Chapter 1224: Chapter 541: 2 Lies, 1 Truth_4
No more destruction power approached, nor did any force attempt to harm Augustus.
Success!
I have gained this Primordial Spirit, and it indeed can ensure my safety!
The cause of everything was just a small lie.
——The enemy being too naive is also a boring affair.
Ignoring the curses coming from behind him, Augustus didn’t care about the techniques pursuing and attacking him.
“Can we really enter the Eternal Technique?”
He asked.
“Quack, it’s a piece of cake.” The duck said.
“Let’s go!”
Augustus and the duck rushed into the blazing pillar of light ford by the Eternal Technique.
The glorious and surging light imdiately enveloped them.
But they seed to be assimilated by the power from the duck’s body.
Standing in the light with the duck, they were unhard!
Correspondingly——
The attacks released by Baxter and the Ship of Destruction struck the eternal light pillar without causing even the slightest ripple!
——I am safe!
“Hahaha!”
Augustus couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
“Shall we get the battle armor?”
The duck communicated telepathically.
“Let’s go!” Augustus elegantly bowed towards Baxter outside the light pillar and, with the duck, began descending.
Amidst the furious curses of Baxter and the Ship of Destruction——
Augustus delved deeper into the Heavenly Pit.
Together with the duck, they descended towards the deepest part of the pit.
Their fall was swift.
A few seconds later.
Baxter and the Ship of Destruction were no longer visible beyond the pit.
But it didn’t matter.
The duck continually emitted both destructiveness and eternality, enveloping itself and Augustus, ensuring their mutual safety.
One man and one duck continued to fall.
A few hours later——
They finally reached the deepest part of the Destruction Abyss and the Eternal Sky Pit.
To their surprise, there was a lake here.
Though called a lake, it wasn’t an ordinary lake.
Here, the eternal force was so rich that it converged to form a perpetual, never-diminishing lake of light!
The power radiating from this lake was not weaker than the Destruction Abyss!
“Incredible…”
Augustus sighed in amazent.
——Originally, he had deceived Baxter, but unexpectedly, there truly was an anomaly below.
“Quack!”
The duck also let out a low chirp.
——Originally, it had deceived Augustus, but unexpectedly, there truly was an anomaly below.
Perhaps this is the reason the Truth Phone was activated?
“Where is the battle armor you ntioned?”
Augustus asked.
“At the bottom of the lake——or so the legend goes, but as you can see, it’s my first ti here too, and I’ve never seen such a magnificent source-of-power lake.” The duck communicated telepathically.
——Its voice carried a sense of sincerity, along with a hint of gratitude.
“I see… Then I’ll wait here, and you go find it.”
Augustus said.
At such a mont, he remained as cautious as ever.
——Never recklessly risk oneself in an unfamiliar place!
He attempted to cast a ban-related magic on the duck.
Actually, he shouldn’t have done this.
It would reduce mutual trust.
But in the face of life and death, trust doesn’t matter anymore.
The technique in Augustus’s hands quickly gathered——but soon, his power was dispersed by the endless eternal force.
——The eternal force here was too overwhelming, making it impossible to cast Truth Magic!
Augustus sighed in frustration.
He had the Twenty-first Rank Truth Technique, and he could have forced it earlier.
But the power here was too formidable; should anything react adversely, it would be disastrous.
Forget it.
He consoled himself.
There’s only a lake here.
Even if the duck wanted to flee, there’s nowhere to hide!
“Quack, alright! I’ll go have a look!”
The duck quacked, flapping its wings to envelop Augustus in eternal force, temporarily sheltering him, before flying towards the water.
This reassured Augustus a bit.
The duck flew to the lake, diving headfirst into the water, quickly disappearing from sight.
The entire lake radiated a dazzling strong light.
It was utterly impossible to detect what might be at the bottom of the lake.
——Only this dual-elent Primordial Spirit could probably probe a bit.
Augustus pondered silently.
One breath.
Two breaths.
Three breaths.
Just as a bit of unease arose in his heart, the duck suddenly surfaced.
“I saw the battle armor!”
The duck exclaid.
Relieved inexplicably, Augustus said, “Bring them up.”
