Samsara Paradise: Dream Weaver of Connections.

A strange beast of flesh and blood appeared in front of everyone, its exposed muscle fibers squirming in the air and its dark red blood vessels coiled around its body like snakes.

It has no eyes, but everyone can feel it - it is "watching" the artillery position.

After crawling out of the flesh and blood, the strange beast locked its empty "sight" on the artillery position not far away.

Sticky saliva dripped from the corners of its cracked mouth, corroding the ground with hissing scorch marks.

Deep in its memory, the taste of these tiny creatures seemed to be extremely delicious - although it did not understand why it had such a memory, at this moment, it felt a violent wriggling from deep within its abdomen, and the feeling of hunger swept over it like a tide.

Seeing the strange beast drooling over them, all the soldiers silently turned their cannons towards the strange beast.

"Fire!" Dozens of cannons roared at the same time. The hot shells tore through the air and rushed straight towards the squirming mass of flesh and blood.

The flames of the explosion engulfed the figure of the strange beast, and the dust raised by the shock wave covered half of the sky.

However, the next second, a sticky tearing sound was heard in the smoke.

The monster's incomplete body staggered out of the smokescreen, and the shattered half of its body was regenerating at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The broken blood vessels twisted and tangled like living things, weaving themselves into scarlet muscles again. The bullet embedded in the flesh and blood was slowly pushed out by the squirming tissue and fell to the ground with a clang.

The artillery commander spat out the half-smoked cigar in his mouth. The spark struggled on the sand for a moment and then went out.

He narrowed his eyes, staring at the horrible body that was constantly regenerating in the distance, but a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

This bombing made him realize one thing, at least this monster could not completely ignore their firepower.

In that case, just keep bombarding it until it can no longer stand up.

"Everyone listen up - saturation attack, lock the coordinates, bomb them until there is nothing left!"

In an instant, the entire artillery position seemed like a giant beast awakening.

All gun barrels adjusted their angles at the same time. The loaders moved almost frantically, high-explosive shells, incendiary shells, armor-piercing shells - all the ammunition in stock was stuffed into the gun barrels without any reservation.

"put!"

The roar of the second round of salvos was even more deafening than before. The shells poured down like a rainstorm, and the fireballs produced by the explosions rose one after another, completely turning the location of the strange beast into the core of purgatory.

The earth groaned and collapsed under the continuous shock waves, and a charred crater with a diameter of 30 meters took shape at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The high temperature distorted the air, and the soldiers watching the battle from a distance had to raise their arms to cover their faces - the flying hot gravel could burn exposed skin even a hundred meters away.

The smoke had not yet cleared when the third round of shelling arrived.

This time, the artillery coverage was even expanded to a hundred meters around to prevent the monster from having any chance of escape.

Flesh and blood were turned upside down and shattered, and shrapnel and flames intertwined into a web of death.

"Keep going! Don't stop!" The regiment commander shouted from the command vehicle, his military coat rustling in the heat. "Use all the ammunition!"

The shelling lasted for a full minute, and when all the shells on the field were fired, the entire position fell into a brief silence.

The soldiers were breathing heavily, leaving only the hissing sound of the overloaded gun barrel cooling down, and the dark red metal surface caused the surrounding air to evaporate into distorted ripples.

In the distance, Bernal's eyes were fixed on the land that had been plowed countless times.

The smoke gradually dissipated...

In the center of the crater, there was only a pool of slowly wriggling flesh.

It was still trying to aggregate, but its regeneration rate was much slower than before - with every cell division, large chunks of tissue died and fell off due to energy exhaustion, dripping onto the scorched earth like melted wax.

The Dark Erosion underground could feel the demise of the flesh-and-blood beast in the outside world. That was his carefully cultivated backup, a monster that was powerful enough to tear apart an entire army, but it was blasted into ashes under artillery fire.

Now he was a little confused about how many artillery shells Lin Yi brought this time.

