Chapter 321 - Ling Ping’an’s Nightmare
Chapter 321: Ling Ping’an’s Nightmare
The huge chimney spewed out thick smoke.
Red molten iron flowed out of the cauldrons.
While the steel was roaring, the machinery was spinning.
Now, it was 100 years after the Void Storm.
Human industry had finally restarted, and it was a fair reboot!
When the first furnace of molten iron flowed into the mold, people cheered.
Hundreds of thousands of devout believers even knelt in front of the newly built factory and worshipped it.
This was a miracle!
In a few days, it came from nothing.
A huge smelting factory was rebuilt on a desert.
The soul of machines was the only thing that could produce such a miracle!
Otherwise, the Evil Gods ‘minions and descendants that were active on the continent and in the ruins would swarm over, tearing everyone into pieces.
In that case, humans were not allowed to rebuild their industries and civilization here.
The people raised their heads and saw the Holy Maiden of steel spreading her wings above the factory, patrolling the area.
“St. Elizabeth!” Everyone cheered, praising the Holy Maiden of the soul of machines.
In her hand, the gospel for synthetic beings was shining brightly.
As the machinery roared, countless holy lights spilled out of the gospel and fell into the crucible and chimney.
It made the machinery more stable, the steel stronger, and the plants around the factory more prosperous.
The soul of machines was undoubtedly the blessing and grace of God.
Therefore, the crowd became even more fanatical.
The soul of machines, the priests and monks of the religious army and the Commandment Hall took the opportunity to organize the believers and began to praise the great soul of machines.
“Ring the big bell once…”
As hundreds of thousands of people knelt down and recited the gospel devoutly, the light in the Gospel for synthetic beings in Elizabeth’s hands became even more brilliant!
Elizabeth felt the vibration coming from the Gospel for synthetic beings.
It was a call from another world.
The soul of machines was the same as her.
…
Han Li slowly sat on the ground.
In front of her, the raging fire was burning violently.
A small gray pot was placed on the fire.
She took out a tube of blood from her body.
It was blood which shone like a diamond.
It was the blood of laziness and original sin.
She threw the extremely precious blood of laziness into the raging flame.
Therefore, the raging flame became gentle.
Xiaoai, who was in Han Li’s clothes, shivered and curled up her small body.
She was scared.
Because she sensed that the small flame in front of her had turned into a real flame that could dissolve all things and even destroy the world!
“Don’t be afraid!” Han Li comforted Xiaoai.
The rustling voices in her ears had already made a comeback.
Strange words were reflected on her pupils, which became frozen.
This was the true formula and secret of the Freedom Potion.
Han Li looked at the ball of flame that seemed to be about to go out.
When the color of the flame slowly turned white.
She gently took out the flame demon’s pith and the succubus essence soul and threw away the small pot.
The small pot was lent to her by the mistress of the bone fort.
It was said that it had a great history and was owned by an ancient god.
Unfortunately, that God died in the divine war and even his divine kingdom and divine spark were swallowed by the astral world.
Only this divine pot of the past was tossed around in the multiverse and finally fell into the hands of the mistress of the 471st Abyss.
As soon as the flame demon’s pith and succubus soul essence fell into the small wok, they immediately began to revolve within.
Demon Phantoms emerged from the small wok one after another.
These demons were still at a loss and ignorant.
As Hanli watched, a cold smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
She then raised her hand, tore apart the flower of greed in her hand, and threw it in.
The fragments of the flower of greed soon fell into the small wok.
These demons instinctively began to chase.
This was their nature!
Selfishness, chaos, greed…
Under the stimulation of the flames of fury, it was easier for them to fall into madness than before.
Han Li watched and threw the last ingredient in.
It was a bottle of desire essence!
As soon as the desire essence fell into the small pot, it immediately boiled.
Thick smoke rose from the pot.
The demon souls in the pot screamed.
As they screamed, they began to merge.
Fury, greed, desire, laziness…
These were the things that demons loved the most.
Han Li took a deep breath. She knew that this was the most critical moment.
She stared at the small pot and stretched out her hands.
Silently facing the small pot, she released her psionic power.
Psionic power continuously fell into the pot and mixed with everything.
Finally, the flame was extinguished.
The thick smoke also disappeared.
The small pot completely shattered.
A white pill was spinning on the ground.
That was the Freedom Potion!
Mr. Yamel’s masterpiece!
Han Li bent down and picked it up.
Under Xiaoai’s frightened eyes, she threw the pill into her mouth without hesitation.
Gulp!
