After the two parties left, the valley returned to silence from the brief clamor. But soon, the peace was once again broken by the newcomers.
Brando was the first to step into the basin, followed by Delfien, Huang Huo, and the rest. The little female dragon ran from the back to the front, while Magadal was at the back of the team, escorting the two sisters.
This world woven by the Lines of Law was not covered by any vegetation, so Brando could see the structure of the basin between the hills at a glance. The whole world was dark, and the ground was like a transparent glass plate above the abyss. The silver Lines of Law formed the undulations of the surface. In the distance, it formed a dry river valley.
Brando stopped. He first saw the huge crystal ball in the basin, and then a look of confusion appeared on his face.
"What's wrong?" The prime minister's daughter followed behind him and noticed the slight change in Brando's emotions and asked.
Brando shook his head. He felt that he had been here before. Maybe it was because he was too nervous these days, he thought. Ever since the trip to the Elemental Frontier, he rarely had the chance to relax.
Aloz had already run down the mountain. She stopped not far away, raised her head and sniffed her small nose, and then shouted, "Stinky human, Flora has been here before!"
Brando was not surprised by this answer. The group went down the basin, and Magadal looked around. In fact, there was nothing to see in this barren environment, but people would always be subconsciously vigilant in an unfamiliar environment. Huang Huo, Ling, and Lian clustered around her, making the nun princess look like a nanny of the monastery.
"This world reflects the barren and lifeless world. Mr. Brando, what kind of world is behind it, to reflect such a scene in the World of Law?"
"A completely dead world," Aloz replied as she looked back from afar. "The Stagnant Realm is that dead world. It is even more lifeless than the legendary Kingdom of the Dead because it is a completely still world. After it was abandoned by the gods, this world's time has always been stagnant at that last moment."
"Speaking of which," the little female dragon replied, stroking her chin, "it should be the war that created this scene, a war that has lasted since time immemorial, so tragic that it is beyond all of our imaginations. If Vaunte cannot escape this fate, it will eventually fall into the same world."
Magadal frowned and bit her lip. "I hope we can defeat the Twilight Dragon. Wohnde will not become like this."
Aloz glanced at her. She did not tell her that Wohnde's Elemental Boundary had collapsed. If it were not for Brando and the Sages of the previous era, this world would not be far from such a scene.
"My teacher said that we cannot give up resisting. The Way of the Sword also told me that even in a desperate situation, we must stay true to our hearts." Huang Huo replied quietly. "The descendants of the Jade Phoenix will not give up without a fight. We will resist until the last moment."
Magadal thought of the Holy Cathedral of Fire. Was the Way of the Golden Flame not the same? The legacy left behind by the four Sages was inherited by their descendants. There must be some outstanding people among them who would have the same understanding, right?
She raised her head and looked at Brando who was not far away.
Ling and Lian did not speak. They only listened to the others quietly. Things about the Twilight Dragon were too far away from the world they were familiar with. Fortunately, the two sisters had always been calm in the face of danger, while Lian was intelligent and had already blended in with the others.
Mr. Liu inspected the magic circle in the valley under Brando's guidance.
The latter was a little surprised. There were many mages in the Nine Phoenix. As a member of the noble circle, he was naturally immersed in the knowledge of magic. "The magic circle here is directly based on the laws of this place. This is the first time I have seen such a method. Could it be that the magic circle can rely on something other than a physical object?"
"The magic circle itself is the embodiment of the laws." Brando was not surprised. Wohnde was the origin of modern magic, and the magic civilization was much more prosperous than the Nine Phoenix. Their theoretical knowledge was far ahead of the latter. "In fact, Tuman invented a magic circle that does not rely on a physical object, which is his elemental pattern. However, it took a long time for this method to be passed down to the mortals."
He paused and looked at the magic circle hidden in the entire valley. "But the magic circle here is not the work of mortals. It is the masterpiece of the Bugas. This magic circle is only the core part of a huge magic circle, but it is also the most sophisticated."
Aloz heard this from the front and could not help but turn around and look at Brando curiously. "Hey, I remember you were only a third-rate Elementalist. Stinky human, how did you see the structure of the magic circle here?"
