edge of pure land.

Chapter 381 Secret Infiltration
A shrill alarm sounded in the safe haven. It was a cloudless day just now, but in the blink of an eye, dark clouds gathered and the dim twilight turned into darkness. Accompanied by lightning and thunder, strong winds swept across the desert, and the water on the Nile River surged.

Storm is coming.

The golden sacred tree standing in the safe haven was ignited with a roar. A sharp knife mark pierced through the ancient and thick trunk, and the hideous cracks were filled with lightning debris.

The celestial beings in charge of maintaining the Tree of Life in the underground laboratory stood in front of the operating table in a daze. The out-of-control dashboard showed the rapidly declining solar energy. They stood up without hesitation to remedy the situation. Some even crawled to repair the matrix, while others hurriedly picked up the walkie-talkie to call for help.

So far, humans have not figured out how the corruption plague spreads and how to observe it. This safe haven protected by the Sun God Matrix is ​​the only safe place.

Once the Sun God Matrix collapses, the celestial beings will be at risk of infection.

After all, no one knows whether the corruption disease has spread here.

"Why did the Sun God Matrix suddenly collapse?"

The patrol teams in the safe haven all raised their heads to look at the sky. They noticed the scars on the Tree of Life, but they didn't know what had caused the damage.

The Tianren organization has its own methods for predicting the weather.

This method is ancient but very accurate and almost never goes wrong.

Lower Egypt is already dry and rainy, especially this rare thunderstorm, which is most likely caused by the evolvers. It is very suspicious at first glance.

The problem is, no one saw the attack.

Even if the patrols could not observe it, the elders should not have no reaction.

Therefore, from the perspective of the celestial beings, the Tree of Life was damaged without any warning, and it looked like some hidden danger had occurred inside, leading to a systemic collapse.

When the alarm sounded, the celestial beings outside were urgently recalled. After all, this meant that the portable alchemical matrix on them could fail at any time, leading to infection with the disease.

The gate of the safe haven opened again. Lu Buer, wearing a white robe, mixed in the convoy. He rubbed his brows tiredly, trying hard to suppress the dizziness and blurred vision, but a smile appeared on his lips.

This is the effect he wants, which is to give someone a taste of their own medicine.

The secret of the Divine Ashes Technique.

Between the third and fourth lightning strikes was his full-strength attack.

Although he couldn't use the profound meaning of the Divine Ashes Technique anytime and anywhere, he could still charge up energy to launch an attack. This kind of attack that could not be perceived could not be blocked, and it would not reveal that it was him who did it. Even if he was suspected, no one would have evidence.

With his current strength, he has no chance of winning against those senior veterans. Even if he uses all his means, it will only be a scratch, so he has never thought about a head-on conflict.

As long as it has an impact on the Tree of Life, it will be fine.

"Follow the plan."

Lu Bu Er ordered in a low voice.

Ai Yue and Yuan Qing lowered their hat brims, turned around and left together carrying the body bag.

Lu Fuji returned to his residence under the escort of the gods.

The stand-in who was pretending to be him just left through the back door, and in the blazing fireplace was the burnt facial prosthesis. He was indeed the bad woman's confidant and was reliable.

After returning to the attic, Lu Buer first went to the bathroom to take a shower. After changing into clean clothes, he sat cross-legged on the bamboo mat on the balcony, placed Yu Lei across his legs, and wiped him with a tissue.

It was as if he had been wiping the soul blade here all the time and had never left.

The darkness was overwhelming.

It was raining heavily in the sky.

Lu Buer's red hair hung down in front of his forehead, and the heavy rain was reflected in his deep pupils. The dense raindrops were faintly mixed with traces of black, which was the dark matter that was decomposed to the extreme.

"After the dark matter body absorbed the blood of concealment, its presence has been reduced to the lowest level. And because it is a dark matter body, there is no need to worry about the side effects of the blood of concealment. This seems to be a bug. Logically, when my dark matter body activates concealment to the greatest extent, I will forget that I have a dark matter body. But the dark matter body is also controlled by my consciousness. As a dark matter body, I will not forget myself, so the original me will not forget Him either."

