[Spirit Storm: The Ancient Prophet's Heroic Soul unleashes its immense Spirit power, causing severe Spirit damage (treated as Magic damage) to enemies within a large area (radius: 500 meters). The target will be stunned for up to five seconds. The higher the target's Spirit power, the shorter the duration of the stunned state.]
After releasing the Spirit Storm, the Ancient Prophet's Heroic Soul immediately pointed at Li Shuyi again and cast Greater Prophecy. This time, it was a damaging skill!
"Destroy!"
At the same time, the Ancient Prophet's Spirit's HP suddenly decreased by 10%! A beam of destructive Death Ray shot out from the illusory fingertip.
It should be noted that the Berserk Curse on Li Shuyi's body had expired. She was now stunned for five seconds!
Faced with this beam of Death Ray, Li Shuyi immediately used the Mature Green Lotus Seed and decisively activated the Wish Shield granted by the Demonic Ghost Mask. A layer of pale golden light shrouded her body.
Whoosh! The shield turned into countless golden light spots and dissipated. That beam of Death Ray of Destruction, however, did not weaken and still hit Li Shuyi.
In fact, if Li Shuyi's Invincible Slash was more proficient, she could have avoided this single-target spell. However, she was still at the beginner stage, and it took her some time to react to the CC. Therefore, she had no time to dodge and could only activate her shield.
With a grunt, Li Shuyi was knocked back two steps, and her HP suddenly dropped below 50%. However, she did not retreat. Instead, she charged toward the Ancient Prophet's Heroic Soul!
A leader who specialized in Spirit was naturally at her weakest state when her skills were on cooldown! On the other hand, an Agility-based Warrior like Li Shuyi relied on normal attacks to deal damage. Even if her HP was low, as long as her attributes were not weakened, she could still deal high damage.
Bai Xiaowen's spirit was quite close to that of the Ancient Prophet's Heroic Soul. In addition, the duration of Sincere Heart's control was reduced by 15%, so he woke up in less than a second. He immediately activated Blood Rage and the Cold Winter Wand's Multiple Shards. Together with the five Glacier Spikes he had stored, he shot them out.
The Ancient Prophet's Heroic Soul was dead! Soul Collapse's passive self-destruct ability also failed to activate, and all of his remaining soul power was sucked away.
The number on Bai Xiaowen's Black Soul Stone jumped. This Level 10 Boss had given him a total of 200 Growth Points and Soul Essence!
"What a bountiful harvest …"
Bai Xiaowen was overjoyed when he saw that the Black Soul Stone had met the upgrade requirements.
This time, he had killed more than 60 Primordial Heroic Souls in the dusty temple. Each Heroic Soul provided him with 30 growth points. In total, he had more than 1,800 growth points!
In addition to the Sand Scorpion Man's nest and the Naga Aberration, Bai Xiaowen's Black Soul Stone had reached Level 6: 5390/5000. He had accumulated 4,320 Soul Essence! (Note 1)
I can finally reach level 7.
Bai Xiaowen was not upgraded for the time being. After the death of the Ancient Prophet's heroic soul, the stone wall behind it also trembled slightly, and dust rustled down.
A large number of relief sculptures appeared on the stone wall. The lines were simple and powerful, and the curves were beautiful.
There were people, beasts, and Nagas on these relief sculptures. Of course, the most eye-catching one was a gigantic monster with nine heads whose body covered the sky and covered the sun.
"These relief sculptures must have recorded the battle between the Ancient Guardian Sect and the Nagas, as well as the destruction of Amotava," Li Shuyi said.
Bai Xiaowen nodded, but his gaze did not stay on the relief sculptures for long. Instead, he focused on the relief sculptures on the stone wall.
In front of the stone wall, there were three tall stone tablets. On them were densely engraved strange patterns. There were triangles, crosses, squares …
"This should be the inscriptions I need to decipher," Bai Xiaowen said with a sigh.
The tremors on the ground became more and more obvious.
