Chapter 4064: With Hermons

Adapting to the feeling of breathing with his mouth, Xia De looked around. The light red liquid covering the ground was boundless, but the thick white mist severely blocked Xia De's vision.

He only saw that there seemed to be something in the depths of this flat space, and when Xia De walked over through the white mist, stepping on the liquid under his feet in the silence, what he saw was a simple stone bed placed in front of him.

It was called a stone bed, but there were baffles around it, so it also looked like a coffin, or a stone small boat.

"A bed in the delivery room, also a coffin, also a boat..."

The outsider felt that he vaguely understood something, and that bed was submerged by blood water to a height of one-fifth. Although it looked ancient in style, there were no patterns or decorations on the inner and outer surfaces.

And when Xia De bent down and placed his hand on the stone surface, "She" reminded him again:

【Outsider, enter it and close your eyes, and you can break free from the delivery room.】

There seemed to be very deep theological and philosophical meanings in this, and Xia De thought hard about it.

But at this time, the sticky footsteps of shoes stepping on liquid came from ahead. Xia De looked up and saw the Blood-Weeper Hermons pass through the white mist and walk straight toward here.

Before entering here, this person's body had completely dissolved, and even his soul had almost withered. But at this time, he reappeared in the appearance of wearing formal trousers and leather shoes, but with his upper body exposed.

Hermons' body was a real physical entity. Although perception would be suppressed in the space left behind by the ancient god, Xia De could feel that he had really recovered.

"We found the door to the delivery room more than two years ago. During this period, we paid countless sacrifices and efforts before we barely touched the skin of the characteristics of 【Creation Delivery Room】."

Hermons came to the other end of the coffin. Xia De noticed that he actually didn't open his mouth to speak; that voice appeared directly in this space.

"We have also explored what 【Creation Delivery Room】 is. This place definitely does not belong to the material world, nor is it any other plane or even sub-space outside the material world that has been recorded in history.

This place is more like a part of the world order, a place where all life has stayed before birth."

Xia De shook his head:

"As far as I know, such a place does not exist in mysticism."

"But it exists in theology. The 【Church of Creation】 once had records of this. If life is a train that never stops and moves forward, then this place might be called the platform of the starting station."

Hermons looked at Xia De:

"All the secrets related to life, related to creation, are hidden in the place where we are now. Severed limb regeneration, bloodline evolution, body shaping, flesh-and-blood withering, racial variation—all of this can find answers here.

I did indeed die in your siege, and I died completely. But now I can stand in front of you in a perfect appearance again. This is because I know the secret of the delivery room; I have been reborn again, and I am immortal."

Xia De shook his head:

"I don't believe it."

He didn't give a reason; he just simply didn't believe that there was anything in this world that was immortal. Moreover, even if Hermons really obtained a certain degree of immortality and the characteristic of repeated rebirth by digging into the secrets of this place, Xia De could fully find a chance to enter again through the door of 【House of Falsehoods】 and destroy the other party's reliance.

Hermons looked very calm, without any of the madness he had in the outside world:

"My immortality, the principle is actually very simple. I permanently merged my essence, a part of myself, with the 'Source of Fire,' and that Source of Fire was left by me in the delivery room.

The me in the outside world can still borrow the power of the Source of Fire. Once I die, even if my soul is extinguished, my life and my soul will rely on the power of the Source of Fire and the delivery room to sprout and be born again, because my root is here."

"So, the Source of Fire in the outside world is also not the main body? It sounds very good, but why are you telling me this?"

Xia De asked, and Hermons answered:

"I have no essential conflict with you. You want to save the world, and I can help you save the world. When I was reborn from this place for the first time, the moment I opened my eyes, I understood that I was a candidate for the Chosen One of Creation. Being born into this world a second time makes one understand many things.

God-Caller, you have once again proven your strength to me. You can support other candidates, or you can support me. If you are not satisfied with the style of the Blood Spirit School, I can even promise to make changes."

Xia De blinked:

"Perhaps you are crazy, but I am not crazy. I would rather the position of the Chosen One of Creation be vacant than choose to support you."

Xia De could tell from the battle just now that the degree of madness of this person was probably the same as the "Light-Chaser" of the 【Light-Seeking Association】 in Moon Bay. Xia De would not cooperate with a madman.

