Chapter 3985 The Song of the Purple Moon (36) — [Void Flame]
The Dragon Sparrow Great Ring unleashed 3,600 sword beams in an instant, yet they were all twisted into one... In other words, the gate withstood a full 3,600 slashes in that instant!
The gusts of wind generated by the attack were so fierce!
Baniko had no choice but to cover himself with his hands, but he was still like a passerby about to be overturned in a hurricane... He used all his strength and finally had to pull out his sword and stick it into the ground to barely stay upright.
On the other hand, the gale-force winds on Shaq's side had stopped at some point.
Banikoli fell silent for a moment... Perhaps he should have gone over there?
What is "sleep talk"?
The past is gone, and Banikoli absolutely cannot let the boomerang hit him—but questions can be asked!
Clearly, it had been listening to the conversation of these outsiders.
[Golden] Shaq stared intently at the gate Zhang Bolu was attacking. "That's a script used by the Nightmare Clan, extremely rare even in the Old Gods Era! Supernatural beings from the [Fantasy Side] of the Old Gods Era, legend says they can only live in the dreams of others. In the dreams woven by the Nightmare Clan, you'll never know you're sinking into their trap..."
Upon hearing this, Banikoli frowned.
At that moment, Zhang Bolu suddenly stopped, even putting the [Dragon Sparrow Ring] back into its broken wooden scabbard, hanging it loosely at his waist.
[Gold] Shaq was taken aback. Could it be that even the [Pirate King] couldn't break through this door?
What level of defense is this?! This door itself must be an invaluable treasure, right? If we could just dig this door out... Shaq has already thought of dozens of ways to use it!
Click——!
Just as [Gold] Shaq was distracted, a sound like ice cracking suddenly appeared, and a tiny crack instantly appeared on the perfectly formed door!
Click, snap...click-click-click—!
The door shattered like a violent chemical reaction; in the blink of an eye, it was covered in tiny cracks before finally collapsing with a deafening crash!
"No, no wonder he's called the King of Pirates!" [Gold] Shaq swallowed hard.
"You're not bad either; you can tell that this is just rambling. You really can't judge a book by its cover."
Zhang Bolu glanced at [Golden] Shaq with some surprise... No matter how you looked at it, this guy, who looked exactly like the pirate in the universal worldview, didn't seem like a scholar at all.
[Gold] Shaq pondered, "I only know a little... Your Majesty, judging from your tone, do you also know about the [Dreaming]?"
“Not many, I’ve only heard of some.” Zhang Bolu casually picked up a fragment of the door. “For example, I can’t recognize these characters. But I do know that the Nightmare Clan should be extinct, otherwise the power of these Dreamy Words would be even stronger.”
[Gold] Shaq asked in surprise, "Are they really extinct? I've done some research before. Logically speaking, given the characteristics of the Nightmare race, as long as dreams exist, they should be immortal?"
“Who knows?” Zhang Bolu’s voice was faint. “Under the darkest fate of the Old Gods, all living beings are like ants. Even immortal lives will perish in the long river of time and destiny… Where is true eternity?”
[Gold] Shaq suddenly felt a sense of terror.
It wasn't the terrifying environment here, nor the terror of the unknown dangers ahead, but the unease about the ultimate destruction of that glorious old divine era.
He sighed, "What a pity that such a wondrous race was wiped out like this."
Zhang Bolu chuckled lightly, "In the New God Era, there are actually those who have inherited the bloodline of the Nightmare Clan, such as those similar to the Nightmare Demons. However, these bloodlines are too rare and too common... I once heard by chance that there is another kind of creature that has inherited a very high-level Nightmare bloodline and thus evolved into a completely new species. It is extremely rare. Even if you search all four sides of the Void, you may not be able to find a second one."
"Only one?" Banikoli couldn't help but be drawn to this secret, and subconsciously said, "How...lonely must that be?"
“Who knows?” Zhang Bolu shrugged. “Anyway, I’ve never actually seen such a creature… This creature is called a Dream Eater. It’s described in the Strange Creatures Compendium of the Secret Society. You can look it up later. If you ever have the chance to encounter one, be careful. Legend has it that this creature has the ability to turn everything in a dream into reality.”
Captain Luo suddenly blinked... Was it a Dream Eater?
He had met one before.
“I see.” [Gold] Shaq nodded, looking like he was humbly accepting instruction.
"Something has changed!" Banikoli suddenly exclaimed, offering a reminder.
Originally, after Zhang Bolu smashed the door, it was as if he had simply opened up a door that was blocking the passage. Behind the door, there was still a dark passage, and nothing else had changed.
But at that moment, a bright light appeared deep inside the passage behind the door!
