Reincarnation Paradise: The Crucible

Chapter 300 Mental Illusion

"Why do I get it? Don't worry about it for now. I wonder if there is a way for me, Queen Ant Crown, to make me feel how powerful that Poseidon is?"

"Of course there is."

Looking at the human allies below, the antennae on the Queen Ant's forehead trembled slightly. Suddenly she let out a light sigh and said with some surprise:

"The ultimate spiritual defense, a wonderful creation, and there is no gap in it."

"But there is no need for you to be so vigilant, Mr. Xinhuo. I am not planning to invade your brain. I just need to establish a deeper connection so that you can truly see what happened at the end of the Second Era."

Under the throne, feeling the slight strange feeling coming from his mind, Xu Yue silently adjusted the protective range of the mental barrier.

The next moment, he felt his eyes go dark. When the light returned to his eyes, the surrounding scene had changed drastically.

In front of him was no longer the underground ant nest hall, but a bloody battlefield littered with corpses.

The rich and even greasy smell of blood flowed into his nostrils. At this moment, he seemed to have the illusion of water flowing through his lungs, and even his breathing became a little faster.

Looking around, the surroundings were filled with blood mist, giving everything a thin blood-colored filter. Even the sunlight falling from the sky was dyed scarlet by this thick mist.

In the blood mist, countless beasts and insects of different shapes but huge sizes were roaring and roaring. They were like statues solidified in blood-colored glass, with bloody eyes and murderous intent, and they were maintaining a look. The posture of swooping forward, claws and fangs all exposed, with a look of madness on their faces.

Looking over the surrounding beasts one by one, Xu Yue looked behind them. A vast blood-colored lake immediately came into view. It couldn't even be called a lake. It might be more realistic to call it a vast and spectacular corpse-filled pit. , countless corpses of different races are filled in it, beasts, insects, birds, fish, hair, armor, feathers and scales are mixed together.

And among these corpses is the blood-colored lake water that is so viscous that it is almost semi-solidified and can no longer flow. Above the lake water, there are a steady stream of alienated creatures trampling on the floating corpses, jumping across the wide lake surface, and heading towards the lake. The small island in the center rushed fiercely.

Higher up, in mid-air was a canopy of flying birds that blocked out the sun. They also swooped down in the same direction.

Xu Yue's current position is exactly at the shore where the lake and the island are connected. At this time, both in front and on the left and right are occupied by the tall figures of this group of alienated creatures. Only the rear is still clear, waiting to see the surroundings clearly After the scene, a look of understanding gradually appeared on his face.

"Is this... a spiritual illusion?"

As he spoke, a metal plate engraved with a large number of royal inscriptions quietly emerged under his feet, and then, supported by the metal plate, his figure slowly rose. The environmental fluctuations here were very similar to the spiritual space, but it was obviously different. Much lower level.

In just a few seconds, Xu Yue understood the essence of the scene in front of him. This was an illusion constructed from mental memories and spiritual energy. It was obvious that the ant queen made him understand in this way. We have truly entered the end of the second era. This is completely beyond the ability of 'spiritual communication', which is quite an amazing skill.

His thoughts gradually returned to his senses. As his eyes moved upward, he looked beyond the surrounding beast tide and finally saw clearly the target of their charge. It was a huge and elegant white temple.

"Keeping your senses, Your Excellency Xinhuo, it seems that you are also quite skilled in the use of spiritual power."

While Xu Yue was still observing the temple in front of him, the lazy voice of the ant queen suddenly echoed gently in his ears, and at the same time, little fluorescent lights gathered and solidified on his side, and soon formed the queen's as if Bai Yu's body was just the same size as an ordinary person's.

Her warm eyes fell on the metal plate at the feet of this human ally. There was a little admiration in the queen's eyes. In such a short time, she discovered the essence of mental illusions and was able to condense creations through her own spiritual energy in the next second. , this ability is no less than that of the male ant leaders of his own.

Listening to the Queen Ant's praise, Xu Yue's face was dull. He had long been accustomed to condensing creations in the spiritual space. As long as he was willing, he could do more exaggerated things than the Queen had seen, but there was no need to show it. .

"It's just a small trick, far inferior to the mental illusion under the ant queen's crown that is almost the same as reality."

He lowered his eyes and looked at the surging tide of beasts below. In the blood mist, every individual appeared so real and detailed.

"It's amazing to construct such a complex and exquisite illusion in an instant. So, is the temple in the center of the island the place where Poseidon sleeps?"

Looking in the direction pointed by Xu Yue, the queen ant's eyes were full of complexity, and even her tone became a little lower. It was the being in the temple who single-handedly created the past of their ant clan. Now, And he personally cut off all their futures.

"Yes, this is the central temple of the mysterious island. The scene now is the true history of the God-killing War in the Second Era. It is a memory that has been passed down by successive generations of ant queens and will never be forgotten."

