Chapter 495 Backtracking
The fog was thick.
The whole place was covered with white.
Even the sunlight could not shine in, and the whole world seemed a little gloomy and dark.
Wei Tao walked and walked, and he stopped unconsciously.
In front of him, the fog was dissipating quickly.
Even the empty wilderness changed its appearance.
Instead, there was a magnificent palace, standing in front of him without any sign.
Just like before, his perception had "double images" again.
On one side was the magnificent palace.
On the other side was the wilderness filled with white fog.
The two seemed to overlap completely, but they were clearly separated, which gave him a very boring experience.
The Void Eye monk quickly discovered his fault and immediately formed a circle to protect the area tightly.
Even the golden armored Taoist soldiers cruising in the distance were quickly recalled by Mr. Ye, and a tight defense line with three layers inside and three layers outside was set up at the fastest speed.
Wei Tao watched all this happen, but he focused most of his attention on the palace.
Accompanied by a low and hollow voice, the door of the palace was slowly opened.
The interior was empty, only the throne in the deepest part was emitting a cold light.
There was also a looming figure shrouded in a veil of mist, slowly getting up from the seat and casting a curious look outside the palace door.
"On you, there are various spiritual meanings that seem to come from the depths of the void outside the sky, which makes me feel extremely threatened.
But in addition to that, it seems to contain a familiar breath that makes me feel very kind. It seems to be very important to me, but I can't remember where this familiar breath comes from."
"So, perhaps through your experience, you can give me more inspiration and let me find my past memories."
The illusory figure said slowly, and walked down from the throne step by step.
Then disappeared silently.
Listening to her talk, it should be a woman.
It could also be a man with a gentle and delicate voice.
But for Wei Tao, whether it is a woman or a man, it doesn't really matter.
Even if it is a male and female demon, he likes it the same.
After all, food does not need to distinguish between genders.
Nutrition and deliciousness are the most important requirements.
Especially in Wei Tao's perception, the other party is a pure true soul body that cannot be purer.
It is more mouth-watering than precious soul crystals.
So, no matter what the Zerg Mother Goddess appears in front of him, he is happy with her.
Wei Tao concentrated and held his breath, and walked straight up along the golden steps in front of the hall.
He pushed open the door of the main hall and squeezed his ferocious body in.
As for the possible dangers inside.
With his current realm and strength, he is indeed not at the height of the True Lord.
Perhaps he is also not the opponent of the moon beast.
But if he really faces the Zerg Mother Goddess who pretends to be a ghost, both sides will fight a life and death battle without reservation, and the final outcome is really uncertain.
Inside the palace, the ground is covered with white jade, which emits a soft and moist light.
Something seems to be burning in the hall, and the curling green smoke rises slowly, exuding a refreshing and elegant fragrance.
Just getting close and taking a sniff can make people feel relaxed and happy, and even their true spirits and souls seem to be relaxed and happy.
Wei Tao slowly moved forward and stood near the throne where the Zerg Mother Goddess had just been.
He remained silent and carefully observed a green lamp behind the seat.
The faint flame burned quietly, which immediately attracted all his attention.
Wei Tao stretched out his hand and waved it in front of him, stirring the green smoke to speed up the dissipation, concentrating his mind to perceive deeply.
He always felt that something seemed to be wrong.
There was also a faint sadness in his heart.
Lamenting the transience of life and the impermanence of life and death.
This feeling became stronger and stronger, and Wei Tao couldn't help but feel a little irritable.
Under normal circumstances, he didn't like to get stuck in a dead end.
He didn't like to go around in circles, and only liked to solve problems in a simple and rough way.
But sometimes, he thought he was a boring and persistent person.
When he first started practicing martial arts, he could endure the headache and stare at the messy Xiyue Atlas all night.
Later, he could stay awake for months to think about a certain technique, with his mind occupied by various deductions.
