Almighty Alchemist
Chapter 50: The Savior
Above the altar, as soon as the door of blazing flames slowly appeared, it was like a closed vertical eye, first a line, and then gradually opened, turning into a crack.
Through that slit, Xu saw it. Inside the door is a void of nothingness, as deep as the universe.
Outside the door, three ethereal and swaying figures gradually appeared from the darkness.
One is a black monster with huge double horns and a ghostly aura all over his body. His face looks like a dried old tree, full of wrinkles, but there is always a strange smile in his eyes.
Just by looking at that guy, Xu felt a shiver of fear from the depths of his body and mind. Although he had never seen this monster before, something his mother had told him appeared in his mind at that moment: the soul demon Adrias, the terrible monster that lives by devouring souls.
It's him! It must be him! His eyes have a peculiar power to control the mind. It is said that from the moment he was born, he was a born soul master.
And on the other side is a guy with a blood red body and a very tall figure. His body seemed to be made of blood plasma, which flowed continuously, making him look as disgusting as he could be. His right arm is a particularly thick giant claw, with three sharp teeth in a strange barb shape, and the entire claw arm is one-third the size of his body.
Gorefiend Ur, seeing that arm and that disgusting body that seemed to be made of plasma, another name popped up in Xu's heart. This guy is bloodthirsty to form and eats blood. He is combined with Soul Demon Adrias, Vulture Ignatius, and Beast Demon Krystal, known as the scavenger among the Seven Generals. Because of the four of them, one loves blood, one eats souls, and the other loves offal and meat. When they are combined, the target prey's fate is to be devoured until there is no residue left, and the soul is eaten.
As for the one standing in the middle, it is a hazy black mist, you can't even see his existence clearly, you can only feel a vague and strange aura. There seems to be a face in the black mist, constantly changing, twisting into various strange shapes, without a fixed shape.
Shadow Fiend Langford.
The second largest general under Egmont, a terrifying existence with the innate power of Shadow Bite. He is a natural assassin, but also a very lewd guy. He is interested in almost all female creatures, and will always try his best to have sex with them.
God knows what this guy who doesn't even have a fixed shape uses for sex. Could it be that he turned himself into a huge stick when he did that? This sentence is Xu's mother Rita's harsh evaluation of Shadow Demon Langford. It is said that the reason why she has no interest in returning to the abyss is largely because she is afraid of this bastard.
It is said that the inferior existence of the sawtooth beast is a good thing that Langford has done. It was his little blood that gave the ruler beast the ability to evade fighting spirit.
The three generals of the Demon King's Legion appeared in the Western Continent at the same time, which shocked Xu.
He stared blankly at the three generals. None of these three generals could be dealt with by him, not even his mother Rita.
Rita once said to Xu: Even if the dragon clan was in its heyday, they would never be able to defeat the blood demon Ur, so don't fight him.
If you encounter the fourth general soul demon Adrias, run away immediately, as far as you can.
If you encounter a fire vulture or a shadow demon, you can give up even the idea of running.
As for the super terrifying First General and Egmont himself, I'm sorry, the Demon Dragon Clan is not yet qualified to let them take action.
But now, what Xu encountered was the joint appearance of three generals.
Xu could feel a slight pain in his throat.
According to his mother, he doesn't even need to escape now.
The crimson gate above the altar was still spitting out blazing flames, and the three generals paid homage to the gate of time and space above it as if they hadn't seen Xu.
The three generals simultaneously made turbid, hoarse, or dry voices: "Your Majesty Bathgate, here we come!"
This call made Xu's whole body tremble.
Bathgate!
Could it be that this former guardian of mankind, the head of the death army of the abyss, was sealed in the gate of time and space on this temple?
That's right, since Bathgate was sealed when he attacked the Western Continent, it is of course impossible for him to leave the Western Continent where he was sealed. And to stake out the entire Western Continent, only the powerful power of the Time-Space Gate can seal a powerful existence like Bathgate. Only here is the closest to the place where all the temple mages cast spells, and can exert the most powerful power of the magic circle.
It seems that they didn't seal Bathgate, but the gate of time and space. The temple mages used powerful forces to block the passage through the two worlds, and Bathgate was imprisoned here for life.
But why is it now that the gate of time and space opens?
Xu couldn't figure it out.
He saw Shadow Fiend Langford holding something aloft.
The brilliance of that thing flickered, so that Xu couldn't see what kind of existence it was, but under the brilliance, the crack in the gate of time and space was gradually increasing.
Xu could even see a huge bronze arm protruding from the gate of time and space, as if trying to tear something apart. An angry roar came from the gate of time and space: "Quick! Increase your strength! You lowly weeds!"
The three generals responded at the same time, and the brilliance emitted by the strange thing in the shadow demon's hand suddenly intensified, and continued to tear at the crack-like gate of time and space. With the concerted efforts of Bathgate inside and the three generals outside, the gate of time and space opened little by little, like the slightly opened clam shell of a river clam.
