The sword energy flashed, and the lightning was like a sea.
Everything within a radius of tens of thousands of meters, including the trees, flowers, and plants, magical beasts, and animals, was instantly crushed into powder.
The immense pressure was like a mountain falling from the sky.
Besides William, everything else had disappeared. The ground had sunk by tens of meters.
When they clashed, the countless spatial rifts they created were comparable to the battle prowess of a Saint.
Fortunately.
Both of them did not continue fighting. Their attacks seemed to be probing each other.
But after a short separation, Sword God Soderos' words made William understand why the two of them would fight each other the moment they met.
"Thunder God with a broken arm, you're still alive … What a pity." Soderos glanced at Thor's left hand.
As soon as he heard this, Thunder God almost exploded in anger. Fortunately, he understood that this wasn't the place for a duel, so he just sneered, "Hmph, I really don't know which idiot's weapon dropped a level of quality after I hammered it down, and he still has the nerve to criticize me?"
Soderos narrowed his eyes, and the 'Eternal Destruction' sword in his hand trembled slightly. He seemed to know that the enemy in front of him was mocking him. He wanted to unleash an unimaginable amount of sword energy to kill the enemy.
William coughed lightly and said, "We're all on the same side. Let's talk nicely. This is the territory of the Lord of the Underworld. Even if we don't have to be careful, we should at least give him some face."
"Hmph!"
"Hehe …" Both of them did not attack. Instead, they sneered and made some sounds of disdain. They did not care if the Lord of the Underworld would wake up.
But.
They did not dare to fight anymore.
Because so many years had passed. Who knew if the Lord of the Underworld would give them face?
Soderos looked at William again and scanned his left and right hands. He said in a deep voice, "Lad, I've said what I need to say. Just be careful here. In the future, when you go to the Rune continent, if anyone finds trouble with you, just tell them my name!"
After he finished speaking.
Soderos turned his head and transformed into a ray of sword light before vanishing.
Thunder God Thor smirked and looked at William with ill intentions. He gestured for him to shut up, warning him not to talk nonsense outside. Otherwise, even Moses would not be able to protect him. Then, Thor turned and left.
Obviously.
The encounter between the two of them brought out very bad memories in their hearts.
William did not know why they had fought in the first place. Not only had the Thunder God's left hand been cut off, but 'Eternal Destruction', which was ranked first in terms of lethality, had also dropped a grade.
But the prince could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Because when the two of them fought, they gave him a lot of pressure.
Although the battle strength of both sides just now was not as strong as when he activated his Unparalleled, it was still comparable to when he used the Power of the Saint Spirit, which increased all his attributes by 45%.
"Interesting, but not invincible," Ye Futian said. William knew that the two of them were really angry. Their attacks just now were not that simple. Thinking about it, his current level was not too high. That meant that he was not too far off from them.
Moreover, he had his father's blood essence as his trump card. If he really fought with them, it was hard to say who would win.
William didn't hesitate. He transformed into a beam of rainbow light and disappeared. He didn't want his enemies to track him down because of the battle here.
After an unknown amount of time.
William flew aimlessly. He killed seven or eight awakeners and gained a lot of experience. Then, he saw a huge city built on countless corpses!
That was right.
From afar, the city was lifeless. There were no signs of life. But there were humanoid creatures walking in the city. It meant that this was a dead city made up of the dead.
More importantly, the dead could walk and talk on the streets. This meant that all the dead in this city were awakeners.
Because the non-Awakener Kings were usually in a deep sleep when they couldn't touch living people and were not under the command of an Awakener. For example, the hundreds of millions of skeletons outside the city were all sleeping … waiting to wake up.
"How is this a f * cking city? It's obviously a giant tomb built on corpses. I don't know why these people want to start a war. Is it because the feeling of not being able to die is too uncomfortable?" William looked from the sky and could not help but suck in a cold breath.
Because on this battlefield where countless creatures had died, there were too many auras of different races. Colossal creatures that were thousands of meters tall could be seen everywhere.
And near this city, there was a blood-red river flowing. Its source and direction were unknown.
It was a branch of the Styx River.
