Xiao Lan said goodbye to the sixties, and continued on the black path that Luo opened up.

This time the road ahead seems to be extraordinarily long.

He walked in it for a long time without seeing any changes around him.

The range of sight is a blur of chaos, and there always seems to be some sound around, but if you listen carefully, there is nothing.

Xiao Lan still proceeded step by step calmly, and did not feel impatient or flustered about it.

The guidance Luo gave him must have some purpose.

Finally, the surrounding environment changed again.

It was surrounded by hard rocks, with hot lava flowing from time to time.

The temperature of the magma made the air dry and hot, and the heat wave distorted the air.

Xiao Lan glanced at the direction from which she came, and saw that there was only a rigid rock wall, and there was no exit at all.

It's like he just appeared here out of nowhere.

The rolling heat came from the front, and it seemed that there was something even hotter ahead.

This scene always feels familiar.

Xiao Lan had a guess in his heart, and he walked forward.

After walking a few steps, heard the movement of the battle. The movement was so powerful that it seemed like some ancient beast was fighting.

Through the narrow rock corridor, what appeared in front of Xiao Lan was the lava pool he had seen before.

The fiery magma was tumbling, as if it were boiling, and there was an astonishing heat.

A huge lava monster is roaring in it, and the sound is indescribable, not like any sound that has been heard before.

It is shaped like a giant nine-headed snake, but its body is made of lava. The nine heads are different, but they are all equally terrifying.

One head let out an angry roar, and the other head violently attacked a certain direction.

Xiao Lan took a closer look, and there was someone with his back turned to him.

Although he couldn't see the man's face, from his figure, the gray trench coat on his body, and the position he was in, he already knew who it was—

Xiao Chengyan.

Xiao Chengyan was much more embarrassed than he had seen in the illusion before, and the windbreaker on his body was covered with burning marks.

Not only the windbreaker, but even his exposed arm was scalded.

His leg also appeared to be injured, and he was a little sluggish in his movements.

The giant lava snake roared again, opened its mouth wide enough to swallow a building, and bit Xiao Chengyan fiercely.

Facing the oncoming attack, Xiao Chengyan reacted extremely quickly and prepared to dodge, but the injured leg made his dodge a little slower.

Seeing the lava monster's mouth getting closer and closer, it almost swallowed him.

Xiao Lan quickly activated his skills and instantly appeared behind Xiao Chengyan.

Then he grabbed Xiao Chengyan and disappeared in place.

"boom"

The lava snake bit on the rock wall, biting the hard rock wall out of a big pit.

The heat it brought also started to melt around the wall.

Lose its purpose and make it angry.

Nine huge and ferocious snake heads frantically destroyed the surrounding rock walls, causing the entire area to shake.

A little away from the giant snake, Xiao Lan found a temporarily hidden place and appeared, and put Xiao Chengyan down.

"Thank you—" Xiao Chengyan raised his head as he spoke, and his voice got stuck when he saw the person who saved him.

"Xiao Lan?" Xiao Chengyan recognized his son at a glance.

He looked at Xiao Lan carefully, but his brows furrowed: "You are not Xiao Lan, or the current Xiao Lan, right?"

Xiao Lan: "..."

He hasn't said anything yet, how does his father know everything?

Xiao Chengyan listened carefully to the movement outside, but the giant snake was still roaring angrily.

However, due to the duty of guardianship, it will not leave the lava pool at all.

After confirming that it was temporarily safe, he turned his attention back to his son.

Xiao Chengyan took out the props to treat his injuries: "Don't be surprised, I went to see you once before I decided to act. At that time, you didn't enter the game at all, and it was impossible to level up in such a short period of time. But you are really messed up. It's miserable, I can't even sleep in a better bed, and I've been disrespected all day long."

Xiao Chengyan looked at his son with a bit of disgust in his eyes.

Xiao Lan: "...I don't even think about who the initiator is?"

Why is he so poor, isn't it a gift from Dad's Spartan love!

Xiao Chengyan thought for a while: "You will come in, that means we have failed? Am I dead?"

Xiao Lan didn't know how to answer for a while: "..."

Xiao Chengyan asked again: "What about the people who have no mercy? Are they gone?"

Xiao Lan: "..."

He felt a bit of a headache, Xiao Chengyan was too sensitive, and he seemed to have no secrets in front of him.

Xiao Chengyan laughed at himself twice: "Hey, that's it, there's nothing to say, your father, do I look like a fool? From the moment we decided to act, we were already prepared to bear the price of failure. After all, fighting against that kind of unknown existence, no one knows what cards he has."

Xiao Chengyan asked, "I left you a lot of media before the decisive battle. If I die, these media will be connected to the consciousness I left behind. You shouldn't have found it before, right?"

