Volume 3 Hello, Eri Chapter 311 Return to the Ruins (IV)
In Liezi Tangwen, it is recorded that "to the east of Bohai Sea, for an unknown number of millions of miles, there is a huge abyss, which is actually a bottomless valley with no bottom, and its name is Guixu."
At that time, the ancients did not understand the true face of the world. Seeing the water in the rivers flowing into the sea day and night, they could not help but feel worried, thinking that the water in the sea would eventually fill up. What if the sea water overflowed and flooded the land? From this, the legend of Guixu was derived. There is a bottomless ditch hundreds of millions of miles east of the Bohai Sea. The water in the sea flows there, so the sea water will never fill up. The name of that place is Guixu.
It was originally just the imagination of the ancients, but Guixu was proven to exist by Kassel Academy. It is just that it is not a place name, but a kind of word spirit, an incredible phenomenon, which was proved to be related to the opening up of space, just like the Nibelungen that appeared out of thin air.
This word spirit can inspire water elements in a large area and command them to obey the will of the releaser. It is not as violent as Zhulong, but more terrifying than Zhulong. Water itself has extremely high plasticity, but under the strict control of Guixu, even without any container, water can form various cubic shapes without overflowing. Imagine if all the water in the ocean was gathered together to form a straight spear, Guixu could make this spear directly poke the moon.
The rising water level has submerged the valley of the viaduct. The rain is getting lighter and lighter. Because all the usable water elements have been sucked away by Guixu, Chu Zihang began to realize that this is a very bold plan. Someone released Guixu and used a tsunami to bring a huge amount of water elements to Tokyo Bay, and then planned to completely destroy this Nibelungen. Since there is no way to get out, just destroy it directly!
But who could that be? The White King certainly wouldn't want to destroy his own city. Anyone who dared to do so must be an enemy of the White King, or even another Dragon King!
Mount Fuji erupted with raging red flames again. Li Wuyue sat high in the sky, and the wings behind him could easily hold up his body without flapping. He looked at the shining dust column from a distance and knew very well what was happening there. Although he had never seen the White King in person, the call of his bloodline would never lie. It was something that could be on par with the Black King and was more noble than his bloodline.
Wouldn't it be a unique treat to be able to take out the heart of something like that? Unfortunately, he couldn't leave yet, because there was something more interesting at the moment.
Xiyue walked on the seawater, each step was as smooth as walking on flat ground. She looked up at Li Wuyue, her eyes rippling with brilliant molten gold, like a spinning mandala. Her whole body was covered in hard scales, which were flowing with beautiful luster, as if they were made of some unique metal.
The water level was rising at an alarming rate, crushing the highest record ever set by the Tokyo Meteorological Bureau every second, and was firmly controlled within the Tokyo land area. More than one-third of the viaducts were covered by huge cube-shaped bubbles, and not a single drop of water would leak out. If Guixu continued to develop, it would be enough to fill up the entire Nibelungen, including anyone inside. This huge space would be filled with countless waves, and every gap would be filled. Even dragons need air, and creatures that cannot breathe would be suffocated to death.
"In order to kill me, are you prepared to let the entire Nibelung be buried with me?" Li Wu Yue looked down at Xi Yue, with a hint of arrogance on her pretty and childish face.
He is the overlord of the sky and wind, and there is no need for him to let his feet be stained by the mundane world. Even when he is talking to his own people, everyone can only look up to him with respect, or even kneel down in fear and trepidation.
"There is no room for reconciliation between us. The only thing I don't understand is why you have such great malice towards us sisters? In the past few years, we have not had much contact with you. We are all traitors and accomplices, but you are the only one who wants to hurt us again and again."
The surging spring water rising from the sea dragged Xiyue up until she was at the same height as Li Wuyue. The two sides had long been sworn enemies, and Xiyue could not allow herself to always be inferior to the other.
"It was raining on the day I was born," Li Wuyue said softly. "I hate rain because I feel isolated in the rain. I am isolated from the whole world. I am all alone."
