Chapter 583 Breaking

In front of him was a long stone staircase that seemed to have no end.

But behind him was nothing.

No color, no sound.

It was a completely empty and void.

The inside was filled with a decayed and gray atmosphere, as if it had gradually lost all its life and vitality under the scouring of time.

It gave people the feeling of a dark cage.

And it was a death cell that all living beings could hardly escape from.

Wei Tao stretched out a few tentacles and immersed them in it to try to sense it.

Just as he crossed the steps that were about to disappear, all the tentacles were suddenly eroded by the power of annihilation and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

This feeling made him recall the battle with Ji Luo, when he first officially came into contact with the power of nothingness and annihilation.

But compared with the situation behind him, the power of annihilation that Ji Luo borrowed was so childish that it was like a trick played by a child.

The gap between the two was so big that it was simply impossible to measure the distance.

The blood network acupoints kept expanding and contracting, causing the "liquid silk thread" to accelerate its operation, swallowing the power of annihilation and circulating around the body.

Finally, he was able to stabilize his body and take another step forward, and continue to move forward before the stone steps he was standing on disappeared, thus escaping the great danger that was about to come.

After crossing hundreds of stone steps in a row, Wei Tao's heart suddenly moved, and he turned his head and looked back again.

Through the darkness that seemed to swallow everything, he saw a twisted and chaotic colorful ribbon.

It seemed to be far away in the sky, but it seemed to be right in front of him.

Perhaps in the next moment, it would be able to cross the vast darkness and appear silently beside him.

And as the ribbon fluttered and rotated, circles of ripples quietly spread out.

The empty space behind him was reflected in a hazy way, showing its beauty.

"This is not a colorful ribbon, but the ripples of light when the oars pass by."

"I understand. The disappearance of the dilapidated stone steps below is not due to other reasons, but because of the approach of the boatman. The power of the two different supervisors interweaves, which produces such a terrifying effect."

"So, even if I have entered the vortex to hide, that guy still chased me, just like I owe him money and he won't give up until I find and capture me."

"More importantly, with my current level of strength, it is already very difficult to resist the supervisor who may fall into a deep sleep. If I am involved in the qi of the two sides' collision, I am afraid that even with a stronger body, there is no way to escape."

Wei Tao took a deep breath, exhaled heavily, and took another step forward against the oppressive force from all directions, pulling further away from the emptiness and nothingness that spread rapidly from the back.

And the higher he went, the more terrifying the pressure on his body became.

Even with Wei Tao's physical strength, he couldn't help but make a crackling sound, and had to release the second level of combat form to deal with the resistance.

More importantly, the stone steps below disappeared faster and faster, almost catching up with his pace of climbing up.

This forced Wei Tao to speed up again, regardless of the explosive power, while resisting the ubiquitous pressure, and increasing the absorption and swallowing of the power of annihilation.

Time passed little by little.

He didn't know how many steps he climbed up.

He only knew that under this kind of oppression and erosion, his mind was already somewhat inexplicably dazed.

The whole person seemed to have become a thoughtless climbing machine, almost all of his attention was focused on the stone steps under his feet, and the only goal was to keep going up until he reached the top of the stone steps that had no end.

Suddenly, he subconsciously raised his head and looked up at an angle.

There, above the more than 100 stone steps, a faint light also appeared.

It was somewhat similar to the swaying ribbon behind it, but it lay flat in the darkness and motionless, as if it had lost its vitality, and only the power of annihilation and nothingness was still spontaneously dissipating outward.

Wei Tao concentrated and held his breath, and at this moment, he "smelled" the sudden doubling of attraction, coming from the depths of the flat light of annihilation.

If it weren't for his physical body being strong to a certain extent, and his soul being preserved by the fusion of spirit and flesh, he probably wouldn't have been able to reach this place at all, and would have been sealed and imprisoned by the huge oppressive force, unable to climb up any more.

However, as he climbed all the way, under the ubiquitous pressure, the annihilation power he swallowed and absorbed was always forged and tempered, and merged more closely with his spirit and flesh, and even made the strand of "liquid silk thread" bigger and thicker, and silently separated the second night silk.

