Chapter 236: The Execution Form of the [Devil Executioner]
Following the bloody red dot, it slowly approached the green "lightless land".
In the darkness, there was a sound of footsteps.
"Ji!"
The mice were exploring the way ahead of Chen Ye, connecting the vision picture covered by the bloody curtain through resonance and consciousness.
Passing through the winding dark cave, stepping forward towards the uneven steps above.
The closer to the "lightless land", the darker the picture.
Even if the [Demon Mouse] has extraordinary night vision, the visual range provided can only see the general outline within a dozen meters.
If you want to see the details clearly, you have to get very close to the front.
Only a few meters away from the green "lightless land"...
At this moment, Chen Ye's footsteps stopped here, and a deep cave appeared in front of him.
"Is this another [lightless land]?"
Chen Ye murmured, looking inside with the pupil of luck.
In the darkness, the white mist lingering around the cave entrance was constantly stained with a layer of dark gray-black.
There was a faint scarlet flowing in the depths.
But those bloodstains seemed to have dried up long ago, with only traces lingering, and the activity was not obvious.
There was a faint fishy smell in the air, as if there were corpses!
A lot of corpses!
Rotting and stinking inside, emitting a disgusting pungent smell.
"Judging from the surrounding aura, there is probably no particularly big danger. Those lingering blood lights indicate that there has been a bloody history inside, but it did not come towards my own aura. When encountering these dangers, I can usually deal with them."
Chen Ye pondered for a moment, and then decided to go in and take a look.
Passing through the cave entrance, slowly moving forward in the narrow tunnel.
Although it is difficult to provide vision around, even the [Demon Rat] can't see anything at this moment.
But with a strong sense of smell and spiritual mental power, Chen Ye smelled the source of the fishy smell, getting closer and closer to himself.
Faintly, it seemed that there was still the sound of some insects crawling, rustling, and making a faint sound in the darkness.
Just then.
Chen Ye passed through the tunnel and suddenly felt that the space around him seemed to be suddenly widened.
The faint dark lamp, dotted above the cave in this underground space, illuminated the outlines of nearby objects.
At this moment, on a huge altar, countless rotten corpses stood on it in strange postures, like sculptures.
Chen Ye's pupils shrank slightly.
This altar has at least thousands of such sculptures, standing in a terrifying posture, motionless.
The source of the fishy smell is these sculptures!
As a gust of cold wind blew, it seemed that there was also a cold touch like sticking to the skin of the dead, along Chen Ye's back, straight into the back of his head!
"This is a living altar..." Chen Ye frowned slightly, and quickly adapted to the changes in the surrounding environment. He walked forward, paced back and forth, and carefully observed these sculptures.
The living altar is a certain evil existence, which uses a large number of living beings for sacrifice to obtain extremely powerful evil power.
Looking at this altar, these standing "sculptures" are all natives who were sacrificed alive!
They are wearing tattered clothes, most of them have human shapes, and only a few have parasitic organs with various animal bones...
These corpses are dead, as if some strange energy evaporated all the water in the body in an instant, just like a standing bacon.
But these bacon have burnt marks on the surface, swollen like a tumor, and suppurated lymphatic fluid flows out from some burnt cracks, with a layer of dirty marks attached to the surface, and it is dried or yellowed by the sun, just like snot magnified dozens of times mixed with rotten meat, sticking to it, emitting a fishy smell.
"Master... this ghost place is so gloomy, why don't we go back?"
A faint voice suddenly sounded from behind Chen Ye.
The gray fog outlined Yuxian's outline. He lowered the Tengu mask on his head, his face was slightly panicked, and he didn't dare to look directly at these terrifying sculptures.
It seemed that something made him feel uneasy and wanted to leave quickly.
Chen Ye raised his eyebrows: "You are a ghost, and you are afraid of these dead things?"
Yuxian widened his eyes and suddenly straightened his chest and said:
"I... I am not afraid!"
"It's just that these things don't look healthy."
"I'm worried about the safety of the master..."
Chen Ye glanced at Yuxian, tutted, and said with a smile:
"If you are afraid, you are afraid, but you are still stubborn?"
The day they first met, this kid had already exposed himself as a coward.
However, if it was the instinct of "seeking benefits and avoiding harm" and it involved life and death, I'm afraid this guy would have fled thousands of miles away, right?
Fortunately, this guy came, so it can be confirmed that the danger nearby is not great.
If he really encountered a fatal danger...
This coward would not just feel uneasy, but would only behave more exaggeratedly.
At this moment.
Chen Ye's eyes fell on these sculptures.
Suddenly, blood-colored text prompts appeared around-
[Tsk tsk, the ancient sacrificial ceremony seems to be conducting some kind of transaction...]
[The ceremony has been over for a long time. ]
[Only the sculpture-like corpse slowly disappeared with the weathering, leaving the traces of the deep darkness and evil that had been there. ]
After remaining in the air for a moment, the words composed of blood quickly dissipated.
Of course, with Chen Ye's strong memory, he quickly memorized these passages.
