Tower Defense Game: My Kingdom of Eternal Life

"Crimson...!"

The giant snake submerged in the sea of ​​blood roared in anger and fear.

It doesn't seem to have much wisdom, but those two words seem to awaken the memory buried in its instinct.

Make it repeat over and over again.

Boom!

The huge snake body rolled violently in the sea of ​​​​blood, with a huge sound, like the sound of thunder, and waves of blood hundreds of meters high were set off, washing over the submerged divine court buildings, stirring up a bright divine light.

Buzz!

A majestic golden mountain suddenly descended over the Blood Sea.

Then a melodious and solemn hymn resounded in the sky, surrounded by holy and pure white angels with wings on their backs.

Pieces of feathers shrouded in brilliance are falling in the air, making people feel like they are bathed in the spring breeze, and the whole body seems to be illuminated by the warm sun.

The arrival of the sacred mountain immediately caused the sea of ​​blood to surge. The magnificent and magnificent buildings were blooming with brilliance that complemented the sacred mountain. The golden light that rippled like water waves actually enveloped the entire sea of ​​​​blood!

Only, the crimson palace supported by the sky-reaching blood pillar always stood high above.

It's like a throne that never falls.

overlooking,

The sea of ​​blood is like a tide.

Cheng Shen, who was still in the process of evolution, could not see this scene.

The faint red light enveloped him, as if isolating him from another world.

Neither the blood waves caused by the giant snake nor the arrival of the golden sacred mountain could affect him.

certainly.

His tiny figure, compared to the endless waves of the sea, was as invisible as sand.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

…

The huge heartbeat echoed in Cheng Shen's chest, like a volcano brewing with thunder and about to erupt.

The hot blood flowed through his body, making his whole body red and steaming, like a cooked prawn. Blue-black blood vessels floated under his body surface, and were covered by fine snake scales, and so on.

.

Cheng Shen only felt that the muscles all over his body seemed to be active, like big snakes squirming under the skin.

And in this process,

The blood in his body went through new and old cycles again and again.

Each time, the replaced old blood would condense into a blood cocoon next to his heart.

And the volume of this blood cocoon is getting bigger and bigger, and the color is getting darker and darker.

Until the ninth time.

The entire blood cocoon has condensed into the size of a fist, and its entire body is dark, but its surface is densely covered with dense red patterns that look like spider webs.

Like a beautifully carved piece of art.

It is juxtaposed with the heart, extending out into branching and dense details, connected to every blood vessel in Cheng Shen's body, like a second heart, constantly pumping out scarlet and dazzling blood.

Boom!

Boom!

…

Cheng Shen's heartbeat sounded loud and clear again in his chest.

But they were connected twice.

The blood cocoon slowly contracts and expands, as if imitating the operation of the heart.

And its function is the same as that of the heart.

"Two hearts?"

A trace of doubt arose in Cheng Shen's confusion.

Is this the change that comes after the spirit-possessed warrior advances to perfection?

Although he is quite proficient in using the professional abilities of the spirit-possessed warrior, he has little research and understanding of the profession itself.

but.

He had already realized it superficially.

The main core ability of the possessed warrior is actually only the bright red form.

As for the soul form, it is more like an incidental skill learned after mastering the bright red form...

after all.

The bright red form is the fusion of one's own physical power into one.

But this only includes three basic attributes: physique, strength, and agility.

And doesn’t the spirit that is stripped out form a soul form?

Because of this.

The soul form has great flaws compared to the bright red form, although it can focus on enhancing one's own mental strength.

But it is extremely fragile.

It breaks when touched.

Not to mention the many life-saving means in the bright red form.

Of course, Cheng Shen prefers that the potential of the soul form is not weaker than that of the bright red form.

But for some reason it has not been fully developed and used.

Come to think of it...

I am afraid that no Crimson inheritor will obtain such a cheating talent as energy control.

Will use the soul form as a powerful means of combat.

Cheng Shen's thoughts gradually became a little wandering.

Then he came back to his senses.

The main source of power in the bright red form is his heart, and now having one more heart means that the power he can exert will be doubled.

This is naturally a good thing.

But very quickly.

Cheng Shen noticed something strange.

A wisp of spiritual fluctuations emitted from the blood cocoon that looked like a finely carved work of art.

clear.

Stablize.

There was no clear thinking conveyed in that mental wave, only confusion and novelty.

It's like a baby who just opened his eyes and looked at the whole world.

Cheng Shen felt a chill.

Just came here once.

Now again?!

