Do not engage in underworld operations in the human world!

"Ah, is it because he didn't finish what he said just now?"

Hearing Jiang Lu's mumbling, Lucifer reminded:

"I seemed to hear what he said just now, but only half of it."

"Did it?" Jiang Lu narrowed his eyes and tried to recall the past: "I was so absorbed in the subject just now that I didn't pay attention. Is it true?"

"Then there is none." Lucifer shrugged: "I'm not sure anyway."

As he was speaking, the pale yellow mist had completely enveloped Jiang Lu. It seemed as if it had life and intelligence, and it madly drilled into every pore of Jiang Lu's body.

It was clearly an intangible fog, but the moment it approached Jiang Lu's body, it turned into thousands of thin threads. The process of entering Jiang Lu's body was like thousands of arrows piercing the heart. Soon, Jiang Lu was pierced like a hedgehog.

But Lucifer, who was outside the fog, couldn't see the scene inside the fog clearly. After a while, he didn't hear any movement from Jiang Lu, so he couldn't help asking: "How is it? What's the situation now?"

"fine."

Jiang Lu did not feel any discomfort, but he also did not feel any special changes:

"But I feel a little strange. I don't feel sick now, but I don't feel like I'm getting stronger either."

Jiang Lu recalled the feeling when he was reintegrating those organs that belonged to him that were piled up in the corner. He always felt that the effect of what he was fusing now was even less obvious than that of the much higher-level ancient artifacts.

Or it cannot be said that the effect is not obvious, it is simply that there is no feeling at all.

Just as Jiang Lu was wondering if there was something wrong with the way he opened it, Lucifer outside the mist continued to yell, "Say something, make a sound whether you are dead or alive!"

"I'm talking." Jiang Lu responded casually.

But in an instant I felt something was wrong.

Can't Lucifer hear his own voice?

"Hey Hey hey?"

Lucifer is still trying to contact Jiang Lu.

But no matter what Jiang Lu said, Lucifer couldn't hear a word.

This feeling was not good. It made Jiang Lu feel like he had become a transparent person with no sense of existence.

He thought there must be something strange about the fog, so he subconsciously wanted to stick his head out of the fog to speak, to prevent the fog from blocking his voice again.

But the next second, he found that he couldn't move at all.

Those fine silk threads locked him in place. Not only his bones and muscles, but even every inch of his skin was fixed with several crisscrossing misty silk threads. He couldn't break free at all.

Even though only his body was locked up, he could still mobilize the enormous energy in his body, but he did not dare to act rashly. First, he was worried that this would destroy the origin of the ancient artifact. Second, he was afraid that some of the origin had already entered his body. If he acted recklessly, he could not guarantee that he would not suffer backlash.

So he could only watch Lucifer outside getting anxious.

Lucifer was worried that Jiang Lu was in danger and stopped responding to the outside world, but only Jiang Lu knew that he was actually just passively using cold violence against the other party.

He understood everything, he knew it all, he understood it all, but he just didn't move.

Even Zhang Shiyao, the most skilled magician in history, could not stand the damage of cold violence, not to mention Lucifer, who was cold on the outside but warm on the inside, and seemed arrogant but was actually arrogant. Seeing that Jiang Lu had not responded for a long time, Lucifer thought again and again and decided to try to enter the fog to check.

But as soon as his fingers touched the yellow mist that was like smoke, he felt a sharp pain in an instant. When he withdrew his hand reflexively, he found with horror that his fingertips had turned black and shriveled, and were surrounded by a thick yin energy. Just looking at it was enough to make Lucifer's eyes hurt.

"It was just a touch..." Lucifer was horrified and quickly took his finger away to avoid looking directly at the evil spirit and causing pain in his eyes. "It's just like when you hold a lit cigarette in your mouth and lower your head, the smoke goes right into your eyes!"

"That's very lifelike." Jiang Lu, who was in the fog, felt the same way.

However, Jiang Lu was a little puzzled. Lucifer was burned like that just by touching him, but how come he was not hurt at all when he was completely covered?

Even if it is because I already have one third of the origin in my body, how can I explain it when I was not yet born?

Let’s not discuss the principle behind the choice that the tramp mentioned, but based on what we see now, this origin seems to be like the super divine water in Dragon Ball. If you can survive it, you will become stronger, but if you can’t, you will become like Lucifer.

But the homeless man had to go through a long period of assimilation before he could accept these origins. When he was still in the womb, he directly absorbed one third of them but nothing happened to him. Is this right?

While Jiang Lu was thinking, the cave suddenly began to vibrate.

At first, Jiang Lu thought it was almost over. Just like what was described in all fantasy novels, when a treasure or a powerful person came into the world, it was normal for the earth to shake.

But he soon discovered that this was not the case.

Lucifer, who was busy trying to stabilize his body and observing the surrounding situation, also noticed this.

"What's going on outside?"

Just as Lucifer finished speaking
boom! !

The Jiang family compound above the stone cave was completely opened, and a gap leading directly to the stone cave appeared in front of Jiang Lu and Lucifer.

The entire Huangquan Mountain seemed to be split in half, and the stone cave suddenly turned into an open-air square.

It was just dawn and a little light was coming through in the east.

The sun in the underworld was not warm at all, and a cool breeze blew past, causing Lucifer, who was confused, to shiver.

The intuition developed from years of fighting gave Lucifer goosebumps all over his body. He was very sure that a very powerful opponent was standing in front of him.

The muscles in his legs twitched involuntarily, and his fingertips trembled slightly. This most primitive reaction from his body scared even him.

Are you afraid?
This discovery was somewhat unbelievable to him.

Because he knew that if it was just a strong enemy, even an opponent as strong as God, it would not be worth making him panic, let alone fear.

But at the same time, he also understood why he had such a reaction.

Because he was certain that there was something in front of him based on his intuition, but no matter how he sensed it, the answer he got was the same -

There is nothing in front of me.

But Jiang Lu, who was in the fog, could see it clearly.

At this moment, in the direction where Lucifer instinctively looked, the monster that had been running back and forth tirelessly in the spiritual realm according to Jiang Lu's life trajectory and had inherited the remaining one-third of the origin, for some reason, seemed to have just woken up from a dream, no longer the idiot in the words of the homeless man, and lay on the gap, greedily staring at the yellow mist that enveloped Jiang Lu.
