After her identity was exposed, she began to chase her husband to the crematorium

Lux had heard a similar statement in a book.

A scholar who studies ancient gods once wrote in a book that the world today lacks something compared with the ancient times, and it is this thing that ultimately determines the inability of the ancient gods to survive in today's world. The key factor.

273. Don’t think that writing about a stunning beauty is just a vase.

"Even if I find a way to leave here, today's world does not allow me to survive for much longer. In this case, it is better to just disappear. Maybe this is fate."

Lux also didn't expect that a being as powerful as Phoenix would talk about fate helplessly. She thought that since they were already gods, and they were ancient gods from ancient times, their power should theoretically be invincible. There is nothing in this world that can stump a being like it.

The illusory concept of "destiny" was helplessly spoken by a being of this level, and Lux ​​suddenly felt that Phoenix was much more approachable.

She could only sigh and said: "There is nothing you can do about this, and I can't help you."

"Well, it would be nice if I could stay with you for a little longer. It would be best if the family competition is over after I wake up. But even if the current difficulty is over, there are still many, many difficulties waiting for me in the future. To deal with it, I really miss the unrestrained feeling before."

Phoenix looked at the beautiful girl in front of him. This girl was different from other boys and girls it had seen in the past. In the past, everyone who wanted to inherit its power had great ambitions in their hearts. They wanted to use its power to change the situation. But it seemed that nothing could be changed in the end.

Phoenix couldn't help but become a little interested in the girl in front of him, so he said: "You can stay in this place as long as you want. Are you really not interested in inheriting my power?"

Instead, Lux asked: "Do you want to inherit your power to me?"

Phoenix shook his head and said: "With your physique, it is impossible to inherit my power through the traditional inheritance method. If you force it, it will have an impact on you."

"And my power is extremely easy to mutate. If you don't have a strong heart to become stronger, this power will mutate in your body."

"You've said that, so I think it's better to forget it. I'd better think of a way to resolve the family matters."

After saying that, she looked at Phoenix's somewhat weak body, and seemed to have a fever, and suddenly said: "But since you were once the largest bird in the world, how could a bird not fly? If I can this time If you can find a way to overcome the family's difficulties, I will definitely find a way to get you out of here."

"Why do you want me to leave? Aren't you guys guarding me for generations?" Phoenix asked doubtfully.

Lux smiled and said: "In the past, this was our family's mission, but now we are a business family, and the blood of the children in the family is not pure. I am already like this, and my next generation's blood is not pure. It will only become more impure and unable to inherit your power."

"In that case, why bother hanging you all the time? You've been here for so many years, it's time to leave."

"And you haven't disappeared until now. You still have power left in this world, which shows that today's world is not completely resistant to you. There must be a way for you to survive for a long time. I know a person who is very powerful. I believe he will definitely be able to help you."

For the first time, there was fascination in Phoenix's eyes.

"yes......"

"Well, it must be possible."

After that, the two of them stopped talking. Lux wanted to talk to it about the things around her, but she found that it was a bit boring to talk about her own things, and it was filled with a lot of youthful troubles, and maybe even more bitterness. , so she stopped talking.

In the following time, Lux fell asleep directly in the magical world created by Phoenix. This kind of sleep was like the sleep of the soul, which cultivated the body far better than the quality of ordinary sleep.

And the magic power that had been silent in her body seemed to have begun to work under the influence of this world, absorbing the rich spiritual power brought by the surroundings.

Phoenix, who was still in a daze, seemed to feel the magic power fluctuation in Lux's body, which was very weak for it, so he looked over curiously.

But at that glance, she saw a very weak golden light that seemed to be blooming in the source of magic power in Lux's body.

The moment he saw the light, Phoenix's eyes showed a strong interest in a human being for the first time.

"This is......"

She was not mistaken. Although the source of magic power in Lux's body was very weak, it was indeed shining with a golden light. It seemed that after the source of magic power in her body began to absorb the more essence of magic power in this world, this light The light became more conspicuous.

In this light, Phoenix felt the aura that seemed to come from the ancient times...

So after Lux woke up again, Phoenix once again took the initiative to talk to her.

