The ancient soldiers rushed up the stairs like a swarm of ants, desperately charging at the beauty standing at the end of the stairs. It was as though the beauty had an endless hatred for them.
Zhou Wen was dumbfounded. It wasn't like he had never seen dimensional creatures fight dimensional creatures, but this was the first time he had seen dimensional creatures ignore humans who had killed many of their own kind and desperately try to kill another dimensional creature.
As there were too many soldiers rushing over, Zhou Wen had no choice but to fly into the air and watch the soldiers swarm over.
The few generals at the front were about to reach the top of the stairs. They couldn't wait to leap up and stab the beauty with all sorts of weapons.
The beauty didn't dodge in the face of the massive army. She only looked at the soldiers indifferently as though none of this had anything to do with her.
Just as the weapons were about to stab the beauty, the palace door behind her suddenly opened. Brilliant divine light shot out from inside, reducing the ancient soldiers to ashes the moment they came into contact with the divine light.
The beauty remained motionless with her back facing the divine light like a fairy bathing in the morning light.
The ant-like ancient soldiers, on the other hand, were like ghosts encountering light. They all screamed and turned into ashes. For a moment, Luo Yi City was filled with rising grey smoke. The scene was gloomy and strange, yet it was a magnificent sight.
Zhou Wen gathered his strength to resist the brilliant divine light, but he realized that it didn't affect him at all when it shone on him.
Tiantian stood there without any intention of resisting the divine light. Similarly, she was fine.
The woman bathed in divine light glanced at Zhou Wen and Tiantian before turning to walk into the palace.
"Are you going to be born?" Zhou Wen pondered for a moment before asking.
With Tiantian by his side, if he didn't ask now, it would be useless if he faced her alone in the future.
The woman stopped in her tracks, but she didn't turn around. All she did was stand in the brilliant divine light and say, "If I were to be born, it wouldn't be like this."
With that said, the woman walked through the door. With a creak, the door automatically closed, isolating the world inside the palace from the outside once again.
Without the light, Luo Yi City immediately became gloomy and terrifying again. The ancient soldiers that weren't illuminated by the divine light finally seemed to regain their senses. After discovering Zhou Wen, they roared and charged forward.
The ordinary ancient soldiers were at the Mythical stage at best, so Zhou Wen didn't think much of them. With a casual wave of his hand, he reduced the approaching ancient soldiers to ashes, dropping quite a number of dimensional crystals.
"What does that woman mean? If she was born, things would not be like this. Based on what he said, it didn't seem like she was going to be born. However, there's something wrong with her words. Does she mean that if she were to appear, the disaster would be even more terrifying? Zhou Wen couldn't help but feel worried.
The appearance of a natural calamity had already plunged Luoyang into an abyss of suffering. If another one were to happen, Zhou Wen felt that his days would be over.
A place like Luoyang really isn't much. There are too many legends and dangers, Zhou Wen thought as he glanced at Tiantian. Seeing that she was unmoved, there was nothing he could do.
He did want Tiantian to help him kill the woman. He even wanted to rush into the palace and cleanse all the dimensional creatures inside to get rid of this future threat.
However, Tiantian didn't listen to him. She even had a grudge with him, so all Zhou Wen could do was sigh.
"From the looks of it, this isn't the only dimensional zone where the Calamity creature is born," Tiantian said.
Zhou Wen's eyes lit up when he heard Tiantian. "If I find a Calamity creature that's born, you will help me get rid of it, right?"
"Of course not," Tiantian immediately answered with certainty without any hesitation.
"You are so kind. Can you bear to see the birth of a Calamity creature and the destruction of life?" Zhou Wen asked.
"This is a law of nature to begin with. Don't you humans also cruelly kill many dimensional creatures? You even have to eat large numbers of creature corpses every day. According to your logic, I should kill all you humans first to prevent the destruction of life, "Tiantian said seriously.
Zhou Wen was momentarily speechless. On second thought, there was indeed nothing wrong with it.
Humans could hunt other creatures, so why couldn't dimensional creatures hunt humans?
After taking a deep look at the tightly shut palace door, Zhou Wen turned around and walked out of Luo Yi City.
He knew very well that if he wanted to stay in Luo Yi City in the future, he would probably have to face the great horror in Luo Yi City and that woman sooner or later.
After leaving Luo Yi City, Zhou Wen went to Yang City, which was relatively close to Luo Yi City.
Yang City was at the lowest level of the dungeons. Among the known dungeons, there was no one deeper than Yang City.
Legend had it that Yang City was once the capital of Yu the Great. Instead of saying that Yu the Great was a human, it was more accurate to say that it was a myth.
The legend of Yu the Great's flood control was a household name in the East District. Zhou Wen had naturally heard his grandfather talk about it when he was young.
Zhou Wen even guessed that Yu the Great's flood control might have something to do with the prehistoric flood.
According to the information Zhou Wen had, the continent was a single entity back then. A dimensional ship tore through the sky and, in order to find the strongest Companion Beast on Earth, it forcefully tore through the continent and entered the depths of Earth.
The continent was heavily damaged and split into pieces, forming the four major regions of today.
The four major regions had the legend of the prehistoric flood. Zhou Wen felt that it wasn't a coincidence.
Sometimes, Zhou Wen wondered if Yu the Great's previous flood was an effect of that flood. If it was really related, Yu the Great's flood control definitely wasn't as simple as he imagined.
The Battle of Zhuolu and the Battle of the Gods were indeed the most famous legendary battles in the East District.
However, on careful thought, Yu the Great's flood control seemed to be an extremely well-hidden legendary battle. However, for some reason, the details hadn't been passed down.
Yu the Great led the human tribes and during the flood control process, he split open mountains and rivers and killed countless terrifying creatures. If the legend was true, where did those terrifying creatures come from? Why did Yu the Great have the ability to kill them?
In the myths that Zhou Wen knew, the Divine Sea-Calming Needle in the Monkey King's hand was the tool that Yu the Great used to measure the depth of the water.
One had to know that the legendary Divine Sea-Calming Needle weighed 13,500 kilograms. It was impossible for ordinary people to pick it up, much less use it to measure the depth of the water.
The more he thought about it, the more fearful Zhou Wen felt respect for the Yang City dimensional zone. If not for Tiantian following him, he wouldn't have dared enter.
When he arrived at Yang City, which was the deepest underground, it was somewhat different from what Zhou Wen had imagined. This city wasn't built with bricks or stones, but a city made of earth.