And this consciousness still comes from Crimson’s own inheritance!

He didn't feel any malice from that mental wave, but he had the experience of a giant snake trying to invade his body.

How could he not be vigilant?

At this time.

Cheng Shen also discovered.

The consciousness originally condensed in his body by the giant snake was not completely wiped out, but was deeply hidden.

If it weren't for the spiritual power inadvertently emitted from the blood cocoon, it would be touched.

I'm afraid he can't notice it yet.

Cheng Shen was horrified by the thought of allowing a monster that was suspected of being a god and full of malice to remain in his body.

"No matter what you are...disappear all of them!"

Cheng Shen felt cold in his heart.

Suddenly.

He must mobilize his spiritual consciousness to crush those two consciousnesses.

Although one of these two consciousnesses comes from the crimson and the other comes from the giant snake, they are both extremely weak at the moment.

But when Cheng Shen was about to crush the consciousness in the blood cocoon directly.

He suddenly felt a strong heart palpitations.

The throbbing comes from oneself.

It seems that erasing the consciousness in the blood cocoon will bring him great harm, and this harm will directly affect his evolution process...

"Is this thing really the key to breaking through to perfection..."

Cheng Shen's thoughts sank slightly.

He thought of the spirit-possessed warrior who appeared in front of him.

It's two souls in one body.

Therefore, it can display the abilities of the bright red form and the soul form at the same time without mastering secret skills such as the Demonic Soul Thousand Body.

Looking at it now.

This is where the secret comes from.

After breaking through the perfection realm, a second consciousness will condense into his body!

Although, the new consciousness condensed in the blood cocoon may not be harmful to him, it can be said that they are twins in one body.

It is a state of existence that is even closer than conjoined twins.

But what Cheng Shen couldn't tolerate was that this ray of consciousness was completely independent of his control.

Who can tolerate another autonomous mind living in their own body?

But.

Get rid of this thought.

This means that he will no longer be able to embark on the path of Crimson inheritance.

Is this the price?

Is this also a price?

Cheng Shen always believed that all the gifts he received from the system had a corresponding price, but the price had not yet been paid.

And now.

He finally had to face one of the costs and make a choice.

It’s about moving on and getting used to the changes of being one and the same twin.

Or should we stop here and find another way to become stronger?

"What if...I don't choose either path?!"

The idea suddenly came to me.

Cheng Shen's consciousness sank into the blood-red body again. He could feel that the consciousness in the blood cocoon was condensing and growing. Maybe it would eventually be born like a baby and share the authority of the body with him.

Not only is this ray of consciousness completely independent, it also controls the power of another heart.

It's equivalent to having half of his body control.

if.

Later, the two had differences of opinion.

Cheng Shen would even "split up" during the battle!

He hesitated no longer.

Immediately, he mobilized the ray of consciousness that he had merged into his physical body and made contact with the blood cocoon.

Since, he cannot prevent the birth of consciousness in the blood cocoon.

Why not take full control of it!

This kind of method would have been unimaginable if he hadn't mastered the Demon Soul Qian Shen Cheng Shen.

But since he already had experience in controlling distractions, he was naturally familiar with it.

moment.

The ray of consciousness that merged into the blood cocoon disappeared, and it lost contact with Cheng Shen.

He suddenly felt a throbbing pain in his consciousness.

It's as if the soul has been torn apart.

In fact.

The impact of his consciousness being swallowed up is equivalent to damage to his soul.

Cheng Shen didn't care about the tearing feeling and quietly experienced the changes in the blood cocoon.

That consciousness grew stronger after swallowing up his consciousness.

Can be hidden.

Cheng Shen also felt a familiar wave emanating from it.

efficient!

Cheng Shen's spirit was greatly strengthened, and he immediately separated another line of consciousness and melted towards the blood cocoon.

But at this moment.

The consciousness of the giant snake hidden inside his body that he had ignored suddenly sprang out. It condensed into a small gray snake, with chaos in its bright red eyes, as if it had been lured out by the power of understanding.

It opens its mouth.

He actually swallowed that ray of knowledge in one gulp!

"Hiss... you want it too?"

Cheng Shen's face twitched in pain, and he gasped, his tone inexplicable.

"Okay, okay, I'll give it all to you!"

He said generously.

immediately.

Cheng Shen directly separated more than a dozen strands of consciousness from his consciousness, scattering towards the two like gossamers.

This is an extremely risky behavior.

Whether it is a blood cocoon or the consciousness of a giant snake, they are all manifestations of spiritual energy.

