Chapter 146 White Cocoon

When Lu Lie pierced only a small hole in the white cocoon, the water pressure inside the cocoon and the air outside the cocoon became unbalanced, and instantly the milky white liquid burst out, tearing the small hole as big as a person.

With the momentum of water, Lu Lie was rushed out half of his person and hung obliquely on the broken white cocoon.

How long has it been since he gotten into the air of the outside world?

The world in the water and the world of air are completely different. The gap between the two made Lu Lie, who had been adapting to the world in the water for a long time, aching faintly in his lungs, almost bursting out as soon as he touched the air. He began to breathe impatiently. Every breath he breathed was clumsy and powerful, and the fresh air entered his lungs along his throat. Without the supply of milky white liquid like amniotic fluid, he would have to breathe by himself in the future.

His limbs were extremely delicate. For a long time, Lu Lie could only lean obliquely against the broken white cocoon and maintain that posture, like a paralyzed patient in bed.

Beyond the white cocoon, what caught his eye was a vast and broken palace. Countless hideous stone statues stood on both sides, like ancient gods, and their red eyes looked coldly at every corner of the palace. On every wall around, there was a pitch-shaped arched gate. Outside that gate, there were more and wider palaces.

Lying horizontally in the center of the palace was a monster that made Lu Lie's pupils shrink and fear from the bottom of his heart. It was a huge black meat ball that looked like a mountain-sized ball, smooth and delicate, and it reflected the purple-black oily appearance, unlike the skin of creatures on land. And around the ball that was extremely smooth and soft and bright, dozens of thick and strong long wrists extended, spreading around it carelessly. The mountain-like octopus, just its huge black wrist, occupied one third of the palace that was nearly the size of a football field. Lu Lie could even see clearly the sharp teeth contained in the huge suction cups above the long wrist.

In front of this strange beast in the world, Lu Lie was like an ant.

"Poor...weird!"

Lu Lie blurted out the word that he had not said in his memory for a long time in a trembling voice. He felt his lower body wet and wet, and he couldn't even tell whether it was because he had just come out of the milky white liquid, and he was really scared and pissed. In fact, it was not a shame to be scared and pissed at such a close distance - it was not like a product of this world, like a mixed species crawling out of the eighteen levels of hell. On the medieval sailing route, it was a sea monster that could swallow a fleet of ships; in the eyes of pagans to the west, it was the most intuitive incarnation of the evil god in this world; and for mortals like Lu Lie, it was the sum of all the fear, powerlessness, despair, resentment and other negative emotions in the world.

What I saw through the eyes of the green ants in the Thousand Realms was two completely different feelings from myself when I was intuitively facing this foreign object in the prehistoric world.

Everyone can not be afraid.

The only thing worth celebrating is that the giant beast is dead.

...

"Good morning."

The figure jumped off the top of the giant beast, holding the green, faint and transparent short sword in his hand. He passed through the long and crisscrossing wrists and walked to the white cocoon where Lu Lie was.

"Good morning? Damn."

Lu Lie's hands and feet are still not strong enough to support him to move. But at least, he could bow his head and spit heavily into the milky white overflow on the ground, and a series of curses of unknown significance came out of his mouth. Even Lu Lie himself didn't know whether he was scolding this damn giant octopus, the person in front of him, or even more illusory fate or something else.

Finally, Lu Lie's legs had enough strength to support him to stand up. He grabbed the rough white cocoon beside him, and he forced himself to step out of the egg-shaped white cocoon that he had been there for 72 days and walked out. He walked to the figure, and said a thousand words, and finally he only gathered one sentence and patted his shoulder hard: "What? Finally, he has come back to his soul?"

The man's eyes were clear and empty. He was in the hall of the Mysterious God Palace, which was as thick as hell, but he was still born like a spotless young god. If it weren't Li Yuan, who was it?

Li Yuan responded: "Well, thanks to your care, this month has passed and I am finally not dead."

Lu Lie was silent for a long time, raised his head and asked, "By the way, I'll ask you a question."

"Um."

"Your secret technique is called the Heaven and Earth Flip or something - just like when we were trapped in the tide of corpses and almost trapped to death, but in the end, what secret technique did you move the five of us instantly?"

"Stars turn, ninety-nine."

“…”

Lu Lie was silent for a long time, thinking. Finally, he just said softly.

...

Li Yuan supported Lu Lie, and the two walked side by side on this vast and boundless land. Along the way, Li Yuan also talked about what happened outside when Lu Lie was trapped in this white cocoon.

This huge Qiongqi, the monster born in the Yellow Springs World of the Misty City, is not any creature in human cognition at all.

It is a delusion, a despair, sadness, fear, tremor, and all kinds of negative emotions accumulated together by countless explorers trapped here, a huge fantasy. In this vain earth, anything can have that cheap life, including monsters composed of negative cognition of human beings.

It also has no fixed shape. In Lu Lie's eyes, it is a huge black octopus shape, but perhaps in Yang Wei's eyes, it is a cyan-skinned cyclopter, and in the eyes of the cannibal owl, it is a huge cow covered with pupils and lips. All kinds of things are endless.

The ultimate purpose of its existence here is to leave these adventurers who come and go and create more delusions. It is originally delusions, born from delusions, created from delusions, and returned to endless delusions.

Under Li Yuan's leadership, Lu Lie saw that the rows of huge human-shaped white cocoons displayed in the palace were like eggs to be hatched in insect nests, filling the remaining half of the palace.

In each white cocoon, there is a dreamy adventurer sleeping. Some of them were trapped here in ancient times. Today, hundreds or thousands of years have passed. Their white cocoons are no longer watery, and they are so broken that they are only a thin shell covering people.

Through the thin shell, Lu Lie saw that the body of the adventurer imprisoned in it still had a faint smile, as if he was immersed in their dream country until his death.