"Then you should go find your sister."
"She is more brutal and ruthless than me. There is nothing good to talk about between us. So I am always alone. I used to get close to many humans and stand among them, hoping to get some warmth. But I soon found out that this was not possible. Even if I helped them, once they found out that I was an alien species with the ability to kill them easily, they would not be grateful to me. Instead, they would fear me, avoid me, hate me, or even kill me. From then on, I realized that my life was a mistake."
Li Wu Yue simply gave a brief description of her past experiences and passed them over lightly. Those were memories not worth mentioning. There was no need to bring up painful things over and over again, as that would only make her more sad.
"My heart is so empty that I can't find the meaning of life. So I just do whatever I want. I slaughter my own kind, deceive humans, and watch the half-bloods and dragons fight to the death. You know what? I haven't been happy for many years. The only thing that makes me happy is watching living things suffer, bleed, twist and struggle, until their lives gradually fade away and they can never move again. For example... your sister, being a sacrifice should be a rare enjoyment."
Li Wu Yue raised a faint smile at the corner of his lips. He didn't do that thing personally, but he participated in it. It was because of his existence that those people could carry out the great plan of awakening the White King.
This sentence was like the spark that detonated a bomb. Xiyue suddenly became a different person, like a wounded beast. The sea water surged, and thousands of water arrows rose into the sky, locking the space around Li Wuyue.
Li Wu Yue clenched his right fist and punched lightly to his side. The air twisted strangely, as if it was forcibly rolled into a ball, along with the reflected sky. All the water arrows exploded when they were only half an inch away from him. Even the splashing sea water could not touch his body at all.
"After so many years, you two sisters are still only good at this kind of tricks. Between kings, the only way to decide the outcome is with swords, fists and feet!"
Li Wuyue's figure disappeared, and he turned into a ball of black mist that merged into the sky. Xiyue carefully used Qianlong to create a water ball around her to protect herself, but the next moment she was grabbed by the neck and crashed into the viaduct at high speed, buried in piles of rubble. She could hear her bones wailing. After being attacked by Gungnir, she was always on the verge of death. No matter what the result of using the spirit of Guixu, she was destined to die here.
"There seems to be something wrong with you." Li Wuyue stepped on Xiyue's shoulders and pushed her into the stone pestle. He expected this girl to do something to resist him, preferably using all the tricks she was good at. The revenge for killing her sister was enough to make her furious, right? But Xiyue didn't even have the strength to move. The king of the ocean and water shouldn't be so fragile. Even if she was not good at fighting with her life, the bones and blood in her body should be able to support her violent roar.
Xiyue was unable to answer him. She started coughing softly. Black blood oozed from the corners of her mouth and eye sockets, with a strange smell that made people feel like they were in a chemistry laboratory.
That is death.
The balance she had been trying to maintain these days fell apart with Li Wu Yue's blow. Odin's Gungnir was a weapon beyond mythology. Anyone hit by would surely die. Even if the Dragon King could hold on at the moment, death was only a matter of time. She could only use continuous regeneration to fight against infinite death, but regeneration had a limit after all. Her blood had all turned black due to the pollution of Gungnir, but death had no beginning and no end and would eventually come as promised.
"Is it disappointing? Maybe you won't even have the chance to ravage me, because I will die soon. But even if I die, Guixu will not stop. Either you go to the White King and fight her to get the key to leave Nibelungen, or you will be buried here with me."
The bluffing dragon transformation phenomenon quickly faded from Xiyue, and she became the girl with a slight sense of distance and indifference again. A strand of hair was caught between her lips. She tried to look at Li Wuyue with the same proud eyes, full of hatred, and she would not admit defeat even if she died.
In fact, from the moment she saw Li Wu Yue in Nibelungen, she knew that the time of her death was coming. She never expected that she could defeat Li Wu Yue. Her only hope was to drown Li Wu Yue here with the help of Guixu. Nibelungen was an excellent cage. If you want to leave the land of the dead, you must pay a price, and Li Wu Yue only has himself and cannot afford it.
