Xiao Wu and the others also felt very comfortable. Of course, this was just a false sense of comfort.
This was because the crack in the door had already closed, and the terrifying pressure that had pressed them down had dissipated.
It was like the feeling of suddenly sitting on the ground after a strenuous exercise. Their bodies were relaxed, so they felt comfortable. However, in the depths of their hearts, boundless fear, anger, and anxiety immediately rose.
Solomon had been sucked into the crack in the door! What was that?!
Without thinking, Micah flipped over and jumped up from the ground. At the same time, he directly slammed into the closed wall. The black radiance appeared on the surface of his body, and his power was infinitely pushed to the maximum by him. He was like a black cannonball.
Rumble rumble rumble …
The entire shrine shook slightly from the terrifying impact, but it was just a tremor. On the other hand, Micah's arm, which was smelted from the black radiance gold, was slightly deformed from the impact. Then, his entire body was violently sent flying. The wall was intact, and the gap that had already closed did not show any signs of being knocked open.
The wall was undamaged, and the closed gap did not show any signs of being knocked open. However, Micah had already fainted. Enoch took out his dagger, and Xiao Wu was eager to give it a try. Stark's hair stood on end, and a wild aura overflowed from his body. They had all felt the terrifying aura from the other side of the door, but it did not affect their determination to break open the door and save Solomon. They did not have the so-called foolish thoughts of loyalty, nor did they swear to follow him to the death, nor did they have the restriction of freedom. They only had the instinct in their hearts, because they firmly believed that only Solomon could bring them to a wider sky.
A terrifying wave of energy condensed behind the three of them.
"I'll do it!"
It was Holmdi. He had already placed his hand on his giant bow. The terrifying wave of energy was emitted from the giant bow. Although he was only at the Peak Heroic Soul Stage, with the help of this legendary divine bow of the Yi Race, he was even stronger than Micah in terms of attack power in an instant! And if the archer was willing to sacrifice his life …
Surging Soul Power burned in his Soul Sea, and Holmdi's gaze was extremely firm and clear. The dim bow seemed to have awakened some kind of resonance, and it felt like it was being controlled by someone. The ordinary bowstring shone with a layer of golden light. Holmdi placed his hand on it, and his fingers were instantly squeezed by the bowstring until they bled. However, he didn't seem to feel any pain at all, and the bowstring was slowly pulled back. Solomon was the soul of the dandelions, and he was their sustenance in life. No one could offend him!
But before he could fully draw it, a large hand had already pressed down on his shoulder. Divine power was transmitted, and Holmdi's raised hand was firmly pressed down. His churning Soul Sea calmed down under the suppression of the Divine Power, and the huge bow's agitation also stopped.
Kai appeared beside Holmdi, holding a blood-stained scroll in his hand. It was the scroll of the Warlock Saint from before. There were also wounds on Kai's body. After all, a Warlock Saint was a Warlock Saint, and he was different from the Sword Saint they had chased before. When he unleashed his full power, he had the enhancement of a magical artifact, and the two of them were almost equal in strength. However, the terrifying aura that suddenly emanated from the shrine had shocked the Warlock Saint, and Kai seized the opportunity.
When experts at this level fought with their lives on the line, even a slight distraction was enough to take their lives.
"Instructor!"
"The Young Master has been sucked in by that door!"
Seeing Kai, everyone seemed to have seen a life-saving straw, and they spoke hurriedly.
They thought that Kai would definitely attack the giant wall immediately, but they didn't expect to see a deep sense of fear and calmness on his face. The stronger one was, the more they would feel how terrifying that power was. When that terrifying pressure spread just now, Kai had clearly felt it. He knew how to weigh the pros and cons. That was definitely not an existence that he could fight against. Even the Sacred Teachers in the Holy City might not be able to do so!
Kai was very clear about this.
Putting aside whether it would be useful to attack the giant wall by force, even if it was useful, if they really opened this door and faced the wrath of such a powerful expert, the only outcome that awaited them would be a meaningless death. They might even harm Solomon instead.
After all, the other party had only dragged Solomon in and did not take the lives of Xiao Wu and the others. In fact, it was hard to say whether they were friends or foes. The best thing to do now was to wait quietly. As for whether Solomon was dead or alive, whether this was an opportunity or a disaster, it all depended on fate.
