Chapter 2228 The Infamous God of Death (Bonus Chapter 2000 Words)
“I told you before that once the true form of the Heavenly Being descends to the mortal realm, you must kill me before He does.” General Red tilted his head. “It seems you have no intention of doing so at all.”
“I believe in the Dragon God,” He Lingchuan said solemnly, “and I believe in you too.”
Wear it a thousand times, but flattery never wears it.
General Red gave a low snort.
"Congratulations on defeating Mi Tian and regaining your freedom!" Xu Shichu rushed over, his voice choked with joy, "May Panlong enjoy lasting good fortune!"
Zhong Shengguang and he had been plotting for over twenty years, during which time they had endured countless bloodshed, hardships, and setbacks, and the king himself had faced numerous pangs of conscience!
Today, we have finally succeeded!
General Hong used his hands to support himself and slowly stood up.
Although she didn't show it, He Lingchuan knew she was unwell and immediately gave the order:
"Pass down the order: set up camp by Immortal Spirit Lake and give the entire army a day of rest!"
The Red General's tent was set up first.
She told He Lingchuan and Xu Shichu, "I need to go into seclusion for a few hours. You are in charge of military affairs," and then went into her tent.
He Lingchuan could tell that she was having some difficulty walking.
The main battlefield of the great battle between the Dragon God and Mitian was her sea of consciousness.
Anyone else would have been unable to handle it; their brain would probably have exploded long ago.
Although the great battle was over, the shock to her mind must have been immense. The fact that she hadn't collapsed was probably a result of her straining, so she naturally needed to recuperate as soon as possible.
Furthermore, General Hong has recently obtained the all-encompassing Death Godhead, which is also a hot potato.
As one of the three ancient deities renowned throughout the demon realm, it is not an easy task for General Red to gain its recognition.
However, her sea of consciousness still retains fragments of Mi Tian's divine soul, which may be the main reason why she is able to hold onto the divine spark for the time being.
She went to settle in, and He Lingchuan took over military affairs, arranging the remaining battles and support matters.
The Dragon God and General Red defeated Mi Tian, eliminating a major threat to Panlong City. This was incredibly good news, and Xu Shichu immediately sent a message to Zhong Shengguang.
Next, the Panlong Army can devote all its efforts to the battle in Xiluo!
……
The next evening.
To everyone else, the dome was ablaze with crimson clouds, a scene of breathtaking beauty.
But whenever He Lingchuan looked up at the sky, the clear blue sky was no longer visible; instead, it was a reflection of a dark red ocean, which was quite eerie.
His heart was filled with worry, but he couldn't tell anyone.
General Hong sent someone to invite He Lingchuan and Xu Shichu.
Her movements seemed a little more agile, but her voice still lacked strength.
General Hong's soul and consciousness were damaged in the battle with Mi Tian, but the fact that he can still have a conscious conversation with the two of them without falling into a coma has already impressed He Lingchuan.
He knew all too well how difficult it was to heal a wounded soul. If it were him, he would have slept for at least seven days and seven nights without waking up even once.
As expected of the Dragon God's selection, General Hong's soul power is indeed exceptionally strong.
She needed rest yesterday, so the two of them didn't have time to ask her much. The first thing Xu Shichu asked upon seeing her was, "How are you feeling?"
"Calm down a bit." General Hong invited them over to discuss the next battle plan.
Despite her exhaustion, she still had to fulfill her duties.
Panlong Army's great victory at Xianling Lake opened up new operational space, and the three quickly finalized a new plan.
After discussing official business, He Lingchuan asked, "Has the Death Godhood of Mitian fallen into your hands?"
He hadn't forgotten that one of the reasons the Dragon God had insisted on plotting against Mitian was that He possessed the Death Godhood that the Great Pot particularly craved.
Now that Mitian has passed away, has the Godhood of Death remained in General Hong's sea of consciousness?
"You mean this?" General Red opened his palm, and a wisp of black light emerged from it.
Only then did the two of them see clearly that a strange cube was floating in her palm. It was pure black, but the surface of the cube had many small squares, each of which was constantly being rearranged, reorganized, and shifted.
In He Lingchuan's view, this thing was like an automatically running Rubik's Cube.
But as soon as it appeared, an atmosphere of emptiness, deathly silence, and gloom enveloped the entire venue.
Xu Shichu felt a sense of loss and sadness for no reason, but as he looked at the Rubik's Cube for a long time, even the feelings of loss and sadness gradually dissipated, leaving only emptiness in his heart.
"Is this the infamous Godhood of Death?"
General Hong nodded: "The small squares on the cube represent the increase and decrease of order and disorder. Mi Tian believes that disorder will eventually replace order, which is the end of life and the embrace of death."
He Lingchuan stared intently, but his brows furrowed. "Something feels off to me."
He was someone who had obtained the divine title of Destiny. He wouldn't mistake the unique aura of a divine title.
Although the divine spark appeared before him, he could not sense its aura.
General Hong countered, "What's wrong with that?"
He Lingchuan remained silent, but secretly channeled his inner energy.
Once a red glow emanated from his body, then look at General Red's hand—
Ah, it's not a Rubik's Cube at all, it's clearly a perfectly round gem!
"Orb?"
Seeing that the illusion had been exposed, General Red shook his palm, and the "Rubik's Cube" disappeared, revealing the true form of the precious pearl.
This bead is different from the Dayan Dzi bead. It not only has a lustrous pearl color, but also a light blue halo, making it dreamlike in its beauty.
It looks very expensive.
“This is the demon core of the Thousand Illusions Immortal!” General Hong’s voice carried a hint of amusement. “I used it to simulate the divine essence of the Heavenly Realm, well, at least the original appearance of the divine essence.”
She rarely acted mischievously in front of the two of them.
He Lingchuan was greatly surprised and blurted out, "Mirage Pearl!"
General Hong tilted his head: "How do you know that the true form of Master Qianhuan is a mirage demon?"
He Lingchuan knew he had lost his composure as soon as he opened his mouth, and quickly tried to make amends: "Mr. Xin said so."
Xin Yi is a good brick; he can be moved wherever he is needed.
"Mr. Xin's mouth is really not tight." General Hong was also skeptical, but too lazy to ask any more questions.
He Lingchuan remembered that Qianhuan Zhenren was seriously injured in the ancient war, and the demon who personally dug away his mirage pearl was Mitian!
Now that Mi Tian has perished in General Hong's sea of consciousness, the legacy he brought with him will naturally be received by General Hong as well.
However, in real history, although Qianhuan Zhenren betrayed Panlong City and obtained the Dayan Heavenly Pearl from the city wall, he never got his own Mirage Pearl back.
It is evident that this treasure was ultimately presented to Dafanghu by General Hong.
Xu Shichu also stared at the mirage pearl, clicking his tongue in admiration.
This mirage pearl originated from a true immortal, making it an invaluable treasure.
However, he quickly remembered the important point: "Wait a minute, where did that colossal divine essence go?"
"Broken."
The two words, spoken so casually by General Hong, sent a jolt through the ears of the two men before them:
"W-what?"
Broken? Broken? The Godhood of Death isn't a vase that shatters with a single hit.
"Otherwise, after Mi Tian self-destructs his divine soul, what will he use to absorb all the power of the Dragon God, and what will he use to shake my sea of consciousness?"
There will be an extra chapter later, 3000 words.
