Chapter 221 The Shadow of the Demon

After the soul in the Soul Sealed Jar entered the reincarnation instrument, the entire reincarnation ceremony began to undergo tremendous changes.

The statues of various animals enshrined in the ninety-nine tombs began to emit a strange purple light, and the energy in them continuously flowed into the reincarnation instrument.

Rune, who was observing from the side, nodded silently. It is not so easy to reincarnate. Powerful energy is an indispensable condition.

Judging from the current situation, the previous demons had already thought of this, and a large amount of energy was stored in the ninety-nine statues.

The soul in the coffin was still motionless at this moment, but with the continuous injection of purple energy, the entire coffin began to shake rapidly.

The soul in the soul jar began to wail at this moment.

"Did something happen?" Rune asked tentatively into the coffin.

However, an intermittent voice came from inside the coffin, "It's okay, I'm okay, I'm fine!"

"I can feel that my body is forming quickly. I am about to be reborn. I will possess the body of a demon god and become the most powerful being. However, this process seems to be a bit painful."

Before he finished saying the word "pain", his voice disappeared and the coffin was still shaking.

Rune could feel the aura in the coffin growing stronger.

The people around also noticed it, and they all slowly took a step back.

Liad's eyes were sharp at this time. He stared at the coffin in front of him, as if he wanted to know whether this reincarnation technique could succeed.

"Colonel, if this guy succeeds, what should we do? Should we imprison him or kill him directly?"

"I think this guy might be worth studying."

As for the treatment of this guy in front of them, everyone almost tacitly assumed that he was being treated as a research subject and had never thought of letting him go free.

After all, there was no mention of any relevant agreement in the previous transaction with Rune.

However, Rune shook his head and said, "If this guy can really walk out of the coffin safely, this is definitely not the result I want to see, and it is not beyond my expectations."

"Do you mean that this guy's reincarnation will fail?" Kasruto asked softly.

Lu En said: "That doesn't mean it will definitely fail. What I mean is that if he really comes out of the coffin, his behavior is not actually called reincarnation, which means that this experiment has not been completely successful."

"He already possesses a complete soul, and his life span has not yet come to an end. So his actions at this moment are at most to build a new body. It does not achieve the effect of truly bringing the dead back to life or extending his life span."

Rune paused and continued, "And as I said before, this is a backup plan left by the demon gods. Humans are indeed very intelligent, but have you ever thought that the demon gods who have lived for a long time are not only not less intelligent than humans, but also much more intelligent than humans. Therefore, it is impossible that they have no backup plan for things related to their retreat."

"The contents of the Soul Sealing Jar in front of us are their demon seeds. Combined with their reincarnation equipment, it is actually very likely..."

At this point he paused and looked up at the three statues in the back chamber of the tomb.

These three statues are made entirely of gold, and are roughly the same as the ones on the steps before, but they are more finely crafted and more lifelike, as if there were really three vivid demons standing here.

Following Rune's gaze, Castruituo seemed to understand something. His eyes became strange, and when he looked at the coffin in front of him, he actually revealed a hint of pity.

This state of fusion lasted for three full days, during which Rune himself, in addition to recording his fusion ceremony, had sealed and preserved the other coffins.

Including the two damaged coffins.

Although they cannot be used, they also have very important research significance.

All the arrangements, formations, patterns of the entire tomb, the appearance and placement of the statues were all recorded.

When it comes to reincarnation, everyone is very careful and meticulous without any negligence.

In addition to the tombs, research on the quicksand knot of the gods has begun.

Rune was already able to decipher the pottery fragments given to him by the Soul Sealing Jar.

What is recorded in it is indeed everything about the Dragonborn Constantine, the god Quicksand Knot, and the current "Royal Capital".

According to the records on the pottery fragments, when the dragon-born Constantine came to the royal capital called "Xi Luo", the Nano people had been cursed for more than 2000 years.

The tomb was built more than 1000 years ago.

At that time, due to the special nature of the Soul Sealing Jar and the various energies it absorbed from the surroundings, the Soul Sealing Jar that was talking to Rune and the others still maintained its own consciousness.

He once tried to communicate with Constantine, but the other party ignored him and went straight to the God Quicksand Knot.

After some survey and construction, the Soul Sealing Jar watched with his own eyes as the Dragonborn carved a large number of formations throughout the royal capital, and then the world changed.

The Soul Sealing Jar could clearly sense its own location. It was no longer in the original space and seemed to have been moved to an independent world.

At the same time, the god Liushajie in the sky also underwent great changes.

Before, the God Quicksand Knot was cast by the Wanamei people using golden quicksand.

The so-called "golden quicksand" does not mean that its material is gold, but that its size, grain fullness and roundness all meet the requirements, and its structure is complete.

Only one such grain of sand can be picked out from tens of millions of particles.

This requirement seems very strict, but it is not a big deal for the Nami people who control sand and soil.

After gathering enough golden quicksand, they repeatedly screened and brewed it while carving the formation texture.

Each grain of quicksand becomes a microscopic world, thus ensuring the uniqueness and stability of the material of the God Quicksand Knot.

On this basis, the God Quicksand Knot was constructed, which possessed the power of sand and could echo the brilliance of the sun disk, becoming the cornerstone for boosting the power of ascension.

Later, under the curse of life, purple-black aster energy appeared inside the God Quicksand Knot, and at the same time it had the corrosive ability of voodoo, completely destroying the structure and effectiveness of the God Quicksand Knot.

This was also one of the important reasons why the Nami people failed to ascend to heaven later.

He was not quite clear about what the Soul Sealing Jar said and what the Dragonborn did.

But what we can understand is that since Constantine took action, the curse in the god's quicksand knot seems to have disappeared.