It has been bombarded for almost half a day, and there is still stock.

"Hahahaha! Judging from your expression, you didn't expect it! Waste!" DuBois Bertram's crazy laughter exploded in the underground altar.

Dark Eclipse's face turned completely gloomy, and a rare hint of anxiety flashed in his eyes.

The tenacity of this madman far exceeded his expectations - according to common sense, the possessed person would completely lose self-awareness within an hour at most.

However, Du Bois was not assimilated. Instead, he was like a stubborn reef, remaining unmoved no matter how the spiritual waves washed over him.

What’s even more hateful is that this madman is still constantly provoking him with words, trying to launch a counterattack on the spiritual level.

However, considering that Dubois Bertram is the only seventeen-eyed ghost on the continent, Dark Eclipse feels that it is normal for the other party to have such strength.

The statue of the Immortal King on the altar was changing. Countless black lines as thin as hair were crawling and climbing on the surface of the stone statue like living things, and now they had spread to the bridge of the nose.

Once the entire statue is completely covered with black lines, the Immortal King will be able to enter this world through the statue as a medium.

“Shut up!” Dark Eclipse clenched his fists, trying to suppress the madman’s consciousness in his body. “The ritual will be completed soon. When the Immortal King comes, everyone must——”

"Everyone has to die? Hahaha, I got tired of hearing this kind of clichéd line hundreds of years ago!" Dubois laughed wildly, and a violent mental force burst out from the depths of his soul, slamming into Dark Erosion's will. "Do you think I will let you do what you want?"

Dark Eclipse groaned, cold sweat oozing from his forehead.

He was shocked to find that Du Bois's resistance was even more fierce than before - this madman was actually using the influence of external artillery fire to attack his spirit in reverse!

"you……!"

Looking at the statue of the Immortal King in the center of the altar - at this moment the black line has already climbed to the brow bone of the statue, and it is only a few inches away from completely covering it.

But at this most critical moment, Du Bois's resistance and the continuous interference of artillery fire from the outside world delayed the progress of the ceremony.

"There's no time..." Dark Erosion suddenly bit his tongue, and a mouthful of blood mixed with black energy splattered on the face of the statue.

"laugh--"

The moment the black blood touched the statue, the stagnant black lines suddenly squirmed wildly and devoured the blood on the statue, and the climbing speed suddenly increased!

"Haha. Ahem. The cornered beast is desperate." Dubois' voice began to become intermittent, but still full of sarcasm. "Use my blood essence to speed up the ritual? This body can't hold out until the end."

Dark Eclipse turned a deaf ear and stared at the statue.

The black line has spread to the forehead, only the last area is missing——

Suddenly, the entire underground space shook violently!
The rock wall above collapsed with a deafening explosion, and a dazzling white light pierced through the crack like a sword of judgment, shining squarely on the face of the statue.

“What is this...?!” Dark Erosion’s pupils suddenly shrank and he raised his head to look upwards.

At this moment, the flesh and blood above finally broke through the last layer of defense under Lin Yi's continuous bombardment, exposing the entire underground altar.

"Report to the commander, an abnormal cavity was found at the bottom of the crater!"

It was obvious that the real culprit finally showed up after attacking for such a long time.

"Everyone, don't save the shells, bring out all the remaining shells! Bomb them to death!"

The first round of shells accurately poured into the cave entrance, and the shock wave of the explosion made the entire underground structure groan under the heavy burden.

The dark barrier that Dark Eclipse had just erected was torn apart by artillery fire the moment it came into contact with the warhead, and shrapnel, engulfed in flames, raged on the altar.

Dark Eclipse tried to wrap the statue with its shadow, and suddenly a tiny crack appeared on the statue's left eye. Some terrifying existence beyond dimension seemed to be awakening.

Du Bois seized this critical opportunity and launched an attack in the spiritual world.