He frowned, trying to figure out the meaning of these words:
"Ancient ritual...Obviously, this altar is used for living sacrifices!"
"But it's for some kind of deal?"
"Generally speaking, such a large-scale sacrifice is enough for some of the Evil God's followers to use the Evil God's power to create some extremely destructive means."
"However, such a large-scale sacrifice is just for trading?"
"What exactly is the deal?"
While his thoughts were swirling, a ghostly cry from Yu Xian suddenly came from beside him:
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
"Insects, there are insects, they are crawling out of the corpse!"
"How disgusting!"
Following the strange cry, Yu Xian was seen running behind Chen Ye like a cat.
Under the illumination of the dim will-o'-the-wisp, the three-meter-tall giant sculpture not far in front of him had three thick, bulging-like tumors on his right leg, which suddenly dried up and cracked open.
Lines of yellowish turbidity flowed down slowly, as if wrapped in starch.
Bah!
When it fell to the ground, the ball of pulp suddenly squirmed down, with the outline of a long centipede, crawling darkly.
Chen Ye immediately recognized the insect as the same bloody centipede that had appeared when exploring the underground waterways during the "Pollution Paradise" period!
Unexpectedly, I saw them again in the underground world this time!
The centipede sensed Chen Ye's aura and suddenly crawled towards this side!
The surrounding signs of luck suddenly changed dramatically, and the bloody light dormant in the depths of darkness changed drastically, and suddenly turned into the mouthparts of some kind of insect, biting crazily at Chen Ye's neck!
"These rotting remains have little energy left and have not absorbed enough nutrients. So the moment you smell the breath of the living, are you completely impatient?"
Chen Ye narrowed his eyes and subconsciously summoned the [Fire Sun Scroll], wanting to burn these insects with the sacred flame.
The scroll rose into the air.
However, just as the fire was burning halfway, it suddenly went out!
It's like encountering a place without oxygen. Even if there is enough fire source, the flame cannot be lit.
"In a lightless land, there is only darkness. Is it impossible to light up the light?"
Chen Ye's mind moved and he subconsciously looked up at the will-o'-the-wisp.
Will-o'-the-wisps seem to have some special mechanism. Only this strange flame can provide a weak vision in the "lightless land"?
at this time.
The bloody bug has already pounced over, opened its mouth, revealing two ferocious fangs!
"It's really troublesome."
As soon as Chen Ye finished speaking, his right hand suddenly exploded!
A flash of sword light passed by instantly!
The bloody bug flying in mid-air was immediately split into two halves by the scissors and fell to the other side of the ground, completely motionless.
now.
Chen Ye's right hand was no longer a normal person's right hand, but turned into a pair of scissors!
The blade is dark, surrounded by dragon-like patterns, and glows dimly under the illumination of will-o'-the-wisps.
It gives people an unusually sharp and cold feeling.
It seems that this pair of scissors can not only cut off all objects, but also cut off souls!
"As expected of the master, you are indeed amazing!"
Yu Xian's figure had already hid on a huge beam in the dome, half-kneeling on it, cheering his master with his fists, while looking at the scissors with lingering fear...
To be precise, what Yu Xian is afraid of is not the bloody bugs, but the scissors!
After all, as a spirit body, no matter how disgusting the bloody bugs are, they cannot threaten him.
Instead, it was the scissors that made Yu Xian feel a fatal crisis, and he hid so far away in the blink of an eye.
"Is this the execution form of [Demon Executioner]?"
Chen Ye stared at the scissors in his hand, thoughtfully.
When the execution mode is turned on, his limbs, including his mouthparts, can turn into this [Devil Scissors].
If it's a mouthpart... the blade of the scissors can be up to two meters long. Even a [Gluttonous Giant] or a 'monster' within three turns can be separated immediately with the scissors.
But Chen Ye discovered that the execution of [Devil Scissors] was not just as simple as sharpness!
It seems that it can also shorten the soul!
That’s right!
Not only can this pair of scissors cut through any object, it is extremely sharp, but it can also affect spiritual bodies!
The vitality of the blood-colored bug is very tenacious. As a multi-segmented animal, if it is simply cut into two parts, it may grow a new head and turn into two centipedes, and escape separately.
That's why Chen Ye wanted to summon the [Fire Sun Scroll] from the beginning to purify it with sacred flames, which would be more thorough!
However, under the rules of the "Lightless Land", except for will-o'-the-wisps with special mechanisms, ordinary light sources cannot burn, including the sacred flame of the [Scorching Sun] sequence, or characteristics such as [Holy Light Technique].
Chen Ye reacted and immediately used the execution form of [Demon Executioner], initially just to counterattack.
He also didn't expect that when the scissors were applied, the bloody bug would die immediately!
When the bloody bug broke, Chen Ye saw a gray mist dissipating...
The gray fog should be the hazy consciousness of the birth of the bloody bug, but it dissipated at this moment.
This means that the [Devil Scissors] not only cut off the body of the bloody insect, but also cut off its soul, which is why it has a one-hit kill effect!
"So my [Devil Executioner] has this ability?"
Thinking of this, Chen Ye's eyes suddenly lit up!
