Chapter 663: Saving the Dawn Goddess (Five Thousand)
That scene made Ron's scalp numb.
Unexpectedly, there were these strange sea snakes in the depths of the Black Sea. Even more unexpectedly, those who had long been dead, their flesh and blood turned into mud, and their bones were buried in the mud waiting to rot. Even the remaining souls had to continue to suffer the torture of sea snakes.
What kind of hatred could make people unable to rest in peace even after death?
Ron's face became very solemn.
He roughly knew the origins of these corpses and residual souls, and roughly guessed where these strange sea snakes came from.
In his ears, he could even hear the sharp and painful cries of those residual souls because of being bitten.
These residual souls should have dissipated long ago, but they were bound to this place by some mysterious force, suffering from pain and torture forever. They should not be treated like this.
Ron wanted to release them, save them, and give them freedom.
But Ron knew he couldn't do it.
He could use the power of the dawn to destroy the sea snakes, but those broken souls could not bear the temperature of the dawn. The warmth of the dawn was no less than the burning magma for these broken souls.
Even if their broken souls could stay for a short time under the dawn and they could gain a short period of freedom, they would soon dissipate.
As for wanting to completely save these broken souls, or even restore them to their normal appearance... Sorry, Ron really doesn't have this ability, even if he really becomes a god, he can't do it at all.
Not to mention him, even the entire Dusk Continent, including the most powerful fate maintainer in the heavens, definitely does not have this ability.
Perhaps, only the legendary omniscient and omnipotent existence can do this.
Let it go, let these broken souls continue to exist, and at the same time, these broken souls will continue to suffer the torture of sea snakes; or destroy the sea snakes and broken souls together, this is a very difficult choice for Ron.
Even with Ron's temperament, it is difficult to make a decision for a while.
After a long time, Ron suddenly sighed helplessly.
Forget it, forget it.
Let him go.
At least he is still alive. As long as he is alive, there is hope.
Ron finally made such a decision. He sighed and prepared to leave here and continue to look for the mysterious monument.
However, just when Ron's soul was about to leave, it suddenly stopped.
Some extremely subtle, delicate, mosquito-like sounds were quietly lingering in his ears, just like some kind of heart-pounding mumbling, but different from the mumbling in mysticism, mumbling is a murmur that is difficult to describe and cannot understand the meaning, but Ron can clearly understand the meaning of the sound he heard.
It was a very noisy movement, like hundreds of sounds mixed together.
Mixed, chaotic, but clear.
Each voice, like a sharp spike, pierced Ron's mind mercilessly, causing Ron's consciousness to feel a burst of piercing pain uncontrollably.
"Save me... I feel so bad..."
"It hurts so much..."
"Who can kill me..."
"Please, kill me..."
In an instant, Ron felt as if there was a large group of people wailing in his ears.
They... were in pain.
They were in so much pain that they begged for death.
Ron's nose suddenly felt sore.
These residual souls, originally they should have been strong men in ancient times. They fought against the invaders from outside the domain together with the first generation of Dusk King. They fought with all their lives, even if they died.
They did not enjoy the offerings of the descendants of the Dusk Continent, nor did they enjoy the incense of the world.
Their bodies could only sink into this dark ocean and turn into rotten mud.
Their skeletons could only sink to the bottom of the sea, gradually decaying with the passage of time, and their remaining souls could only endure endless pain under the bite of sea snakes.
This is... the punishment of those damn bastards in heaven for those who dared to resist them.
"Let's end it, I'm really fed up."
"I really want to take another look at the outside world..."
The chaotic voice continued to drill into Ron's mind, stimulating Ron's soul.
The bitterness deep in his heart became more and more intense.
No one could remember their achievements, and they could only become yellow mud.
But even if the remaining souls endured such torture, Ron still did not feel any resentment, some... just a desire for this world, they wanted to take another look at this world, that's all.
Although he was soaked in the sea water, Ron took a deep breath.
He had already made a decision in his heart.
Originally, Ron felt that it was better to live than to die, as long as he was alive, there was still hope.
But now, Ron's mind has changed.
For these beings, living like this is perhaps the greatest humiliation.
They would rather die cleanly on the battlefield than let their souls endure such humiliation and pain.
A light began to bloom from Ron's body.
A very soft light.
However, in the depths of this dark ocean, this little light seemed so dazzling.