Xiao Lan said: "I found it, and you told me a lot of news at that time."

Xiao Chengyan nodded in relief: "Well, not stupid. I guess you have gone down the same path as me, right?"

Xiao Lan nodded.

Xiao Chengyan looked at his son's expression: "Let me guess, the disobedient is not dead, right? He must have contributed to your ability to come here."

Xiao Lan: "Yes..."

Well, he doesn't have to say anything, Xiao Chengyan can automatically read the content from his face.

Even if this guy doesn't do tyrants, he will surely become a respected Xiao Daxian if he goes to fortune-telling under the overpass.

To a certain extent, it can be regarded as ... saving communication costs.

Xiao Chengyan looked at his son who had grown up a lot, and did not choose to reminisce: "Would you like to join forces to get rid of this guy and destroy the core of the master."

Xiao Lan was a little puzzled: "Since we are on different timelines, can the current injury affect the future master?"

Xiao Chengyan said: "Since he is a higher-dimensional creature, I guess he will also be hurt in more dimensions, but whether it will work or not will only be known if he does it."

He reached out and squeezed Xiao Lan's arm: "Son, you don't seem to be an ordinary person anymore? Are you awake? I can feel that you are closer to the rulers and rebels."

Xiao Lan was a little surprised: "You can see that too?"

Xiao Chengyan smiled helplessly: "The disobedient said, I'm already on the verge of awakening, and it only takes a while to awaken. It's a pity... The master's plan came too soon."

"And I don't want to be a contract player for the disobedient. After all, I'm not my race. I always worry that he will hide something the same as the master, so I can't completely trust him." Xiao Chengyan said, "Maybe it's my fault. He's actually a good collaborator, and it looks like he really wants to help us."

Xiao Lan looked at the scarred father in front of him.

Even if there is no contract, he only needs to wait for a while to break through the limitations of human beings and become a life in a higher dimension.

However, this period of time is enough to cover the reality of the world, and a large number of people will be dragged into it.

So he gave up, he chose the latter between his own stronger power and the lives of countless people, and chose to face the Lord with a human body.

And, smashed to pieces.

Maybe he is really bad as a father, but for more people, Xiao Chengyan is a protective wall.

He sabotaged the Overmind's plans, giving humanity a new round of respite.

Xiao Chengyan stood up and moved for a while, feeling that his actions were no longer a serious problem: "We have no time, let's go. You have awakened, and perhaps the only person who can destroy the core of dominance is you."

Xiao Lan didn't speak, but a pitch-black blade appeared in his hand instantly, everything was self-evident.

The two came out of their hiding places together and walked towards the lava pool where the giant snake was.

Spotting the intruder, the lava serpent roared angrily again.

A head suddenly pounced.

Xiao Chengyan stepped forward and stood in front, his hands were empty, but he drew a mysterious arc in the air.

Following his movements, a golden dragon suddenly appeared in the empty mid-air.

The giant dragon looks like it is covered in golden armor. Since it appeared, it has faced the attacking nine-headed giant snake without fear, and fought with it in an instant.

At this moment, it seemed as if a legendary battle of phantom beasts had been staged in midair.

Xiao Lan looked at the fighting phantom beasts and sighed why his father's skills were so gorgeous.

Also relying on the skills of imagination, Xiao Chengyan can summon divine beasts, and his... output depends entirely on his hard-working hands, and he doesn't even have any special effects.

The golden dragon's blocking made the giant snake feel angry, and more heads rushed over and slammed into the golden dragon.

Facing the beating of the snake head, Jinlong showed no weakness and still fought tenaciously.

It kept biting on the hot body of the lava snake, and the bitten part turned into lava that kept dripping back to the lava pool below.

But Jinlong's injuries are also increasing.

During the battle, the gigantic snake head finally found an opportunity and bit the head of the golden dragon from the back while he was being pinned down.

The golden dragon let out a painful sound, but still fought unyieldingly.

Seeing this, Xiao Lan rushed over, followed the golden dragon's back all the way up, and swung a knife at the hideous snake's head.

The pitch-black blade slashed, and the snake's head was directly cut off, instantly turning into magma and falling into the lava below.

The power of this knife is terrifying.

Xiao Chengyan was shocked by such strength, and couldn't help but ask, "What kind of feed did you eat to grow up? Such great strength."

Xiao Lan: "Do you have any opinion on Mom's cooking skills when you say that?"

Xiao Chengyan: "..."

He was silent for a second, but decided to support his wife's cooking skills: "It looks like...a balanced nutrition..."

Even if my wife makes feed, it is the best feed in the world.

Look how strong this bear child is.

At this moment, the remaining head of the lava giant snake who lost a head suddenly raised its head and roared.

With this roar, the remaining eight heads turned to the body that had lost its head.

