Katchirda …
The sandstorm stopped, but Reynolds fell into a coma. The Katchirda tribe came to ask for instructions on what to do next. All of a sudden, there were a lot of things to do. Although Gong Yi, who was also injured, was worried about Wang Zhong, he had to focus on dealing with the situation.
They wanted to set off to look for Wang Zhong, but they were stopped by the elders of Katchirda. After the sandstorm, the desert had completely changed. The traces of the battlefield had disappeared. Without a guide, food, and camels, entering the desert after the sandstorm was akin to playing with one's life. Not to mention the Heroic Soul Stage, even the Heavenly Soul Stage would not be able to enter unless they had successfully passed the Heavenly Calamity.
Every minute and second was torturous until Little Black rushed in. "Someone's back. Sister Hong is back."
Almost instantly, everyone rushed out. At this time, Grai was the slowest. He couldn't help but smile. How could this be possible?
"Wang Zhong!"
Napier was the first to see Wang Zhong's figure clearly. He jumped up, threw down the water bag in his hand, and rushed over.
After seeing Wang Zhong, everyone's heart instantly felt refreshed, as if they had found their pillar of support.
Sharmie took over Sister Hong and supported her to the medical room. Everyone gave Wang Zhong a big hug. In fact, relationships were built through combat. Although Sharmie and the others had a good impression of Wang Zhong in the past, it was only through constant combat that they had formed a "comrade-in-arms" relationship.
This was something that could only be verified through life and death.
Wang Zhong didn't leave immediately. He originally thought that there would be more trouble, but he didn't expect the Katchirda Oasis to shake the Tutankhamun Empire in just a few days.
A force that could destroy the Scorpion Mercenary Group and kill Moyus was definitely one of the top forces in Tutankhamun.
Caslort was terrified. When he learned that Moyus had died in battle, it was said that he was so scared that he peed his pants and immediately sent messengers to negotiate with them. He was extremely lowly. One had to know that there were countless people who were eyeing him.
It wasn't that Gong Yi and the others didn't consider taking the opportunity to get rid of Caslort.
No, this was just the beginning in the desert. Furthermore, they were outsiders, which meant that there was no room for maneuver. Wang Zhong could not stay here forever, and they still had to rely on themselves for the time being. What was the trump card of a feudal lord?
They didn't dare to say anything, but they were sure that Moyus wasn't the only one.
On the other hand, the royal family of the Tutankhamun Empire didn't care much about the fighting and killing among the nobles in the desert. To the king of the Tutankhamun Empire, these killings were actually letting the nobles bleed, which was beneficial to his rule. However, if he were to kill them all, it might cause the royal family to change their stance. It was unwise to go against an empire.
However, Gong Yi would definitely not let his opponent off easily. Taking advantage of the situation was definitely his trump card!
Katchirda was no longer a tribe but a small oasis. He wanted to build a city, Katchirda City!
At the same time, a present attracted Wang Zhong's attention.
Golden Stone Slab!
It was very rare for newcomers from the Holy Land to come back. After all, it was very expensive. For those who had cultivated to a certain level, they might have lost interest in the real world and would not want to go back. The defeat of the Scorpion King had caused the opponents to completely lose their ability to resist and become jittery. However, there was still a lot of time left, and no one wanted to waste it.
It was rare for Sharmie to come back to Earth. She wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to go back to her hometown to see her parents. There was a direct transmission channel from the Tutankhamun Empire to the Federation. Although it would be a little troublesome on the way, it would be good to be able to go back for even a day. Mario naturally had to go to visit his father-in-law and mother-in-law. Before he left, he had a nervous and inexplicable excitement on his face, making the others smile without saying a word.
Mo Ling and Napier heard about Wang Zhong's experience in the desert and also wanted to take this opportunity to go and see if they could gain any insights. Everyone agreed to return to Katchirda in half a month. The Golden Stone Slab was one of the promised compensation, but the slab was not in Caslort's hands. However, he promised to deliver it within two months. Although it was a dilemma, Gong Yi had tried his best. Although the Golden Stone Slab belonged to the feudal lord, it was not in his hands now. Regardless of whether Caslort was telling the truth, he could only choose to look at the bigger picture. Gong Yi would definitely keep an eye on it because it was rare for Wang Zhong to be so interested in something.
On the other hand, Wang Zhong stayed in Katchirda. The town needed to be rebuilt after the war, and he also needed to guard against any remaining forces that might cause damage during the reconstruction period. He also needed to eliminate some remaining forces in the surrounding areas. He had plenty of things to do. More importantly, Wang Zhong had learned a lot from the previous battle. Some extremely urgent ideas had already taken shape in his mind.
Although the increase in Soul Power and the power of his Dharma Idol were the capital that he could rely on now, how long could such capital last?
