Time passed like sand between one's fingers. Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, the blood-maned oxen returned one after another from all directions. However, they could not find the four pillars even after searching hundreds of billions of kilometers.
Wutian was immediately filled with disappointment and helplessness when he heard the news.
Even the army of blood-maned oxen could not find them, so how was he supposed to find them?
After pondering for a while, he took out the Earth Manifestation Token and tried to send a message to the Origin of All Evil. However, it was like throwing a stone into the ocean.
While worried, he put away the Earth Manifestation Token and scanned the blood-maned oxen in front of him. After counting, he discovered that over two thousand oxen were missing.
Wutian asked, "Do you know where the rest of your companions are?"
"I don't know. They don't seem to be in the same direction as us."
All the oxen looked at each other and shook their heads.
"Not in the same direction?"
Wutian was stunned. After thinking carefully, a trace of pleasant surprise suddenly appeared on his face. He hurriedly said, "Tell me the direction you went."
"We're going to the south."
"We're heading towards the southwest."
"We're heading towards the northwest."
"We're going to the west."
"… …"
The Blood Mane Bulls were all talking at once, making a racket. Wutian listened carefully, but in the end, he realized that none of the Blood Mane Bulls were going east.
Wutian clenched his fists and thought to himself, "Little Wu Hao, I estimate that something bad might have happened to these two thousand oxen."
"What do you mean?" Little Wu Hao was puzzled.
Wutian said in a deep voice, "The blood-maned oxen from all directions have returned. Only the ones that went east to search haven't. You know that the blood-maned oxen have always been obedient to me. Under normal circumstances, they definitely wouldn't be late. So, I'm certain that something must have happened to them."
Little Wu Hao's heart sank when she heard that. She urged, "Quickly send the blood-maned oxen into the Star Realm. We'll go east to search."
"Okay."
With a wave of his hand, the more than 40,000 Bloodmane Oxen immediately disappeared. Then, Wutian looked to the east, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. He took a step forward and sped off.
Along the way, he did not discover any other life forms. However, in the surrounding seawater, he vaguely sensed an obscure aura that came from the east.
Following this aura, Wutian traveled as fast as lightning. Three days later, he appeared in front of a huge mountain.
The enormous peak was 30,000 meters tall, and it was completely pitch black like 10,000 year old cold iron. It emitted an ancient and icy cold aura.
When Wutian looked up, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Then, he retreated to a distance of three thousand meters away. When he focused his eyes again, he discovered that the mountain was actually round, and it was the same size from top to bottom. From afar, it looked like a pillar that supported the heavens, and it towered in the sea.
"Could this be the stone pillar that the root of all evil was talking about? But isn't it too big? "
Wutian thought to himself. Then, with a flash, he appeared on the peak of the mountain. When he looked forward, he froze on the spot, but his face was full of surprise.
In front of him, there were also three huge mountains. They were all round, and their sizes were similar to the mountain he was standing on.
Wutian was basically sure that these were the four stone pillars that the root of all evil was talking about!
However, when he calmed down and looked around, he did not find the root of all evil, nor did he see the Bloodmane Oxen.
Then, he stood on the peak of a huge mountain, glanced around, and said to himself, "Little Wu Hao, do you find anything wrong?"
Little Wu Hao said, "There are many things that are wrong. Look, the four stone pillars are standing in a square, and the distance between each pillar is almost exactly the same. This is obviously not natural, but man-made. Look at the center of the four stone pillars. Is there a high platform? "
Wutian looked, and there was indeed a pitch black high platform. It was three feet wide and half a meter tall. It was also square, but there was nothing on the high platform.
No!
Wutian closed his eyes and sensed carefully.
When he opened his eyes, there was a flash of light in his eyes.
He found that the obscure aura came from the high platform!
Little Wu Hao said, "Little Wutian, why don't you go to the high platform and look around? Maybe you can find some clues. But you have to be careful, I feel that this place is a little strange."
"Strange?"
Wutian's pupils shrank, and he let out a long breath. He jumped and landed on the ground below, then walked toward the high platform step by step.
For some reason, the closer he got to the high platform, the more nervous he became. His footsteps also became heavier, as if there was a peerless monster waiting for him in front.
However, when he reached the bottom of the high platform, there was no change at all.
Moreover, at such a close distance, he did not find anything wrong with the high platform.
"Maybe I'm just overthinking, or maybe it's because of the quiet atmosphere here that I'm a little nervous."
Wutian mumbled and stepped onto the high platform.
However, just as his feet touched the high platform, something strange happened.
In his vision, the high platform disappeared, the four stone pillars disappeared, and even the sea of blood disappeared. What replaced it was a blood-red space, and the air was filled with the pungent smell of blood.
Looking at all this, Wutian was shocked. What kind of place was this?
"Is it master?"
At this moment, a confused voice came from behind him.
"Blood Mane Bulls!"
