Chapter 345: Dark Young of Shub-Niggurath

Cthulhu, after yawning, seemed a bit confused, standing blankly in place, not knowing what he was thinking.

But its residual skull that had been blown away twitched wildly on the ground, swelling more than ten times in just a few seconds. Goat hooves drilled out from under the black mane, and tangled tentacles proliferated on the surface of the meat mass—the most gruesome thing was the giant mouth that cracked open on the tentacles, with jagged fangs constantly dripping yellow-green mucus.

"Dark Young... of Shub-Niggurath?"

Xie Yaoyao was dumbfounded; the appearance of the Dark Young before him completely broke his plan.

"How could it be a cub! What's the use of this kind of thing, did I get the array wrong? No, I didn't!"

Damn it, do you want me to fight Cthulhu one-on-one on this ocean?

Then I might as well continue to run away with Yingying and the others!

No, if I offend another Great Old One and run away, then I can't stay with them anymore, that's too dangerous!

Forget it, try my best!

Xie Yaoyao's figure disappeared in place again and appeared in another place. While flashing constantly, he kept leaving groups of dark red meat mince on the ground. If someone looked down from the sky at this time, they would find that the splashed flesh and blood were connecting into a huge totem.

And the Dark Young that grew up at Cthulhu's feet also launched its action!

Well, a crazy action!

The just-grown Dark Young turned its head and slammed into Cthulhu's foot beside it, and then its body made of tentacles tightly wrapped around it, and the mouths on the tentacles began to move on Cthulhu's leg one after another.

The tentacles of the Dark Young had just wrapped around Cthulhu's ankle, and the dark green scales were instantly scraped off by the serrated mouthparts. The moment the blue blood gushed out, the fangs in those suckers actually began to proliferate wildly—each tooth split into smaller mouths, and new meat bud tooth chains drilled out of the new oral cavities, gnawing into the tendons of the Great Old One like a self-replicating meat grinder.

The wound on Cthulhu's leg swelled violently, and coral-like nerve cords covered with eyeballs protruded from under the skin. These nerve cords accurately pierced into the suckers of the Dark Young's tentacles, pumping boiling pus into the other party's body. The Dark Young's entangled tentacles suddenly raised spider-web-like veins, and the spherical objects wandering in the veins seemed to have countless maggots wandering and eating in its blood vessels!

"Screech!"

Three corroded tentacles were broken off at the root, and they turned into screaming asphalt clumps upon landing. But dark red meat threads immediately sprayed from the broken parts, and the meat threads wove into thicker tentacle groups. The tips of the new tentacles cracked open ring-shaped mouthparts like lampreys, biting fiercely into Cthulhu's regenerating nerve cords.

Where the mucus mixed with the blue blood of the Great Old One and the black blood of the Dark Young dripped, poisonous mushroom forests hybridized with flesh and metal bloomed on the stone road!

Although its lower leg was tearing and swallowing with a Dark Young, Cthulhu's huge head was still squirming blankly, without any anger, pain, or other emotions.

It was more like teasing than fighting. Compared to the immortal and terrifying body of the Great Old One, the Dark Young's body, which could almost grow infinitely, was still much worse.

As time passed, the Dark Young's proliferating and mutating body became smaller and smaller under the constant corrosion of the Great Old One's blue blood, and finally, it was completely corroded, leaving only a poisonous mushroom forest on the ground!

"Whoosh!"

When Xie Yaoyao finally stopped flashing constantly, his figure appeared on a collapsed wall.

"Sure enough, that little thing is no match for Cthulhu! Cthulhu hadn't even noticed this little thing, and it was gone!" Xie Yaoyao scratched his head in distress. "However, although I didn't count on that Dark Young, now that I'm the only one left, I definitely can't handle... Eh! Something's wrong!"

The awakening of an Ancient God... is the confusion so great?

It's been so long and it hasn't fully woken up yet?

No, that's not right!

It's not that my plan went wrong, the Dark Mother is so cunning... no, it's not right, whether Shub-Niggurath has a brain is another matter, naturally, she can't be called cunning, everything she does is based on instinct, then...

Xie Yaoyao's mind turned, and all the flesh and blood left by him in the entire city of R'lyeh began to squirm, and soon they all deformed into piles of pyramid shapes.

Divine power operated, dark golden light flowed on the surface of the small pyramids, and the tips of the towers lit up with negative-like backlighting, dyeing most of the city of R'lyeh in a sickly negative tone.

And Cthulhu, who had been in a strange dazed state in the center of the city, seemed to have perceived something, and the huge head with squirming tentacles slowly turned over.

Although the Ancient God no longer had eyes, Xie Yaoyao still perceived a pair of huge and turbid yellow giant pupils appearing in his mind.

"Boom!"

Monstrous waves rose in the originally calm and waveless mental sea, and the huge Ancient God eyes truly appeared above Xie Yaoyao's mental sea.

"Caw! Caw!"

The phantoms of Helai'er and Lilisi tore through the surface of Xie Yaoyao's mental sea. Where the crow feathers swept, the raging waves instantly froze into an ink-colored ice field. A vermilion small umbrella pierced through the void, and the umbrella bones clanged and swelled into a blood-colored dome that covered the sky, isolating the Ancient God pupils in the high sky from the ice field.

And outside the mental space, Xie Yaoyao stood blankly in place for a long time, and then his entire head exploded into a sky full of flesh and blood, turning into a blooming flesh-and-blood rose.

As Xie Yaoyao's head exploded into a firework, the Ancient God eyes in the mental space gradually faded, and the entire mental sea returned to its original calm and slightly wavy state.

"As expected of an Ancient God, it's truly terrifying!"

Lilisi turned into the familiar female version of Xie Yaoyao, pointing like a light feather on the ink-colored ice surface, her fingertips still trembling slightly. She suddenly turned around and grabbed the red-clothed girl beside her, her cold lips pecking at the delicate face: "Thanks to our Little Annie, the cute little darling is really too amazing! Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to block the mental attack from the Great Old One by ourselves!"

"Hmm!"

Helai'er still didn't like the human body, and even in the mental world, she maintained the crow form.

Not to mention Lilisi and the others who blocked Cthulhu's gaze in the mental world, Xie Yaoyao's head, which had been suddenly blown off, also grew back after a squirm, but Xie Yaoyao at this time had no expression, his soul was no longer in his body.

In fact, the moment his head was blown off, Xie Yaoyao's soul came to a huge, misty space.

"This is... the universe?"

In the deep and misty distance, rotting stars floated in the thick darkness, and petrified tentacles stretched out from the star cores! Each tentacle was strung with civilization tombstones: Mayan Solar Calendar/Tower of Babel Brick/Atlantis Energy Pillar!

The huge city of R'lyeh beneath his feet was slowly rotating and floating. In the green mist of the city, countless skeletons were piled up into a huge maze, and the walls of the maze were embedded with billions of eyeballs, each replaying the moment of madness of intelligent creatures!

In the center of the maze, Cthulhu's true body was curled up in a coral womb, the umbilical cord connected to a mass of boiling black mist.