Then the third, and the fourth.

Until he saw the solidified light of annihilation, the "liquid silk thread" circulating in the blood network acupoints had changed from the initial lonely strand to the current nine strands that came out together, entangled and intertwined.

"There are still the last hundred steps."

"And after going from the first line to the ninth line, the pressure that was unbearable before is no longer so painful, and it is completely within the range that I can bear."

"Thinking further, the feelings along the way are actually endless, just like experiencing an unforgettable retreat and practicing, constantly improving under the guidance of an invisible teacher.

Whether it is the huge pressure or the light of extinction, their purpose does not seem to be to imprison and kill me, but to help me strengthen my body in some way, condense my true spirit, and reach a state where I can blend with it seamlessly."

All kinds of thoughts flashed through Wei Tao's mind, and then he took a heavy step forward and stood on the last long section of stone steps.

Boom!

Taking a step forward, an even more terrifying and violent force suddenly descended, bending his waist in an instant.

At the same time, the light of annihilation, which was even stronger than before, rose up, completely covering the whole person.

Wei Tao didn't even need to devour and absorb it through the attribution of various laws, but it took the initiative to sink into his body, quickly intertwining with the nine "liquid threads", almost indistinguishable from each other.

Click! ! !

Wei Tao wiped away the blood that overflowed from his mouth and nose, and took another step forward.

It landed heavily in the center of the next stone step.

For the first time, the steps looked dilapidated but were extremely strong, leaving a footprint several inches deep on it.

Click!

Click click click!

Wei Tao withstood the pressure and continued to move forward.

The crisp cracking sounds merged into one piece.

The footprints left behind became deeper and deeper, causing the stone steps to begin to crack inch by inch, forming dense patterns that spread rapidly toward the surrounding area.

Even after the emptiness spread from behind, even though the stone steps he once stood on were swallowed up and disappeared, the line of footprints still clearly existed, just like the Vajra of Shattered Void Enlightenment, and the traces left behind are eternal from now on.

The blood network in the body is made up of nine silk threads, big and small, all around the sky.

Wei Tao exerted all his strength, and the Hongmeng Purple Qi surged out from all the acupoints like a torrential wave. It merged with the incoming force of Nirvana faster and faster, driving the nine silk threads to expand and become larger, almost covering the blood network. It's going to burst.

The cycle of life and death is empty.

Driven by the attribution of all dharmas, a mysterious balance is finally reached.

Wei Tao couldn't help but be deeply immersed in it, as if he was having a sweet dream that he didn't want to wake up from.

It wasn't until I reached the end of the long stone steps that I suddenly woke up from my trance.

Bang!

He exerted force suddenly, stepped over the last stone step, and finally stood on the top platform.

Turning around and looking back, the emptiness continued to expand.

Except for the last ten or so steps, the dilapidated stairs that were originally climbing up have completely turned into deathly darkness.

Only one line of footprints that exudes a faint light has not been swallowed up and eliminated by the spreading silence. It is like a sign that Tao will remain forever in the long river of time and space, showing that he has walked through it before. Even after the vicissitudes of time, he can't. Cover and bury it.

Seeing this scene, Wei Tao couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart.

Recalling the figure that I saw boating in the depths of the long river of time and space not long ago.

The line of footprints he stepped on seemed to be the same as the traces left by the other party.

But if you think about it carefully, there is a big difference between the two.

The mysterious person who may be the supervisor shuttled through the waves, leaving behind an almost complete scene. But just now, he had almost exhausted everything. He was exerting all his power, and the blood network orifice was about to burst, but at most it was nothing more. I stepped on a line of footprints and came out.

It has to be said that there is still a visible gap between the two sides.

At least judging from the traces left behind, there is only a difference between a line of footprints and a boat with waves.

Wei Tao gathered his thoughts and focused on the scene in front of him.

Everywhere you look is filled with ruins and scorched black marks.