Hermons shook his head very calmly:

"Then it is a pity. You missed the candidate with the most potential in this battle of the Chosen One. I know you are very strong, God-Caller, and the red moon Strange Art you used just now is indeed extremely restraining to my power.

I have long thought about what other ways there are to counter you, and the answer is to seek help from ancient mythology."

Xia De was actually looking forward to it, thinking the other party had found the demon whose whereabouts were still unknown as a helper, but unfortunately Xia De guessed wrong.

"When pursuing 【Creation Delivery Room】 in the New Continent many years ago, we also discovered other very interesting clues. That is information related to the 'First Child,' and it is the oldest race and creation created by the Creator, and also the source of the 'Golden Bloodline' pursued by the Blood Spirit School."

He cut his palm in front of Xia De, and the silver blood with golden light flowed from his palm.

"We found part of the body tissue suspected to be the 'First Child,' but didn't know how to use it. Later, we found the delivery room, and obtained help from that fortune teller on Green Lake Island, and even obtained part of the research data from the 【Truth Society】.

After the preliminary verification by the 'Light-Chaser' who was killed by you, I finally determined that fusing those body tissues is the only feasible path for me to surpass the Thirteenth Tier."

The strange blood in his palm dripped into the blood water under the feet of the two, stirring up ripples:

"The body I used in the outside world before didn't have this characteristic. Only after this rebirth did I finally reach this step. You are the first person to see this body."

"But in my opinion, your power now is still a big gap compared to Laplace Howard and the Light-Chaser."

Xia De told the truth, and the Blood-Weeper shook his head again:

"Life needs evolution, and the me you see now is only at the initial stage."

He stretched his hand to the right, pulling out a long sword that seemed to be cast from flowing mercury from the void. Xia De could see that the sword was "Active Metal."

So Xia De also pulled out the scarlet Moonlight Greatsword from the void. The two looked at each other silently, and then the two swords collided in one place.

Ripples in the blood water rippled circle by circle, and the two feet constantly moved and shifted. The collision of the long sword and the long sword made the clanging sounds echo constantly in this silent place.

Neither of them used Strange Art; this was just a comparison of physical fitness. The two sword dances that were getting faster and faster were like two tornadoes. When speed and power reached the limit, the silver and red sword light seemed to appear in different positions at the same second.

*Crack! *

The two long swords broke at the same time. After losing the sword hilts, the two retreated to their original positions again, standing in front of and behind that stone bed that looked like a coffin. At this moment, Hermons' exposed upper body was covered with sword marks, but those injuries were not fatal.

And Xia De raised his hand to touch his neck, touching the wound where the skin and flesh had been cut open.

He already didn't remember the last time someone compared physical fitness with him and lost, what time it was.

"Indeed very strong."

Xia De admitted, and Hermons asked inquiringly:

"If I paid such a big price, but still couldn't win against you, that would be the strange thing. But I am very curious, what is your essence? There are no traces of human body modification on your body, yet you can display such physical fitness. Humans cannot reach this level.

If my modification technology is based on humans, trying to trace back to mythology to create a brand-new human, then what is your situation? God-Caller, in the life spectrum of the material world, what race are you?"

Xia De shook his head. After breathing a few times, as the red light spots around him poured into his body, the wound on his neck healed completely.

Seeing that Xia De had no intention of answering, Hermons didn't ask any more:

"I want to invite you to stay as a guest for a while. Are you interested in studying the secrets of flesh-and-blood creation and bloodline evolution with me in the Creator's delivery room?"

"Of course not interested."

"That's good. Then this time, let's see how you plan to escape."

The blood water under his feet spread upward suddenly. In just a second, it had risen to the position of Xia De's waist. That stone coffin was completely submerged. When Xia De wanted to touch it under the blood water, he found that it had disappeared completely.

He wanted to fly upward to prevent being submerged again, but under the blood water, it was as if countless hands grabbed his body and soul, so Xia De entered those light red liquids again.

It was just that this time, the feeling of staying in this liquid was not as comfortable as just now. In the liquid, Hermons approached Xia De more flexibly than a fish, and then launched an attack directly.

This place was the "Blood-Weeper's" home field. Xia De even felt that the other party could influence the flow of the liquid around him to a certain extent. Hermons probably obtained high-level permissions here, which made Xia De curious about how he managed to do it. ===== CHAPTER 4065 =====