One third of Dark Erosion's control over his body was instantly taken away. Dubois controlled his right hand and strangled his neck fiercely, while Dark Erosion's left hand was still stubbornly protecting the statue.

"You lunatic!" Dark Eclipse's face was twisted into two strange halves, one half of his face was roaring ferociously, and the other half showed a crazy smile.

But at this moment, a horrifying energy wave suddenly exploded in the cave.

All the soldiers felt an instinctive shudder at the same time, like a herbivore suddenly smelling the scent of a predator, and their fingers began to tremble uncontrollably.

A beam of pure black light burst out from the center of the statue's eyebrows and penetrated into Dubois' forehead with precision, like a living thing.

Then, Dark Eclipse suddenly felt a repulsive force appearing in his body. Before he could resist, he was expelled from Dubois' body.

"Damn it! Who are you?" Dubois showed a look of horror on his face, and the seventeen eyeballs on his head were spinning like a top.

He could feel a strange force emerging in his body.

"Let go." His voice suddenly split into two tones, with the original madness mixed with some ancient whispers. "I didn't expect that the bloodline left in this world back then could evolve to this level. It's really beyond my expectations. In this case, then contribute your own strength to my coming." The voice of the Immortal King appeared in Dubois's body.

Dubois's remaining consciousness roared in the depths of his mind: "Get out of my body!"

His left hand suddenly shot up, his five fingers hooked around his throat, his nails pierced directly into his carotid artery, and the spurting blood drew an arc on the altar.

"It's useless, little guy." The Immortal King moved his new body comfortably. "Your blood originally came from me. Now you are just returning to your roots."

As the last trace of consciousness was crushed, Dubois' existence completely dissipated into nothingness.

Dark Eclipse's body was shaking violently in the void. He had never felt such a terrifying sense of oppression.

Twenty eyeballs were arranged in an orderly manner on the forehead of Dubois - no, now it should be called the container of the Immortal King.

Dubois's body also underwent tremendous changes under the transformation of the Immortal King. It was compressed from nearly three meters to less than two meters. The muscle lines on his body also became extremely smooth. One could feel the tremendous power contained in the muscles just by looking at them.

"Well, this container is unexpectedly suitable, but it's too empty."

Just as the Immortal King was preparing to adapt to his new body, several armor-piercing bullets penetrated the rock and exploded in brilliant fireballs around the altar.

The flying shrapnel hovered strangely three inches away from his skin, and then turned into powder as if crushed by an invisible hand.

"What is that?" The Immortal King fanned away the smoke. Even though these shells exploded at close range next to the Immortal King, they did not cause any harm to him at all.

And with the arrival of the Immortal King, a reminder came to the ears of all the contractors at the same time.

[Tip: If you fail to stop the sacrifice ceremony, the main mission will fail. Since the hunter has the immunity from the failure of the main mission, the failure of this main mission will not cause any punishment to the hunter.]

[The hunter has obtained the permission to return, please come within one hour. 】

[Hint: The Immortal King (avatar) has descended successfully]

[The difficulty level of the Phantom Continent is being adjusted. The current range is: Lv.21~Lv.58 (extremely dangerous)]

Following a series of prompts from the Samsara Paradise, more than half of the contractors at Lin Yi's position suddenly disappeared.

Some of the contractors were forcibly executed by the Samsara Paradise due to mission failure, but most of the fourth-level contractors returned to the Samsara Paradise through the life-saving authority.

With so many war worlds from the first to the fourth level, there will always be one or two war worlds that can obtain the authority to be exempted from penalties for failure in the main mission.

"So it's you bugs." The Immortal King left the cave. When everyone saw the twenty eyeballs on the Immortal King's head, the entire military camp fell into deathly silence.

The cigarette in Bernal's mouth even fell to the ground. You know, the Zul Empire paid a huge price to besiege a sixteen-eyed phantom.

And now, the monster in front of him actually has twenty eyes? A terrible thought flashed through his mind: Is this world really about to end?