Just like now, in the absurd and illusory silence, he was concentrating on observing the green lamp in front of him, just because they looked vaguely familiar, but he couldn't find their source for a while.
Time passed by little by little.
Perhaps here, time has lost its original meaning.
Only the green lamp flame burned quietly, as if it could travel through the long river of time and space, looking through the present from the distant past, and whether it could reflect the future.
Wei Tao felt a little dizzy, so he picked up the green lamp and stuffed it directly into his mouth.
There was a crisp sound.
The sharp fangs closed suddenly.
The source of his anxiety and troubles was directly torn into pieces of different sizes, and then quickly chopped and ground by sharp teeth.
Boom! ! !
The scene in front of him changed again.
The magnificent palace disappeared in an instant.
Wei Tao frowned slightly and continued to watch.
In the depths of his eyes, he reflected a series of bizarre scenes, which made him hold his breath and concentrate, and he could not help but gather all his thoughts.
"It turns out that the place where the gods fell is the tomb of the immortal king of the real world."
"She finally came to the place where the moon beast fell to its death, and chose to die quietly here."
Wei Tao sighed lowly and witnessed the entire death process of a true king.
Her true soul has collapsed and broken, but her body still maintains strong vitality. However, as time continues to pass, it will eventually decay and decay little by little, until it merges with this world.
The true soul turned into a spirit, lingering in the void for a long time and never dissipating.
The physical body merges into the Land of God's Fall, turning this place into a forbidden area of life.
However, until this moment, Wei Tao had not found the connection between the True Realm Immortal Lord and the Zerg Mother Goddess.
Suddenly, a scene came into his sight.
He couldn't help but squint his eyes, and his pupils suddenly shrank.
He saw different kinds of bugs.
They are not the insect-men who have wisdom and can borrow the spiritual will of heaven and earth, but the real insects and ants that can be seen everywhere.
They rummage through the soil in search of edible food to sustain their population.
The spiritual energy, which was so strong that it was as strong as the substance, suppressed it, causing other large animals to die suddenly. Those who survived by chance also avoided this place, but it was unable to have a fatal effect on these bugs, so they multiplied and grew stronger here. .
He even gradually developed spiritual wisdom, learned to perceive and borrow spiritual meaning, and opened up a unique path of practice.
Even the form is gradually breaking away from the insect body, and is getting closer and closer to the human form.
When Wei Tao saw this, he had roughly guessed why the insectoids could appear here.
The corpses of the Moon Beast and the True Lord were integrated into the land where the Gods fell, and were the main source of food for these Zerg populations.
It's as if an invisible hand gently moved the evolutionary tree of these insects and turned them in a completely different direction.
During this process, the Zerg race in the Land of God’s Fall also began to continuously differentiate.
Among them, the group that is more suitable for accepting spiritual senses quickly surpasses other ordinary insect groups, and they are also the ancestors of later bloodline nobles such as Spirit Butterfly.
Then, the war broke out.
In order to control the Land of the Gods, and to compete for who is the most noble orthodoxy of the spiritual blood inheritance, extremely fierce battles began between multiple large ethnic groups.
The killing was so bloody that there were corpses everywhere. Many noble bloodlines suffered heavy losses, and even their clans were wiped out.
Wei Tao even saw the Dao Mantis clan, as vassals of the Spirit Butterfly nobles, being used as cannon fodder on the battlefield.
Illusive scenes flashed by quickly.
As the Zerg civil war intensified, it promoted the fusion of different bloodlines, and even made their perception of spirituality more detailed and in-depth, and their spiritual intelligence and strength also increased step by step.
Because dead Zerg warriors are also food.
Everyone contains the spiritual meaning of heaven and earth.
By eating each other back and forth, taking the essence and discarding the dross, the goal of evolution was actually achieved in this way.
At this moment, the Zerg Mother Goddess appeared.
It seemed to be born from the will of the swarm, but it never showed its physical form. It only issued an oracle to identify the guardian clan, and ordered all other clans to move out of the land of the gods and choose suitable habitat areas.