Xu understood in an instant.
The three generals are trying to use the power of a certain artifact to break the seal and rescue Bathgate who was sealed in the gate of time and space. Although he didn't understand why they ignored him as if they couldn't see him, but at that moment, he realized that this might be the best time for him to escape.
But escape like this?
Watching Bathgate escape from the seal like this?
Xu seemed to see Xiu Yi's reproachful eyes.
He could almost imagine that it might be difficult for him to forgive himself if he let his father know his choice.
Although Xiu Yiglaer is not his biological father, to Xu, Xiu Yi is like his real father, who loves him, takes care of him, and teaches him. Although his father's body was only eighteen years old, his mind was more mature and wise than anyone he had ever seen.
He knew his father wanted him to be a great dragon in the future.
He didn't want to disappoint him, especially after failing that trial.
"There is no great person in this world. When facing death, he greets it with fear and panic. A great existence needs to have great qualities first. Perseverance, bravery, and the supreme courage to do what you know can't be done!"
His father's words rang in his ears again.
Xu looked at the slowly enlarging crack in time and space, his eyes gradually changed.
"Okay, then even if I die, I have to do what I should do before I die."
Xu murmured in a low voice.
"Roar!" He roared suddenly.
The boy's body suddenly turned into a huge black dragon, and he rushed fiercely at the strange object in the hands of Shadow Demon Langford.
This sudden blow surprised the three generals. Without any precautions, the strange object in their hands was smashed into pieces by Xu Bang.
The rift in time and space suddenly closed again, and Bathgate's angry shout came from the rift...
"Bastard!" It was Langford screaming.
The transformed image of the Shadow Demon suddenly became ferocious and tall, even surpassing the size of the Blood Demon Ur.
He roared wildly: "The dragon! The dragon from the abyss! As an existence in the abyss, how dare you stop the return of the great Lord Bathgate!"
"It's Rita's son!" Soul Demon Adrias screamed, "I smell the disgusting stench in his soul, from his father!"
"Kill him!" Gorefiend Ur raged.
Three huge energy shocks flooded Xu like ocean waves.
Floating in the ocean of energy, Xu only felt that every bit of flesh and blood on his body was turning into powder. But there was a sweet smile on his face.
He whispered softly: "Father..."
—————————————
open your eyes.
Xu sat up.
He found himself in the middle of the main hall in the Dou Qi Gate.
Above that, in a huge crystal ball, a cloud of mist loomed, forming the face of an old man.
What, what's going on here?
Xu stared at himself dumbfounded.
Shouldn't I die under the joint attack of the three generals?
"Congratulations, child, you have passed the test of courage." The voice of Cripwell, the great elder of the temple, came from the crystal ball.
trial?
"Haven't I already passed the test?" Xu called out loudly.
A strange smile appeared on the elder's face.
In an instant, Xu understood.
Damn it, this old man even gave him a chance.
He actually created a game within a game, a fantasy within a fantasy. When the first trial was completed, Xu thought he had completed the trial, and he was talking to Cripwell at that time. After Kripwell passed on all the knowledge about fighting spirit to him, it disappeared. But he didn't expect that this itself was part of the illusion. In fact, he did not walk out of the illusion, but was still in the illusion.
So after he left the Dou Qi Gate, a new test came immediately.
The opening of the Three Generals, the crack in time and space, and the return of Bathgate are all illusions.
And this illusion is the real test for Xiu Yi.
"Why did you do this?" Xu didn't understand. He yelled: "Why do you have to test me repeatedly? Why do you want to create such an illusion?"
In the crystal ball, Cripwell's voice was deep and serious: "You can think that it's because you came from the abyss, and I don't trust you enough. So I need you to further prove yourself, in the war between the abyss and humans, you choose a position; you can also think that because you have experienced the first illusion once, you are already mentally prepared. The test passed in this case does not have enough effect... The same test twice, you can't verify its authenticity, right? But the most important thing is... this Not just a test."
Xu stared blankly at Cripwell, he could understand the meaning of the old man's first half of the sentence. Indeed, as an abyssal dragon, Cripwell has a reason to give him one more trial. Indeed, as a person who has repeatedly come in for trials, Cripwell also has a reason to give him an additional test and create a game within a game, but why is this the content?
Xu didn't understand.
"You just said that this is not just a test? What do you mean?"
"Yes, it's not just a test, kid. Because it's also a prophecy."
"Prophecy?" Xu was taken aback. "You mean the illusion just now was a prophecy? That it will happen sooner or later?"
"It's not sooner or later, but very soon." Cripwell sighed heavily: "When the last heir to the civilization of the Western Continent appears, a terrifying demon king will descend from the sky and bring disaster to the world... This is the last and most important prophecy of the Western Continent before its demise. We have seen it, we have seen the return of Bathgate, we have seen the changes in the world, but at the same time, we have also seen that there are always some heroes who can stop him."
