From Hunter x Hunter to Supreme Will

Only the skeleton was different.

"I should have thought of that earlier..."

Seeing this, Long let out a breath of foul air.

Since weak humans need to cling to powerful creatures and live like parasites, they will naturally become "slaves" of all kinds of life forms.

In the human world, consciousness disappears after death. Only a few people with the ability of mind can awaken the thoughts after death, but it is only a single obsession, a group of consciousness.

But for the advanced creatures in the Dark Continent, such as the Demon King... it can allow the soul to be completely protected, abandon the physical body in the form of afterlife, and have an independent spiritual will.

The soul is also energy, but it is unconventional energy...which further proves that the devil's means of controlling energy are unfathomable.

Judging from this point of view alone, Long is far from being able to do it.

The spirit in his ghost fog is controlled by him, like a puppet.

There is no memory or thought of previous life.

It is even more impossible to get too far away and run away alone.

In addition, the special environment of the Dark Continent also makes things that seem impossible in the human world become reasonable.

This skeleton in black robe is the true embodiment of 'still alive after death'.

"The devil's apostle? Followers?"

Long asked in a cold voice.

The soul fire in the skeleton's eyes flickered, as if it was very curious about Long.

Its mouth trembled, and the words and syllables it uttered were completely incomprehensible to Long.

Obviously some ancient or other ethnic language.

However, the two can communicate through soul fluctuations.

"Are you...human?"

And what Bai Gu said next made Longdu a little surprised.

This guy doesn't seem to think he is a 'human'.

Then what is he?

Chapter 256 The Demon King’s Invitation

"How did you get out?"

Long asked back.

Judging from the information about the Dark Continent that humans have access to, at least outside the Dark Continent, apart from the sub-human species such as the Gatekeepers, there has never been a soul life form such as "Bones".

Although the gas life form E among the five disasters looks very much like a soul species, it is also possible that it is a parasitic microorganism that spreads and reproduces and has special powers.

This is different from the skeleton in front of you.

Because this is a human being whose flesh and blood have been stripped away but whose soul has been preserved.

There are human qualities.

This kind of thing should be 'inside the door'.

"Sub-human race? Offspring of the Demon King...bloodline?" However, the skeleton tilted its head, and the fluctuations of its soul conveyed a sense of doubt.

Then, the skeleton's soul suddenly began to chant, and two balls of soul fire boiled in its eye sockets.

In Misty's eyes, those soul notes floating in the air were suddenly attached with an extremely terrifying will.

Some notes jumped and reorganized to form a completely new five-line score.

Make the beautiful music sound more silky and pleasant.

Then, without any warning.

Flames began to burn in Long's body, and his limbs were instantly charred and turned black.

Silk clothes on the body cannot block this force at all.

If it were an ordinary user of Nen ability, he would not be able to see this kind of soul energy. He might only see a human being suddenly losing his blood and energy, his body becoming charred and shrunken, and suddenly dying.

Terrifying soul energy and pressure.

"Hmm... is this the original tune of the Dark Sonata? It's amazing... It's a soul-related method, but even I can be affected. It seems... the power sequence that the Demon King was promoted to is on the same upgrade line as me." Under the gaze of the skeleton, the fire man in front of him suddenly muttered to himself.

Then the flames wrapped around his body suddenly turned into a gloomy green color.

Its chanting stopped abruptly.

boom!

The fire that was burning Halo's soul exploded, revealing a bony face that looked similar to a skull, but more hideous and evil.

It was exactly the appearance of Thresh.

In an instant, Long got rid of the influence and constraints of the "music" and flashed in front of the skeleton.

Thresh stared at the two clusters of soul fire in the eye sockets of the skull with his terrifying green eyes, and smiled maliciously, "After all, you are not a demon king... You are still a little lacking on your own."

"But...I am grateful for your presence, which helped me a lot..."

As he spoke, the chain of the Gray Lamp wrapped around the skeleton's black robed backbone like a long snake and began to shrink.

And in Long's hand is the other end of the chain.

A hanging, sickle-shaped giant axe was already in his hand.

"If there's a chance... I'll find him in person and enjoy the Dark Sonata with him..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he swung the giant axe.

It hit the skeleton's skull.

Instead of destroying the bones, the axe blade pierced through the skeleton and touched the target's soul fire.

Then, scenes emerged in Long's mind.

He is reading the skeleton's soul memory!

And then understand this unknown world.

……

In the revolving scenes, he saw many humans, and he seemed to be deep in a magnificent castle.

It also looks like a carefully excavated underground space, with exquisite buildings and various human tools placed on it, which is magnificent...

Then the scene changed, and 'he' appeared in a hall again.

A blurry figure sat on the platform.

Among the other people in the room, there were women with their breasts exposed and wearing gauze, dancing to the music.

Some were drinking from their cups, drinking some scarlet liquid.

Not all are human.

But it seems that every face is either infatuated or crazy.

There is a feeling of 'demons dancing wildly'.

Long is like a "bystander" who does not belong to this time and space, observing everything.

He turned his head and looked at a high platform, where a naked child with white wings was playing a harp.

Looks holy.

What's weird is that there is a seemingly drunk beauty lying next to the child, "serving" him. The scene is very discordant.

Long turned his head and looked to the other side. A creature was also playing music. While playing the violin, he controlled some kind of energy to twist a human's body into a dough twist through the air, as if squeezing out the life essence of the person. Eventually, streams of blood flowed out and filled the wine glasses on the table.

In the hall, most of the species retained some human appearance and features, unlike the strange and bizarre life forms that Long had encountered before.

"These...are all highly intelligent life forms with extraordinary powers."

Suddenly, I understood.

There are humans... but they are all servants, objects to be sacrificed and played with.

Then, he finally looked at the blurry shadow sitting on a throne in the center of the hall.

He knew... this thing was the Devil.

But he couldn't see his appearance clearly.

The moment Long's eyes met the Demon King, all the images in the hall were frozen as if someone had pressed the pause button, and the music disappeared.

"Humanity…"

The shadow swayed, as if it had sensed the intrusion of Long, the uninvited guest, and sighed.

"The poor fellow who climbed back onto the shore from that island in the lake."

This sentence is too mocking.

Hazy didn't respond.

At this moment, the demon king's arm suddenly stretched out from the shadow, and opened his big hand with sharp black nails towards him, "You have been chosen... Come, become my servant."

Only because the Demon King wants to can Long see part of his limbs. If the other party doesn't want to, Long cannot look directly at the Demon King's body.

Even if... this is just a memory created by the soul.

"Is he that powerful... He can control everything related to the soul?"

Long stroked his chin and thought.

He turned a blind eye to the devil's invitation.

This already involves some rules of time and space dislocation.

"Or... as a higher life form, your understanding and control of the origin of energy has reached a transcendent level, not just a single soul... is it all energy?" Long muttered again, and then looked at the Demon King, "Very powerful... looking down on me from a higher level, even if it is only through the soul as a medium, you can instantly know everything about me. In terms of understanding the soul, it is even purer. I still need to rely on my ability to search and find fragments of the soul... you just took a look and knew everything."

"You are very special... You come from a parallel world that evolved from time and space. Your soul... has a different flavor."