"You think I can't do it?"
Li Wuyue hummed the ancient spell, and the dead elements in the Nibelung were quietly awakened. The raging storm tore the sea apart, and a tornado rose from the seabed, lifting a large amount of seawater into the sky and turning it into dark rain clouds. He punched the tornado lightly, and the cracks visible to the naked eye spread along the air and hit the eye of the storm. In an instant, the clouds and rain stopped, and even the tornado was forcibly defeated. The rushing water fell on the heads of the two people, and Li Wuyue's golden eyes became brighter in the dark rain.
This is how Li Wuyue fights. Wherever there is air is his home ground. The fuel-air bomb created by humans using modern technology uses a mixture of highly volatile fuel aerosols and air to ignite and explode in the target area, consuming a large amount of oxygen in the air and causing a short period of hypoxia in the explosion area to achieve killing and destruction.
Li Wuyue can achieve the same effect with just a few moves. Not only can he easily cause air explosions, he can also make a large amount of air vibrate at high frequencies, transmitting potential energy or sound waves. The King of Bronze and Fire, the King of Earth and Mountains, have no chance of winning against Li Wuyue, and mixed-blood humans are even less likely to do so. Just a breathing problem can kill them.
Among the four monarchs, the only ones who pose a threat to Li Wu Yue are the two sisters Ocean and Water. In an oxygen-deficient water environment, Li Wu Yue has no way to exert any strength. He cannot use the air in the water like fish, so he specifically targets Xiyue and Chaochao. As long as he wipes them out, no one can be his enemy.
Xiyue knew that this was Li Wuyue's weakness, so she used Guixu. It would only take one hour for the entire Nibelungen world to be infused with an environment comparable to the deep ocean. Li Wuyue would not be able to perform any function, but she did not seem to be afraid at all.
"Even if the White King and the Black King can be on equal footing, the one that has just been born is just a newborn baby. Human beings have no right to stop me. The White King's Dragon Bone Cross is within my reach. Otherwise, why do you think I would support this plan and use your sister as a sacrifice to awaken the White King? The awakening of the Black King has long been destined. We have sent him to the cemetery once, and of course we don't mind a second time. It's just that I still need some strength to be qualified to face him." Li Wu Yue sneered, and her golden eyes were full of chilling coldness.
Xiyue sensed a sense of déjà vu in those eyes. She suddenly remembered that Li Wuyue had always been serious in the past, but his expression was so vivid now. He would say cold words and mock maliciously. When did Li Wuyue become like this? He had clearly cut off all his emotions!
"You... ate your own sister!" Xiyue finally understood what that familiar feeling in Li Wuyue's eyes meant. That was his sister, his twin. The sky and the wind merged into one and completed the evolution.
"So I evolved. I'm different from you stupid things." Li Wuyue was very satisfied with Xiyue's shocked expression. This was what he liked most. "Norton, Jörmungandr, and you are all trapped by the stupid twin love and don't understand the meaning of the dragon race at all. We are born to be a lonely race. This is the reason why each of us is so powerful. The moment you seek comfort to fill the emptiness in your heart, you are doomed to fail! Even if the Black King doesn't wake up, he will be killed one by one by humans because of this huge weakness!"
"And I have jumped out of this fatal shackle! I indulge in loneliness and enjoy loneliness. Only in this way can I accept the loneliness that belongs to us! This is the true meaning of the dragon race, the reason why the Black King was born in the first place! The truth that I have been searching for for thousands of years!"
He raised his arms and shouted with a great voice like a poet, announcing his great victory. In the past, he was indeed without any aspirations as he said, but from the moment he ate his sister, everything was different. He finally realized how stupid he was and felt like he was reborn.
The beam of light from the helicopter dropped from the sky and hit Li Wu Yue. Li Wu Yue raised his head towards the strong light. He vaguely felt the visit of an old friend, bringing with him the smell of blood from the sword.
