A succubus devours its master? She then raises a twelve-winged angel!

Chapter 355 A Critical Situation!
Gu Xing's consciousness struggled to coalesce in this fragmented, gloomy world.

Beneath my feet lies withered and shattered earth, the sky is riddled with cracks, and the air is thick with chaotic energy.

Each breath seemed to bring a heavy sense of oppression.

As soon as his consciousness stabilized, Gu Xing's gaze locked onto the ancient tree of life in the distance.

At its base, a figure was curled up, emitting an extremely faint green halo.

"Vera!"

He transformed his thoughts into a mental wave, attempting to awaken that figure.

however.

It's like a stone sinking into the sea!

The curled-up figure remained motionless, as if its consciousness had completely vanished.

Upon seeing this, Gu Xing's heart sank.

The erosion of the Insect King's will is more terrifying than imagined; it is not only corrupting Vera's power.

It further completely blocked and isolated her from her own consciousness.

It was at this time that...
As if sensing the intrusion of outsiders, the world around them began to collapse at an accelerated pace.

Boom——!
A deafening roar, as if the weight had been lifted, echoed from the horizon. The cracks widened further, and fragments crumbled away, vanishing into nothingness.

The earth trembled violently beneath our feet, cracking and crumbling.

At the center of the world, the ancient tree that symbolizes the source of life is withering and decaying at a speed visible to the naked eye, its bark peeling off and its branches and leaves turning to ashes.

The faint light emanating from Vera's body gradually dimmed.

This means that the erosion of the Insect Emperor's will is nearing its end.

Once Vera's original consciousness is completely corrupted and devoured, that familiar Vera will be gone.
It will disappear forever!
We can never go back!

"We need to speed things up!"

Since calling Vera from afar had no effect.

So he went closer to test it!

Without further hesitation, Gu Xing strode towards the ancient tree.

However, as soon as he took action, something unexpected happened!
"hiss--!"

The surrounding dark red energy, like a startled venomous snake, instantly boiled over.

Several energy tentacles, accompanied by sharp hissing sounds, cleaved and lashed out at Gu Xing's consciousness!

At the same time, a portion of the dark purple insect king's tentacles clinging to the ancient tree also separated.
Like an arrow released from a bow, it carried a nauseatingly sticky feeling and a chilling mental pollution, piercing straight at Gu Xing!
These attacks not only contain powerful energy shocks.
Even more deadly is the intense psychological damage it causes!
It is frantically trying to penetrate Gu Xing's consciousness, to corrupt and dismantle his existence.

Gu Xing felt a chill and immediately mobilized all his mental energy to build a defense.

However, in this mental world belonging to Vera, the power that his consciousness could exert was greatly limited.

The hastily formed mental shield flickered violently under these attacks, teetering on the brink of collapse.

A cold, chaotic thought, like an icicle, continuously assaulted his consciousness, bringing waves of dizziness and nausea.

Gu Xing's heart sank further!

Trouble!
If this continues...
Forget about waking Vera, I myself might be trapped here!
Now, because Gu Xing is a spiritual being, many methods are completely unusable.

Moreover, beast tamers are not a profession that excels at fighting alone.

But at this critical moment, a flash of inspiration appeared.

He thought of a way.

That is the Imperial Might Domain!
This field has a special role.

That is, it can intimidate all living beings.

Previously, when Fei Yue was able to obtain the divine runes of the Ghost Clan, the domain of Emperor's Might played an extremely important role.

And now.
Is it still effective against the will and might of the Insect Emperor?
Gu Xingxin hardened her heart; now she had no choice but to try anything, even if it seemed hopeless. "Imperial Might!"

Gu Xing calmed his mind and focused his thoughts on the area.

In an instant, an indescribable, invisible wave quietly spread out from him.

The fluctuations were not violent, but they carried an awe-inspiring and inviolable majesty.

Like the morning sun dispelling the thin mist, or the blazing sun shining on ice and snow, it contains the most yang and righteous energy.

The miracle happened!
When this wave containing the essence of "Imperial Majesty" touched those dark red energy tentacles and insect king tentacles, it was as if they had encountered their natural nemesis.

The attack motion instantly became sluggish and distorted, and the surface even emitted a slight "hissing" sound and a faint black smoke, as if it had been purified!
The icy intent that had been trying to erode Gu Xing's consciousness recoiled abruptly, as if it had been scalded!

efficient!

Diwei is indeed remarkably effective against this kind of mental pollution and external will!
Gu Xing was greatly encouraged.

Maintaining this state of "Imperial Majesty," it took steps to advance towards the Ancient Tree of Life.

Wherever he went, the dark red energy and the insect king's tentacles still stirred and hissed threateningly.

However, they no longer dared to pounce on him as recklessly as before, but instead formed a dangerous vacuum around him.

Finally, Gu Xing overcame numerous obstacles and arrived at the foot of the enormous ancient tree of life, standing before the huddled figure.

At such close range, he could better sense how bad Vera's condition was.

Her primordial consciousness was extremely dim.

Its form was already blurred, tightly bound by countless dark red chains.

Those chains even burrowed into her spirit like roots, constantly drawing away her nourishment and injecting corrupting thoughts.

"Vera, I'm here."

Gu Xing called out softly, and at the same time, he gently enveloped Vera with his spiritual power, which contained the essence of imperial might, like a warm halo.

Under the Emperor's might, the dark red chains binding Vera seemed to be somewhat suppressed and loosened slightly.

Vera, curled up, trembled almost imperceptibly.

There is a reaction!
A glimmer of hope rose in Gu Xing's heart, and he continued to call out:
"Vera, can you hear me? Look at me, it's me, Gu Xing."

However, that's all.

Vera did not wake up as expected; her trembling was just a little more noticeable.

It was as if I heard a call from the depths of an endless nightmare, but I was powerless to break free from the shackles of the nightmare.

the other side.

The situation in the outside world is extremely dangerous!

Above the arena, Liuli's situation was extremely dire.

She exhausted all her strength to create an opportunity for Gu Xing to get close.

Vera paused briefly due to Gu Xing's sudden approach and embrace.

But this stagnation did not bring about any improvement.
Instead, it was like pouring cold water into a boiling oil pan, causing an even more violent explosion!
"Ugh—!"

Vera suddenly let out a piercing roar, completely unlike her usual voice.

The dark red energy around him went completely out of control and went berserk like a tsunami!
The dark red vines, denser and thicker than before, with sharp barbs, lashed out at Liuli like a witch's braids!
At the same time, more void rifts appeared and disappeared without any pattern, devouring everything around them!
"puff!"

Liuli was already at her limit, and now, facing this intensified and frenzied attack, she could no longer completely resist it.

A void rift ripped across her shoulder, leaving a trail of blood, while several vines lashed out at her protective shield.

The immense force made her throat taste sweet, and she couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

His body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, and the sword of destruction in his hand flickered uncertainly.
