With no ti to think, Wang Chong raised his head and sharply cried out, “You go up first! It’s dangerous here!”
At this mont, the air trembled as the five human-shaped monsters and the giant fire snakes lunged toward Wang Chong.
Fwoosh! Several dozen fire snakes opened their mouths and fired gouts of searing fla at Wang Chong.
But the five human-shaped monsters moved even faster.
Swish! The five scythes sliced through the air from five different directions, each as fast as a lightning bolt.
If struck, Wang Chong would probably be instantly sliced into five.
“Success! Hurry!” the Nightmare Beast suddenly called out in Wang Chong’s mind.
Boom! Wang Chong called out the Heavenly Mandate Battle Armor, exploded with Stellar Energy, and rocketed upward.
Clang! Clang! Two of the scythes bounced off the Heavenly Mandate Battle Armor, but Wang Chong managed to dodge the others.
Down below, the battle did not stop simply because Wang Chong had shot into the air. Bereft of their target, not only did the human-shaped monsters not pursue, they began to attack each other.
tal shrieked against tal as the scythes collided, the human-shaped monsters madly slashing and slicing.
Thud! Thud! It wasn’t long before the human-shaped monsters had beheaded each other and dropped to the ground.
Only one was left standing, but it was also heavily injured. Soon, it dropped to the ground, the black smoke around it fading away.
The Nightmare Beast’s imnse Psychic Energy and natural abilities had finally taken effect.
While Wang Chong had been fighting, the Nightmare Beast had been attempting to find the weakness in these human-shaped monsters. Finally, it had succeeded.
“Don’t let it die! I need to see its mories!” Wang Chong called out just when the human-shaped monster was about to roll into the lava.
Buzz!
The heavily injured monster’s body that was just about to jump into the lava went stiff and then slowly kneeled.
Wang Chong descended from the sky and landed in front of it.
ntal control and reading mories were two completely different abilities. The latter required a far finer control and would deal more damage to the recipient.
Buzz!
Wang Chong reached out and placed his hand on the back of the monster’s head. His eyes flashed as he sent his Psychic Energy rumbling into its mind.
As the Nightmare Beast had already broken in, Wang Chong encountered barely any resistance, only a sliver at the core.
The core containing its mories was only the size of a sesa seed, but it was surrounded by a steely sealing energy.
“I tried to probe this area earlier, but as it had nothing to do with controlling its body and solely concerned mories, I put it aside,” the Nightmare Beast told Wang Chong.
The Nightmare Beast relied purely on its natural talents to devour mories, but it was sowhat lacking when facing special seals added by formidable Psychic Energy practitioners, only able to use brute force. Wang Chong was much more flexible in this aspect.
“What an ancient seal!”
Wang Chong half-closed his eyes and quickly understood the nature of this sealing energy. This was an ancient psychic art called the ‘Ring of Musa’. It was lost in the current era and almost completely unknown, but in the High Priest’s mories, Wang Chong had found information on the Ring of Musa, including the way to undo it, though it was not complete.
Wang Chong imdiately began to form his Psychic Energy into a golden ring covered with complex symbols. The ring trembled before rapidly shrinking into the monster’s mind.
Thump! Wang Chong managed to create a gap in the Ring of Musa for a few monts, allowing him to enter.
It’s a fragnted mind!
A thought suddenly occurred to Wang Chong.
The mories within the Ring of Musa were in tatters, but they all concerned the lives of these monsters.
Wang Chong quickly sent his mind into a ntal fragnt.
“Ah!”
There was a great shout, and then Wang Chong saw countless figures wearing long white robes. They appeared both similar and dissimilar to Arabs, and they spoke in frantic and anxious tones in a language much older than Arabic.
In another direction, Wang Chong saw the human-shaped monster that he was currently controlling.
No! This isn’t so monster, but a pure human!
There appeared to be so conflict between the two sides that had everyone enraged.
Just when the two sides were about to fight, the crowd suddenly parted. Several white-robed n had seized a beautiful veiled woman before the man Wang Chong was controlling. The woman was on the verge of tears, and the man himself felt a deep sorrow.
Wang Chong seed to understand what was going on.
“Ah!”
A mont later, the scene shifted as Wang Chong viewed another ntal fragnt.
It was a room built of tal. Torches had been planted on the wall, illuminating the nurous white skeletons on the ground. Wang Chong saw the man howling and screaming, four chains having bound his limbs to a large bed made of Deep Sea Xuan tal.
A man who appeared to be so sort of shaman was holding a special knife. He was carving symbols on the man’s back while muttering chants. A wriggling black substance was seeping out of the knife and into the man’s body, and wisps of black mist were rising out of his body and slowly engulfing him.
A Shadow Fiend!
Wang Chong suddenly learned the na of this bizarre human-shaped monster.
It was a special thod of creating a guardian, and judging from the bones on the ground, it had a high rate of failure. This man had been one of the ‘lucky’ ones, or perhaps he was unlucky.
The mories after that were in even greater shambles, the scenes growing more and more indistinct.
After so ti, Wang Chong released his palm, allowing the human-shaped monster to fall to the ground.
By breaking the Ring of Musa, Wang Chong had also broken the core that had maintained its life. This ancient human had naturally lost its ability to survive, given all the ti that had passed.
Wang Chong had not managed to gain much information from those chaotic mories, but he had still found so useful clues.
“Now let’s see what sort of secrets are hidden down here!”
Wang Chong quickly flew over the lava flows, and a few monts later, he reached the edge of the region. He focused his energy on his foot and stomped down at a certain place in the lava.
Boom!
At the start, this stomp only caused the lava to seethe, but a mont later, a mighty boom ca from deep within the earth.
A few monts later, a tal pillar with a diater of around half a ter began to rise from the lava.
The tal pillar was covered in dazzling and gorgeous inscriptions. Moreover, as the pillar rose, a mysterious energy began to flow through the air, calming the restless lava.
Wang Chong did not pause, but proceeded to the other three corners of the pyramid and did the sa. With a great rumble, four pillars of identical size but made of different tals erged in the southeast, southwest, northeast, and northwest.
Bang!
Wang Chong slapped one of the tal pillars, upon which gears began to click. A mont later, vast torrents of energy surged into the four pillars.
Soon after that, a massive, fiery barrier took form around the four pillars, and pushed away the surrounding lava.
Wang Chong scanned the area and quickly found a door within the barrier.
The seal has already lost effect. This was probably Khatabah’s doing when he first ventured into this place, Wang Chong quietly said to himself.
It was obvious that Wang Chong was not the first guest to this place.
Having defeated the guardians, Wang Chong was no longer in any danger. He swiftly entered the doorway within the fiery barrier.
The bottom of the well was hot and awash with flas, but when Wang Chong passed through the door, he found the interior to be cool and refreshing.
It’s an ancient ruin! This is what was truly left behind by that ancient civilization! Wang Chong remarked to himself.
As he slowly descended from the air, he allowed the luminescent pearl in his hand to float upward and illuminate his surroundings.
This was a massive underground cavern, its walls made of so hard rock that appeared like jade. This rock was further reinforced by a formation, allowing it to persist despite the many years.
During Wang Chong’s slow descent, he spotted a massive tal sphere in the center of the cavern, and then he noticed that the walls were covered in countless words and murals.
Nobody alive could understand the words, but he could still look at the murals.
