Bright!

“Puppet, it’s just because of being unwise that it got to where it is today.

And as us, we cannot evaluate whether it is right or wrong.

Perhaps in its own eyes, everything it did was correct. "

Night Furies rarely defend others, but Marionette is an exception.

The dead puppet is no longer the troublesome son of Gu Yinduo, but the dirty doll in the hands of the Night Fury.

Death is the return of everything.

"Do you think Xu Le will really come here?" Black Sheep still doesn't understand why Night Fury is so optimistic about Xu Le.

It always felt that Xu Le was a little unreliable and too young.

But the Night Fury just smiled and asked:

"I think?"

"Yes, you think so."

"I think he will break through the darkness with extraordinary clarity and determination, allowing light to emerge from the cracks."

The black sheep was silent again.

As the final companion of Night Fury, it doesn't understand the meaning of this sentence.

Perhaps it was because it didn't want to see this scene or let something like this happen, so it kept denying Xu Le in its heart.

"Forget it, I won't cause trouble for myself."

"Hahahaha." Ye Sha laughed heartily, a smile he had not seen for a long time.

…

Near the lighthouse, outside the Soul Torch.

Xu Le's figure suddenly fell to the ground, without an astonishing shock wave or any violent sound.

Only a circle of black ripples spread outward, and then Xu Le landed firmly on the ground.

Not far away from him, a slightly huge figure was eating the branches and trunk of the Soul Torch.

dragon!

Judging from the surrounding environment and the degree of damage to the soul torch, it seems that it has been eating here for a long time.

If you eat so many branches and trunks, won’t you be able to sustain yourself?

This was Xu Le's idea. Even if a battle might break out next, he still couldn't help but think about this somewhat out-of-the-box question.

As if sensing Xu Le's appearance, Long suddenly turned his head.

This turn of his head made Xu Le frown slightly.

On the dragon's skull, a huge crack spread down along the frontal bone, almost reaching the bridge of the dragon's nose.

Above the crack in the frontal bone, Xu Le could even clearly see some flesh and blood tissue, as well as the innermost brain.

At the upper part of the nose bridge of the keel, a colorful dragon crystal with most of it cut out is embedded there, and it seems to be connected to the entire inside of the faucet.

Except for the huge and terrifying wound on the dragon's head, the dragon's body was not much better.

A large hole was punched through its chest by some kind of sharp attack. If you look inside the large hole, you can see that the dragon's heart has been broken into half.

The powerful recovery ability allowed the broken heart to barely stop bleeding, but this also caused the blood supply to other parts of its body to become unbalanced.

In addition, there are large and small wounds on the dragon's wings, claws, and everywhere.

It looked like it had gone through an indescribable struggle.

This kind of injury can no longer be called a victory.

Because when Long looked at Xu Le, his pair of unusually scarlet eyes with color blocks made Long, who used to be full of majesty and oppression, completely lose his grace.

Today's dragon is like a super weird person who may die at any time.

Xu Le felt a little sad because of his weakness, lack of intelligence, and confused appearance, as well as the strong spiritual energy that leaked out from time to time.

Long is a somewhat special son of Gu Yinduo.

As the Lord of the Sky, he is completely unlike a puppet who always creates a large number of projections to interfere with the trajectory of the human world.

After the power of the seal was lifted, the dragon used the sky as its base.

He has no intention of creating additional heirs for Guyin, and of course it is unlikely that he will do anything to help humanity.

It is detached from things and is not coerced by other wills in this world.

Xu Le has had several contacts with it, and he has a certain understanding of the character of the son of Gu Yinduo in front of him.

Under that serious and angry appearance, Long's character is actually relatively peaceful.

Xu Le has never seen the extreme event it did to make a puppet, nor did he destroy other places randomly because of his nerves.

Compared with other sons of Gu Yinduo, Long's character can be said to be quite dull.

However, Xianyu is not weak, the dragon is quite powerful.

Its own pressure is the best way to deal with weak monsters. Monsters that are not strong enough will have no fighting power when they feel the pressure of the dragon.

