The blood-red shield was as still as a mountain. It was like an iron plate that covered the sky and the earth, blocking the entire Mysterious Heavenly Glacier. An evil, violent, and bloodthirsty aura surged out like a raging sea, and it couldn't help but overflow, enveloping a radius of 500 kilometers.
The demonic blood-colored mark on the shield shrunk unsteadily. The blood-colored lines wriggled like earthworms, as if they were living creatures!
Hundreds of dead Ghostface people and blood droplets that splashed in space gathered like raindrops, making the shield look extremely evil, as if it was the source of all evil in the world.
The sharp tip of the Thunder God Spear stabbed into the shield, right in the middle of the blood mark. The silver spear was shaking, as if it was being invaded by some evil consciousness, cracks appearing on it.
No matter if it was the Ghostface people or the warriors from the Medicine and Vessel Pavilion, they were all silent at this moment. Their gazes were all focused on the shield, their faces filled with shock, fear, and anxiety. No one knew what was happening.
On the Mysterious Heavenly Glacier, Fu Wei's pale face was extremely solemn. Her brows were furrowed as she stared at the blood shield. No one knew what she was thinking about.
The proud son of the Ghostface people, Durin, had a pale face. His sharp eyes scanned the surroundings, as if he was searching for something.
Struggling in his heart, Durin took a deep breath and said to the dark void respectfully, "Who is interfering with the affairs of the Ghostface people?"
His soul consciousness spread out, trying to enter the blood shield. However, as soon as his soul consciousness touched the shield, his consciousness became distorted, as if he had fallen into a swamp that he could not escape from. His soul energy was depleting rapidly.
Du Lin's heart sank to the bottom. He anxiously looked at the shield that had appeared out of nowhere. He felt that he couldn't advance or retreat.
No one answered him.
The blood-red shield seemed to be ownerless. Even with Du Lin's realm and thoughts, he couldn't locate the owner of the shield. His face became more and more uneasy. He nervously looked around, his eyes more and more panicked.
Pssst pssst pssst!
Wisps of exquisite lightning sputtered from the tip of the Thunder God Spear and exploded, but they were neutralized by the blood aura.
The short spear trembled even more violently …
Du Lin finally felt uneasy. The silent and dark void made him feel uneasy. It was as if there was a pair of evil and weird eyes watching his every move in the dark.
"I, the Ghostface people, will remember." Inhaling a deep breath, Durin spoke out of the blue. With a thought, he extended his hand and made a grabbing motion in the air. The Thunder God Spear transformed into a bolt of lightning and disappeared into his green sleeve.
"Let's go!" Durin suddenly shouted, flying towards the tiger shark battleship he was on.
All the members of the Ghost Mark Clan were surprised. They looked at him inexplicably, their faces skeptical.
The three elders of the Ghostface people hesitated and exclaimed, "Young master!"
Durin's face was as calm as water as he shouted coldly, "I told you to leave! Didn't you hear me?! "
The expressions of the three elders of the Ghostface people changed, but they did not dare to say anything. They gave their orders anxiously.
One by one, the Ghostface people scattered away like fish in the water. All of them were silent, as if there was a huge rock in their hearts. They looked at the floating blood shield in awe, and silently returned to their battleships. Without saying a word, they silently left as Durin's battleship started up.
All the guards of the Medicine and Vessel Pavilion were shocked. Seeing the Ghostface people retreating like the tide, they suddenly cheered in joy.
On the Mysterious Heavenly Glacier, Fu Wei had a complicated expression. She looked at the blood shield and was stunned for a while. Suddenly, she bowed and said, "Thank you, senior, for your help."
She did not know who was controlling the blood shield.
Whoosh!
A beam of blood-red light shot out into the vast outer space. The blood-red shield shrank rapidly and disappeared along with the beam of blood-red light in the blink of an eye.
…
Fifty thousand miles away.
Durin's face was dark and gloomy. He swallowed the red pellets, his breathing heavy.
The three elders of the Ghostface people stood quietly by him. Their faces were complicated, and no one knew what they were thinking.
"... Young Master," one of them called.
Du Lin seemed to wake up from his deep thoughts. He subconsciously took a deep breath and said with an ashen face, "It is of a much higher grade than the Thunder God Spear!"
The three elders of the Ghostface people were frightened.
They finally understood why Durin insisted on retreating.
The Original Incipient Grade weapons had seven levels. The Thunder God Spear was at most a level 2 Original Incipient Grade weapon. However, to the Ghostface people, it was still the top treasure, the ultimate weapon. In the entire Agate, its name could shake the sky.
However, the level of the giant blood shield that appeared out of nowhere was much higher than the Thunder God Spear. What kind of terrifying character could have such a weapon?
No wonder why the Young Master had retreated after not getting a response. He didn't even care about what Zuo Lou had asked him to do. He didn't even care about the Sacred Texts anymore.
In Agate, there was an unwritten rule. The higher the level of the divine weapon, the higher the realm and competence of its owner. Most of the warriors who owned the Original Incipient Grade weapons were at Peak of Ethereal God Realm or Incipient God Realm.
