Pfft!
The Jade Xiu King spat out a few mouthfuls of blood again. The blood was black and smelly from being tainted by the aura of death. When it landed on the ground, the hard rocks were instantly corroded into smoke.
As for the Ink Scaled King, his injuries were even worse. The armor on his body had been shattered into pieces, and terrifying cracks had spread all over his body. On the surface, one would be worried that he would shatter into pieces like glass.
"Just a little more and I would have died at the hands of that damned thing."
The Ink Scaled King gritted his teeth and tried his best to circulate his power to heal his injuries, but the damage caused by the grey-robed dead spirit was too terrifying. His body had already been invaded by the aura of death, and all his bones and organs were shattered. He was a King with the blood of the Black Qilin in him. If he had been an ordinary creature, he would have been dead long ago.
The Jade Xiu King's injuries were also very serious. Although he had only exchanged one round with the grey-robed dead spirit, the dead spirit's cultivation had doubled in an instant due to the addition of one more person. He was now able to kill him easily.
"What a terrifying creature of death."
Mo Wen was secretly shocked. The difficulty of the Ninth Spirit Mountain was so high that two of the Great Kings on their side had no more strength to fight after just one exchange.
Did he and the Multicolor Queen have any hope of making it through?
The few of them looked rather grim, especially the three Great Kings of the preliminary ancient land. What lay before them was practically a dead end. If they could not make it through the Ninth Spirit Mountain, they would be doomed eternally. Only Mo Wen was different. He could still return to the Eighth Spirit Mountain and teleport away from the Spirit Platform to the Creation Pool.
But the natives of the ancient land could only die here.
"There's no more hope."
The Jade Xiu King sighed softly. His eyes were full of desolation, but there was no fear or dread. To be able to live as long as he had, he was already indifferent to life and death. Rather than being trapped in this tiny cage that was the ancient land, he would rather sleep forever. This was also why they had come here without hesitation, even though they knew that failure meant death.
It was a pity that he had not escaped this cage. No matter how much he struggled, it was futile.
"The heavens are not on my side!" The Ink Scaled King sighed heavily as well. His eyes were full of indignation. He did not want to fail. He still wanted to fight with everything he had. However, he didn't even have the ability to risk his life now.
The Multicolor Queen was silent. Her face was shrouded in a layer of hazy, colorful light. The colorful light was rather mysterious. Even Mo Wen's Eyes of Enlightenment could not see through the colorful light with a single glance. It was said that the Multicolor Queen's appearance had always been a mystery in the ancient land. Even the Jade Xiu King and the Ink Scaled King, who were both part of the Three Great Kings, had never seen what the Multicolor Queen looked like.
"Mo Wen, thank you for helping us get here. Although it is a pity that we have failed, it is also because of you that we have a chance to fight. We can't go any further. Perhaps our fates have long been decided. Please return, the Eighth Spirit Platform has no restrictions on you. "
The Jade Xiu King looked at Mo Wen. Although he was very unwilling, he could only compromise in the end. Given the current situation, they could no longer proceed forward. Although they were only one step away, this one step was like a heavenly moat that separated them from two different worlds.
Mo Wen remained silent. He could just leave. With the difficulty of the Nine Spirits Road, to be able to make it to the Eighth Spirit Platform was a rare achievement, even from ancient times until now. But if he just left like that, the Three Great Kings of the ancient land would definitely die here. Since he had brought them here, he had a responsibility to take them away from this place. It was not his style to just leave like that. He would not take this path unless he had no other choice.
"Brother Mo Wen, you have already done all you can. You don't have to care about us. We ended up like this because we were useless. You don't have to feel guilty. Hurry up and leave. You are a human preliminary cultivator. The Nine Spirits Road will not make things difficult for you. "
The Ink Scaled King tried to persuade Mo Wen when he saw that he was hesitating.
Mo Wen still did not speak. There was some hesitation in his eyes. The Three Great Kings of the ancient land had played a huge role in him being able to make it to the Eighth Spirit Mountain. If it were not for their help, he might not even have been able to make it to the Eighth Spirit Mountain. Along the way, although he had not known the Three Great Kings of the ancient land for long, they were indeed open and aboveboard. Given the current situation, the Three Great Kings actually had one option: to force him to send the three of them back to the preliminary ancient land. That way, they would be able to continue living after returning to the preliminary ancient land. But if he did that, Mo Wen would never be able to enter the Creation Pool again. Because once he left, he would not be able to enter again.
However, the Three Great Kings did not do that. Instead, they asked him to leave alone. With their abilities, if they joined forces to threaten Mo Wen, he would not be able to do anything.
"Since I have brought you here, there is no reason for me to leave you here. Let me send you back to the ancient land." Mo Wen sighed softly. This way, they would all be able to live, but he would never be able to enter the Creation Pool again.
"No, Brother Mo Wen, we appreciate your good intentions. I never thought that there would be such a sentimental person among humans. Back then, when you wreaked havoc in Multicolor City to save your companions, I already felt that you were different from those selfish humans. Choosing to come here was our own decision. We have long been prepared to cut off our means of retreat. This is the worst outcome. If we die, then so be it. We have lived long enough. Rather than continuing to live in this cage, we might as well die and say goodbye to the world. "
The Jade Xiu King shook his head. He had not expected Mo Wen to make such a decision. A human was willing to give up his future to save them. It was truly sentimental. But as the king of the ancient land, he could not accept such sentiments. He could not accept it. The moment he made a decision, he had to be prepared to bear the responsibility.
