Chapter 775: Crying and Shouting

The paleness quickly eroded the "Other Side World" of the bird-clawed monster infant, letting the wilderness that had been spread out become dim, leaving only one color, and there was no obvious difference from the destroyed palaces, high towers, and corridors around it.

This "Other Side World" essentially lost the trait of separating the inside from the outside.

It was equivalent to having already withered and died.

Following the collapse of the white-boned giant snake, Lu Mian fell straight, falling toward the broken walls and ruins scattered within the "wilderness".

He used force in his waist and back, his body leaning forward, a backflip, landing steadily, not using the transformation into a scorching white flame spear to avoid the damage brought by the fall from a high place.

—In this pale kingdom, the power of the earth and the rules of the world also seemed to have been eroded; falling toward the ground from a height of forty or fifty meters was equivalent to jumping from a house five or six meters high.

At this time, the head of Oseto's monster child also shrank back into the pale ball of flesh, and the Temperance Faction demigod Sharon was forced to detach from its body, floating in mid-air.

In this area close to the "Death" main hall, five or six terrifying undead creatures stood up, swaying, affected by the "Other Side World".

Among them were two giant snakes with feathered wings and long hair on their skeletons, a blue-black giant that had puffed up due to high rot, a human-shaped mountain piled up by white, bone-like skeletons, and a female whose hair was as thick as snakes and whose face had rotted by two-thirds.

Each of these undead creatures awakened by the bird-clawed monster infant brought a powerful pressure to "Knight of Swords" Malic.

As a Sequence 5 "Prisoner" pathway Beyonder who could drive living corpses, he felt that he couldn't control these corpses at all; the only ending of wanting to forcibly awaken them was to be torn apart by the corpses on the spot, both spirit and flesh.

The corpses, whether massive or terrifying or both, locked onto the Temperance Faction demigod Sharon instantly.

But their movements were all stiff and slow, as if they were affected by some kind of influence, failing to launch an attack at the first moment.

Sharon could also manipulate living corpses and drive the undead, and she was a true demigod, with a rank higher than the premature bird-clawed monster infant!

Sharon distracted herself to influence the former followers of "Death", giving Oseto's monster child a chance for a new life; that pale ball of flesh bloomed like a flower bud, spitting out a massive infant that looked as if it had been washed by pure lake water, while it itself withered rapidly, dyed pale, and fell to the ground rotten.

Just when the massive infant spread its half-pale, half-brownish-brown wings again, Sharon actively gave up her influence on those corpses.

Her pale eyes reflected the bird-clawed monster infant floating in mid-air, and she opened her mouth, emitting a scream that seemed to come from the depths of her soul.

The massive infant stiffened instantly, turning into a lamb covered in pale fluff; the lamb couldn't fly, nor could it use any supernatural abilities, falling straight toward the ground, falling toward Lu Mian, who was holding the "Sword of Courage" with both hands.

"Transformation Curse"!

Without the maintenance of Oseto's monster child, the "Other Side World" gradually disintegrated; those terrifying corpses that had been awakened lost the foundation that guaranteed their own existence, slowly stopping their movements under the influence of paleness, falling toward different places in the ruins.

The lamb's body, covered in pale fluff, was like suffering from internal pollution; during the process of falling, its skin split open, growing half-pale, half-brownish-brown feathers, and its belly wriggled and bulged, as if gestating a new life.

No creature can escape the fate of being polluted by evil and gestating life, even if it's just an ordinary lamb!

This is the trait of the "Lady" pathway; the "Transformation Curse" also cannot make the corresponding Beyonder lose these two traits!

Sharon never expected to solve Oseto's premature child just by relying on the "Transformation Curse"; she seized the opportunity, letting her figure, dyed pale, reflect into the eyes of the mutated lamb.

The speed at which the lamb's belly wriggled and expanded began to slow down, and the alienation produced by pollution was no longer so rapid.

It continued to fall toward the ground at high speed.

Lu Mian, standing on the ground, tilted his head, revealed a smile, and raised the large straight sword burning with scorching white and cyan flames.

Just when the lamb was about to enter his attack range, a spear composed of pure, scorching sunlight flew over from the half-collapsed high tower.

"Knight of Swords" Malic once again bore no small amount of damage and terrifying pain, projecting the sunlight spear that could illuminate this paleness.

This time, the bird-clawed monster infant in the lamb state couldn't dodge anymore, nor could it find a helper who could block this spear for it, only able to watch as the golden sunlight spear pierced its abdomen and erupted suddenly.

Only until this moment, until the scorching and scorching white sunlight drowned the target, did the Temperance Faction demigod Sharon use "Mirror Jump" to detach from the area where the sunlight was brilliant and the paleness was fading, with the help of Lu Mian's eyes and the pure gold in the nearby ruins.

During this process, although the lamb's body helped her block the most direct damage produced at the moment of the sunlight's eruption, as a Beyonder who had turned into an evil spirit, she still inevitably suffered quite serious influence.

When her figure appeared on a golden pattern embedded on the wall a few hundred meters away, it had already become significantly thinner, and quite a few wax-like liquids were dripping down like sweat.

Lu Mian was very close to that pale lamb, but he was full of courage, didn't go to dodge, and stood firmly in place, "welcoming" the sunlight that was spreading over.

Wearing the Aigris family's golden mask, his entire person was ignited; his body was charring, melting like a candle, which brought extreme pain.

