Chapter 1518 - The Cursed Goddess… Awakened? (2/2)
The storm caused by those fearsome creatures and the Heavengod’s Note would bring about a terrible purge in the relic, and countless experts would fall. She felt she was safest to stay by Bu Fang’s side. It was her intuition. After all, Bu Fang had brought her too many surprises.
Bu Fang nodded. He could understand their thoughts. However, he had to go there. That could be the key to his completion of the System’s task, which required him to devour the Laws left behind by the Heavengod with his Divine flame. He wondered how strong the flame would become when he completed the task?
Suddenly, his stomach growled again. The corner of his mouth twitched. With a thought in his mind, he took out another dragon leg. Like before, he roasted it with the Divine flame until it was charred on the outside but still tender and juicy inside.
The three of them sat cross-legged down in the city while waiting for the dragon meat to cook. Summer and Luo Sanniang were drooling with the aroma in the air. There would always be delicious food to enjoy when they followed Bu Fang. Summer knew this very well because she had tasted the Blood Phoenix, and now, she was about to enjoy the Thunder Dragon’s leg!
Luo Sanniang’s cultivation base was too weak, and she was full after eating just a little bit. The meat came from a top-grade Blood Beast King, after all, so the energy contained in it was extremely terrifying. Summer ate slightly more than her, but Foxy alone devoured more meat than the two of them combined.
As for the remaining dragon meat, they were all finished by Bu Fang. The fact that he was a Demigod but could eat so much without being blown into pieces by the energy was nothing less than a miracle.
After eating to their hearts’ content, the three people and a fox left the City of God Kings, joining the rest in heading toward the place marked on the Note.
…
The news of the real Heavengod’s Note was found soon spread. Before too long, most of the God Kings in the relic had learned about it. Everyone was rushing madly toward the location in hope of acquiring the chance left behind by the Heavengod. They did not attach any extravagant hope to getting the treasure, but… what if luck struck? Fate was a thing that no one could predict!
Of course, there were also sensible people who recognized that their cultivation base was weak and choose not to go there. Instead, they seized the opportunity of having less competition to obtain more good things in the relic.
With almost all the experts heading to that place, the competitors in other places would be fewer. So the treasures and herbs left behind had become the possessions of these experts.
It was not exaggerated to say that a major storm was imminent.
…
At the dangerous zone of the relic…
A black hole emerged, and a man carrying a long sword on his back stepped out of it. He had a graceful air of a deity. With a thought in his mind, the sword rose into the sky, then he jumped up on it and began flying toward the place marked on the Note.
He was Yu Qiu, the top Sword God of the Xiayi Divine Dynasty and the one who ranked third on the God King List.
Meanwhile, at the head area…
A mountain was blown apart from inside and turned into a huge pit. A bald man walked out of it with gleaming eyes, leaving behind a deep footprint on the ground with every step. He was Xuan Kong, an expert with an incredibly tough fleshly body who ranked second on the God King List.
Loud whistles rang without end in the relic as one expert after another sped toward the location marked on the Heavengod’s Note.
…
In an icy cold pool surrounded by bones…
A few bubbles emerged on the smooth surface of the pool. Then, a black dog floated up, left the pool, and shook the water off his body. Holding a glinting Heavengod bone, the dog belched and strode away with cat-like steps.
In addition to human experts, many Blood Beast Kings were stirring as well. These fearsome beings ripped through the air and blotted the sky with their colossal bodies as they headed toward the same location. Even though that was the lair of the existence ranked number one on the Blood Beast King List, they were fearless when it came to seizing the rare chance.
…
In the assembly point of the safe zone…
The beacon fire was swaying. Tai Fei stood over the city, covered in blood. A cold look came over his face as he stuck out his tongue and licked his lips.
“Of the five Soul Overlords’ thrones, I, Soul Thirteen, have taken one right now!”
A hint of a smile brushed his lips. Behind him, corpses littered the safe zone, and numerous Soul Demons slowly raised their heads, their eyes flashing red…
…
In the capital of the Xiayi Divine Dynasty…
The door of the Divine Chef Temple opened, and Nethery walked slowly out of it. She wore no shoes, and her fair feet glowed with turquoise light. Over her head, a strange power similar to that of the Laws was moving slowly. Her cultivation base had grown stronger again.
Inside the palace, the old Divine Emperor opened his cloudy eyes. His gaze focused and seemed to have looked through the void at Nethery, who was shrouded in a turquoise light from top to bottom.
“The Cursed Goddess… awakened?”