If their realm and competence weren't high enough, they couldn't release the full power of the divine weapon or protect the weapon.
Since the shield was at such a high level, its owner must be the most intimidating existence in this world. Durin couldn't feel the aura of the other on the blood shield. He assumed that the realm and power Upanishad of the one who had attacked him were much higher than what he could sense.
Shi Yan was frightened. He knew that he should leave immediately. To him and the three elders of the Ghostface people, it was a wise decision.
"Each Original Incipient Grade weapon is recorded in the Medicine and Vessel Pavilion. The higher the level of the weapon, the more detailed the description in the Medicine and Vessel Pavilion is." Durin's voice was hoarse and tired. "But that blood shield... I have never heard or seen it before. I don't know its origin or who owns it. I don't want to risk the Battleship Shark of the Crocker Family and our lives! "
"Young Master, you're wise!" The three elders of the Ghostface people were shaken. They said respectfully.
No matter how they looked at it, Durin's decision was impeccable. The expert hiding in the dark had a divine weapon that was even more powerful than the Thunder God Spear. In their eyes, he was a terrifying existence at the Peak of Incipient God Realm. This kind of character was enough to sweep their Battleship Shark and grind all of them into ashes!
The other had stopped them on the Mysterious Heavenly Glacier. He didn't want to kill them. In their eyes, it was the other's attitude. It was just a warning to let them know the situation...
If they didn't know the situation, the next attack would be a crushing one!
Durin was smart. He proactively retreated. He was willing to give up the Sacred Texts to protect himself and his family. He didn't care if he made Zuo Lou angry.
"Send a message to the Great Elder. Tell him all the details of our battle and emphasize on the blood-colored shield. I think … he might be able to see some signs." Durin waved his hand helplessly. He was exhausted. He had traveled thousands of miles to come here, but he didn't get the Sacred Texts. Moreover, he had offended Fu Wei and left hundreds of dead members of his clan. To him, it was an unprecedented blow.
The three elders silently retreated, their faces filled with dejection and sorrow.
…
In the immense sea of stars, Fu Wei retrieved the Mysterious Heavenly Glacier. She paled and returned to the deck of the battleship.
The masters of the Medicine and Vessel Pavilion scattered around the deck to greet her in silence.
Fu Wei's graceful body was covered in sweat. She tidied her cascading long hair. Her bright eyes were complicated. Her line of sight raked through the warriors on the deck. All of a sudden, Fu Wei screamed, "Where's Shi Yan? I saw him up there a moment ago. "
"Not long after you and Durin fought, he sneaked out of the cultivating room," answered An Yun.
Fu Wei furrowed her bold brows. She thought for a while and then turned to look at the dark void where the giant blood shield had disappeared. She said softly, "We met our benefactor."
An Yun nodded gently. "I don't know which precursor had helped us. Otherwise, we wouldn't have had a good ending this time. Anyway..." She paused for a while, her face skeptical. "... That shield isn't recorded in the Original Incipient Grade divine weapons books of our Medicine and Vessel Pavilion."
Fu Wei's soft body shivered. "You don't have it? Are you sure? "
An Yun nodded again. "I'm sure it isn't."
Fu Wei's bright eyes sparkled. Her mind was spinning and spinning. She was lost in thought for a long time.
"That shield... has a much higher level than the Thunder God Spear," said Fu Wei after a while.
An Yun was shocked. He asked instinctively, "What level?"
Fu Wei shook her head. "I can't sense it. It seems to be beyond my knowledge. I think even the current Pavilion Master of our Medicine and Vessel Pavilion doesn't have the ability to refine it. The magical formation on the shield seems to be alive. It's changing every second. I can't see the mysteries behind it. "
An Yun was frightened.
She knew Fu Wei's attainment in blacksmithing. She was the rare genius of the Medicine and Vessel Pavilion in the past ten thousand years. She was the one who had the highest chance to become the Pavilion Master. Many Elders approved of her knowledge and understanding of blacksmithing. They even thought that her blacksmithing skills were better than most of the Elders.
If she couldn't see the mysteries of the shield formation, it was enough to prove that the giant blood shield that had appeared out of nowhere was a rare divine weapon in this world.
"Perhaps... it doesn't belong to our Agate." Fu Wei pondered for a while and then said.
An Yun was more baffled.
"Doesn't belong to our Agate. Doesn't belong to our Agate..." Fu Wei was baffled for a while. She seemed to remember something. Her blue eyes brightened as she mumbled, "... That man isn't recorded in our Medicine and Vessel Pavilion. He shouldn't be from our Agate. Could it be?"
She immediately shook her head and laughed at herself. She secretly cursed herself for being overly suspicious. Perhaps she was too tired to connect two things that could not possibly be connected.
How could a divine weapon that was more powerful than the Thunder God Spear fall in the hands of an Original God Realm warrior?
It wasn't realistic.
Even if a warrior at the Original God Realm had such a divine weapon, he couldn't resist one strike from Durin. This was common sense.
Using her common sense, she knew that she was overthinking. She mocked herself for being too tired. Thus, she didn't think further.
