Half an hour later...

As they left the office of the Provisional Military Affairs Division, Lin Sheng and the rest of the delegates bore a grim look.

“That’s too much!” An elder holding a silver cane brought his cane down and made a small hole in the ground.

“Elder Xu, we already know what the Redwinian army wants. This announcent will affect our territory and operations in a few nearby cities. So, how about we et up for a drink and discuss it?”

A red-haired man with a worried look in the crowd suggested.

“Yeah, we barely have the ti to et up. At least, one good thing ca out of this whole Redwinian debacle. It has allowed all of us to et face to face.” A man who looked like a welder rumbled.

“What Master Baen said.”

“Set a ti, then.”

A few others joined in, but most of them were like Lin Sheng, standing there without saying anything.

Lin Sheng swept his gaze around. Among the crowd, were gang lords, martial artists, and so corporate bosses. He even saw two people in working clothes entering the office.

Regardless of their getup, everyone there had a powerful presence.

However, he was not bothered to speak with those people. With his holy power, he could tell that most of them were normal civilians, while a few were like him, possessing an aura of transcendence.

He was not interested in talking to those Transcendents either.

What he lacked now, was not connections, but strength.

Before such mighty power, only by having enough strength would one get more options in his choices and survival.

So, Lin Sheng only exchanged contacts with a few of them before he left.

The only place that could allow him to grow exponentially, was the dream.

...

“Huhh...”

Lin Sheng woke up from the darkness.

He once again stood inside the cell of the Fay Vault, the sa position where he found the purple rift.

The cold mist within the vault slowly spread, flowed and changed.

The ground was hard and cold, as a bone-chilling cold radiated from the ground up.

“After so many tis, there’s nothing to gain from this, all of my attempts ended with dying inside the light... seems like my arrival here is due to so other unknown thod.”

Lin Sheng looked at the rift beneath him, and this ti around, he did not enter it. Rather he turned around and went to the lowest level of the vault.

Even if he did not continue to look for an exit, the ti he had spent here ant that the duration was almost up. Based on his previous two experiences, he would probably be leaving one of these few days.

Since that was the case, he decided to go over to the bottom level to check things out.

And soon, the grey mist got thicker and thicker as Lin Sheng made his way to the green pool.

The deep erald pool was the sa as last ti, with nary a ripple.

Lin Sheng walked along the pool to look for clues, and he did not believe there was nothing about that monster at the bottom of the pool.

He needed to at least find out what he was up against.

He rummaged through the wooden shelves around him but ca up with nothing. He then made his way to the cell at the end of the tunnel.

Lin Sheng had pulled a massive skeleton out from there and provoked the limb-faced monster at the bottom of the pool

He continued on deeper. Inside the cells on his sides, there were a few oddly shaped bones, so had missing parts while so had withered so badly that they crumbled upon contact.

Lin Sheng continued on to the wall at the end. As he looked at the wall, he noticed an intricate disc that looked like the sun. There were nurous bizarre runes on it.

Even though he had absorbed so many mories, he did not understand a thing on that.

“Oh, right... it was nothing but purple in that cell I was in. what about this? This is the deepest part of the vault, will there be anything behind this wall?”

As this thought ca to mind, Lin Sheng sprang into action. He imdiately went to pluck a stiff monster bone out of the cell around him. As he held the bone, he stood before the wall and focused his strength.

He then swung his right arm forward.

*Bam!!*

The sharp bone bit deep into the wall as if puncturing a thin mbrane.

“There’s sothing!” Lin Sheng was surprised and quickly pulled out the bone.

A greenish gap appeared on the wall.

Lin Sheng imdiately used the bone as a tool to widen the gap, as for the intricate disc on the wall, he did not have the mind to bother about it now.

And a mont later, he had dug out a human-sized oval hole.

The green light from the gap was thicker and brighter now.

Lin Sheng tossed the ruined bone aside and peered into the gap.

It was a massive stone hall that glowed in green.

The hall was rectangular, with grey statues holding axes standing tall all around.

The statues were all carved to look like solemn warriors in heavy armor. The battle-axes in their hands were also different from normal axes. They were much larger than your usual battle-ax, more akin to a war hamr.

And each statue stood six ters tall.

All around the wall were wave-like rune patterns. Lin Sheng had only taken a glance but to his surprise, he found that he understood them.

“Are these...ancient Rhen?” He was astonished.

He then looked to the center of the hall. There was a massive stone table and a chair there, and on it, was a massive four-ter-tall statue.

And what intrigued Lin Sheng was the weapon on his lap.

It was a massive battle-ax that radiated with a green light.

The ax was about two ters long, with a massive haft, and the ax blade the size of a head. For that grey stone statue, however, the ax looked tiny in his hands, just like a small throwing ax.

The ax was double-bladed, and on its side was a prism-shaped engraving made out of green lines. The engravings along the line had all sorts of Ancient Rhen markings representing, holiness, steadfastness, shackles, suppression and the likes.

Lin Sheng had only taken a cursory glance and felt sothing was not right.

That ax and the statue, alongside the other guardian-like statues, seed to be protecting sothing.

*Crack...*

And just as he was about to step away, the eyes of the grey stone statue in the middle of the hall lit up as pieces upon pieces of grey debris fell off his body.

*Creak...*

The statue slowly rose from the stone chair, as it held the massive double-bladed battle-ax with both hands
