Chapter 4008 The Song of the Purple Moon (59) — The Sea God
The only impression I had was that it was enormous.
This continent, suspended in the [Deep Space Forbidden Zone]... is the dwelling place of the Asuras.
Pure-blooded Asuras can carve out their own territory here—there are unique rules here.
Asuras are not allowed to attack each other, except in the [Battle of the Emperors].
At this moment, in a gray-white palace nestled among snow-capped peaks in a corner of the continent, the seventh Asura, [Yaronig], who had been locked in a stalemate with the fifth Asura during this [Battle of the Emperors], suddenly opened his eyes.
"What's wrong, Yorniger? It's rare to see you so distracted."
The one who spoke was an Asura with an extremely unique posture... Its whole body was grayish-white, and it had a humanoid female posture, but it had an exoskeleton similar to an insect. The outer shell around its body was like a silkworm cocoon, and its arms were extremely long, almost reaching the ground.
Like a butterfly that failed to emerge from its chrysalis.
Nevertheless, its voice was extremely soft, completely lacking the sense of dominance one would expect from someone who stands at the pinnacle of the [Void Elemental Demon], more like... a neighbor's older sister?
【Void Asura】, the thirteenth Asura, 【Maggie】.
Upon hearing this, [Yaroni] pondered for a moment and said, "For a brief instant, I felt as if some of my power had been stolen from me... but it was very insignificant."
"Steal?" The thirteenth Asura asked in surprise, "Could it be that the others couldn't wait any longer?"
【Yaroni】 slowly shook his head, “No, it was in a very far place, and it must have used some kind of special ability... Moreover, I seem to have also sensed the aura of the 【Root】.”
Upon hearing this, the Thirteen Asuras [Maggie] immediately fell into deep thought.
Primary primordial demons cannot think. Although they possess a certain degree of "wisdom" after evolving into progenitors, they mostly act on instinct... Only the Asura is special, possessing not only complete wisdom but also a unique personality.
"The Root..." Maggie's limbs, gathered in her abdomen, swayed rhythmically as she spoke uncertainly, "The Root, in theory, shouldn't interfere in the War of Emperors... Its only opponent has always been Fate."
“I didn’t say it was the [Root] that was causing this.” [Yaroni] shook his head again. “I only vaguely sensed its presence. Let’s not talk about that anymore. The little bit of power I lost can be easily replenished… Let’s get back to what you were saying earlier.”
Maggie nodded.
Even the Asura group, which is extremely special within the Yuanmo race, needs to be extremely cautious when it comes to the issues of [origin] and [destiny].
Blessed by the will of the void, they are immortal... but the [Root] possesses the ability to completely annihilate them.
“Oh… that’s how it is.” [Maggie] said slowly, “My pet discovered two new Shura on the edge of the forbidden zone, who called themselves the [Dragon and Tiger Brothers], I think.”
"What a terrible name!" [Yaroni] shook his head, then pondered, "Is it mixed blood?"
“I don’t know.” Maggie shook her head. “Without a formal meeting, I can’t judge their purity, but one thing is certain: they should have been born somewhere on the four sides.”
"Could it be a Shura inverted form?" [Yaroni] frowned. "If that's the case, it's just ordinary mixed blood, which is useless to me."
"I think we should still get to know each other," [Maggie] said softly. "After all, we haven't had any newcomers here for a long time. Don't look down on mixed-bloods, Yornig. Wasn't your current opponent once a mixed-blood himself?"
"Hmph, just a lucky guy!" [Yaroni] shook his head. "Whatever, I'm hungry!"
After saying that, the Seventh Asura flew directly out of the snow-capped palace—below the snow-capped peak was an endless "ocean" where the Yuan Demons of the Void dwelled!
Within this place, there are countless primordial demons, and Void Primordial Ancestors can be seen everywhere... There are even Void Demon Gods whose size is comparable to a small mountain!
When the Seventh Asura set out, all the primordial demons along the way offered him "food"...
……
……
……
……
[Purple Moon], inside the maze.
What...what just happened?
All of this happened so suddenly that even with the mindset of an immortal being, it's difficult to clearly discern an accurate line of thought.
Miss Witch gasped instinctively.
Basically, Miss Long suddenly rushed forward, but was easily suppressed by Caesar, who had some spare strength—at this moment, that very handsome man seemed to have had enough, or something like that, and made his move.
Moreover, it was a one-sided, crushing, and direct suppression—the moment Caesar was pinned to the ground, even the witch, who had at least slightly adopted Ah Xi Ruo's perspective, felt incredibly satisfied.
