Frankly speaking, this was a very stupid plan. Not to mention the fact that once she went berserk, it was very likely that she would die before Sophia even realized it. Furthermore, Scarlet understood that even if she did not die, there was a 99% chance that Sophia would kill her to vent her anger. However, there was still a 0.1% chance that Sophia would pity her and let her go in the end.
She believed that ever since she became her master's disciple, she had always been respectful and obedient to her master's words. Moreover, she had often felt sincere concern from her serious master. Even though it seemed that this concern came from a kind of selfish desire, it was still a concern, so there must be feelings.
Perhaps her teacher would let her go in the end. As for not being able to cultivate or even becoming a cripple, it was not a big deal. As long as she could see him again, Scarlet was willing to do anything.
This was no different from suicide, and it required more courage. Scarlet spent an entire night to overcome the fear in her heart. At the same time, she was estimating the time that Sophia had mentioned when she left yesterday.
This was a gamble with her life, and the probability of success was less than one in a thousand.
Of course, she could choose to continue wasting time with her teacher, but as intelligent as she was, she could naturally see that her teacher's patience was gradually running out. In fact, she had even mentioned the people around her several times yesterday. Scarlet knew that if she continued to maintain this stalemate, it was very likely that Sophia would try to find a breakthrough from Wang Zhong or her family.
Scarlet had no choice. She closed her eyes and took the initiative to guide her Soul Power to clash in her body and flow in the opposite direction in her meridians.
The intense pain made her sweat profusely. Her survival instincts wanted to stop her actions, but she forcefully dispelled them. She overcame them again and again until she slowly lost consciousness in the intense pain.
She hoped that she could still wake up. She hoped that when she woke up, she would see him.
Wang Zhong's speed had broken through his limits, and he took a step forward. Without any time to think, a great path descended and instantly shattered the distorted Dharma Idol, cutting off the connection between the Dharma Idol and Scarlet. At the same time, he stretched out his hand and pressed on the top of her head. Rich spiritual power spat out from his palm and poured into Scarlet's meridians.
At this moment, his spiritual energy was so dense that wherever it passed, the chaotic spiritual energy that had gone out of control due to Qi deviation was instantly expelled. Gradually, everything calmed down. This girl was really ruthless. She was walking in the direction of seeking death.
After the chaotic Soul Power had been completely expelled, Wang Zhong proceeded to carefully nurse Scarlet's severely damaged meridians, while nervously staring at her expression. After approximately 10 seconds, he saw Scarlet's eyelashes flutter slightly, before lifting her eyelids with some difficulty.
"Wang Zhong." A trace of a smile unexpectedly appeared on Scarlet's face. She knew that when she opened her eyes, she would definitely see him.
Wang Zhong hugged Scarlet tightly. At this moment, nothing was more precious than the smile in front of him. People would always wait until they were about to lose something before they knew how to cherish it.
… …
Outside the Exploration Team Department, thousands of spectators finally recovered from their daze after a long while.
What had just happened had overturned their worldview. Regardless of whether it was Wang Zhong's terrifying strength that had crushed Sophia or the conversation between them, many Great Teachers in the Holy City accepted disciples with their own selfish desires and goals. But to be honest, there were not many who wholeheartedly wanted their disciples to die or even viciously cursed them. Furthermore, this was also a taboo in the Holy Land. Although practitioners paid particular attention to the law of the jungle, the Holy Land was an inheritance of humans. Nothing could be accomplished without rules.
There was a buzz of discussion all around them, but they only talked in low voices and did not dare to make a ruckus. Meanwhile, in front of them, Lan Daier, Grai, and the others were already standing dozens of steps away from Sophia.
They could see the grey ring that was connected to the fragment world quietly lying on the ground. Meanwhile, Sophia was lying beside it, as if she had lost her soul. She was such a fresh and beautiful life. She was unwilling to die, and she was always one step away from successfully passing the Heavenly Calamity. Why? Was she not talented enough? Did she not have enough resources?
No, but why was she the one who failed every time?
