"After all, there are still good people in this world!" Sui Xiong was in a much better mood. He smiled and waved at the sky, then focused his attention on the shrine.
He could clearly feel that there was a strong magic power on the shrine, or something similar to magic power. There was also a will that was exactly the same as the fierce and cold will from before, but much weaker. However, it was trapped in his ice magic power and lost its external supply, so it was slowly dissipating.
Of course, Sui Xiong was not willing to let his spoils of war disappear like this. He hesitated for a moment, then reached out his Hand of Soul and grabbed at the shrine.
A purple-black light flashed, and his Hand of Soul was blocked by the will.
"Oh? You have some skills. "Sui Xiong was not surprised, but happy." Let me see how powerful you are! "
The Hand of Soul clenched into a fist and smashed at the shrine.
Once, twice, thrice … The defense of the will was getting weaker and weaker, and finally, it was defeated by his fist. It could no longer resist.
"At this time, you should say 'plunder, plunder', right?"
Sui Xiong laughed, grabbed the will that had fallen into chaos after being defeated, and swallowed it.
After these years of traveling, he had long discovered that his method of devouring souls was not limited to "eating". In fact, as long as there was contact between the two souls, he could directly devour the other through contact.
Compared to devouring through eating, the efficiency of devouring through contact was lower, but it could filter out the impurities in the other's soul, and obtain purer energy.
Most of the impurities were memories and experiences, which could not be said to be worthless, but most of them were worthless. In order to avoid too much influence on himself, every time he devoured, he had to use the power of the soul to remove the useless impurities, which was very troublesome.
If he had not mastered the method of absorbing magic power, he could already use magic power to replenish his soul energy, just the process of eating and removing impurities would have wasted a lot of time.
Therefore, in recent years, he had long stopped using the method of devouring to absorb soul energy, but changed to contact.
But today's spoils were not trivial, and it was worth swallowing and digesting slowly!
And the magic power on the shrine could not be wasted, it was very different from Sui Xiong's ice magic power. If he could analyze and master it, he could have another powerful method, whether it was for self-protection or to control the enemy.
Not to mention the fact that he had already become enemies with the owner of that vicious and cold will. They would definitely clash again in the future. The more he understood his enemy now, the higher his chances of victory in the future.
Therefore, Sui Xiong left with the shrine. To ensure his safety, he left the Black Forest and retreated into the vast sea.
For him, who had the body of a giant jellyfish, the sea was the most suitable battlefield for him to show his power.
When the giant jellyfish sank into the deep sea, in the distant void, in a dark, cold, and quiet world, a majestic figure gazing at the human world shook his head.
"This guy is really cautious." He said, "The ocean is not our domain. If it hides in the deep sea, there's nothing we can do."
"It will come out," a shockingly tall, heavily armored figure said.
"Yes, but at that time, without the guidance of the will on your altar, unless it intersects with you again, we won't be able to find it."
"We'll meet again." A short and old figure said, "With a beginning, there will be subsequent developments and final results. That jellyfish doesn't seem to be short-lived. Sooner or later, it will appear in front of us again. "
"At that time, we must subdue it. Its ability is very useful." The majestic figure said, "Maybe it's worth sacrificing the position of a follower god."
"We're not the only ones watching it. Don't you think that the lion's appearance is very strange?" The old figure reminded them.
The majestic figure was silent for a while and said, "Go and check it out."
"Yes, sir." A voice answered in the darkness.
"Let's leave it at that for now. Our main task now is to compete for the priesthoods of the night and death. This is related to the rise and fall of our Night Gods, so we must pay more attention. "
The voices answered one after another, and then these figures left one after another and went on their own ways.
Time passed slowly.
For the figures who were called "great" and "immortal" by mortals, the passage of time was not something worth caring about. Their concept of time was often measured in one generation, two generations, or even a hundred or two hundred years. But for humans, the situation was completely different.
"Phew … the closed-door training is over!"
When the long-lost blue sky and white clouds appeared in front of him again, Sui Xiong let out a long sigh and couldn't help laughing.
It was really not an easy thing to hide alone in the deep sea, silently digesting the trophies, and silently train and improve his strength.
This was different from the training in the Ice Trench last time. At that time, he would return to the surface of the sea every once in a while to relax. But this time, in order to avoid being targeted by the enemy, he had been hiding in the deep sea, and didn't even dare to go to the shallow sea.
