The outside world
AG, Nasira and the other two sat around a bonfire without saying a word.
The flickering light of the fire shone on their faces. There was not much warmth, but there was a faint sense of irritation.
"Other than this three-headed, six-armed monster, there are definitely other troubles here," AG said softly after resting for a while.
The surrounding forest was gloomy, and there was a strange and inexplicable atmosphere in the forest.
"I wonder what happened to Garon after he went into the monster's stomach?" Nasira frowned and looked at the huge monster in the distance. The three-headed, six-armed monster had not moved since Garon went in.
However, the three of them still did not dare to go near it. If the monster moved again, they would not be able to escape without paying a heavy price.
"Don't forget why we came in." AG stood up and began to wander around the surrounding bushes and trees. His face was gloomy and looked a little pale, as if he was injured by the monster. However, there was a hint of joy in his eyes from time to time.
"If I'm not wrong, this is the real garden of this underground palace."
He bent down and gently cut off a black grass that was as black as ink and shaped like a little person from the foot of a big tree. He then put it into his pocket and continued to look for something.
"Because no one has entered this place for many years, the herbs that grow here are simply terrifying!"
Nasira and Manasi looked at each other. They were not people who knew about herbs, so they just watched AG collect herbs and walked further and further away.
After another half an hour, when they took out some dry food to roast and eat, AG had already collected a big bag of herbs.
Looking at the joy on his face, it was obvious that he had gained a lot.
"If I can get out of here this time, my cultivation will definitely enter the final stage!" He had obtained a lot of rare herbs without any effort. No matter how calm he was, he could not help but show signs of excitement when he was about to undergo a qualitative change.
As for Manasi and Nasira's broken limbs, for a wizard, it was not difficult to find someone else's limbs to reattach.
The important thing was whether it was safe or not.
After collecting the herbs, the three of them looked at the huge monster in the distance again. They did not know when Garon would come out, and they did not know if Garon had fallen into the monster's trap and was trapped inside.
But all they could do now was wait.
"If my guess is correct, this monster should be the second guardian of this place. This kind of monster must be hiding a lot of secrets. We'd better wait for Garon to come out before we make a decision." AG said in a low voice. He took out two bone plates from some unknown animal and gently smashed them on the ground. Instantly, a few cracks appeared on them. This seemed to be some kind of divination method. He carefully identified the cracks under the firelight.
"I didn't expect the three of us to be trapped here, but that ordinary human actually …" Nasira smiled bitterly.
"What do you think of Garon and the Holy Fist Palace?" AG asked softly.
Nasira smiled bitterly while Manasi shook his head as if he could not understand.
Manasi looked at the giant monster in the distance.
"I don't know how to describe that person, but as a normal human, not a sorcerer or a Blood Breed, it's unbelievable that he could reach such heights."
He paused for a moment, "As for the Holy Fist Palace, I think that in the future, there will definitely be a place for them in the Transcendent World!"
The tone of his voice was already close to absolute certainty.
"The Death Apostles won't let him go. The Blood Breeds are still the strongest. "AG shook his head," It won't be that easy. "
"But who knows what's happening?" Nasira was heavily injured and had lost her usual arrogance, "I don't know why, but I don't like standing with Garon. He gives off a very dangerous feeling."
"Same. I don't know what that person is hiding. "AG nodded.
Boom!
Suddenly, the three-headed and six-armed monster in the distance slowly stood up from its kneeling position. Its three heads shook slightly.
"What is he doing!?" Nasira and the other two stood up and looked at the monster from afar.
*****
Garon closed his eyes tightly. Faint traces of golden light slowly gathered around his body. These golden lights were like golden threads that danced and rotated around his body.
He suddenly had a feeling that he had turned into a huge golden bird at this moment. He was like a phoenix, soaring and swimming in the endless void.
Waves of vague and unusual Sanskrit chanting continuously entered his ears. It was as if many people were sitting around him and chanting softly.
Holy Phoenix Scriptures … Holy Phoenix True Meaning!
Garon's mind entered a state of absolute self-awareness. All of his feelings and thoughts were retracted into his body. The only thing he could feel was himself. The only thing he could think about was still himself.
He closed his eyes and looked at the skill pane in his attribute pane. There was a faint golden rune on his main Secret Technique skill.
'Holy Phoenix Scriptures: Inheritance of an unknown civilization. Understanding the Holy Phoenix True Meaning has a certain chance of increasing the condensed Soul Seed and increasing the strength of the seed.'
The Soul Seed determined the strength of the soul, and the strength of the soul determined the limit of the physical fitness.
Garon's current physical fitness limit was an average of 30 points. This was after the first Soul Seed strengthened it.
There were three main stages of the soul. According to the Ancient Endor inheritance, 1. Normal soul. 2. Soul Seed. 3. True soul.
Every time a Soul Seed was condensed, it represented the condensation of a complete and powerful understanding to a certain extent. A life, a complete experience, and even an independent personality.
It could be said that every Soul Seed represented a peak condensation of oneself. It represented a successful life path and trajectory.
Garon did not know how other Ancient Endor Warlocks walked this path. However, he himself could only reach a certain height and condense a complete seed by walking on the path of condensing the essence of a life.
