North of the Longya Mountains, near the big mountains.
The morning light shines on the slope through the dense branches and leaves, and a dilapidated mountain temple can be vaguely seen among the trees.
There was a big hole in the roof, and branches were sticking out from above. There is half a wooden door hanging on the door frame, and weeds are growing in the corners. Looking inside, the red brick floor is full of pits. On the altar is a clay Buddha with half a shoulder missing, sitting with his eyes closed, peaceful and kind.
"Shashasha..."
There was a sound of footsteps, and a sturdy figure appeared on the hillside.
He was a sturdy man in his thirties, with thick and round arms, and his strong muscles made the tactical vest bulge.
The strong man came to the ruined temple, stared at it for a long time, and murmured, "Hang Lei, brother, I'm back!"
After saying that, he strode in.
This strong man was Huo Zui, the former deputy commander of the Lei Guang Regiment and the current commander of the First Elite Regiment of the Guards of the Northern Alliance Expeditionary Force.
The sun shone through the holes in the temple, and Huo Zui looked at the ground in front of the Buddha statue in some trance.
There were a pile of broken porcelain pieces scattered on the dusty masonry, and they could barely be identified as ordinary household ceramic bowls.
"Twelve years..."
Huozui murmured to himself. Twelve years ago, it was here that he and Hong Lei drank the apprenticeship wine, walked out of the mountains, and founded the Thunder Fire Group.
Twelve years have passed, things have changed, the Thunder Fire Group has become the Thunder Light Group, and the Thunder Light Group has become the Expeditionary Force.
He's about to break through. In order to strengthen his determination and increase the probability of breakthrough, he returned to the place where he started.
I hope that the memories of those years can give him endless courage and strength to face all unknown dangers.
Huozui sat down cross-legged and took out a medical box from his backpack. Opening it, there were eight potions neatly placed inside.
Golden light flows in the potion, and there is a vague flame flowing.
This is a liquid gold potion extracted from the crystal core of the lord-level fire lizard. It is mainly used for power-inclined evolvers to break through and build towers and advance to the sanctuary.
Huozui took out a tube of medicine, tore off the seal, opened the lid, and said silently, "Hang Lei, protect me!" Then he inserted a needle into a blood vessel in his arm and injected it.
Immediately afterwards, golden veins appeared at the injection site, which were blood vessels under the skin, spreading throughout the body like tree roots.
"Uh-huh!"
Huge pain swept through him, and the blood vessels in his body seemed to explode. That is a sign of psychic overload. The blood cannot carry such high-intensity psychic energy, and the blood vessel walls are under tremendous pressure.
At the same time, all cells became vibrant under the wash of high-intensity spiritual energy, and the flow speed increased exponentially.
There was a dull swelling and pain in my temples, and my body felt like an over-inflated balloon, becoming light and airy.
Huozui sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, guided the spiritual energy in his body, gathered it into one force, and built a tower to reach the stars.
As time went by, the golden light on Huozui gradually dimmed. He opened his eyes, showing a hint of disappointment.
The first tributary gold potion failed.
"Captain, help me!"
Huozui growled, picked up the second potion and injected it.
Half an hour later, Huo Zui opened his eyes, and the breakthrough failed again.
"Iron cannon, gong, and running bear, help me succeed!"
Huozui called out to his departed comrade, but when he tried the third one, he still failed. At this time, Huozui's eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes, and blood was oozing from his temples.
The breakthrough method of building towers and reaching stars is to use the state of psychic overload to increase the spiritual power to the point where it can sense the earth's veins.
Continuous use of gold-liquid potions to forcibly increase the level of spiritual power will put a huge burden on the body.
But if you stop midway, the superimposition effect will become worse and everything will start from scratch.
"Commander Shen, help me!"
Huozui roared and inserted the fourth needle.
Half an hour later, it was already noon, the scorching sunlight shone on his face, and Huo Zui woke up after fainting on the ground.
The skin is covered with blood scabs, which is the blood that leaked out after the capillaries were broken.
There was severe pain in my internal organs, and my body was reaching its limit. But he still gritted his teeth, sat up again, took out a liquid gold potion, and pulled off the cap.
"Brothers, wait for me below!"
"Huozui is coming to find you!"
When a needle is inserted, it is like lava pouring into the blood vessels, and the high temperature burns every inch of flesh and blood.
"Whoa whoa whoa!"
The stout man's eyes were red and he roared crazily.
In the forest, birds flew away in fright, and animals fled.
After a long time, everything calmed down.
In the ruined temple, Huo Zui slowly opened his eyes, his eyes filled with loneliness.
"Brothers, if God doesn't stop the flames, we can only wait..."
A layer of light blue light appeared on the surface of the body, as soft and tranquil as water.
The fifth tributary golden potion, a successful breakthrough!
After advancing to the holy realm, Huozui did not stop, but took out another thing.
A small object glowing with lavender light. Taking a closer look, he saw a broken fragment of armor, only the size of a palm. The armor surface was severely deformed and covered with scratches from swords.
This is an undercurrent relic obtained in the Lizard City. Ye Yang Bailiu took special care of it and allowed him to enter the treasure house of the guard to select it.
Communicate with the undercurrents of time and space, and obtain powerful imperial spirits.
However……
Huozui pulled open the collar of his tactical vest, revealing the black mark on his chest.
The abyss mark is the mark used by the Gluttonous King to track his prey. Once the undercurrent of time and space is communicated, the location will be discovered.
But Huozui didn't think about it for too long and held the pieces of armor tightly. Back then, Tie Nuo also bore the mark of the abyss and forcibly communicated with the undercurrent of time and space.
I would rather die standing than live on my knees!
This used to be Tie Nuo's creed, and now it is also his Huo Zu's creed.
Huozui calmed down and slowly closed his eyes, feeling the guidance of the undercurrent relic in his hand.
Gradually, consciousness fell into boundless darkness.
A small light ball appeared in front, emitting a faint light like a firefly, guiding the direction in the darkness.
In the endless darkness, the concept of time becomes very subtle. Sometimes it feels very short, as if only a few seconds have passed, and sometimes it feels very long, as if countless years have passed.
Suddenly, a huge coercion came from the side, as fierce as a flood, and instantly drowned his consciousness.
In the darkness, a pair of scarlet eyes suddenly opened, like two scarlet moons, and then countless eyes opened, each eye staring, exuding a bloodthirsty and violent aura.
For a moment, he felt as if he was drowning, his chest was squeezed by a huge force, and he could not breathe.
The force tightened tighter and tighter, as if being thrown into the squeezing device of a garbage disposal truck, crushing it bit by bit until it became a piece of meat!
The power of resistance is gradually disappearing, and the idea of giving up becomes extremely strong.
"No, I can't give up yet!"
The moment his consciousness was about to be crushed, faces appeared in front of his eyes. Huozui clenched his fists tightly and looked up to the sky, roaring.
"I'll take the road you haven't finished yet!"
"I will realize your unfulfilled dreams!"
"I won't give up..."
"I won't give up!"
The silent roar shook the heaven and the earth, and the scarlet eyes all over the space were extinguished one by one like street lights, and then a violent beast roar sounded.