Wutian turned around, and sure enough, not far from him, there were Blood Mane Bulls crouching in the void. There were more than a hundred thousand of them, and the ones leading them were the Ox Emperor, the ten Ox Kings, and a hundred Ox Demon Commanders.
The two thousand Blood Mane Bulls that disappeared were also among them.
With a thought, Wutian's armor disappeared, revealing his true appearance.
Seeing this, the bewilderment in the Blood Mane Bulls' eyes disappeared and was replaced by joy.
However, Wutian could see that they were very weak, as if they were heavily injured.
Wutian hurried to the Ox Emperor's side and asked, "Why are you here? And what is this place? Where's the Root of All Evil? "
The Ox Emperor shook his head and said, "We don't know what this place is either."
The Ox Emperor gave a simple explanation.
The reason why they appeared here was actually the same as Wutian's situation. It was because the Root of All Evil went to check out the surroundings after they walked onto the high platform.
Wutian sized up this strange blood-red space, and then glanced at all the Blood Mane Bulls. He frowned and said, "Are you all injured?"
"None of us are injured."
The Ox Emperor's answer was obviously out of Wutian's expectations.
After listening to the Ox Emperor's explanation, Wutian found out that when they first entered this place, they were also very lively. However, after a few days, they discovered that the life force in their bodies was quietly flowing away.
Moreover, they didn't have any Spiritual Essence to replenish themselves. Therefore, after more than a month, they didn't even have the strength to walk.
Wutian also carefully sensed that the life force in his body was indeed quietly flowing away.
"You've worked hard. Leave the rest to me!"
Wutian smiled at the Ox Emperor. With a wave of his hand, more than one hundred and two thousand Blood Mane Bulls were sent into the Astral Realm. Instantly, this place became very spacious.
However, this action seemed to have aroused the dissatisfaction of this space. A blood-red wave appeared out of nowhere and swept towards Wutian.
His expression changed abruptly. Wutian immediately put on his armor and unleashed his strength to resist with all his might!
However, the blood-red wave was extremely terrifying. It directly sent him flying and then swept him towards the west.
"Destroy!"
However, at this moment, a fierce shout was heard. A little child in blood-red clothes sped over from afar. He pointed his little hand in the air and a ray of blood-red light shot out. Accompanied by a boom, the blood-red wave was actually disintegrated!
"Root of All Evil, are you really going to meddle in my business?"
Wutian was delighted. He stopped and was about to rush towards the Root of All Evil. However, at this moment, a cold voice was heard. It came from the depths of the west.
Wutian looked back in bewilderment, but did not even see a shadow of a ghost.
However, when he heard this voice, the Root of All Evil flew into a rage and shouted, "How many times have I told you? Call me the God of All Evil!"
The cold voice said, "I don't care if you are a demon or a god. If you dare to meddle in my business again, I will kill you in my domain!"
"Is that so? If you don't come out today and fight me for 300 rounds, you are a coward! "
The Root of All Evil shouted. At the same time, he appeared in front of Wutian and sent his voice to warn him, "Be careful, this guy is very scary. If we really fight, I might not be his match"
"Hmph, scram, don't let me see you again"
The person coldly scoffed. A gap suddenly appeared in front of Wutian and the child.
"Go, let's go" the Root of All Evil said.
Wutian still didn't understand the situation, but from the Root of All Evil's tone, he knew that this person wasn't easy to deal with. Without hesitation, he stepped towards the gap.
However, the gap suddenly closed. The cold voice resounded again: "Other than the Root of All Evil, no one can even think about leaving!"
The Root of All Evil said, "No, he is my friend. If we leave, we leave together. Otherwise, I will stay here for the rest of my life"
"Don't go too far"
"If I go too far, what can you do about it?"
"Ahaha, Root of All Evil, I really can't do anything to you. However, I have plenty of time to waste with you. Let us see who can last longer"
The person laughed maniacally and didn't say anything else.
Wutian asked: "Little Fiend, what exactly is going on?"
The Root of All Evil angrily replied: "I told you to call me Little God, don't you have ears?"
Wutian was speechless. What kind of situation is this, yet this little guy still has the mood to care about such trivial matters?
Seeing that, the Root of All Evil said: "Don't worry, although I … might not be able to beat him, he can't do anything to me either. However, you are in trouble, this is his domain, trying to escape is harder than ascending to heaven"
"Domain!?"
Wutian was shocked and asked: "Who is he?"
The Root of All Evil replied: "I'm not too sure either, but my guess is that he might be a powerful Great Evil from the Desolate era"
"An existence from the Desolate era? How is that possible? "Wutian was in disbelief.
The Root of All Evil scoffed: "Look at how scared you are, it's just a Demon Spirit, yet you're already so scared, how useless"
"Demon Spirit?"
Wutian was slightly taken aback, and a trace of anger suddenly gushed out of his eyes. He roared, "First you said he was a Desolate Great Evil, and then you said he was just a Demon Spirit. Little bastard, what do you mean? Are you deliberately trying to trick me?"