The pill was swallowed into her stomach.
Han Li immediately covered her body in pain and half-squatted down.
Her entire body began to tremble.
The shadows of demons emerged from her body one by one.
They were the monsters, evil spirit, and even demons that she had devoured before!
Her eyes turned blood-red, and light burst out from her retina, making her head become illusory.
Layers of demonic skin grew out of her body and then faded.
The temperature of her body rose rapidly!
A terrifying aura overflowed from her body.
Xiaoai shivered as she felt this aura.
This was because her soul could sense that this was an unprecedented strange aura.
It wasn’t a demon, a devil, an angel, or a human.
She wasn’t even a god.
Han Li clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging into her flesh. She felt as if there were countless sharp blades stirring in her flesh.
The pain almost killed her, but she was still alive.
Her long-term cultivation had made her will as firm as steel.
When she endured the tribulation, all the pain and torture were kept at bay.
As she stood up, her eyes slowly returned to normal.
However, if one looked carefully, one could still see that her eyes were like beautiful almonds.
A faint golden color was hidden in the depths of her black and white eyes.
Han Li lowered her head and looked at her hand.
It was as white as jade and crystal-clear as snow.
When it was gently opened, it was an iron claw!
She had succeeded!
She shook her body lightly and layers of filth fell down continuously.
These were the corrosion and influence of the Abyss in the past.
Those things that were devoured and digested.
This was also the powerful and terrifying aspect of the Abyss!
Even if it was a god with a kind nature, once it was eroded by it, it would inevitably be eroded by it.
When one stared at the Abyss, the Abyss was also staring at oneself.
Many people thought that they were the exception and special.
But little did they know that they had fallen into the Abyss’s calculations.
There were countless people in the multiverse who were silently corrupted and degenerated by the abyss.
Whether it was a powerful god or a holy angel, the Abyss always had a way to capture its target.
But now, the Abyss had failed!
It would never, ever, be able to corrode and corrode Han Li Again!
On the contrary, Han Li opened her mouth. She stuck out her tongue and licked her lips.
From now on…
She became the Abyss’s Hunter!
When the Abyss stared at her, she would also stare at the Abyss!
Vaguely, Han Li understood her own path.
Eating the abyss…
Devouring the Styx…
In the end, she would become the Abyss Devourer.
This was a path that went all the way to the past, and even pointed to the gods!
Of course, she was still very weak now, and it was far from enough to become the Abyss Devourer!
But what did that matter?
From today onwards, the times had changed.
Hunters would become prey!
It was her turn to hunt the Abyss!
“Let’s go!” Han Li said to Xiaoai who was in her clothes, “We should go back…”
Hanli knew that she should go there to find the next path.
That bookstore.
Everything and the starting point.
There was the “Upper Abyss Research Report”.
Xiaoai carefully poked her head out, feeling the aura of this human.
It seemed to be the same as in the past.
However, the inborn talent of the sky-piercer clan made her understand that the essence of this human’s life had changed.
She was no longer a mortal.
“A divine creature?” Xiaoai carefully sensed it. “It’s a little similar…”
However, the soul of a divine creature couldn’t be so strange.
Xiaoai could feel that this human’s soul was now in an extremely strange and terrifying state.
Just by feeling it, Xiaoai realized that her soul was afraid.
It was as if she was facing a natural enemy.
“An archaic evil creature!” Xiaoai suddenly remembered.
It seemed that archaic evil creatures also had similar souls.
Nevertheless, this was clearly a human!
Moreover, from her soul, Xiaoai didn’t feel the craziness and distortion of the archaic evil.
Instead, she tasted a bit of holiness and holiness.
A holy archaic evil human?
Xiaoai was in a mess and did not know how to evaluate it.
At this moment, the human suddenly thought of something. She stopped and reached out to grab Xiaoai.
Her hand was like a warm jade, gently holding Xiaoai.
But for some reason, Xiaoai only felt her soul tremble.
It was like a prey being bitten by a ferocious beast.
She was so scared that she didn’t even dare to move.
“Don’t be afraid…” The human looked at Xiaoai. “I’ll help you cut off the corrosion of the Abyss!”
She suddenly exerted strength in her hand and pulled a thick rotten string from Xiaoai’s body.
Then, she stuffed it into her mouth, chewed it, and swallowed it.
“It’s fine now!” She said.
Xiaoai looked at the human dumbly.
She felt her body become much more relaxed.
But at the same time, she seemed to have lost something important.
In the next second, she found that her body began to grow.