Grai stood there, and his body exuded the aura of a Heavenly Soul. He faintly intimidated everyone. He was telling everyone not to act rashly before Wang Zhong returned. Another Heavenly Soul from the Wanderlust Team …
Sophia seemed to have been startled awake by this aura. She looked at Grai. Even an unknown minion like him had become a Heavenly Soul. She could not help but mutter, "Why …"
There was no expression on Grai's handsome face, but he could see through Sophia's soul. "When you think of a way out, you will never succeed."
Sophia felt as if she had been struck by lightning. She had succeeded because of possession, but she had also failed because of possession. Because of this move, she did not dare to take risks and wanted to be more prepared. However, there was never a moment where she was fully prepared for the Heavenly Calamity. What she needed was the courage and decisiveness to throw herself into the jaws of death!
Everyone waited anxiously. After a full ten minutes, the ring on the ground trembled slightly. There was a fluctuation of the rules of space on the ring, and two people appeared in front of everyone.
Wang Zhong supported Scarlet up. Although Scarlet's expression was extremely dispirited, she was still clear-headed and her breathing was stable. With Wang Zhong's support, she was able to walk with great difficulty, causing everyone to heave a sigh of relief.
When she saw Scarlet and Wang Zhong, Sophia, who had been dispirited on the ground, suddenly became energetic. "Scarlet, didn't you always want to know why I accepted you as my disciple? I'll tell you now. When I first saw you, I wanted to possess you today. If not, how could you be worthy?!"
Scarlet, who was in Wang Zhong's arms, trembled. Wang Zhong's murderous intent rose. This woman had left her to fend for herself, but she actually dared to hurt Scarlet. Did she know how much Scarlet cared about her teacher?
But before Wang Zhong could make a move, the extremely weak Scarlet seemed to have sensed his thoughts. She endured her exhaustion and reached out to press Wang Zhong's hand. "Wang Zhong, put me down."
Scarlet looked at the old Sophia, and tears fell from her eyes. During her time in the Holy Land, when she was most helpless in the darkness, it was Sophia who helped her. Because of Sophia's existence, she was able to persevere until Wang Zhong came. It was also because of Sophia's encouragement that she had the courage to persevere and become a woman worthy of Wang Zhong.
"Teacher, I don't hate you. Really, I was too weak." Scarlet tried her best to smile. "Wang Zhong, let's go. I want to go home."
Wang Zhong left with Scarlet, ignoring Sophia. Furthermore, the Holy Land would definitely give an explanation for this matter. This was no longer a personal matter, but it affected the entire Holy Land. Scarlet was not weak, but she was too soft-hearted. However, the world of practitioners was a cruel world.
He wanted to bring Scarlet home.
… …
Wang Zhong and Sophia had caused a sensation in the entire base. Various wild guesses flew around. A newly advanced Heavenly Soul was actually this powerful. This attracted people's attention. As for other things, no one cared about them. However, before these guesses could come to a conclusion, an even more shocking piece of news had appeared on Skylink.
A frontline soldier had used his Skylink to record the battle in the Warrendoor Mountains. At that time, he had probably lost all hope and wanted to record the situation of his enemies as a final contribution. However, he did not expect to obtain the God's Sword.
At the beginning of the video, the 20 Sword Saints and Warlock Saints worked together to form a cage in the air. Alludor and the other five Heavenly Soul Great Teachers attacked together, but the barrier was not damaged at all. The terrifying elemental spell cloud in the air, the cracks on the ground that kept on cracking, the Octopus Saints who were shining with golden light and exuded an extremely powerful aura, as well as the fearful and despairing faces of the Heroic Soul soldiers around them … Although the camera was shaky, everything revealed the desperate atmosphere at that time.
Then, a god-like figure appeared out of thin air. The terrifying and deadly forbidden spells in the air, as well as the barrier that Alludor and the five Heavenly Soul Great Teachers could not break through even after working together, were easily destroyed by this god-like young man with a sword hum. Then, the furious attacks of the Sword Saints and Warlock Saints appeared!
Everyone was very familiar with this young man. They had never seen a Holy Disciple who could cause so much trouble. It was Wang Zhong, a young Holy Disciple who stood out from the masses.