This ended the long-lasting Zerg civil war and formed the power structure of the Zerg that continues to this day.
The last scene fades away quietly.
Wei Tao's eyes flashed and he found that he had returned to the palace.
The old green lantern disappeared.
The slender figure covered with gauze appeared on the throne again.
"What do you see?"
She opened her red lips and asked slowly.
"I saw a whale fall and all things come to life..."
Wei Tao just said something, but remained silent without any warning.
He quietly looked at the illusory figure, and looked into the eyes that were like deep pools under the gauze, "Before I start telling you, I hope to know your name and take a look at your face hidden by the veil."
"My name, my face..."
She took off the gauze little by little, revealing a somewhat blurry face.
"I may disappoint you. From the time I was born with spiritual intelligence, until now, although some fragments of consciousness appear in my heart from time to time, I can't remember where I came from at all, so I don't know my own identity. The name also makes it impossible to really determine what one looks like.”
Wei Tao fell silent, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind.
The Mother Goddess of the Zerg in front of her is most likely the remnant of the true spirit of that true king.
Thinking further, the invisible big hand quietly moved, and various Zerg species appeared in the Land of God's Fall, and then began a journey of spiritual wisdom and evolution. Perhaps it was also the result of the guidance of a ray of true spirit's residual thoughts.
Later, a civil war broke out among the Zerg tribe, and nobles of different bloodlines merged due to the war. On this basis, the will of the Mother Goddess was born, which is also highly likely to be inseparable from the true soul's residual thoughts.
In addition, there is the existence of the Lord of the Star Ring, and the "dream" he got after that life-and-death confrontation, which seems to be related to everything in front of him.
At this moment, Wei Tao finally fully understood why the Zerg Mother Goddess could sense a familiar and friendly aura from him after entering the Land of God's Fall.
After all, the Lord of the Star Ring was once the maid of the True Lord, and was most likely responsible for transmitting memories to her and ultimately "awakening" her.
But here's the problem.
No one of them thought that after the True Lord's true spirit collapsed and his body was destroyed, the Star Ring Realm Lord had not yet arrived to "wake him up" before he ushered in a new round of destruction and disaster, and was severely injured and fell into a deep sleep.
When the Star Ring Lord finally survived the destruction and was ready to slowly recover himself, because of a gentle and kind woman, the great magician Zhang Ji lost his childhood sweetheart Bai Yueguang, which led to crazy revenge at all costs.
Not only did the Star Ring Lord delay the recovery time, but he even died in the end.
Wei Tao strung the beads together and roughly pieced together a guess in his mind.
If his guess is correct, it is really surprising.
He also has a deeper understanding of the methods of the True Realm Immortal Lord.
"What is the saying that one whale falls and all things come to life?"
"Have you seen my past from the lonely fire of the green lamp? Do you know where I came from?"
"Why don't you respond? We don't have much time left."
"Although I don't know what the realm master means, the realm master of the void demon has already noticed my existence.
So I need to leave you temporarily. When I regain some strength, I will come back again.
I hope that by then, you can give me an accurate and detailed answer, so that I can truly recognize myself and find the lost past."
She asked two more questions in succession, but her voice gradually became lower until there was no sound.
Almost at the same time.
As the ethereal voice disappeared, the magnificent palace quickly turned into nothingness, and only the misty white fog enveloped the world, and returned to the depths of the wilderness of the Land of God's Fall.
"Your Highness, Your Highness!"
Wei Tao opened his eyes, his mental consciousness was still a little dazed.
A worried whisper came from his ears, and the tempting smell of food penetrated into his nose at the same time.
Crack!
He moved his three tails and two claws at the same time, grabbing a large number of Zerg Guardian warriors, including the two Dao soldiers who were unable to dodge, and then put them all into his mouth, chewed them a few times, and swallowed them into his stomach.
