Chapter 175 The Power of Origin
【drink……】
The giant squid's consciousness returned.
"Go ahead, go ahead."
Since eating one is the same as eating the whole thing, and cleaning them all up is also the same, Lin Fan simply stopped caring and let them eat as much as they wanted.
With his permission, the tentacles immediately changed direction, transforming into giant water pumps and plunging into the pool of black blood.
In an instant, the liquid in the pool dropped at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Young Master."
The owl swallowed hard, its voice weak.
"Where did you get this summoned creature? Did it get so carried away with its food that it swallowed us all too?"
"Don't worry." Lin Fan patted Night Owl on the shoulder. "They won't hurt their own people."
However, just as Lin Fan was speaking...
A sudden change occurred.
Suddenly, an extremely dazzling dark red light erupted from the depths of the blood pool, which was about to reach its bottom.
An ancient, decaying pressure suddenly surged up from the bottom of the blood pool.
"roar--!"
Immediately following, a roar that did not sound like a human came from the bottom of the blood pool.
The sound waves transformed into tangible ripples, crashing violently against the surrounding walls.
"Snap!"
The dark red biological tissue attached to the wall exploded instantly.
The dozens of tentacles that were frantically sucking water were jerked back by this force.
The giant squid let out a pitiful hiss.
【pain……】
Lin Fan's eyes widened.
What can make a giant squid cry out in pain?
"retreat!"
Before he could figure out what was going on, Li Xiulan shouted sharply from the side.
At the same time, she raised her hand and pulled Lin Fan and Night Owl directly behind her.
A thick spatial barrier instantly formed, blocking the three of them.
"Splash!"
At the same time, the remaining black liquid in the blood pool was forcibly pushed away.
A huge thing slowly rose from the bottom of the pool.
The moment Lin Fan saw what it was, he gasped.
It turned out to be a throne.
A colossal throne made entirely of bones and rotting flesh.
And on the throne sat a skeleton.
The skeleton was draped in a tattered papal robe and wore a rusty crown of thorns on its head.
Its chest cavity was completely open, containing no internal organs, only a black, beating heart.
Each jump is accompanied by a distortion of the surrounding space.
What's even more shocking is that behind this skeleton, there were a full twelve black wings.
However, these wings were already rotten to the bone, covered with disgusting slime and maggots.
"This...this can't be the legendary twelve-winged angel, can it?"
Lin Fan's eyes nearly popped out.
Although he was not religious, he had heard that the highest-ranking angels in legend were twelve-winged angels.
He just didn't understand how the twelve-winged angel had become such a grotesque sight and was being soaked in a pool of blood.
The skeleton on the throne slowly raised its head.
Two eerie blue soul flames ignited in the empty eye sockets.
The Soul Flame locked onto Li Xiulan.
"mortal……"
The hoarse, shrill voice exploded directly in the minds of the three people.
"Those who disturb our slumber... die!"
The skeleton suddenly raised a bone hand.
Its twelve rotting wings unfolded instantly.
The gravity in the entire underground space increased tenfold instantly.
Even with Li Xiulan's spatial barrier, Night Owl couldn't help but groan, his legs buckled, and he almost knelt down.
He could barely keep his body afloat only by plunging the knife into the floor tiles.
Lin Fan was also pressed down so hard he couldn't straighten his back. His bones creaked under the weight.
"Damn it, they even forced us to kneel?" Lin Fan gritted his teeth.
Only Li Xiulan stood still, motionless.
She looked at the skeleton on the throne, a cold smile creeping onto her lips.
"A counterfeit product dares to act arrogantly in front of me?"
As she spoke, she loosely clenched her right hand.
"Click!"
The enveloping gravitational field shattered instantly.
Lin Fan and Night Owl immediately felt a sense of lightness and began to pant heavily.
"That charlatan."
As she spoke, she took a step forward.
The surrounding space began to shatter inch by inch, turning into countless invisible blades that hurtled straight toward the throne.
