Persei reacted immediately and asked in a low voice, "Dongbo Xue Ying, did you get poisoned by the hex poison?"
Passing the most basic test of the floating island, the Meteor Bridge, would result in a gift, but only a gift. Dongbo Xue Ying had actually chosen the 'Creation of Heaven and Earth'. What about the antidote?
"I can't." Dongbo Xue Ying shook his head, "Senior Xi Wei said that the Six Ghosts Resentment is a peak-stage Deity poison. The antidote is too valuable, far surpassing the value of a gift."
"But this isn't a primitive hex poison." Persei asked.
"Even if it's a weakened version, the antidote's value far surpasses the value of a gift." Dongbo Xue Ying shook his head.
By the side, the Meishan Master, the golden-robed youth Kenhuang, the white-robed girl, and the others all looked at Dongbo Xue Ying. Although they felt some sympathy, they didn't say anything.
"Hex poison, ai, it's truly terrifying." Persei sighed. His beloved had died from the hex poison, and even his Flying Sword Manor had no way of saving her, "Moreover, the Six Ghosts Resentment is a peak-stage Deity poison. If it was a primitive hex poison, even a peak-stage Deity expert would be tormented by it. To seek help, one would have to pay a price far surpassing the value of a top-grade Deity weapon."
Deity weapons were divided into 'Deity', 'World Deity', and even higher.
Weapons like the Sorcerer God's saber and Senior Snow were considered top-grade Deity weapons! Demigods were incapable of activating ordinary top-grade Deity weapons. They could only activate low-grade Deity weapons.
As for the Sorcerer God's saber and Senior Snow … they both had one thing in common, they were blood-refined Deity weapons! The ones that grew alongside their master were all from low-grade Deity weapons to top-grade Deity weapons. Due to the limitations of the weapon's material, the Deity rank was their limit. Because they were blood-refined Deity weapons, they could be controlled by Demigods.
However, the requirement for the soul was extremely high. One needed to be very close to the original owner's soul in order to activate it.
"Thus, Deities that specialize in hex poisons are extremely terrifying in the Deity world." Persei said, "However, I didn't expect that the Sorcerer God's Sword's weaker voodoo poison … could not be cured even in Crimson Rock Mountain."
"After all, it's a peak-level Divine level witch poison." The Meishan Master spoke up from the side. "Haven't you all noticed that the gifts given by Crimson Rock Mountain are actually quite cheap? They aren't even willing to give a single Divine Artifact. They were all Demigod grade treasures! The extremely valuable 'Watching the Creation of Heaven and Earth' and the 'Cultivation Grotto-Heaven' won't cause them any loss. "
Everyone present nodded.
Yes, the real treasures given weren't very valuable. The creation of heaven and earth? I'm just taking a look. Cultivation Paradise? Cultivating there wouldn't affect the grotto-heaven at all.
"Yes, it's the 'Creation of Heaven and Earth' and the 'Cultivation Paradise' that attract people." Persei shook his head and smiled. He had to make sure that the demigods were attractive enough. Otherwise, there would be very few who would risk their lives.
"Back in the Deity Realm, Crimson Rock Mountain attracted countless demigods. Even Deities went. Of course, the Deities who went were all peak-stage Deities." Uncle Fu added from the side. The demigods who came were all peak-stage demigods. Naturally, the Deities who took the trials were all peak-stage Deities.
"You can't blame Crimson Rock Mountain for being stingy."
Dongbo Xue Ying said, "Countless demigods and even Deities went to challenge it. If they paid too many gifts, Crimson Rock Mountain wouldn't be able to hold on for too long. Naturally, they had to control the value of the gifts. Only the 'Creation of Heaven and Earth' and the 'Cultivation Paradise' that don't require much of a price can they be more generous. "
"Mm."
Everyone present nodded.
One Demigod would be given a Divine Artifact. The Deity Realm was so vast … over the course of a hundred million years, how many Demigods had passed the basic trials? How many Divine Artifacts did they have to give? That was a terrifying number. The value of the gifts had to be strictly controlled.
"Dongbo Xue Ying, I didn't expect that even without an antidote, he would be so open-minded," said the golden-robed youth, Kenhuang. "Admirable, admirable."
Dongbo Xue Ying smiled but didn't explain.
