She noticed a mischievous girl beside Carolyn. Carolyn had always done things with propriety. She had even brought this girl along when reporting work. Obviously, she wanted to let this girl show her face in front of her. Although the Great Spirit Race was not as prosperous as the sun in the sky on Earth, they were still a rather powerful race in the Star Alliance. This was also the reason why Carolyn had always been under her command. "Who is she?"
"Your Majesty, this is my younger sister, Catherine," Carolyn said with a smile. "She has heard about the miracle of Your Majesty's Divine Hand Reviving Spring. She admires Your Majesty very much and has always wanted to see Your Majesty."
"Sister Queen, you are even more beautiful than Sister Carolyn described you to be. You look so young." Catherine looked around 12 or 13 years old and was Carolyn's half-sister. Back when Lao Wang and the others were in the CHF, she was still a little kid wearing diapers. Now, she had grown up and inherited the beauty of the Stuart family. However, she was different from Carolyn's innate aura of a ruler. She looked more mischievous and seemed to be the type that had many tricks up her sleeves. Her small mouth was very sweet. "Everyone says that Your Majesty is the role model for all the noble ladies in the Star Alliance. In my opinion, you are more like an idol! How did you take care of your skin? It's actually like white jade. I'm so envious! "
"Heh heh." The Queen laughed. Normally, she did not like this kind of girl who did not know her place. Since she was Carolyn's younger sister, this flattery worked quite well. "Women's care is learned in universities. It is also a secret technique of the Great Spirit Race. Little girl, when you are free, ask your sister to bring you to White Horse City to play. I will pick a few female officials to teach you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Your Majesty is the most beautiful and the best! "Catherine was so happy that she jumped up." Then I will definitely come. I won't stand on ceremony! "
"Impudent!" After returning to Earth for two to three years, Carolyn had become more and more beautiful. Earth's soil was able to nourish Earthlings. She originally had the aura of a ruler. She used to be arrogant, but after she settled down, it turned into a noble and intellectual aura, making her look even more noble and inviolable. She reprimanded slightly, then looked at the Sidhe Queen apologetically, "Children don't know the rules, Your Majesty, please don't blame them."
"Haha, no problem." The Elf Queen smiled and waved her hand. A child's words carried no harm and were harmless. On the contrary, this was a way for the two of them to get closer. "Oh yes, has the Holy Saint Teacher of yours returned to Earth? Have you ever seen him? "
Even though it had become a level-7 civilization, the Earth still maintained the civilization structure of the Holy City. The Patriarch Society of the Holy City was the center of the entire Earth civilization. Of course, the number of Sacred Teachers in the Patriarch Society had been expanded by about 50. In the future, the number of Sacred Teachers would continue to increase according to the development of the civilization. However, the standard to enter the Patriarch Society had also been raised. Two years ago, one could enter the Patriarch Society as a Peak Foundational Stage, but now, one had to reach the Void Core Realm to be qualified to enter the Patriarch Society.
The Holy Saint Teacher was just an honorific title that ranked above all the Sacred Teachers on Earth. It represented the pioneer of Earthlings, the leader of Earthlings, and it did not specifically refer to the Holy Saint Teacher. Currently, on Earth, Mo Wen and Mu Zi were both considered to be exceptional experts, but the only one who was worthy of the title of Holy Saint Teacher was Wang Zhong. The Elf Queen was asking about Wang Zhong.
"I heard that he has been in closed-door training in the Mirror World," said Carolyn with a smile. There was no change in her expression. "I did not have the opportunity to meet him."
"Aiya, that's because you are unwilling to meet him. Otherwise, the Holy Saint Teacher would definitely not reject you no matter how busy he is." Beside her, Catherine interrupted. "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, let me tell you. That Holy Saint Teacher is Sister Carolyn's first love!"
There was an obvious flash of interest in the Elf Queen's eyes.
Currently, who had the most power and prestige in the Land? It was not the superintendent of the Heavenly Gates, nor was it the chief arbitrator of the Machinery Race. There was no doubt that it was the leader of the Earth, Wang Zhong!
