Mo 'er felt like she was about to faint. Only now did she truly understand what the power of a Holy Disciple was. These people in front of her were only about ten years older than her, and some might not even be ten years older than her. But each one of them was more monstrous than the last. This Lang Tianyi fellow had a devil energy even higher than Ji Dong's. Heavens, he was a ninety-second level Paragon, a Nine Crowns Paragon, the Heavenly Dipper of the Earth Element. But such a Paragon actually called Ji Dong' Young Master '.
A gentle yellow light enveloped everyone's bodies, and Miasma's Staff of the Goddess of Earth also emitted a faint gray light. Yellow and gray intertwined, and everyone's bodies slowly sank into the ground without warning. In the blink of an eye, their surroundings darkened, and they were completely submerged underground.
Lang Tianyi's eyes had completely turned the same yellow as the Pearl of Thick Earth. After entering underground, with the Pearl of Thick Earth, he did not need Ji Dong's Soul Detection at all. The situation in the surrounding soil was clearly displayed in his perception, and he continued to lead everyone deeper. Miasma's function was to use the Staff of the Goddess of Earth to soften the soil and rocks around them, helping Lang Tianyi to bring everyone deeper underground.
Mo 'er patted her chest lightly. She no longer hated her father at all. In just a few days, she felt that everything she had experienced was more magical than the previous ten years combined. Previously, she had flown into the sky, and now she was diving into the ground. It was really full of magical colors. She was now very excited to see what these Heavenly Dry Disciples would do after entering the Dark Temple. Her hatred for Ji Dong had also disappeared without a trace.
The Pearl of Thick Earth continued to emit that rich yellow light, giving people a sense of peace and stability. Ji Dong sighed inwardly in admiration. No wonder it was ranked first among the three divine artifacts of the Foolishly Rich Merchant Guild. This Pearl of Thick Earth really did have its own uniqueness. With this divine artifact, Lang Tianyi could now hold his own. It should be known that after Ajin, he was the second Heavenly Stem Holy Disciple to reach the level of Nine Crowns. He had caught up from behind and even surpassed Fury, who had gone to Dark Secrets' side.
Other than Mo 'er, the Heavenly Dry Disciples' soul cultivation was not low. Everyone could feel their bodies sinking rapidly, and it was sinking in a straight line. Along the way, if they encountered any hard rocks, how could they resist the tiny Staff of the Goddess of Earth and Lang Tianyi's Pearl of Thick Earth? In the process of sinking, they maintained a stable speed. No one felt any pressure. The power of the divine artifact could be seen from this. When they were about to reach the target depth of 200 meters, the sinking speed slowed down and finally stopped.
Ji Dong discovered that the range of his soul power's detection was greatly limited underground. After all, there was no air in the soil and rocks. However, he could finally release his soul power to investigate quietly. Of course, he could feel the existence of a large amount of soil. As he continued to move upwards, he discovered that the soil was still hard. When he was about 100 meters from the surface, there was a large amount of granite blocking him. Clearly, this layer of granite was the bottom of the Darkness Divine Temple's moat. This was clearly a man-made river. Looking down from the sky, the area of the Darkness Divine Temple was at least three times the size of Zhongyuan City. How much manpower and resources would be needed to build such a moat with the granite at the bottom? Clearly, this was not done by the current generation of Dark Tianji. From this, one could see the selfish nature of the previous generations of Dark Tianji. The situation of the Darkness Five Elements Continent facing now was definitely not caused by the current generation of Dark Tianji. The so-called faith was simply a joke. If it wasn't for the powerful backing of his subordinates, Dark Tianji would have been killed countless times by the crazy civilians of the Darkness Continent.
After reaching this conclusion, Ji Dong's judgment of the current situation changed. He could now be sure that what the Radiant Five Elements Continent had to face was not the entire Darkness Five Elements Continent, but Dark Tianji and his lackeys. As long as they could defeat Dark Tianji once and kill him, the so-called Holy War would not happen at all. As long as the Darkness Five Elements Continent did not have Dark Tianji, the so-called Holy War would not exist at all, and they would not have any follow-up forces.
