Chapter 43 .1 (2/2)

Yu Fuling said before that Shen Yuan had used “that ability” too many times in this instance, which meant that this ability must also place a certain burden on Shen Yuan. But now, Shen Yuan had to use this ability again and again.

Although Xiao Tangqiu didn’t know what effect excessive use of “that ability” had on Shen Yuan, he couldn’t help worrying about him.

At the same time, Shen Yuan stepped into the range of the serpent. Facing this close intruder, the giant serpent naturally launched an attack without hesitation. The huge serpent head suddenly descended upon him.

As Shen Yuan’s black tattoos became clearer and clearer, the huge serpent head made up of serpents disappeared when it touched his body.

The disappearance of the serpents didn’t stop the serpent from attacking. They quickly formed a new serpent head and launched another brazen attack. However, the result this time was still the same as before. When the head hit Shen Yuan, it broke apart instantly.

Shen Yuan’s black tattoo became more and more visible. The mysterious tattoo still seemed to be slowly swirling, as if the serpent, Ouroboros, would really come to life the next moment. It was strange and sinister.

Xiao Tangqiu instantly remembered the serpent of the world in his dream. Although Lippinobert also called forth many tail-biting serpents, the small black serpents were obviously far from the giant serpent in his dream. Even the giant serpent composed of the black serpents at this time was only the size of the church.

The tattoo of Ouroboros on Shen Yuan’s body was more like the serpent of the world in his dream. It was strange but beautiful, evil and powerful. It could encircle the entire world with its body alone. It was the master of the world and the most powerful, terrifying existence in the world.

As the tattoo of Ouroboros on Shen Yuan emerged completely from his cheek to his neck, there were black mysterious tattoos all over. Those tattoos made him look strange and evil, as if he was a tribal god of war from ancient times.

In front of him, the giant serpent composed of serpents collapsed, completely melting away, leaving no trace of existence. They didn’t originally belong to this world – these were creatures from a different world. Maybe they returned to their original world, maybe they disappeared completely, gone from this world, erasing all the possibility of their existence.

Lippinobert was completely angered. He looked at Shen Yuan coldly, his eyes darkened to the extreme, appearing cold and horrifying. “How dare you… I’m going to kill you…”

Shen Yuan looked at Lippinobert calmly and said lightly. “You intend to use the souls of those people to sacrifice and call Lily Marlene back to earth, but the souls of ordinary human beings can’t be used as a sacrifice at all. Only the souls of demons can be used, so you used that book to turn those people into lower demons… Unfortunately, now that these demons have been destroyed by me, all your efforts have been wasted and you can no longer call Lily Marlene’s dead soul.”

Lippinobert looked at Shen Yuan bitterly with resentful eyes. “Even if you destroyed all of my previous efforts… I will bring Lily Marlene back to the world…”

On the sidelines, Xiao Tangqiu listened to all this in shock. It turned out that the serpents weren’t the alien creatures he had imagined, but low-level demons formed from those killed by Lippinobert. Because they couldn’t use human souls but needed demonic souls, Lippinobert had killed so many people and turned them into puppets, including many other players from before… Lippinobert did so much just to revive Lily Marlene, but just now Shen Yuan seemed to have destroyed everything.

Xiao Tangqiu’s heart felt very uneasy. Although he didn’t know what the final objective of this instance was, according to his experience from the last instance, he knew that they had to prevent Lippinobert from resurrecting Lily Marlene… But if that was only it, Shen Yuan should’ve successfully stopped him by now and their mission should’ve ended ahead of schedule.

However, that wasn’t the case, which meant that the matter was far from over.

Sure enough, in the next moment, something strange happened.

Lippinobert suddenly took out a small transparent glass bottle from his pocket. The glass bottle was filled with black liquid and there seemed to be something soaked in it.

But because it was too small and too far from where he was, Xiao Tangqiu couldn’t clearly see what was inside. But he knew that it was obviously not a good thing, because he was keenly aware of the changes in Shen Yuan and the others. Not only did Duan Hongzhen, Yu Fuling and Sai Lulu turn pale at the sight of it, even Shen Yuan’s eyes grew so dark and deep they seemed to have sunk down.

Lippinobert pulled the cork out of the glass bottle and looked at Shen Yuan resentfully. “I won’t let anyone stop me. Even if I have to turn myself into a demon and sacrifice my own soul, I will resurrect Lily Marlene no matter what!”

Yu Fuling couldn’t help blurting out, “That’s a demon’s heart! Are you crazy?!”

“No one can stop me!” Lippinobert smiled coldly, raised his head and gulped down the black liquid in the glass bottle.

A demon’s heart?

Although Xiao Tangqiu didn’t know what the demon’s heart was, he knew that it couldn’t be anything good. After all, the name sounded evil and mysterious.

Demons…

Were there really demons in this world?
