As expected … it was just a scam.
Hackzord stood in mid-air and gazed at the northern sea.
He had been searching along the coastline of the Land of Dawn for hundreds of kilometers, not only to the end of the ridge of the continent, but also to the two sides of the ridge.
As the description in the letter was vague, in order not to miss the legendary Bottomless Land, he had covered nearly every possible region, stopping only at the sea of clouds that connected to the Blackstone region. But even so, he was unable to find the "isolated island" mentioned in the letter.
Thinking about it, there was nothing to block the sea, and in the clear blue sky, he could see everything within a thousand kilometers. If there really was such a strange island, his race would have seen it when they marched from the Blackstone region to the Land of Dawn. Why would they wait for him to discover it?
Hackzord could not help but clench his fists.
Darned humans, how dare they deceive the Sky Lord! What was even more unforgivable was that they actually used the name of Valkries!
It was impossible for a Nightmare Lord to betray his race, and the only reason why the humans were able to do so was to extract his memories. Even though he did not know when the group of Witches obtained such an ability, it was obvious what happened to Valkries.
A wave of indignant anger surged into its chest.
He suddenly opened the Distortion Door and stepped onto the sea.
"What Bottomless Land, what Realm of Mind is right here, it's all bullshit!"
Hackzord roared as he traversed the vast sea, as though he wanted to vent the dissatisfaction that had been accumulating in his heart for a long time.
"How can the domain that belongs to God be in such an ordinary place, I should have thought of it long ago!"
"Couldn't I have just activated the Deity of Gods and killed all the humans … Why did I have to take the risk to infiltrate the depths of the Realm of Mind? Great, a grand lord actually became bait for humans to manipulate, and even implicated me to be doubted by the King. How foolish! "
"I will definitely take revenge!"
Sky Lord suddenly froze in place, still in his roaring state.
The surface of the sea that was sparkling just a moment ago had turned hazy and unclear. Unknowingly, a white mist had appeared in the surroundings, causing visibility to drop to a radius of several meters.
I barged into the mist?
That's not right … Even if it's a ball of mist, I shouldn't have been completely unaware of it.
Hackzord took a step back, and the sea became clear again. It turned around and saw that the sea was quiet a few miles away, and it could see the end of the sea-line.
The indignation in his heart suddenly disappeared without a trace.
What replaced it was an uncontrollable chill.
This place was not too far away from the Land of Dawn and the Blackstone Region. In the past hundreds of years, no one had actually noticed this phenomenon?
After hesitating for a while, it activated its ability again and entered the sea.
But this time, it was much more cautious.
After passing through the door, the damp fog quickly enveloped them.
Hackzord lowered his altitude and slowly moved against the waves. At the same time, he raised his vigilance to the maximum. Not long after, a black shadow vaguely appeared in front of it.
It was indeed an island, and judging from its silhouette, it wasn't small at all.
It flew to the edge of the island and landed, its feet stepping on the grassy ground.
This … is the place Valkries mentioned?
Hackzord surveyed its surroundings, but other than the fog, it couldn't see anything.
After weighing its condition, it decided to search the island on foot. Not long ago, it had just changed its breathing tank, so it still had an ample supply of Red Mist. There was a supply line for the tribe on the sea of clouds, and there were two standing sentry posts at the junction of the Land of Dawn and the Blackstone Region. With its ability, the possibility of an accident happening was not high.
After walking for a few hundred steps, the scenery gradually changed. There were more stone tablets in the grass, and the number was increasing gradually. These things, which were clearly carved by living creatures, meant that the island wasn't a forbidden zone that no one had set foot in. Hackzord inspected a few of the tablets and realized that the words on them were not one that he was familiar with.
"Hello," someone suddenly said.
In that instant, Sky Lord felt his hair stand on end! Without hesitation, he opened a Distortion Door and leaped into the air. At the same time, he prepared to counterattack.
However, the person who spoke did not attack him from behind.
It was actually a member of the same tribe.
Judging from its appearance, it was at least a high-level ascendant. Its body had completely erased the roughness of a Primal Demon and a Junior Demon. It was highly evolved, and even its fingers and hair could be clearly seen. It wore a light white muslin, and its feet were bare. Its hands were behind its back, and its tone and expression were very easygoing. It did not have the sharp aura of a superior at all.
"I'm the senior lord, Sky Lord. Who are you? And when did you come to the island? "Hackzord asked while maintaining a distance." Is there a supply of Red Mist here? "
"I'm just a guardian." It laughed softly. "As for the time I've been here, I can't remember."
"Guardian?" Hackzord tried to recall, but he could not find any high-level ascendant with such a title in his memory. As for it being so long that he couldn't remember, that was even more ridiculous. Before the first Battle of Divine Will, the tribe had yet to set foot in the northern end of the Land of Dawn. How could it have lived alone on this isolated island?
"That's right. That's why I'm not a member of your tribe. I'm not the one who decided on this form, but you," the guardian replied softly. "I know it's hard to understand, but that's the truth."
Since it wasn't a member of his tribe, it could be an enemy. Furthermore, Hackzord noticed that it wasn't wearing a helmet, and there were no signs of it being connected to a breathing tank. This was equivalent to confirming its words.
Therefore, Sky Lord's vigilance increased.
"This is the Bottomless Land? Where's the Realm of Mind? "
The guardian shook its head. "This is only a bridge. A key is needed to open it."
"What kind of key?"
It paused for a moment, as though in thought. "… In your words, a complete legacy item."
When the legacy shards were reunited, the path that led to the Origin of Magic would be revealed. Wasn't this similar to the revelation passed down by the tribe!? Hackzord immediately felt his heart jolt. He could already tell that this fellow couldn't speak properly. It had to fabricate strange titles to show that it was different from Mask.
Be it a bridge or a path, there was a high chance that they were referring to the same thing! Hackzord felt that his brain had never operated at such a high speed before. "Can you bring me to see … that bridge?"
The guardian hesitated for a moment and looked towards the north. "That's possible, but you have to be quick. There's not much time left …"
After following it for a few minutes, a gigantic pit appeared in front of Hackzord.
"This … is the bridge?" It was taken aback.
"Yes. Not everyone can cross this bridge. You don't have the key, so you can't see its existence."
What bridge and path? The tribe's description isn't any better!
This was clearly a sinkhole!
But when he thought of the rumors of the Bottomless Land, it was rather apt.
Then, is the Realm of Mind at the bottom of the pit?
Hackzord had absolutely no interest in jumping down to investigate. Since it was said to be bottomless, who knew if he could fly out again.
But this did not mean that he had to verify it.
He took out a five-colored magic stone from his armor.
According to the underground civilization's research, this item could reflect the relationship between an Awakened and the Origin of Magic. If the Bottomless Land was really the place where all things were born and ended, then it was impossible for there to be no activity at all.
Hackzord held his breath and placed the magic stone in front of his eyes.
Following that, he saw an extremely dazzling pillar of light!
No … To be precise, there were countless of them!
They gathered from all directions and finally gathered here, looking like a "Tree of Light" that blotted out the sky and the sun. The pillars of light that were evenly scattered around the world formed its crown and branches, and the part that gathered together and shot straight into the bottom of the pit was its trunk. As it was too bright, the trunk's color was almost incandescent. It was almost impossible to look at it directly!
Even though he knew nothing about the meaning of the pillars of light, he could feel the shock that came from the depths of his heart.