Just like Cheng Shen can increase his spirit by using soul crystals.

His separated consciousness can also nourish and strengthen them.

Let them grow faster.

Once they grow enough to compete with his main consciousness, the best case scenario is that three consciousnesses will coexist in his body at the same time!

This is a hundred times more dangerous than the original situation of twins.

After all, there is a consciousness that is the giant snake that is suspected of being a god, and it is very likely that it will be back-bitten by the opponent and become the carrier of the snake's resurrection.

He does this.

Naturally, there is a certain amount of reliance.

The Demonic Soul Thousand Body itself is a technique of controlling consciousness.

Moreover, those consciousnesses swallowed by blood cocoons and giant snakes will not be digested by them quickly.

Even if Cheng Shen wants to absorb a strange spiritual body, he must first purify the resentment and residual consciousness in it!

However, they are not in a hurry and will devour anyone who comes!

This leads to.

Some of Cheng Shen's separated consciousness will always remain in their bodies.

It was precisely because he sensed the remaining mental fluctuations in the blood cocoon.

Only then would you make this choice!

certainly.

This still has some risks.

Cheng Shen wanted to ensure that the mental fluctuations remaining in their bodies were stronger than their own consciousness, and this required him to continuously feed blood cocoons and giant snakes in order to leave enough residual consciousness in their bodies.

if.

They have autonomous consciousness at the moment.

It is completely possible to hide after swallowing his consciousness.

Digest quietly.

In this way, Cheng Shen's understanding of feeding was completely wasted, and it became spiritual food to strengthen the opponent.

But fortunately.

Blood cocoon is born.

The giant snake is in chaos.

Neither of them has yet developed a clear consciousness of independent discrimination.

so.

Don't refuse anyone who comes.

Cheng Shen's originally huge consciousness quickly shrank by a full circle.

The number of consciousnesses that a first-level demon soul can separate in a thousand bodies is one hundred, and he directly fed half of them to the blood cocoon and the giant snake.

The consciousness in the blood cocoon has flourished to the point that it is almost born.

The little gray snake also swelled to the thickness of his little finger, as if it were a thick tendon entwining inside his body.

"It's time to harvest..."

Cheng Shen thought extremely weakly.

Being continuously devoured and recognized, this kind of blow was like tearing his soul into two halves.

That kind of pain.

One can imagine.

Fortunately, it's all worth it.

Cheng Shen could feel that the mental fluctuations left in his blood cocoon and giant snake had become two bombs that could be detonated at any time.

"boom!"

He simulated the sound of a bomb roaring in his mouth.

certainly.

Neither the blood cocoon nor the little snake exploded.

But the consciousness in their bodies was overwhelmed, crushed, and took the initiative by Cheng Shen's residual spirit in an instant!

Suddenly.

Two wonderful spiritual links fed back into the depths of Cheng Shen's consciousness.

The blood cocoon was still beating regularly and slowly with the heart, while the little gray snake lay obediently in front of Cheng Shen.

"Successful."

Cheng Shen couldn't help but feel happy.

If he wanted to, he could merge the consciousness of the blood cocoon and the little snake into one at any time.

Restore strength.

It will even be more powerful than its previous peak state.

And this also means that the only drawback of the possessed warrior's breakthrough to the perfect level has been completely eliminated by him.

At this time.

On the surface of Cheng Shen's body, the metallic snake scales have been completely finalized and no longer appear frequently, and his muscles, which seem to have given birth to strange activity, have also begun to contract and condense into rock-like tendons.

Zheng!

As he moved his arms, his scales and armor rubbed against each other, making a clanging sound of gold and iron.

For a moment, Cheng Shen thought he had evolved into an iron man!

"It is a special ability obtained by absorbing the core of life."

Cheng Shen was stunned.

Then I remembered.

The evolution of the possessed warrior will not have such an impact. The scales covering the body are all additional effects from the life crystal core.

He didn't have time to take a closer look.

suddenly.

There was a soft sound in my ears.

Click!

On the surface of the blood cocoon, the dark shell covered with complicated patterns suddenly burst open with a fine crack.

This crack quickly spread to both ends, splitting the blood cocoon into two halves in the blink of an eye.

Click!

A voice sounded louder than before.

It was a faint red, illusory and slender tentacle, like a floating light band, extending from the inside of the blood cocoon, breaking the broken outer wall.

"How could..."

Cheng Shen couldn't help but frown, and when he saw the figure behind the tentacles breaking out of his shell, his expression became inexplicably serious.

"How could such an ugly thing be born..."
