fires, and your dark fire can eat as much as you like."

"extract?"

After hearing these words, Gu Shen's blazing fire actually felt aroused.

Blazing fire covered the field of vision.

He seems to have really seen through this dream... The transcendents of the second elite team did not die in battle, but sank into this dream, their spirits fell into extinction, and their bodies were destroyed. The snow is freezing!
It turns out...the strangeness of the book of life and death came from this!

This big snake, following the will of the former Pluto, has been entrenched here, collecting the souls of "explorers"...

And the horror is.

Yuan Yuan, Li Chen, Su He...the souls of these people are like a dim ray of light at this moment, and they can decide to extinguish it or rekindle it with a single thought.

This kind of ignition is not a direct awakening.

But in an "alternative" way...to ignite the soul.

Once these transcendent beings who have sunk into the serpent's spiritual world are "resurrected" by the blazing fire in this way, they will become Pluto's soldiers!

This... is extraction!
This idea... only flashed for a moment, but Gu Shen gave up.

"I don't want to extract."

Gu Shen said coldly: "I want them all to 'come back to life'."

The big snake was startled slightly, and said softly: "My king...in fact, they are not dead, but their spirits have fallen into 'sinking'. This is what you ordered back then. Without your token and entrustment, they must not be let go."

The previous Pluto left such an order?

Gu Shen narrowed his eyes slightly.

"The spirits of these extraordinary people can be revived, but before..." The big snake was entrenched on the rock.

Gu Shen looked back, and in the bitter wind, wisps of bleak soul fire radiated.

It is the soul of the past.

The winding labyrinth is no longer hidden at this moment, countless routes spread out, and the barriers at this moment are like air... Gu Shen saw countless wanderers in this snow-capped mountain maze.

It's not just the Transcendents of the Survey Legion... There are also some explorer troops from other continents. Many of those who arrived in the maze before were buried in the snow.

The big snake kept their souls, waiting for the extraction of Hades.

And their physical bodies have been frozen forever.

The physical bodies of those people have been severely corroded...it is impossible to recover.

Gu Shen said softly: "I understand, just revive these people in front of me."

It has to be said that Gu Shen was really surprised to see the large amount of soul fire that emerged.

These are the spirits that I can "extract"?

But... no matter how powerful the method of a Pluto is, it is impossible to revive the dilapidated body.

"As you wish."

The big snake lowered its head slightly, it spit out its thin tongue, and a burst of golden mist spewed out, and the eleven soul fires of the second team of the investigation legion disappeared in the golden mist... The previous battle was actually in a dream broke out, but the participants of the second team did not suffer any real damage.

If there is.

It's some mental damage.

In the battle just now, Orochi saw the "monarch" who had been away for 21 years. It mistook Gu Shen's observation for a censorship-like stare, so it unreservedly showed its strongest fighting power...

The elite squad of the Second Investigation Corps has never experienced such a fierce battle.

No matter how hard they try their best and cooperate with each other tacitly, the whole battle situation is still overwhelming.

A crushing defeat!
Li Chen, who "lived" to the end, even thought it was a boring game for the big snake.

In fact.

Orochi doesn't have such an evil taste of procrastinating for time, he's just showing Gu Shen... his own strength.

Watching these eleven soul fires gradually dissipate in his Pluto induction.

Gu Shen felt much more relaxed.

He looked at the big snake, frowned and asked, "How many years have you been following me?"

"..."

Orochi's golden pupils shrank slightly.

It seems to be thinking.

And after a long silence.

It spoke slowly, "My king, since we were born, we have only met once..."

This is an unexpected answer.

He was a little worried at first, whether this was a pet of the previous Pluto, would it recognize his true identity... Judging from the induction just now, it seems to recognize its owner through the breath of "Pluto Tinder".

"21 years...you only grew up for 21 years?"

Gu Shen was a little taken aback.

This big snake is also [-] meters in size in the real world. Judging from the combat power just displayed, this is probably capable of directly destroying a city. Without the cooperation of the two titles, it is almost impossible to stop it...

If you want to judge according to the danger level of the mission assigned by [Deep Sea].

This is the task of "S rank"!

The big snake lowered its head, closed its eyes, and revealed a peaceful contemplative posture. From between its brows, a dark black flame slowly emerged.

Gu Shen's blazing fire stirred up that familiar resonance again.

