Chapter 429: Ming (Asking for Monthly Tickets and Subscriptions)
As the Black Mountain vibrated, the whole world soon resonated and vibrated. Wang Xuan held the Book of the Giant God and suddenly felt that the Black Mountain was not independent, but part of the building.
The existence summoned by the Book of the Giant God was too powerful, and its arrival caused the entire building to rebound. The vibration of the Black Mountain was actually closer to the reaction of the building rules.
Wang Xuan wanted to kill all those who entered the outer domain to hunt him down. This obviously touched a certain taboo of the Black Mountain. When the dark power invaded and wanted to include the entire outer domain into the dark domain, the Black Mountain vibrated, and the power of the dark invasion was immediately suppressed.
The masters of the major civilizations and the strong men from all sides who were originally unable to move suddenly felt the pressure subside, and they regained the ability to move.
Although their bodies were still under the pain and terrifying pressure that could tear them apart at any time, they immediately began to flee as soon as they regained their ability to move.
Everyone was shrouded in great fear. This fear accompanied them and seemed to wipe them out at any time. There was darkness all around. They could not see anyone except themselves, nor could they see where they were now. The only thing they could see was the black mountain that kept rising in the darkness.
In their minds, this black mountain was the only place that could shelter them. Their only thought was to escape to the black mountain and get shelter.
The masters of major civilizations and strong men from all sides gathered in the direction of the black mountain like a tide, and the vibration of the black mountain became more and more violent, constantly rising.
The black mountain, which was originally 10,000 meters high, doubled in a short period of time, and its height rose by thousands of meters.
The power of darkness was getting stronger and stronger, and an indescribable huge will descended on the outer domain, filling the entire space and time.
The existence summoned by the Giant God Book seemed to be angry because of the resistance of the black mountain. This huge will from the end of the dark abyss climbed down, and the darkness kept gathering in the direction of the black mountain. Wang Xuan held the Giant God Book in his left hand, and felt that the Giant God Book was absorbing his blood in an endless stream, and the vibration became more and more violent.
The stronger the power of this being, the greater the power that the Giant God Book needs to bear. Black Mountain began to suppress it from all directions, which triggered the unwillingness and anger of this being. When the power of its explosion exceeded the limit of the Giant God Book, Wang Xuan suddenly heard a crisp "crack" sound from the Giant God Book in his hand.
Wang Xuan was stunned and hurriedly lowered his head to see that the Giant God Book was shattered like glass.
The Giant God Book was originally severely damaged and could not be summoned again. This time, due to special circumstances, the wheel cut by the Wheel King cut off the Giant God Book and Wang Xuan's left hand. Between Wang Xuan's life and death, the Giant God Book, which was originally severely damaged, absorbed a lot of his blood and finally summoned the existence at the end of the dark abyss again.
However, the Giant God Book, which was already severely damaged, once again withstood such a powerful force, and finally could not bear it and shattered completely.
As the Giant God Book shattered and exploded into a large number of golden fragments, Wang Xuan was stunned.
He had signed a contract with the Book of the Giant God. He was the contractor of the Pentagram Lord. Now that the Book of the Giant God was shattered, what should he do next? Will he, the contractor, die?
All this flashed through his mind in an instant. The dark power that was originally rising suddenly stopped because of the shattering of the Book of the Giant God.
Wang Xuan felt a will full of anger, which was filled with unwillingness. The endless dark power no longer infected the entire outer domain, but concentrated in the direction where he was.
The wound on his left hand that was bleeding did not heal. Although the Book of the Giant God was shattered, the blood flowing out of the wound did not stop, but instead accelerated to flow out, forming a pentagram formed by blood on his left hand.
The four dark seeds hidden in his body suddenly emerged.
He had summoned the Book of the Giant God four times before, and a total of four dark seeds of "gluttony", "laziness", "greed" and "rage" were formed, which were vaguely equivalent to the legendary seven deadly sins.
