Cataclysm King Chapter 276

Chapter 276 [Scarlet Corruption of Active Vessels]

 The ruins of the secret realm.

Just a moment ago, the whole city was boiling with a blood mist that threatened to drown out the sun. In the blink of an eye, it was like ebbing tide.

 The morale of the card masters who were fighting fiercely at the exit of the secret realm was instantly boosted.

The faces of the vampires changed drastically and they were retreating steadily.

With the blood mist exhausted, they will not only be burned when exposed to the sun, but their healing ability will also be greatly limited, and their combat power will be suppressed by most of them.

 At this moment.

Behind him, Count Nicholas, a demigod vampire with a pair of ferocious scarlet wings spread out, looked at the qigong master in front of him, who was wearing a blazing black aura, with a very ugly expression.

 He also sensed the changes on the other side of the blood pool.

 But if you want to return aid, you can't.

 He originally thought that he already had the strength of a demigod, and was confident that no one in the entire federation could stop him.

Unexpectedly, someone who was number one in the world eighty years ago appeared.

 Although he has a suppressive advantage in his position.

 But in terms of realm, he obviously felt that Gong Wu was higher than him.

This guy's martial arts and qigong skills have reached a level that is unbelievable even to his eyes.

 This is a "dark card" that is completely outside of intelligence.

At this moment, he realized that in this game, the layout of the Light Chaser was even better.

Furthermore, the sudden situation on the other side of the blood pool also surprised Count Nicholas.

 Were you found so quickly?

Also, the cybernetic failed to stop the other party for a moment?

At this point, he could also guess that the "Silver Armor of Frederick I" probably had some loopholes that he didn't know about.

 But what he couldn't understand was.

Why is there a "divine thing" belonging to Lord Seiadis hidden in the blood pool on the altar?

 How can there be any human beings who are not affected?

Before he had time to think about it, the reckless man in the distance, with a double-headed tiger with aura lingering in his fist, charged over again alone.

Count Nikolai's face was sharply twitched.

 His strength is indeed unstoppable by any legendary card master in the Federation.

 Similarly, except for him, no other vampire can stop this person.

 The battle situation became anxious again for a while.

 On the other side, in the underground space of the ruins.

Ji Xun frantically absorbed the extraordinary properties in the blood pool.

In the huge space, the blood mist became visibly thinner.

On the side, Nan Jing blinked at this magical scene and said curiously: "Mr. Ji Xun, does your ability to avoid the pollution of faith come from the devil's mark? It's so special. Apart from the [God Thief] sequence, I don't know of any other Sequence can have this ability.”

"Um."

Ji Xun responded casually, noting that she had nothing to hide from Miss Meathead: "My career sequence is a bit special."

Hearing this, Nan Jing did not want to explore what sequence it was. Instead, he was more interested in the origin of the mark. He smiled playfully and said: "I know! I got it from the 407 space adventure with Sister Chujiu, right? Before. Seeing that you two are avoiding talking about it, I have actually guessed it a long time ago."

Ji Xun smiled and nodded: "Yeah."

Speaking of this topic, Nan Jing suddenly asked: "By the way, did you meet Sister Chujiu later?"

Ji Xundao: "Yes."

In any case, chatting did not affect his ability to absorb extraordinary characteristics. He elaborated: "Last time we met again in an extrdimensional space. She also saved me again."

 In "The Battle of Ironforge", thanks to Chujiu, I was able to get the Holy Grail to extend my life.

Listening to Ji Xun talking about a brand new adventure, Nan Jing's smart eyes were filled with joy, and he said with envy and emotion: "Wow, I haven't seen Sister Chujiu for a long time. I miss her so much."

As she spoke, a look of expectation appeared on her slightly round face, and she added: "The three of us haven't met since that "Grand Cemetery Maze". When can we get together?"

 A very simple wish.

 But her current situation is very difficult.

This little girl was expelled from the Royal Court of Oran. Her childhood playmates were also killed, and everything she was familiar with before became very strange.

 Her current situation is similar to that of the ninth day of the lunar month.

 Become stronger silently while walking alone.

 So she also cherishes her friends who are still alive around her.

In the world of this ball-headed lady, apart from Chujiu, the only one who can be considered a friend is Ji Xun.

Ji Xun certainly knows.

He knew about Nanjing and could understand the loneliness. He smiled and said, "Okay. Let's make an appointment to get together next time we meet."

 Nan Jing nodded seriously: "Yes!"

The two of them were chatting, and a little accident happened.

