GBP Chapter 137 Gao Tianyuan
Chapter 137 Gao Tianyuan
When everyone opened their eyes again and could see their surroundings clearly, all that remained between heaven and earth was a blood-red hue.
The surrounding seawater, rocks, and land were all a shocking crimson, as if this place had witnessed a war more terrible than purgatory, leaving behind so much bloodshed. And at this moment, a blood-red moon hung high in the void.
This crimson moon hung in the sky like a giant mountain, its size being more than ten times larger than the moon that Ling Yunxiao had once witnessed in the fishing village of Ningchang County!
From afar, it resembles a giant red disc, large enough to blot out the entire sky, firmly embedded atop the distant, undulating mountains. Its blood-red light pours down without reservation, like a thick red veil gently covering this vast expanse of heaven and earth, bathing every inch of land and every leaf in this eerie and mysterious red glow.
This was the first time Lin Qiye had ever seen a blood moon. His eyes widened as he gazed intently at the crimson moon hanging high in the sky, time seemingly frozen in that moment. He didn't know how much time had passed before he finally recovered from his extreme astonishment, but his heart remained turbulent and unsettled. With a face full of shock, he instinctively turned to look at Merlin beside him.
Ling Yunxiao was also filled with horror, his gaze fixed on the blood moon. He recalled the arrow Hou Yi had shot not long ago; its power was earth-shattering. Yet even so, it hadn't completely severed the close connection between Cthulhu on the moon and Earth?
Looking at Merlin again, his expression was equally grave, his brows furrowed, and his eyes gleaming with worry and unease.
"Lord Merlin...where...is this place?"
"Didn't I just say that once you pass through the Gate of Guidance, this place is naturally Takamagahara?"
"..."
The crowd looked around in silence and confusion. The blood-red ocean, the shattered land, the towering, eerily silent buildings in the distance, and the chilling red moon in the sky—it didn't seem like a place where gods lived at all; it looked more like hell.
"Welcome to my divine kingdom..."
Just as everyone was about to disembark from the carriage, a hoarse female voice rang out. The earth trembled, and a crimson light suddenly erupted from the blood-red ocean. An enormous figure slowly emerged from the seabed, its countless tentacles slapping against the surface of the sea, creating towering waves. At the same time, the huge, eerie monster appeared before everyone.
Before anyone could react, Ling Yunxiao smiled at the familiar figure.
"A friend of mine has been looking for you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ling Yunxiao picked up his pen without hesitation and wrote a line of words.
"Old friends return on the Bridge of Helplessness"
Then, Ling Yunxiao stepped off the carriage first. Before his feet even touched the ground, the blood-red spider lilies had already bloomed from the carriage into the entire area within everyone's sight. The blood-red flowers swayed slowly on this blood-red land, appearing particularly sinister and terrifying.
"Ghost King Xing Tian has seen the Book of Humans in charge."
"Qianchengchuan, the Underworld General Fish Gill, greets the Master of Human Books. Master, I came here by myself, drawn by the smell of fish, please don't mind."
As soon as everyone stepped off the carriage with Ling Yunxiao, they saw two figures slowly emerge from the sea of red spider lilies.
The tall and imposing Xing Tian, carrying an axe, bowed slightly to Ling Yunxiao before turning his gaze to the crimson sea before him.
Beside him, the copper bell in Fish Gills' hand rang with ancient sounds, but he shook his head repeatedly as he looked at the blood-red seawater in front of him.
"Who is this thing trying to emulate? Does it have the Yuan Tu, Avici Hell, the Twelve Grades of Karmic Fire Red Lotus, or the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag? It's trying to play the Blood Sea game like that, isn't it afraid of drowning itself? Doesn't it have any idea what kind of seafood it is?"
"This is the Great Old One from the Cthulhu Mythos, the Deep One Hydra."
As soon as Ling Yunxiao finished speaking, the expressions of the people around him changed. It seemed that the name Cthulhu could not be mentioned easily, and those who heard the name were prone to being corrupted.
After casually writing down a "dispel" incantation, Ling Yunxiao looked indifferently at the still rolling waves and the Hydra staring intently at Xing Tian.
"You will die here, buried with Dagon!"
Hydra raised her hand and pointed at Xing Tian, who merely frowned slightly and casually pointed into the distance.
"With you? That'll take some effort. With it? Are you dreaming?"
As Xing Tian finished speaking, everyone saw a strange, humanoid monster in the distance, under the blood-red moon, wearing a blood-stained divine robe, with a red magatama hanging on its chest, holding the Kusanagi sword, sitting atop the towering mountain of gods' corpses...
"Susanoo!"
Wu Xiangnan recognized the monster at a glance. His eyes flashed with murderous hatred, but tears of blood had already dripped from the corners of his eyes as he stared directly at the corrupted Susanoo. Fortunately, he was immortal and Ling Yunxiao's Exorcism Technique was protecting everyone, so nothing more serious happened.
Seemingly sensing that he was being slighted, the monster that Susanoo had transformed into slowly rose and walked towards Xing Tian.
Xing Tian shook his head and sighed, seemingly unwilling to deal with these small fry, but he charged out with his Ghost Head Shield and Xing Tian Axe in hand.
"Fish gills, chop that seafood up, take it ashore and dry it into dried fish..."
The voice of Xing Tian could be faintly heard in the wind. Upon hearing this, the fish gills, which were already eager to try, jumped directly into the sea of blood.
"General Yin, rest assured, I will show no mercy."
Then, the fish gills, clearly disgusted, floated to the surface of the sea from the bloody depths.
"You've done a pretty good job of imitating the lifeless, chaotic, and filthy seawater!"
As soon as Yu Sai finished speaking, a small drumstick appeared in his hand. He raised his arm high and struck the bronze bell in his other hand with the drumstick.
"when……"
An ancient, heavy bronze sound rang out, and Yang Jian and Merlin simultaneously unleashed their divine power. Golden light and magic circles resonated with each other, and Nyx even focused all his Dark Night power on Lin Qiye, Ling Yunxiao, and Wu Xiangnan.
"I'm fine, don't be so nervous."
Ling Yunxiao smiled slightly. He didn't believe that the fish gills couldn't even control such a small thing as the direction of the attack.
"So, you called all these people over just to watch you put on a show?"
