HCB Chapter 354 Fallen Leaves
Chapter 354 Fallen Leaves
The round light spreads out like a mountain scenery, and neither words nor soul can touch even one ten thousandth of the scenery in front of me.
If the sky hangs upside down and the wilderness comes again, it will be just a scoop of thousands of waves.
If all the mountains fall and the great scenery is born again, it will not be as good as a wisp of the unmistakable realm.
Laws collided with laws. While maintaining calmness and not using all their strength to attack each other, the two figures slowly distanced themselves.
"It seems that we won't be able to tell the winner in a short period of time." Xiangshan Shenjun smiled, like a fastidious gentleman, and his elegant tone made others feel like a spring breeze.
"...You don't have enough fighting spirit. What is your purpose?"
Milo's expression looked particularly serious, and he felt dissatisfied with the other party's words of praise. In fact, in the previous battle between the two, the other party seemed to have more room than himself who went all out.
Just as I predicted from the beginning, the opponent is a formidable and powerful enemy.
"Because it's not necessary. You may not understand it when you first enter this realm. There are always some irresistible things in this world. That is the 'absolute' that even people like us cannot disobey."
Xiangshan Shenjun laughed in a low voice, but there was a trace of self-mockery hidden in his pretended to be relaxed words. Compared with Milo, who had just been promoted, he had been struggling in this realm for a long time and he knew the reality of this world better.
Milo's eyes condensed, and he couldn't help but think of a certain figure. It was a figure that had always existed since the beginning of the Federation. Even now, he was not arrogant enough to think that he could compete with the other party.
He knew very well that it was an existence that was not at the same level as himself.
"Maybe you have some insights, but obviously you don't understand enough." Xiangshan Shenjun shook his head slightly, and he became talkative and began to talk again.
The two people who tacitly stopped fighting couldn't help but look at the scenery not far away.
There is a rotating 'river' there, composed of countless stardust. At this moment, due to some strange gravity, it is 'sunken' inward, and there is a faint cloud of smoke-like 'akashi' in the center.
"That is a 'world' that is being formed. Although it is because of us that the world around here will be broken, but only for it, we can also claim to be its creators."
There was a hint of nostalgia in Xiangshan Shenjun's tone, perhaps remembering some past deeds.
Milo actually didn't understand the other party's true thoughts, it was a trap... The scene of the other party's world reproducing came to mind again, and he suddenly understood it in his heart.
Probably, the other party doesn't like fighting.
"The stars have a set of names for the realm that steps out of the starry sky. From bottom to top, they are Star Lord, God Lord, and Creator. The ones above are called the Lord. Therefore, the Gao family is also called the stars in the outside world. dominate."
"Although there are other aliases on the Tiantian Mountain side, because our side is closer to the sphere of influence of the stars after all, so under normal circumstances, we will default to the way of calling the stars."
"It is precisely because of this that we are able to maintain a 'neutral' position." Having said this, the Xiangshan Divine Lord smiled softly, with a hint of ridicule in his voice.
Milo continued to listen silently.
"Perhaps you don't know that in this universe, whether it is the hell beast whose true form radiates to several star fields, or the overlords who dominate several large worlds, or even mediocre people like me who were promoted to the current level due to some adventures, people......"
Xiangshan Shenjun turned his eyes, and his dark pupils looked this way.
"Essentially, they are all existences on the 'table'. They seem to be glorious and majestic, but in fact they are just dolls in the hands of those behind the scenes. Life and death are held in the palm of their hands. This is the 'Creator' essence."
"As for the 'Old Saints' I established, most of the guys starting from the four are unwilling guys. They are trapped in this realm only due to reasons such as 'qualifications'."
"I don't take them in out of pity, but because their existence is also necessary for those existences. As a 'chess piece', I also have the obligation to maintain the basic order."
"So, what about the other two besides you?" Milo's heart moved slightly, thinking of the other two ancestors recorded in the data.