Ji Xun's skin also changed due to absorbing a large amount of blood media.

 From human skin color to dark cyan like a vampire.

However, there is the entry of "The Anchor of the Flesh" [God Thief's Ring], which ensures that the flesh will not be deformed into a vampire.

 The data on the panel is also fully controllable.

 For him, that was enough.

Ji Xun didn't care about the skin color, so he swallowed it hard.

But Nan Jing, who was standing by, couldn't hide his worry and asked with concern: "Mr. Ji Xun, is your body contaminated?"

Ji Xun nodded: "Well, it was contaminated before. I can't explain why. But it's not a bad thing at the moment."

 As he spoke, he raised the ring in his hand to signal her.

Nan Jing looked at the ring, still a little worried. After thinking about it for a while, he muttered with a sad face: "It's a pity that I don't know much about this, otherwise I can help you think of a solution."

Ji Xun smiled and said: "It's okay. I know Master Merlin, he should have a way."

"oh."

Nan Jing pursed his lips as he listened.

 It seems that I feel a little guilty for not helping my friend.

After thinking seriously for a moment, she added: "When I get out, I will check the information and maybe I can find a solution."

 It can be seen that this girl with a round head is really worried about him.

Ji Xun also smiled and did not refuse the kindness: "Okay."

At this time, the two people's eyes were attracted by the countless little bats gathering blood-colored threads in the blood pool.

 The essence of prosperity is the "Ring of the God Thief".

 This catastrophic level relic is much stronger than the human body can tolerate.

Ji Xun's absorption speed is far less fast than this bat.

　　Previously, he thought that he could not drain this pool of corrupted blood media alone, so it would be good to have the help of the Nazgul.

But at this moment, after this little guy becomes stronger, the movement is getting louder and louder.

Ji Xun frowned slightly as he watched.

Hmm, I feel vaguely that there seems to be some hidden danger in this rapid growth.

 Nanjing was even more keen and asked: "Mr. Ji Xun, is this the spirit of the weapon?"

  She is a psychic and has a particularly keen sense of spiritual bodies.

 Have recognized it before.

 Unexpectedly, this bat grew up so quickly.

"Um."

Ji Xun nodded.

He himself had some difficulties, but Nan Jing, a psychic, was here, so he simply told the origin of the ring: "It is the spirit of this ring. It seems that it is also contaminated."

After listening, Nan Jing frowned slightly and explained: "Although Mr. Ji Xun will not be contaminated by faith, there are hidden dangers in a too powerful 'spirit'. The basis of all contracts is equality of strength. If the gap If it is too big, even the 'master-servant contract' will cause problems. Moreover, this ring spirit only absorbs the same kind of divine pollutant. After growing to a certain level, it is likely to awaken the directional consciousness of the old god. It will be very troublesome to restrain them then.”

"yes."

Ji Xun also has this worry.

 A contract is like a dog leash.

 When the dog is much larger than the owner, the binding force of this contract becomes a bit pale.

The ancestor of the Bai family was a **** thief, and it was also difficult to be contaminated, but he was still attacked and was not careless.

 If it were someone else, they might not really know how to solve this problem.

It's just a coincidence.

Opposite Ji Xun is a psychic lady from [Yu Shen Ting] who knows the fifty-two forbidden magic techniques of demon gods.

Nanjing is no longer the naive and ignorant little girl she once was. She sees the hidden dangers in the future.

 This is still an issue that cannot be ignored.

　　Tilting her head and thinking for a while, she looked at Ji Xun and made a suggestion: "Mr. Ji Xun, how about I help you contract it to me? It's like the previous fate entanglement."

As she said that, she explained: "What I mean is that I have [Yu Shen Ting]. This demonic forbidden technique is the best binding contract for all 'spiritual creatures'. No matter what it grows into, it will really The backlash must be at least much stronger than the two of us."

"OK!"

Ji Xun responded with one mouthful.

 He is worried that he cannot solve this hidden danger.

As soon as Nanjing heard this proposal, it was more reliable than any plan he had thought of.

 Even perfectly solved this problem.

 But Ji Xun didn't care about himself and asked: "But...does this have any impact on you?"

 “It doesn't have any effect on me.”

Nan Jing shrugged and said: "On the contrary, it may have an impact on you. After all, you should know that my identity is a bit troublesome."

Ji Xun smiled and didn't take it seriously.

 Of course he knew the trouble.

Last time at the ruins of Xia Mu City, it was because he was entangled with Nan Jing's fate that he was chased by people from Bureau X and almost died.