However, at the thought of this, Ji Dong realized another problem. If they could really defeat Dark Tianji and his army, what would happen next? Would the Radiant Five Elements Continent give up such a good opportunity? The answer was bound to be no. Perhaps, the five empires of the Radiant Continent would immediately launch an anti-invasion war. With the current situation of the Darkness Continent, it was impossible for them to have the power to stop it. Although the Radiant Continent could not be like Dark Tianji, as long as there was a war, people would die, and the ones who suffered were the civilians. This was also not what Ji Dong wanted to see.
Thinking of this, Ji Dong couldn't help but admire the first generation of Light and Dark Tianji Saints. It was them who built the Holy Evil Island. With the barrier of the Holy Evil Island, the two continents were separated, and each enjoyed its own culture. Unfortunately, it was difficult to repeat the grand occasion of the past. Now, the dominant position of the Darkness Five Elements Continent was no longer the Dark Saints, but the peak Saint level Dark Tianji! Everything was still too early to say. If one day, he could really reach the God level, then he must launch the ultimate killing technique, just like the Flaming Bar, to continue to block the two continents.
Ji Dong understood that the reason why the Red Lotus Heavenly Fire could only last for five years was that the Flaming Bar had to preserve its strength to face the pursuit of the Divine Realm at that time. Even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance of survival, she had to try. Otherwise, if she applied all her divine power to the Red Lotus Heavenly Fire and designed a formation to work on it, then the Red Lotus Heavenly Fire would certainly be able to exist for a long time. Perhaps, this was also the way that the Flaming Bar wanted me to live. If the two continents were permanently separated, then I would follow her without any hesitation. Flaming Bar, ah, Flaming Bar, you really put in a lot of effort!
While Ji Dong was letting his imagination run wild, Lang Tianyi was not fooling around. After a short pause, he judged the situation in front of them through the Pearl of Thick Earth. Then, he immediately activated the artifact again and led everyone forward from sinking to sinking.
Ji Dong came back to his senses, looked at Tianji beside him, and nodded slowly. Tianji naturally understood what he meant. He held hands with Ji Dong, and Ji Dong's other hand naturally held Chen Sixuan's. With the combined strength of the three and their souls combined, their soul power was raised to the peak of the Saint level. With such a powerful soul power as a cover, as long as Dark Tianji was not in this Dark Temple, they would be able to conceal their aura and not be discovered by anyone.
It was almost impossible to pass through the wide moat by digging a passage 100 meters underground. Putting aside the fact that there were so many soldiers patrolling outside the Dark Temple, even if they could sneak in and dig, they would not be able to escape the soul detection of the Dark Temple.
As soon as they entered the area under the moat, Ji Dong and Tianji discovered that there were strong soul waves even in the soil. They were at least at the Saint level. Although they did not know where the detection power of the Saint level came from, they were more aware of the power of this Dark Temple. After all, it had been accumulated for more than a thousand years. It was simply an extremely solid fortress.
Of course, the Saint-ranked probing ability was greatly weakened after going deep underground. Moreover, the Saint-ranked probing ability was only at the Initial Saint-ranked level. It was enough for Ji Dong to protect everyone by himself, not to mention that the three of them were releasing Peak Saint-ranked Soul Powers at the same time!
It was necessary to be cautious because the purpose of this trip was not to destroy, but to find the two water element artifacts so that they could reach the level of complete artifacts just by killing Holy Disciples. In this case, they had to be careful. Otherwise, once the Dark Demon Army inside was alarmed, their collection of the two artifacts would be even more secretive, and the security would be even tighter. The most troublesome thing was that no one could be sure that the dark Tianji didn't have a way to teleport back here directly. If that happened, they might not have the chance to get their hands on the two divine weapons. How could they contend against the Dark Stem Saints then? Therefore, for the sake of the two divine weapons, they had to be cautious. Before they found the divine weapons, they had to try their best not to be discovered by the other party.