'Focus on understanding. The more Soul Seeds you condense, the higher the possibility of condensing a True Soul. Every Soul Seed can be a substitute for your soul and block a fatal attack on your soul. 'Black Sethe's voice rang in Garon's ears.
The combination of the Holy Phoenix True Meaning and the Demonic Book's understanding had reached the level of condensing a Soul Seed. This was also what Black Sethe hoped to see.
Condensing the second Soul Seed was the moment when Garon's whole body reached a higher level. At that time …
Buzz!!!
Suddenly, a violent vibration interrupted Black Sethe's train of thought.
He quickly condensed a black smoke figure behind Garon and looked around.
He saw that the entire interior of the monstrous Buddha Mother was filled with wisps of golden gas. A large amount of golden gas began to slowly gather in front of Garon and became more and more solid. Soon, it formed a golden diamond-shaped crystal suspended in mid-air.
A golden electric arc flashed across the surface of the crystal, and a scene of the outside world slowly appeared.
Garon slowly opened his eyes. He felt that his whole body was wrapped in a warm ocean. It was as if he was under the noon sun, or soaking in hot spring water.
His eyes happened to be hit by two golden lights that shot out from the crystal. As they reflected in his eyes, lines of densely packed information and words quickly slid past.
All the information about this monster suddenly surged into his eyes.
Garon's face suddenly revealed a look of understanding.
This information indeed explained the origin of this monster, and also the way to leave this dangerous place.
This three-headed, six-armed monster was called the Buddha Mother. It was indeed created by a being called the Holy Phoenix. Strangely, this Holy Phoenix's information was similar to the Waterbird Fist's Profound: Flight of the Evil Phoenix. Plus, the Buddha Mother was too old. Its memories were in a mess, and its consciousness was extremely simple. It mistook it for the Holy Phoenix of the past, and surrendered without resistance.
'Is there a way to get out?' Black Sethe asked.
"There is, but it's a little troublesome." Garon frowned. "To get out, we'll need to consume a large amount of energy. The Buddha Mother's power isn't enough, so I'll need to burn a part of my life energy."
'Life energy?'
"Yes." Garon nodded. "It's equivalent to the biological energy in a living creature. Normal humans don't have it, but I'm strong enough, and my body is strong enough, so it's nothing."
He estimated that, according to the Buddha Mother's judgment, to get out, not only would he have to give up the Buddha Mother's huge body, he would also have to sacrifice a part of his life energy. It was equivalent to the blood essence of Secret Techniques. Fortunately, he still had Potential Points to replenish it. If it was someone else, they would probably be suffocated to death here.
Garon muttered to himself for a while. Following the method recorded by the Buddha Mother, his mind moved.
Buzz …
The entire space started to vibrate slightly.
*****
The huge Buddha Mother stood up slowly. Its three heads and six arms shook a little. It was like a small mountain, and slowly looked in the direction of AG and the others.
There was a whoosh on the Buddha Mother's right shoulder, and a blurry figure suddenly appeared. It was Garon with his upper body naked.
The muscles on his body were knotted like black armor, and his entire body was filled with a terrifying aura.
"AG, I need your help if we want to get out of here."
Garon's voice spread far and wide, passing through the forest and directly reaching where AG and the others were at the bonfire.
"Garon …" AG and the others stood up.
"You know how to get out?" AG's eyes flashed with surprise and joy.
"Of course." Garon leaped lightly, and actually jumped down from the Buddha Mother's body that was dozens of meters tall. Amidst the whoosh of the wind, with a bang, he directly smashed a small hole in the ground and knelt on one knee.
Standing up, he took a step forward, and in a flash, he crossed more than ten meters. In just ten seconds, his figure appeared directly in front of the three of them.
"That monster?" AG glanced at the monster in the distance cautiously.
"It's called the Buddha Mother. It can help us get out of here." Garon had no intention of explaining further.
The Buddha Mother was actually a living creature with simple intelligence. Because of its absolute loyalty to the Holy Phoenix, it had been hiding here for countless years without leaving.
"What do you want us to do?" AG shifted his fear of the Buddha Mother to the man in front of him. It was obvious that Garon could now control and influence that extremely powerful big fellow in the distance.
"Not only do we have to use up all of that big fellow's energy to leave this place, we also need to burn a certain amount of energy to support it." Garon purposely said all of its energy, and briefly explained the situation.
"According to the records, there's an even more troublesome existence in the depths of Anil's Garden, but we don't need to go any deeper. This is a typical circular space. If we want to break this cycle, we have to gather our strongest energy at once, converge it at a point in space, and form a distortion and temporary void. Only then can we take the opportunity to leave."
Garon explained. "My strength alone is not enough. Although the Buddha Mother's energy takes up most of the consumption, we only need to fill it up a little. But even this little is not something I can bear alone."
"How can you guarantee that what you say is accurate?" Nasira asked in a low voice.
"We have no other choice." Garon said lightly.
"No need to say more. Let's get ready." AG ordered directly. He was the leader of the three of them, so when he agreed, he immediately set the direction.
