"These might be the two front teeth of that phoenix!" Simba used his imagination quite seriously. The vast white ground around him looked too much like bones. Simba suspected that he was standing on the corpse of a phoenix. Good heavens, if that was really the case, how big would this phoenix be?
"A phoenix is a bird. How can it have teeth?" Wang Zhong couldn't help but want to knock it.
"Tsk …" Simba was stunned. He pouted and retorted, "We haven't seen it before. Who knows? Let's go. It's very strange that it's empty here. Let's quickly go over and see if there are any changes. It's best if there's a tunnel that we can slip through. Oh right, we can ask our captive first! You! "
Simba shouted. He had become addicted to scaring Tatamu in the middle of the night. Little Simba was very vengeful. During this period of time, this damn eight-clawed monster didn't torture them. It completely dissected and studied Wang Zhong like an animal. Deep down, Simba was soft-hearted. Otherwise, he would have cut this eight-clawed monster into eight pieces first. How could it still be here?
But this time, before it could scare Wang Zhong, the eight-clawed monster with only seven legs had already rushed to Wang Zhong and hugged his thigh. "Master! Almighty Master! "
At first, Tatamu was actually very depressed when it compromised. It gave up its chance to serve a god and ran over to be a lackey of a human? But it had no choice but to lower its head. If it spoke slowly, one of its legs would be cut off. How many legs did it have for them to cut off? Therefore, it had no choice but to cooperate. It had to endure hardships and sacrifice itself to become a thief!
But now, it had entered the Forbidden Land even if it couldn't. Even if it could make it out alive in the end, the Octopus people would most likely not let it go. This meant that it was tied to Wang Zhong no matter what. Its escape route was blocked, and it had no choice but to board the ship.
What else could it do? Instead of letting Sauron cut off its legs, it might as well let nature take its course and treat it as if it had changed its master. Anyway, Sauron was not its first master. Moreover, this human was so powerful that Tatamu almost worshipped him. He could actually ignore the Holy Land of the Octopus people's royal family! If there was really no way for her to follow such a powerful and honorable existence, it wouldn't be too humiliating for her.
"Your noble light shines on Tatamu, Tatamu …" Tatamu had a flattering look on its face, and it was about to make up for its mistake by flattering Ling Ran.
"Cut the crap." Just as it was about to make up for its mistake by flattering Wang Zhong, Wang Zhong waved his hand and interrupted it. "How much do you know about the forbidden area? Tell me everything."
"Yes yes yes!" Tatamu's face turned gloomy. Its new master did not seem to like flattering others, but it was best at flattering others. How, how was Wang Zhong going to get used to this … Tatamu did not dare to show its gloominess on its face. Its new master was more pragmatic, so it hurriedly responded to its master's request and organized all the things in its mind related to the remains in the sky.
"It is said that this space was formed from the bones and divine sense of the Phoenix God. It is so massive that there is no end to it. There are also many mystical crystals that contain massive amounts of energy, as well as flaming grass that contains pure energy. They are all created by Will. They are gifts that the Phoenix God left for the Octopus people before he ascended …"
"You don't have to say anymore. Come and take a look at this." Wang Zhong had already passed through the door that had huge pillars. There were no obvious changes in his surroundings, but he found a massive phoenix totem engraving on the ground. Looking at its appearance, it was very similar to the space that he had seen when he looked up at the sky from the top of the mountain. There was also a row of words beside it, but they were written in the Mizobudapi language. Wang Zhong could not understand them at all.
"Yes, yes, yes …" Tatamu hurriedly followed Wang Zhong. After taking a look, it was pleasantly surprised. "This is the map of the forbidden area! Look! "
It pointed at the totem engraving. There were two different engravings of flames on the figure of the phoenix. One was on its head, and the other was on its heart. At the same time, there was a small glowing dot on its back, which was most likely where everyone was standing now. "Tatamu remembers that the despicable Sauron mentioned that he once stood on the head of the Phoenix God. At that time, he was invited to accompany the royal family to worship the heavens. The place marked with flames on its head must be where the royal family worshiped their ancestors and buried their kings! As for the heart, it must be the treasure house of the Octopus people! The words on the engraving also indicate the direction. The direction of the engraving is the direction of the remains. "
It excitedly made a comparison. The position of the head should be directly in front of the two huge pillars that they had just passed through. However, it then discovered something that made it even more excited.