Dragons with this kind of ability don't need Guyin to have many heirs most of the time.

But from the look in front of him, it was obvious that he was not among them.

It was so badly injured that it was delirious.

"Master Long, are you okay?"

Woo! ~

As if sensing the dangerous aura on Xu Le's body, Long did not take the initiative to approach Xu Le. Instead, when Xu Le asked him, he took a few steps back slightly awkwardly and rigorously.

Its eyes were full of vigilance and even fear.

He hesitated and glanced at the soul torch branches behind him, and then looked at Xu Le.

After some hesitation, Long actually took a branch in his mouth and placed it in the direction of Xu Le.

The way it is done is like saying "I don't want to eat, I will give it to you".

Seeing such a reaction, Xu Le was a little funny, but also found it a little hard to describe.

He knew that the other party could not recognize him.

The former dragon had helped Xu Le, especially that time in the Sealed Land.

Seeing a powerful and perfect creature become like this, Xu Le didn't know what to say for a while.

It's indeed a bit sad.

"What kind of existence can hurt you like this?"

Xu Le's inquiry received no response. After the dragon gave in, he flew briefly, came to the other side of the branch, and continued to eat.

This matter seems to be more important than Xu Le in front of him.

The Soul Torch has a connection with Xu Le, and can almost be said to be a lower-level substitute for the Soul-Eating Tree.

When he put his palm on the soul torch, he instantly understood why the dragon wanted to eat the soul torch.

It is the son of Guyin Duo.

All the beginnings of Guyinduo and the birth of spiritual wisdom originated from the Huangquan Soul River.

After the dragon was severely injured, it was clear that it would soon lose its mind. Before it completely lost consciousness, it had to do something to make up for whatever might happen next.

So it gave itself the order of biological instinct to eat the soul of Huangquan.

I hope that by eating like this, I can let the underworld soul flow into my body, gradually repair my injured spirit and soul, and return to a sober state.

I have to say that it was pretty good to be able to make such a calm judgment before losing consciousness.

But unfortunately, it is too weak.

He was so weak that he could hardly fly well, could not stand up straight, and could not find the realm of the mother tree with the soul of the underworld.

The extremely weak dragon searched for the power of Huangquan's soul, and finally found the lighthouse's soul torch.

The biological laws of the soul torch are somewhat similar to those of the underworld soul, but they are not as powerful.

It has the effect of part of the underworld soul.

So under normal circumstances, if you eat enough Soul Torch trunks and branches, it is indeed possible to restore your own intelligence.

That said, chewing trees works.

But the problem is that in order to restore the intelligence of a son of Gu Yinduo, the number of tree trunks that need to be chewed is probably an astronomical number.

Judging from the dragon's current condition, not to mention regaining consciousness by gnawing on trees, Xu Le looked at its enlarged belly and estimated that it would not even be able to regain consciousness, and was afraid that it would die here.

In the process of eating the tree trunk, the dragon's body shook from time to time because he had to guard against Xu Le.

It feels like a frightened stray dog, always on guard against others attacking and persecuting it.

This kind of self-pulling behavior makes the already damaged head somewhat unbearable.

Then Xu Le saw that Long's brain fell a little...

Xu Le:......

I really lost my mind.

The wound on the dragon's head was really shocking. The huge crack, the penetrating damage, and the colorful crystal that was dug away made Xu Le understand that the dragon in front of him was probably at the end of his strength. Sunset The afterglow is gone.

Its body can't even wrap around the internal organs inside. Now, it's just dragging it to death...

Seeing it like this, Xu Le knew that the so-called communication might no longer be possible.

The Huangquan Fruit has been eaten by himself, and Xu Le estimates that the Huangquan Soul River of the Guyin Duomu Tree will gradually dry up due to this.

Dragon, there is no possibility of recovering again.

But if he only regained his intelligence for a short time, he might still have some ideas.

"I hope I can get some useful information."

Xu Le approached Long. After feeling Xu Le's approach, Long immediately reacted vigilantly.