It was a bleak, grayish-white, flickering, fire-like presence.
"You follow me." Zhang Bolu turned around and walked directly into the depths of the passage... one step was like teleportation.
Seeing this, Banikoli quickly followed.
[Gold] Shaq wasn't going to be left behind, "Brother, let's hurry up too!"
Captain Luo suddenly said, "Bai Zhi, please collect these fragments of the gate on the ground."
"Okay, master!"
Bai Zhi nodded quickly—and then took a vacuum cleaner out of her small handbag.
The suction power was quite strong. As soon as it was turned on, the broken pieces of the door on the ground rushed towards the vacuum port... [Gold] Shaq was stunned. This way of cleaning up was quite... down-to-earth?
"Brother, what do you need these fragments for?" [Gold] Shaq asked, puzzled. "Do you want to study the [Dream Talk]?"
Captain Luo smiled slightly and said, "It's just a personal hobby. I like to collect small items I encounter on my travels so I can easily reminisce about them later."
[Gold] Shaq nodded, smiled casually, and then suddenly picked up a palm-sized fragment and put it away. "This is a good hobby. I'll try it too, and pick one up to keep!"
—Whatever you want these pieces for, I've taken one now. Even if you glue the door back together, it won't be whole again…
Captain Luo didn't say anything.
Bai Zhi was absorbing the fragments and left behind... He took the maid and chased after Zhang Bolu.
……
The passage behind the gate of the Dreamy Words was much shorter than I had imagined—in fact, this passage had an end, and it was no longer the kind of passage where you would encounter dozens or even hundreds of forks in the road after walking through a section!
At this moment, Zhang Bolu was standing in front of a grayish-white flame that was suspended about three meters above the ground, quietly observing it.
"A ball of...flame?" [Gold] Shaq and his group arrived shortly after. "Could it be that the door outside exists to lock this flame?"
It was a strange, rootless flame. Not only could [Gold] Shaq not feel the temperature of this grayish-white flame, but in his perception, this grayish-white flame did not actually exist!
But it did indeed appear in our field of vision... as if it were a wisp of fire.
Zhang Bolu frowned, then grabbed a pebble and flicked it with his finger.
The pebble passed through the gray flames in an instant, and the flames did not change at all throughout the entire process, as if it were just a phantom that had passed through.
“How could this be?” Banikoli exclaimed in surprise.
“This fire must not actually be in the same space as us,” [Gold] Shaq pondered. “It should just be a projection of its true form.”
Banikoli said calmly, "I know about projections. If it's just a projection that doesn't move or have a physical form, and just floats around in this place, then what's the point of building an outer gate to seal it away?"
“This…” Shaq was slightly taken aback.
Although I was a little annoyed, what Banikoli said did make some sense.
"Brother Xian, what do you think?" [Brother Xian] Shak immediately came online and asked in a low voice next to Captain [Luo].
This young master from the powerful family might be able to see something... After all, no matter how incompetent a young master is, as long as he grew up in a family far beyond that of ordinary people, his knowledge and experience are incomparable to those of ordinary people.
The gap created by these resources is enough for grassroots immortals to spend an entire... or even more periods of ignorance and delusion to catch up.
"It's not clear yet." After looking around for a few moments, Captain Luo suddenly smiled slightly and said, "However, I think Captain Zhang might already know something."
"Wang?" [Gold] Shaq subconsciously looked at Zhang Bolu.
He was deep in thought, but not in a state of doubt; he seemed to be pondering something deeper.
Just then, Zhang Bolu drew his [Dragon Sparrow Ring] again and began to swing it directly at the grayish-white flame in mid-air.
Strangely, the [Dragon Sparrow Ring] did not strike directly into the flames, but instead swiftly slashed out four straight lines around the flames!
The four straight lines combine to form a somewhat irregular square.
Then, an even stranger scene unfolded!
The area enclosed by the square looked as if it had been cut out—along with the grayish-white flame, a gray "cube" fell directly from mid-air!
[Gold] Shaq and Banikoli couldn't help but gasp.
Because of Zhang Bolu's actions, he directly cut out the space where the flames were located... This is not on the same level as simply tearing space to make short-distance instantaneous movement, or even more advanced long-distance jumps!
"This... is the power of the Pirate King..." A look of longing appeared in [Gold] Shaq's eyes as he murmured to himself, "No, this is probably just the tip of the iceberg of his power..."
At this moment, Zhang Bolu reached out and lifted the space cube that had been cut out. "It's not a projection, this is its original appearance... I didn't expect to have such an unexpected gain."
"Your Majesty, what exactly is this... treasure?" [Gold] Shaq's eyes lit up.