"This is not only a map, but also a transmission array! It can be activated with the bloodline of the royal family, and we can switch back and forth between the three positions marked on the map. This is great. We … Eh, why isn't there an exit? "
Tatamu nagged, but it was suddenly dumbfounded. They were not going to worship the heavens, nor were they here to search for treasures. They were here to escape. Previously, Sauron had said that after the worship, they did not go back the way they came. Instead, they followed the royal family through a spatial tunnel and directly returned to the Imperial City. This made Tatamu think that it had the chance to follow Wang Zhong and find this spatial tunnel to escape. However, at this moment, it did not find any traces of the so-called spatial tunnel on the map.
"Spatial tunnel? Since they worshiped at the head, could the spatial tunnel be at the head? "
Tatamu shook its head repeatedly. "Definitely not. That is the place where the Octopus people worship the heavens and their ancestors. It is very solemn, and they are definitely not allowed to travel through space."
"Kid, you must be lying." Simba threatened. He had hoped that this fellow would resist and cut off its legs. That would be interesting, but in the end, this fellow suddenly became very proactive.
Tatamu was anxious. "How can that be! Tatamu's loyalty to Master can be seen by the heavens! We, the Polylegs, are the most loyal beings in this world! Tatamu is even more so … "
"You just betrayed the Octopus people." Simba fiercely exposed its shortcomings. This eight-legged monster was too uncooperative. At least resist a little. If it continued to take the initiative, Simba would be too embarrassed to eat its legs.
"How is this betrayal? This is abandoning darkness for light! This is because Tatamu has finally found a light in the sea of bitterness! " Tatamu proudly stood beside Wang Zhong. "Only a great being like Master is qualified to have Tatamu's true loyalty!"
Seeing that these two fellows were about to divert the topic even further, Wang Zhong was speechless. He quickly waved his hand. Although he seemed casual, his consciousness had always enveloped Tatamu. At such a close distance, he could even clearly detect Tatamu's heartbeat. If it was lying, he could more or less see some clues. It seemed that the so-called spatial exit was indeed not at the head. "Stop talking nonsense. Let's go to the treasure house."
Anyway, he was just trying his luck. Was there really a transmission array in the treasure house? Even if there wasn't, he could at least take away a few treasures from the Octopus people. He might even be able to improve his strength and kill his way out.
He asked Tatamu to translate the activation sign next to the transmission array on the map. Just as Wang Zhong was about to activate the transmission array to the treasure house, he suddenly saw a figure appear out of thin air in front of him.
That was the place where he had landed when he entered the remains' space. Had his pursuers already arrived so quickly?
The moment this figure appeared in the air, the powerful aura of the Heavenly Soul Stage surged toward him. It was the Sword Saint who had ascended the mountain! Tatamu, who had been full of energy and wanted to escape with Wang Zhong, immediately became listless. Its seven legs were trembling, and it was as quiet as a cicada in winter.
Pievrov's forehead was already sweating slightly. He had sprinted with all his might on the last stretch of the white jade stairs, and even he was quite tired. Reactivating the transmission array also consumed a lot of energy, and he was forcefully reduced to a Semi-Heavenly Soul. However, it was more than enough to deal with a human at the Heroic Soul Stage.
"Great." Pievrov's chest rose and fell slightly, but he smiled. He had finally caught up to Wang Zhong. He had not wasted his energy and risked losing his way to rush up here.
This was not the first time Pievrov had come to the Phoenix Forbidden Land. There was a flash of golden light in the sky, and in the blink of an eye, Pievrov was already a few meters away from Wang Zhong. "How do you want to die for trespassing into my race's Holy Land?"
"No, it has nothing to do with me!" In the face of the pressure from a Sword Saint, Tatamu could not help but tremble. Without any hesitation, it chose to betray Wang Zhong for the second time.
"I told you that this fellow is unreliable." Simba did not forget to take the opportunity to mock Wang Zhong even though he had turned into a mask.
Wang Zhong's attention was completely focused on the Sword Saint who had barged in. He was different from Heinrich. When they were outside, he could clearly feel that this fellow was stronger than Heinrich, but for some reason, he felt that this fellow was about the same as him. He was just a Semi-Heavenly Soul.
How could a mere Semi-Heavenly Soul act pretentiously in front of him? With the divine sword in hand, Wang Zhong's power continued to surge. After being chased and tortured for so long, even a clay figurine would be angry. Perhaps he would die in battle today, but it would definitely not be this fellow in front of him.
