The appearance of the Temple Priest attracted everyone's attention.
Wang Teng turned his head to take a look. His pupils constricted. An intermediate general-stage martial warrior!
This so-called Temple Priest was actually a 12-star intermediate general-level warrior!
"Silence!"
The Temple Priest stopped on the stone steps. His expression was calm, as if he was a member of the clergy who had no desires. His gaze swept across the crowd and his calm voice suddenly rang out.
The surroundings instantly quieted down. Everyone looked at the Temple Priest.
"Everyone, please follow me up the mountain." The Temple Priest saw that everyone had quieted down and continued speaking.
After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked up the stairs.
Everyone looked at each other and followed one after another.
"Let's go." Uther snorted coldly and led the young warriors up the stone steps.
Foster, Quincy, and the others glared fiercely at Wang Teng. They hadn't fought yet, so they couldn't back down.
Then, they followed Uther's footsteps.
Before the curly-haired Martha left, she turned around and looked at Wang Teng. She winked at him with an extremely flirtatious gaze.
Wang Teng: "…"
"Little brother, you're quite lucky with women!" Parrick patted Wang Teng's shoulder and chuckled. "From my experience, this girl looks coquettish on the surface, but she's actually still a virgin."
Wang Teng: "…"
So, what did this have to do with him?
"You must be feeling very good right now, right?" Tantai Xuan looked at him and chuckled.
Wang Teng saw Tantai Xuan's unfriendly gaze and put on a straight face. He said righteously, "What are you talking about? I don't have any good feelings towards that kind of bad woman."
"Like hell I'll believe you." Tantai Xuan snorted coldly and turned to walk up the stairs. "Let's go!"
"You're quite lucky with women." Zhu Yunshao held back his laughter and patted Wang Teng's shoulder.
Ji Xiuming walked past him and suddenly stopped in his tracks. He said with a calm expression, "Good luck!"
"Take her down and win glory for the country," Luo Cheng said with a serious expression.
Mu Zhiguo also nodded, seemingly agreeing with Luo Cheng's words.
"…??" Wang Teng.
What do you mean by winning glory for the country?
You actually call this kind of thing fighting for the glory of the country? Do you still have any shame?
Wang Teng was speechless. He didn't expect that even Luo Cheng and Mu Zhiguo, two people of few words, would come to tease him.
You guys are actually such passionate men!
Wang Teng was furious. He followed the crowd up the stone steps and went up the mountain.
"Speaking of which, how high is this Sacred Mountain? Why do we still have to climb up?" he asked as he walked.
"No one knows the height of the Holy Mountain," Parick said.
"Is it because of Runes? Someone used the power of the Runes to extend this mountain, "Wang Teng said.
"You saw through it?" Parrick was surprised.
"Is it difficult?" Wang Teng glanced at him.
"…" Parick felt that Wang Teng was bragging, but he didn't have any evidence.
However, the feeling that Wang Teng gave him was indeed becoming more and more extraordinary. This guy didn't cower in the slightest when facing the prodigies of the Bald Eagle. He could even suppress them.
Now, he was showing his insight in the Runes. This wasn't something that an ordinary martial artist could do.
As they spoke, everyone arrived at a platform surrounded by clouds.
Wang Teng stepped on solid ground and looked around.
The surrounding mountain ridges were all covered in white snow, but there was no snow here, only a faint mist drifting in the air.
When the clouds dispersed, ancient buildings appeared before everyone. There were dilapidated fences and dilapidated walls. There were many huge stones lying around. There were also many broken statues. Some of them had collapsed, and some only had half of them left.
Wang Teng was stunned. Why did this place look so dilapidated?
"There was a great battle here. Many things were destroyed. However, the previous rulers of the Sacred Mountain kept these things as a warning to the future generations," Parrick said.
"Great battle?" Wang Teng looked at him in confusion.
"This was a long time ago. I don't know much about it," Parrick said.
"Then why did you bring us here?" Wang Teng asked.
"Look over there." Parrick pointed forward.
Wang Teng looked in the direction of his finger. In the clouds, a huge arena was faintly discernible between the broken stones and pillars.
"You will compete there," Parrick said.
"I didn't expect to return to this place after so many years." Tantai Xuan looked around and sighed.
She raised her head and looked at the sky above her. She was reminiscing.
Wang Teng looked in the direction she was looking at. His eyes narrowed. He saw that between the mountain paths above, ancient buildings were emerging. They were zigzagging upwards.
These buildings were very simple. They were typical pillared buildings.
White marble columns with grooves seemed to be propping up the dome, inexplicably giving people a sense of solemnity and grandeur.
However, each building was different. They had their own characteristics. Some were square, some were round …
If one were to count them carefully, one would find that there were exactly twelve buildings.
At the end of these buildings, on the top of the mountain, there was a huge statue of a goddess.
The statue was wearing a battle robe and a crown. It held a shield and a strange crescent-shaped weapon in its hands. It looked into the distance. It was extraordinary!
At the same time, behind the statue, there was an extremely magnificent building. It stood on three levels of stone steps. The jade steps, huge pillars, painted eaves, and relief sculptures were everywhere. It was a magnificent sight.
Wang Teng was shocked. He didn't expect the Sacred Mountain to be such a place.
Those buildings, those statues, they were indeed worthy of the name of the Sacred Mountain!
The others obviously noticed the strange scene above. Many of them couldn't help but exclaim, expressing their shock.
Seeing everyone's reaction, Parrick's lips curled into a proud smile.
Too many people showed such expressions when they saw this temple for the first time. He was already used to it.
"That's the temple!" he said to Wang Teng.
"Temple!" Wang Teng murmured in his heart. He asked curiously, "What's in there?"
"The greatest secret of the Sacred Mountain is kept there. At the same time, all the lords of the Sacred Mountain live there. Lord Priest, Lord Sage … and even Lord Saintess," Parrick said with reverence.
Wang Teng's eyes narrowed. There was a lot of content in these words.
If the Priest was an intermediate warlord, then what about the Sage and Saintess? Wouldn't they be even stronger?
How many people would there be?
"What about the 12 buildings?" Wang Teng shifted his gaze and asked again.
"Those are the Twelve Zodiac Temples. There are twelve powerful Guardian Paladins in there. If an ordinary person wants to go to the temple, they have to defeat them," Parrick said.
"Paladins? How strong are they?" Wang Teng asked.
"They are at least at the lower warlord level. The higher they go, the stronger they are." Parrick didn't hide anything. These were things that everyone knew.
However, not many people knew the true strength of the Paladins.