"I'll stay here and wait. You guys bring Micah out." He waved his hand slightly. "Guard the entrance of the shrine. If the Holy City Army or other exploration teams rush in, tell them that we have already broken into the shrine. The Young Master suddenly had an epiphany and is in seclusion here. No one is to disturb him! If anyone doesn't listen … kill them! "
The giant door closed, and the surroundings were pitch-black.
The force that had pulled him in had also dissipated, but the power that surrounded his body had become even stronger. It was as if he was facing the various gods of the universe, looking down on a lowly ant like him.
"Kneel!"
A majestic voice echoed in the darkness.
Kneel! Kneel! Kneel!
The voice only shouted once, but Solomon felt as if this voice had been directly engraved in his mind and even in the depths of his soul. The boundless majesty continued to reverberate in the depths of his heart and fiercely hit his soul. It was as if if he knelt a second later, he would be dismembered into thousands of pieces and consigned to eternal damnation!
But Solomon did not kneel.
That terrifying voice could easily conquer his body and his will, but it could not conquer his self-esteem and pride.
He could kneel and worship a seven-star Great Teacher as his teacher because of temporary benefits, but he would never kneel and worship an unknown and terrifying creature because of fear, even if this creature was 10,000 times more powerful than a seven-star Great Teacher. This was the difference between being active and being passive.
He stood there indifferently. He did not say anything to resist the voice, nor did he obey it. He only silently endured the ruthless and terrifying impact in the depths of his heart. He looked straight ahead coldly and confronted the majesty in the darkness.
The reverberation gradually dissipated, and the majesty in the darkness seemed to have a hint of interest and doubt.
"Do you want to die? Mortal. " The voice sounded again, but it did not directly hit his soul like before. It sounded like a normal conversation. Of course, even if it was a normal conversation, the voice was so vast that it seemed boundless. It was as if this darkness was connected to the entire universe, while the voice drifted over from the other end of the universe.
Solomon's lips moved. His body was slightly stiff, and he could not speak fluently. In reality, his entire body had trembled from the interrogation of his soul. However, due to his self-esteem, he did not realize that this was the first time he had felt such terrifying power ever since he had advanced to the Semi-Heavenly Soul Stage. The other party's tone was very arrogant, but it was not enough to scare him.
He adjusted his voice slightly. His voice was still steady and powerful. "Tell me, what do you want?"
If the other party wanted to kill him, he did not need to go through a lot of trouble. The people outside were no match for him. Since he did not want to kill him, he definitely had something to ask of him. Then, there was room for negotiation. Furthermore, he had to be imposing in order to negotiate!
The other party did not reply. There was silence in the darkness for a few minutes. Then, a ray of light shot out from an extremely far distance in the darkness and arrived in front of him.
The light was a projection. An illusory figure gradually appeared.
It was an illusory humanoid creature with long and slender limbs. However, his facial features could not be seen clearly. He was in an illusory haze and looked like a shadow. Furthermore, there was a pair of massive wings on the back of this humanoid creature! There were no feathers on the wings, but they were crystal clear and were engraved with countless densely packed runes.
"You are very intelligent and have a firm will. Among the lowly creatures from a low-leveled civilization, you are considered not bad."
The black figure with wings spoke. His voice was exactly the same as before, but it was not as far away. Instead, it was very close. Although it was a compliment, the imposing aura was still present. It was as if he was high above and looked down on everyone.
He stretched out his hand, and Solomon felt his body being sucked in involuntarily. Then, an incomparably large hand pressed on his head. He could feel a will being transmitted from the large hand, connecting to his memories.
Solomon did not resist. He knew that it was useless to resist. He simply looked on coldly and tried his best to monitor the consciousness that was connecting to his memories.
That consciousness was extremely vast and unimaginable. Even though he was in his own knowledge sea, Solomon felt that he could not resist it at all. As long as the other party thought about it, his soul and knowledge sea would probably collapse instantly.
A declining empire, a rising hope … Holy Land, Mizobudapi, a level-three civilization, space-time ability …
A series of memories were read. Solomon did not know what the other party wanted to see, but he could generally feel that the other party was interested in the parts of his memories and some keywords.
