Light Fortress-Chapter 1411 - 180: The Netherworld King’s Second Angel Envoy (Part 2)
This way, when advancing to the fourth rank, [Iron Disciple] will not possess self-awareness, and the limit of the master’s ability will not be as high.
Either raise your spiritual power to the point where you can easily suppress [Iron Disciple].
This is indeed too difficult.
In the past hundred years, among the many masters of [Iron Eater], only the Rust Bone General from North Continent has perfectly achieved this feat!
Therefore... his [Iron Disciple] developed an extremely powerful self-awareness at the fourth rank!
The second one is Shen Li!
And this choice also signifies the difficulty after advancing to the fourth rank... [Iron Disciple] has awakened its self-awareness; how should the ability master tame and suppress it?
It can be said that this is a massive leap in the abilities of [Iron Eater].
But if not handled well, it could also be the beginning of self-destruction.
...
...
After [Iron Disciple] dissipated, Shen Li did not wake up immediately; he was still in a state of slumber.
"Gluttonization" brings a significant boost in strength.
At the same time, it consumes a huge amount of spiritual power.
And a very important point is... when [Iron Disciple] previously occupied his body, it withstood a spiritual attack from Zhuang Su, which Shen Li himself resisted with his Spirit Sea. He needs time to digest it.
Gu Shen gathered countless flames in his palm, spreading the Pure Land Domain, forming a perfect Immaculate "ball-shaped barrier" in mid-air... At this moment, it’s actually a great opportunity.
For this mission southward, Gu Shen deliberately brought along Little Iron Man.
Of course, this wasn’t because the mission required it; Shen Li’s strength before departure was only at the ninth level of the deep water area.
This mission is highly difficult, and considering it from the "mission completion" perspective, bringing a fourth rank would actually be better.
The most important reason—
is that he wants to find an opportunity to "convert" Shen Li.
Now is the best chance!
This is an Angel Envoy he had eyed for a long time, known each other for many years, and no one understands Little Iron Man’s character better than Gu Shen. This guy appears simple and honest on the surface, harmless to people and animals, but his heart is full of thorns.
Shen Li can fight desperately for him!
In Qingzhong Cemetery, Shen Li indeed did so...
Gu Shen never mistreats those who are willing to sacrifice for him. After the "Netherworld King" incident, Little Iron Man also attracted a lot of attention. Now, the outside world believes that Shen Li is the Angel Envoy chosen by the Netherworld King.
Then, why not let him truly become an Angel Envoy.
With the Pure Land Domain established and Qingzhong Ancient Text covered, the Extraordinary Aura here is completely concealed.
Inside the ball-shaped barrier.
Gu Shen stretched out his palm and placed it in front of Shen Li’s forehead.
A large amount of Chi Huo rolled and crashed into the Spirit Sea of Little Iron Man.
...
...
"Uh..."
Shen Li let out a muffled groan.
He seemed to have slept for a long time; his memory stayed at the moment when the beast tide was about to swallow him.
At this moment his head ached terribly, and a lot of scenes flooded in.
He saw what "himself" did after gluttonization, killing the giant elephant, slaughtering the Big Winged Sparrow herd... Ultimately targeting Mr. Zhuang from the neutral organization, who had treated him well.
Seeing this, Shen Li’s pupils contracted, realizing that his "loss of control" caused the situation to escalate.
He sent the command of "open eyes" deep into the Spirit Sea, wanting to regain control of his body and stop all this—
"Crack!"
"Crack!"
In the pitch-black world of memories, cracks appeared one after another... finally shattered.
He opened his eyes.
But he did not return to reality; instead, he entered a deeper Dream.
This place was full of pure white, with only a Black Shadow, sitting cross-legged, looking at him.
"Gu Shen..."
Shen Li stared blankly at the man in black clothes in front of him.
"Things outside are over." Gu Shen calmly spoke, "Mr. Zhuang is fine."
Shen Li clutched his chest and let out a long sigh of relief.
He remembered something else: "Adam, what about Adam?!"
"..."
Gu Shen was silent for a moment, then softly said, "When I arrived, there was no trace of Adam... But he should not be dead."
Previously, when Shen Li recalled the "gluttonization" scene, Gu Shen, who had invaded the Spirit Sea, also saw it.
He already knew the cause and effect of this incident.
"Not dead?"
"Hmm... My authority hasn’t sensed the presence of ’the deceased’.
If Adam were dead, being the Netherworld King, Gu Shen, who oversees the authority of life and death, could clearly sense the spirit of every deceased person. No matter how fierce the Big Winged Sparrow herd was, tearing Adam’s flesh apart, it couldn’t completely extinguish his soul.
"Is that so, wait... authority?"
Amidst the ups and downs, Shen Li took a deep breath and suddenly realized something wrong.
Authority!
These two words cannot be casually spoken—
This is something only the Divine Throne and its Angel Envoy can possess!
"Here..."
Gu Shen spoke softly, simultaneously smiling and extending his palm.
In his palm, there was a brilliant Chi Huo burning, with a thin strand of very dark fire mixed in, this eerie flame, contrasted by the Chi Huo, appeared extremely conspicuous.
A heart-stopping yet ominous aura emanated from the Black Fire.
"What is... this?"
Shen Li swallowed.
He wasn’t foolish; there were only two Divine Thrones in the East Continent, and the aura of this Black Fire clearly had nothing to do with "combat"!
The remaining possibility is "Netherworld King"!
"Netherworld Fire."
Gu Shen replied for him, calmly saying, "This is the authority of the ’Netherworld King’... capable of discerning ’life and death’ within a certain range."