Countless girls in the Star Alliance were captivated by him, and countless civilizations wanted to send him exceptional beauties and mountains of gold and silver in hopes of befriending the Holy Saint Teacher and becoming familiar with him. Unfortunately, he was a cultivation maniac. When he was at the peak of his power, he actually went into closed-door training. Furthermore, he cultivated for a full six years. Many people who wanted to form a relationship with him could only sigh at his failure.
However, she did not expect that Carolyn, who had always been by her side, was actually that person's first love. This kind of story was already fatally attractive to noble ladies like the Elf Queen. Furthermore, if Carolyn really had such a special relationship with that person, it would be much more convenient for the Great Spirit Race on Earth in the future.
What a surprise … Carolyn had never mentioned such important information in front of her.
Just as she was about to ask for details, she saw Carolyn smile and say, "Your Majesty, please don't blame me. It's just a child's hearsay."
What kind of person was the Elf Queen? Even though Carolyn's expression was extremely calm, the Elf Queen could still see some clues.
Was it because that relationship was too unforgettable that she was unwilling to mention it? It seemed like this was a tactful story. There would be opportunities to hear it in the future, and there was no need to force Carolyn to talk about the past that she did not want to talk about.
The Elf Queen smiled and was about to speak when someone outside Carolyn's door announced, "Head Supervisor Carolyn, Madam Scarlet has arrived!"
As Wang Zhong's woman, Scarlet was now the Empress of the Earth. She was also a person who held power on equal footing with Ma Dong, Wang Zhanfeng, and a few others in the Patriarch Society. Regardless of whether it was on Earth or in the entire Star Alliance, her reputation and power were not something that Carolyn could compare with.
"Go and receive your guest." The Elf Queen was very tactful and smiled. Even though she was the master of a level-6 civilization, she could not be compared to the Empress of the Earth. "Send my regards to Madam Scarlet."
"Yes."
After ending the call, Catherine pouted and said, "Hmph, what First Lady! What's so great about her? If she had not interfered, sister, you would have been the First Lady of the Earth! "
"Shut up."
Carolyn's voice was slightly cold. Ever since she returned to Earth two years ago, her father had already passed away. This younger sister was her only blood relative, and it had been a long time since she had spoken to her with a straight face.
Catherine was shocked, and her small face was filled with grievance.
There were over a hundred versions of the 'romantic past' between Carolyn and Wang Zhong within the Stuart Family. Of course, none of them were true. To the Stuart Family, they couldn't wait to make the story of Wang Zhong and Carolyn into the most poignant and beautiful stage play and broadcast it 24 hours a day, 365 days a year in every corner of the Star Alliance. However, it was a pity that they only dared to think about this, and the fabricated version could only be circulated within the family … Catherine had grown up listening to the seven aunts and eight aunts around her talking about this. She had placed too many beautiful fantasies about the first love between her sister and Wang Zhong. She didn't know the truth.
Carolyn could not bear to reprimand her sister. After experiencing too much, her methods of dealing with outsiders had become smoother and smoother, but her heart had become softer and softer.
"Don't listen to the so-called history of the Holy Saint Teacher's first love. It's all fake. It's just senseless talk used by people with ulterior motives to slander the Holy Saint Teacher and Madam Scarlet." In the end, Carolyn gave a sigh, before changing to a more gentle tone. "Furthermore, you have to remember that you're a woman of the Stuart Family, and my younger sister. Regardless of what you want, you'll have to rely on your own two hands to obtain it. Go and obtain it! If you choose to rely on others and take shortcuts, you will eventually lose everything! "
Catherine rarely saw her dearest sister being so serious. She seemed to be shocked and nodded blankly.
"Let's go and welcome Madam Scarlet. Her merits are worth learning from for a lifetime." Carolyn reached out and tidied her clothes.
The man that she had once chosen to give up had now become someone that she could only look up to. The woman that she had once looked down upon had now become a distinguished guest.
Carolyn had once regretted and felt unresigned, but now, all these negative emotions had vanished like smoke in thin air.
From the moment Wang Zhong had brought her out of the slave market in the Heavenly Treasures Street, she might have had regrets or fantasies, but she no longer had any hatred. Now, even the last bit of fantasy no longer existed.