They opened their big mouths and bit into the headless body one by one. Soon, the body was eaten up by them.

After eating, the eight snake heads became significantly larger.

Xiao Lan frowned, this is "I eat myself?" And it feels full of nutrition.

Why did this process make him feel so familiar.

The other snakeheads stared at Xiao Lan and launched a violent attack on him. One of the snakeheads suddenly spewed fire from his mouth.

Xiao Lan had to dodge to avoid it, activate his skills, and repeatedly teleport to avoid the giant snake's attack.

The giant snake is not only aggressive, it is also hot.

Being in the high temperature made Xiao Lan feel like a piece of meat in the oven, almost sizzling with oil.

I really envy the old man who is a remote summoner...

Under the joint attack of Xiao Lan and Xiao Chengyan, the remaining heads of the giant snake became less and less.

Some were bitten off by the Golden Dragon, and some were cut off by Xiao Lan.

But every time one is missing, the remaining head will eat the body that has lost the head as before, and then the remaining parts will become stronger collectively.

Xiao Lan blocked the big mouth that was biting towards her with a knife.

He could clearly feel the strength under his hand getting stronger and stronger.

At the same time, the body of the big snake is no longer something that he can easily cut off with a single knife.

Not only that, the temperature of the giant snake is getting higher and higher.

During the continuous battle, Xiao Lan also had a lot of burning scars on his body, many of which were left when he brushed past the giant snake.

According to his current physical strength, the temperature of these giant snakes can be imagined to be able to hurt him.

Suddenly, the four snake heads opened their big mouths at Xiao Lan, and the four big mouths almost blocked the world in front of him.

Xiao Lan could already see the flames that were about to erupt from their throats.

If it is sprayed right, I am afraid that he will become burnt on the outside and tender on the inside, with a crispy chicken flavor.

Xiao Lan hurriedly teleported away from the area of ​​the giant snake.

A fiery flame erupted, and the place where Xiao Lan stood was instantly melted, and a large amount of rock turned into magma and fell into the lava pool.

Xiao Lan wiped the sweat from his forehead: "This guy is getting stronger and stronger."

Xiao Chengyan breathed a sigh of relief, and it was not an easy task to keep maintaining Jinlong's combat power: "I probably know how I died."

Xiao Lan: "Can you say something practical?"

Xiao Chengyan smiled: "For example?"

Xiao Lan said, "Can you build an ice maker or something to cool it down?"

Xiao Chengyan cast a look at the fool.

He is an illusionist, not Doraemon. This kind of technology product is obviously not suitable for him?

He seemed to want to ridicule his stupid son, but he thought about the personal attack. Due to blood relationship, the attack might affect him.

If you say he is a fool, you are not a big fool; if you say he is a bastard, you are not an old bastard.

Family love is indeed an unbreakable bond in the world.

Xiao Chengyan decided to let it go.

Still, it's okay to cool down.

Xiao Chengyan controlled the golden dragon to continue fighting, while drawing another pattern in the air with one hand.

Following his movements, a snow demon with a white body appeared.

The snow demon waved his hands, and a blizzard instantly erupted in the fiery space.

The blizzard headed in the direction of the lava pool, solidifying the magma along the road.

More wind and snow pounced on the giant snake.

Because the giant snakes were made of lava, the coldness made them feel extremely uncomfortable. All four heads spewed flames towards the snow, melting all the snow.

The two onlookers couldn't help but smile.

It seems that it hates cold things very much.

Xiao Lan clenched the knife again and switched the ability from teleportation to absolute zero.

In an instant, an icy cold air rose from Xiao Lan's body, and a layer of ice formed on the ground he stepped on.

Due to the effect of the skill, Xiao Lan can no longer approach the giant snake through teleportation. He turned his head to Xiao Chengyan and said, "Send me there."

Xiao Chengyan understood in an instant, the snow demon moved again, and a snowstorm rose from Xiao Lan's feet, leading people to the direction of the snake's head like a wave.

The pitch-black blade struck with an icy, piercing chill.

The snake head that was aimed at immediately felt the danger. It opened its mouth and tried to use the flames to force it back.

But the blade came faster.

The jet-black blade had landed on its neck.

Under the extremely low temperature, the part that was in contact with the blade instantly cooled down and became extremely brittle, and then shattered under Xiao Lan's strength.

The snake head goes to one of them.

The remaining three snakeheads tried to devour the remaining body.

The golden dragon's attack arrived again, this time mixed with a lot of ice and snow.

Suddenly, another head fell.

And this time, regardless of Xiao Lan or Xiao Chengyan, they would freeze the part of their body that lost their head, preventing them from being able to devour them quickly.

The remaining two snakeheads let out an angry growl.