It now seems that the people from Bureau

 That's why we chose to lay out in advance to eliminate this hidden danger.

 It was only because of Nan Jing's mother's secret intervention that the plan failed.

His mind recalled the previous experience for a moment, but he didn't want to talk about it, and he was afraid that the ball-headed lady would be more worried.

Nan Jing thought he didn't know the stakes, and explained: "This Shenxu treasure house was installed by the ancestors of my Nan family. When you were injured the previous time, the 'Scroll of Communion' I got by chance was also left by my ancestors."

As she spoke, she clapped with one hand. A six-pointed star formation appeared in the void, and a large scroll as tall as her appeared in her hand: "Here, this is it."

This girl still seemed completely unprepared and directly showed Ji Xun the treasure inherited from her high priest lineage.

Ji Xun couldn't laugh or cry at this inexplicable trust.

 It seems like it was like this a long time ago.

This psychic lady has never been defensive about her recognized friends.

As he spoke, Nan Jing glanced over from the corner of his eye and said, "So if it is related to my destiny, there may be a lot of trouble. For example, the royal court, or some believers of the old gods may come looking for me."

Ji Xun shook his head and said calmly: "It's okay."

Hearing this, Nan Jing blinked his long eyelashes and confirmed again: "Then I really have a contract?"

Ji Xun confirmed her gaze: "Yeah."

Nan Jing smiled brightly and felt happy for some reason: "Okay~"

 Trust is always mutual.

 Be able to contract a spirit body together. For the psychic, this kind of relationship will only be agreed to by a very trusting friend.

Ji Xun agreed, and Nan Jing didn't hesitate.

 She directly tore open the scroll and pulled out a large section.

Ji Xun also saw that there were some ultrlevel contents written densely on the scroll that his brain could not yet remember.

The ball-headed lady chose a blank space, dipped it in her own blood, and took a little of Ji Xun's blood, and quickly drew a contract spell.

With a burst of spiritual light, a bat pattern appeared on the scroll.

 The contract is completed.

 The implicit double-bind relationship has been established.

Wangcai's spiritual wisdom hasn't been activated much yet, and he doesn't feel bad about it. He just continues to absorb the blood medium.

 A hidden danger is eliminated. "Mr. Ji Xun, you have changed so much. Oh, you must have encountered a lot of things. Do you have any interesting information?"

"Ah, you don't know, during the period after we separated, I was bored. I was often alone in the dark wilderness, lighting a lamp and learning all kinds of extraordinary knowledge. The ancestors left so many classics, I feel like my brain It's almost too full to hold. But I have to learn. I often have to go to some ruins to find things and inheritance. There is no living person around, only spiritual creatures and ghosts.”

 When friends meet again, both of them have a lot to talk about.

Moreover, the girl with the round head was chattering about her experiences during this period.

Ji Xun listened with great interest, smiling and occasionally responding.

The atmosphere is quite laid-back.

There are no vampires coming back yet, which means that the card masters outside have held back the vampires.

 However, in addition to those vampires who are enemies, there is also a group of forces in this secret realm that belong to another camp.

 About half an hour later, most of the blood energy in the underground passage had decayed.

At this moment, the armored giant next to the altar suddenly lit up with red light in his eyes.

Ji Xun frowned when he saw this strange situation.

This iron lump suddenly made preparations for battle, it must have discovered something.

 Nan Jing's expression on the side was not very good either, and he said directly: "It's the people from the royal court who are here."

Ji Xun's eyes also became serious, "What are those guys doing here?"

Having seen the strength of the "Four Horsemen" before, he didn't think it was a good thing for these guys to come now.

Nanjing analyzed: "Maybe it's for the divine substances in the altar. After all, these things are also of great use to the Silver Moon Sect."

As she spoke, she thought of something and said a little apologetically: "Maybe it's for me."

 When the two of them were communicating, the iron lump had already walked out.

This armored giant is indeed very strong, but it may not be able to stop those Oran remnants.

Nan Jing said directly: "Mr. Ji Xun, you don't have to worry about it. I'll go out and take a look."

Ji Xun: "Yeah. Be careful."

Nan Jing smiled cheerfully and said, "Don't worry. I'm a psychic. Although I can't defeat them, I don't have to fight them head-on."

 As he said that, the person disappeared on the spot.

 In an instant, Ji Xun was the only one left in the empty altar.

Soon, the sound of fierce fighting came from the corridor.

However, unknown to the vampires, the structure of the altar is also very stable and has not been greatly affected for the time being.

