Devouring the Starry Sky begins with the battle of geniuses

Chapter 120: The core of the flesh-and-blood mother tree at the bottom of the abyss
In fact, it was not that Hunzhen had never thought of taking the imperial guard, which seemed like a shortcut at first glance.

After all, the knights are entrusted with the blood of the king, but the imperial guards are directly affiliated with the temple and are responsible for the protection of the Silver Ghost King and the Silver Temple.

What Hunzhen wants to achieve is nothing more than an identity that allows her to get in close contact with the Silver Ghost King and wait for the best opportunity to seize his body.

In addition, let the simulated person try to seize the body and see if he can survive for at least one day to determine whether there is a possibility of success in seizing the body.

Needless to say, the latter has now been confirmed.

When it comes to the former alone, it doesn't matter if you can achieve this goal, regardless of your status, whether you are a knight or a guard.

However, whether it was the prompt from the opponent's side tap during the communication with Mililata, or the direct failure of the simulation after trying to choose to become a royal guard during a simulation, it was proved that this option had big pitfalls.

Coupled with the previous reminder from the Star Prison Demon Lord, he wanted to touch the inheritance of knights or demons first.

After becoming a knight, you can connect with a king's blood. You are not just a protected person like before, but you have the opportunity to talk to other nobles on an equal footing.

At least in terms of status, that's the case.

As for those knights who despised themselves and flattered the nobles, it had nothing to do with his innocence.

After obtaining this ticket called identity, the next step is naturally to continuously improve his status in the Silver Ghost Clan.

Gradually climb to a height where you can contact the Silver Ghost King.

This was the original plan of innocence.

But people are not as good as heaven.

Before he could launch his plan, the Silver Ghost King personally lowered his profile and recruited the simulators.

All the previous considerations were naturally inferior to the opportunity that came to my door now.

If nothing unexpected happens, within ten years, as long as he follows the steps, he will be closer than ever to his long-cherished wish when he first entered the abyss of purgatory.

"Cough cough!"

Hueckel's weak coughing sound came from beside him.

Hunzhen clearly realized that the several tests starting from reaching the seventeenth level of the abyss were testing more than just pure strength.

There is also adaptability to the energy of the abyss.

The strength of the nine Domain Lord level winners was not very different, but nearly half of them failed to pass the test in front of the first temple gate.

From that moment on, Hunzhen knew that even if their strength was similar, different people had different resistances to the pressure of deep dives and the energy of the abyss.

Not surprisingly, the requirements for becoming a knight are higher than those for a royal guard.

The twisted monsters in the Prison of Thorns are not weak, even reaching the fifth level of strength at the latest, but they just lack the sense to use them.

It is impossible for ordinary people who come to the trial to fight these many monsters and survive for a year.

The correct approach is to integrate with the energy of the abyss as much as possible to reduce the probability of being regarded as a hostile target by twisted monsters.

In this process, the adaptability to the energy of the abyss is gradually enhanced, and finally there is hope to truly absorb the power of the abyss and transform into a demon.

That is a talent that only a very few chosen people possess.

At the very least, judging from the daily energy consumption, Hunzhen thinks that he is not like this.

Without the recovery ability of the simulation system, he would have to survive the one-year period and take the route of crushing with absolute power.

Any rules or restrictions will naturally no longer be effective once they have strength beyond limits.

But Huckel is neither the chosen one nor has the power to crush him and pass the examination.

Visibly to the naked eye, flesh sprouts were sprouting out of Huckel's body, and the largest cluster even had a scarlet eyeball growing out of it.

This new-born eyeball has pure eyes, peering into the world with curious eyes.

On the other hand, it was Huckel himself, whose eyes were cloudy and his face became increasingly ferocious.

Several times, he silently peeked at Hun Zhen's back, showing a ferocious struggling expression.

Perhaps he was aware of his own end, and realized that even if he attacked Hun Zhen by surprise, he would not be able to redeem himself.

After all, he failed to take action and did not dare to take action.

Finally, January is here.

Flesh shoots suddenly burst out from the earth-like ground, wrapping around Huckel's body.

The granulation from the ground intertwined with the granulation from Huckel's body, and was about to completely engulf Huckel.

"I envy you so much."

Huckel's eyes lost their light, his unfocused eyes looked straight at the innocent, and he said the last words of his life.