This was her fate. Her father's two children were both girls. If she had an older brother or younger brother, perhaps Carolyn would not have to face all of this.
She was still the Carolyn from before. In order to take over her father's position and bring the Stuart Family to greater heights, she would never care about her own personal interests. This was the case in the past, in the present, and in the future. Even if the heavens gave her another chance, she might still make the same choice. This was because in the past, unless she betrayed her family or directly caused the family to split apart, her personal strength would not be enough to reverse the entire family's choice. She could only take the initiative to give up and balance the voices in the family.
They had gotten to know each other at the wrong time and place. From the very beginning, she and Wang Zhong were destined to be a tragic misunderstanding. There was no loss or gain, as it did not belong to her.
She was Carolyn, the ruler of the Stuart Family. Her fate was to dedicate everything to the Stuart Family. If she had to leave some space and selfishness for herself, perhaps she would never push herself in front of another Solomon for the sake of her own interests.
After taking a deep breath, Carolyn's face recovered its usual calmness and smile.
That person should be coming back soon …
… …
Wang Zhong's disappearance for a full seven years did not affect his reputation in the slightest. He was the ruler of the Earth and a rising star in the Star Alliance.
Everyone thought that he was still in closed-door training in the Mirror World. It seemed that he would not come out of closed-door training in the indefinite future. There were no movements from him, but only those who were closest to him knew that he had quietly returned to Earth a month ago.
In the desert, in a luxurious desert villa, in the Pure Land of New World City …
The large hall was spacious and bright. Outside, the yellow sand danced in the air, and waves of heat rolled in. However, the temperature in the hall was pleasant, and it was cool and comfortable. To those who controlled the rules, it was simply too easy to create some comfort in the desert.
"A three!" There were six 'idlers' in the hall who rarely came for a vacation. Simba's voice was filled with excitement. He only had one last card left in his hand, and it was a king. After losing for an entire afternoon, he was finally going to make a comeback!
"Explode!" Lao Wang waved his hand, and four century eggs appeared.
"Hmph!" Simba's eyes were full of disdain. "No, you play!"
"Explode again!" Lao Wang waved his hand, and four Kings appeared.
Simba was slightly angered. "It's fine if you want to explode when I play a three, but you also explode when it's your turn to play?! You have so many bombs. Why didn't you use them earlier?! "
"I had no choice." Lao Wang spread his hands. "I was willing."
"You … No! You play! "
"Then explode again!" This time, it was four aces.
Simba's eyes widened. He held the king card in his hand and looked pitifully at Lan Daier, who had just returned to Earth for a vacation.
Lan Daier laughed. "Don't look at me. I can't afford it."
"You, you play again! I don't believe that you can … "
Pia！
"It's useless to look at anyone." Lao Wang directly threw out four twos. "No more."
Simba was stunned. Lao Wang had already pulled over a plate of French fries that looked like they belonged to the Dark Cuisine. He smiled and waved it at Simba. "We agreed to play three times! I'm too lazy to count anymore. My dear Simba, just swallow this plate. "
"Ah … Ah ah ah ah!" Simba was furious. This was simply cheating! Who would take cards like this? Four bombs at every turn, and it was the kind that would explode in the sky. "You're cheating! You must have used your power of rules to interfere with the dealing of cards! Lao Wang, you can't be like this … "
Pa pa pa pa pa. Four pairs of slender jade-like hands pressed down on him at the same time. Emily and the others laughed and held him down.
"You — you even brought your own helpers!" Simba screamed.
"You're right. Wang Zhong's group of friends and relatives, make a dazzling appearance!" Emily laughed and grabbed Lao Wang's Dark French fries. She was even more enthusiastic than Lao Wang, the creditor. "If you're willing to bet, you must be willing to lose. Eat it!"
"Ugh!"
Simba gave up. He was the one who suggested playing cards, and he was also the one who suggested eating the Dark Cuisine if he lost. He was just playing around, but in the end, he shot himself in the foot.
This was too smelly! What kind of bastard could bake fries like this? They should be dragged out to light a sky lantern!