  Ji Xun is very clear about his current task.

Everyone outside is creating opportunities for him. The longer it takes, the more disadvantageous it will be.

 There are no other distracting thoughts, just absorb them with concentration.

At this moment, all the attribute values ​​​​on his panel have almost exceeded the 120 mark.

 This has reached the level of a fourth-level melee card master.

Ji Xun also clearly sensed the familiar level bottleneck at this moment.

 In other words, his body is about to reach its endurance limit.

On the stone pillar, divinity was also quickly absorbed into the clown mask.

●This exclusive relic of the cataclysmic level has also undergone new changes at this moment. The three main terms of "comprehension", "cognition" and "mystery" have all increased significantly.

 “My understanding has increased a little.”

Ji Xun felt happy when he saw it.

 Now he has mastered more and more secret techniques.

  Comprehension is particularly important.

 Even a little improvement will qualitatively improve his understanding of those profound and extraordinary knowledge.

 The fighting was fierce outside, and Ji Xun continued to absorb it.

 But at this moment, a sudden change occurred!

Suddenly a tentacle sprang out from the blood pool like a water snake, and pierced his chest in one go.

Then it spreads throughout the body like taking root.

At the same time, enlightenment also appeared: "You are exempted from a high-ranking belief pollution directed at the scarlet corrupt Seiadis."

"Um?"

Ji Xun quickly grabbed the twisting tentacle.

 This scene seems familiar a hundred years ago.

 He was attacked by tentacles from the pool of blood.

But this time, the tentacle was obviously not meant to kill him, but to pollute him.

Ji Xun looked at the scarlet thing that was still twisting in his hand. When he took a closer look, he saw that there was no tentacle there, but a living blood vessel!

  【Scarlet corrupted active blood vessels】

Detailed explanation: Divine material, which is the flesh and blood tissue condensed by the scarlet corrupted Seaadis divine power; flesh and blood is a rare material, with very strong belief pollution and the power of super-order laws;

"What is this?"

Ji Xun looked at the blood vessels twisting around in his hand like a living snake, and the corners of his eyes twitched.

 Like a living thing, but it is an independent blood vessel.

Just looking at it with the naked eye makes you feel like a double image, making you feel dizzy and unable to look directly.

Moreover, the continuous “high level pollution” of Enlightenment is particularly eye-catching.

 That means you can be exempted from belief pollution.

 Otherwise, I'm afraid I've already been tricked.

Just as he was thinking about it, a reverse channeling array lit up in the void.

 Nanjing noticed the change and appeared beside him immediately.

She looked at the blood vessels and then at Ji Xun, whose chest was pierced, and asked anxiously with concern: "Are you okay?"

Ji Xun shook his head: "It's okay. Skin injury."

 The pollution was ignored, it was really just a superficial wound to him.

 At the same time he asked: "What on earth is this?"

Nan Jing checked that nothing was wrong, and he breathed a sigh of relief, and explained: "Divine substance. In layman's terms, it is the part of the body that the believers of the old **** used to shape the old **** with various blood media. Now it is just a A blood vessel, theoretically speaking, as long as the body is completely formed, the old **** can be resurrected."

As she said that, a look of solemnity appeared in her crystal eyes, and she said: "This is an extremely dangerous pollutant. I didn't expect the people of the Scarlet Sect to have done it to this extent. That is because you are Mr. Ji Xun and you can be exempted from the pollution. Otherwise. Under the demigod, almost anyone who touches it will be contaminated. Including me! Fortunately, it is you, otherwise we would be in trouble."

Ji Xun also realized that this blood vessel problem was very difficult.

 He pulled the blood vessel out of his chest.

This twisting blood vessel has no offensive capabilities except for the initial sneak attack.

It struggled in Ji Xun's hand and stuck to his skin, corroding and sizzling.

Ji Xun felt like he was holding a bomb with the safety guard open. It was neither right to throw it nor to hold it in his hand.

 He asked: "Is this blood vessel a living thing?"

"no."

Nan Jing shook his head and said: "You can think of it as... um... something like the beating nerves of certain monsters after death. But it is not a living thing itself, nor a dead thing. It does not have Conscious spirituality. Aggressive behavior is just a reflex."

Ji Xun's brows deepened: “So, how should we deal with it?”

Nanjing said: "Currently there is no way to safely handle this divine substance. Whether it is destroyed or sealed, it is a huge hidden danger. If it were me, I might throw it into the underworld."