"I see……"

The previous king of Pluto actually separated a strand of fire and left it to the young snake 21 years ago.

No wonder.

It can survive in the [Old World]. Such a snake spirit devours the extraordinary source and spirit of the dead, and grows up under the warmth of the "Pluto Fire Seed". After 21 years, it has grown to such strength... It is reasonable.

Gu Shen spoke again: "About, how much do you remember about the events of 21 years?"

This is a matter of great concern to him.

Mr. Gu Changzhi, said to himself... After he explored the [Old World], he fought a battle with Hades and ended it.

At that time, Pluto was already insane.

Totally out of control!

Do the math, 21 years ago, it was almost the time when Pluto lost control. He arranged this snake spirit in the maze of [Old World], maybe it was related to the ominous loss of control?

The big snake shook his head slowly.

"At that time... my spiritual intelligence was not yet developed." It hissed: "Just remember, this ray of fire of yours raised me in the pure land, and I will follow you until the pure land collapses and the world is shattered."

This big snake was conceived from the pure land of the previous Pluto...

Gu Shen narrowed his eyes.

Because of the same source of fire, he looked at this big snake more and more cordially... Stretching out a palm, the big snake slowly brought its head closer. When he stepped into the dreamland of the big snake earlier, the fire debris stuck to the cold snow rock Above that, Gu Shen vaguely felt something strange.

The body temperature of this big snake is colder than snow.

But because of the guidance of "Fire Seed" and "Pluto Power", cold-blooded animals have also awakened human emotions.

The moment the palm touches.

Gu Shen felt a kind of supreme rule, connecting him with the big snake.

It's like extracting the soul fire of the dead.

He can take back his own "fire power" at any time.

It's just that after taking back the power... the power of the big snake will be greatly weakened.

If you continue to occupy the [Old World], there is only one ending, death.

Gu Shen didn't do that.

He looked at the big snake, and wherever he looked, he pierced his soul.

After thinking for a while, Gu Shen said softly, "Actually... I'm not the one who raised you here 21 years ago."

The big snake raised its head in bewilderment.

Confusion permeated the golden snake pupils.

"But I inherited his wisp of fire..."

Gu Shen said calmly: "You can choose to follow me, I will give you a longer life, you can also choose to be free, I will not take back this ray of fire."

"My king..."

Orochi was silent for a moment, but still used this title.

It said softly: "In 21 years, I was born from the pure land and was placed here. My soul was in chaos, and I only remembered a voice..."

"That voice told me, follow that ray of fire, and the fire is my king."

And 21 years later.

It sees clearly.

Gu Shen... is that wisp of fire.

Gu Shen is that king!

"so……"

The big snake said respectfully: "My king, I choose to follow you not for a longer life, but for the freedom I really yearn for."

"it is good."

Gu Shen nodded, he didn't say anything more, but asked, "Do you have a name?"

"name……"

The big snake looked dazed again.

It shook its head.

Since Pure Land was born, it has never had a name.

Gu Shen smiled and said, "Let me see your appearance...the whole appearance."

The sound landed.

The crackling sound of bang was continuously splashing and exploding beside the ears. In this dream, the big snake unscrupulously showed its "mighty power". The huge snake body was actually the last exit of the maze. Collapsed, flying snow avalanche shattered.

A long body that pierces through the clouds and the sky is raised before the eyes.

The big snake shook its body vigorously and let out a melodious neigh.

Every black long scale opened and closed with a sound, stirring up a crisp vibrato!
The golden color of the pair of snake pupils overflowed.

Its scales changed from black to golden, like diamond-shaped petals, making a pleasant impact sound.

At this moment, Gu Shen also started his "dream".

Pure land, come directly!

The big snake stood upright, staring blankly at the scene in front of it...

The pure land in my memory.

It looks like chaos.

But at this moment, it is completely different. There is a towering tree in the far sky, with endless green shade hanging down. Besides, it is full of vitality in all directions.

There are golden flower petals flying around him.

These petals complement the color of their own scales.

"This is what the Pure Land looks like now."

Gu Shenxin picked off a piece of golden spike flower, held it in front of him, and looked at the big snake.

He said slowly: "This is the golden spike flower that symbolizes eternity in the pure land. It is exactly the same color as your scales. From now on, your name... will be golden spike flower."