The once dead desert had completely turned into an oasis. The new plants transplanted from the Star Alliance could completely control the desert. Everyone had a lot of feelings for this place.
Lao Wang smiled and watched everyone torment Simba. Occasionally, he would also help. After seven years of closed-door training in the Mirror World, this leisurely moment made him extremely relaxed.
Whoosh whoosh ~
Hum ~ ~ ~
A massive spaceship landed outside the house, and a few familiar figures walked out of the spaceship.
Mo Wen, Mu Zi, and Aiolos waited outside the house. They had no intention of coming in and simply smiled at the people in the house. Then, they waited quietly.
What would come would eventually come. Lao Wang's vacation was not indefinite. He did not sneak out from the Mirror World and return to Earth for fun.
Si Jiali, who was laughing very happily just now, instantly calmed down. The others also stopped laughing and making noise.
Inside and outside the house were the people closest to Wang Zhong. Everyone knew that Wang Zhong's plan was to rush to the Heavenly River and ascend to the Heaven together with Mo Wen, Mu Zi, and Aiolos. All the grievances started there, and naturally, they would end there. There were some things that could not be avoided. If they did not take the initiative and allowed the Heaven to strike first, everyone on Earth, including Wang Zhong and the others, would die without a burial place.
Thus, if Lao Wang wanted to go to the Heaven, he had to do it secretly. He had to deliberately avoid the so-called weak period of the Heavenly River Tide and forcefully charge into the Heavenly River at a time that no one would think of. At the same time, he had to hide this from everyone, especially everyone in the Land, including the Machinery race that he had always trusted. Otherwise, any leakage of information might allow the enemies in the Heaven to get wind of this and go to the Heavenly River to wait for him. After all, after the Shannali incident, Lao Wang was already very clear about how many spies the Heaven had in the Land.
Now, everyone thought that Lao Wang was in closed-door training in the Mirror World, and it was not the weak period of the Heavenly River Tide. Choosing to charge into the Heavenly River at this time was the most secretive. Of course, one had to be strong enough. Even the weak Heavenly River could cause many king-leveled Gold Cores to return in defeat. When the Heavenly River was at its peak, it was completely regarded as impossible to pass through.
Lao Wang had this confidence, and so did Mo Wen, Mu Zi, and Aiolos. Over the past few years of training, the four brothers had never relaxed for a moment. If they could not even pass through the Heavenly River at its peak, it meant that they did not have the qualifications to go to the Heaven to face the terrifying four races.
Scarlet had long known about Wang Zhong's plans, and knew that he would be leaving today. Despite the unwillingness and worry in her heart, she did not show it on her face. The unnatural expression on her face only disappeared the instant Mo Wen and the rest appeared in front of her.
She put on an encouraging smile and walked towards Wang Zhong.
Lao Wang smiled and hugged her. "Don't worry. The Heaven is not the Land. We are not going there to establish ourselves … I will be back soon!"
"I believe you. You have never disappointed me." Si Jiali smiled sweetly. "I will wait for you at home!"
She would always wait.
… …
Compared to the core position of the Land, the defenses in the Heavenly Gates were slightly lax. There were almost no guards.
However, the places with the most lax defenses were often the places with the most tight defenses. Even though there were no guards here, it did not mean that others could easily barge in. This was because there was the eternal protection of the colorful glass barrier.
The Rainbow Glass Shroud had always been a taboo in the Land. No one dared to barge in or sneak in. As a divine item that surpassed all the artifacts in the Land, the power of the Rainbow Glass Shroud was not something that a Gold Core could resist. Even a king-leveled martial artist would be in danger of dying if they were to face the attack of the Rainbow Glass Shroud directly.
No one had ever dared to barge in, and it had always been the most worry-free place for the Heavenly Gates. However, at that moment, four uninvited guests had quietly descended from within the barrier. Not only could they not enter, the invincible colorful glass barrier in the Land did not even launch any attacks against these four people who had rashly entered.