It was like being struck by lightning, igniting a raging fire and burning everything down.

And at the end of his sight was the lifeless ball of light.

There seems to be a shadow floating in it, looming.

An increasingly strong attraction came from the shadow, constantly driving him into the center of the light of annihilation to see what it was.

Wei Tao held his breath and concentrated, still feeling deeply, when he suddenly heard a soft click, quietly swinging away from the stone steps behind him.

The emptiness and nothingness was still approaching. At this time, it had submerged to the last stone steps, and gradually spread towards the ruins.

"There is no way forward, and there are pursuers behind me. With my current level of strength, I am afraid that I will not be able to withstand the erosion of the light of death, and at the same time, I will not be able to defeat the supervisors who come by boat. So what will happen next? Do it?”

Wei Tao thought in his heart, even with his tempered state of mind, he was in a dilemma at this moment, and it was difficult to make a final decision for a while.

Time passed quietly.

The emptiness and nothingness is swallowing the top step, and the next moment we will actually reach the platform.

"Persimmons need to be pinched softly, so even if there are monitors in front and behind, one can still be alive and come on a boat, while the other is in ruins and showing signs of decay. There is no objection to the choice."

Wei Tao thought in his mind, and before the void and emptiness approached, he took a step forward into the charred ruins.

boom! ! !

The power of annihilation beyond imagination suddenly came.

The thick black scales shattered, and blood mist exploded from the body surface.

Even the blood network of the orifices inside could not withstand such pressure and showed more and more cracks.

At this moment, a cold mechanical voice sounded quietly.

Like a huge wave, it swayed directly in Wei Tao's consciousness.

"Find a suitable body and prepare for testing."

"Suitable body for testing?"

As soon as Wei Tao thought about it, he was almost overwhelmed by the sudden mental shock.

Wow! ! !

The holy fruit of all time was poured into the mouth.

The status bar also manifests void.

Name: Hongmeng Dao Body.

Progress: 100%.

Status: Peak.

Description: The beginning of Hongmeng and the foundation of the universe.

"Whether to consume a gold coin to improve the progress of Hongmeng Taoist practice."

Wei Tao gritted his teeth violently, tried his best to maintain the remaining ray of clarity, and chose yes without hesitation.

Swish!

A gold coin disappeared.

The mysterious aura exploded.

It was as mighty as a huge wave, pouring into the body one after another.

Wei Tao narrowed his eyes suddenly and spurted out a burning blood arrow.

He did not expect that the journey of breaking the limit of the Hongmeng Dao body would change so drastically.

The mysterious aura alone injected into the body has already caused such a painful feeling.

Then when the Hongmeng purple aura and the power of annihilation collide and blend, and the Holy Fruit of Time stretches and stretches the two, it is still unknown what kind of reaction will occur.

Boom!!!

In the dark realm shrouded by the light of annihilation, the charred ruins suddenly became quiet and a thunder exploded.

Unbearable pain came at this moment.

After the heavy scales were broken, the almost indestructible skin began to crack in large pieces.

Countless flesh and blood surged wildly, intertwined and entangled from the cracks, trying to repair the wound.

Then it was torn again without any suspense.

This cycle repeats itself.

It seems to never end.

A large mass of blood gushed out from the corner of his lips, and Wei Tao raised his hand to wipe it off.

But then, more blood mist exploded from all parts of his body, looking like a demon that had just crawled out of the sea of ​​blood.

Since it can't be wiped clean, then just don't wipe it.

As long as you can withstand the oppression and erosion of the light of annihilation and absorb it, then you have nothing to fear even if you consume more blood.

Wei Tao exhaled a breath of turbid air lightly, and his state of mind became calm little by little.

Under the influence of the mysterious breath, all the laws were attributed to the full force, and the power of annihilation was taken back to his body, and it was difficult to incorporate it into one acupoint after another.

The blood net then resonated and repaired the cracks and became more tenacious.

Then the change extended to the torn wound, as if it was reshaping the body bit by bit.

