Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 885 False is not false, true is not true

The Western Front.

Bai Qiucha and the others were somewhat surprised as they watched the cordyceps gradually turn from ethereal to tangible.

"Epsilon? Has Bai Qi arrived?"

A glimmer of hope flashed in Bai Qiucha's eyes.

If Bai Qi can come, then the guardian dragon won't need to take any more action.

"The leader didn't come; he'll come next."

Cordyceps shook his head, while Bai Qiucha and the Five-Colored Dragon immediately showed expressions of disappointment.

If it were any other enemy, even a mythical creature, Bai Qi could easily send Cordyceps alone.

But they are now facing the Black Mist Serpent, which is no match for ordinary mythical creatures, let alone a legendary creature like Cordyceps.

"Epsilon, you stay here and protect them. We're going to deal with the Black Mist Serpent."

Seeing Bai Yuxiao's breathing gradually stabilize, Aletta stood up, and the other five-colored dragons also rose up and rushed towards the black mist serpent together.

Everyone is well aware of the power of the Death Clone, so it must never be allowed to get close here, otherwise it will only cause greater damage.

Although it will waste some of the protective power, the opponent is only a clone, so it shouldn't take too much effort.

"The leader said that the power of the seniors was hard-won, so let's not waste it. I'll take care of this."

The sound of Cordyceps suddenly came from ahead. The five-colored dragon suddenly realized that Cordyceps had appeared in front of them at some point, while Cordyceps, which should have been behind them, gradually disappeared like a phantom.

"Was that an illusion?"

Seeing this, Aletta's expression turned serious.

With her top-tier mythical strength and the power of protection, she hadn't even seen through the cordyceps' illusion.

Such an ability is probably enough to deceive the vast majority of myths.

"When truth and falsehood are intertwined, what difference is there between them?"

Cordyceps smiled faintly, its eyes filled with clarity, as if it had seen through everything in the world.

"But……"

Aletta wanted to say something more, but found that the surrounding scenery had changed again, and they were back in their original position.

Cordyceps, however, remains in the distance.

Seeing this, the five-colored dragons looked at each other in bewilderment, while Bai Qiucha and the others were even more confused.

From the very beginning, they were under the illusion of the cordyceps without realizing it.

If this ability were used to ambush or disrupt the enemy, they'd probably be happy even after killing all their own men.

However, after being tormented by the cordyceps, Aletta and the others gave up on entanglement with it and simply sat down to help Bai Qiucha and Bai Yuxiao recover their strength.

Both of them have grown tremendously. If they can recover before the final battle, it might have an unexpected effect.

Seeing that the five-colored dragon was no longer bothering him, Cordyceps put down the grass. At this moment, the black mist serpent was not far away from him.

"Even though we've met before, isn't it a bit inappropriate to get this close?"

Looking at the ferocious black mist serpent, Cordyceps showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, it bowed respectfully to the black mist serpent.

Then, the distance between the two suddenly increased several times, and the black mist serpent actually returned to the place where it first appeared.

sizzle...

Sensing the cordyceps' strange abilities, the black mist serpent for the first time flicked its tongue like a real snake, and with each movement, it unleashed an extremely violent energy.

Affected by this violent energy, the dragons behind and even the extraordinary creatures of Eden became agitated.

"Bullying the weak is not a polite thing to do."

Seeing this, Cordyceps showed a hint of disappointment on its face. Then, a full moon appeared in the sky above the humans, continuously showering down moonlight to soothe their agitated emotions.

At the same time, a huge sun appeared above the head of the black mist serpent, and the scorching sunlight fell on the black mist serpent, directly baking out large pits.

As the star most clearly visible to humankind, the power of the Great Sun is in no way inferior to that of other stars, and its output is even much higher.

But how could the Black Mist Serpent, as a death clone, be destroyed by the power of the Great Sun?

Just as the power of the sun was about to harm him, the black mist serpent spewed out a mouthful of black mist, shooting into the sky.

The black mist moved very slowly, but wherever it passed, all energy was subjected to a tremendous impact and was directly destroyed.

Even the power of the sun released by the cordyceps was abruptly cut in half upon contact with the black mist.

"The power of destruction? Just as the leader said, these death clones have begun to master new powers."

Cordyceps was not surprised by this. Its eyes flashed with gold and silver light, and the sun and the full moon appeared on the head of the black mist serpent at the same time, casting down their light.

When the sun and moon shine together, the effect is not simply one plus one equals two. After the two completely different styles of power merge, they actually form a brand new energy that dispels the black mist spewed out by the black mist serpent.

Having mastered the essence of the sun and moon, Cordyceps has already mastered powerful purification abilities. It's just that there are no other dead beasts here; otherwise, as soon as Cordyceps appears, it could probably clear the area easily.

The power of the sun and moon descended from the sky, and the black mist serpent sensed the threat and began to dodge in all directions. However, the black mist serpent was indeed quite large, and no matter how it dodged, it could not escape the radiance of the sun and moon.

