405: No time to say goodbye!

That ancient voice, as if Transmigrating through time, echoed in Leng Xuan and Si Xiaonan's minds.

Their hearts were filled with shock, not because of the unnameable, bizarre light sphere, but because they had seen those gray worms before.

Not only had they seen them, but those worms also existed within their bodies.

Si Xiaonan reacted quickly, immediately checking her own body.

Sure enough, the wounds that had rotted due to Cthulhu's power had actually healed.

However, the healed areas glowed with a colorful light.

Those lights were almost identical to those shimmering on the giant light sphere.

A startling guess flashed through their minds: could An Qingyu be related to this giant light sphere?

What exactly is Yog-Sothoth?

Leng Xuan suddenly remembered what An Qingyu had said to him before he fainted.

“You will soon know my identity.”

“Could it be that An Qingyu came from this giant light sphere?” Leng Xuan murmured.

Si Xiaonan frowned, “Leng Xuan, do you still feel that the power within your body is a bit strange? And, that light sphere seems to be getting bigger and bigger.”

Now was not the time to study this giant light sphere; Si Xiaonan had already sensed that something was wrong.

When she saw the rot on her body heal, Si Xiaonan subconsciously thought that the Mental Pollution from Loki had been removed.

But when she saw those wounds turn into colorful specks of light, she realized something was wrong.

That Cthulhu power still existed, it was just transformed by An Qingyu's gray worms.

Just like ice and steam, they are essentially different forms of water.

That strange Cthulhu power, under An Qingyu's modification, transformed into another form.

After Si Xiaonan's reminder, Leng Xuan also felt the abnormality of his Mental Energy.

The ancient voice still echoed in their minds, but it had lost some of its madness.

Suddenly, the colorful specks of light on their bodies began to spread, and before they could react, those specks began to expand.

Soon, a huge colorful bubble enveloped both of them.

A hint of terror appeared in the eyes of Si Xiaonan and Leng Xuan; they called out to each other loudly, but heard no sound.

Two huge bubbles slowly floated towards the giant light sphere in front.

Despair was revealed in the eyes of Si Xiaonan and Leng Xuan; they could not offer any resistance, and could only watch helplessly as they were about to merge into that giant light sphere…

…

In the Kunlun Mountains, An Qingyu slowly exhaled as he looked at Andre, who had already been dismembered.

“So this is what the power of the Law of the Earth is like.”

At this moment, Andre had been completely analyzed by him; An Qingyu's eyes had turned gray, and his gaze was extremely cold, as if he had lost human emotions.

He looked in the direction of the Kunlun Void entrance, and a hint of complex emotion seemed to appear in his cold eyes.

“It seems there’s no chance to say goodbye.”

An Qingyu glanced at Andre's corpse, then manipulated Mystic Silk to hoist him up.

With a slight Exertion, he began to leap through the mountains, and soon, An Qingyu arrived before the bronze Formation Plate.

An Qingyu restrained his Qi; he threw Andre's corpse before the bronze Formation Plate, then took out a white crystal from his in my arms and inserted it into Andre's corpse.

Soon, a wisp of white smoke began to rise from Andre's body.

The smoke was unusually thick, and the strong winds in the mountains could not disperse it.

The range of the white mist grew larger and larger, completely covering the entrance of the Kunlun Void.

From a distance, it looked like a white cloud covering the mountain hollow.

“It seems that the analyzed [Wu Yuan Sha] works well; I hope it can buy you some time.”

It turned out that the white crystal was the product of An Qingyu analyzing Si Xiaonan's Forbidden Territory.

Using Andre's corpse as raw material, An Qingyu created a large area of “No Fate Gauze” to cover the entrance of the Kunlun Void, preventing other ill-intentioned individuals from affecting Lin Qi Ye's plan.

An Qingyu took one last look here, then turned and left.

Recalling the bits and pieces of time with the Reserve Squad, An Qingyu felt a mix of emotions.

Long ago, An Qingyu had Awakened his memory.

For a long time, he had been having the same dream.

In his dream, he transformed into a giant light sphere, aimlessly wandering in the boundless Universe.

During his wandering, he continuously absorbed knowledge from various civilizations, as if he existed solely for the pursuit of knowledge.

Gradually, one day, he finally remembered his identity.

He was one of the three Cthulhu Pillar Gods, an Incarnation of Yog-Sothoth, Key of the Gate; he was a part of it.

Back then, Cthulhu and the gods invaded the Fifth Universe and engaged in a fierce battle with the Fifth Universe consciousness, and later, under the leadership of Yelande, they successfully Sealed the Cthulhu gods.

In this process, Key of the Gate's body was shattered; although most of it was Sealed by Yelande on the Moon, a part of it was left behind on Earth.

Most of them were Sealed in the Antarctic, but one of the fragments escaped.

That fragment was An Qingyu, and his Forbidden Territory, The Only Correct Solution, also originated from Yog-Sothoth's desire for knowledge.

An Qingyu was extremely afraid after learning the truth; he had been trying his Exertion to hide his identity.

He was afraid that if he was exposed, he would turn against his comrades with whom he had spent day and night.

Although An Qingyu knew that this day would come sooner or later, he did not expect it to come so soon.

Yaochi Wonderland is extremely sensitive to Cthulhu's aura, which is why Si Xiaonan's attacks completely failed after approaching the bronze Formation Plate.

This was the real reason An Qingyu did not enter the Kunlun Void; his so-called 'guarding the door' was just a reason An Qingyu made up.

Even though he did indeed sense the presence of Andre, Si Xiaonan, and others.

In addition, he sensed the aura of Black Goat from Si Xiaonan and Leng Xuan's bodies, and after much deliberation, he decided to help.

Although they were all Cthulhu, there was still a difference in the auras among the three Pillar Gods; Black Goat's aura was one of endless decay and reproduction, and if Si Xiaonan and Leng Xuan were contaminated by its aura for a long time, they would eventually become mere reproductive machines.

Rather than being contaminated by Black Goat, it was better to be contaminated by his own aura.

At least, he could still protect these two people.

However, doing so carried risks; by transforming the Cthulhu aura, he also exposed his existence to Black Goat.

After knowing that Key of the Gate had revived, Black Goat would definitely come looking for him, and since Black Goat and he had both revived, was Chaos, Nyarlathotep, also hidden on Earth?

After all, this fellow is best at lurking and disguise.