Xu Ting was in a cold sweat: "I don't understand what you are talking about."
"I'm talking about responsibility, child. Do you really think that as long as you inherit everything here, you can easily leave? Do you really think that Bathgate's return is a distant future? Do you really think that there is no necessary connection between inheritance and return?"
"You mean...my acceptance of the inheritance led to Bathgate's return? No! I don't want that!" Xu shouted, "If that's the case, I'd rather give up!"
"You can't give up, because you can't change your destiny. Destiny is doomed. Those who inherit the civilization of the Western Continent will be the last to resist Bathgate. As we know, heroes are always born with demons. Without devils, there will be no heroes. Then similarly, when heroes appear, devils will also be born. This is destiny!"
"Today, there are already three heirs of civilization in the Western Continent. Fate has chosen you to be heroes against the abyss, and you yourself have chosen to stand up at the most critical moment. Therefore, that is not a choice I imposed on you, but a choice you made yourself."
Xu repeatedly shook his head: "I don't believe it. My father said not to believe in fate, because fate is in your own hands. And if your prophecy is so good, why didn't you discover it earlier?! I don't believe that there is really a prophecy in this world that can see the future!"
Cripwell looked sad: "Indeed, there is no prophecy in this world that can really see through the future, because the future is too elusive, and it cannot be verified if it does not happen. Therefore, prophecy can usually only give vague directional instructions to some specific things. But when a special and powerful force appears, prophecy can also play a role?"
"What power?"
"The law of time and space!" Cripwell whispered: "The law of Bathgate's time and space. It was this terrible power that destroyed the temple, and it was also this terrible power that allowed us to see the future, let us master the way to deal with him, let us seal him, and let us leave the gate of inheritance here, waiting for your arrival."
"My arrival?" Xu asked in surprise.
Xu couldn't understand this sentence at all.
He stammered: "I think, among the three heirs in the Western Continent, whether it is Electra or my father Hugh Iglesel, they are all greater than me and more qualified to be the ones who can fight against Bathgate."
"No!" Cripwell replied solemnly: "Hui Yi is very good, but he is not the one chosen by fate. Xu, you are the hero who is destined to defeat Bathgate. You are the most important choice of fate! Hugh Igleser only exists because of the need to train you. I am waiting here for a thousand years, but I am actually waiting for you."
As if a thunderbolt hit him, Xu's eyes spun.
——————————————————————
Winnington Palace.
Princess Garden.
Avril lay in Xiu Yi's arms, enjoying Xiu Yi's caress.
His hand slid across the princess's fragrant shoulders and rested on her lower abdomen.
She could even feel the heat brought by that hand, it was a kind of hotness in her lower abdomen.
This made her a little shy, but also a little liking.
Mammy once told her that if a man treats you too well, he is probably not attractive to you.
This hateful teaching once convinced Avril that Xiu Yi's love for herself was not sincere enough.
It wasn't until after he came down from Yinyue Peak that he came here for the first time to visit her.
The little princess felt relieved immediately.
At this moment, Xiu Yi was telling her the story of her life in the southern continent.
Hearing the legendary stories one by one, Avril Lavigne's eyes straightened.
When Xiu Yi said that she almost died in order to achieve the combination of magic and martial arts, the girl's heart ached badly. But when she heard that Xiu Yi possessed the power of the God Realm because of this, she was ecstatic for him.
Lying in Xiu Yi's arms, she hugged Xiu Yi's neck from bottom to top, and said softly: "Promise me, Xiu Yi, don't take such risks again, okay?"
"Of course, for you, I won't take any risks lightly." Xiuyi replied with a smile.
Avril wrinkled her cute little nose: "You're a liar, what if that Getter calls?"
"That's not easy, let's use people to pile up." Xiu Yi quickly replied: "Although the God's Domain is powerful, it can't be used unlimitedly. If you lose the God's Domain, you still have to rely on your own strength to fight for your life. There are so many holy domains in the human world. The strong ones can always be stacked to death, right? I will make more troll gods, anyway, I won't be a hero, okay?"
Avril sat up quickly: "Are you serious?"
Xiu Yi replied seriously: "Believe me, Avril Lavigne, the job of being a savior involves heavy workload, dangerous work, and low salary. I have no interest at all."
What he said was interesting, and Avril burst out laughing: "Then you still want to contact everyone to fight against the abyss?"
"I don't want to be a dangerous savior. It's not a dangerous savior. I can still consider it." Xiuyi laughed.
This time, he spoke the truth.
Avril looked at Xiu Yi in a daze, and said in a low voice: "I never realized that you are such a bad person...but I just like it."
She put her arms around Xiu Yi's neck, kissed her fiercely, and hugged Xiu Yi tightly, feeling extremely sweet in her heart.
All the complaints and dissatisfaction with Xiu Yi disappeared at this moment.
