Chapter 727 Container and Projection

"A god like me, although he has 'authority', has great power."

"But after all, it is restricted by the 'rules' and cannot appear in the world."

"You can only use the method of 'projection' to temporarily walk in the world, influence living beings, and thus continue yourself."

"And 'projection' is divided into two methods."

"The first method is to directly open a channel and forcibly lower the 'projection', which is convenient and quick;"

"The only limitation is that breaking the rules requires a lot of consumption. Normally, only gods with high status and sufficient power can use it."

"The second method is to use the 'container' to select a target like you and slowly lower the 'projection';"

"There are many restrictions and problems can easily occur, but the consumption is almost negligible."

"The more 'container' that is in line with the power of 'projection', the more 'excellent' it is, and the best among them is qualified to be called the 'perfect container'."

After finishing his words, the Black Mist Giant paused for a moment, as if waiting for Lu Li's reaction.

The latter pondered for a moment and nodded to himself:

"Got it, it sounds like I'm quite good."

"So next question, who are the seven children of Abhoth?"

This time, before the black fog giant could speak, the black-green substance known as Abhos suddenly spoke out and screamed excitedly:

"The demon god who controls the seven primitive powers...the Holy Lord you call him!"

"All their power comes from me, I created them!"

"But they, they imprisoned me here, completely cutting off my connection with the world!"

"If the connection between the gods and the mortal world is interrupted, will they die?" Lu Li looked at Abhos curiously:

"But I think you seem to be in good condition, and you can still jump and bang."

As the exchange deepened, Lu Li found that the noise that gave him a headache had almost disappeared, and his tone was no longer as serious as before.

Become playful.

"Then you don't know what he looked like before." The Black Mist Giant, who calls himself Yong Ye, took over the conversation and said jokingly:

"He was incredible back then. He held the power of blasphemy and darkness, and could even compete head-on with the divine!"

"Oh, I see..." Lu Li nodded and asked the last question:

"Then why can I easily deal with seven demon gods?"

Hearing this, the Black Mist Giant suddenly fell silent, no longer giving an immediate answer like before.

After a while, he replied in a low voice:

"Because I can make you 'disguise' as a 'sacred vessel', thereby gaining the power to resist 'blasphemy'."

Seeing that Lu Li seemed to be thinking about the deeper meaning, the black mist giant Yong Ye urged anxiously:

"I won't hurt you."

"You must know that you are the perfect container that I finally found. If something happens to you, I will also suffer huge losses."

"You haven't completely lifted the 'seal' yet?" Lu Li was keenly aware of the hidden meaning behind his words and hit the nail on the head.

Yongye paused for a long time and said vaguely:

"Whether my 'seal' is lifted or not actually doesn't have much impact on you."

"Because no matter what kind of gods they are, they cannot appear in the world. The only ones that can come are 'projections'."

“Give me an example in a way you can understand.”

"It's like ants can crawl on thin paper, but humans can break the paper with one foot."

"Whether I am still sealed is actually a question of whether my legs are still bound by ropes."

"This does not stop me from waving my arms and casting projections on the paper."

"I understand." Lu Li raised his eyebrows:

"So in order to make your connection with the world closer, I must continue to become stronger in order to better meet the standard of a 'perfect container'."

"That's right." Yong Ye's slightly impatient tone revealed a deep sense of joy, as if the hard-working teacher had finally taught the stupid student a lesson.

However, Lu Li changed the subject:

"It seems that from beginning to end I am working for you and taking risks for you."

"Then what benefit can I get from this?"

Yongye seemed to be prepared for this and quickly replied:

"You can become stronger!"

"In order to ensure the stability of the perfect container, I need you to be extremely powerful!"

"Isn't this what you're after?"

"Indeed." Lu Li nodded with deep approval:

"If I guess correctly, the power you gave me should be the innate ability of [Soul Swallowing]."

"Then why didn't you communicate with me before?"

"With your clear guidance, I will become stronger even faster."

Yongye let out a chuckle,

"I couldn't communicate with you before because your power was too weak."

"After you swallow Abhos, I may be able to communicate with you directly in the mortal world."

"Okay, I also want to become stronger." Lu Li grinned and showed a happy smile.

He looked at the black and green spiked ball that was still inflated, and asked casually:

"Then his current state is also a projection?"

"No, he is the true body." Yongye smiled again in his words, speaking metaphorically with a hint of aggression:

"Ants can also eat humans, as long as humans cannot resist."

"You devour him in this consciousness space first, and then we go out and deal with his projection."

"Hey, this is so cute!" Lu Li happily leaned towards the black and green spiked ball.

The latter saw this, and the spikes on its body stretched and wriggled, as if it could attack at any time.

Yongye seemed to be worried that Lu Li would retreat, and added:

"Don't worry, I'm here, he can't hurt you."

"Can the 'projection' also affect the 'body'?" Lu Li deliberately slowed down his pace and turned back curiously.

However, Yongye did not answer his question directly.

He just said vaguely:

"Then you have to thank his seven good children."

"If his body is not weakened so badly, you, a little ant, really can't hurt his fur at all."

Lu Li didn't care about Yongye's irrelevant answer, but continued to ask:

"Then he is at least a god. Can I bear to eat him?"

"Of course I can't bear it." Yongye smiled:

"But I will help you save his power, and then feed it to you little by little."

"I understand." Lu Li turned his head back and continued to move forward.

Abhos noticed that the young man seemed to really intend to act according to Yongye's instructions, and immediately screamed anxiously:

"How can you be so stupid? Don't you know that Yongye is lying to you?!"

"What he said was to make you stronger so as to strengthen his connection with the world, but he actually wanted to..."

Before Abhos finished speaking, Lu Li directly activated [Soul Devouring].

In the space of the consciousness body filled with gray haze, black mist violently surged out of the young man's body, turning into thousands of black threads, fiercely piercing the squirming black and green matter!

The spikes on the surface of Abhos did not play any defensive role, like a deflated balloon, it quickly shrank.