Constantly struggling and climbing, defeating countless competitors, and reaching this position, just to obtain the status of the lowest noble who barely has to bow to the royal family of the abyss...

In the end, he failed to succeed and turned into a monster body, which was absorbed by the Prison of Thorns, waiting to transform into a new monster in the future.

This is the end of Huckel's life, and the end of countless inferior races.

Hunzhen felt sad for them inexplicably, shook his head, inherited today's simulation gains, and returned to his peak state.

Even if he is at odds with the Abyss, as long as he has seventh-level strength and does not encounter a small probability of accidents, he can break through the Prison of Thorns with hard power.

There is no difficulty for Hunzhen.

At the end of the year, the door opens, and countless twisted monsters fall into sleep again.

As stated in the simulation record, an abyssal crystal core fell from the sky.

Along with it, there are instructions for the final assessment, as well as a special secret method.

Only with this secret method can the abyss crystal core be turned into fuel and the discoloration core be temporarily activated.

Hunzhen took the abyss crystal core and strode towards the passage behind the gate that led directly to the bottom of the abyss.

It was a lightless road without any light at all.

Even with Hunzhen's current strength, he could barely detect a hundred meters nearby by using his telekinesis.

What followed was a deep dive pressure that was even more terrifying than before.

This is also of course.

At the bottom of the Great Hollow, where the wind-eating phenomenon originates, the pressure of deep diving is so strong that even the weaker abyssal nobles may lose control and die suddenly.

Even with pure strength, you will feel severe discomfort due to this.

In addition, ghost-like phantoms will pass through the lightless passage from time to time.

The aura of these ghosts and phantoms feels very close to the twisted monsters in the Prison of Thorns, but it is ten times more terrifying.

Just talking about the smell is terrifying.

However, the strange thing is that they are not aggressive and seem to be just wandering around harmlessly.

Perhaps others will slow down because of fear of this unknown phantom.

However, after initially confirming that there was no danger, Qingzhen suddenly accelerated its progress.

At a speed that wouldn't hurt even if he collided head-on with these ghosts, he started speeding through the lightless passage.

The spacing between each abyssal level and the area of ​​each abyssal level are different.However, it can be inferred from the results of simulation records that it can be reached within a few years without the need for a feather ship and simply by physical flight. This so-called bottom of the abyss should undoubtedly be the narrowest layer.

Running at full speed, Hunzhen arrived at the exit of the passage at twice the speed of the simulated person in the simulation record.

In previous experiences, every time I left the abyss passage, I would see the next level of sky.

However, this time, the end of the lightless passage is the down-to-earth earth, the ground at the bottom of the abyss.

He has arrived at the bottom of the abyss alone.

If the first seventeen levels of the abyss can be considered a complete world, the bottom of the abyss is completely different.

This is a dead, lifeless place.

To say "dead silence" is not that accurate, because the wind like a typhoon is howling all the time.

When you look up for a moment, you can see the layers of abyss layers, and you will naturally find that you are directly under the large hollow.

The bottom of the abyss inherits the characteristics of a lightless passage. Unlike other levels with natural light sources, it is a lonely world with neither life nor light.

Only one thing... is different.

In the center of the bottom layer of the abyss, there is a huge plant that is half a level tall.

It was a tree of flesh and blood with withered flowers and leaves, skinny as bones.

Around it, not only is there no light, but darkness is also lost...

Hunzhen has never seen such a space before. It cannot be described in words. If I had to say it, the only word that can be used to describe it is "eclipsed".

Losing color, but being able to accurately recognize the outline of the tree of flesh and blood, this kind of distorted senses and counter-intuitive information feedback makes Hunzhen extremely uncomfortable.

But there was a kind of understanding that was so mysterious that it cannot be described in words.

"Is this the eclipse core?"

The first time she saw the colorless space covered by the tree of flesh and blood, Hun Zhen couldn't help but have such an idea.

But this idea only existed for a moment.

When he moved his eyes downward and noticed that this huge tree was rooted in a discolored ore, his intuition and instinct told him that this ore was the so-called discolored core, or in other words - discolored stone.

Unlike the tree of flesh and blood, which is so huge that it needs to be used as a reference in the abyssal level, although the size of the eclipse stone is "big", this "big" is only relative to human senses.

The maximum diameter of this irregular ore is probably less than one kilometer.

The huge tree of flesh and blood is rooted on it, just like the giant of light is standing on the ants.