Needless to say, having a distinguished identity was indeed a very comfortable thing. Lao Wang had been promoted to one of the elders of the Heavenly Gates after the Civilization War. Although the Heavenly Gates did not give him any substantial power because Lao Wang was obsessed with cultivation, his authority was equivalent to that of Elder Yimo and the others. No place in the Heavenly Gates was forbidden to him. Naturally, he could enter and exit the colorful glass barrier as he pleased. There was no problem even if he brought Mo Wen and the others with him.
Of course, Lao Wang believed that the moment he entered this place, Superintendent Erza, who controlled the colorful glass barrier, would definitely know. However, this was no longer important. Putting aside the fact that Lao Wang trusted Superintendent Erza more, even if she really had other thoughts, it was too late to inform the Heaven now.
Rumble ~ ~ ~
The exaggerated tremors instantly enveloped everyone's ears.
Rumble!!!
Massive surging waves crashed down from the sky and passed through space to appear here. The vast and majestic Heavenly River also lost all its obstructions and appeared extremely clearly in front of the four of them.
The rolling waves carried with them the pressure of a typhoon and continuously swept in all directions. Even people as strong as Lao Wang and the others could not help but feel small in the face of the majestic Heavenly River.
This was the first time Lao Wang and Aiolos had seen this, and a hint of awe involuntarily rose in their eyes.
Mo Wen, who was beside them, sent a voice transmission. "It is indeed much stronger than when Napier and the others crossed the Heavenly River Tide previously. It is about four times stronger … The Heavenly River Tide weakens every 100 years or so. Now is the time when the aura of the Heavenly River is at its strongest."
"You must be joking …" Simba sat on Lao Wang's shoulder and was dumbfounded as he watched. Crossing the Heavenly River was different from the inferior and unstable transmission arrays on Earth. Simba did not need to sleep, and heading to Heaven was also his strong request. Even though his current level of cultivation could not keep up with Lao Wang's pace, as the controller of the Fate Roulette, he stubbornly believed that he would definitely be useful in the future. He could not let Lao Wang take the risk alone.
However, when he truly faced the Heavenly River, he realized that it was too abnormal. Just standing in the mist, which was extremely far away, caused Simba's entire body to tremble, and his heart to beat wildly. It was as if he was about to jump out of his throat from the shock of this majestic flood.
"Hide in my Gold Core." Lao Wang smiled. "I will call you when we reach the place."
If this was any other time, Simba would definitely retort. However, at that moment, when he faced the majestic might of the Heavenly River, all his joking mood disappeared without a trace. He trembled and simply disappeared. Meanwhile, Mo Wen, Mu Zi, and Aiolos looked at each other and smiled.
The four of them had already made the necessary preparations. At that moment, there was no need to say any nonsense.
"Go!"
Lao Wang's body swayed, and golden light shone on his body. Then, he charged into the mist.
The water that fell from the sky was extremely heavy. Just as he entered the edge of the Heavenly River Waterfall, he could already feel the extremely powerful impact.
However, the danger and difficulty did not only lie in the fact that the impact was greater than the Tide.
Unlike the difficulty of crossing the Heavenly River when the Tide was at its weakest, the Heavenly River at its peak had complete rules. At that moment, not only was the Heavenly River Origin Water that fell from the sky heavy, but it also had an unparalleled adhesive force. When it hung on one's body, it added an unimaginable gravitational force to one's body.
Lao Wang simply felt that his entire body had become several hundred times heavier out of nowhere. Furthermore, after entering the range of the Heavenly River Waterfall, the gravitational force and spiritual pressure under his feet instantly increased by more than three to four times! Don't underestimate these three to four times. If the Origin Water that hung on one's body was included, the gravitational force that one had to bear was probably at least 100 times that of a normal Tide!
In terms of physical strength, Lao Wang could not be considered the most resistant out of the four of them. Aiolos's immortal body was probably the most resistant. However, he had the Draconic Spiritual Power to protect his body, and in terms of explosive power, he was definitely the strongest out of the four of them. However, even though he was the strongest, at that moment, he felt as if he could not fly. He was firmly bound by the terrifying gravitational force, and it was rather difficult for him to even straighten his back! It was no wonder that no one had ever been able to cross the Heavenly River during normal times. Just the Water Calamity, the simplest of the three Heavenly River Calamities, was enough to make countless experts in the Land sigh. They might not even be able to enter the Heavenly River.