What was a third-rate Elementalist? He was only a part-time Elementalist because he had no other choice. But this little female dragon's mouth was too vicious. Brando took a long time to react and replied snappily, "This is Lute's knowledge."
Aloz looked left and right, only to find that the little fairy had disappeared.
"Tsk." She snorted softly and said with dissatisfaction, "I also saw the structure of this magic circle. This should be the magic circle that sealed Akentu. So that's how it is, it was sealed in the Stagnation Realm. No wonder it was in such a hurry to unlock the seal of the Stagnation Realm. It was to get out of there. "
Aloz's face showed a troubled look again. "But if that's the case, isn't it troublesome? Should we enter the Stagnation Realm? Will that release that guy?"
"Isn't that demon no match for Mr. Brando?" Lotus asked curiously.
"Stinky human, you only killed one of Akentu's avatars. The strength of the sheep-headed demon itself was not bad. After all, it was a famous demon lord under the Scorching River. It was one of the main commanders of the Twilight Dragon Legion at that time."
"Its true body," Aloz looked at everyone present and replied word by word, "None of us here are a match for it. It should be at least the strength of a demigod."
"Then what should we do?" The Nun Princess asked nervously.
"Don't worry." Brando waited for the little female dragon to finish speaking before he said, "Things may not be that bad. I think Akentu's sealed place may not be the Stagnation Realm."
"Stinky human, but this Magic Circle is obviously …" Aloz raised her eyebrows and said unhappily.
"It has nothing to do with the Magic Circle. Have you forgotten Flora?"
Hearing the name Flora, the little female dragon obediently shut her mouth, but she still stared fiercely at Brando with her big golden eyes, as if if the latter did not give a reasonable explanation, she would jump up and bite him.
Brando's heart skipped a beat as he was stared at by this fellow, and quickly replied, "The Twilight Dragon sent Flora and the others here, it may not be to unlock the seal for Akentu." In this regard, Brando still insisted on his opinion. "Otherwise, there would be no need for Akentu to fight with Flora and the others. I think we should stick to our previous deduction, the two sides must have different goals and interests."
"Is Miss Flora really here for the Stagnation Realm?" Magadal asked.
This time, it was the Prime Minister's daughter who answered in place of Brando. Although Delfien did not speak much along the way, this did not mean that she was indifferent, but her attention had been focused on the riddle of the Emerald.
In fact, she agreed with Brando's opinion.
"My Lord's opinion is most likely correct. If we can't think of other possibilities, without the support of logic, we should choose a more logical deduction," Delfien said. "If that's the case, Akentu's goal can't be to unlock the seal of the Stagnation Realm. Or at least, it's not just that."
"If the interests of both sides are the same, no matter how chaotic the demons are, they will not panic."
"What if they are just putting on a show for us?"
"Is that necessary?"
"Alright," Aloz said dejectedly. She actually did not care about this problem, but she was afraid that if things went wrong, Flora and the others who might have fallen into Akentu's hands would be in even more danger.
Although that was just one of Brando's deductions, the dragoness actually agreed with this deduction. Her worries were similar to Brando's, she did not want Akentu to become stronger because the seal was broken.
But now, it was obvious that it was impossible not to take the risk. She sighed. "You've convinced me. What do we do next? Enter the Stagnation Realm directly?"
"No, I don't support that!"
A sharp voice sounded. Everyone looked up and found that it was Lute who had flown back.
The little fairy descended from the sky and landed on Lotus's shoulder. His face was bright red and it was obvious that he had flown quite a distance. Then the little fairy said to the others, "This magic circle is just as Mr. Brando had guessed. Its place of seal is not in the Stagnation Realm, or else the magic circle would not be on this Moons Channel. I think the Bugas sealed Akentu in the plane between the Stagnation Realm and the Moons Channel, and cleverly used this magic circle to form a door. The Lord of the Purgatory had been the gatekeeper of the Bugas for thousands of years. "
"I don't quite understand, Mr. Lute," Magadal asked. "Is there a gap between worlds?"