He roared low, opened his mouth, and even let out a dragon roar when Xu Le was close enough.

hold head high! ~

But the once magnificent roar of a dragon now seems to Xu Le to be no different from the strange cry of an old mother duck.

And Xu Le now doesn't have the slightest fear even when facing a complete dragon.

After Xu Le was promoted, he never had to worry about his psychic abilities.

If each major level is calculated according to 10 minor levels, someone else's promotion to level 8 is equivalent to level 8.0.

Xu Le's promotion to level 8 is equivalent to level 8.9.

It is already the strongest state at the current level. The other aspects are just a matter of proficiency in spells and abilities.

When Long couldn't suppress his emotions and charged towards Xu Le, Xu Le just raised his palm towards it.

"Tangled fate."

The black energy around Xu Le's body rippled, and the invisible thread of fate had already wrapped around Long's body.

The dragon, unable to break through the shackles of fate, could only struggle in place.

But in the process of struggling, some more brains fell off, and the wounds on its body also burst.

Xu Le had no choice but to directly summon the soul-eating tree, letting a large number of branches wrap around the dragon, and completely pinned him to the ground, unable to move again.

Seeing Xu Le gradually approaching him, Long's body couldn't stop trembling.

As a once powerful creature, its own perception ability is also extremely powerful.

Although he lost a lot of power, his sense of danger was retained by the dragon.

As Xu Le approached, it felt an indescribable power from Xu Le.

Moreover, this power no longer seems to belong to Gu Yinduo, but a new power system.

The new dragon system is very strange. Strangeness means unknown, and the unknown may be dangerous.

The dragon is afraid.

Xu Le pressed his palm on Long's head, and the soul river leading to Huangquan was immediately cut off by him. Xu Le held the soul in the soul river in his hand and poured it into Long's body.

He didn't know if this method of soul repair was useful, but with Long's current appearance, he could only try it this way.

"Lord Long, wake up."

As the amount of souls injected into Xu Le continued to increase, Long's cloudy eyes flickered slightly.

The aura on his body was no longer manic and restless, and gradually calmed down.

As a healer, Xu Le certainly felt this change. He tentatively lowered his head, glanced at Long's eyes, and asked:

"Lord Long?"

"..."

The dragon's mouth was tied up by the branches of the soul-eating tree and could not be opened at all. Without its original power, it could no longer communicate with Xu Le through its will.

Xu Le realized this immediately, but he did not let go of the Soul-Eating Tree but asked:

"Master Long, if you are awake, just blink three times."

A bit of a joke, but effective.

Long blinked helplessly three times, and Xu Le let go of the soul-eating tree.

His sober eyes were still red, and the blood clots had not dissipated. There was some relief and relief in Long's eyes.

"You finally came."

After hearing these words, Xu Le already understood that Long might really be dying.

"Lord Long, are you waiting for me?"

Long was silent for a while, then sighed:

"Yes, your promotion speed is too slow."

Xu Le:?

My promotion is slow? Aren't you embarrassed?

"Am I slow?" Xu Le was a little unconvinced.

"Yes, for the son of Gu Yinduo, your promotion speed is indeed too slow."

"I am not the son of Gu Yinduo." Xu Le said stubbornly.

Long didn’t mean to refute:

"Yes, you are not the son of Gu Yinduo, so it is understandable that your promotion is slow."

"..."

Seeing that Xu Le was speechless, Long continued to speak, his voice a little urgent, as if he had a lot to say to Xu Le, but he didn't know where to start:

"Actually, there are many times when I want to tell you something in advance.

But the reverence for the mother tree made me suppress the thoughts of destroying the seedlings.

Fortunately, I didn't do anything particularly excessive. Your growth has been relatively smooth. The mother tree's will was right after all. "

"Lord Long, do you know the mother tree's plan?"

"Otherwise, why did you get the Light Cast from my hand?"

Long's words suddenly woke Xu Le up.

Yes, if it weren't for the dragon, he might never have been able to obtain a relatively complete body of Light Forge, and perhaps he wouldn't have been able to get to where he is today.

"Indeed."