William did not dare to go close to the Styx River, which was thousands of meters wide. He could feel many strange auras in the Styx River. If he went close, the existence in the Styx River might pull him in.
But after discovering the branch of the Styx River and the dead city, he thought that he was almost at the center of this small world.
He took a deep breath and used several magic scrolls to shield himself from the auras of the living. Then, he took the risk and flew to the city gate.
If he wanted to understand this place, he would have to stay for a long time. It was more convenient to go through the local natives.
Soon.
William came to the city gate, which was guarded by several dead Grandmasters. He did not show any identification, nor did he intend to speak. He just exuded the faint aura of a Legendary, and walked in curiously.
"Hold on," a Grandmaster-level Undead Guard said respectfully.
When William saw the guard's expression, his heart that had just been lifted returned to his stomach. He turned his head and asked in confusion, "What's the matter?"
"Are you a legendary awakener who did not report?"
"Report what?"
"Report!"
"What report?"
The Grandmaster guard's mouth twitched. He took a step back, and a professional with a slightly stronger aura came forward and said, "My Lord, we have no intention of stopping you. We just want to bring you to the Identity Hall to report your identity. Perhaps you have awakened the memories of your previous life, but you should know that you are no longer a living person …"
William's eyes flashed with confusion, fear, and helplessness. His expression became more and more furious, as if he wanted to refute what the two of them had said. After a long time, he only expressionlessly said in a deep voice, "Let's go. Bring me there."
The Grandmaster guard smiled and pointed in the direction for William to go first. He followed behind and said, "Where did My Lord awaken?"
William frowned. He was a little confused. It was hard to say.
The guard hurriedly smiled and said, "It's okay if you don't know. Just point to the place where you came from. My Lord seems to have awakened for a period of time."
"Time? What's the point of talking about time here? I only know that I lived in a muddled state and woke up in a muddled state. Why don't you tell me what time is? "William's expression did not change, but he caught the guard's trap.
The young guard's eyes flashed, but he seemed to be relieved. He continued to say, "My Lord is right. I woke up on this ancient battlefield. Of course, time has no meaning to us.
Otherwise, more and more people who want to die will not start wars …
"But without death, how can there be new life?"
When the word 'new life' was mentioned, many awakeners on the street showed a fanatical state.
William took in the scene on the street. He did not say much. He just followed the guard to settle his identity certificate and obtained a portion of food.
Or rather …
It was a piece of flesh from a living person. It looked fresh and juicy. It should be the belly meat of a fat lad. If it was roasted, the little dead next door would be so hungry that they would cry.
In fact, there was no need to roast it. The moment this piece of flesh was taken out, the staff of the identity hall, and even some Advanced, Grandmaster, and Epic awakeners, all looked at this piece of flesh with crazy eyes.
William did not dare to hesitate. He also showed a hungry expression, but he forcibly shifted his gaze and kept it in his space ring. Only then did he heave a deep sigh of relief, but he also showed a disgusted expression.
After the other awakeners did not see this piece of flesh, they showed a look of despair, but they did not dare to say anything.
It was obvious.
As a Legendary awakener, William seemed to have certain privileges. When he first woke up, he could obtain a piece of delicious food. If he wanted to obtain the flesh of living creatures again, he would need to use other methods.
The staff who had just given him the flesh swallowed his saliva and said, "My Lord, you must have just woken up. The flesh of living creatures is very valuable. You may have the memory of your previous life and do not want to eat it now, but it is our instinct to devour the flesh of living creatures. "Even the dark creatures of the Dark World do not have such a strong instinct like us. Even if you do not want to eat it, there is no need to throw it away. You can use it to exchange for many good things."
"You don't have to care about my matters." William showed an impatient look and turned to leave.
The staff looked helpless. He wanted to say something nice to let the Legendary big shot in front of him know the value of this piece of flesh. Then, he would take advantage of the fact that William did not want to eat it now.
But the guy named Caesar was obviously a little arrogant. After knowing the value of this piece of flesh, he turned to leave.
But they did not dare to make too much noise, because the awakener in front of them was a Legendary expert. In terms of life level, it was enough to suppress them to the point that they could not breathe.
