561 The Ghost Emperor Descends! (1)
In the bizarre world, a scene that was even stranger than this place was happening.
In the endless fog, as Xu Qing released D132’s memories, the brain tree that was filled with greed and malice couldn’t help but tremble.
It saw an existence it couldn’t see. This place didn’t have the suppression of the Prison Department’s power, so it couldn’t forget after seeing it.
Moreover, it was a unique existence that existed by devouring memories. All of this caused the pain it was feeling to be extremely intense. In the end, it even let out a blood-curdling scream.
The other brain trees in the surroundings seemed to rarely encounter such a thing or it had been a long time since they experienced it. At this moment, all of them emitted curious emotions.
“What’s wrong, what’s wrong?”
“It’s that delicious?”
“I want to give it a try too.”
These words made Xu Qing immediately understand that these brains from the Great Void World were a little naive.
Amidst the curiosity of these brain trees, the screams of the brain in front of Xu Qing became mournful.
Regardless of whether it was the cerebrum or the cerebellum, they were squirming intensely. The brain stem even twitched and even emitted an intense struggle, wanting to retreat.
However, Xu Qing grabbed it tightly. His fingers sank into it, preventing it from breaking free. He then calmly spoke.
“Is it delicious?”
“I…” The agonizing cry of the brain tree became more astonishing and spread in all directions. At the next instant, it directly exploded, shattering into countless pieces that splattered in all directions.
Its body and soul were destroyed.
Its death caused the surroundings to instantly fall silent. No matter how naive the other brains were, they all came to their senses. All of them instantly retreated and screams rang out.
“Why did it explode!”
“What memory did it eat?!”
“What did you feed it?!”
Xu Qing expressionlessly shook the slime off his hand and fell into deep thought.
This was a method he had thought of on the spur of the moment. It could also be used as a test against D132.
In reality, Xu Qing wasn’t as clueless about D132 as he looked on the surface.
Although he didn’t know the details, he had long a.n.a.lyzed a portion of the answers from the bamboo slips that keep on decreasing, the words of the head, and various other details.
A terrifying existence was in D132. He should have woken up many times but he couldn’t remember it.
“It must be related to the G.o.d.”
“Perhaps that’s an existence that can cause everyone who sees and remembers it to fall into a curse and die?”
“Therefore, there’s a high chance that the Prison Department’s suppression is to make everyone who sees it forget, thereby severing the cause and effect?”
“Is this why I can’t remember that memory?”
Xu Qing fell silent. He vaguely remembered that the previous guardian of D132 had told him that when you thought you knew the answer, there were actually more waiting for you.
“Then before I forget, is this the answer I get? Or is there a deeper secret that I don’t know? And how many of my answers are correct?”
Xu Qing fell silent and his gaze landed on the other brain trees.
He felt that this strange Great Void World was very interesting. Not only could he obtain the demon transformation technique here, but he could also use it to probe D132.
Xu Qing was prepared to give it another try. Hence, he took a step forward and directly appeared in front of a brain tree. The other party’s body trembled and it was about to dodge when Xu Qing lifted his right hand.
“It’s very delicious. Come and eat.”
The brain seemed to be struggling but its thirst for memory still made it carefully approach and touch Xu Qing’s palm. The other brain trees also observed.
However, at the next instant, the brain tree that came into contact with Xu Qing trembled intensely and let out a mournful cry. Just as all the creases on it distorted intensely and were about to explode, Xu Qing quickly spoke.
“What did you see?!”
“I saw…”
Before it could finish speaking, the brain tree shattered into pieces.
Xu Qing’s expression was ugly. He turned his head and looked at the next brain tree.
All the brains in the surroundings instantly retreated. All of them emitted clear fluctuations of horror and left crazily.
Xu Qing was a little unwilling. Hence, he chased after one of them and soon caught up to it. As the other party screamed, he came into contact with it and spoke softly.
“Come, it’s delicious.”
Just like that, time flowed by. Three days later, when the time limit was up, the big fish waiting in front of the statue sucked forcefully. Immediately, Xu Qing’s figure appeared in the big fish’s body.
As the big fish turned its head and returned, Xu Qing, who had appeared in its body, turned his head and looked at the statue. His eyes were filled with regret.
“Unfortunately, I didn’t completely probe the answer and only found a portion. If I had more time…”
Xu Qing muttered inwardly. He felt that this place would become the place where he could unlock the secrets of D132.
“It’s just that the amount of military contribution points to enter here is too much.”
Shaking his head, Xu Qing lifted his hand, revealing a rune that bore resemblance to the brain tree, floating in his palm.
This was the contract with the Great Void World.
Every trial taker who came here would be given such a rune as a contract after they successfully satisfied the brain tree, allowing them to transform into demons in the future.
Moreover, other than the cultivators bearing the consumption of transforming into demons, the Great Void World would also share a portion of the consumption.