"Otonashi Ryuu has reached the top as the winner in the 'Depression Era' in the past, but essentially it has nothing to do with it now. You can simply regard it as two individuals."
"Modern Otonashi is just the new will of the broken body left behind. It has no support and no place to live, so its temper is a bit arrogant on weekdays, but it is also a very gentle guy."
As if talking and laughing, Xiangshan spoke in a relaxed tone, and then his voice became deeper.
"Although I don't know the reason why the body remains, I know very well that those guys never do unnecessary things, and they are probably planning something."
"Zhu Yan's words are similar to Otonashi's. Her own talent is not outstanding. According to her own words, she simply entered a certain ruins by mistake and witnessed a certain holy relic with her own eyes, so she transformed... Although I doubt it's 'innocent'."
Xiangshan whispered, but his eyes became colder.
"As for me, not to mention, my birth is full of chance and coincidence, and there has never been such a thing in this universe. All causes have cause and effect. There is no reason. This is the biggest doubt. .”
pat.
A tear slowly flowed down from the corner of Xiangshan's right eye, and the teardrops scattered around, flying towards the new universe in the distance.
"They will be influenced and beguiled by my Tao, and until they completely die, they will subconsciously follow my footsteps, and this is 'preaching'."
Staring at the teardrops going away, watching the teardrops merge into the hazy light group in the center, and then, a tall figure flashed past among them, and the stardust retracted, gradually condensing into a ball like a clod of earth.
"It seems to be a planet. In fact, I prefer the continental structure. Of course, the floating island model is also good." Although there was a trace of regret in his mouth, Xiangshan still said calmly.
Milo's sight briefly passed by the planet in the distance, and then left it behind. After all, even if the pregnancy is successful, it will take a long time, and there is still no guarantee of what kind of creatures will appear. It is not worth it. Distracted attention.
Milo, who had no intention of accelerating the growth rate in person, looked at the other party again, with a guess in his mind.
"That's why you joined the Doll Land because there is..." He stopped talking and did not continue.
"As long as you know what you're doing, that's why those arrogant clans haven't given up until now. In their opinion, they hold a trump card in their hands that can overturn the situation of the war. Unfortunately... "
Xiangshan Shenjun commented on the actions of the clans with a rather disapproving tone.
"What's the pity?" Milo asked, and at the same time, his heart couldn't help but become solemn. If he guessed correctly, the person behind the puppet land was probably at the same level as the president.
"If you continue, I will be punished." Xiangshan wiped his hand on his mouth, a smile appeared on his face, and then his expression became indifferent.
"So, where is Zhu Yan?" Xiangshan's breath became distant in an instant, and his slightly cold voice echoed around.
The figure of the red bird suddenly flashed in Milo's mind, and then he answered calmly.
"I didn't see that figure, and I don't know who the person you are talking about is."
"Zhu Yan is my best friend and has helped me a lot. Although I don't want to do anything, if something happens to her, I won't let you go easily." Xiangshan Shenjun looked at this side with firm eyes. It was the look in his eyes that confirmed that Zhu Yan was related to him.
"Hand her over and I will continue to remain 'neutral'. This is my only condition."
If you agree here, the Federation's advantage will be more obvious in this war. You can calmly join the main battlefield, and the main force in front of you will also leave. It can be said that it is a condition to win two birds with one stone.
but--
"...When I got there, there was no one around, no one, so I won't accept your conditions." Repeating certain sentences, Milo's expression looked extremely calm.
He rejected the offer.
It's not that the conditions are bad, it's that I simply won't accept them.
"Moreover, have you forgotten that you, who has exposed your past, do you think you can defeat me easily even if you use all your strength?"
A cold smile appeared on Milo's face, and dark flames flowed in his right eye. It was a flame colder than the coldest ice and snow.
"...I made a mistake." Xiangshan, who was silent for a moment, whispered like a sigh. However, there was clearly a smile of satisfaction on his face.
Their eyes met.
boom!
The battle started again.