"Is this place going to collapse?" Li Shuyi's face was pale.
"It should be. Therefore, the last step of the mission is to decipher the meaning of these inscriptions before the earthquake, and then escape the dusty temple! "Bai Xiaowen smiled and walked to the first stone tablet.
For Bai Xiaowen, who could master a foreign language in a day, the Guardian Sect's code language system was too simple. As long as he remembered the corresponding code language in front of the first three stone doors, he could translate the inscriptions in front of him into Latin letters and form sentences.
Moments later, Bai Xiaowen walked to the second stone tablet.
The signs of the earthquake were becoming more and more obvious. Some dust and gravel began to fall from the dome.
Li Shuyi was a little nervous, but she held back and did not disturb Bai Xiaowen.
Bai Xiaowen noticed her expression. He walked to the third stone tablet and said with a smile, "Don't worry. There should be a long time before the earthquake happens. At least one or two hours."
Li Shuyi was dumbfounded. "Why?"
"This is a B + level main mission …" Bai Xiaowen smiled. "Generally, the Awakened ones have to go through a lot to come here. The rules of the Spiritual Realm will give them a certain amount of time to decipher the inscriptions. For ordinary people, it will not be less than two hours. Otherwise, the mission will not be completed. Those who can decipher the inscriptions faster will be able to buy more time. "
At this point, Bai Xiaowen pointed at himself. "In terms of deciphering speed, I don't think anyone can decipher the inscriptions faster than me … In fact, these earthquake signs are also a kind of external stimulus. In such a tense environment, some people will erupt with greater potential, while others will panic and their abilities will be greatly reduced. Whether it is to the rules of the Spiritual Realm or to the sages of the Guardian Sect, the former is more valuable. "
"I understand." Li Shuyi took a deep breath. "I'm not nervous."
In less than half an hour, Bai Xiaowen finished deciphering the inscriptions. The Spiritual Realm's rules prompted him:
"Main mission: [Dusty Temple] has been completed and will be automatically submitted."
"In the next 12 days … (omitted)."
Bai Xiaowen looked at the extra time for free exploration and breathed a sigh of relief. Counting the free exploration time saved, he could stay in the Blacktide Realm for nearly 20 days!
"Xiaowen, let's find a way to get out of here quickly," Li Shuyi said.
Bai Xiaowen said, "Don't worry. Just at the end of the third inscription, I got some valuable information. There are good things buried in this temple …" He walked quickly to the stone wall and groped in a corner for a while before he found a prominent round stone.
Bai Xiaowen turned the round stone twice to the left and then three and a half times to the right.
* Rumble … *
On the shaky dome, a series of magic patterns suddenly lit up, and the light gathered into a milky white light shield. Then, the tremors on the dome and the ground stopped.
"This is …"
"This is a reinforcement rune," Bai Xiaowen explained. "By activating the mechanism, it can delay the collapse of the temple. Come on, our time is limited. "
As Bai Xiaowen turned the stone wall, the relief on the opposite side of the stone wall split straight down the middle, and a deep secret chamber appeared in front of them.
Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi walked into the secret chamber together.
In the secret chamber, there was only one stone statue in the shape of the famous "Thinker" sculpture from BC.
The only difference between this statue and the Thinker was that it wore a green-gold crown on its head. Strangely, there was no dust on the crown, as if the endless years had not left a trace on it.
Behind the Thinker stone statue, there was a stone pillar with a round orb shining with white light on it.
"The Orb of Teleportation." Bai Xiaowen was quite knowledgeable about the teleportation devices in the Blacktide Realm. In the secret chamber of the Latent Shadow Maze, there was a Orb of Teleportation that was connected to an unknown area.
Li Shuyi reacted quickly. "This should be a means of escape for us."
"Actually, it's not … But, let's take the green-gold crown first, and then touch the Orb of Teleportation." Bai Xiaowen, who had deciphered the inscriptions, had seen through many secrets of the guardian sect. He quickly stepped forward and reached for the crown.