Lao Wang was also slightly moved. Fortunately, everything was within his expectations. After all, the Heavenly Gates had studied the Heavenly River for so many years, and he already had this bit of common knowledge.
He closed his eyes and spread out his hands. Beside him, Mu Zi and Mo Wen pulled their hands over at the same time. The three of them formed a circle with Aiolos in the middle.
"It's up to you guys." Aiolos smiled. He was more proficient in brute force and physical resistance. However, this Water Calamity of the Heavenly River that was hundreds of times more powerful could not be overcome by brute force or resistance.
Wang Zhong and the others nodded.
"Darkness law — Nothingness!"
"The Buddha said — Drowning is like quicksand, but as light as a feather."
"Ruler — Reversal of the Heavens and Earth, Yin and Yang Shift."
The three powers of the rules were activated at the same time. Black, gold, and white light revolved around the circle formed by the three of them at the same time, enveloping them and forming a three-dimensional sealed space. It was as if this space had transcended the Heavenly River and distorted the rules of space in the surroundings.
All the Heavenly River Origin Water that fell from the sky seemed to be unable to touch this distorted space and naturally split apart along the two sides of this oval conical space. The gravity that was supposed to be vertical became curved, making it look awkward. However, this did not affect the operation of the other rules in the surroundings.
The four of them felt their feet become lighter at the same time, and they naturally rose in this sealed space. They were neither too fast nor too slow as they floated into the sky toward the terrifying Heavenly River Origin Water. In an instant, they had disappeared without a trace.
The first Heavenly River Calamity was without any surprises or dangers. This was also thanks to the four of them being prepared.
Opportunities for success were always given to those who were prepared.
There were three Heavenly River Calamities. The four of them had long been prepared for all the variables and power of the first two Heavenly River Calamities.
Furthermore, it wasn't just based on some calculations. Even when the Heavenly River was in its normal state, although no one had really barged into the Heavenly Gate, the research on it had never stopped. Mo Wen and the others had already read up on a large amount of information. The extremely strong adhesion of the Origin Water increased the power of the Water Calamity, which was originally only four or five times stronger, by a hundred times. The limit of the Land was the Gold Core Realm. This was not a level that any Gold Core expert in the Land could resist with just their physical bodies. They had to rely on the power of the rules to create an independent space. The three of them worked together to create a place for Aiolos to stay. If not, it would be difficult for anyone to carry Aiolos alone, even Lao Wang.
The ground under their feet rapidly became smaller. The Heavenly Gates and the Earth Boundary, which were initially visible, quickly disappeared in the vast Heavenly River. Their vision was blocked by the gushing white water. After rushing upwards for over ten minutes at the end of the month, the water flow of the Heavenly River, which had originally blocked everything, suddenly became much gentler. The white waves turned into clear water. At the same time, the space of rules that enveloped the four of them also dissipated.
The four of them were extremely clear that this was the lightning zone of the second Heavenly River Calamity. In this position, the four of them had already left the boundaries of the Land. They were no longer affected by the laws of gravity in the Land. At the same time, the laws contained in this space were very different from when they were in the Land.
It was just like when Earthlings went to the Land. The laws here were more complete and firmer than the space in the Land. At the same time, they were also more unfamiliar. Even though they were not rejected by this space, they could no longer find the feeling of being acknowledged by the world in the Land.
Boom!
A purplish-green bolt of lightning suddenly struck from the distant starry sky and traversed the entire Heavenly River.
Pa pa pa pa ~ ~ ~
The entire section of the Heavenly River was instantly electrified. Countless terrifying purplish-green bolts of lightning shuttled through the pure and clear water of the Heavenly River. Mu Zi and Mo Wen instantly trembled. Regardless of whether it was the defense of their physical bodies or the power of rules, they could not block this attack. They felt as if their entire bodies had been paralyzed by electricity. If Lao Wang and Aiolos had not reacted quickly, they would have been paralyzed by this electric current and fallen down.
As expected, it was the purplish-green lightning!