By digesting the defeated willpower, he got a lot of information that he had been dreaming of. Several commonly used languages and characters, some situations of this world's biology, geography and politics, ways to use power, and so on. Most importantly, he knew who his enemy was this time.
The follower god of the Night Gods, the night watchman, Wumian.
A True God!
This was a world where there were gods, monsters, and other unscientific things. It could really be said that there were many strong people in this world. And the strong people who stood at the top of all the strong people were called "True Gods". They were not only unimaginably strong people, but also could absorb the faith of all living beings and integrate the original power of the world. Their magical power was beyond imagination. At least according to the information that Sui Xiong got, they were really strong, super strong, abnormally strong!
The willpower that Sui Xiong got came from the prayers of the White Leaves Village for many years, and mixed with the aftermath of God Wumian's several appearances. So the content was a little messy, and more than 90% of it was praises for God Wumian. If these words were true, then this God Wumian was really unbelievably strong. The "God said, let there be light", "Transcend the sea of bitterness and reach the shore", and "Nature is determined by nature" … were all not worth mentioning in front of God Wumian. Sui Xiong was so lucky that he could escape after provoking God Wumian. He didn't know how many wooden fish he had broken and how much paper money he had saved in his previous life.
Sui Xiong was not stupid. He knew that God Wumian was indeed strong, but he was still scared away by that golden light! Not to mention that Sui Xiong's own magic power of ice could stop him.
The so-called supreme God Wumian was definitely a bluff!
But this God Wumian was indeed not a good person. He was a member of the "Night Gods", an evil god who loved blood and fear. The main god of this God System was the "Emperor of Night", a vampire in the ancient times. All the gods under his command were dark monsters. The night watchman was the guard who guarded the gate of the castle for him before he was apotheosized. He was calm, insidious, and loyal.
From the time he joined the Emperor of the Night until he obtained immortality, this gatekeeper had never left his post and never slacked off in the six hundred years that followed. He didn't rest when he was injured, nor did he sleep when he was tired. He stayed like this until he died.
This kind of unimaginable loyalty won the praise of His Majesty. When the Emperor of Night was apotheosized, he promoted his old subordinate, who was so old and weak that he couldn't even hold a dagger, to a follower god. His name was "Wu Mian", and people called him "Night Watchman, God Wumian".
To put it bluntly, God Wumian was just an old gatekeeper of the Emperor of Night. However, the old gatekeeper should not be underestimated. In the Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, many powerful figures were defeated by the old gatekeeper of the Sutras Depository of Shaolin Temple! God Wumian was not an ordinary gatekeeper either. In his hundreds of years of work, he had killed five or six so-called "legendary strongmen". After he was apotheosized, he had won several wars between gods and could be called the number one general of the Night Gods.
Facing such an enemy was enough to make Sui Xiong feel pressured. Considering that he had the whole Night Gods behind him, Sui Xiong felt that his pressure was not just "great", but "great".
Therefore, he worked harder to practice. On the one hand, by analyzing the magic power of the shrine, he had a deeper understanding of the operation and usage of all kinds of power in this world, so as to expand the scope of his ability. On the other hand, he extracted all the valuable information from the will and tried hard to remember it.
Through this period of training, not only did he improve his control over the power of ice, but he also mastered the power of shadow, death, and protection. In the words of this world, he had now mastered the power of these four domains. Among them, his control over the domain of ice had reached the acme of perfection. As long as there was a suitable opportunity, it was entirely possible for him to further enhance his domain of ice and use it to embark on the immortal path to become a god.
As for how to get this opportunity … according to his guess, he might be able to do it after practicing for another hundreds of years …
Sui Xiong really could not be patient and practice for another hundreds of years. In fact, the dark practice during this period had almost driven him crazy. Therefore, when he felt that his practice had almost reached the bottleneck, he finally could not help but leave the deep sea and go to the land.
Before that, he found an undersea volcano and threw the altar, which had lost its value, into it.
If the information in the shrine was right, then no matter how powerful God Wumian was, he could only rely on the shrine to locate Sui Xiong. Now … he could go to the lava and locate Sui Xiong slowly!
Sui Xiong gave the biggest middle finger to the shrine that was slowly sinking into the lava with his huge tentacles, and then left without looking back. He decided that he would never come back to this volcano!
A few days later, the huge jellyfish returned to the land and stepped into the Black Forest again.
"Human world, I am back!"