The soul fire in the skeleton's eye sockets flickered violently. It sensed a deadly threat.
It suddenly opened its jaw and let out a sharp screech.
A layer of black energy shield blocked his way.
"Bang bang bang!"
The spatial blades struck the shield, exploding into blinding sparks.
"Can't be cut open?" Lin Fan was taken aback.
Although he didn't know much about his mother's abilities, he was still quite surprised to see that even his mother couldn't cut the other side.
You know, Mom used to handle everything else with absolute ease.
"It is the fundamental power."
Just then, Mom's voice rang out, "It possesses primal power."
"Original power? What should we do then?" Lin Fan looked bewildered.
Li Xiulan turned to look at him, her tone flat: "Don't you still have two foodies? This is very nutritious!"
A powerful tonic?
Lin Fan's eyes lit up when he heard his mother's words.
If physical attacks don't work, how about magical attacks?
"Big crow!"
Thinking of this, Lin Fan didn't dare hesitate and immediately shouted in his mind,
"Never mind the pain, you and Xiao Wu, get it done!"
Upon hearing his command, the black vortex in mid-air expanded once more.
【eat……】
Two roars came from the depths of the vortex.
In an instant, dozens of tentacles rained down like a storm, completely ignoring the black shield around the skeleton and smashing into it.
The suction cups gripped the shield tightly.
"Sizzle sizzle—"
As a loud corrosive sound rang out, the skeleton was also tightly encased.
At the same time, the painful howls of the two squid echoed in Lin Fan's mental world, but even so, the big squid and the little squid still did not loosen their grip.
The skeleton never expected that the tentacle monster would disregard its corrosive power. It immediately roared angrily, its soul fire flashing wildly in its eye sockets, and its bone hands swung repeatedly, trying to sever the tentacles.
But Da Wu and Xiao Wu were determined to carry out Lin Fan's orders to the end, regardless of the pain.
More and more tentacles wrapped around it, completely encasing the skeleton and the throne into a giant dark purple meat dumpling.
"eat!!!"
Lin Fan cheered loudly from the side.
Big Crow and Little Crow were also going all out, devouring everything in sight.
"roar--"
In an instant, the skeleton let out a desperate roar.
But the sound was quickly drowned out by the sound of the tentacles chewing.
It lasted for a full ten minutes.
The wounded tentacles then slowly loosened.
As the tentacles receded, the center that had just been enveloped was revealed...
Not to mention the skeletons, even the throne of bones was licked clean.
Only a single black crystal remained, which fell to the ground with a clatter.
Seeing this, Lin Fan curiously stepped forward and picked up the crystal.
The crystal was icy cold, and faint sounds of ghosts howling and wolves emanated from within.
"What is this thing?" Lin Fan asked his mother.
Li Xiulan walked over, glanced at it, and said with a solemn expression, "It's the origin."
"The origin?" Lin Fan's eyes widened.
"Simply put, this thing is the energy core left behind by some transcendent beings after their death. Some people can obtain primal power by absorbing the residual energy emitted by this thing."
"Some beings call it 'divinity'!"
Li Xiulan looked up at the empty dome.
"I suspect that this primordial power is related to the twelve-winged angel."
"But the skeleton that absorbed this thing..."
She didn't continue.
But Lin Fan understood.
It's nothing more than that skeleton from before, a piece of junk, trying to use this primordial power to become an unparalleled being.
But unfortunately, I'm too incompetent, and I haven't succeeded yet.
Of course, if the skeleton were to completely absorb this source, the entire Blue Star would probably become a breeding ground for those monsters.
Lin Fan gripped the black crystal in his hand tightly.
He originally only went to Japan to cause some trouble.
I never imagined that I would encounter so many things along the way...
He looked down at the divine spark in his hand, and suddenly a thought struck him.
"mom."
Lin Fan looked at his mother.
"Since it can absorb even bone fragments, can it also...?"
He turned to look at Li Xiulan, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes.
"Absorbed by me?"