His Soul Power surged, and Pievrov's expression became serious. He seemed to have completely misjudged the situation. Wang Zhong was not a Heroic Soul, but a Semi-Heavenly Soul. However, even so, Wang Zhong had no chance of winning. On the surface, their power seemed to be equal, but he was a genuine Sword Saint, while Wang Zhong had just advanced to the Semi-Heavenly Soul Stage. They had the same power, but they were still one realm apart.
When he looked at the treasure of the Sword Faction, Pievrov's expression became deep.
"You will pay the heaviest price for the holiness that you have tarnished!"
Wang Zhong smiled and infused his Soul Power into the Nebula Sword. The Nebula Sword in his hand started to shine with a light that was as deep as a nebula. Not only did the sword shine, but even the surrounding space seemed to be enveloped by a nebula. It was as if he was standing in the air in a boundless starry universe, and the divine sword in his hand was the center of this universe!
Wang Zhong never thought that the Nebula Sword would undergo such a change. In the past, even though he had obtained the acknowledgement of the divine sword, could control it, and could sense the connection between him and the divine sword, such an abnormal phenomenon had never occurred when he used the sword. Was it because his divine cells and his Soul Power had been baptized and transformed after experiencing the trial? It looked like the item in his hand was not ordinary. It seemed that the Octopus people had not made such a big fuss just for their pride.
He was at least 60 to 70% confident. But now, when he sensed the flourishing power from the divine sword, Wang Zhong's confidence soared to an unprecedented level. "I always thought that only humans would have a delusional sense of superiority. Compared to you guys, I am nothing. Sometimes, I really wonder what you guys have been doing all these years with such good conditions. You are really backward."
The Mizobudapi people were born in the Fifth Dimension, which meant that they were one dimension higher than humans. Their civilization had been around for a longer time, but in the end, they had developed to this state. If humans were in their shoes, they would have killed everyone.
Meanwhile, the murderous intent on Pievrov's face had turned into astonishment. Closely after, it was anger and disbelief.
There were two things that were extremely important to the Mizobudapi people: the phoenix that represented their faith, and the sword that represented their soul. This was especially true for swordsmen. Although there were many good swords in the Mizobudapi World, and their forging techniques had reached the pinnacle of individual weapons, there were only ten divine swords. The Nebula Sword could be ranked among the top three. Frankly speaking, if it was not for Heinrich's special identity, he would not have the right to use this treasure and would not have been able to unleash the true power of the Nebula Sword. Simply put, the nebula just did not reject Heinrich, but it did not mean that he could control it. However, this human in front of him could resonate with the divine sword!
He was merely a human, a low-leveled lifeform.
This person definitely could not be allowed to live!
Capturing him alive and exchanging him for rewards was not even worth mentioning compared to the legitimate reputation of the Sword Faction.
His murderous intent instantly soared and filled the air. It even condensed into a physical form. Clusters of golden light dazzled from Pievrov's body, diluting and covering up the cosmic sea of stars that the Nebula Sword had created. He wanted to kill this child.
In an instant, the golden light dazzled, and the intense light was blinding!
Hum hum hum hum …
A sword hum seemed to respond to Pievrov's desire. His divine sword buzzed continuously in its scabbard, as if it could not wait to be unsheathed.
Zeng!
Before the sword hum disappeared, the golden light was still there, but Pievrov had already disappeared from his original spot. His speed could not be seen with the naked eye.
It was as if he had teleported. The explosive power of a Sword Saint was definitely the most fatal killing move in close combat. When Simba and Tatamu's gazes were still fixed on the golden light that remained in his original spot, the divine sword that had been unsheathed had already pierced Wang Zhong's chest.
This was different from when he had fought against Heinrich. Most of the time, he had relied on guesses, luck, and his limits. However, this time, Wang Zhong's eyes were not lost at all. Instead, they were extremely clear.
The improvement in his eyesight, perception, and divine cells was not abnormal. Instead, it was complete. His eyes could completely keep up with his opponent's explosive speed and how he had crossed such a long distance in one step to arrive in front of him. Even his opponent's quick movements such as starting and retreating, drawing his sword out of its scabbard, and so on could not be hidden from Wang Zhong's eyes.
The Divine Circuit had already been added to his body. After going through the extreme tempering of the trial steps, regardless of whether it was the divine cells in his body or the overlapping Soul Power Circuits, they had undergone a new transformation under the pressure. They had truly become one and fused. There was no need for Wang Zhong to stack the Circuits several times over. The Circuits that seemed to be thick and straight had countless densely packed and meticulous connections. They were connected to almost every divine cell in the body that the Circuits passed through!
It was more effective, concise, and free to do as he pleased.