The little thing that was less than ten centimeters slowly became a little girl.
She looked at the human.
“What did you eat?” Xiaoai asked.
“I ate the things that bound and corroded you!” The human replied, “There were two of them…”
“One came from the Abyss…”
“The other one, I don’t know where it came from…”
She laughed, “You won’t blame me, right?”
Xiaoai was stunned. For some reason, she suddenly laughed and thanked the human seriously, “Thank you!”
The Abyss was corroding her.
But wasn’t the heavenly realm the same?
And now, with the help of this human, Xiaoai knew that the two forces that were pulling her at the same time had been destroyed.
From now on, she was free!
…
In a daze, the rustling sounds in Ling Ping’an’s ears gradually became rhythmic.
It seemed to be some kind of radio signal.
When he realized this, he felt that he could understand these sounds.
He just needed to decipher them.
The countless numbers rampaging in his mind caused a bit of a headache.
As someone who didn’t even know calculus until now, what was he talking about? He didn’t even know.
He looked at the inexplicable numbers and symbols that popped up in his head and felt extremely frustrated.
“Can’t it be simpler?” he said.
And so, the world became quiet.
Those numbers slowly turned into images in his mind.
On the desolate land, a huge factory that rose from the ground was spewing out thick smoke.
An angel with steel wings was floating in the air.
Countless people were worshipping fervently.
However, their voices could not be heard clearly.
In the sky, a pale sun was hanging.
The cold sunlight shone on the earth.
In this world, only the strongest grass could survive.
They were scattered in the wilderness.
The angel with steel wings turned around.
She landed on the ground and knelt in front of him.
She raised her head. The soul of machines sounded in Ling Ping’an’s ears, “The great soul of machines…”
“You are the Holy Father, the Holy Mother, and the Holy Spirit…”
“We will walk on your path, just like machines walk on the ground, and the engines roar…”
“Flesh is weak, but steel is eternal!”
Ling Ping’an looked at her.
Her small, metal-colored face twitched slightly.
She looked a little cute..
“Isn’t this the foreign guest?”
“Why isn’t she playing games? Why did she come to my dream?”
Ling Ping’an didn’t quite understand why he had such a strange dream.
But the dream suddenly changed.
The black-haired girl was holding a little girl’s hand as they walked in a strange-looking staircase in an ancient castle.
The staircase went round and round, spinning downwards.
It seemed to be an endless staircase with no exit.
At a certain moment, the black-haired girl turned her head around as if she was looking up at the top of her head.
Ling Ping’an was stunned.
“The guest who sent me peaches and tea leaves…” he scratched his head in his dream. “Why would I dream of these two guests?”
In his last dream, he dreamed of the foreign guest who was obsessed with stellaris.
Now, he dreamed of the guest who brought him delicious peaches, mushrooms, and tea leaves.
“Could it be…” Ling Ping’an thought of a possibility that made his hair stand on end. “I…” He swallowed his saliva. “I… Miss… spring? !”
Just thinking of this scared him out of his wits.
Therefore, he was scared awake.
He opened his eyes and heard the news on TV.
The host was talking about this year’s election with a few guests.
At the counter, Cat Bastet saw him wake up and immediately jumped into his arms affectionately.
Ling Ping’an touched it..
He took a deep breath and said, “Little Darling, do you know?”
“Brother just had a nightmare…”
“I dreamed of two guests…”
“They are women…”
“And, they might be the standard beauties in the outside world…”
“This dream is really scary!”
Meow!
The kitten meowed softly and stuck out its tongue to comfort its master.
It seemed to be saying, “There’s nothing to be afraid of.”.
Ling Ping’an shook his head. “Little Boy, you don’t know fear…”
This dream, in Ling Ping’an’s eyes, was definitely a bad omen!
Why?
Because he actually dreamed of an acquaintance, and it was a woman.
This was something that had never happened before.
This meant that something extremely terrifying was happening: He probably wanted to fall in love.
At least, he had this thought subconsciously.
It was simply terrifying!
There was nothing more terrifying than this.
Think about it…
Being in a relationship…
Was it a date? Did he have to take care of others? Was he responsible?
If that was the case, would he still have time to play games and write novels?
Therefore, this was the scariest and scariest thing!
The young bookstore owner sat at the counter with his cat in his arms and said firmly, “That should be just a nightmare… a misunderstanding…”
As someone as numb as he was, how could he fall in love?
He did not care about the height and thinness of an individual.
For him, those standards were merely concepts of geometry: Circle, square, rectangle…
