Rebirth in the apocalypse: Cannon fodder and real daughter no longer want to be human beings

dong dong dong~

The heart is beating strongly.

As her heart beat, the golden light continued to spread from her heart to her whole body and then overflowed. The light shield surrounding her became more solid and firm, firmly blocking the liquid condensed by the white mist and ensuring Zhu Yan's safety.

Zhu Yan blinked, and his golden pupils flashed brightly.

She has fully regained her self-consciousness and remembered everything that happened before. At the end of her memory, she was trapped in a strange barrier.

All she could see was nothing but the surging liquid, the mountains, the trees, the sky, even the caves and the ground had disappeared. Now she was like being in a world of water.

Zhu Yan tried to move, wanting to get to the edge of the barrier to see what was going on, but was surprised to find that she couldn't move.

Although Xiangyang's heart ensured her safety, she was unable to move.

Being unable to move and having limited actions, it becomes even more difficult to find a way around the obstacle.

I don't know what the barrier is like. White mist appeared out of nowhere, and then condensed into water. If it continues to develop, it is hard to guarantee that it will not become solid or undergo some other changes. Xiangyang's potential was stimulated. Although a protective shield was formed to protect safety, who could be sure that it would last forever?

What if it reaches a certain critical point and Xiangyang's determination fails?

She had tried the god-level protection before, which could defend against all attacks, but strangely it couldn't defend against the white fog.

These liquids were made of white mist, and even the god-level defenses would not be able to resist them. If she hadn't found a way to crack them, she would probably be unable to change her inevitable death.

But this liquid is very strange.

Zhu Yan carefully recalled the feeling of being wrapped in these liquids. But it was going to dissolve everything and turn everything into nothingness?

It felt like being remade.

Very weird.

But no matter how weird it is, don't be discouraged.

Zhu Yan carefully replayed what had happened before in his mind, bit by bit, trying to find a way out.

Time passed by, but I still had no clue.

Since she couldn't move, she tried to use her plant-based abilities to enter and explore.

As a result, the vines fell into the water like water falling into water, and they melted away before they could extend much further.

Try to attack with a power.

But it was like water entering the sea, without causing even a ripple.

The previous phenomenon of supernatural power rebound did not occur.

It was as if supernatural powers could not penetrate the liquid condensed from the white mist.

Can't be broken.

Zhu Yan frowned as he looked at the churning liquid in front of him, pondering on how to break through.

Since there is no clue, why not become stronger and try again?

After an unknown amount of time, Zhu Yan's eyes suddenly lit up.

With her current strength, no matter how hard she tries, it will be useless. Why not improve herself and try again?

With the blood crystals she has stored now, it should be enough for her to upgrade.

Even if it's not enough, there is no other way but to try my best.

Fortunately, she had tried it before. Although people could not enter the space, nor could they store things into the space, they could take things out of the space.

This strange barrier has a significant effect and it even affects her space.

Zhu Yan muttered to herself and sat down cross-legged. As her mind turned, a fist-sized blood-red crystal appeared in her hand.

Taking a deep breath, Zhu Yan began to absorb the blood crystal.

Soon, the energy in the blood crystal was completely absorbed and dissipated into the air. The energy poured into her body and automatically gathered towards the source bead in her body. Finally, it was all absorbed by the source bead.

Zhu Yan took out another one and continued to absorb it.

One...

Two...

Time passed by minute by minute.

Zhu Yan was like a humanoid machine, absorbing the blood crystals tirelessly.

After an unknown amount of time, the source bead in Zhu Yan's body finally showed signs of change.

Runes emerged one after another, flashing faintly.

The light became brighter and brighter as the energy in the blood crystal was continuously replenished. Finally, there was a crisp sound and a crack appeared in the source bead.

Zhu Yan's heart skipped a beat, and a huge pain as if his soul was being torn apart rose from the depths of his soul.

Wow ~

Zhu Yan suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

A crack appeared between his eyebrows, and blood gushed out. Then another crack appeared on his face, on his arms, on his body... one crack after another appeared...

Zhu Yan was like a cracking porcelain doll, with countless tear marks all over her body, and blood instantly stained her clothes.

Stop.

If you don't stop, you will definitely die.

can't stop.

There is only one chance to completely escape the fate of being a puppet. If you miss it, it will be all over.

Two voices suddenly appeared in her mind, pulling her hard.

Blood kept oozing out from Zhu Yan's nose.

In just a few breaths, the whole person seemed to be soaked in blood.

Do not!

can't stop.

Open the bow without turning back the arrow.

Even if she died, she would completely escape the fate of being at the mercy of others.

Zhu Yan became furious, and a blood crystal appeared in his other hand, which he tried desperately to absorb.

Click~

Click~

The crisp sound of cracking continued to be heard.

More and more cracks appeared in the source bead until the entire bead was covered with cracks.

There is light, leaking out from the cracks.

The light was soft, white and gentle. Zhu Yan had seen it many times. It was the light emitted by a rare treasure.

It seems that there is also a supreme treasure hidden in this broken source bead.

With her continuous supply of energy, it will break out of the ground.

continue!

Come on!

Zhu Yan felt the white light, endured the tremendous pain coming from deep within his body and soul, and continued to absorb the blood crystals.