These four seeds have been quietly lurking in his right hand without any reaction.
Until this moment, the Giant God Book was shattered, and the blood in Wang Xuan's body formed a pentagram pattern. The four dark seeds finally reacted and vibrated slightly with each other.
When the vibration resonance of the four dark seeds reached the moment of synchronization, the shattered fragments of the Giant God Book all turned into a little bit of golden light, resonating and vibrating with the four dark seeds. Suddenly, Wang Xuan seemed to have a suction force in his body. Wang Xuan watched the golden light spots manifested by the fragments of the Giant God Book flow along the wound of his left hand and flow into his body from the blood.
At this moment in his world, it was dark all around, except for the magnificent and tall black mountain in the distance. In this endless darkness, there was an indescribable huge black shadow squirming. As the fragments of the Giant God Book turned into golden light and entered the body, it immediately rushed towards the four dark seeds in his right hand.
These four dark seeds swallowed the fragments of the Giant God Book like a giant whale sucking water, and then the four dark seeds began to merge with each other.
All this happened in a flash, but it also seemed to last a long time. Wang Xuan could sense the fusion of the four dark seeds in his right hand, and the continuous infestation of the dark energy around him.
As the dark seeds merged, his body and the four dark seeds seemed to replace the function of the Giant God's Book, allowing the existence hidden at the end of the dark abyss to descend into this world with the help of his body and the four dark seeds.
A blurry black shadow appeared, like a giant hand as big as the sky, rising from below, and suddenly slapped the black mountain in the distance.
A terrifying sound like the collapse of the sky and the crack of the earth sounded, and the black mountain that had risen several thousand meters was slapped down again.
Wang Xuan felt a bang in his mind, and his blood surged. The four dark seeds in his right hand suddenly merged together with the vibration, forming an incomplete black cocoon, which seemed to be missing a small half.
Wang Xuan understood that according to the "Seven Deadly Sins", there should be a total of seven dark seeds, but now the Book of the Giant God suddenly shattered, and the Supreme Being was also forced to do nothing. Although there were still three dark seeds missing, the four dark seeds at the moment could only begin to merge first, forming an incomplete black cocoon.
As the black cocoon was completed, a faint will appeared inside, and a slight sigh sounded in Wang Xuan's mind.
Wang Xuan's heart was shocked, and he suddenly understood.
"Are you the Lord of the Pentagram?"
Suddenly, he understood a lot. Using the Book of the Giant God to summon this existence will eventually produce seven dark seeds. The seven dark seeds can be fused into a complete black cocoon, and the Lord of the Pentagram will get rid of the previous shackles and be born in the black cocoon.
"Not bad..."
Wang Xuan sensed that this vague consciousness really responded to him.
"You... are lucky..."
"I didn't expect... this situation would happen..."
This vague consciousness strengthened slightly and continued to sound in Wang Xuan's mind, with a hint of unwillingness.
Wang Xuan understood that this should be because the seven dark seeds were not gathered together, and now only four were fused together. The soul consciousness of the Lord of the Pentagram was equivalent to being forced to be born in this incomplete black cocoon in advance before it was complete. According to the other party's consciousness, this seemed to be beneficial to him, so he said that he was lucky.
Although Wang Xuan did not say it, a slight smile suddenly sounded in his mind again.
"You are very smart... your guesses are all correct..." Obviously, the other party sensed his guess.
"There are only four soul seeds now... My soul is incomplete, and I still need you... Otherwise, you would have died when I was born..."
"So you... are lucky..."
Wang Xuan felt that his soul consciousness was sealed in his body the moment the black cocoon was born. He could not sense the situation outside, and could only sense that there was an incomplete black cocoon in front of him. The sound inside the black cocoon was gradually getting stronger. At this time, he vaguely felt that the sound seemed to be feminine. Could it be that the master of the pentagram was actually a woman?
"Its name includes the womb of the underworld...womb...yes, why didn't I think of it, she should be a woman, a goddess?"