Frankly speaking, Wang Zhong was starting to feel that the combat methods he used to use in the Casted Soul Stage were starting to weaken at this stage.
The Laforgue Infinite Slash was not bad, but it was still a technique used in the Casted Soul Stage. It was a little difficult to use it in the Heroic Soul Stage. It could be seen that there were also limitations to the legendary level. After all, compared to the Holy Land, perhaps Laforgue was nothing. However, with his talent, he was still able to create such a magical technique in the Casted Soul Stage. It was still worthy of admiration and respect. It was just that Wang Zhong needed to improve.
Not only his cross wheels, but his 2nd Drive, 3rd Drive, Ghostly Steps, as well as his various other combat techniques and techniques, were all able to display their maximum effects when he was in the Casted Soul Stage. Whether it was the doubling of his attack power, or the incomparable coordination between his speed and movement techniques, all of these techniques and techniques would become increasingly smaller. However, with a large increase in his Soul Power, the amplification of these techniques and techniques would become increasingly smaller.
It was a very simple principle. Ten dollars could easily be multiplied a hundred times. It was possible to buy a pair of gloves to carry bricks at a construction site and earn ten thousand dollars. However, if you wanted to turn ten thousand dollars into one million dollars, the difficulty would immediately change.
Compared to the Heroic Soul Stage, everything in the Casted Soul Stage was worthless. Even Wang Zhong's Great 5 Elements Constitution, which was valued by many big shots on Earth during the CHF, was nothing more than a useless shell in the eyes of the people in the Holy City. That was why some big shots in the stands were excited, while others were indifferent. Those who were excited were country bumpkins who had stayed on Earth all their lives, while those who were indifferent must have seen a completely different world in the Holy City.
Indeed, the foundation of the Great 5 Elements Constitution was very high. Even in the Holy City, it was one of the few talents with the strongest physical foundations. However, the problem was that the Mystic Sect and the Sparta Clan didn't need such physical talents. Their training directions were different. As for the Tyrants? Any Holy Disciple of the Smelting Faculty could easily surpass the so-called Great 5 Elements Constitution as long as they made reasonable modifications to their bodies. There were too many ways and the accumulated experience of their predecessors. This was also the reason why Wang Zhong completely gave up on studying the Great 5 Elements Constitution after he entered the Tyrants.
It wasn't that it wasn't good, but it was impractical and worthless. To put it nicely, it might be because he hadn't found a way to use it, but in a world where the Holy Land determined the mainstream, who dared to take the risk? Could it be that he was so powerful that he could ignore the system established by the great Holy Land?
The only useful things that remained in the Casted Soul Stage were probably battle awareness, willpower, and some instinctive reactions.
Now, he might be able to rely on these battle awareness and the heaven-defying balance function of the chessboard Dharma Idol to dominate for a while, but if he continued like this, when his Soul Power improved further, his previous combat skills would become completely useless. The overuse of his Dharma Idol would also make him dependent on it, which would only make him weaker and weaker.
Today's battle also reminded him that even Tutankhamun had such a genius. What about the Holy Land? Obviously, he wasn't the only Vicinity Dharma Idol, and it was hard to say whether he was the strongest or not.
If he wanted to continue to be strong and stand at the peak of his level, it was imperative to create a new Heroic Soul combat method that belonged to him. Now, among the Holy Disciples, people like Solomon and Carolyn had begun to try to create and adapt to this aspect of combat. He was already a step behind, and he couldn't delay any longer.
The Holy Land only gave him a direction. If he wanted guidance, he would need the approval of a Great Teacher. Obviously, Wang Zhong didn't have much hope. Furthermore, his cultivation route was different from others, so even a Great Teacher might not be able to guide him. Even Aiolos wouldn't say anything. It would be good if Lan Daier could give him some ideas and ideas from time to time. As for determining the direction and how to improve himself, it all depended on Wang Zhong's own thinking.
Therefore, Wang Zhong did not participate in the construction of Katchirda Town at all. The environment here was very suitable for him to calm down and think. It was useless to just work hard. The most important thing was to think, summarize, and sort out his thoughts. By drawing inferences about other cases from one case, he would be able to make further qualitative changes. As his Soul Power increased, Wang Zhong felt that it was about time.
After the war, it was inevitable that some people would try to take advantage of the situation. He didn't have to worry about this at all. There were people like this even in the Federation, not to mention Tutankhamun, where the strong preyed on the weak. These were all things that Wang Zhong practiced during his meditation.
No matter where his opponents came from or what tricks they had, they were easily destroyed by a person wearing a clown mask.
Soon, the news of the Fate Master sacrificing himself to Tutankhamun spread. After all, that mask was too eye-catching, and his strength was absolutely terrifying.
It was just a new town, but it had such a terrifying expert. Who would dare to provoke them?