There were 17 Sword Saints and three Warlock Saints!
This was a lineup that everyone would retreat when they saw. The combination of the Octopus people, the Sword Saints and the Warlock Saints had proven that they surpassed the humans. In terms of civilization, the humans could not make it. When they saw this, almost all the soldiers in the Holy Land were in despair. However, they faintly felt that something was not right. They had heard that they had won the battle at the frontlines. This should not be false information.
However, the next scene caused everyone to be dumbfounded. Those who were doubtful, dissatisfied, and unconvinced all shut their mouths at that moment.
With one strike of his sword, he had killed 13 Octopus people and allowed seven to escape. The Octopus people were so scared that they almost exploded. Furthermore, the flying swords that filled the sky at the end made everyone feel as if they were looking at a Sacred Teacher!
This was Wang Zhong, the number one person in the north!
Red Widow only saw the video later on, but this was not important. After seeing Sophia being suppressed, Red Widow obediently waited for her punishment. Run? Where could she run to?
As a Semi-Heavenly Soul, no one understood the rules of the game in the Holy Land better than her. She could look down on Great Teachers as equals, but Wang Zhong was much more powerful than her. He could become a Sacred Teacher and even enter the Patriarch Society.
When it was time to lower one's head, one had to lower one's head and have a correct attitude.
This kind of great achievement could not be measured with ordinary rewards. Furthermore, no one had publicly announced that Wang Zhong would be rewarded for this achievement. In reality, Wang Zhong definitely had other plans. Wang Zhong was fine, but Sophia was definitely in trouble. Even though she was a Great Teacher, she could not save her life. However, not long after she was taken away, Sophia's Soul Sea was exhausted. It was said that she said sorry before she died, but no one knew who she was apologizing to.
Wang Zhong did not care about what the outside world was thinking. To be honest, he was suspicious of the purpose of this Holy Battle. He felt that there was something wrong with the humans and the Octopus people. The humans did not use their full strength, and the Octopus people did not use their full strength either. However, both parties were continuously increasing the scale of the war.
Why did they send people to their deaths?
Previously, uncle Zhang had wanted to say something but hesitated. He did not force him as he had some sense of propriety. However, to him now, protecting Scarlet was more important.
"Sister Daier, the injuries to my Soul Sea and meridians are very serious. I'll have to trouble you," Wang Zhong said sincerely. After all, he was not a professional gourmet. Just now, he had stabilized her injuries and prevented them from worsening. However, it was very troublesome to treat them.
"Don't worry. Leave it to me." Lan Daier nodded her head. Beside her, Ella wanted to say something but hesitated. Wang Zhong was still the same as before, but Ella knew that this newbie in front of her had become an extraordinary big shot.
Mizobudapi civilization, Imperial City …
The Phoenix Shrine had an extremely respected position in the Mizobudapi World. Compared to the Sword Faction, which used military force to help the Octopus people establish their country, the Phoenix Shrine used intelligence to help the Octopus people rule. They were responsible for a wide range of fields, ranging from astrology and prophecy, offering sacrifices to ancestors, passing on civilization, and various biological research, soul research, and so on …
Of course, one should not think that the Phoenix Shrine did not have any military force. This was the cradle of Warlock Gods and Warlock Saints. Regardless of whether it was the Sword Faction, the people, or even some academies established by the Mizobudapi Empire, they all taught elemental studies and had nurtured many Warlock Saint experts. However, the best and the strongest definitely came from the Phoenix Shrine. At the same time, every ceremonial god of the Phoenix Shrine was publicly acknowledged as the strongest Warlock God in the entire Mizobudapi World!
Dhomiguer was the 366th ceremonial god of the Phoenix Shrine in the Mizobudapi civilization. He was now publicly acknowledged as the strongest expert in the Mizobudapi World. Not only were the sparkling tentacles on his head extremely bright, they were also extremely long. Even though they were tied up with jade ribbons, they were so long that they almost reached the ground.
However, this god-like existence, no matter where he went, was currently closing his eyes and resting quietly. He stood outside a large hall and waited quietly. There was an Octopus person guard there who loudly said, "Your Excellency the ceremonial god requests to see His Majesty."