Finally, after half of its body was purified, the ferocity of the black mist serpent was unleashed. With a single bite, it tore off a large chunk from the black cloud above its head, and its newly purified body quickly recovered.

Then, an even thicker black mist was spewed out by the black mist serpent, heading straight for the sun and moon overhead.

The sun and moon here are not the two that hang in the sky all year round, but rather the sun and moon essence condensed by the cordyceps.

Once the sun and moon are destroyed, the cordyceps' attack will crumble on its own.

However, after witnessing the actions of the black mist serpent, Cordyceps remained calm and unmoved, even when he saw the sun and moon being destroyed by the destructive power contained in the black mist.

"They say snakes are blind, and that's certainly true. Where were you hitting just now?"

Only after the black mist serpent completely destroyed the sun and moon did Cordyceps speak, his face full of mockery.

Then, the world changed again. The sun and moon, which should have been destroyed, still hung high in the sky, while the black mist serpent bit its own tail tightly, constantly spewing out destructive power.

This black mist serpent was actually using its tail as a metaphor for the sun and moon in its attacks.

"They can even fool the black mist serpent; Epsilon's illusionary abilities are simply too strong."

The Eternal Night Blood Emperor was shocked. He also knew illusion magic; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to communicate amicably with other female creatures.

But he admitted that he couldn't create illusions as realistic as Epsilon.

"What is false is not false, what is true is not true. Epsilon is probably not using simple illusion magic anymore."

Nicholas, being a green dragon, seemed to realize something and quickly figured out the key to the transformation process of the cordyceps' abilities.

"What Epsilon is using now is probably a kind of ability similar to deception and illusion."

Seemingly having heard Nicholas's assessment, Cordyceps also revealed a smug smile.

【Name】：Illusory Mirage Dragon (Epsilon)

[Attributes]: Sun and Moon, Dragon, Plant

[Level]: Legendary Perfection

[Skills]: Sun and Moon (Origin), Truth and Falsehood (Origin), Lust (99.9%)

[Status]: Cannot Evolve

……

Everyone, including Bai Qi, thought that Cordyceps would comprehend the origin of reality or illusion, but no one expected that Cordyceps would ultimately comprehend a higher level of the origin of reality and illusion.

When truth is false, falsehood is truth; when falsehood is truth, truth is falsehood. For cordyceps, the interplay of truth and falsehood, reality and illusion, is merely a matter of a single thought.

sizzle!

However, Cordyceps's antics completely enraged the Black Mist Serpent. Its body, which had been like clouds and mist, suddenly solidified, and an aura of pure destruction emanated from it.

At the same time, most of the creatures present suddenly lost track of the black mist serpent, and could not even sense its presence.

This was not because the black mist serpent had concealed its presence, but because the destructive power it released had destroyed light and even mental energy.

If you're not strong enough, you might not even know how you were destroyed.

But cordyceps was an exception.

"The power to destroy everything is indeed very strong, but how can you be sure you've actually destroyed those things?"

A hint of pity appeared in Cordyceps' eyes, and the space and energy that had been destroyed by the destructive power were completely restored.

"What you destroy might be fake, or it might be real, but if you can't even distinguish between the real and the fake, what's the point of destroying everything?"

Perhaps annoyed by the caterpillar fungus's nagging, the black mist serpent's aura grew increasingly violent, but no matter how it erupted or how it destroyed, everything around it could always be restored in an instant.

"The so-called destruction is just a concept. If it cannot destroy anything, then the concept is false. Only when you can destroy something does the concept become real."

"But now, what can you destroy?"

Cordyceps spoke slowly, but it only made the Black Mist Serpent more and more irritable. Having been sealed by the Sun Wheel Beetle for so many years, it had developed its own intelligence, though not much.

After all, creatures that can wield the power of destruction generally don't like to use their brains.

It was precisely because of this that the Black Mist Serpent was extremely annoyed by Cordyceps' incessant chatter, yet it was powerless against Cordyceps and could only spew out destructive power indiscriminately.

During this time, the cordyceps was also hit by the destructive force, but it recovered quickly like everything else.

"You see, you can't destroy me, nor can you destroy the world. The so-called destruction is already a false proposition."

"If you want to destroy me, you must prove he is real, and the only way is..."

"It's about destroying yourself!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the black mist serpent actually exploded, its originally fat body reduced to a small black ball, which then slowly faded away.

Such a dangerous thing should naturally be thrown into the endless void.

Seeing that Cordyceps had dealt with the Black Mist Serpent so easily, both the Five-Colored Dragon and Bai Qiucha were somewhat bewildered, unsure of how to evaluate the situation.

In the end, it was the cowhide snake who spoke for everyone.

"Why do I feel that preserving Epsilon's combat power is more worthwhile than preserving its protective power?"