As for Caesar's screams and his expulsion... in short, Zhang Bolu and the others, as spectators, only had one feeling.
I was completely stunned.
"...Jack Sparrow lost the Black Pearl, and it's no wonder he did so." Zhang Bolu shook his head slightly and sighed, "It seems a formidable 'pirate' has arrived at the Gorge of Freedom and Wildness."
“Boss…” [Xiang Feihu] looked at his own boat captain with surprise and uncertainty.
Zhang Bolu simply shook his head slightly.
A sudden silence fell over the group... Captain Luo's methods had exceeded their comprehension.
Zhang Bolu, the strongest among them, could not sense even the slightest bit of Captain Luo's power during the entire confrontation between Caesar and Captain Luo.
It's as if Captain Luo simply said one sentence, and then everything proceeded according to his will... This is somewhat similar to the "words become law" of the Eastern Immortal Clan, but it seems to be a more advanced form?
……
"...Hey, is it okay for you to suddenly attack like that?"
Ah Xi Ruo was the first to break the silence, knowing that her man preferred to be an observer—his abilities were too unstoppable, and if he didn't restrain himself, anything he participated in would become meaningless.
Therefore, whether in the original 003 world or in the void, this nemesis always likes to deliberately reduce his presence.
Isn't this actually another kind of loneliness?
Especially since he had to take action because of his own affairs—at least, that's what Ah Xi thought... To be honest, even though they had already formed a fusion relationship, the true dragon of Shenzhou was indeed impressed by the little man's handsomeness just now.
"Why not?" Boss Luo said calmly.
“In that case…” Ah Xi Ruo glanced at Xiang Fei Hu and the others who were observing from a distance with different expressions, “Won’t it be difficult for you to get along with Hua Mei and the others from now on?”
"Is Miss Long worried about me?" Boss Luo asked, blinking.
Ah Xi Ruo said irritably, "When you're not talking, you're actually quite pleasing to the eye??"
Boss Luo smiled calmly, "It's just a different way of getting along. I've never intended to hide it from anyone."
Ah Xiruo paused, and a question suddenly arose in her mind that she wanted to ask but dared not.
—If you don't intend to keep it from everyone, then... what about Ren Ziling?
—Will you confess someday?
But Boss Luo didn't say anything after that. He just glanced at the maid and walked straight toward Zhang Bolu and the others.
……
Since the Pirate Kings and the others aren't taking the initiative... or rather, they don't know how to take the initiative, then Boss Luo will take a few more steps.
Before Captain Luo arrived at Zhang Bolu's place, he asked with a smile, "Captain Zhang, shall we head to the Flower Sea next?"
Everyone was immediately filled with surprise and doubt.
—No... even after all this, why are you still acting like nothing happened??
The witch and [Xiang Feihu] subconsciously looked at Zhang Bolu.
Zhang Bolu's gaze was fixed, and for a moment he seemed to hesitate. "Captain Luo, don't you have anything to tell this old man?"
"Captain Zhang seems quite puzzled about my identity." Under the surprised gazes of everyone, Captain Luo slowly said, "Well then, how about this? I'll give Captain Zhang a chance to ask questions. You can ask about my identity, or any other questions you may have. I will answer them for you free of charge."
Upon hearing this, Testarosa's expression changed slightly.
She knew all too well the significance of Manager Luo's words "free of charge"—if he mentioned any other issue, then it truly was any other issue!
Even she couldn't refuse such an opportunity!
However, it is clear that this opportunity was given because the Pirate King was unaware of Shopkeeper Luo's identity.
As for her, it's impossible for her to get such an opportunity.
However, this new Lord of the Holy Land... or rather, as expected of the Lord of the Holy Land, truly knows how to manipulate people's hearts. A simple question has become anything but simple.
“You said…” Zhang Bolu was taken aback, and frowned, “Any questions?”
“Yes, any question, and I can give you an objective and truthful answer.” Captain [Lo] nodded. “But only this once, and only this one question.”
So, is it... the other party's true identity, or something else entirely?
The witch was immediately intrigued by this choice.
She really wanted to know what kind of guy this inexplicably attractive guy was, but if he could answer other questions... it seemed just as appealing?
"Boss?"
Seeing Zhang Bolu remain silent and unable to make a decision, [Xiang Feihu] couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
Zhang Bolu sighed softly, looked at Li Huamei and gently shook his head, signaling her to be quiet, before saying in a deep voice, "It seems that Captain Luo wishes to continue interacting with me under the identity of the captain of the Black Pearl."
Captain Luo smiled slightly, his smile containing a great deal of meaning.