"No need to guess...for us...there is no difference between men and women...don't use your low-level thinking limitations to consider...we exist..."
"Human...I will help you become stronger, and you also need to gather three soul seeds for me again...to make me complete..."
Wang Xuan responded immediately: "You said you need me now, so you didn't kill me. It turns out that you want me to help you gather the remaining three soul seeds, but if I gather them for you, you no longer need me and will kill me immediately. Do you think I will help you in this situation?"
He really didn't understand the thoughts of the Pentagram Lord. If it were an ordinary person, he would not say it even if he had this idea in his heart, but she said it bluntly. Since he knew her true thoughts, Wang Xuan would not help her anyway, which made Wang Xuan very curious about the thoughts of the Pentagram Lord.
"Humans... I've told you not to think about me with your limited thinking... Your life is not important to me... How could I have the idea of... wanting to kill you..."
Wang Xuan was confused. Didn't she just say that if the seven soul seeds were gathered, she would die? Why did she say that again now?
"You understand... wrong..."
"Once the seven soul seeds are gathered and integrated... your body and soul cannot withstand my birth... and you will die..."
Wang Xuan understood that what the Pentagram Lord wanted to express was not that he wanted to kill him, but that he could not withstand the birth of her with the seven soul seeds gathered and a complete soul, and would die the moment she was born. For a being like her, she would not deliberately target Wang Xuan to kill him.
"I see, but if I help you gather the remaining three soul seeds, your soul will be complete, but I will still die, right?"
"Gathering the remaining soul seeds now... I don't need to rely on your body anymore... So... you won't die..."
Hearing the other party's words, Wang Xuan was half-believing and half-doubting, and said: "Then how should I gather the remaining three soul seeds next?"
"My Giant God Book has been broken... I can no longer obtain the remaining soul seeds through the contract... I can only seize them, but you are too weak now... You can't help me..."
"You go to the Holy Mountain... Improve yourself..."
"Holy Mountain? Is it the big black mountain?"
"Yes, enter there... Naturally understand..."
As this consciousness disappeared, Wang Xuan's soul consciousness sensed that the darkness around him was slowly fading, and he regained control of his body. Looking around, whether it was the Wheel King, the Ice Queen, the Magic Emperor, or the strong men of various civilizations, they all disappeared, and only their group of people remained in the original place.
Everyone's face was filled with fear. They were just controlled by an invisible force like Wang Xuan, unable to perceive anything outside. It was not until this moment that they suddenly recovered and gained control of their bodies.
"What happened just now?" Everyone's faces showed fear and confusion. They knew nothing about what had just happened.
Gu Sheng slowly climbed up from the ground, his face pale. In his mind, he still saw the master of "Shanjian City", Emperor Shi, and then the surroundings were swallowed by darkness. He lost all consciousness. When he woke up, he found that they were still there, but Emperor Shi and other powerful people had disappeared.
"Are those civilization masters dead?" Wang Xuan secretly asked the master of the pentagram hidden in the black cocoon on his right hand.
"No... The rules of this building have changed... We... For the rules... If there is an invading virus... it will be triggered immediately..."
Wang Xuan was thoughtful. Those civilization masters who entered the outer domain did not die. Judging from the current situation, they should have all escaped. It seems that his danger has not been eliminated.
"How should I call you?"
"Call me?"
This consciousness paused slightly before continuing to sound.
"I am Ming... You can call me Ming..."
"Ming..." Wang Xuan only then knew the real name of the Lord of the Pentagram.
Everyone counted the casualties. There were 54 people still alive, except Wang Xuan and Gu Sheng. This means that 26 of the 80 Huangquan Gods who entered here died.
"Let's go, let's go to the Sacred Mountain." Wang Xuan looked at everyone and pointed to the Black Mountain in the distance. According to Ming, the real name of this Black Mountain is the Sacred Mountain. Entering the Sacred Mountain can improve your strength.
