Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The God of Swords Gerald and the Chief Elven Priest were extrely fast and soon t up with the rest of the group leading their respective clansn. After so deliberation, they decided to join the group in their expedition to the Moon River. After a series of discussions, they decided to set up tents and rest for the night before setting off early the next day.
“This ti, I obtained three divinities from the Abyssal Demons, who should I give it to?” Yang Ling sat down cross-legged within the tent, a little hesitant as she looked at the three divinities of the Abyssal Demons he had in his hands.
After having entered the Graveyard of Deities and Demons, the Nine-headed Snake Demon, Corpse Wizard King, and demoness had each obtained divinities and were rapidly absorbing the energy of those divinities with the help of the Black Crystal Marrow, allowing them to understand even deeper laws. Hydra was going to advance to beco a High-level Divine Beast within a short amount of ti, while the Corpse Wizard King and demoness were going to beco Low-level Deities, or even directly advance to beco a Mid-level Deity. It was possible that they would directly beco a High-level Deity.
The divinity harbored the essence of the power of a Divine-level Expert and was filled with rich energy and the person’s understanding of a law. Under normal circumstances, consuming and fusing with the divinity of a Low-level Deity would make a person a Low-level Deity, while consuming and fusing with the divinity of a Mid-level Deity would cause one to advance to beco a Mid-level Deity, and so on and so forth. However, this was not an absolute phenonon. This was especially for those who consud divinities of fighters at an even higher level than what they were supposed to advance into. That would then depend on the person’s fortune and their perceptive ability. To a person or Magical Beast that had abilities of a Domain Expert, consuming the divinity of an Abyssal Demon with abilities of a High-level Deity might cause them to advance to beco a Low-level Deity or directly into a High-level Deity.
Other than the Corpse Wizard King and demoness, there were just too many people in the Magical Beast Army that were at the level of Domain Expert. Magical Beasts like the Burning Fire Elf King, Flying Dragon King, and the purple rat Little Ice were all just one step away from becoming Divine-level Magical Beasts. At that mont, Yang Ling found it hard to decide.
“Forget it. I’ll just have to find a way to kill a few more Abyssal Demons!” After a mont’s hesitation, Yang Ling acted decisively despite the complex situation, quickly coming to a decision. He summoned the Burning Fire Elf King, Dark Dragon King, and Giant Ape King, then let them consu the divinities of the Abyssal Demons.
“Thank you, Sir!”
The three of them were elated when they saw the divinities and Black Crystal Marrow before them. This was especially so for the Burning Fire Elf King. He did not expect to obtain the divinity of the Evil Demon Leader, the most powerful out of the three, and was elated. As long as he managed to incorporate the divinity successfully, he would gain a deeper understanding of the Law of Fire and would be able to absorb more energy stored within the Natural Spirit Fire.
“Over this period of ti, you have to seize the ti to train and try to advance to the divine level as soon as possible. Try to learn the Mighty Beast Domain as soon as possible!” After giving them a few instructions, Yang Ling waved his hand and sent the three back into the Wizard Pagoda’s Space, then silently recited a Wizard Mantra and seized the ti to train.
There was danger lurking in every corner of the Graveyard of Deities and Demons, and Yang Ling had to find a way to boost his strength as soon as possible. It was imperative that he seized the ti to train, but rapidly increasing the battle capabilities of the Magical Beast Army was the key. As long as the Corpse Wizard King, Dark Dragon King, and the rest of the group was able to advance to the divine level and learn the Mighty Beast Domain, they would be able to layer on their strength as the Blood Angels could. Their battle capabilities would definitely be nothing to scoff at!
After toiling for a day, the mbers of the group either seized the ti to train or laid on the ground to sleep. The night soon passed.
“Go go go, let’s go quickly!” Early the next day, Richardson loudly gave the order to set off, leading the group in heading out toward the Sunset Plain ten thousand miles away.
“Be careful, everyone. Stop imdiately if you see raise my right hand!”
Yang Ling summoned a team of Horned Bee Beasts and instructed them to spread out and take note of the situation around them like a scout. After having advanced to beco a Mid-level Deity and obtaining a huge boost in Wizard Power and Soul Energy, he could clearly receive the information relayed back to him by the many Horned Bee Beast within the radius of several dozen miles. He could effectively prevent the group from being the target of the Abyssal Demons’ ambush or surprise attacks.
Buzz...
The Horned Bee Beasts spread out in all directions. Their imnse speed and tiny bodies made them the perfect scouts.
Whoosh...
The black-robed elder Wilcox led the group in front together with two wanderers with abilities of a High-level Deity, while Yang Ling led Hydra and the bald Mammoth Butler in following closely behind. Richardson wielded his giant sword and personally guarded the rear of the group. The group moved fast, leaping past the forest. If there were no accidents, they would arrive at the Sunset Plains in two days.
There was danger lurking in every corner of the Graveyard of Deities and Demons. An average person would take forever to travel ten thousand miles, but it was not too far for powerful fighters like them! If he was alone, Yang Ling was confident that he would reach the location in a day.
“Oh, there’s a situation, stop!” After passing through a forest of pine trees, looking at a faraway hill, Yang Ling suddenly sensed that sothing was off. He quickly raised his right hand and signaled for everyone to stop.