"Why is there ancient aura in your body?"

"Ah? What is ancient breath?" Lux scratched her head.

Phoenix explained: "This is what I told you before, what is missing in the world today, the birth of gods requires gods, but in today's world, even the lowest gods almost no longer exist, let alone higher-level gods. The ancient gods."

"And the ancient breath is a key to unlocking the gods. If the breath in your body can fully grow, you can transform into a brand new god, and it will also be the most complete ancient god."

Lux frowned. These terms sounded obscure, but they seemed to be very powerful. Anyway, the names were all domineering.

"If you say yes, then yes, but are you really reading that right? I am a person with no talent for cultivation. In the past, my family tried their best for my cultivation, but the magic power in my body is like a pool of stagnant water. No matter how useful things are, they are of no use to me."

Phoenix immediately asked Lacus to explain the situation, so Lacus secretly told all the grievances she had suffered in the field of magic cultivation over the years.

Phoenix is ​​indeed an ancient god. Even though so many generations have passed, its knowledge is still able to connect to the past and the present. It almost immediately determined the problem in Lux's body.

"This is the ancient breath at work. Although I don't know who planted this breath in your body, what is certain is that your magic power is affected by this breath, so it will continue to grow slowly. The ancient breath In order to consolidate its own growth, it will naturally absorb magic power from your usual cultivation resources, which leads to the fact that the power actually allocated to you in the end becomes very thin."

"The situation in you is almost the same as the situation of the Son of God that exists in the human world today."

The explanation given by Fenghuang also explained the almost identical situation between Jingchen and Ke'er.

It was precisely because Jingchen knew that ordinary magician training could not effectively improve the magic levels of himself and Ke'er that he thought of using essence to upgrade. Of course, this was because he and Ke'er were both gods. Relationship.

But Lux is not a god, but someone planted the seed of a god in her body at some point.

The strength of this seed is many, many times more powerful than the Thor bloodline in Kerr's body. Once the seed in Lax's body is sufficiently nourished and blooms, an ancient god will be born.

The moment the god is born, Lux will become the last, and perhaps the only, ancient god in the world.

It's just that the stunned girl in front of her obviously doesn't know what's going on with her body.

274.The only way to become a god

　In fact, Phoenix did not say something clearly, but it was indeed the first time for it to see such ancient god seeds in the humans who came into contact with it. Even the Emperor of Heaven who first came into contact with them did not have such an ancient aura in his body. Seeing something like this in Lux is simply a miracle for it, and even for this world.

There are very few coincidences in this world, everything is determined by fate.

Perhaps it was fate that allowed Lux ​​to finally come to this secret room, and it was also because of the ancient aura in her body that Crystal was summoned and she was able to meet the Phoenix.

It can also be seen from the previous words that Phoenix, who has stayed here for many years, believes in fate and once felt that his fate was determined.

But who can say for sure about fate? Just when she thought she might disappear, fate arranged another girl like this for her.

Phoenix's heart rekindled the desire to live that it had not experienced in the past many years. It also had something it wanted to do. If it belonged to this girl, maybe it could really be helped.

It then said: "Now there is a way that can help both me and you. Do you want to know about it?"

Lux nodded and said, "Tell me about it."

Phoenix said: "The two of us merged, and I placed all my power on you. From then on, I became all your power, and you became my incarnation, continuing to survive in this world on my behalf."

"In your current human world, this form should be called a Jinchuuriki."

"But the benefits brought by complete integration are stronger than those of a simple Jinchuriki. If the ancient aura in your body completely grows in the future, then you can completely absorb my power and become an ancient god."

Lux watched Phoenix boasting in front of her. This feeling was like listening to her grandfather in the conference room before thinking about the grand blueprint for the Scato family's future. It always gave Lux a rather unreal feeling. Because she never thought that such a grand ambition would have anything to do with her.

If you are in a situation without strength for a long time, your mentality will change over time.

Not everyone in this world wants to fight back no matter what after being oppressed. Some people feel that this is it, and they won't make any achievements in the future, so they can just live a mediocre life.

It's obvious that Lux is such a person.