Just when Xiao Lan thought they were continuing to attack, they devoured each other in front of the two of them.

Soon, one of them, along with the snake's head to the body, was devoured by the other.

The only remaining snake head also swelled up quickly, turning into a ferocious behemoth.

The huge snake head roared again, and this time, Xiao Lan, whose voice was harsh, felt like she was going deaf.

The flaming eyes of the giant snake stared at Xiao Lan with malicious intent to devour him.

The giant snake suddenly opened its mouth and attacked Xiao Lan.

Xiao Lan did not choose to retreat.

He clenched the knife tightly and said without looking back, "Come on."

In the face of his son's behavior that looked like he was courting death, Xiao Chengyan did not hesitate, but instead cooperated with his words, a gust of snow carried him, and charged towards the giant snake at an incredible speed.

Flames spewed out of the snake's mouth.

The blazing heat is coming.

A wall of ice and snow blocked Xiao Lan in front of him, constantly being melted and replenished, like an indestructible barrier.

The flames and the snow wall disappear at the same time.

At this moment, Xiao Lan also came to the giant snake.

With a cold and cold blade, it pierced from the top of the giant snake's head and cut all the way down.

Where the blade passed, the body composed of lava gradually cooled, turned into dark rock, and shattered under the force of the cutting.

The huge body of the giant snake shattered.

This time, it has nothing to devour.

After dealing with the giant snake, Xiao Lan landed steadily on the ground.

Watching the snake's body gradually sink into the lava, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Chengyan also walked to the lava pool, he waved his hand, and the golden dragon and the snow demon disappeared instantly.

In its place was a tiny lizard, but unlike the common lizard, this lizard was entirely made of lava.

Under Xiao Chengyan's control, the lizard climbed into the lava.

After a while, the unscathed lizard came out with a white thing in its mouth.

Xiao Lan felt a familiar and disgusting aura about this thing: "Is this the core of domination?"

Xiao Chengyan asked the lizard to hand over the core of the master to Xiao Lan: "Come here."

Xiao Lan reached out and took it.

The core of the dominion looks like a white ring that is as warm as jade. If you only look at the appearance, it is like a treasure circulating in a museum.

But think about who the Lord is and what he does.

The two onlookers could not show any love and pity for this core.

It's so pretty, but it's still smashed.

Although Xiao Chengyan mentioned it before, the master used Luo's core to injure him.

But Xiao Lan himself did not master this advanced processing technology. The safest way is to destroy it and let the master lose an important part.

Xiao Lan clenched the core tightly.

Also replace the ability with the one that was used before - Disintegrate.

After the last analysis of the order maintainer Bai Guang, Xiao Lan had some understanding of the power trajectory of the master, and this time he also found a way to decompose the core.

It's just that the core is much more solid than the white light.

Xiao Lan kept burning the poverty value to increase the strength of the skill, and finally shook it.

Seeing that the white core gradually disappeared in his hands, Xiao Lan couldn't help raising the corner of his mouth.

He turned to look at Xiao Chengyan: "We succeeded—"

Xiao Lan's face was filled with uncontrollable astonishment.

Why did they defeat the giant lava snake, and Xiao Chengyan didn't die, but he was disappearing?

why?

Xiao Chengyan looked at his hand that gradually turned into a spot of light, but there was no shock on his face: "My time is up."

Xiao Lan still found it difficult to accept: "But we have obviously changed the course of things!"

Xiao Chengyan smiled: "This is probably the last time I died, maybe my time is destined to stop at this moment."

Xiao Lan: "Why...?"

Xiao Chengyan: "Who will understand the mystery of time, I'm probably just an ordinary three-dimensional creature that can only live on one timeline."

Xiao Chengyan didn't spend time on sadness, he said to his son: "You didn't look like I expected, but more like Wen Qi, she taught you very well, maybe she is the only one between us. That's right. I'll leave the rest to you, it's time for me to see her."

Xiao Chengyan sat on the big rock beside the lava pool, smiled and said to Xiao Lan, "Goodbye, son."

Facing the parting scene again, Xiao Lan tried her best to squeeze out a smile and waved goodbye to him: "Goodbye, Dad."

The voice fell, and Xiao Chengyan's figure completely disappeared.

The author has something to say:

A private setting: Ordinary people can only live in one timeline. After awakening, they become creatures of higher dimensions and can travel through time (such as Xiao Lan), but they will also be harmed on different timelines (such as Dominator) .

small theater:

Xiao Chengyan: Son, it's a pity that Dad can't see you looking for someone.

Xiao Lan: You have already seen it.

Xiao Chengyan: Who? Isn't that the saucy boy Cheng Wenyi?

Xiao Lan: It's a rebel.

Xiao Chengyan: ...help me up, I think I can last two more episodes...