“Yang Ling, what’s going on?” The God Of Swords Gerald whipped out his sharp longsword, quickly rushing to Yang Ling’s side.
“Abyssal Demons, there is a large group of Abyssal Demons in front. Quick, all of you hide, quick!” Yang Ling had a grave expression, speaking as he dived into a shrub by the side. He cald his nerves, trying his best to restrain the ripples of energy in his body.
Seeing Yang Ling take this matter seriously, the rest of the group did not dare be tardy, all of them quickly hiding within the dense forest. They nervously took out their weapons and were extrely cautious, not daring even to take a breath. They had just hidden when a large group of Evil Demons walked out from the hill far away, their foreheads tattooed with a lifelike ball of fla. They were imnsely powerful and were walking toward where the group was.
“Leader ht, in your opinion, who was the one who managed to scatter the souls of those Evil Demons?” An Abyssal Demon wiped the sweat off his forehead and shot a question toward the leader, who was dressed in fiery-red battle armor, beside him.
“If you’re asking , who am I supposed to ask?” The Evil Demon Leader, by the na of ht, shook his head and laughed bitterly, incredibly worried.
More and more people had sward into the area after news that the Great Black-horned Demon was about to awaken. They couldn’t kill enough of them. In these two days, more and more Evil Demons had t with misfortune, with most of their divinities being snatched away by soone else. What was weird was that so of the Evil Demons not only had their divinities snatched away, but their souls had also disappeared without a trace, never returning to the Blood Pool within Evil Demon Castle. This was a rare occurrence in these thousands of years that had passed.
Originally, ht had been leading the elites in patrolling the area near the Moon River and had followed orders to kill wanderers who had infiltrated the area near the river. Unexpectedly, Commander Borgans had suddenly mobilized him here and got him to investigate the matter in secret. In order to find the truth as soon as possible, he had personally gone to the areas where the Evil Demons had t with misfortune and examined it closely, not leaving any clues behind. Unfortunately, he had been unable to find anything, no matter how hard he tried.
“Sir, we Abyssal Demons are different from other people, our souls will automatically return to the Blood Pool in the Evil Demon Castle after we et with misfortune. Even if their souls were crushed after having encountered a powerful enemy, how is it possible that their souls would vanish that completely in such a short amount of ti?” An Evil Demon shook his head and continued, “I suspect that their souls had not been crushed by soone else, but instead, they have been devoured or kept by soone using so ans!”
Devouring souls?
Evil Demon Leader ht trembled, suddenly recalling a terrifying legend with his subordinate’s reminder.
“Ancient Wizard, could the Ancient Wizard in the legends have once again descended unto the Graveyard of Deities and Demons?”
ht was pale, muttering softly to himself. He thought deeply after his shock, then instinctively shook his head. If the terrifying Ancient Wizard had once again appeared in the Graveyard of Deities and Demons, there was no way that he would target the ordinary Abyssal Demons. In the eyes of an average person, the Abyssal Demons that had abilities of a High-level Deity was incredibly powerful, but to the legendary Ancient Wizards, they might as well be no different from fish or shrimp.
“Perhaps those Evil Demons had just coincidentally encountered a powerful fighter who had mastery over the Law of Souls!” ht consoled himself, thinking of another possibility.
There were ancient families in the Dinsion of Death and Chaos Dinsion that specialized in cultivating the Law of Souls, and it was rumored that they could directly crush the souls of their enemies when they trained to a high level. Perhaps those Evil Demons had unfortunately encountered a powerful fighter who had cultivated the Law of Souls, not only getting their divinities snatched away, but also getting their souls scattered quickly.
“Move, move quickly, quick!” ht gave a terse order, leading the Evil Demons as they sped up, quickly disappearing into the forest. With many things weighing his mind, he was completely oblivious to the fact that the large group of people hiding in the nearby foliage, allowing the wanderers who had been so nervous that they almost charged out to make the first move to heave a sigh of relief.
“Quick, let’s leave the area as soon as possible!” After personally witnessing a large group of Abyssal Demons with abilities at the peak of a High-level Deity move pass them before their eyes, even the powerful Richardson was extrely nervous. He desperately wanted to leave this forest as soon as possible, afraid that the other party would suddenly make their way back.
Whoosh...
The group quickly resud their journey, running as fast as they could. It was alright if they encountered a few ordinary Abyssal Demons, but it would be troubleso if they got surrounded by a team of elite Abyssal Demons! Powerful fighters like Yang Ling and Richardson might be able to find a way to escape the embattlent, but the rest of them would not be able to avert the crisis.
“Could it be that the Ancient Wizards had indeed co to the Graveyard of Deities and Demons in the past and fought to the deaths with the many Abyssal Demons?” Yang Ling knit his brows tightly, sensing a terrifying danger.
The Evil Demon Leader ht had muttered very softly, and an average person would not have been able to decipher what he said; However, Yang Ling, whose body had been strengthened ti and again under the effects of the Body Honing Wizard Mantra, had vision and hearing far superior to that of an average person. He had clearly heard what ht had muttered under his breath.
“I have to rember to move the corpses of the Abyssal Demons I kill next ti into the Wizard Pagoda’s Space before I subjugate their souls!” Yang Ling’s mind was racing, quickly thinking of a counterasure. He did not believe that the other party could pin their suspicions onto him after he hid the corpses of the Abyssal Demons and left no trace behind.