The vague airflow formed a fold-like turbulence all around, and amidst the continuous violent roars, only a small area was still floating in the air, maintaining its own 'uniqueness'.
Green light appeared in Shen Wushang's eyes, and a forest aura almost spread out from his body.
Behind him, squatted a man with a face full of unwillingness. Because the range was reduced and he was powerless, he could only curl up on the ground, lamenting his weakness in his heart while looking longingly at the scene in front of him.
This is the strong man, the most powerful man standing at the top of the federation.
Shen Wushang stood at the front without changing his expression. In order to give the people behind him a foothold, he even stood on tiptoe on the edge. Of course, this predicament could not interfere with him.
It's just that... his heart felt a little heavy. The immortality of the guy in front of him even surpassed that of ordinary creators. Even if he used his full strength several times and tried his best, he would still leave some scars on the opponent's body at most.
And those scars will be erased in the blink of an eye.
Fortunately, the opponent's attack power is not too strong. It is only at the 'normal' level of the Creator, and it is not enough to break through his own defense with one blow. Otherwise, he would really have to consider losing a big loss in his first foreign war. Should I exercise for a few more years?
A 'Woundless' who can only let others attack is not considered invincible at all, it can only be regarded as a turtle shell.
A trace of self-deprecating words flashed through his heart, and Shen Wushang steeled himself again to deal with the enemy in front of him.
At least drag the other party here... He thought with complicated emotions.
["Speaking of which, I seem to have seen this aura of yours there before, but it seems a bit specious. You are definitely not a nobody."]
["Hey, after all, you are also the second guy who can take my attack for such a long time. That annoying red guy just dodges and has no future. Xiangshan is better."]
However, facing the situation of being unable to attack for a long time, although Yinwulong's external offensive became more and more fierce, its spirit became extremely active, and it was even interested in communicating with Shen Wushang.
In fact, it's not really an exchange, it's just a bunch of complaints. This guy must have always been very annoying.
Shen Wushang thought silently in his heart.
["Think about it, although the flesh and blood of strong men is delicious, it won't be chewy if you eat it all the time... Hey, let me ask you, do you have any more recommended ways to eat it? I can give it to you first. Implement it.”]
A malicious voice came, and the roar of Otonashi Dragon became increasingly louder in the air.
Correction is a very annoying guy, Shen Wushang added in his heart, while secretly ranking the other person as the third among the people he hates most.
By the way, the first two are Lu Yao who did not accept its invitation to fight, and the young girl who took the initiative to fight because it was not yet developed. Just wait, when he conquers the entire federation, he will definitely let that guy nice.
She must break that guy's mask in front of everyone and let her true nature be exposed.
Shen Wushang's mood became high and his eyes became more focused. First of all, he wanted to knock this guy down. He changed his mind. He must knock out this bastard who looked down on others.
However, Shen Wushang mustered up his fighting spirit again, and Otonwulong stopped with a solemn expression. Even its originally raised head lowered its head, and a gloomy aura suddenly spread around it.
【"...............ah."】
["It's boring, it's really boring, it's really boring..."]
Otonashi repeated it over and over again, and the original ferocious aura was visibly lowered. It raised its head and looked into the distance, and a trace of clarity flashed in its eyes that were originally wrapped in fighting spirit and mania.
Shen Wushang suddenly looked back, and saw that the mighty energy in the distance that was originally like a vast ocean was gradually extinguishing. He remembered that that seemed to be where the big boss of the ancient demons was.
Could it be that someone defeated the other party?
Shen Wushang suddenly fell into deep thought.
Otonashilong lowered his eyes, and an indescribable sadness instantly swept through his heart.
It understands that the 'fighting tool and food' that has always been with it has died, and even if it comes back again, it will only be a long time later.
At that time, he was no longer the guy he was familiar with.
When he was first born, it was that guy who left that dead, dead world with his somewhat cramped self, allowing himself to see the beauty of a whole new world.