The guard's voice rang out three times before a gentle aura spread out from the main hall.
The Sword Saint, who was dressed in a golden battle robe, respectfully said, "Your Excellency the ceremonial god, you may enter."
Dhomiguer opened his eyes and took a deep breath. It was as if he was adjusting his mental state to the most perfect state. Then, he strode into the hall.
There was a massive and spacious palace. A man wearing a crown and a phoenix robe was sitting on it. He was only over two meters tall and was about the same as an ordinary Octopus person. However, when he sat on the majestic throne, he seemed "extremely tall". This was a hazy feeling. It was as if when one stood in front of him, he would see that he was two or three meters tall and occupied one's field of vision. However, at the same time, even if one was hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of meters away, he would still seem to be right in front of one's eyes. He would completely occupy one's field of vision, causing one to be unable to see anything else.
Even someone as powerful as the strongest Warlock God in the Mizobudapi World felt as if he was being looked down upon when he faced this man. It was as if he was a three-year-old child facing a terrifying War God! He respectfully knelt on the ground.
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
"What's the matter?" The man did not open his mouth or eyes, as if he was really a statue. However, a dignified voice sounded in the hall.
"The Angel of Misfortune has appeared."
However, the Emperor did not reply. The hall was silent for around ten seconds. Then, Dhomiguer suddenly sensed that an even more terrifying pressure than before had returned from beyond the sky. A powerful aura that caused one to panic and could not be resisted suddenly filled the hall.
"Time, location, level." The Emperor opened his eyes, and a brilliant light shot out from his eyes like two scorching suns. "Who has been chosen?" Dhomiguer did not dare to raise his head.
Dhomiguer did not dare to raise his head at all, nor was he able to. He could only kneel and respectfully reply, "The time should have been about two or three months ago. The exact coordinates of the location are unknown. We only know that it should have happened on the battlefield, but it was not because of the success of the sacrifice as planned. It seems that someone accidentally touched it … Therefore, we temporarily do not know who was chosen. However, we can sense that the level of the wings should be rank 4. Correspondingly, the one chosen should be a Saint-tier warrior."
"You can't even confirm whether he is a human or a descendant of the Mizobudapi World? This is information from two or three months ago. Why are you only telling us now? "
Dhomiguer's forehead was filled with cold sweat. There was some dissatisfaction in the Emperor's voice. There was a brilliant rumble of thunder in the hall, as if it was the angry rebuke of a deity. This caused the number one Warlock God of the Octopus people to tremble. He could not help but kneel even lower. His buttocks were raised high, and his face was completely pressed against the ground. This was a stark contrast to the powerful and elegant Warlock God that he was usually.
"I have not done my job well. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
The Emperor's aura was slightly restrained. The astrology was difficult to predict, and astrology and prophecy were just a subject of calculating the natural laws. Even if the answer was right in front of one's eyes, one needed a large amount of calculations and verification. It was inevitable that there would be a delay in time. Furthermore, this was the first time that the Mizobudapi people had taken the initiative to search for wings. They did not have any experience that they could use as a reference.
"Level-4? Heh heh, the Mizobudapi civilization has paid such a high price, but we have fallen to the point where we can only be guided by a level-4 civilization? "The thunder in the hall disappeared, and the Emperor's voice became calm again." What about the humans? Do you have any more accurate information? "
"No, their chosen one has only made a similar judgment." Dhomiguer hesitated before saying, "Your Majesty, should we wait a little longer?"
"No, the guidance of a level-4 civilization is still guidance. Although the starting point is slightly lower, it is still better than being trapped in this peripheral world and looking at the sky from the bottom of a well." The Emperor's dignified voice sounded. "Contact the Patriarch Society of the humans and find the wings. Complete the assessment mission of guidance."
"I will leave this matter to you. You can decide the method, but remember, don't make the same mistake as last time! Even if you have to wait another 300 years, you are not allowed to break the rules of the game that the advanced civilizations have set up. This is our last chance! "
"Yes!"