As this process continued, Wei Tao seemed to hear a faint sound of breaking.

In his perception, along with the breaking of the limit of the Hongmeng Dao body, the whole spirit seemed to be constantly rising until it touched the big net woven by countless shackles.

The sound of breaking at this time may be a shackle on the net being broken and broken.

Boom!!!

The last mysterious breath descended.

Bringing a light click.

Although he didn't see anything, in the deepest part of his consciousness, it seemed that something was really torn off, tearing a hole in the large net woven by shackles.

While feeling indescribably relaxed, it seemed to attract something strange, making him feel a splitting headache, as if his head was split in two pieces, and something went deep into it and kept stirring.

There was also an inexplicable depression in his heart, as if something was constantly disturbing and affecting his true spirit.

He couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, and his expression seemed a little confused.

In the status bar, the skill interface.

Name: Hongmeng Dao Body.

Progress: 110.

Status: Breaking the limit.

Description: Hongmeng is just beginning, and the world is turning.

"Do you want to consume a gold coin to improve the progress of Hongmeng Dao Body cultivation."

Wei Tao closed the status bar, and his mind moved slightly.

The nine "liquid threads" in the blood net have disappeared.

Instead, there is a crystal in the Dantian acupoint.

It rotates slowly and is beautiful.

The surface is sparkling, as if the long river of time and space is reflected in it.

"All things return to one, and all laws return to their causes."

Wei Tao sighed softly, and then opened his eyes at this time, reflecting a silent figure in his eyes.

It is unclear whether it is a man or a woman, and it looks blurry, standing in front of him motionlessly.

It seems that even the light of extinction is swallowed and absorbed, creating pure darkness with its body as the center.

The next moment, the figure slowly raised his head and looked at Wei Tao.

The eyes of both sides intertwined and collided, and even the light of extinction could not stop it.

Wei Tao's body slowly sank, and his fists clenched little by little, and he was already on the verge of exploding at any time.

Although there was still a distance.

Although the figure looked unreal.

It was just talking to himself and sighing softly.

But it brought him a considerable degree of pressure.

Even if the Hongmeng Dao body was improved beyond the limit, it was impossible to find the true foundation of the other party.

It was like a deep pool, but it was connected to the bottomless abyss inside, as if it could swallow and destroy everything.

Silently, a slightly hoarse voice sounded in Wei Tao's ears, sounding with a faint sigh of nostalgia, "Seeing you, it seems that time and space are disordered, as if I saw myself at the beginning.

It's a pity that I am no longer myself since then. I have almost lost all my independent will. Even if I was fatally injured later, I couldn't free myself from the confinement of the town."

"Fortunately, you came and finally freed me. Although it was at the cost of complete annihilation, I also think it is worth it."

"Then, from today on, you will take over my existence, suffer endless shackles and torture, until you completely lose yourself..."

The faint sigh gradually faded away.

The illusory figure that was bright and dark disappeared quietly.

Wei Tao narrowed his eyes suddenly, and found that he had actually passed through the ruins and stood in the center of the charred platform.

It seemed that the unbearable pain just now, the strange and illusory figure he saw, and everything he heard were just a dream.

Now that the dream is awake, everything has returned to the starting point.

There was only a cross-legged figure in front of him. Although he was wearing a set of heavy armor, he looked like a sculpture that had been washed away by the long years and was about to collapse and break.

"Lose yourself and take over existence?"

"Is it this corpse talking to me?"

"I don't know what he is mumbling about. The Riddler deserves to die."

Wei Tao slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, watching the corpse quietly turn into ashes and dissipate, leaving only a set of armor falling to the ground, and he couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

His reaction seemed a little slow.

He should have eaten the opponent as soon as he found him, at least he wouldn't waste it like now.

But...

Wei Tao turned his eyes away from the armor and looked around at the charred ruins.

He suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of urgency in his heart.

After all, the nothingness and annihilation were still spreading.

If he moved a little slower, he might not be able to eat up the armor and the ruins, and accumulate enough energy for the upcoming battle or escape.