The light became brighter and brighter.
The same gentle dawn as before dispelled the darkness in the Black Sea and brought light to the darkest corner of the world.
The dawn shone on the sea snakes, and those sea snakes seemed to feel great pain. Their slender bodies began to wriggle violently, stirring up small streams in the sea water.
Compared with the torture suffered by these predecessors, this pain may not be worth mentioning at all.
But these sea snakes can no longer bear it. Their bodies began to fester, and even the snake bones in their bodies could not withstand the temperature brought by the dawn.
Before long, all the sea snakes in the place where the dawn shone were instantly swept away.
Without the entanglement of the sea snakes, those residual souls finally broke free from the pain. Although the dawn would also cause considerable damage to their residual souls, Ron could no longer feel any pain in these residual souls, but only joy and excitement.
They finally gained freedom.
The residual souls cheered, and their souls gradually floated towards the sea above.
Ron's soul stayed silently on the bottom of the sea. He looked up and watched the gray-black soul shadows, densely packed against the trend.
He saw those souls rushing out of the sea with his own eyes.
At this moment, above the soul ferry, above the sky above the Black Sea, hundreds of stars dotted in the night sky, suddenly began to shine with unprecedented bright light, as if to guide the direction of these lost souls.
The residual souls floated and danced in the air.
It felt so good to be free.
It was so good not to have to endure that kind of torture anymore.
They wanted to cry, but they couldn't make any sound.
For a long time, the souls stayed in the air, silently looking at the sky above their heads and the shining stars.
Colorful light.
So beautiful.
No one knows how long those residual souls stayed in the air. Elsa stayed on the deck, motionless, just silently watching the squirming souls in the air, watching these souls gradually stretch their bodies and change their appearance.
They knew they were about to die.
But these souls did not show any self-pity, no sadness, no reluctance, no despair.
They just wanted to greet death with their most beautiful, most complete, and original appearance.
These confused souls began to change their direction.
Some of them became humans, handsome and unrestrained teenagers, mature and steady uncles, old men with white hair and beards, beautiful and charming women, and quirky girls.
Some of them became elves, with graceful figures, exuding the charm of elves.
Some of them became dragons, with huge bodies like mountains, and the scars on the majestic dragon horns were the most noble medals.
Some of them became members of the Dusk Tribe, with tall bodies, without any armor attached, but with a temperament of arrogance and looking down on the world.
This is their original appearance, and they think they are the most charming appearance.
Smiles were all over their faces. After a long time, a figure gradually opened his arms, as if embracing the world.
This action was like a beginning. More and more souls made the same action. They opened their arms and looked up at the sky above their heads.
Then, their souls... gradually began to disintegrate.
Among the gradually dissipating souls, there were more rays of light, like meteors, going against the trend.
In an instant, the sky above the Black Sea seemed to be experiencing an inverted meteor shower, with countless bright lights sliding through the air, and it became more beautiful in the dark night.
When the meteor shower ended, countless stars appeared in the sky.
It was like the most beautiful gem in the world, flashing and shining on the world.
Huh!
At the deepest part of the sea, Ron let out a long breath. Although he was a soul, he couldn't spit out any bubbles in the sea water.
He didn't know whether what he did was right or wrong, nor did he know whether his behavior would cause him any unnecessary trouble.
After all, those sea snakes were created by one of the administrators to torture these souls. He killed so many sea snakes at once, which would probably attract the attention of the administrator.
If that guy got angry, ran away, and wanted to kill him, it might be a bit dangerous.
But, so what?
Ron didn't have any regrets in his heart. On the contrary, he felt a little more happy in his heart.
In life, if you are timid about everything, what fun is there?
For Ron, he just did what he thought he should do, that's all.
Deep in his heart, as if some idea was clear, Ron felt quite happy for some reason.
This happy mood, even the realm of the Seven Stars of the Semi-God Realm, seemed to be eager to try, and there were signs of looseness.
With a laugh, the light on Ron's body seemed to become brighter.
He drifted towards the direction in his memory at a relatively slow speed.
The soft white light penetrated the thick sea water and reflected on the sea surface. Maybe the light was not strong, but it was extremely tenacious. Even the sea water thousands of meters deep could not stop the light from penetrating.
On the sea, layers of sea snakes twisted violently, as if they had encountered a new energy fishing machine, and their rolling bodies slapped the sea surface, raising waves.