He murmured, "Because my consciousness is shared."

This is a very strange phenomenon.

Lu Buer's true body is constantly forgetting the existence of the dark matter.

And Lu Buer's dark matter body was constantly reminding him of the existence of dark matter.

But after all, he didn't forget.

A group of celestial beings rushed into the courtyard. Elder Nasser, who had just returned from the military base, was the first to come. His cold eyes locked onto the young man in the attic and he asked in a cold voice, "Mr. Lu, what are you doing? Why are you activating the Soul Blade?"

At this moment, a young man lowered his head and whispered in his ear, "According to the intelligence, it is basically certain that Lu Buer has been to that military base before, and he rushed back very quickly. But Elder Helmut meant that we should not expose this for the time being. If this person is really completely confined here, it will be difficult for us to take action."

Elder Nasser's body trembled slightly.

"I'm already preparing to advance to the sixth realm."

Lu Bu Er stopped wiping his soul blade, raised his head and said expressionlessly: "Evolvers will complete the upgrade of their soul blades when they reach the sixth realm. No one told me that I can't play with swords here, right?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes and brows of the celestial beings suddenly raised.

This guy is actually preparing to be promoted to the sixth realm.

You have to know that it has only been half a year since Lu Buer broke out of his cocoon.

In half a year, he jumped six levels without any bottleneck in the process.

This is too fast even for a monarch-level talent.

The young man had an even more complicated look. You know, the practice of an evolver is actually something that takes time to settle. After all, it is necessary to rely on squeezing cells to accumulate life energy. Even if there is sufficient marrow fluid from the sacred tree, one cannot rush it, otherwise one will pay a heavy price.

At the very least, you will fail to advance, and at worst, you will become a disabled person on the spot.

What's more, it is very difficult for an evolver to completely assimilate life energy and numerology. Even with the assistance of endless chips, he still needs his own understanding of the properties. Therefore, various religions have been born all over the world. In the final analysis, they are all for better practice.

But Lu Buer's advancement process seemed to have completely ignored these steps.

"No one is restricting your practice, but there is something wrong with the Tree of Life!"

Elder Nasser said in a deep voice.

"What does the problem with the Tree of Life have to do with me? If I activate the Soul Blade, the Tree of Life will collapse. Then shouldn't the Elders commit suicide collectively?"

Lu Bu Er said calmly: "After all, I am only at the fifth level."

These words really touched the heart of Elder Nasser. Although the sudden thunderstorm was indeed caused by the evil God Ashes magic imp in front of them, they did not believe that this little guy could destroy the Tree of Life again under their noses.

If a level 5 imp can actually do this, it proves that they are useless.

The last time, Medanzo paved the way.

This time, without Medanzo, he could not do this. Having said that, the elders would still be skeptical of him.

This sentence was just to test his reaction.

"The only things in this world that can have an impact on the Tree of Life are the Divine Ashes Technique, or Himself. Perhaps during the last process of repairing the Tree of Life, some changes occurred that even I didn't notice, leading to the current situation." Lu Buer said lightly.

In fact, he was already very tired at this time. The side effects of using the Secret of Divine Ashes were much stronger than he had imagined. It was a kind of exhaustion that made his whole body and mind feel hollowed out.

But he still had to pretend to be calm.

Don't arouse suspicion.

"Indeed, we can't doubt anyone because of coincidence."

The young man began to speak.

Lu Fuji was slightly startled.

Because this young man's voice is a bit like mine.

As soon as Elder Nasr frowned, he heard a voice coming from behind.

"We just received instructions from Elder Helmut. We need to keep an eye on this young man at all times. This matter is very strange. Although theoretically he cannot do this, it is better to be safe than sorry. Moreover, we still need him to repair the Tree of Life."

The young man said, "Keep an eye on him, he won't be able to stir up any trouble."

Elder Nasser suddenly realized what was going on. He was silent for a second before sighing, "It seems we were too abrupt. In that case, please ask Mr. Lu to go again. Now that Mr. Medanzo is not here, you are the only one who can repair the Apollo Matrix."

Just what I wanted.

Lu Bu Er shrugged and said, "Let's go."