This continued for about 10 seconds. Then, the large hand lowered, and the terrifying consciousness also retreated from his knowledge sea.
"The space-time ability accelerated the opening time set on the Golden Wall. No wonder it could open the door without a key. It has been so many years, but it is still so weak." The black figure lightly muttered to himself. It seemed that Solomon's memories had solved some of the doubts he had. "Human from the Holy Land? A broken island ship? An amusement park planet. Tsk tsk, how fun. "
Solomon secretly remembered every word that the black figure had said. Every word that such an existence said probably hid some shocking secret. However, it was a pity that the black figure did not continue to talk to himself. He did not have any intention of communicating with Solomon or revealing any information.
After pondering for a moment, the black shadow turned his gaze back to Solomon.
"I don't like to be randomly disturbed by others, and I don't like to come here for nothing," he calmly said. "Now, you have two choices.
"Die, or become my emissary and rule this world!"
"This world?"
"The human world and the Mizobudapi World that you are conquering. I will continuously bestow power upon you, but the prerequisite is that you perform well enough."
There was a hint of ridicule in the black figure's tone, as if he was playing a game. However, Solomon did not doubt him. The terrifying power that the other party had displayed when he had opened the door was still fresh in Solomon's memory. That was a terrifying existence that was at least at the level of a Sacred Teacher. He could not imagine their world!
Bestow enough power upon him? Would he allow him to control the human world and even the world of the powerful Octopus people? Wasn't this what he had been yearning for?
Solomon was excited, but he also felt a faint sense of uneasiness. There was no such thing as a free lunch in the world. The other party definitely had something to ask of him.
"What do I need to do?"
"Help me collect the faith of this world." The shadow actually smiled. "Of course, as well as delicious souls."
"How do I do that?"
The shadow casually waved his hand, and a divine sword appeared out of thin air. It appeared in front of Solomon. This was a peculiar divine sword. The hilt of the sword was carved with lifelike nine snake heads. Upon closer inspection, he realized that the carved snake heads were like living creatures and emitted the aura of living creatures!
"Build a temple and carve a totem on it so that people worship it sincerely." The shadow paused and said rather casually, "Use these nine snake heads as the symbol of the totem. I want their faith!"
"The sword is the medium between you and me. The more temples you build and the more believers you absorb, the stronger the power I will bestow upon you will be. All of this can be passed on through the divine sword. As for souls … Devour as many delicious souls as you can. I will naturally sense them. "
Temples? War?
Solomon seemed to have sensed something. He thought of the temple of the Octopus people and the totem of the phoenix. This shadow had been released from the temple of the Octopus people. Could there be some sort of connection between them?
The shadow did not answer Solomon's question. Instead, it calmly said, "Drip your blood on the divine sword, and the contract will naturally be formed."
Solomon did not hesitate. His dignity was just a bargaining chip. Even if he had to sell it, he had to sell it for a higher price. When faced with this kind of choice, he would not hesitate at all.
When he held the sword, he could already sense the massive power that came from the sword. Perhaps this was just a very casual charity from that existence, but it was already unimaginable. It felt vast and boundless, but unfortunately, it was blocked by a seal and could not be transmitted to his body. If he could use this power, he would probably be able to break through to the Heavenly Soul Stage with a single thought. Even surviving the major Heavenly Calamity would not be a problem for him.
The word 'indecisive' did not exist in his dictionary. Solomon was very clear about what he needed. As for the things that the other party wanted, as long as he had power, it would be as easy as lifting a finger for him.
He placed his hand on the blade of the sword. He did not even need to deliberately cut it. He simply moved his body closer to the blade. The sharpness of the blade easily cut through Solomon's skin. Blood dripped from his hand and dripped onto the blade of the sword. Then, like a sponge absorbing water, it was absorbed by the sword. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared without a trace.
Boom!
It was as if he had opened a seal that had been sealed for a long time. The seal that had blocked him from the sword suddenly shattered, and endless energy was transmitted from the sword.
Solomon felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His entire body throbbed, and he felt that every inch of his skin and even every cell was filled with power. His body felt light and floated in the air. This only lasted for three to five seconds.
Boom!
Without any warning, a ball of Karmic Fire burned in his heart.
Minor Heavenly Calamity!
