Mythological origins

Ding Lei's left eye was covered by a faint blue light pattern, and the spiritual energy veins in his field of vision spread like a spider web to the ruins of the city hall.

His eardrums were still buzzing, and his nasal cavity was filled with a mixture of burnt and sea smells. The dark blue veins of light running under his skin seemed to crush his bones.

In fact, he never thought that one day he would become the carrier of some kind of "miracle".

Because he has never truly believed in any god, festive catchphrases like "GOD BLESS YOU" only exist as a useful social tool, like "Wish you good fortune and prosperity".

If I were not really desperate, I would not pray.

…

Following Ding Lei's eyes, Bai Mo saw the true form of the black shadow.

"Concept God?" Although he had no impression of the pattern of this totem, with his rich experience, Bai Mo could tell at a glance that the other party wanted to create a concept God similar to the Psychic Treasure System.

However, unlike the psychic point chosen by Bai Mo, which is the embodiment of "money", the concept chosen by Ceres in this life is "disaster". Of course, it can also have a more down-to-earth name - the God of Plague.

It created the "Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse" and continuously spread various disasters to human society.

Among the ruins of the city hall, the human-shaped black shadow noticed the existence of Ding Lei, or rather, Bai Mo behind Ding Lei.

It slowly raised its head, and the skull in its hand suddenly burst out with a dazzling red light.

The totem symbolizing disaster twisted and expanded, instantly dyeing the entire sky blood red.

Ding Lei's eyes were burning painfully, but he couldn't look away.

Because the flames dancing in the eye sockets of the skeleton were actually distorted human faces. With his extremely enhanced vision, Ding Lei could vaguely recognize some of them as faces he had seen once before. But now, they were all roaring silently.

"It looks like the technology has improved." Bai Mo recalled the scene of the birth of the Ghost King in the previous life and sighed softly, "Did he teach you?"

Compared to his previous life, Ceres's level of constructing sacrificial arrays has improved a lot, and he even used some knowledge at the True Immortal level. The complexity is incomparable.

Bai Mo had no doubt that in order to deal with him, Kamikaze would impart a large amount of knowledge to Ceres, allowing it to grow rapidly, and he would do the same if he were in his place.

And who knows, maybe Sakaski, the alien who created the blood clan's martial arts and died in the siege of many extraordinary humans in the previous life, has now been hooked up by Kamikaze.

After all, Bai Mo's Three Lives Stone has recorded in detail the existence and fate of these "enemies of humanity".

Everyone wants to change the future, especially those who have died early.

You killed me in the last life, so should I take action in advance and kill you first in this life?

I killed you in my last life, so should I worry in this life that you're going to kill me first?

Bai Mo created an endless chain of suspicion.

…

"You are...Bai Mo...?"

Along with a low and hoarse voice, the black shadow's body suddenly expanded, and a giant beast made of flames and bones rose from the ruins.

A beating purple heart is embedded in its chest, and its surface is covered with wriggling nerve tentacles.

Every beat of the heart creates ripples in the air.

The mastermind behind the city-wide fire was indeed Ceres.

It made a deal with Kamikaze, who would teach Ceres how to completely break the shackles from the Mother of All Insects.

In exchange, Ceres needs to do his best to kill Bai Mo.

In this life, Ceres actually has no real hatred with Bai Mo.

Bai Mo made the San Sheng Shi website public, and Ceres also secretly read the records in it when he went ashore to collect intelligence.

Compared to Bai Mo, it actually cares more about Isis, the mother of all insects. After all, the records in the Three Lives Stone clearly state that the self in the parallel world still failed, and the final outcome was that his self-consciousness was wiped out and he became a puppet of the Insect Mother again.

Such a result is unacceptable in any way.

But the Worm Queen Isis was too strong. An eighth-level existence that could stand shoulder to shoulder with the planets was not something he could challenge at all.

It tries its best, but its biggest dream is just to escape from the other party's control and gain true freedom.

Ever since his self-awareness was awakened by Emperor Liujiang during the Zerg invasion war in the Daochen Realm, Ceres could no longer tolerate himself and could only exist as a combat tool.

"die!"

It has made a deal with Kamikaze, so Bai Mo must die.

The behemoth's bony claws tore open the ground, and streams of fire like magma gushed out.

Bai Mo looked through Ding Lei's eyes and saw that Ceres in front of him seemed to be in a bad state.

There is something crazy about it.

Could it be that the drugs were too strong and damaged his brain?

With the other party's knowledge, he should be able to see that this is just a puppet created by Bai Mo with his consciousness. Even if it is smashed to pieces, the one who dies is Ding Lei, not Bai Mo. What's the point of using a killing move?

Although the Ceres in front of him was not a complete body, but at most a sub-body, it did not mean that Bai Mo would not defend himself.

As for what is the best defense, it is, of course, offense.

As soon as he thought about it, Ding Lei's right hand rose up uncontrollably, with his five fingers clenched.

A deep abyss suddenly appeared on the sea surface in the distance, and countless sea water rolled back into the sky, condensing into a giant ice crystal sword nearly a hundred meters long.

Before the sword fell, the terrifying cold air had already frozen the fire snake totem inch by inch.

The flames that remained on the streets from the tsunami were twisted into strange ice sculptures by the low temperature.

The charred cars, street lamps and even the birds that didn't have time to escape were all wrapped in a transparent ice shell, like insects in amber.

Bai Mo, who has been constantly devouring everything in the main temple world, has already recovered to a level close to the seventh-order true immortal. If he uses all his strength to transport power across the world, he will be able to bring down the fifth-order power in the main world.

The controlled Ding Lei had no expression on his face and let the formed ice sword fall down with a loud bang.

The giant beast's bone claws met the sword's edge, and amidst the explosive roar, blood oozed from Ding Lei's ear holes from time to time - after all, the enhancement of the God's Descent Technique had not yet reached the point where there were no blind spots.

His vision was torn by the strong light, but he could still "see" Bai Mo's will and how he accurately controlled every spiritual energy.

The molecular structure of the ice sword reorganized at the moment of collision, transforming into countless nano-scale ice cones that drilled into Ceres's flame core.

The giant beast that Ceres transformed into roared and directly collapsed half of the bell tower. The purple heart twitched violently, and the mucus that splashed out ignited green ghost fire in the air.

The ghosts flickering in the will-o'-the-wisp fire were the dead souls trapped in the sacrificial formation. They opened their mouths, as if they wanted to wail, but they could not make any sound. They could only twist into abstract symbols as the flames expanded and contracted. (End of this chapter)