After eating a mouthful, he was still not satisfied, so Wei Tao started eating in batches to replenish the consumption just now.
Mr. Ye exhaled a long breath of turbid air, and his frown also relaxed at this time.
He watched the two golden armored Dao soldiers being eaten, not only did he not stop them, but he even waved his hand to summon a whole team of Dao soldiers and sent them to Wei Tao's mouth.
"Why didn't I realize that he was a good person before?"
"If this continues, I'm a little embarrassed to do it to him."
Wei Tao swallowed the last bite of food and slowly closed his eyes with satisfaction.
The team continued to set off and headed towards the depths of the God's Falling Land.
Chief Li came to Mr. Ye, "Did you find anything strange during that period just now?"
"Did Chief Li notice it too?"
Mr. Ye thought slowly and said, "Just when the Holy Spirit stopped, I vaguely sensed a spiritual fluctuation, but I couldn't accurately capture the other party immediately. When I unraveled the clues, it disappeared without a trace, as if it had never appeared."
At this point, he looked back, "Thanks to the warning of the Holy Spirit, if it weren't for it, I might not even have noticed the abnormality that just appeared."
The sixth chief frowned, with some worry between his brows, "The further we go, the thicker the fog that interferes with perception will be. If the other party appears again with hostility, I'm afraid that these little guys under my command will be in trouble."
"Chief Li, don't worry."
Mr. Ye coughed lightly and took out a black flag from his arms, "I have memorized that spiritual fluctuation. If it doesn't come, it's fine. If it dares to come, it must be made to come and never return."
Wei Tao was still stuffing soul crystals into his mouth as an indispensable snack after dinner.
However, at the moment when the black flag was taken out, he even forgot to chew and swallow.
All eyes were attracted by the flag, and even the soul crystal in his mouth instantly lost its original sweet taste.
The head of the sixth department took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, and the worry between his brows gradually subsided.
He stretched out his hand and brushed the white mist in front of him, "When I went to the headquarters last time, I heard that the president seemed to have broken through the current realm and reached a more mysterious level?"
Mr. Ye put away the black flag and looked up at the sky shrouded in fog. His expression became a little complicated at this moment.
"The president could indeed break through that barrier at that time, but he retreated at the last moment."
"Retreat?"
The head of the sixth department was full of doubts, "Please forgive my ignorance, sir, but I can't figure out why the president retreated. Is it related to the mission we are carrying out this time?"
Mr. Ye was silent for a long time, and did not respond directly, but sighed faintly.
"The president once said that life and death cycle, birth, existence, decay and emptiness, everything is like a cycle of cause and effect.
If you can't jump out of the law that seems to exist, you can only sink into it until you fall into the dark nothingness where nothing exists."
"So from ancient times to now, those great practitioners have to pursue longevity and transcendence.
But whether it was the ancient gods who were in chaos at the beginning, or the holy spirits who had their own magical powers, or the giants who once dominated one side, their bodies were damaged and their true spirits were destroyed in the destruction. Almost no one could escape the disaster."
"What's more terrifying is that as time goes by, the Great Destruction seems to come more and more frequently, and the strength level of the affected extraordinary people is also showing a trend of getting lower and lower.
From the ancient gods and holy spirits in ancient times, to the large number of realm masters and celestial beings who died in the last Great Destruction, there are even signs that it has spread to the earthly immortals.
Perhaps when the next destruction disaster comes, the entire dark void and the heavenly realms, the immortals and cultivators will be wiped out, and there will be no extraordinary power and no space for extraordinary creatures to survive."
Mr. Ye retracted his gaze and shook his head slowly, "The president sensed the hidden malice when he was about to break through, so he took the step back.
Since then, the president began to look for clues about the destruction of the real world everywhere, trying to find the secrets hidden by the long river of time."
The head of the sixth department sighed, "In this case, perhaps in the near future, if the next destruction disaster really comes, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to escape the bad luck."