Although the red guy on the side always bullies me, that guy doesn't know how to bully me. He even gives me its meat in a friendly manner, which is also the first piece of meat I eat.
The meat of the strong is delicious, and it suppresses other negative emotions with this thought.
After that, it followed the ingredients and the red guy around. Sometimes, when chased by strong men, a few people could only run away in confusion.
And when it looks back with unwillingness, the guy holding it tightly will stroke his head and say to himself, I won't let you die.
It was something it had never felt before, so it bit down.
It swallowed quietly and looked at the still smiling face, next to the red guy who kept barking.
It doesn't matter, he said this, and its brain went blank for a moment, and it could only stare at the other person blankly.
It smells so good, it couldn't help but think.
Sometimes, in the desolate ruins, there are various threats coming from all around, and the red guy directly flees behind the opponent. He wants to stand up, show his majesty, and defeat the enemy, but he is attracted by the meat that the person gives casually. Attention.
When it woke up, the man with a tattered body came over, still with a smile on his face.
Let's move on, the man said.
so cool!
It thought that this guy might be a long-term meal ticket. The red guy walked smugly in front, with a proud look on his face. He was clearly not the enemy she had defeated.
Zhu Yan is still like this, it's great. Next to him, the man's sighing voice came.
He must be a vain guy, words of dissatisfaction could not help but leak out of his mouth, and the man looked here in surprise.
It straightened its chest proudly. At this moment, it was proud of the new words it had learned.
later.
They have become stronger one after another, and they no longer run away.
Whether it is Emperor Zhu Yan who is famous for his unrivaled victory, the violent and bellicose Otonashi Dragon, or the erudite and wise Lord Xiangshan, they are all the pinnacle beings in this universe.
They have also established their own power, but it is still angry. Others think it is because it has a bad temper again. In fact, it feels a little uneasy in its heart.
It was as if some disaster was about to come.
really........
One day after that, they became a force affiliated with the Doll Land.
It looked at Xiangshan bowing his head to show respect to that guy, but felt a little unhappy in his heart. Why, he could obviously do it.
He is very strong.
However, it is a pity that even if he acted according to the half-baked memory, he still failed.
[It’s really interesting to want to defeat me. Even if your original body comes, you won’t have such naive thoughts. It’s so stupid that it’s a little cute. 】
Defeated, it was casually thrown outside.
It was a cloudy day with wind and rain. At this moment, it felt a little cold for no reason, but it still held some unrealistic expectations in its heart.
just in case......
However, no one came.
Left there on his own.
Didn't tell anyone else either.
As usual, he is still active as the violent Otonashi Ryuu.
“——————————”
The long silver-white hair is flying like wool, with slender little horns like branches on both sides. The body is covered with snow-white clothes as light as cicada silk. The skin is crystal clear, the face is small, and there is an invisible aura lingering around the body.
"........."
The girl with a dull expression walked forward.
Her pace was very steady, as if she were walking on a smooth road, gradually walking towards the horizon.
There is no trace of animality in her body. No matter how you look at it, she is an intelligent and beautiful king who is favored by heaven and earth.
Shen Wushang looked at the scene in shock, and a certain name emerged in his heart.
Silver leaf god.
The figure gradually left his eyes. He frowned and looked aside. The young man had already fallen into a coma.
With a sigh, he immediately gave up the idea of pursuing him, turned around and grabbed the young man, first settled the guy, and then headed to the main battlefield.
Making up his mind, his figure drove towards the distance.
Milo's face was pale, his feet were a little weak, and the aura on his body had dropped to a low point.
However, he still looked at the existence in front of him, feeling extremely puzzled.
It was the Xiangshan Divine Lord with cracks all over his body and aura scattered all over his body. Although he was about to die, he still had a smile on his face.
"why?"
In the previous battle, the opponent once had the upper hand, but in the end, he gave up and allowed himself to break the opponent's core and sweep away his power, as if he had been looking forward to this scene from the beginning.