Omega's believers can also temporarily gain the power of the Divine Ashes with the help of drugs. Logically, this group of people can also try to repair the Tree of Life, but considering that they have been trying to cover up their existence, it is understandable that they do not stand up at this time.

As for the celestial beings before him, he was not sure whether they were believers of Omega.

Lu Buer just felt that this group of people were doubting him.

No one except the Omega believers could guess that he had done this.

Of course, Xia Zhu is an exception.

This woman should have returned to her safe haven by now.

It's really interesting, just like playing Werewolf. If it wasn't a real life-and-death fight, it would be hard to say whether the person in front of you is an Omega believer.

Fortunately, this does not affect Lu Buer’s next plan.

Lu Buer stood up with his wooden sword. He caught a glimpse of a young man in the Celestial Beings team. After a brief hesitation, he suddenly asked curiously, "What's your name?"

The young man suddenly raised his head, revealing a face that seemed familiar to him, and replied calmly, "Hello, my name is Lu Xinzhi."

The flash of lightning illuminated the familiar face.

Lu Buer took a deep look at the young man.

"interesting."

Deep underground in the safe haven, Elder Helmut leaned on his cane and walked down the spiral staircase step by step into the deep underground. He said calmly: "Urgently recall the celestial beings outside and do their best to repair the damaged Sun God Matrix. The confinement trial will proceed as usual, and prepare all the seeds."

The spiral staircases here turned out to be thick tree roots. The dry bark had burning golden lines on it, and the faint light it emitted illuminated the bottomless darkness.

It seems to lead to the deepest part of the underworld.

Few people know that there is such a place in the Tianren organization. Even the laboratory used to observe the Tree of Life is close to the surface of the tree roots.

But in fact there is space underground in that laboratory.

In the Senate, this place is called a burial ground.

The burial ground, as the name suggests, is the place where the previous safe haven sank.

In the Age of Gods, the celestial beings also retained the habit of building safe havens. They usually would not expose the most important information and equipment to the secular world to prevent the leakage of secrets.

This is the site of the Age of Gods. It used to be an oversized bronze aircraft, but now it has been transformed into a huge underground space, which is also covered by an independent sun god matrix and requires a very special method to enter.

After passing through the roots of the sacred tree and coming underground, we came to the surface of the ancient bronze aircraft. This place has been transformed into a circular altar. The lower-level elders in white robes were already standing here holding torches. They had just finished the prelude to the ceremony.

The projection screen reflected the young people in the darkness.

These are the seeds cultivated by the Tianren Organization.

A seed that is qualified for the confinement trial.

The confinement trial of the Celestial Organization was originally intended to allow the chosen ones who possessed the order factor and immortal bodies to be qualified to obtain the Holy Word, but since no such people had appeared for many years, the original intention was gradually changed and it became a kind of selection.

The Elders hope to select the chosen one through this trial.

Now that Chen Jing has appeared, they still haven't given up on this selection.

After all, in the eyes of most elders, Chen Jing is not the best candidate for successor.

Therefore, the confinement trial was nominally held for Chen Jing, but in each round there were basically many seeds coming to practice with him. It didn’t matter whether they could pass the test, the key point was the awakening qualifications.

On the projection screen, the celestial beings participating in the trial were selecting equipment in the dark armory. Chen Jing, with her long crimson hair, was also arming herself in the corner. One could see black knives tied to her fair, round thighs. Her knees were like pieces of crystal jade, her calves were covered with over-the-knee socks, and she was wearing a pair of Mary Jane leather shoes, which were shiny black.

It looks good, but in the eyes of the elders, it's just a sign of not having plastic surgery.

It's like a high school graduation, everyone wears gowns but you wear Lolita.

Chen Jing has always been such a unique woman.

No one noticed that there was a short girl in the armory. She only prepared a serrated dagger for herself, carried a seemingly inconspicuous suitcase, smiled casually, and wore steel caps on her teeth.

Elder Helmut watched the scene with satisfaction.

But at this moment, he suddenly turned his head.

There was nothing in the darkness.

"Is it an illusion?"

He frowned slightly.

In the cracks between the dry tree roots, thick dark matter spread like a shadow.