In the depths of the sea, gray-black shadows rushed towards the sea surface with the joy of freedom.
There were more and more stars dotted on the sky.
Because Ron wanted to ensure that the dawn on his body could clean up the sea snakes, which would take some time, so Ron deliberately slowed down, so that this trip took several times longer.
Ron didn't feel very clear about how long it took, about one day, Ron finally stopped.
He found his goal.
It was a huge stone tablet.
The Nine-Step Heaven Tablet was already large enough, but in front of this stone tablet, the Nine-Step Heaven Tablet even looked too petite.
The stone tablet was dark.
The thick black fog was about to cover the dawn on Ron's body.
Looking up, Ron frowned suddenly.
He could feel that the black fog had covered a larger area.
The height of the entire stone tablet was at least 100 meters, and the width was about 20 meters. The surface of the entire stone tablet was densely packed with small stone tablets. A smaller stone tablet was five meters long and one meter wide.
In this way, there were about four hundred small stone tablets on the entire stone tablet.
When he first saw this stone tablet, there were at least a dozen small stone tablets that had not been completely submerged by the black fog.
But now, there was only the last small stone tablet that had not been swallowed by the black fog.
It was also the one at the bottom and the far right.
But even this small stone tablet was covered by the black fog for a little while, and one-third of the position on the small stone tablet was basically submerged by the black fog.
Ron could not even see the contents of this stone tablet completely. He could only see chains in the blur, twisting slowly like a poisonous snake.
The lower part of the stone tablet is a pair of long legs as white as jade. The leg shape is extremely perfect, even and delicate. If it weren't for the black chains wrapped around these two long legs, there would be no flaws at all.
A pair of jade feet with beautiful arches, hanging naturally.
The toes are round, like freshly peeled grapes.
Well, it is confirmed to be the goddess of dawn.
Although Ron can no longer remember which stone tablet the goddess of dawn was sealed on, he remembers the long legs and jade feet very clearly, and there is absolutely no mistake.
Ron can feel that the goddess of dawn Ostara is still alive.
There is no reason, just think so.
That's not all. At this moment, Ron can still clearly feel that Ostara's heart in his chest is beating violently and uncontrollably, like some special induction, which is hard to cut off and messy.
This also indirectly confirms that Ostara is still alive and has not been completely swallowed by the black fog.
This is good news.
However, Ron felt a little embarrassed about how to rescue Ostara.
Looking at the huge stone tablet in front of him, Ron didn't know where to start for a while.
Ron remembered very clearly that when he first saw the stone tablet, the sealed beings on the small stone tablets that were not covered by the black fog were still struggling desperately.
You don't need to guess that these small stone tablets are sealed with extraordinary beings.
It can be basically confirmed that they are all gods.
Or some beings as powerful as gods.
But even these powerful beings can't break free from the stone tablet. Ron doesn't think he has that kind of power.
Damn it.
Elsa just mentioned it before, thinking that if these gods can be awakened, they can also have more help in fighting against the fate maintainer.
As a result, I came here in a rush, but after coming here, I realized that things are far more difficult than I imagined. What should I do now?
If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have come here so rashly. It would be better to stay on the third floor to practice.
But... thinking about the residual souls entangled by sea snakes in the deep sea mud, Ron finally sighed, forget it, forget it, if he can release those residual souls, this trip will not be in vain.
However, he still has to think of a way.
Speaking of which, these black mists are full of evil and madness, and Dawn is the nemesis of this power.
Thinking of this, Ron raised his right hand and tried to reach out to the stone tablet.
Soon Ron's fingers felt a strong sense of rejection.
There was nothing in front of him, but he felt like he was being pushed out by force.
The law of force.
Ron shouted in a low voice, and the mysterious symbols of the law of force were connected into a line and wrapped around Ron's arm. In an instant, the strength of Ron's arm increased suddenly.
Crackling.
For a moment, Ron even felt a crackling sound in his ears.
It was like some invisible glass was breaking in front of him.
The fingers began to move closer to the stone tablet.
Every inch of movement was very difficult.
That is to say, Ron's soul strength is now high enough, otherwise, just this action alone would be enough to cause Ron's soul to suffer irreversible trauma.
It was obviously only a short distance, but Ron felt as if he had experienced several hours. Finally, Ron's fingers touched the stone tablet.
Buzz.