Fortunately, Tianji had the Eye of Heavenly Secrets, and was able to determine the location of the artifacts. Otherwise, they would not be able to find the artifacts at all. They did not know what method Dark Tianji had used to completely isolate the aura of the two water element artifacts. There was not a single trace of mana or soul waves. Even with the peak of the Saint level soul power of the three of them, Ji Dong could not sense the existence of the two artifacts. It seemed that even if Light Tianji's combat power was not good enough, he would still be one of the most important parts in dealing with Dark Tianji.
Finally, they passed through the wide river that protected the Darkness Shrine. Ji Dong instantly increased the output of his soul detection, especially the detection of the surrounding soil. Together with Lang Tianyi's Pearl of Thick Earth, they formed a double layer of insurance.
Lang Tianyi took a deep breath, and the sun crown above his head became exceptionally bright. He used the power of the Pearl of Thick Earth to slowly send everyone up. The Heavenly Stem Saints also became more focused. With Ji Dong and the other two's combined soul detection, they could be said to know everything about the outside world like the back of their hands.
When the Pearl of Thick Earth sent everyone to a position about ten meters above the ground, Ji Dong signaled for Lang Tianyi to stop temporarily. Before they reached the ground, he wanted to carry out one last careful investigation.
At this moment, the position that Lang Tianyi had brought everyone up to was a dark corner that Ji Dong had found with the help of his fused peak Saint-level soul power. It was in the shadow of a tall black building. Through the coverage of his soul power, the Darkness Shrine had completely appeared in everyone's mind. Even Mo 'er was no exception.
In order to prevent herself from crying out in shock, Mo 'er took out a piece of cloth from somewhere and took the initiative to tie her mouth. These Heavenly Stem Saints had already shown her too many miraculous things. She did not know what new things she would see next. If she was not careful, it would be embarrassing.
All of a sudden, the Darkness Shrine looked like an incomparably huge city. Even the castles of the three strongest races in the core world could not compare to the scale of this place. Within the moat of the Darkness Shrine, there was a layer of black city walls that were 30 meters tall and 30 meters thick. Every 200 meters, there was a watchtower that was 100 meters tall. As long as the weather was good enough, one could easily see dozens of miles away.
The watchtowers with pointed roofs looked like the fangs of the Darkness Shrine. They were daunting. Inside the city walls, there were tall buildings. However, all the buildings, including the stone bricks on the ground, were completely black. This Darkness Shrine was really full of darkness.
Many of the tall buildings were more than 50 meters tall. There was a huge eye-catching emblem on each building, which probably represented the purpose of these buildings. Compared to the map of the Darkness Shrine in Ji Dong's hands, the terrain here was much more complicated. Clearly, the martyrs who had rebelled against the Heavenly Secret Alliance had not been able to send out a panoramic view of the Darkness Shrine. Among these tall black buildings were wide streets. Each street was more than 30 meters wide, enough to accommodate 10 carriages abreast without feeling crowded. Even if a large number of troops were mobilized here, they would still be able to move freely.
How was this a shrine? It was clearly a fortress. The fortresses built on the Holy Evil Island by the five nations of the Radiant Five Elements Continent were much cruder than this.
Those black buildings attracted Ji Dong's attention. These buildings, including the black stone bricks used on the ground, were made of an extremely tough stone. Through Soul Probe, he could feel that this stone was at least five times harder than granite. With so many rare materials used to build such a city, it was no wonder that the Dark Five Elements Continent had been ruined to such a state. Just casting or cutting such hard stone alone would have required a lot of time and manpower.
Looking in the direction of the center of the Darkness Shrine from afar, there was a huge Darkness Castle. It was also the most magnificent building in the entire Darkness Shrine.
This castle was built on a hill that was about 200 meters tall. The hill was surrounded by water, and there was even a moat for the inner city.