"Sacred Mountain?" Everyone was stunned. Zhao Lei looked at Wang Xuan and said, "You said this Black Mountain is called the Sacred Mountain?"
Wang Xuan nodded and said, "Yes, entering the Sacred Mountain may give you a chance."
Gu Sheng suddenly seemed to think of something and said, "Is this the Sacred Mountain? Legend has it that the ultimate secret of this universe is hidden in the Sacred Mountain. Obtaining this secret can transcend the dimension of this universe, break through the beast, become an immortal god, and enter a higher level world."
Hearing what Gu Sheng said, everyone's eyes widened. This big black mountain actually has such benefits?
"No, since the Sacred Mountain hides such a secret, the Lords of Civilization will definitely not let it go. Think about it, these Lords of Civilization have disappeared, where did they go? Did they escape? Or did they also go to the Sacred Mountain?" Ning Chuan, who was among the crowd, couldn't help but speak.
"Ningchuan's words make sense." Ying Tian said, "We have to be on guard. We don't know what happened just now, but since we are heading to the Holy Mountain, we may run into them."
Wang Xuan looked at Gu Sheng and said, "Since you know the Holy Mountain, those civilization masters should also know it. Why didn't they enter the outer domain to look for the Holy Mountain?"
Gu Sheng shook his head and said, "Although the legend says so, you can't find the so-called Holy Mountain in the outer domain. It's strange this time. If this Black Mountain is really the Holy Mountain, it's equivalent to us just breaking in and encountering the Holy Mountain."
He looked at Wang Xuan and said, "It seems that we are lucky."
Zhang Haofei said, "It seems that we are all the chosen ones, so those civilization masters can't find the Holy Mountain when they enter, and we just come in and encounter it, but now it's troublesome. What if these old guys know that this is the Holy Mountain and enter first to find the great secret of the universe? We have to hurry up."
Gu Sheng said, "The problem now is that we can't be sure that the Black Mountain is the legendary Holy Mountain. Wang Xuan, how did you confirm it?"
Wang Xuan understood that Ming said that it was the Holy Mountain, and he must be right, but how to explain it to Gu Sheng? The consciousness of Ming, one of the three supreme beings represented by the three legendary books of the giant god, is in his body?
"My feeling is not wrong, let's go." Wang Xuan did not explain too much, but walked towards the direction of the Black Mountain.
Seeing that he did not explain, Gu Sheng understood that he must have some secrets, but now there were many people, he did not want to say more, so he did not ask any more questions, but followed Wang Xuan forward.
A group of people quickly left here and headed towards the Black Mountain. Now it was quiet all around. Except for them, no outsiders could be seen, and no monsters were hidden around, which made them feel a little relieved.
The next journey was unexpectedly smooth. Everyone did not suffer any attacks, but as they got closer, everyone's strength was declining. Now everyone has regressed to the level of one-step beast transformation. If they go down, they will return to the level of hatching beasts.
The 10,000-meter-high Black Mountain finally appeared in front of everyone.
Around this Black Mountain, there are a large number of transparent giant jellyfish floating. These jellyfish can float around, slowly floating and sinking, and look very graceful.
Wang Xuan saw that the ground had changed from thick fallen leaves to black charcoal-like soil. The glowing trees around him ended here. The Black Mountain covered a vast area and was more than 10,000 meters high. Everyone standing in front of it felt their own insignificance.
"This cliff looks very steep... Are we going to climb it next?" Zhang Haofei glanced at Wang Xuan, Zhao Lei and others with a questioning look.
The big secret that Gu Sheng just said made him excited, but looking at this pitch-black giant mountain now, he really didn't believe that such a black mountain could hide any ultimate secret of the universe.
Wang Xuan was not in a hurry, but secretly asked Ming: "Ming, I have reached the sacred mountain, what should I do next?"
"Climb up, and when you can reach the top of the mountain... you will naturally understand... everything..."
Listening to Ming's response, Wang Xuan was stunned, is it that simple?