After a few days of chaos, the reconstruction work of Gong Yi and the others began to go smoothly, and the surrounding forces began to show signs of cooperation and friendship. Of course, Gong Yi wanted to make things difficult for them. To put it simply, return what you took from me, and spit out what you ate from me.
As long as a force in the desert had such a top-notch expert in charge, any opponent would be wary of taking action. Gong Yi also deliberately spread the news. As for the relationship between Wang Zhong and the Fate Master, he obviously didn't need to know. Frankly speaking, Gong Yi was somewhat glad. Meeting Wang Zhong was probably the luckiest thing that had happened in his life, and going through thick and thin with him was probably the wisest bet he had made in his life. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that a practitioner who was originally about the same level as him, or even much weaker, could become so strong in just four or five months. One had to know that less than half a year ago, this guy was just a small Casted Soul … He had already begun to look forward to the day when his ideal composition would be realized with Wang Zhong's help.
He really didn't know if it was the Holy Land that was too powerful, or if it was Wang Zhong who was too powerful. However, Gong Yi felt that if the Holy Land was like this, then the others really didn't want to live anymore. Although the others that Wang Zhong brought with him were also very strong, there was still a gap between them and Wang Zhong.
Wang Zhong was trying to further improve the cross wheels that he was most comfortable with. He wanted to get rid of the restrictions that Laforgue had on the cross wheels, which meant that he had to surpass them, not in terms of strength, but in terms of Laforgue's theoretical understanding of the infinite spiral cross wheels. At the same time, he was also further studying his own Dharma Idol. Salamander's Flaming Chains had some peculiar powers that could be transmitted and fused together, but it was very difficult for it to be used in actual combat. Wang Zhong was considering making use of this point. Perhaps he could start with his own runes.
Some ideas had gradually taken shape in his mind, and he had also put a lot of things into practice during the non-stop battles. Although he wasn't completely successful, at least two general directions had been determined, but he still needed some time to perfect them.
Katchirda was now completely stable, so Wang Zhong had no choice but to stop in advance and rest in Katchirda for two days. During this period, Gong Yi tried to contact Ma Dong, but the connection between them was like the one between Gong Yi and Wang Zhong, who was in the Holy City; he couldn't reply in time. Unfortunately, Wang Zhong didn't get to chat with Ma Dong face-to-face on Skylink until the time limit for the Pioneering Order was up. However, he at least knew some of the general situation on Ma Dong's side, so he should be relatively safe. Emily's outburst surprised him a little, and Assassin's counterattack allowed Wang Zhong to vent his anger. In general, it was some pleasant news.
When they came, they came empty-handed, but when they left, they were all filled with things. The only pity was that the stone slab didn't arrive. Of course, for the stone slab, it was worth it even if they had to make another trip.
The space crystals of Grai, Napier, Mo Ling, and the others were almost filled with things. Rare things on Earth, such as high-level runic weapons, might not be worth a penny in the Holy City, but some local specialties were still of some value in the Holy City. Wang Zhong's space crystal had more than a dozen jars of Samsara wine, which Mu Zi had left for Gong Yi and the others. These things couldn't really be sold on Earth, so since Wang Zhong wanted them, Gong Yi naturally brought them all.
As for Mario and Sharmie, who were the last to return, Gong Yi didn't need to take care of them. Now, even an ant couldn't squeeze into the space in their bracelets. It was said that his enthusiastic mother-in-law had stuffed almost the entire house into Mario's space crystal. Although it wasn't something very valuable in the Holy City, at least the two of them wouldn't lack the flavor of their hometown for the next few years.
The first thing he did after returning to the Holy City was to look for Lan Daier. He could give some of the local specialties that Gong Yi had stuffed into his space crystal to Lan Daier. It could be considered a gift and a memento. More importantly, the loan from the Wanderlust Team couldn't be delayed. Wang Zhong didn't have any extra Holy Coins for the time being, so he could only borrow them from someone. Of course, he wouldn't borrow them for free. He would use the ten jars of Samsara wine that he brought back as collateral. This was something that he had thought about before coming back.
This was the second time that Wang Zhong and Lan Daier had put the Samsara wine on the agenda. With the previous contact, the exchange this time was quite smooth. Lan Daier gave a rough estimate of the Samsara wine. If the operation was good, it should be able to sell for about a thousand Holy Coins per bottle, or even more. After all, they were dealing with some high-end customers in the Holy City, and the Samsara wine was an absolute monopoly product. However, it was hard to say how fast this thing would sell. After all, not everyone would recognize it so well.
Of course, since the Samsara wine only provided a kind of spiritual memory and didn't have any effect, only Lan Daier's channels could sell it for a high price. Knowing that Wang Zhong was short of money, Lan Daier paid him 5,000 Holy Coins in advance. However, Wang Zhong, this prodigal, could only use it to pay off his debts. He came empty-handed and left empty-handed. Wang Zhong really didn't seem to have anything to do with money.