But fate likes to play tricks on her, like letting her take over the family affairs when she is unprepared.

For example, telling her without any preparation or expectation that she can now merge with the Phoenix, completely merge with the Phoenix, and two lives become one eternal life, which is far better than inheriting the power of the Phoenix. Much, much stronger.

This would not feel real to anyone.

But Lacus didn't say anything. She just looked at Phoenix softly, looking at her already obviously weak body, and she just said: "Can this save you?"

Phoenix said: "Not only can I save me, but I can also save you. During the period when you truly become an ancient god, part of my power can be used by you forever."

"This fusion will definitely change your physical condition completely."

This kind of thing seems to be a win-win situation, but Lux, who is managing family affairs these days, also knows that everything has pros and cons, and the real situation is often not as nice as it sounds.

But this time, she still chose the risky direction.

"I understand, then just do as you say."

"If this matter is beneficial to both of us, then why should I refuse?"

Phoenix didn't say anything anymore, but slowly walked up to Lux, opened his hands, and hugged her.

Lux also subconsciously stretched out her hand to hug the person in front of her.

It's like embracing your past self.

In the strange space, magical things happened every minute and every second.

......

The fusion lasted for several days, and without Lux noticing, the Hel Cult also began their brutal actions.

A group of people took the lead in entering the Skato family's mansion from the shadows. Earlier, someone had tampered with the Skato family's magic detection device, so that even people climbing over the wall and sneaking in at night were not noticed. arrive.

The staff on duty was recently owed wages and was sitting in the duty room with a look of displeasure on his face. His work attitude was no longer positive at all.

The patrolmen didn't bother to patrol, so the two security guards started chatting directly in the duty room, and both of them were full of complaints.

Suddenly, the magic light in the duty room suddenly went out, and one of the younger doormen said "tsk" impatiently.

"The Gouba family is so poor now that they can't even provide the magic power for the lamp?"

Lao Deng on the side smiled and said, "Perhaps the source of magic power is cut off. Go and see what's going on."

"Row."

The young security guard walked out impatiently and closed the door of the duty room with his backhand.

puff!

Not long after the young security guard walked out, the sound of sharp blades chopping flesh could be heard outside.

Lao Deng was smoking inside and didn't hear anything going on outside.

Soon, the door to the duty room was opened, but the lights still didn't come back on.

"What's wrong? Is the confession really broken?" The door was opened, and Lao Deng thought it was one of his own who had returned, so he asked without raising his head.

gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Soon, something as heavy as a lead ball suddenly rolled in from outside the door and rolled to Lao Deng's feet.

"what?"

Lao Deng was stunned for a moment, then bent down and picked up the ball-like thing at his feet.

However, when he picked up the thing and put it in front of him to examine it, a face twisted with fear appeared particularly clear in the darkness.

The old man was dumbfounded and wanted to shout when he opened his mouth.

puff!

But soon, a figure came behind him and stabbed him in the neck.

In the dark duty room, there was the sound of two things like lead balls falling to the ground feebly...

Soon, the door to the duty room was closed from the outside.

Two figures walked out of the duty room. These two figures walked upright into the light. When the light came on on the two of them, it was not difficult to find that they were the two security guards who were killed.

But their eyes were quite sharp, and it was obvious that they were not themselves.

The reason why the Hel Cult was the second-ranked church among the top ten cults was precisely because their people could disguise themselves as that person after killing them and continue to live on behalf of that person.

During the Akatsuki Dynasty, there was a generation of kings who directly started massacres in the city in order to completely eliminate this cult. They would rather kill a thousand by mistake than give up one.

Although the main force of the Hel Cult was eliminated, it was still unable to be completely eliminated and they were still allowed to escape.

Compared with the cult that Jingchen and the others encountered before, it is obvious that the Hel Cult is even more evil.

It's just that their evil sect is nothing compared to what happened in Saint Zorans.

Under the sky of the Magic City, there is always a darkness that is difficult to eradicate.

275.Destruction of the Skatu family

Under the charge of these two believers, other believers who had been waiting outside rushed directly into the Scato family's mansion. The first thing they hit was the family's security system.
