Zhou Wen looked at Zhang Yuzhi, who was crying in front of the black six-winged dragon's corpse. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly saw a golden pillar of light rise from the seawater.
In the pillar of light, a golden apple floated out of the water and slowly rose into midair.
The golden apple was clearly the one Zhou Wen had thrown out. At that moment, it seemed to have a life of its own as it floated in midair, emitting a resplendent divine glow.
Above the golden beam of light that reached the sky, a golden figure slowly descended from the sky like a god. The figure seemed to be condensed from golden light as it descended with a terrifying pressure. It was like a prison or a sea, as though it was a supreme existence in the world.
The golden figure descended along the golden beam of light until it stopped in front of the golden apple. It reached out and grabbed the golden apple.
Almost at the same time, Zhou Wen and company heard an indescribable divine voice sound in their minds. "Human, you have completed my race's trial in the human world. Leave your names behind. You will receive the reward bestowed by my race."
"I don't want it," Zhang Yuzhi said as she shook her head. The tears on her face were still visible.
Zhou Wen and An Sheng exchanged looks as An Sheng nodded slightly at Zhou Wen. Zhou Wen thought for a moment and said to the golden figure, "Poison."
Boom!
With Zhou Wen's voice, the entire island trembled as though the birth of the universe was repeating itself. The destruction of the island rapidly recovered under the envelopment of the golden light.
The seawater receded and the ground calmed. Rocks flew backward, restoring the mountain walls. The grass sprouted and grew again, and the golden apple tree produced another golden apple.
Under the golden apple tree, another black dragon appeared. It looked very similar to the one Zhou Wen and company had killed, but it was somewhat different.
As for the black six-winged dragon's corpse that Zhou Wen and company had killed, it gradually disintegrated and vanished, leaving behind only a dimensional crystal.
Under the apple tree, there was another item. It was a golden monument. On the top of the monument was the word "Poison." There was nothing below it.
"In the name of the gods, I bestow you a golden apple." The golden figure held the golden apple as it shimmered. Moments later, the golden light gradually faded, and the golden apple's luster converged as it slowly flew towards Zhou Wen.
When the golden shadow and beam vanished, the golden apple landed in Zhou Wen's hand. Although it was still the golden apple, Zhou Wen felt something different.
"How do we get out?" Zhou Wen couldn't help but ask when he saw the golden figure disappear.
"Let's try leaving the way we came," An Sheng said.
"Let's go." Zhou Wen helped Zhang Yuzhi up and picked up the black six-winged dragon's dimensional crystal.
It was a skill crystal, but he didn't know what skill it was. Furthermore, Mythical dimensional crystals had very high requirements for stats. It wasn't that easy to absorb.
The three of them came to the pool again. This time, the pool sucked them in. When they came out of the waterfall again, they found that they had returned to the original island. Their boat was parked on the beach, and the island in the distance was faintly visible.
"Do you still want to continue heading to other dimensional zones?" An Sheng asked.
"Our injuries are so serious. I don't know when we will recover. How are we going to go?" Zhou Wen felt that he was definitely at odds with the dimensional zones in reality. It was best not to go to any dimensional zones.
The three of them boarded the boat. Zhou Wen and An Sheng were too seriously injured, so it wasn't appropriate for them to move around. Zhang Yuzhi drove the boat while An Sheng was in charge of commanding. They followed the path back to the Peninsula of Gods.
"We have a total of two spoils of war. The golden apple and the black six-winged dragon's Essence Energy Skill Crystal. Yuzhi, choose one." Zhou Wen placed the two items in front of Zhang Yuzhi.
If it wasn't for Zhang Yuzhi, he might have died. He wouldn't have been able to last until Demonic Neonate's ancient sword tore out of his heart. Zhang Yuzhi was indeed qualified.
"There's no need. I don't want to see anything related to it," Zhang Yuzhi said with a shake of her head.
"Are you alright?" Zhou Wen asked Zhang Yuzhi.
Zhang Yuzhi's condition was clearly a little odd. She was actually so sad for a dimensional creature. Furthermore, the black six-winged dragon hadn't injured her during its final death strike at that moment of rage. This was clearly not right.
Zhou Wen guessed that this might have something to do with the Essence Energy Art Zhang Yuzhi cultivated or her Life Providence. Zhou Wen had previously heard that some people's Life Providences could communicate with dimensional creatures. As for Zhang Yuzhi's ability, it was clearly not as simple as communication.
"I'm fine. I'll get used to it." Zhang Yuzhi forced a smile, but it was obvious that she was still in a terrible mood.
Seeing that she really didn't want it and even felt some disgust, Zhou Wen gave the two items to An Sheng.
An Sheng took the dimensional crystal and left the golden apple to Zhou Wen. "Take this. It might be useful in the future."
Zhou Wen and An Sheng didn't stand on ceremony as they put away the golden apple.
Zhang Yuzhi didn't wish to mention what had happened on the island at all, so Zhou Wen and An Sheng didn't ask any further.
While the ship was still en route, Zhou Wen and company saw a flock of Sky Cranes tearing through the sky. Soon, they arrived in front of their ship. Zhang Xiao landed from the Sky Crane's back and saw that Zhou Wen and An Sheng were seriously injured. His expression changed drastically. He ignored the two of them and walked straight to Zhang Yuzhi, asking anxiously, "Yuzhi, are you alright?"
"I'm fine. It's all thanks to Zhou Wen and An Sheng protecting me that I wasn't injured. However, they were seriously injured. I have to thank them properly," Zhang Yuzhi said.
Zhou Wen and An Sheng immediately understood that Zhang Yuzhi had said that because she was afraid that the Zhang family would cause trouble for them.
"Thank you for protecting Yuzhi. If you need anything in the future, try to inform me." After Zhang Xiao said that to Zhou Wen and An Sheng, he called for an Epic expert of the Zhang family to come down and use a rare healing spell to treat their injuries. At the same time, the Heavenly Crane team protected Zhang Yuzhi's return.
After returning to the harbor, Zhou Wen and An Sheng's injuries were much better. The Zhang family quickly left with Zhang Yuzhi as though they were protecting a real princess.
"I originally heard that the Zhang family's little princess is very favored. I thought it was because the Zhang family only has one daughter, but from the looks of it, it's not that simple. That might be one reason, but the most important reason might have something to do with her Life Providence," An Sheng said to Zhou Wen as he watched the Zhang family protect Zhang Yuzhi and disappear.
Zhou Wen nodded. He naturally could tell that there was something wrong with Zhang Yuzhi. Then, he recalled how she had slept in a coffin on the plane. It was even more problematic.
"Don't think too much about it. Let's find a place to stay and recuperate from our injuries. With such serious injuries, I'm afraid it will take some time for us to recover. Thankfully, the Zhang family used healing spells to treat us. Otherwise, it's hard to say if we can participate in the auction the day after tomorrow," An Sheng said.