But how did the awakeners become stronger?
They would be at the same level as they were before they died.
They would devour the flesh of living creatures.
They would devour the origin power of other awakeners.
Finally, they would fall into a deep sleep. It was equivalent to the training of professionals, but it was too slow.
In the following days, William wandered around the city. After rejecting the invitations of some forces, he continued to explore the mysteries of this world.
Three days passed.
William found out a lot of things.
The living creatures in this small world of the Underworld were once believers of the Underworld. There were billions of them, including Elves, Seraphkin, Dragons, Humans, and so on.
But after the small world left the river of time, the living creatures here seemed to have obtained eternal life. But the disappearance of time would bring unimaginable torment to the ordinary living creatures.
Memories, sleep, diseases, pain, and countless things related to time would be superimposed on them at this moment.
Their souls were completely unable to adapt to the stagnation of time. So after countless people went crazy, some Legendary experts could not bear it and took the initiative to launch destructive wars again and again.
According to William's calculations, the farthest war from now was in the middle of the second era …
In fact, there were many Dragons, Elves, and Seraphkin.
According to logic, as long as these long-lived creatures had a high enough level, they could live for a very long time. Many Legendary professionals were the same. But it should not be forgotten that the time here was chaotic. It was eternal. They could not feel the passage of time, but they would also go crazy during the long years.
So time …
Actually, to many living creatures, time was indispensable.
Only by dying, being reborn, and becoming an Awakener could they truly adapt to this new world that had no concept of time.
However, it was not as if there were no living creatures in this world.
There was an underground farm in the center of this city, where living creatures, animals, and magical beasts lived. It was difficult for them to die even if they wanted to …
And 'they' were the rations of the top Awakeners here.
William had even heard that in that farm, there were many Legendary creatures that could live for many years.
They were strong, had perseverance, and could continuously recover from their injuries by absorbing magic. No matter how much flesh was cut from their bodies, as long as it was not fatal, their desire to live would be triggered. They would continuously absorb magic to recover from their injuries.
But it was precisely these Legendary professionals that had lived long enough that they provided endless rations to the top Awakeners, thereby satisfying their cravings.
Even if some Legendary professionals had been driven crazy, but …
The King's Land no longer needed dead people. Even if they were crazy, no one would kill them. After all, there were fewer and fewer living creatures, and there was less and less food.
When William found out about these things.
He could not help but want to vomit.
He had never expected that the deepest part of this World of the Dead hid such an incredible secret.
He even suspected that the God of the Underworld did not want to attack the Legendary professionals that had entered. He must have made some kind of deal with the sages outside.
For example, the Legendary experts from the outside could come here to search for opportunities. But if they were not careful and fell here, they could not think of leaving alive.
William gradually became suspicious. He started to think. Why did the God of the Underworld intend to create this group of dead?
This group of dead was strong, but there was not much hope of them becoming sages. They were not worthy of being called the subordinates of the God of the Underworld.
Then what was his purpose in doing all this?
Faith?
"No, the God of the Underworld should still be clearing the faith. Even if it was for faith, he could wait for himself to recover his strength, and then go to the Gods' continent to find more believers."
"Using this group of dead to conquer the Gods' continent, and thus causing the deaths of the major continents?" William slightly frowned. If the more people who died, the more benefits the God of the Underworld would receive. This logic seemed reasonable, but it was still a little far-fetched.
"Oh … God of the Underworld, dead, Styx?"
"Of the same origin?"
"It is said that the power of the dead can make people stronger. What about the God of the Underworld?"
"Especially the awakened ones in this city. Moreover, there are more and more awakened ones now."
"The God of the Underworld has awakened and devoured countless awakened ones to become stronger?"
"What is it?" William took a deep breath and turned to look in the direction of the Styx.
He knew that there was a temple nearby. It was the temple of the Bloody God. Perhaps he could understand more things there or obtain more treasures.
But …
At this moment.
William vaguely sensed the gazes of many people.
It was a group of dead people.
They were looking at him …
It was like looking at a piece of food.
