Chapter 766: 766
The group they had encountered had been experts from the Corrupt path . The two sides had started a fierce battle, but they had been startled to find that there were countless experts that continued to surge out without end .
Shui Wuhen guessed that Wilde and Cang Ming had accidentally found one of the Corrupt path’s strongholds .
The Corrupt path had many secret strongholds that were hidden throughout the world . The Righteous path had fought them for so many years, but they had been unable to locate their true hive .
Other than their main stronghold, they had countless others spread around . In truth, these strongholds were all transportation formations .
They could transport people from their main stronghold to these smaller ones . That allowed them to stretch their sinister claws all over the land . Most likely, the Corrupt path had been thinking of undergoing some kind of operation when Wilde ran into them .
According to Wilde, there had been too many people . They had only been at the Xiantian realm, but then, more and more of them had come . In the end, not only had Sea Expansion experts come, but even experts above Sea Expansion had come .
Although Wilde wasn’t able to tell their cultivation bases, Long Chen could guess from his story that three Ancestor experts had actually come .
Cang Ming had been killed . At that moment, buzzing had filled Wilde’s head, and then, he didn’t know what had happened afterward .
When he woke up, he saw that everyone around him was dead, and the land had been completely destroyed . There were also countless large footprints that appeared extremely frightening .
A feeling of indescribable hunger had filled him . He felt like he had no energy at all . In that extremely weak state, he struggled to hunt in the forest to replenish his energy .
Cang Ming’s death filled Wilde with grief for a long time . He had searched the battlefield many times, but he hadn’t found his corpse . In the end, he could only try to think of some way to return home .
But Wilde didn’t know his way back at all . He couldn’t even tell east from west . Even if he had a map, he couldn’t read it .
As a result, he could only wander around within the forest, constantly killing Magical Beasts to replenish his energy . In the end, he finally encountered a group of adventurers who were in a crisis . He killed the Magical Beast attacking them, saving their lives .
They were extremely grateful to him, and so they stopped their adventure and sent Wilde to the first monastery . Since the first monastery was still under construction, he had been sent on to the thirty-sixth supermonastery .
There, the temporary monastery head had finally learned his lesson because his Zhou family head had been killed . He no longer dared to cause any trouble, and he obediently gave Wilde an ident.i.ty badge and sent him to the transportation formation .
Thus, Wilde arrived at the Xuantian Dao Sect . Upon arriving, a crowd had formed around him, as his stature was truly shocking .
Someone asked him if he was looking for someone, and Wilde obediently said he was looking for his brother Long . When someone else asked him who his brother Long was, he responded that it was Long Chen .
As a result, that idiot Zhao Wuji had come and said that Long Chen was already dead .
In truth, he was just speaking from anger . But these words had been taken as the truth by Wilde . Having just lost Cang Ming, he couldn’t hold back his rage . That had resulted in the incident .
Shui Wuhen was speechless . There really wasn’t a single normal person beside Long Chen . This terrifying giant possessed such immense power but was still such a child .
“Foolish brat, what did I tell you? Your brother Long is the strongest and will never die,” said Long Chen .
“I know, but master, he… I was afraid . ” Wilde’s eyes reddened .
Back when he had encountered Long Chen in his starving state on the street, Long Chen had become his only family . No one had ever treated him so well .
Later, Cang Ming had become his master, and had raised him like he was his child . That unstinting care had deeply touched him . Then having lost his master, he had been filled with terror that his only family would also be taken away .
“Alright, let’s not talk about that . Where did you get this club?” asked Long Chen .
“My old club broke in battle . This is something I found deep in a cave . It’s just the right size, and it’s heavy enough . It’s really great!” Wilde pa.s.sed the bone club to Long Chen .
Long Chen received the club and found that it was extremely heavy . It didn’t feel like bone at all, more like cold metal .
It looked like it was covered in cracks, but those were actually runic lines that gave off strange fluctuations .
“This bone is extremely powerful . It possesses natural runes that can be used for activating magical arts . Furthermore, it also seems to be in the midst of absorbing some kind of energy and awakening!” Shui Wuhen looked at the bone with shock .
After all, as a monastery head, she had much more experience than rookies like Long Chen . She immediately saw through the strangeness of the bone .