If it weren't for such a huge difference in volume ratio, Hunzhen wouldn't have missed it at first.

The colorless realm with a diameter of about half a light-year is not actually covered by a tree of flesh and blood.

On the contrary, only within the eclipse field where the eclipse core radiates can the tree of flesh and blood survive.

According to the explanation of the secret method, one must step into the realm of eclipse in order to use the abyss crystal core as a catalyst. According to the fact that the crystal core comes from the silver ghost favored by space and the black demon favored by time, different gifts and gifts can be obtained.

The Eclipse Domain occupies most of the space at the bottom of the abyss, and as Hunzhen gradually approaches that domain, a strong barrier is clearly felt.

But such resistance is still within a slightly uncomfortable range for Hunzhen.

Keep flying and finally reach the boundary of the field.

Looking in from outside the domain, one can see that what was originally thought to be something like stalactites standing naturally on the ground has a human shape.

Cluster after cluster, the distance is slightly different, but the expressions on their faces are all a mixture of despair and longing.

These people are all knight candidates who finally stopped here.

According to the instructions of the secret method, just by stepping into the eclipse realm, you can activate the secret method and try to obtain the bloodline gift.

However, there is also a probability of failure in using this secret technique.

The closer to the eclipse core, the higher the probability of success.

In the outermost reaches of more than [-] kilometers, it can basically be regarded as hopeless, just a matter of pure luck.

Only after traveling a million kilometers deep can one be considered to have a higher probability of becoming a demon.

These knight candidates clearly saw many lessons learned from the past, but they were unwilling to do so after all, and ended up with a "stalactite".

The Ten Thousand Years Celebration is a festival held by both royal families. On the side of the Black Demon Clan, at this moment, there may be one or even several knight candidates approaching the eclipse core.

However, the gradually increasing resistance and the stalactites in the eclipse realm doomed the two sides to never meet.

And simulation records also illustrate this point.

Innocence naturally continues to deepen.

The moment you step into the eclipse realm, it's like passing through an invisible film...

In an instant, everything was silent, all the howling winds stopped, and the ever-present highest-level wind-eating and deep-diving pressure disappeared.

Instead, there was ultimate silence.

If you don't move on, you can even say that you have entered a comfortable haven.

But as soon as I took a slight step forward, resistance that was countless times stronger than before appeared again.

Rather than saying it is resistance, it is more appropriate to call it pressure.Because it will not push forward and backward out of the realm, it will only bring a heavy pressure that seems to freeze it here and become assimilated into this world.

For an ordinary domain master, this is enough pressure to suffocate him to death, but for Hunzhen, it is still within the range of being able to remain calm and calm.At least this first step is as light as a feather.

Hunzhen understood the truth of pressure with her extraordinary perception of time and space.

This eclipse realm is a nearly condensed time and space. Anything that will bring changes to it will be assimilated and condensed by it, losing all its own characteristics and becoming part of the eclipse realm.

Its essence is the extraordinary power of the laws of time and space.

The scary thing is the unknown. When the unknown is deconstructed and loses its mysterious veil, it becomes just a pure problem.But the problem can be solved.

Hunzhen continued to walk, and not long after, he reached the million-kilometer range that would be fatal to ordinary people.

The level and success probability of the bloodline gift increase with the shortening of the distance from the eclipse core.

The previous one kilometer and one million kilometers can be used to draw pressure level areas for nodes.

He knew very well that going from this position to the next pressure level area was the result of the simulator obtaining the intermediate bloodline through several simulations.

He speculated that cosmic-level beings may be able to obtain higher-level bloodlines at a higher position, just like the difficulty of identifying the owner of the Star Tower in the original book increases as the level of life increases.

Knights have the gift of reaching the top bloodline. In theory, only the universe level has the best chance of obtaining it.

Innocence does not require reaching the top level of demon blood, and that is not his goal.

However, it can be seen from the simulation records that, as he speculated, the higher the bloodline level, the less repelled by the will of the abyss, and the easier it is to seize the body.

If possible, he still wanted to obtain the highest level bloodline gift he could achieve.

The million-kilometer mark has been broken, and he continues to go deeper. In one week, he has broken through the tens-of-million-kilometer zone.

At first, there was just resistance like swimming in water. As the distance shortened, the resistance became so great that it gradually became as difficult as trying to sink oneself into the ice.
