Chapter 71: The Story of Mo Yu
At the end of the space where Luo Dong and Wu Li were standing, there was a semicircular platform with a thin monster statue standing proudly. The head of the statue looked like a human head, but the skull was bald and sunken, the nose was long and pointed like a beak, and the neck was very thin and long, a bit like the appearance of a modern human, and his body was even more strange, just like a beetle, with more than ten thin hands and feet, but on the more than ten hands and feet were holding various jade items similar to fortune-telling, which looked extremely mysterious and strange.
This is the Corpse God.
It looks more like a beast god.
"Why does the Corpse God statue look so old and aged?" Luo Dong said, holding back his laughter.
"Humph, it's because Lanruo Temple placed a pure lotus in front of the Corpse God, and the purifying flame never extinguished, preventing the worship and cleaning of the ghoul leaders of all generations, that made our precious Corpse God look like this." Wu Li roared angrily.
"So, this is why you asked me to come?" Luo Dong thought and said.
"Yes, you can control the Green Sea Messengers. They are born with the immortal nature of the Green Sea. They can defend against the invasion of the purifying flames and help us ghouls offer soul fire tributes to the Corpse God. In this way, we can regain the immortal power of the Corpse God." Wu Li said.
"But why do you always call the Twelve Skeletons the Green Sea Messengers?" Luo Dong asked in confusion.
"Didn't Mo Yu tell you the origin of the Twelve Skeletons?" Wu Li said.
"This... Mr. Mo Yu didn't have time to tell me the deeds of the Twelve Skeletons until he died." Luo Dong hesitated.
"Well, since I asked you to pay tribute to the Corpse God for me, I will tell you the origin of the Twelve Skeletons on behalf of Mo Yu, as well as the transaction between Mo Yu and me before." Wu Li said in a deep voice.
"I'd like to hear the details." Luo Dong said immediately with concentration.
"Thinking back when the Undead Magic was dominating the continent, Mo Yu, as a high-level Undead King Magician, founded the Undead Church. Its power and followers numbered over a million, and it was almost as powerful as the Church of Light. At that time, Mo Yu accidentally got a book of elven water magic, and as an Undead Mage, he actually mastered the forbidden magic of water escape, and could swim in the deep sea like a shark. In addition, Mo Yu used the elven water magic disc to get a map leading to the deep sea sunken palace, and thus found the legendary sunken palace where the water god lived. There, Mo Yu broke through the password of the sunken palace, I got the twelve Green Sea Messengers, which are the twelve skeletons you lead now. Relying on these twelve Green Sea Messengers, when Mo Yu reappeared on the continent, his strength was comparable to that of a Saint, and he had almost no rivals. However, during the period when Mo Yu was exploring the secrets of the Sunken Water Palace, the Dark Dynasty was defeated by the Red River Army because of the loss of Mo Yu's power, and the Church of the Dead was almost hunted down by the power of the Holy See of Light. When Mo Yu came out alone, he could no longer reverse the situation in the central part of the continent. From then on, from Mo City to Zhongcheng, a great dynasty affiliated with the Holy See of Light, the 'Red River Empire', was established. "Wuli said leisurely.
"So how did you get to know Mo Yu?" Luo Dong said.
"Haha, at that time, Mo Yu seemed to have met an extremely tough opponent, the Left Emissary of the Church of Light, Heiger. Heiger is said to have lived for tens of thousands of years. He is a senior Saint-level magician who masters both light and dark magic, so he is exactly the nemesis of Mo Yu. Under Heiger's positioning and hunting, Mo Yu had no choice but to escape into the most dangerous Warcraft Forest. Here, he accidentally entered the Netherworld Corpse Realm under my supervision. Of course, he had to fight a decisive battle with us ghouls, but I discovered an amazing secret in the battle with him, that is, the Green Sea Messenger could actually... To avoid all the damage of the flames, so... I begged Mo Yu to help me send the Soul Fire Spirit accumulated for ten thousand years to the altar of the Corpse God Statue, so that the Corpse God Statue in the temple could be prevented from corruption and continue to exist until now. ... And in return, I gathered the power of the ghouls to help Mo Yu kill a dark clone of Hegri, so as to drive Hegri away and prevent Mo Yu from being hunted down. We ghouls even made an agreement with Mo Yu that he would bring the Green Sea Messenger to help us pass the Soul Fire Spirit to the Corpse God every thousand years... but he never came again. "Wuli said.
"That's really a distant history!" Luo Dong sighed.
"Hehe... Finally, God has eyes, and I, Wu Li, can still meet you and bring the Green Sea Messenger in my lifetime. This must be because the ghouls should not be killed." Wu Li said with a strange smile.
"Well, can I now order the twelve skeletons to step over the purifying flames and send your Soul Fire Spirit to the hands of the Corpse God?" Luo Dong said.
"I can't wait for this day." Wu Li said loudly.