Zhang Bolu gave him a deep look. "Since that's the case, I won't ask about Captain Luo's background... As for other questions, hahaha, I don't have anything I want to know for the time being, so you don't need to answer any questions for me."
Captain Luo said, "Are you really going to give up this opportunity...? There might not be another one like it in the future."
Zhang Bolu chuckled and said, "If I knew your true identity, I'd probably regret not choosing the second option. If I chose to ask other questions, I'd be unwilling to accept it and would want to know your origins, how you knew what I was asking, and how you knew the answer. No matter which option I choose, it will always cause trouble. Since that's the case, why should I make things difficult for myself? Hahaha! [Luo] Captain, you like our current way of getting along, and I don't necessarily dislike it!"
—If you don't want this opportunity, give it to me! I want it!! I'd even take out a loan for it!
The witch roared inwardly.
Captain Luo thought for a moment and said, "Captain Zhang's words are always thought-provoking... Here's what we'll do: I'll keep this choice for you until I leave the Gorge of Freedom and Wildness. That promise will remain valid."
Zhang Bolu had no objection and then seemed to have completely put the matter aside. "Let's go. To get to the [Purple Moon Flower Sea], we first need to..."
Just then, Little [Mimi]... no, it should be said that the [Golden Nightmare Maze] began to shake once again, and quite violently at that!
Ah Xi Ruo subconsciously picked up the now shriveled little [Mimi], her gaze unfriendly, "What are you up to in secret?"
—【I didn't do it, it wasn't me, it came from outside!】
"Outside?" Ah Xiruo frowned. "Really?"
The outside of the maze... that is to say, it's either the deep underground of [Purple Moon] or the temple above the maze?
As if to prove herself, Little Mimi suddenly opened her eyes wide and shot out a flash of light.
The next moment, the people covered by the flash of light vanished into thin air in the heart of the maze... Then, their vision suddenly opened up!
"This is... a temple?"
The group had actually appeared outside the maze—before them, black tentacles, like dense tree roots, were intertwined and turned into a black "ocean"!
Within this black "ocean," a silver-black pillar of light shot into the sky—the very location of the temple ruins submerged by the black "ocean"!
—【That's what caused it!】
Little Mimi hurriedly gestured.
The soaring silver-black pillar of light, like a fountain, began to ripple outwards from its highest point—this was an erosion of space!
Above the completely eroded temple space, a strange, chaotic scene was now revealed.
At the same time, the entire temple space had become extremely humid without anyone noticing, with a thin mist filling the air.
“This fog…” Zhang Bolu frowned.
Ah Xiruo pondered, "The power contained in this mist... I feel like I've sensed it somewhere before..."
"A divine statue!" [Xiang Feihu] suddenly exclaimed, "Xi Ruo, the power of this mist is from the same source as the faint aura emanating from that [Sea God] statue!"
"[Poseidon] Kalithorpe?"
“Xi Ruo, do you remember what Corybusor once said?” Li Huamei hurriedly said, “It is a guide, which will eventually be brought back by the banished [Sea God], but no one knows what the returning [Sea God] is…”
“That little brat did say that…” Long Xiruo frowned and said, “We didn’t find the treasure, but we’ve got a lot of trouble! Since this is the path to guide the [Sea God] back, let’s just destroy it! Let that [Sea God] continue to drift in the void!”
Without saying a word, the true dragon of Shenzhou unleashed a "dragon aura" beam towards the source of the pillar of light—it didn't use any [Holy Marks], but the aura of the "dragon aura" was still of a high level.
Although this aura gave people a rather high-class... even noble feeling, its power was really unremarkable in the eyes of the [Pirate King] - of course, Zhang Bolu was somewhat used to Ah Xiruo's performance, which was sometimes strong and sometimes weak.
This can even be more effective at confusing the opponent, right?
At this moment, the "dragon energy" light wave struck the source of the light pillar without any obstruction, and instantly a roar of a blue dragon resounded!
But the next moment, the space at the source of the pillar of light was completely distorted by a strange force... The "dragon energy" that was blasted out was directly shattered by the distortion of space!
Ah Xiruo frowned. At the same time, the beam of light suddenly increased several times, annihilating the surrounding tentacle "ocean" and clearing out a large area of land that had been completely melted and turned into a crystal mirror!
Standing in the open space was a woman wearing a navy blue dress...
A woman with striking, beautiful features!
But below this beautiful woman's abdomen, there was a... "hole"!
At the same time, an aura similar to that of the Seventh Asura projection that had just been erased also spread silently.
……
"My god, this is the real deal! Not that cheap stuff like the Seventh Asura..."
The witch was so scared she almost peed her pants!