"Open fire! Smash this monster to pieces for me!"

Several unbelieving artillerymen roared and lit the fuses. Several heavy artillery pieces roared deafeningly at the same time. The blazing shells cut through the sky and headed straight for the Immortal King's location.

"Boring." The Immortal King didn't even bother to raise his hand. Wherever his eyes went, the whistling shells suddenly solidified in mid-air, and then twisted and deformed like plasticine being kneaded by an invisible giant hand.

The steel barrel softened strangely and fell to the ground like cooked noodles.

The shells in the ammunition box exploded one after another, but they failed to even lift the corners of his clothes.

"You troublesome bugs, go to hell."

A dark energy wave spread out from his body, the air made a teeth-grinding tearing sound, and the gravel on the ground turned into powder silently.

Almost at the same moment, the soldiers within a two-kilometer radius suddenly stiffened.

The next second, thousands of bodies exploded like burst balloons, and flesh, blood, and internal organs turned into a scarlet rain curtain that fell on the ground.

"Weird, monster!"

The surviving soldiers screamed heart-wrenchingly, dropped their weapons and fled in all directions.

The entire military camp fell into complete chaos in an instant. Some people were pushed to the ground, and some even had a mental breakdown and knelt down to pray.

……

Looking at the series of question marks in front of him, Lin Yi understood that the other party was definitely not someone he could deal with.

The Immortal King seemed to have sensed Lin Yi's investigation, and all the eyeballs on his head looked in the direction of Lin Yi.

"Hmm? Strange, how could there be guys from the Abyss in this world?" In an instant, the voice of the Immortal King appeared in Lin Yi's ears.

When Lin Yi reacted, he discovered that the Immortal King had appeared about three meters in front of him without him noticing.

Lin Yi's back was instantly soaked with cold sweat, and all the muscles in his body instinctively tensed up.

"But it doesn't matter. Let me see your background." The Immortal King stretched out a hand towards Lin Yi, wanting to seize Lin Yi's memory.

At this moment, Lin Yi felt his hair stand on end, and a strong sense of danger appeared around him.

Without any hesitation, Lin Yi used the Abyss Holy Shield to briefly separate himself from this world.

"Huh?" The Immortal King showed a look of surprise. He increased his strength, but found that the barrier that seemed as thin as a cicada's wing did not move at all, but instead rebounded all his strength.

The Abyss Holy Shield only lasts for ten seconds, but Lin Yi has now thought of a way to deal with the Immortal King.

He searched around in his personal space and finally found a hidden prop.

The moment Lin Yi put on Little Red Riding Hood, the whole world seemed to be splashed with a thick layer of fairy tale colors.

The sky was like a canvas painted by a child, instantly dyed into a dreamy pink and blue, and the edges of the fluffy clouds shimmered with a icing-sugar luster.

The ground turned into an infinitely stretched red and white checkered picnic blanket, and in the distance came the clear melody of a nursery rhyme like a music box.

"What kind of illusion is this?" The Immortal King's voice suddenly became shrill, like a puppet with its neck strangled.

"Mr. Big Bad Wolf~"

A sweet child's voice sounded behind the Immortal King. He turned around and saw a little girl in a red hood sitting on a tree stump, swinging her legs.

In the basket she was holding, a few bloody eyeballs could be vaguely seen?

"You, what are you?!" The Immortal King was shocked and furious. He tried to mobilize the power in his body, but found that all his abilities had turned into childish fairy tale tricks. Now he could only pop out a few funny little flowers.

Little Red Riding Hood tilted her head, her innocent smile hiding a creepy malice: "Grandma said that bad children need to be educated well~"

She gently opened the basket -

“Puff!”

The Immortal King's body began to twist and deform like a broken doll, with every joint folded in reverse and crooked stitches appearing on his skin.

"Hehe, this is another good doll material." (End of this chapter)