He immediately took out a red object from his belly, which was as transparent as jade and shaped like a flower, and handed it to Luo Dong.
Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings.
As soon as Luo Dong took the soul fire spirit, he immediately felt an extremely evil breath permeating his mind, almost shaking his mind.
"Hurry up and send it to the hands of the corpse god." Wu Li said thirstily.
"Yes." Luo Dong nodded.
He carefully handed the soul fire spirit to the huge sword-wielding skeleton, controlled the skeleton to move forward with his mind, stepped into the vast sea of ??fire in front, and instantly felt an extreme burning heat invading his body. This purifying flame could actually pass through the skeleton and be transmitted to Luo Dong's body with his mind. It was really weird.
Luo Dong's mind became more stable. He dared not be distracted and drove the skeleton forward step by step. At the same time, he felt the heat in his body rising little by little. One step, two steps... Finally, the skeleton walked to the statue of the corpse god intact. Then when the skeleton placed the soul fire spirit within a foot of the corpse god, the corpse god's wooden eyes lit up, and then the soul fire spirit disappeared completely. Then, the originally corrupted and old corpse god suddenly shot out thousands of rays of light from his body, penetrating like a needle thread, and the corrupted and old body dissipated like dust, revealing a golden and shining body.
As the energy of the corpse god revived, Wu Li, who was beside Luo Dong, also trembled all over. From the originally dry and thin part of his body, muscles began to grow slowly, and every part of his body glowed with obvious enhancement.
Luo Dong instantly sensed a terrible consciousness power. Wu Li's ability at this time seemed to have reached the infinite level of the king level.
"Great, we ghouls finally have bright power again." Wu Li opened his hands and said excitedly.
"It's worth congratulating." Luo Dong glanced at Wu Li and began to feel that he couldn't offend this king-level strongman.
"I will abide by the agreement and give you the magic crystal core of the Nine-Headed Lion King to send you out of the Netherworld." Wu Li stretched out his hand to Luo Dong and said.
"Thank you." Luo Dong took Wu Li's hand and shook it warmly.
"Gulu, take us out of the temple." Wu Li waved to the caterpillar and said.
I saw the caterpillar named Gulu move in front of Wu Li, Wu Li jumped on the caterpillar's back, and then Luo Dong also rode on it, and saw Gulu leap into the land, and there was another dark shuttle.
When the sky was bright, Wu Li and Luo Dong returned to the previous Netherworld.
Luo Dong saw that the various strange-looking ghouls around him were now full of flesh and blood, their breath expanded, and their levels had been significantly improved, while his group of trial teams and the remaining guards were still safe and sound.
"Luo Dong." Elodi immediately rushed over and shouted.
"What's wrong, Elodi?" Luo Dong said with a smile.
"I was very scared just now, afraid that you would follow this ghoul monster into hell and never come back..." Elodi actually said with some sobs.
"Thank you for thinking of me." Luo Dong hugged Elodi and said with emotion, but he squinted his eyes and looked at Jasmine. Seeing her holding hands tightly with Sachs, he couldn't help but feel heartbroken and a sense of loss.
"Okay, human, you can leave the netherworld safely." Wu Li laughed loudly, took out the magic crystal core of the nine-headed lion king from the storage bag, and threw it to Luo Dong.
Luo Dong took the magic crystal core and handed it to Adolf. Seeing Adolf shaking his hand, he handed it to Captain Aoli.
Aoli's right hand was broken long ago, so he could only take the magic crystal core with his left hand. His face was still pale. Looking back at the few remaining guards around him, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Okay, let's leave here."
"Yes, sir." The guards said, and their expressions were extremely miserable.
Adolf and Som led the trial team and walked away with the pace of the guards.
The remaining ghouls such as Wu Li, who were full of self-satisfaction, shouted a few times in unison, and then their bodies were swiftly passed into the black airflow, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
The netherworld is a world created by the spirit of ghouls. Although it is in the Warcraft Forest, the domain space is actually very different from the real world. It is said that the maze of the Netherworld Corpse World is full of directions. This is actually because of the mental distortion in the space of the Netherworld Corpse World, so it is often a few thousand meters in range, and the distance difference will be caused by mental fluctuations.
Therefore, Luo Dong and others can no longer follow the original road back, and can only grope and walk in the world full of black airflow.
The route of the crowd can only be judged by the thinness of the black airflow and the thinness of the dead air to determine the way out.
At this time, the sky gradually darkened. The Lieyang Trial Team set out in the morning. When it was almost noon, they encountered the Guards Corps and the Nine-headed Demon Lion. Later, they fought with the ghouls, and the time was actually delayed until four o'clock.
This tour took another hour on the way out of the Netherworld Corpse World, so it was time for the evening to fall.
In the Netherworld Corpse World, as the black airflow decreased, white light began to appear in the sky, and the dim red sun color in the evening, like penetrating the misty water vapor, illuminating the hazy sky.