"People live for three years, and trees live for three years. However, mountains do not. Unless there is a natural disaster, they will always exist."
Xiangshan did not answer directly, but talked about other topics, with a trace of nostalgia in its eyes.
“He who blocks the path of others is not worthy of advancement.”
"This is my destiny and my end."
Facing Milo's gaze, Xiangshan Shenjun straightened his back and looked forward with an indifferent expression. On the horizon not far away, there was a trace of ripples.
The light footsteps echoed around.
Xiangshan Shenjun looked at that scene with an expression of relief and a little worry. Then, it turned its head and looked here, and its expression became serious.
"The name Xiang Gong was given by someone from the beginning. It was also because of that person that I had my initial consciousness."
"As the 'name-giver', I must repay this kindness."
"You who have the same fate as me, this is my only warning to you, don't forget your original intention."
Milo was startled.
Xiangshan Shenjun raised his head, like a victor who had never failed. His gray eyes gradually lost their brilliance, and the last remaining consciousness could not help but recall a scene from the past.
It was an extremely ordinary world. In that world, there were no heroes, no weirdos, nothing, just the humans living there.
One day, some children ran to a small mound and played in the soil nearby. Because it had rained before, there was still some water in the depressions on the ground.
They were playing a game of pretending to be drinking in the muddy water.
They made clay figurines one after another, including four categories: "male", "female", "son" and "female". When faced with how many "children" they should make, a few people started arguing.
Some think that one son and one daughter is good, and some think that more is better.
The leading one among the children stopped the quarrel between the two parties. He pointed to the sky and talked about the most serious topic. It was getting late and it was time to go home.
The children put away their hands angrily. They didn't want to be scolded by their parents, so they left the newly made clay figures and began to go home one after another under the leadership of the child named "Xi".
Only one child named "Yun" remained. After a moment of distress, she picked up her small shovel, built a somewhat crude "room" for the clay people, and put them in it.
Then, she hurriedly chose to go home.
After that, children sometimes came to play, but as time passed, they gradually forgot about it.
Of the clay figurines that were not very well made in the first place, only the 'male' one was more perfect, with a head and a chest.
Most of the remaining clay figures fell apart and turned into broken soil on the ground.
pat, pat.
Time is meaningless to the clay figurine because it has neither consciousness nor emotions. Since it has never lived, it will naturally not die.
"If you continue like this, you will be completely dead. Not only you, but also the world. In a disaster soon, you will fall into the cracks of nothingness forever."
"..." There was no response. That was natural. There were no other people here at all.
"I have a proposal. As long as you follow my instructions, you will not only gain the ability to move freely, but also save the world. That is also a great favor to your creator."
"How about it, do you agree or disagree?"
"Haha, of course, everything is decided by you. I will not interfere with other people's decisions."
"..." Only the sound of wind echoed around.
"Then the contract has been reached. From now on, I will give you the name of 'Xiang Gong' in the name of 'Zhao Kong Yaoying'. From now on, you must always follow my orders, my chess piece."
Stab, the figure in front of me gradually becomes clear.
The silver-leaf god with a tight face and a snow-like dress slowly walked in, with a hint of lingering sadness in his pure eyes.
"you--"
Xiangshan Shenjun smiled and nodded, with deep relief in his eyes.
Poof, smoke and dust filled the air, and only a red-edged coat slowly floated down.
Silver Leaf Divine Lord pursed his lips tightly and looked at the residue-like pieces of soil on the flawless coat.
She lowered her eyes, held her coat in both hands, and her petite body gradually walked away.
Milo watched the other party leave, but couldn't say any other words.
The girl's steps were light, but a gentle expression appeared on her face. She raised her head, and her lips moved slightly as those past memories emerged in her mind.
"That year, the fragrant hills were filled with red, and the falling maples were only accompanied by silver leaves."
The girl smiled, and the slightly lonely figure gradually disappeared from Milo's eyes.
He closed his eyes and didn't look at each other.
His 'choice' was right.