"Speaking of which, the history told by Your Excellency Xing Haiwei is not comprehensive. At least in terms of the details of the God-killing war, it does not know much, and the most important point is the original initiator of the God-killing war. Who is it? Mr. Xinhuo, why don't you take a guess?"

After listening, Xu Yue didn't even need to think too much. The Queen Ant's previous performances had clearly shown the answer to this question.

"Humanity?"

"Yes, human!"

"No matter how long it takes, no matter how many worlds we cross, you humans are still arrogant and fearless."

"As Xing Hai said, human beings had already disappeared in the late First Era, but they were never extinct. Instead, they survived the first Poseidon disaster safely. By the beginning of the Second Era, all land races While they were all immersed in anger and fear, they cleverly seized the opportunity and appeared again at the perfect moment."

"At that time, human beings all became dwarfs with a height of no more than one meter, but I don't know what method they used to preserve their wisdom. Sometimes, compared to the intuitively visible body, the illusory and invisible wisdom is often more powerful. strength."

"They wander among various groups, using their tongues to incite the boiling anger now and exaggerate the fear of the future. According to the 17th Ant Queen, that is called Zongheng."

"No matter what, human beings succeeded. They connected all the land races at that time just by lobbying. Even the civilized communities that were natural enemies of each other temporarily gave up their hatred due to their efforts and jointly owned a crazy world. The goal is to kill God!"

"In the following time, human beings hid among various ethnic groups and selflessly made suggestions for the development of all ethnic groups. They seemed to be everywhere, and they were always free from all ethnic groups. It was not until the end of the Second Age that the God-killing War finally Erupted."

"The final result is obvious. The coalition forces failed without any resistance. Only the three tribes of ants, bees, and feathers that once prospered are left. Humanity has disappeared again. So far, I can't guarantee them. Is it completely destroyed by these Poseidon disasters, or is it continuing to hide in some unknown corner and wait for the opportunity?"

"Now, human allies from a foreign land, let us see the outcome of the last god-killing war initiated by humans."

After finishing her words, the queen ant patted her palm lightly, and the stagnant time in this illusion began to flow again.

In an instant, the roar of beasts and insects was deafening, and the diffuse blood mist was torn to pieces by the roaring hurricane. Terrifying murderous intent rose into the sky. From Xu Yue's perspective, a massive tide of beasts spread across the sky and the earth, and the alienated creatures roared. They rushed from all directions to the temple in the center of the island, targeting the god who was once regarded as their father god, but now has become their enemy.

When the front end of the beast tide arrived at the square outside the temple, a heavy footsteps suddenly sounded from inside the temple, and strangely suppressed all the noise outside.

"Tap! Tread..."

As the sound of the first footsteps resounded, it seemed like a vast ocean was surging, and the pressure like a huge wave suddenly expanded from the temple. Under this majestic pressure of the gods, the rushing beast tide seemed to multiply by 0.5 times. The boiling murderous intention rushing into the sky was instantly dispelled, panic began to spread, the speed of sprinting also slowed down, and the fear of gods once again filled his heart.

Above the tide of beasts, at the moment when the pressure of the gods appeared, the sky formed by numerous feather tribes immediately caused a commotion. A large number of flying birds raised their bodies and fled into the distance, including a familiar yellow cloud.

In mid-air, Xu Yue's eyes narrowed slightly. The aura of this sea god was very similar to the octopus head he met at the transit point. His eyes swept across the slowing beast tide below, and then raised his eyes to look at the scattered birds and mixed creatures in the sky. At the same time, the ant queen's slightly cold words rang in his ears.

"The unique and powerful flying ability of the feather tribe allows them to have more flexible choices, which also leads to their cowardice and wavering. I can understand their fear, but the bee tribe's retreat is unforgivable. This has also become the bee tribe's fear." The beginning of the two ant clans becoming enemies of each other.”

The words stopped, Xu Yue nodded in approval, and then continued to lower his eyes.

After a few breaths, the footsteps in the temple became closer and closer, and a figure surrounded by faint waves stepped out of the temple. The figure was humanoid, male, but about three meters tall, wearing a luxurious blue dress, with a body shape It is not considered strong, but it is extremely harmonious. The exposed skin is covered with fine fish scales, but the face is strangely blank.

Tianji noticed the surprise in Xu Yue's eyes, and the queen ant explained:

"There is no Poseidon's face in the inheritance of ant queens in the past. Once the face is perfected, when you look at Him, it also means that He has also seen you."

As he spoke, the scene below continued to progress. As Poseidon walked out of the temple, everything fell into silence. All the alienated creatures froze at this moment, as if they had fallen into a state of time freeze again, but Xu Yue knew that this It was not the work of the queen ant, but the power of the sea god.

