Chapter 889: Seeing The Source, The Little Fish Dies
"Am I going to die?"
An Xiaoyu said softly.
"Don't talk nonsense."
Jiang You patted her head.
The girl rolled up her sleeves, and black lines appeared on her slender, snow-white right forearm.
Invaded by death air, and invaded by pollution.
To the naked eye they look pretty much the same.
If you study the difference carefully, it is probably that pollution sometimes distorts visible to the naked eye, like a living creature.
The black line on An Xiaoyu's arm is simply "black".
The dead energy burrows into the body, infecting the muscles and meridians, like maggots in the tarsal bones, and cannot be completely eliminated.
The weak and dense pain teased An Xiaoyu's nerves from time to time.
The pressure brought by the mental level far exceeds the physical pain.
Especially when he witnessed the black air spreading from his fingertips to his forearms... This sense of death that was gradually being swallowed up was the most devastating.
"It will be fine."
Jiang You reluctantly comforted him.
An Xiaoyu sighed slightly and asked, "Mr. Jiang, are you okay?"
"I'm lucky. These things may see me as a foreign object, so they are not very aggressive." Jiang You stretched out his hand.
Being in the mist of death, the two of them could see clearly.
These dead air masses seemed to be subject to some kind of repulsive force, constantly avoiding his palm.
"How amazing!"
An Xiaoyu's eyes widened.
"Because he is an outsider, it is difficult to absorb the energy of this world, and he will also be rejected by this world. I can't think of any other explanation."
Jiang You guessed.
"In that case, will it really be useful for us to find the source of the dead energy?" An Xiaoyu asked, raising his neck.
"We have to see if it's useful. It's good to be able to cut it off from the source. After all, I can digest 5% of the remains of high-level creatures, which is enough to restore a lot of strength."
Jiang You looked at the black clouds in the distance, "Almost there? There is no change in the concentration of death air, but there has been a huge leap in quality."
"Well, it's the mountain in front of us."
An Xiaoyu checked the map and nodded solemnly.
"That's it. I'll arrange for the shadow guards to take you out. Keep moving forward. If you can't bear it, wait until I can absorb the body and come out to find a way to solve your physical condition." Jiang You said.
"It doesn't matter. We have come so far, and we don't need to miss the last step. Besides, we are about to succeed, and I should identify the direction for Mr. Jiang."
An Xiaoyu spoke firmly.
Then he spread out the map and looked at it carefully.
After confirming that everything is correct, start leading the way.
Jiang You sighed in his heart and followed closely.
He did feel helpless.
The rejection of the world is not only reflected in the difficulty of absorbing energy.
There is also the transformation of shadow dependents.
At present, An Xiaoyu can only say that one to seventy-eight percent has been transformed, and the rest is far from being transformed.
And her transformation process can only passively absorb the shadow seed given by Jiang You.
If she had full shadow-eating ability, she wouldn't be so fragile.
If a solution cannot be found, An Xiaoyu will definitely be eroded by the death energy and die.
What is the source of death energy...
Jiangyou is hard to describe.
The closer he got, the more "desire" and "fear" arose in his heart.
The desire of lower-level creatures for higher-level creatures, and the instinctive awe of the body.
time flies.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
"Ahem."
The girl's cough brought him back from his thoughts.
"Little fish." Jiang You increased his shadow output, forming a barrier around her.
It's a pity that the death energy all around is pervasive, and there will always be threads penetrating the shadows.
"Mr. Jiang, I'm fine."
An Xiaoyu shook her pale face and said, "We'll be there soon."
"good."
Jiang You nodded and said in a deep voice, "After confirming the place, I will send you outside first. The concentration of death energy here is too exaggerated, and you cannot stay for a long time."
"No."
Xiaoyu replied.
Keep changing directions along the way.
The two quickly shuttled between the mountains.
Another day.
The death energy spread throughout An Xiaoyu's body.
The snow-white and tender insteps are covered with black lines, and the slender calves have vine-like textures.
It's like this when you open your clothes.
The whole person looked lifeless.
"arrive."
She steeled herself, put away the map, and pointed forward, "When you get to the top of this mountain, you will see your destination!"
"You go out first." Jiang You said.
"Forget it." An Xiaoyu forced a smile, his pupils still clear, "This is the treasure my father paid for with his life. After all, I should take a look at it for him."
"good."
The shadow held her petite body and assisted her progress.
The slope in front of them is long and the mountain road is winding. The trees on both sides have long since withered and died under the erosion of the death energy, turning into demon-like trees of death energy.
As Jiang You moved forward, he picked up the dead energy he could absorb and absorbed it, slowly recovering his condition.
After passing through the dense fog of death, for an instant, the two of them froze on the spot.
In front of him is a huge basin.
The peaks arched around, and the peaks at different heights were like ferocious bone spurs, clustering around the center of the basin.
Above here, thick dead air clouds cover the sky and block out the sun.
Looking at the center of the basin, fog of varying concentrations is scattered and becomes a lake.
The ground and sky were filled with deathly aura, leaving only some breathing space in the middle.
Black and gray intertwine to form the only color here.
The Executioner's character was turned on, and when he glanced at it, he couldn't see a single health bar.
"There's something in the ground."
Jiang You concentrated and observed the gas on the ground.
“We’re finally here!!”
Just as he was thinking about the lack of health bar, he heard the sound of laughter.
Jiang You looked over and saw a group of people walking out of the thick fog from the mountain opposite.
His body was covered with pustules and he looked crazy.
"The great Lord of Death, your most loyal believer, comes to say hello to you!"
"Our world is coming to an end, and at the same time, there will also be new life in the end!"
"Great Lord of Death, please draw down your curtains and protect us."
"We brought you..."
Boom!
Smoke and dust were everywhere.
The shadow formed a huge arrow, which penetrated the death aura and bombarded the hilltop on the other side, crushing the cultists to death on the spot.
The fanatical believer who was taking the oath did not even know who the attacker was before he died.
"You talk a lot."
Jiang You withdrew his gaze.
Scanning down intently, he tried to find the entrance from a condescending position.
As expected, the high-level corpse was buried under the dead air lake.
These dead energy are connected into a network and form a barrier, blocking most of the dead energy.
However, due to some minor loopholes, the death energy escaped.
"Mr. Jiang..." An Xiaoyu said weakly, holding the corner of his clothes and standing aside.
"That's what caused the death of your civilization."
Jiang You supported her.
"I saw it." An Xiaoyu narrowed his eyes, "Mr. Jiang, can you solve it?"
"I don't know, I'll try my best."
"Okay, then... I won't accompany you down." An Xiaoyu narrowed his eyes.
"Get some sleep."
He gently patted the girl's back and said softly.
