Chapter 1074: Bloody Cocoon

The moment Chen Rui rushed into Dillosro’s mouth, he felt a terrifying fire force enveloped him, which was 100 times stronger than the flames outside. Even with the power of the intermediate stage of the Pseudo-God, he would be instantly turned to ashes.

However, Chen Rui was an exception.

Because the [Fire Phoenix Stigmata] on him could not only reduce the fire damage by 90%, but it also gave him 10% chance to be completely immune from fire damage, which was even stronger than the [Body of Light Glory] against the effect of light element power. This was thanks to the gift of his precious daughter back then.

The star armor’s special attribute could integrate his equipment and abilities, so Chen Rui also avoided the phenomenon of streaking.

Although the greatly reduced fire damage was not completely ineffective, Chen Rui only needed to activate [Star Guardian Wings] to basically isolate the effect. However, he was not immune to another power: Devour. New chapters are published on novelenglish.net . Fire(.)nᴇt

The life force and faith power all over his body were venting like a torrent uncontrollably. This was the terrifying talent of Dillosro’s ‘life devour’ and ‘faith devour’.

The strangest thing was that after rushing into Dillosro’s body, he didn’t see anything like internal organs, but it was like a high-temperature abyss. His body just fell down in that never ending dim space.

This situation was completely different from the feeling of being wrapped by the strange power when he was devoured by the phantom last time. If it was another Pseudo-God powerhouse, the faith and life of the entire kingdom that had been accumulated via hard work would be devoured entirely. In the end, he would be completely exhausted or lose the protective power, leading to only 1 dead end.

At this time, the attribute of the Galaxy Kingdom in Chen Rui’s Super System was fully revealed. The vast life force and faith power were almost inexhaustible, and it had been protecting Chen Rui. However, he was always in a passive state. Sooner or later, his power would be exhausted. This was the same as waiting for his own death.

What’s more, after falling all the way, there was no sense of link to Olypheus at all.

Chen Rui had experienced many battles and was no longer a rookie. He could see from the previous [Dimension Destruction] that Dillosro’s offensive and defensive strength was far superior to him, but it was not completely unshakable. This near-unsolvable situation in front of him was not really unsolvable. The key was to find the flaws or to break a certain balance and create flaws.

“[Invade Like Fire]!” After Chen Rui activated the might that increased his attack, his breath was surging. With a wave of his hand, 7 huge light balls appeared in front of him and burst open in an instant.

Although the power of [7-star Explosion] was strong, the surrounding space did not change.

Chen Rui frowned and activated a powerful aoe attack again.

“[Pole Star Storm]!”

Countless terrifying starlights drew dazzling arcs of death. The [Pole Star Storm] whistled through space. However, it was still useless like countless punches hitting the empty space, wasting all the effort.

Chen Rui frowned. This space not only has the power of devour, but the suppression of power is also quite strong. My attack power is much lower than usual, and the consumption of Star Power is almost doubled. The most troublesome is that my 2 strong attacks have no effect at all.

At this moment, the Water Shadow Pearl in his chest vibrates suddenly, and innumerable blue rays of light flew out to the surroundings. Affected by the power of this blue light, various special ‘patterns’ appeared in the originally dead space immediately.

“This should be the power of Dillosro’s Abyss space. I can feel that this space is composed of countless moving space layers that are constantly changing and overlapping, forming an endless loop. You need to find the trajectory of space movement, then attack the weakest joint. But the Water Shadow Pearl has a limited duration, so you need to hurry up.”

The Water Elemental King’s voice sounded. This bead was like Lambost’s eyes and ears. He could clearly sense the situation outside. The quality of this bead was also very special; it didn’t shatter due to Dillosro’s power. Of course, Chen Rui’s special physique and Star Power protection were also a major reason.

Chen Rui’s eyes lit up, Lambost once said that the Water Shadow Pearl had a special restraint on Dillosro’s kingdom, but its power was limited and could not be completely relied upon. Previously, when he tried to kill Dillosro by activating the [Dimension Destruction], he had no chance to use it. Now, it finally worked wonders here.

Chen Rui immediately activated the [Deep Analysis]. The pattern of the Water Shadow Pearl radiated as if some kind of special ‘developer’ was poured on an invisible picture. The brushwork and colors that were originally hidden were suddenly revealed.

As Lambost said, the effect of the Water Shadow Pearl was quite limited, and the blue light soon started to disappear, but in this short period of time, Chen Rui had figured out the rhythm of this space loop. As he shouted, the power of [Invade Like Fire] had risen to the apex. The magnificent power that had been charged in his right arm burst out. A red light with a strong destructive breath blasted out, [True Red Extinction]!

The red light of [True Red Extinction] did not divide the space into halves as usual. Instead, the red light suddenly twisted as if a straight line was folded into a lightning mark.