"Brother Mo Wen, I will definitely be your brother. It's just that I regret not meeting you earlier. If I had known you earlier, I would have definitely drank to my heart's content. However, you don't have to say anything about sending us back to the ancient land. I am not a sore loser. I cannot sacrifice your future to live an ignoble existence. Furthermore, even though you've cultivated the Light of Creation, the Creation Pool is an object of creation from the Primordial Era. It's one of the ten greatest treasures of all time. Whether or not you can enter the Creation Pool is definitely a factor that will affect your life. With your talent, the creation talisman you have, and the result of reaching the Eighth Spirit Platform, the benefits you will receive in the Creation Pool are definitely not something those people can compare to.
"Since ancient times, there have been many who have entered the Creation Pool. However, those who have been able to create a body of creation in the Creation Pool and be reborn are few and far between. You must grasp this opportunity. Don't be careless."
The Ink Scaled King had always been direct with his words. He had his own way of doing things, and he never went back on his word. He could not accept such a favor from Mo Wen. Moreover, he would not be able to repay this favor in the future. After all, once they returned to the ancient land, Mo Wen would leave, and they would be imprisoned in the ancient land forever.
"Death is not scary. The three of us have never been afraid of death. If not for our dedication to the Heavenly Path, we would have gone crazy after living in such a sealed environment for so long. Brother Mo Wen, hurry up and leave. Don't stay here and watch me make a fool of myself, "the Jade Xiu King said with a smile.
The Jade Xiu King said with a smile. It was either succeed or die trying. They had no intention of going back alive.
"Mo Wen, there is one last way."
The Multicolor Queen, who had been silent all this while, suddenly stared at Mo Wen and said something that no one had expected. There was another way? The dead spirit was so terrifying. Was there really another way in the current situation?
"Multicolor, what is it?" the Ink Scaled King asked impatiently.
The Multicolor Queen ignored him. Instead, she pulled Mo Wen to the side and said softly, "Mo Wen, our Multicolor Clan has inherited the bloodline of the Multicolor Xuan Ming Spider. Every Multicolor Queen has a special ability. The ability that I have inherited is rare even among the pure-blooded Multicolor Xuan Ming Spiders of the Ancient Era. However, once I use that ability, I will no longer be myself. I hope that you will treat me well in the future. "
Mo Wen was confused. He still did not understand what the Multicolor Queen meant. What did she mean by no longer being herself? What did she mean by 'treat me well in the future'?
However, the Multicolor Queen was very decisive. She did not say anything more. She took a step forward and hugged Mo Wen. At the same time, an incomparably brilliant glazed light exploded from the Multicolor Queen's body. The light was dazzling and exceptionally enchanting.
"The Rainbow Divine Light. What's going on?" The Jade Xiu King and the Ink Scaled King narrowed their eyes slightly. The Rainbow Divine Light made it hard for them to look directly at it.
Mo Wen was stunned. He had not expected the Multicolor Queen to do such a thing. The strange thing was that the Multicolor Queen's body was slowly turning incorporeal under the Rainbow Divine Light. Her body seemed to be merging into Mo Wen's body bit by bit.
"Trust me. Don't resist."
The Multicolor Queen's soft voice rang in his ear. Mo Wen hesitated for a moment, then completely relaxed and said nothing more. He did not sense any malice from the Multicolor Queen. Instead, he sensed a very close emotional fluctuation.
"That is …"
The Jade Xiu King and the Ink Scaled King looked at each other. Their eyes were filled with disbelief as they exclaimed, "The legendary Heart of Multicolor! The Ancient Divine Technique, the Heart of Multicolor! Multicolor has actually mastered such an ancient divine technique! "
It was as if the two of them were meeting the Multicolor Queen for the first time. Their eyes widened as they stared at the scene before them, tongue-tied. The Heart of Multicolor was a rather famous divine technique even in the Primeval Age. It originated from the Multicolor Xuan Ming Spider and was the most mysterious and special Innate Gift of the Multicolor Xuan Ming Spider Clan. Even in the Primeval Age, Multicolor Xuan Ming Spiders with the Heart of Multicolor were extremely rare. Who would have thought that the Multicolor Queen, who had only inherited some of the Multicolor Xuan Ming Spider's bloodline, would actually possess an ancient divine technique like the Heart of Multicolor?
"The Heart of Multicolor! That is the most sacred power of the Multicolor Xuan Ming Spider. It symbolizes true love, loyalty, and protection … In the Primeval Age, only the luckiest of people could obtain this Heart of Multicolor. Since Multicolor has the Heart of Multicolor, why doesn't she use it on me? I'm much more powerful than Mo Wen, "the Ink Scaled King said somewhat gloomily.
"Forget it. She doesn't have any feelings for you at all," the Jade Xiu King said lightly, pouring cold water on the Ink Scaled King.