As she said that, she looked at Ji Xun, thought of something, pondered for a moment and then said: "But excluding the pollution itself, this is a divine substance after all, and it can also be considered a treasure. It can become a part of the divine body, and it can naturally become a human being. Part of it. Someone did this in ancient times. As far as I know, the card masters of the [God Thief] lineage are good at this kind of dangerous thing. However, that requires some secret methods. It should have been lost now."

 Obviously, this blood vessel caused her trouble.

When Ji Xun heard this, he suddenly thought, had Qin Ru just received the inheritance from the ancestors of the Bai family, maybe he could handle it?

 Looking at this blood vessel, it doesn't seem to be a threat to me.

 He asked: "Can you save it first? I know a person who might be able to handle it."

Nan Jing was also curious about who he was talking about, but he didn't ask further and said: "I can seal it temporarily. But currently, none of the containment cards in my hand can withstand this level of material."

As Ji Xun listened, he felt that the blood vessel seemed to be difficult to deal with.

Nan Jing suddenly thought of something and suggested, "How about I seal it in your body first?"

Ji Xun was startled by this outrageous suggestion, and instinctively asked, "Okay?"

Nan Jing said: "Of course. You will not be polluted. Theoretically speaking, this divine substance is sealed in the body and is beneficial and harmless. It can also give you some extraordinary characteristics."

Ji Xun has really gained a lot of experience, "Can it still be like this?"

"yes."

Nan Jing nodded and explained: "Many card master sequences have similar abilities. For example, [Diamond 6 - Outlaw Madman]'s magical mysterious method "Heavenly King's Curse Body" is to seal various evil spirits in the body and strengthen it. His own fighting power and the lineage of psychics also have similar secret techniques, which can seal spirits and even monsters in their own bodies. And my "Royal God Court" is good at this kind of seal, so it should be no problem. "

As soon as Ji Xun heard this, he immediately thought of Xie Guozhong.

 It turns out that this is the reason why he has evil spirit tattoos all over his body.

Since it was feasible, he said directly: "Then I'll trouble you."

 Whether it's useful or not, seal it first.

 In case it doesn't work, throw it away later.

 Nan Jing nodded: "Yeah."

Those vampires never expected that they were hiding in the blood pool and expected to sneak attack on the "divine blood vessels" of a top card master, but they met a person who was not afraid of contamination at all.

 Coincidentally, Ji Xun was able to resolve this fatal danger inexplicably.

 Nan Jing took action, and the lively "blood vessels" were quickly sealed into his body.

 There is no negative impact.

 It's just that there are some red lines on the arms.

 Slightly burning, the overflowing extraordinary characteristics continued to pollute his body.

 But this is a good thing for Ji Xun.

As soon as the blood vessels were sealed, the originally highly polluted blood pool was like a tree with its roots cut off, with 90% of its blood energy drained away.

 Looking at the formation, it could be destroyed at any time.

 Originally it was expected to take more than an hour to absorb, and we had to be prepared for various unknown risks.

 I didn't expect that it's only half an hour and it's done.

This progress has exceeded expectations and is a great benefit.

 Those who are fighting vampires outside will also be greatly relieved.

 There is no need for Nanjing to continue to guard Ji Xun.

 The situation suddenly became clear.

 “How is the situation outside?”

"I channeled the 'Moon Knight Legion'. They know they can't kill me, so they should give up."

Ji Xun also guessed the plans of those in the Oran Palace.

I have never showed up before, and the probability is to wait for Gongwu to fight with the vampires, and then come forward to clean up the disabled.

  It's a good plan.

 But now, because of Ji Xun's mistake, the fierce battle that was supposed to last for a long time ended prematurely.

  Didn't wait long.

 The sound of "clicking" gravel sounded.

 The altar, which did not have enough blood to maintain it, suddenly cracked a gap.

Without the support of the formation, the blood mist that filled the city outside quickly dissipated under the sunlight.

 A large number of vampires were exposed to the sun and burned spontaneously.

The vampires who were lucky enough to be alive and running around were also chased by Gong Wu and a group of card masters and fled into the ground in a panic.

 But the altar was destroyed, and these believers of the old gods had lost any chance of making a comeback.

 When the secret realm is closed, all believers of the old gods will be wiped out and become part of the monsters in the secret realm.

 Nanjing also breathed a sigh of relief.

Her mission is to destroy this scarlet altar.

 Because of Ji Xun, the process was much easier than expected, and she also avoided a fatal crisis.

However, the moment the altar was broken, Ji Xungang breathed a sigh of relief, but suddenly thought of something: "No! Where is the jar?"