In fact, this powerful ultimate move hit a key part of the space, destroying the power of space that was circulating continuously, and the turning point was the crack formed by the blocking space.

“[Swift As Wind]!”

Chen Rui turned into a swift lightning and disappeared into the crack before the space engulfed the [True Red Extinction].

After passing through layers of barriers and finally penetrating the originally dead space, Chen Rui felt the light in front of him brighten, turning from a dark space to a dazzling blood red space.

This was a cave-like environment which was very huge. It was somewhat similar to the scene Chen Rui encountered in the Nightmare Volcano in the human world’s Nightmare Wilderness. Although the space was large, the atmosphere here was much more depressing and terrifying than there.

Chen Rui sensed the breath of Olypheus’ link nearby immediately. It was just right ahead.

Looking forward, the most conspicuous thing was a huge blood-colored vortex in the space.

The blood-colored vortex gave Chen Rui an extremely dangerous feeling. On the ground before the vortex, there were at least thousands of large and small circular red things. Looking closely, they were cocoon-like objects wrapping various forms of creatures with only the heads exposed. Most of these creatures were alive, exuding a rich emotional power: Despair.

The link breath of Ms. Black Dragon came from within. Chen Rui moved up and down at high speed before he found a bloody cocoon along the breath.

No doubt, Ms. Black Dragon was being imprisoned. Her black eyes seemed to have lost focus, staring blankly at the vortex ahead.

“Olypheus!” Chen Rui shouted, but Ms. Black Dragon still didn’t respond. Her face was dazed like she was a dead body.

At this moment, the Water Shadow Pearl on Chen Rui’s chest emitted blue light waves again, shining on Olypheus’ face. Gradually, Ms. Black Dragon’s eyes finally recovered a little bit of vitality.

“Boss…” Olypheus saw Chen Rui at first sight, and there was a strong surprise in her weak voice.

“What about Adeline and the others?”

“I don’t know…” Ms. Black Dragon suddenly thought of something, showing an extremely frightened expression as she cried, “Vesilna… Vesilna was eaten! Go and save Adeline and the others!”

“Eaten?” Chen Rui frowned. Seeing that Ms. Black Dragon was extremely exhausted both mentally and physically, he didn’t ask any further, “Don’t worry, I’ll look for Adeline and the others. Have a good sleep. When you wake up, it’ll be fine.”

With that said, Chen Rui activated the power of the Star Conferring Platform. Olypheus immediately disappeared from the bloody cocoon, and she was kept into the Super System in the merged state. The maximum duration of this merged state was 3 days, which could effectively treat mental and physical injuries. I believe Ms. Black Dragon should be able to recover after waking up from the merged state.

The question now is, are Adeline, Helen, Lalaria still alive?

Chen Rui began to quickly search through the bloody cocoons. At this moment, the ‘vortex’ in front of him suddenly wriggled like some kind of digestive organ, sending out a strong devouring power. Nearly 100 bloody cocoons that approached suddenly floated up and flew toward the vortex.

Chen Rui thought swiftly, and he finally understood what Olypheus meant by ‘Vesilna was eaten’. This ‘vortex’ should be equivalent to some kind of sacrificial altar!

Olypheus and others should have broken into the main altar for ‘treasure hunt’. Subsequently, they were captured by Dillosro and imprisoned in this sacrificial space as a sacrifice.

Every once in a while, the ‘vortex’ would automatically suck up a certain amount of bloody cocoons to complete a certain sacrifice ritual.

The reason why Vesilna’s spiritual link disappeared should be due to bad luck. Before Chen Rui found her, she was killed by devour. But then again, if it wasn’t for the disappearance of Vesilna’s spiritual link, Chen Rui would have no idea what happened to the ‘family-visiting and treasure-hunting team’ on the Dead Sea side.

Chen Rui’s eyes froze, because he suddenly saw 2 smaller bloody cocoons with 2 familiar faces, Helen and Lalaria, among the ‘sacrifices’!

“[Slow As Forest]!”

The speed of the bloody cocoons flying toward the vortex suddenly slowed down, and everything around it became ‘slow’. At this moment, Chen Rui had appeared in front of the vortex and grabbed the 2 blood cocoons one after another. No doubt it was Helen and Lalaria!

In the blink of an eye, the vortex resumed its original speed, engulfing all the blood cocoons. Meanwhile, Chen Rui appeared in the distance with the 2 blood cocoons that he took away while gasping for breath—From activating the [Pole Star Transformation] to now, he had already consumed a lot of Star Power. When he activated the time might again just now, he felt insufficient in power.

Neither of them had gone through the 1-star [Star-level Enhancement]. Even if he could perform star conferring on the spot, he could not integrate them into the Star Conferring Platform like Olypheus, so he could only use the Tower of Glory. However, that kind of bloody cocoon carried the powerful Abyss power that stopped them from being kept in the Tower of Glory. The bloody cocoon must be removed first.