He stood calmly in the circle surrounded by the beast tide, and coldly glanced at the massive alienated creatures around him, speaking sarcastically.

"Ants, I brought you back to life, now do you plan to use the power I gave you to resist me?"

"Since you dare to resist God, then return to the bottom of the sea and fall into eternal silence."

As soon as the words fell, all the surrounding creatures except Poseidon were paralyzed. The beasts lay prone and the birds fell, as if their spines were broken instantly. The Poseidon's power in their bodies did not allow the hosts to resist their gods.

The lakes on the periphery of the island were also boiling at the same time, and huge waves of scarlet blood rolled up layers of water walls tens of meters high, and then crashed down.

Continuous roars resounded, more blood bloomed on the lake shore, and the entire island trembled under such continuous beatings.

After the roar ended, only Poseidon was left alive on the island. The blood waves carried the broken and shriveled corpses back to the lake, forming an extremely spectacular mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood around the island, guarding Poseidon in the center. Inside.

After slaughtering the creatures within the island, Poseidon chuckled and returned to the temple. On the periphery of the corpse mountain, those creatures who had not yet had time to board the island suddenly fell into extreme fear and fled in all directions. But at this time, they escaped It will be meaningless in the end, because the disaster of Poseidon has come.

With his vision raised, Xu Yue saw a continent that was more than ten times wider than the mysterious island. Huge waves surged into the sky on the outer edge of the continent, and countless ferocious ocean beasts set off waves and surged towards the land.

In just two days, the entire continent was almost completely covered in blue. These giant ocean beasts were frantically killing all the creatures along the way, especially those who participated in the God-killing Battle and were marked by the Poseidon. To find and kill them.

He saw hundreds of meters long electric eels stirring up thunder ponds, giant tortoises comparable to mountains destroying mountains, square jellyfish with dozens of exaggerated long beards that eroded hundreds of miles, spraying venom, and corpses everywhere...

Countless creatures were killed easily, and luck was their only hope for survival. This was the Poseidon's disaster, a disaster that no one could resist.

In the end, the disaster subsided, and only Xu Yue and the ant queen were left floating quietly above the vast ocean.

"Your Excellency Xinhuo, do you see clearly? This is the Poseidon's Disaster. This is the power of that god. Now that you have truly experienced it, do you still have the ambition to kill the god?"

"If you choose to make a desperate move because of the Poseidon's hostility, then there is no need. During the Poseidon's disaster, the Yu tribe no longer has time to care about the sky. With the ability to fly, it is not impossible for you to survive, at least better than …”

When she said this, the ant queen's words gradually stopped because she noticed Xu Yue's eyes. There was no retreat at all inside, only the more blazing murderous intention.

"The aura of Poseidon is not stable. After causing huge waves in the lake, He became obviously weak, so he hurriedly returned to the temple."

Xu Yue turned his head and looked at the ant queen who paused beside him. His words were full of affirmation, and he was not affected by the deterrence caused by the previous Poseidon disaster at all.

When their eyes met, the queen ant was stunned for a moment, and then replied helplessly:

"Yes, the purpose of Poseidon's sleep may be to recuperate from his injuries, so his aura is not stable, but that was already two eras ago."

"According to the speculations of past ant queens, Poseidon is an outsider just like you. However, he was seriously injured when he first arrived. Therefore, after he came to our world, he immediately exhausted all his divine power and created After Poseidon's Rain, while transforming the world, He is also gradually establishing a connection with the ocean through the divine power he throws out,"

"It wasn't until the connection was finally stabilized that He began to reveal himself and manipulated the ocean to devour the land. Every time it ate away a part of the land, the ocean would feed back a huge amount of energy to him, allowing him to use it to heal and improve. , the hundred years between each era is the time used by Poseidon to digest energy, so forcibly awakening it will inevitably cause some burden on Him."

"But even so, the power of Poseidon is not comparable to that of us. The current Poseidon is definitely much more powerful than what you have seen before, and since the last God-killing disaster happened, He has done everything for the entire lake. The island has set a ban, and all alienated creatures approaching the island will lose all power in an instant."

"In other words, even if our ants are willing to help, the most we can do is help you clear out the guards in the peripheral lakes and send you to the island. But how can you fight against the Poseidon alone? Mr. Xinhuo. "

Facing the ant queen's questioning, Xu Yue's face remained calm, but his mind was spinning rapidly, quickly sorting out all the information he got from her.

"Of course my strength alone is not enough to fight against Poseidon, but together with you, it will be enough."

"The ants can't land on the island, I need to repeat it again, Xinhuo..."

"No! I don't need you to land on the island."

The queen ant was interrupted by Xu Yue before she finished speaking. After being stunned for a moment, she seemed to have thought of something, and her face slowly darkened.