“No way, they’re too heavy——they’re in a box.”
The duck shook its head.
“…Let see.” Augustus said.
He approached the lake, dipping only his head into the water, looking in the direction the duck indicated.
There really is a big box at the bottom of the lake.
It’s a rectangular tal box, and the tal lid is also rectangular, tightly locked.
“I can’t use my Talent Technique here, and even with my Strength, I can’t move it!”
The duck said loudly.
Indeed…
Even I can’t cast any Technique here.
A duck-like Primordial Spirit really can’t move such a heavy tal box.
Augustus raised his head and took out the Storage Ring.
But the spatial fluctuation of the ring was directly erased by the Eternal Power.
It simply couldn’t be opened.
“Looks like there’s no way.” The duck watched the ring in his hand with a trace of disdain.
Augustus fell into slight silence.
Even a duck dares to look down on ?
—You think there’s no way for , is that it?
He subrged his head back into the water, carefully observing the entire lake.
There was nothing in the lake.
Safe.
Then—
If I appear wearing this Battle Armor in front of it one day, that would indeed be interesting.
“I’ll go down myself.”
Augustus said.
“Be careful, the Eternal Power here is quite intense, I need to cast an extra layer of eternal protection for you.” The duck said.
“Thanks a lot.” Augustus said.
Once the duck finished bestowing, he sank into the water, slowly diving toward the box.
All the while gripping the Withering Staff, ready to cast Technique at any ti.
But nothing happened.
—There’s only and the duck here.
In the end, nothing can survive long in such a high intensity of great power.
Augustus continued swimming forward.
The duck cautiously guarded him from the side, so vigilant that even the slightest noise would make it look in the noise’s direction.
Augustus found it amusing, sending a telepathic ssage:
“No need to be tense, that person can’t co down here.”
“I’m afraid the Lord of Abyss will return—this is its restricted area, no existence is ever allowed to approach.” The duck telepathically replied.
Augustus nodded slightly.
Right.
If I were the Lord of Abyss, I wouldn’t allow anyone to co near this place either.
But right now, the Lord of Abyss is fighting with the Soul Capturing Net.
Neither side will concede to the other.
Last ti, they held back because of Earth’s presence.
This ti.
They’ll have quite a ti grappling.
“Don’t worry, we’ll grab the item and leave without any issues for now.”
Augustus said.
Yet the duck still looked a bit tense, constantly glancing around.
Augustus no longer concerned himself with this Primordial Spirit.
He was right above the box!
Taking a deep breath, Augustus grasped the rectangular lid and forcefully lifted it—
A sudden wave of imnse power surged forth.
Augustus couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
It’s the Contract backlash!
Why now, of all tis!
He clutched the Withering Staff tightly, ready to cast Technique at any mont, but quickly switched to holding it ready for lee combat instead.
—No Technique can be cast here!
“Are you okay, what happened?” The duck’s voice reached.
The surroundings were quiet.
There was nothing.
Only the duck.
Augustus, enduring the pain of his soul from the backlash, forced a smile:
“I’m fine, I’ll be okay soon.”
A sudden change occurred—
The box suddenly jumped up—no, it was lifted by a Giant, who imdiately placed Augustus inside.
Augustus remained calm, ready to fight back imdiately.
But everything around him changed in an Instant.
He found himself in a realm of complete void and darkness.
In the distance.
Countless Destruction Servants quietly appeared within the endless dark void.
Horrifying auras ca from outside the world.
—Where is this place?
Augustus couldn’t help but wonder.
But there was no ti to think anymore—
Endless Destruction Beams swept forth, just like every ti they purged life from the Eternal World.
“Damn.”
Augustus uttered.
On the other side.
The bottom of the Eternal Lake.
“Finished, Uncle Qi.” The duck said.
The Giant squatted on the ground, still observing the treasure chest.
“You’re too deceitful; it was clearly a door, yet you disguised it as a treasure chest and tricked people.” Uncle Qi said.
“I have to survive sohow.” The duck retorted.
It opened its mouth and spat.
A small object imdiately floated in the lake water.
—This was the real treasure of the Eternal Lake!
As soon as it dived down earlier, it instantly spotted this astonishing object!