There were three types of lightning that were the most difficult to resist. The purplish-green lightning was undoubtedly one of them. It was not that this lightning was very powerful, but that it could ignore all defenses. The space of rules that the three of them had unleashed together was completely useless here.
Lao Wang and Aiolos were the only ones who could resist this. The former controlled 11 types of origin laws and had a high resistance against lightning, while the latter had an undying body and was invincible. He could forcefully resist the lightning.
However, even so, Aiolos and Lao Wang still felt that they could not take it. They had just entered the lightning zone, and they were already attacked by the purplish-green lightning. They could already imagine how difficult it would be to resist in the future.
"Let's go!" The two of them grabbed one in each hand and exerted force from their Gold Cores. Their feet were like rocket launchers, and they shot up along with the water of the Heavenly River.
Crack! Crack!
Boom boom boom!
The Will of the Heavenly River seemed to have sensed these four intruders. In the endless void, countless bolts of lightning started to strike down.
There were purplish-green lightning bolts that ignored defenses, giant lightning bolts that were as thick as mountains, dense electric chains that connected to form a net, and various lightning balls that were like asteroids.
In an instant, explosions erupted in the void and the Heavenly River. It was as if a grand lightning party had started.
Wang Zhong's entire body shone with a golden light. His Draconic Aura combined with his lightning resistance allowed him to resist in this dense lightning zone. He could even protect Mu Zi. However, on the other side, Aiolos and Mo Wen were not so lucky.
Their bodies were badly mutilated. Aiolos was in a slightly better state. He had already condensed his Gold Core four years ago, and the recovery ability of his immortal body was no longer the same as before. He had activated his Gold Core to the extreme, and the flesh on his body that had been smashed by the lightning was continuously regenerating at a speed visible to the naked eye. Although he was forcefully holding on at the cost of his life, he still looked passable on the surface. On the other hand, Mo Wen was in a more miserable state. At this moment, there was not a single part of his body that was intact. He had been struck by the lightning until he was charred and smashed. He had already fallen into a state of unconsciousness. If not for the fact that Buddhism emphasized the cultivation of the soul and allowed him to have some resistance against the fatal lightning that targeted his soul, he might not have been able to survive this stage.
"Hold on, hold on! We're almost there! " As Aiolos charged forward, he continuously called out to Mo Wen, afraid that he would fall into a deep sleep. However, in reality, even he could not hold on much longer.
Just as he was about to run out of energy, he saw Wang Zhong, who was not far in front of him, suddenly disappear. Before Aiolos could rejoice, the inertia had already brought him away from the lightning zone.
The scene before him suddenly became clear. This is …
Aiolos was slightly stunned.
The seemingly endless Heavenly River had actually disappeared, and he was now in a starry sky of nothingness. Wang Zhong was right in front of him, and he felt an indescribable sense of loss.
This place was different from the starry sky that was dotted with stars under normal circumstances. The starry sky in the distance could be described as bizarre and dazzling. There were countless resplendent stars forming a rainbow barrier that hung across the horizon. There was also a massive galaxy that spiraled in the distant starry sky. There were also various absurd images, and there were figures that were even larger than the nebula that suddenly appeared and disappeared in the void … The only thing that did not change was the starry sky curtain that hung above the four of them.
It appeared to be colorful, yet incomparably serene. Even looking at it from afar, the four of them could not help but feel a sense of peace and tranquility. It was as if this was the pure land of bliss that all living beings were pursuing. However, it was far away in the horizon, sacred and majestic, and could only be seen from afar and not approached.
This … Had they arrived in Heaven?
Regardless of whether it was Lao Wang, Aiolos, or the others, this thought involuntarily emerged in their hearts. However, they immediately became vigilant.
No! That's not right!
According to the records in the Heavenly Gates, there were a total of three calamities in the Heavenly River. The first was the water calamity, the second was the lightning calamity, and the third was the so-called Heavenly Calamity that no one knew the specific details of.
Some people said that the third calamity was a comprehensive Heavenly Calamity where the five elements or the six supreme laws would all be tested. Some people also said that the third calamity was a Heart Demon Calamity that tested one's heart. However, it was a pity that all of these were just guesses.