The crack on the source bead became bigger and bigger, and finally after a crisp sound, it fell off completely, revealing a source bead that was much smaller, but of much higher quality, and as crystal clear as jade.

As soon as the source pearl appeared in the world, it began to rotate.

It spreads faster and faster.

The surrounding energy formed a vortex under its drive and was swallowed up madly.

Mysterious runes appeared on the source bead.

Until the last rune fell, there was a loud bang, and a white light shot up into the sky from the source bead.

Zhu Yan's mind was in turmoil as the white light actually broke through the barrier and soared into the sky.

She could clearly sense that some invisible barriers were also broken at this moment.

But before she could sense it carefully, she found that the invisible barrier she was in had reacted.

The barrier began to shrink rapidly, squeezing towards him.

The protective shield formed by Xiangyang's heart suddenly burst out with dazzling light, resisting the pressure from the outside world.

It seems that as long as she completes her advancement, she will be able to break through this strange barrier and end the current passive situation.

With a way to survive in front of him, Zhu Yan did not waste a single moment. He kept a close eye on the condition of Xiangyang's shield while speeding up the absorption of blood crystals.

The speed at which the source beads in her body rotated became faster and faster. As soon as a fist-sized crystal reached her hand, it was swallowed up and dissipated in the air.

The mountain of blood crystals melted at a terrifying speed.

Zhu Yan looked at Yuanzhu and suddenly had a bad feeling.

The speed at which the source beads evolve is far slower than the speed at which the blood crystals are consumed.

I am afraid that all the blood crystals she has stored will be devoured, and the source beads may not be able to complete their evolution. If this is true, the consequences are unimaginable.

But now she was trapped in this invisible barrier and couldn't find the blood crystal at all.

Even if we can, it might be too late.

Zhu Yan stared at the source bead nervously.

I thought several million blood crystals were enough, but I didn't expect the consumption to be so horrific. I just hope that the source beads can be successfully upgraded before the source crystals are completely consumed.

Zhu Yan was waiting silently.

But this glimmer of hope was completely dashed when the last blood crystal was devoured, the source bead did not stop spinning, and the vortex around it began to surge violently due to lack of energy supply.

The movement of the source bead was like that of a baby who was not full and was clamoring to continue eating.

How to do?

The blood crystal is gone, and the supplies and source beads in the space are useless.

She doesn't eat the rare treasures she collected but hasn't activated.

She couldn't move, so could she let the Source Pearl swallow up the mist?

Zhu Yan looked at the mist that was also surging violently outside the Xiangyang shield, thinking frantically.

Now all she could touch was the mist that had turned into slime-like water due to the crazy squeezing.

But the fear is that if she swallows the mist, the Source Pearl will successfully advance, but she will lose herself.

But if she doesn't absorb the mist, she will have nothing for the source bead to absorb.

Zhu Yan was conflicted.

The source beads in the body began to vibrate.

Like a hungry beast that began to riot, a huge suction force came from the source bead, as if it wanted to devour everything around it.

Click~

There was a soft sound.

Zhu Yan looked up suddenly and saw that the solid Xiangyang Shield had cracked under the double force of the continuous squeezing of the mist and the huge suction of the source bead.

Once the Xiangyang shield is broken, she will have no choice but to absorb the mist even if she doesn't want to.

Then be prepared.

Once the Xiangyang shield is broken, it will give up resistance and let the Source Pearl absorb the mist with all its strength, while she will take back the Xiangyang power to protect her own consciousness.

As long as her consciousness is not wiped out, she will be the final winner.

Zhu Yan's eyes were cold and sharp, and he was ready for a fight to the death.

……

Three hundred miles away, in a canyon.

Three figures formed a triangle and quickly searched the surroundings.

"Here, there are traces of the active bubble. We are looking in the right direction."

When one of the figures' eyes fell on a big tree, he suddenly stopped, leaned over to carefully examine the tree, and excitedly greeted the other two.

The other two figures quickly approached and looked towards the tree, but found nothing.

"The Source Bubble is higher than this world. You are creatures of this world, restricted by the laws of heaven, and naturally cannot spy on the traces of the Source Bubble. But I am different. Although I am living in this paper man, I am from the Source World. Naturally, I can spy on the situation that you cannot discover."

The paper man faced the puzzled looks of the two people, and although he tried to appear calm, his expression still unconsciously revealed a hint of arrogance as he explained to the two people.

However, this paper figure looks exactly like Zhu Yan, and is none other than Zhu Yan's lost paper figure puppet.

"From the traces, it seems that the source bubble hit this tree not long ago. If we search to the south, we should be able to catch up soon."

The paper man pointed to a place on the tree trunk and showed the two people the specific location.

The two still saw nothing.

"Alright, stop looking. Let's chase first. It's important to control the source bubble."

The paper man said this and flew towards the south first.

Fu Heng took another look at the tree that showed nothing, turned around and ordered the other person: "Follow me." Then he followed the paper man.

The man looked like he had just been through a battle, with blood in the corners of his eyes, scars all over his face and body, and he looked in a miserable state. However, he looked at Fu Heng with an extremely respectful expression.

He stood behind Fu Heng, and when he heard the order, he immediately followed, following the order like a puppet.

If Zhu Yan were here, he would definitely recognize this person. It was Jiang Li.
