Chapter 720: DesertTranslator: Yukidaruma Translations Editor: Yukidaruma Translations

At the borders of the Eastern Sand Region’s Sand Country…

In a karst cave that was over 500 meters away from the surface, a faint light flickered continuously in the darkness.

That weak light was the Fifth Prince’s martial will. After being seriously injured by Fang Xingjian, his power was now weaker than even that of an ordinary Knight. This was especially because his physical body had been destroyed and his martial will continued to dissipate and weaken.

However, in this underground karst fave, streams of gray light were emitting waves of feelings of vengeance and hatred, as well as agonizing cries. All of them were gushing out toward the Fifth Prince, continuously patching up his injuries and even slowly increasing his power.

Seven days and seven nights passed by. In the blink of an eye, he once again reached the level of a Conferred Knight. Then he continued to recover his power to the Demigod level and striving for the Divine level following that.

After all, the Fifth Prince had achieved that realm previously. As long as the power of his martial will continued to recover, he would naturally be able to regain Divine level power.

On another side of the karst cave, there was a mysterious lady in palace clothings. Her face was covered with a veil. She was the Fifth Prince’s mother, Lady Velia.

Standing next to her was a man wearing white robes and a crown, with a mysterious and distant aura, just like that of an ancient god. The man’s skin felt extremely dry and bleak, just like the desert above their heads.

This man was the current monarch of the Sand Country—the Sacred Fire Order’s Patriarch.

The Sand Country was founded through religion, and the person wielding power was the Sacred Fire Order’s Papal State. The King could be changed every year, but there would only be one Patriarch.

This Sacred Fire Order’s Patriarch ruled over millions and millions of people, as well as countless countries in the desert. In terms of resources, he even had more than Alexander. He also possessed the legacy of the Sand Country’s founder—Heavenly Sovereign of the Blood Sea. His cultivation was deep and unfathomable. It had been over 30 years since he had taken any action.

No one knew how powerful the Sacred Fire Order’s Patriarch had become. It was because he was a godlike existence across the entire desert. No one dared to fight him, nor was there a need for him to deal with anyone.

The Sacred Fire Order’s Patriarch said calmly, “This place is an ancient battlefield relic from 1,000 years ago. Over the 1,000 years, the martial will of countless experts turned into information remnants and were left behind here. It’s true that using the power of these souls, which have been left behind over a period of 1,000 years, to strengthen oneself will allow a person to improve at a tremendous rate, but aren’t you afraid that he will become a lunatic?”

“If he can’t even pass this little trial, then he doesn’t deserves to be my son,” Lady Velia said coldly.

“He won’t fail,” another female voice rang out from behind the two people just as they were speaking. Amidst a cyan 1 light, Chaos Witch Lamia walked out.

The eyes of the Sacred Fire Order’s Patriarch narrowed. “Chaos Witch…”

It was only because of the Chaos Witches’ being the middleman that Lady Veila and the Sacred Fire Order’s Patriarch were willing to join hands this time.

“Chaos Witch, based on what I know, this Fifth Prince’s ‘fortunate encounters’ have always had a connection to you. Why, is he the person you Chaos Witches have chosen?” The Sacred Fire Order’s Patriarch asked indifferently.

Chaos Witch Lamia smiled. There was an endless mystery behind that smile, and her figure was like a fog, an illusion darting around the karst cave’s walls. She even passed through Lady Veila’s and the Patriarch’s bodies. There was nothing that stood in her way.