Strictly speaking, it cannot be said to have disappeared, but it has been suppressed and entered a rare state of balance.

But at the same time, due to the changes in its internal properties, the structure inside the God's Quicksand Knot continued to collapse.

This caused sand to continuously overflow from the quicksand knot and cover the entire balanced sand sea.

As for secrets as profound as the Sun Disc, they are not something that the Soul Sealing Jar can access.

What he was able to learn was that there was something called Linglong Stone, which was one of the important materials for constructing the solar disk.

These are all the information left by the Soul Sealing Jar on the tiles. Although not too detailed and a lot of it is only known by the Soul Sealing Jar itself, it has already provided Rune with great help.

From this he already knew what Constantine had done.

This is crucial for deciphering the trial ruins left by Constantine.

From the information left by the Demon Sealing Jar, we have learned that the reason for the formation of the Balance Quicksand is not just because of the curse within it.

In the world of Balanced Quicksand, the word "balance" is everywhere, but the original god Quicksand Jie has nothing to do with balance.

Therefore, the balance here was brought about by Constantine, who used certain means to transform the two opposing forces within the God's Quicksand Knot into a balanced state.

"The purpose of this level is the same as before. Like the previous two, the Crushed Land and the Myriad Living Things, I also need to find a balance between them."

“At the third level, the theories of the first two levels are turned into practical challenges.”

"Although I have already balanced the two alchemical spells, I still lack a third element to act as a safety net. Perhaps this third level is intended to be here."

As Rune thought about it, he couldn't help but glance at the reincarnation device beside him. Now that he understood the cause and effect, the next thing would be simple. He just had to walk the previous path again.

The curse left in the Quicksand Knot of Gods was brought by gods, specifically the god of voodoo, while the curse on the Nami people was brought by their own sun god.

Therefore, if Rune wants to understand the balance of the curse of the God of Voodoo, he has to learn from the demons in the tomb.

They are of the same lineage as the God of Voodoo and are his subordinates.

As long as you understand them, it will be of great help in researching the corresponding text.

Another three days passed in a flash.

All the extraordinary people around could see that the reincarnation ceremony had reached its final stage.

"It looks like the reincarnation was successful." Dragonborn Major General Lincoln frowned and observed, "From the smoothness and harmony of the surrounding alchemical array patterns, there is nothing wrong with it, and the equipment is not damaged. Everything is going smoothly."

"Is there really a technique of reincarnation in this world? But as Colonel Rune said before, this guy can't be completely considered a reincarnation. Everything needs to be observed further!" Ryan said.

Henry did not express his opinion immediately, but turned to look at Rune, "Colonel, what do you think?"

Rune looked at the coffin whose array patterns were flashing slower and slower, but shook his head.

"You mean the reincarnation failed?" Henry asked doubtfully.

"It succeeded." Rune added, "The demon succeeded."

"Demons? Are you talking about these three demons?" Henry confirmed it with some disbelief.

"Yes, it seems that reincarnation does have traces to follow." Rune said, "Get ready to fight, the guy inside has changed."

"Haven't you noticed? The sounds coming out of the Soul Sealing Jar are getting less and less, and it has been silent for the past two days. The energy condensed inside is completely unlike the level that a Soul Sealing Jar can produce. I even guess that the guy inside has completed reincarnation a day ago, and the remaining day is just to consolidate his foundation."

"Then they wanted to attack us when we weren't paying attention."

Just as Rune finished speaking, the lid of the coffin was pushed open by a rough black hand, and an incomprehensible language came from inside.

A tall demon with two horns on his head, holding a steel fork, stood out.

He looked down at the crowd, his eyes flashing like a sharp blade.

Although Rune and his men could not understand his language, after a short while, it became the common language of the empire.

"Humble human, why don't you kneel down when you see the noble demon master? If you beg for mercy, I might let you go."

"Become my slave, and I will grant you endless power, eternal life, and the right to rule over other humans."

These words echoed in everyone's mind, and all the extraordinary people around them stood still.

The tomb fell into extreme silence, as if time had stopped.

Until a thunderous gunshot woke everyone from their trance.

Everyone was startled when they heard the sound of the Destiny Shotgun, but then their expressions turned terrified as they looked at the demon in front of them.

They only remembered that a purple light flashed from the steel fork in the other party's hand, and then they completely lost consciousness.

If Rune's gunshot had not broken their trance, they would have either died or become true slaves of the devil.

"It's a bit difficult." Lincoln said in a low voice. Even he was affected by Shion's energy just now.

The demon god didn't care about the people waking up from his control at this time. He just looked at his palm and muttered to himself: "After so many years, I have been living in the remnant soul. It turns out that I can't control energy as freely as before."

"And this body, if there is no choice, who would be willing to choose it!"

He sighed deeply, as if he was missing his former glory days.

Then he looked at Rune and said, "You are very good, different from the others. What I said to them before was all false, except for you. If you are willing, you can be my assistant."

"I won't treat you unfairly. I believe you also know my previous identity."

"You are a smart person and you know how to choose."

But Rune didn't seem to be interested in recruiting the Demon God.

Without saying a word, he silently picked up the shotgun of destiny!

The second and third gunshots followed one after another!

But what was surprising was that the previously invincible Destiny shotgun only splashed red magma when it hit the demon.

It seemed that the shrapnel passed through his body without causing any harm to him.

The demon god spread his hands and looked at Rune provocatively, "Human, your magic weapon is very powerful, but it has no effect on me."

"As a lava demon, facing human alchemical creations is just basic operation."

"Since you have rejected my offer, I can only say that I am sorry."

"You all will become my puppets, forever and ever."
