"This is where."
When Zhao Xiong opened his eyes again, he found that he was no longer in the circus, but in a different dimension of nothingness and darkness.
It was as if he was no longer in the real world, and there was no earth under his feet, as if there was a deep bottomless abyss below, and he could still stand stably without inhaling air, and there was no discomfort.
"I remember that something devoured Lao Tzu's consciousness."
Zhao Xiong recalled what happened before.
The so-called "Blood Council" forcibly invited him and brought his consciousness into this mysterious space.
"Anyone there."
Zhao Xiong opened his mouth, but he couldn't make a sound. It seemed that the medium of sound transmission was lost here.
This unknown space is lifeless, like a dead place, only rich in darkness.
Click!
I don't know how long it has passed, or it may only be a moment, and the surroundings have changed.
The boundless darkness began to recede, as if the deep curtain was pulled away, and a magnificent and huge palace appeared.
Blood and flames illuminated the dome, and the ground paved with obsidian made Zhao Xiong feel down-to-earth.
On the huge hall, a mysterious rune barrier shrouded the surroundings, isolating the dark matter from the outside world. The darkness outside was like a living creature, trying to squeeze and break through the barrier to enter it, but could not succeed. The whole building seemed to be rooted in this nothingness. in the dark space.
The huge hall was empty, blood and flames erupted from time to time, and there was not even a table. Only in front of the hall, there were three huge statues of the heads of ferocious monsters.
A fiery flame was burning inside the head statue, and his eyes were dark. Zhao Xiong felt that the three statues were like living creatures, as if they were staring at him.
"This is the site of the Blood Council? It's a bit too low." Zhao Xiong couldn't help thinking.
There is nothing compelling at all, at least there must be a huge long table and a circle of high-backed chairs carved with mysterious patterns. Why is there not even a ghost here.
"You are welcome to voluntarily join the blood council and become the seventh member of the council." At this time, a hoarse voice came from one of the statues.
The voice is weird, low, stiff, like an unintelligent translation tone.
Voluntary shit, I don't even know what you are, you guys pulled it hard.
Zhao Xiong understood what it said and cursed inwardly, but did not argue because it was meaningless.
Since the other party can forcibly bring his consciousness here, it means that he has a strength far beyond imagination, and it is useless to have a stinky mouth.
He didn't panic. Zhao Xiong wanted to see what the other party wanted to do first. Although he didn't know if he was malicious, if he wanted to kill himself, he probably wouldn't do this shit.
"I am the president of the Council of Blood."
The statue said: "In the endless years, the Blood Council has witnessed many worlds that are about to be destroyed, and now your world is about to come to an end.
The destruction of your world is doomed, and nothing can stop it from happening. Even if you want to change it forcibly, it is impossible, and it will even exacerbate its demise. "
"Oh."
It blows quite a bit.
At this time, Zhao Xiong was able to speak. After thinking about it, he asked, "So you want to save or destroy the world?"
"Do not."
The statue continued: "The process of the world does not require external interference. Destruction or rebirth are all affected by the choices made by the beings in the world."
"Oh."
Zhao Xiong didn't believe even a punctuation mark. Since he didn't interfere, why did he bring Lao Tzu here?
Sure enough, the statue then started its performance.
The statue said: "As the blood council with supreme order, it is not only your honor to invite you to join, but it is also inevitable, because you are one of the beings destined to affect the progress of this world."
Zhao Xiong was noncommittal, but he felt that it might be his inextinguishable mad thunder bloodline that caught the council's attention. After all, he was at least a demigod in the future.
Other than that, I can't think of any other reason.
The statue continued: "Before each dying world is completely destroyed, the council will invite the people of that world to enter and ask them to get something.
Tinder, you can understand it as a special substance of the origin of the world, which is now scattered all over your world.
This is a precious thing that will dissipate with the destruction of the world. Instead of wasting it, it is better to collect it and exchange it with the council.
Your strength is very special, and it will be very strong when you grow up in the future, but you can't bear the long growth period, because your world can't last that day.
So, you can collect tinder for equivalent exchange here, of course, we will give you the right to choose, how you choose will depend on you. "
Yes, there is indeed a conspiracy. Is this making Lao Tzu a troll?
Zhao Xiong understood on the spot.
This so-called fire seed should be the source material of the world. Stealing this thing and giving it to this blood council will definitely speed up the demise of the world.
Fart, this is the world that Lao Tzu lives in. So many beloved relatives, friends and brothers and sisters are here, not to mention that there are countless fresh lives living here. Do you want me to be the executioner?
Excessive! Must pay extra!
"what can you give me?"
"Power, the power that can activate the bloodline, even enough to get you out of this barren low-level planet. "
"Then Gul... ahem, what's the price?"
"The price?"
The statue said: "This is just a fair transaction, an exchange of equal value. The Blood Council follows the ancient order. As long as a contract is made here, no one can violate it."
"I have to let Ben Xiong think about this."
Zhao Xiong did not agree on the spot.
Mainly because I have seen too many profiteers before, this statue only talks about exchange, but doesn't mention what kind of fire that needs to be exchanged, what it is useful for, how difficult it is to get it, and what to do if you can't figure it out.
Moreover, this guy has ruined the world for nothing, opening his mouth is barren, closing his mouth is a low-level, how can he still be obsessed with the origin of the world? Full of nonsense, Xiong really can't believe it.
Swish!
At this time, several black beams of light appeared in the open space of the main hall, and a vague figure appeared among them.
"Not in a hurry."
The statue explained: "Today is the meeting day of the parliament. Let me first let you know a few other members."
Zhao Xiong looked around, remembering that the statue said just now that he is the seventh member of parliament, and there are six more in front of him, but why there are only five beams of light.
As the black beam of light gradually disappeared, five figures appeared on the hall.
A calf-high little loli, a crow who looks like a thief, a fox standing upright, a humanoid skeleton of an unknown monster, and a cloud of indistinct fog.
Looking at these five guys, Zhao Xiong's expression was a bit strange, is this the so-called other councilor?
Except for the little loli, the others don't look very normal.
No, in this case, this little human loli should be the most abnormal one.