That is to say, he wasn't located in the core area of the sunlight's eruption; most of the damage fell on the bird-clawed monster infant, and Sharon also bore a part, otherwise he might have been purified by the sunlight spear in one blow.

Of course, the "Sword of Courage" shared half the damage for him, making the actual trauma he suffered not as serious as it looked on the outside.

Lu Mian gritted his teeth, advancing instead of retreating, holding the large straight sword that had been eroded to paleness in both hands, sprinting toward the place where the bird-clawed monster infant was about to fall.

Amidst a very slight "thud" sound, the pale lamb, which had melted by more than half and looked terrifying, fell onto a pile of broken, dim stone blocks.

Lu Mian arrived a second late; his eyes were first iron-black, then pale.

He used force in both hands, slashing out the "Sword of Courage".

The scorching white and cyan firelight lit up, and the hard, sharp straight sword hit the chest and abdomen position of the pale lamb.

The sound of the explosion, which wasn't loud, was emitted, but the firelight stirred up and the violent shockwave produced lifted the broken stones around, blowing the pale lamb's chest and abdomen into a hideous crack whose edges weren't flat at all.

Boom! Boom!

Lu Mian slashed two more swords firmly, slashing the bird-clawed monster infant's lamb body into four or five pieces, charred everywhere.

Those charred parts were instantly eroded by the color of paleness, bringing out a dim, deathly feeling.

Just when Lu Mian was preparing to slash the "Sword of Courage" again, the corpse block where the pale lamb's abdomen was located suddenly exploded, scattering rotten flesh and liquid with a strange aura in all directions.

Lu Mian instinctively slashed the "Sword of Courage" toward the void in front, slashing open everything there.

A boom rang out; the scorching white flames, together with the violent shockwave, formed a sturdy wall, blocking the rotten flesh blocks and exceptionally evil liquid outside.

Following the explosion of the pale lamb's abdominal corpse block, a small, illusory figure covered in a layer of pure water flow, with bird claws and wings, flew out, heading straight for the pitch-black bird egg beneath the ancient Death's corpse.

This time, the bird-clawed monster infant, which had retreated into a phantom, was no longer cautious, no longer circling and hovering to approach bit by bit.

"Knight of Swords" Malic could no longer throw the sunlight spear; that would cause him, who had suffered heavy injuries, to completely vanish in the light that illuminated all shadows. He could only open his arms, letting a holy pillar of light composed of pure, scorching sunlight descend from the sky, shrouding the bird-clawed monster infant phantom flying toward the top of the "Death" main hall.

The bird-clawed monster infant's figure first disappeared, then reappeared in an instant, avoiding the attack of the holy pillar of light, but was then locked onto by the pale eyes of the Temperance Faction demigod Sharon.

Sharon turned into a dim, stiff doll, sealing herself with layers of cold ice.

Accompanied by this action, layers of crystalline cold ice also emerged around the bird-clawed monster infant, which fixed its figure in place for a short time, unable to disappear, unable to move forward.

The bird-clawed monster infant raised its head, letting the sound of wailing and screaming echo within the cold ice cage.

The cold ice cage shattered and disintegrated silently.

And the layer of clear, pure water flow on the bird-clawed monster infant's body spilled toward the ancient Death's corpse, turning into droplets of crystal-clear, pale golden liquid that hadn't been dyed pale.

These liquids were attracted by some kind of force, gathering into a river, carrying the bird-clawed monster infant toward the pitch-black bird egg burning with pale flames.

At the same time Lu Mian saw this scene, he instinctively wanted to avoid the ancient Death's corpse; he simply leaned his body backward, raised his arm, and threw the "Sword of Courage" in his hand fiercely.

This straight sword, which had been eroded to paleness but was burning with scorching white and cyan flames, was like a cannonball with self-consciousness, swishing across a distance of several hundred meters, and in the trail of fire left in mid-air, fell toward the bird-clawed monster infant.

"Lock on"!

Boom!

The sky near the pitch-black bird egg rolled with expanding scorching white firelight, growing a pale cloud that looked like a mushroom.

Silently, within the firelight and clouds that were still expanding, bits of phantom-like corpse blocks fell charred, as if a dust storm of powder was raining down.

Those dust particles hadn't even landed before they had all turned pale, some blown by the wind, sprinkling onto the pitch-black giant egg.

Almost simultaneously, Lu Mian heard an illusory shattering sound and felt that his "Reaper" potion had been completely digested.

He hadn't even had time to be happy when his spirit and consciousness, protected by the Aigris family's golden mask, were filled with emotions like fear and fright.

He lowered his head, knelt toward the ground, hugged his body, and shivered.

He only wanted to obey the orders of that corpse of the Phoenix ancestor.

As an undead creature, he had lost his "courage", and even his vision had turned a bit black.

Thud, splash... Lu Mian, who was extremely fearful, heard the sound of a heartbeat, heard the movement of blood flowing.

That came from not far ahead, from some matter within this pale kingdom.

That produced a strange resonance with Lu Mian.

Vaguely, Lu Mian heard a shrill cry:

"Child!

"My child!"

Who is your child? And who are you? Lu Mian subconsciously generated these two thoughts.

That shrill cry continued:

"My child, where are you?

The voice paused for a moment, then rose a little:

"Omebella, where are you?"
