Chapter 191 (1/2)
191 – Crown of Blasphemy
The Life Embodiment Bead was the treasure Yang Feng had gotten a hold of after crossing the planar pa.s.sageway in Gloom Cave’s headquarters.
Yang Feng had not known what kind of treasure the Life Embodiment Bead was. Nevertheless, he was still careful while wearing it around his neck. Now that he knew that it was a treasure for which even Glorious Dawn Warlocks would go crazy for, he felt secretly elated.
A trace of a scorching radiance flashed across Yang Feng’s eyes, saying solemnly: “Brother Kong, can you teach me the method for separating one’s blood-meridians and divinity from one’s true body and then condense it into an embodiment?”
Kongfang Ao hesitated.
“I am well aware of the custom! According to the custom, a corresponding price has to be paid when trading secret methods and knowledge among Warlocks. This is a level-4 extraordinary life form rank mechanical golem, is it enough to be exchanged for the method?”
Yang Feng pressed the dimensional crest on his chest. Suddenly, a Fire Lion mechanical battle beast appeared, releasing formidable, Great Warlock rank fluctuations of power.
Kongfang Ao said apologetically: “This secret method is not anything special, and can be imparted by some of Great Cloud Empire’s mid-ranked sects. However, when practicing cultivation in the sect, I had once vowed that I would never impart the knowledge taught by the sect without permission. Therefore, I am very sorry, but I cannot impart you with this secret method.”
There was a look of disappointment on Yang Feng’s face. He lowered his head, and fell into a state of deep contemplation.
Kongfang Ao comforted: “However, Brother Yang, if you come to the continent, I can give you a letter of recommendation to enter Heavenly Garments Sect to practice cultivation. Although Heavenly Garments Sect is not part of Great Cloud Empire’s Ten Great Sects, yet it is still a first-rate sect only second to the Ten Great Sects. In the sect, secret methods are aplenty, with the method to separate blood-meridians and divinity into an embodiment not being anything special.”
Yang Feng suddenly asked: “Right, Brother Kong, you have just mentioned 7 Great Warlock Emperors having overwhelming power. But did we not have 8 Great Warlock Dynasties?”.
Kongfang Ao sneered, saying: “Heh heh! Dawn Dynasty’s Dawn Emperor was far too inferior, how can he even be mentioned on equal terms with the 7 Great Warlock Emperors?”
After sneering, Kongfang Ao added: “Brother Yang, although the Dawn Emperor was nothing special, but in the end, he was still one of humanity’s strongest experts; I do not want to speak ill of him.”
Yang Feng mused, before saying: “Brother Kong, I want to go to the continent together with you. What do you think?”
Originally, Yang Feng had intended to stay in Turandot Subcontinent, and to dominate the entire subcontinent. He wanted to painstakingly practice cultivation. He would go to the continent after practicing cultivation until the Great Warlock boundary.
However, now that he had realized that things were not too rea.s.suring, Yang Feng was forced to leave to go to the continent to look for ways to resolve the hidden dangers inside him.
Kongfang Ao smiled brightly and said: “Alright! Three months later, a fleet of the Crying-Phoenix Merchant Group will come to Turandot Subcontinent to do business. At that time, we can go together to the continent.”
Ten days later, the City of Dark Elves, inside of the G.o.ddess Lolth’s shrine.
Many dark elves were prostrated on the ground, praying.
Yang Feng stood in a corner of the G.o.ddess Lolth’s temple, quietly watching the scene. Via his gla.s.ses, he could see traces of faith power coming out of those dark elves, and then enter G.o.ddess Lolth’s statue, resulting in the statue releasing a faint layer of divine light.
Two people stood behind Yang Feng, namely Joana and Romulaj.
After finis.h.i.+ng their prayers, the dark elves respectfully left the temple.
Romulaj was a bit dissatisfied, saying: “Have you come to see the prayer? Is there any point to it?”
Romulaj was a legendary a.s.sa.s.sin, she was extremely powerful, and had no faith in the G.o.ddess Lolth. Joana was a legendary archer, and equally had no faith in the G.o.ddess Lolth.
Among dark elves, apart from the Priestesses raised in the temple, the more powerful they were, the more they disdained the G.o.ddess Lolth. No one would like a G.o.d who constantly sowed discord among their kind for their own amus.e.m.e.nt.
In order to gain strength, the bottom rung of dark elves rather piously believed in the G.o.ddess Lolth. To such a darkness G.o.d, as long as one offered enough flesh, blood, and souls as sacrifices, the believer would be generously rewarded in terms of power.
G.o.ds had great use for faith power and souls. Among many G.o.ds, all kinds of transactions were conducted using powerful souls as currency.
“Let me show you the power of Steel City’s latest black technology product – the Crown of Blasphemy.”
Yang Feng smiled, put on a black crown, and approached the statue of the G.o.ddess Lolth’s.