Previously, he had been somewhat anxious and unresigned. However, the matter of Senior Chao Qing becoming a Deity had greatly improved his mood and made him feel much more relaxed. Thus, he was able to accept it. One should always look forward and not always rely on luck.
… …
Wu Ma Hai was watching the 'Creation of Heaven and Earth' from within the gorge. An hour later, it was the white-robed girl's turn to enter.
Everyone took turns to enter; they were in no rush.
Each person was given an hour!
Dongbo Xue Ying was the last to arrive, and so he was at the end of the line.
"Hua!"
The gorge, which had been enveloped by an invisible force, suddenly split apart. At this moment, Dongbo Xue Ying was the only one left outside the gorge. He strode into the gorge.
The gorge was silent. It didn't take long.
Dongbo Xue Ying saw a black-robed elder standing in the distance.
"Young Transcendent." The black-robed elder looked at Dongbo Xue Ying as he said coldly, "It hasn't been too long since you watched the 'Creation of Heaven and Earth'. Usually, after watching the 'Creation of Heaven and Earth', you would fall into a state of enlightenment. However, an hour later, I will still teleport you back to Xi Wei's side. You must understand this."
"Yes, senior." Dongbo Xue Ying bowed respectfully.
"This is the Creation of Heaven and Earth Imprint." The black-robed elder pointed to a cliff by the side of the gorge.
Dongbo Xue Ying turned his head to take a look.
There was an invisible force blocking the cliff. But soon after, the invisible force dissipated, revealing a huge crater on the cliff. This crater even had finger prints. With a single glance, Dongbo Xue Ying was able to determine … that this should be the work of a gigantic finger on the cliff.
"There's no need to think too much. Just use your mental energy to sense it." The black-robed elder said.
"Yes."
Dongbo Xue Ying sat down cross-legged. After which, his soul energy permeated the area, seeping into the crater.
The instant his soul energy touched the crater …
"Hong!"
Dongbo Xue Ying 'saw' it.
It was a vast and silent void of darkness. Within the void stood a red-haired, red-robed elder. This elder's entire body was like a ball of incomparably dazzling flames. His hair, eyebrows, beard, and even his eyes were fiery red. Just by standing there, the formless pressure he exuded caused the void of darkness to tremble. Even though Dongbo Xue Ying was able to 'see' through the imprint, he still felt fear and respect from the bottom of his heart.
This red-haired, red-robed elder stretched out his right index finger and pointed towards the void of darkness.
His index finger seemed to expand rapidly, filling up one's vision.
At the same time, it seemed to be extremely small, penetrating into the deepest part of the void of darkness.
"Extremity!"
Dongbo Xue Ying instantly understood. From this finger, he could sense the 'extremity'. The tip of that finger … was like an extremity! It represented the end of all things, and also the extreme point of the beginning of all things!
"Hong ~ ~ ~"
With a single point of his finger, the void split apart. Boundless primordial energy of Heaven and Earth surged, and a world began to gradually expand and take shape.
Time and space began to appear in this world.
There was also a trace of mysterious undulation that permeated the entire world.
Of course, there was also the most dazzling fiery light that enveloped the entire world …
The world began to take shape.
This was a huge blazing world. Plants began to grow, and strange insects and beasts began to be born. Although it was a completely different world from the world of the Xia people, there were still many things in that world.
"Hua."
Everything ended.
Once again, a formless energy appeared on the cliff, blocking Dongbo Xue Ying's view of the world.
Dongbo Xue Ying sat cross-legged within the canyon. He was completely engrossed in the many fundamental Laws of Profound Mysteries of this world, especially the 'Extreme Piercing' that he was quite familiar with. That red-haired, red-robed elder had used a single finger to split the heavens and earth! For a moment, countless thoughts appeared in Dongbo Xue Ying's mind. He couldn't help but wave his finger in front of him. Sometimes, his finger would pierce out like a spear, and sometimes, he would slap out with his palm …
The black-robed elder by the side watched on expressionlessly. He had long gotten used to this. In the Deity World, it was unknown how many Transcendents and even Deities would be engrossed in watching this.
In any case, no matter how engrossed they were, once an hour was up, even if he would disturb them, he would still forcefully teleport them away.