Yes, from ancient times until now, no one in the entire Land knew what the third Heavenly Calamity on the Heavenly Path was. This was because any expert who had passed the lightning calamity would enter Heaven if they lived, and their corpse would not be left if they died! It was impossible for them to fall back from the Heavenly River, not even if they died. As for the experts who had entered Heaven, it was impossible for them to return to the Land. The only way to find out about their situation was through the special envoys who went from the Heaven to the Land to collect faith. Occasionally, they would hear some rumors about those who had passed the calamity.
Then, could this bizarre and dazzling world that could not be touched be the third calamity of the Heavenly River?
"Be careful!"
A voice suddenly sounded in Lao Wang's Gold Core. It was Simba's voice. It was obviously different from his usual joking tone. It actually … made Lao Wang feel that he was more steady and trustworthy.
He did not think too much and instinctively pulled Mu Zi back. Closely after, an extremely massive light suddenly slashed at the spot where he had been hovering in mid-air without warning.
Hua!
This light was as white as a horse and was so massive that it seemed to be able to pierce through the heaven and earth. The power it contained was unimaginably great. Even Lao Wang instantly felt a fatal threat.
The four of them became vigilant at the same time. They saw a shadow appear in front of them. It was a massive and lofty figure.
Its head reached the sky and its feet touched the ground. It was tens of thousands of feet tall, and Wang Zhong and the others were like four tiny ants in front of it.
It had three heads: a dog head, a sheep head, and a tiger head. Each head was laughing wildly and drooling at Wang Zhong and the others.
It also had six arms, and on each of its arms hung all sorts of terrifying magical artifacts that shone with golden light. Every magical artifact contained a great amount of deterrence, and its power was at least comparable to the Heavenly Gate's Seven-Colored Glazed Shield! However, these many powerful artifacts did not seem to be used in battle. Instead, they were just decorations that it casually hung on its body!
Furthermore, the power that it emitted was even more terrifying. Even the entire void trembled because of its appearance! Compared to Wang Zhong and the others in their normal state, it was like comparing the ocean to a drop of water, or the desert to sand …
This was … a creature from the Heaven?! Which race was this? Was it the Violent Demon Race?
"Heh heh heh! Not bad, not bad. You were able to dodge my attack. " The giant with three heads and six arms laughed loudly. "As expected of food that can rush up here at this time. Compared to those fellows who can only run up here after waiting for the Tide, you can be considered experts."
Food?
This was not a name that could make people feel happy.
Lao Wang carefully sized him up. This creature that could appear in the 'third calamity of the Heavenly River' did not seem illusory at all. It did not seem like a heart demon illusion technique. It truly existed. The power of the laws that could mobilize the heaven and earth was not something that could be simulated by an illusion.
"Senior." Lao Wang decided to ignore his evil intentions and probed. "Is this the Heaven?"
"The Heaven?" The giant was slightly dumbfounded. Then, it laughed out loud. His terrifying laughter reverberated throughout the world and simply deafened everyone's ears. "Ha ha ha ha ha! Yes, to the food in the Land, this is your paradise! "
"Food?" Wang Zhong smiled. "Senior, are you planning to eat us? Looking at our bodies, the four of us are probably not even enough to fill the gaps between your teeth, right? "
"I'll let you know why you're going to die. I'm going to eat your Gold Cores! That thing doesn't matter if it's big or small! "The creature with three heads and six arms laughed loudly." Now that you understand, you can go and die! "
He extended his six arms at the same time. These arms were so huge that they pierced through the sky and the earth. Even a casual grab seemed to contain the power of the entire universe as it came crashing down!
If it was a normal Gold Core from the Land who had crossed the Tide, they would have been instantly crushed into minced meat by this monstrous power. However, there was no panic in the eyes of Wang Zhong and the other three.
The Netherworld King and Buddha statues appeared in the sky. Meanwhile, a massive black and white chessboard intertwined in the void! They instantly blocked the six arms at the same time.
Rumble ~ ~ ~
When the terrifying energy collided, the massive roar instantly spread throughout the universe!
The expressions of the three-headed creature changed rapidly.