"This thing is difficult for me to describe to you, but its value is indeed extremely high..." Zhang Bolu thought for a moment and said, "How about this, since you and I discovered it together, as the saying goes, those who find it should share it. However, I cannot divide it up. Captain [Luo], after we return, each of you can choose a treasure from the Alliance's treasury that is worth no less than one hundred million Origin Units. Consider it compensation for the share of this flame. What do you think?"
Although Zhang Bolu completely ignored his meaning and was asking Captain Luo, his "brother," Golden Shaq didn't mind at all!
After all, Captain Luo is not only a legendary pirate acknowledged by Zhang Bolu, but he is also the young master of a powerful family!
He still wants to keep getting gold coins from his "brother," so what's there to be jealous of... Besides, Zhang Bolu said everyone—which means he gets a share too!
--hiss!
If everyone receives a treasure worth no more than one hundred million, then the value of this flame must be...
“Is this alright, Captain Zhang?” Captain Luo asked in surprise, “In fact, we haven’t done anything; we’ve just been bystanders at most.”
"My dear brother, I know you're the young master of a powerful family, you're rich, you're aloof, you're amazing... but I'm just an ordinary person! I love money!! Preferably the kind that can crush me!! Don't cause trouble!!"
[Gold] Shaq is once again unleashing his gaze like crazy.
"Hahahaha!!" Zhang Bolu burst into laughter. "What I said can't be taken back! I said that those who see it will have a share, so you all have a share! Since you happen to be here, it's the best arrangement of fate! If you don't want to form a good relationship, do you want to compete with me for this flame?"
The Pirate King's gaze instantly became exceptionally sharp.
[Gold] Shaq shuddered. "My lord, I think Captain [Lo] is just a little overwhelmed by the generosity of your gift. He certainly didn't mean it! My brother, hurry up and thank him!"
However, speaking of which, "Brother Xian" has called "King of Pirates" Captain Zhang more than once... Just what kind of family does this "Brother Xian" come from?
"Well... in that case, thank you for your generosity, Captain Zhang." Captain Luo smiled slightly.
Zhang Bolu narrowed his eyes. "You're very calm. I suppose you don't care about these hundreds of millions of gifts. It's not that I'm generous, but compared to your deal with Li Huamei, this is nothing... Captain Luo, I hope you won't make things too difficult for Xiang Feihu in the future. She's a bit stubborn."
Captain Luo smiled slightly and said, "I also like Admiral Li's character very much, so why would I make things difficult for him?"
Zhang Bolu nodded. "In that case, you should leave quickly. I've taken this flame... The Lord of R'lyeh is about to truly awaken."
"what?!"
[Gold] Shaq hadn't recovered from the excitement of getting a hundred million for free when he was startled by Zhang Bolu's words and immediately screamed!
A voice, like the howl of the wind, like the roar of a beast... filled with anger, suddenly rang out.
At the same time, the entire space beneath the fissure began to vibrate.
“Haha ...!!!”
Zhang Bolu drew his sword and laughed wildly!
"As expected of the [Old God Ruler] God Lord, who also had a illustrious reputation in the Old God Era!! This aura is just right!"
"I am Zhang Bolu!"
At this moment, the Pirate King's [Dragon Sparrow Ring] flashed with a dazzling light.
"Am I qualified to fight you?"
The sound, like a steel needle, pierced through the entire space beneath the crack in the ground, echoing throughout all the passages!
……
……
"That voice... is it the King?"
[Xiang Feihu] suddenly stopped and opened his mouth in disbelief.
"Wang? You mean Zhang Bolu?" Ah Xiruo frowned... She also felt an overwhelming fighting spirit.
It's important to understand that the environment of this space beneath the fissure is extremely effective at isolating one's aura. Although the distance is unknown, the fact that one can clearly sense it suggests...
“I can’t mistake my boat captain’s voice.” Li Huamei nodded solemnly. “But…why is my captain here?”
"Damn it... Lord of R'lyeh, they've really woken it up completely!" Coribsol's expression suddenly became uncertain.
Ah Xiruo hesitated for a moment, then looked around at her surroundings—they were currently on a stone bridge of unknown length, and below the bridge lay an abyss whose bottom could not be fathomed…
……
……
“Zhang Bolu…”
Inside a cave filled with strange, fluorescent flowers.
"Lord Boros, this man calls himself Zhang Bolu. Could it be that the Pirate King has come in person?" Caesar, the Demon Sword, looked shocked.
Boros took a deep breath. "Ignore them, let's get to our business... We don't have much time!"
—That Zhang Bolu guy, didn't he see the mark I left...? Why isn't he chasing after me?!
Pirates—not a single one of them can be trusted!
