Chapter 272: Legend of the Sea of Ashes
Qiao Yang and Haihun quietly returned to Wandering City and arrived at the core area, which was connected to another world. To be more precise, it was the dark side of the multiverse. No one knew what it was like there.
To this day, people's understanding of the void is limited to the fact that it is the final place of everything. There are countless void creatures. Even the weakest individuals have the power to destroy the world.
Of course, Qiao Yang is more inclined to think that this is people demonizing void creatures. After all, in several major events in the multiverse, there have been several invasions from the void. Those huge, terrifying, and cunning void creatures are really... It left quite a psychological shadow on the creatures of the multiverse.
As far as he knows, void creatures cannot be born that powerful. Assuming that the void is also a big world, then there should be a corresponding class system. In other words, there must be void creatures under the legend in the void, and they cannot be born. Legends, the number is endless, they are too super models.
"Won't you tell them that you're safe?"
Hai Hun followed Qiao Yang step by step, and his short legs were almost out of sight. It was hard to imagine that the incarnation of a big world could be so interesting. It couldn't be said to be funny. It might be more accurate to describe it as cute.
"It's not safe now. If this trip goes well, all problems will be solved."
Shaking his head, he had no intention of meeting Tina and the others. Instead of putting more pressure on them, it would be better to eliminate the hidden dangers himself. Moreover, the key to the problem is that he is the leader of Black Candle and cannot reveal any weakness, even if it is this weakness. Just temporary is not enough.
What is a leader? Everyone is eagerly awaiting every word you say, without even missing a single punctuation mark!
Everything you say and do will affect the next direction of your subordinates, thus determining the future rise and fall of the force.
Qiao Yang is not a heartless person. He is unwilling to use Black Candle's future as a bet. He has too many concerns there, so he should let them develop freely for a period of time before solving their own hidden dangers. As a result, He won't be disappointed.
Soon, the two arrived at the void passage in the core area. The overflowing energy appeared lavender. Through here, they could enter the mysterious void land.
"This passage is very unstable and needs to be stabilized before it can accommodate you and me passing through."
Hai Hun did some research and came to a conclusion.
"There is no need, and the risk is too great. This is the kingdom of the Ashes God System, and it is also the main base camp to help you regain your origin. If we fail, we will be greeted by an army from the void, and you don't want to retreat at all. Don’t even keep it for yourself.”
Although it is an exaggeration, the truth is true.
"You are right, but how are we going to get there? If we force it through, there will definitely be no problem with your strength, but this passage will completely collapse, and we might not be able to come back."
After thinking for a moment, Hai Hun tilted his head and showed a puzzled expression. Coupled with his trivial little face, he was really as cute as he could be.
"You didn't even forget your own things, did you?"
Qiao Yang chuckled, and the sea ring in his palm lit up slightly. The passage that could only accommodate fourth-order void creatures instantly stabilized, allowing him to pass through without any problems.
Sea Soul understood his meaning in an instant, without hesitation, his figure gradually became illusory, and then entered the ring of the sea. This was originally the transformation of his origin, so it was naturally not repulsive.
When everything was ready, Qiao Yang looked determined and kept his strength to a minimum, then suddenly flew in. After a weak fluctuation, the core area returned to calm again, just like usual.
But what Qiao Yang didn't know was that the moment his figure disappeared, Oria and others appeared here one after another, silently watching the void passage that returned to chaos.
"The boss is here with his party. I don't know how long it will take for him to come back. The stage has been prepared for us. We can't let him down."
Tina said sadly that this was the first time she was separated from Qiao Yang, and she couldn't do anything to help. This feeling of powerlessness was indescribable, but it was real.
"The Ashes flag will surely fill the Endless Sea. The [God-Slaying Plan] can begin. We will never be a burden. When he comes back, we will see an extremely powerful Ashes God System."
Sisonia has completed the integration of the priesthood, and is only one promotion ceremony away from gaining powerful divine power.
"Let's go, there's still a lot of work to do."
The first mate didn't say much. After a little reminder, he left here.
"I wish you good luck in martial arts!"
Oriath took one last look at the void passage and seemed to have made a decision. Then she disappeared in a flash. Two minutes later, a spell mark unique to the dusk battlefield appeared in a corner of the Winter Sea, and a magical battle began. The battle started very suddenly.
As for the protagonists, of course they are Oriath and the Winter Maiden. The guy who once used despicable means to seize her Condensation Priesthood quietly descended into the Endless Sea a few days ago, and was then integrated into the [Divination] Priesthood. Oria found the trace.
She was originally planning to find trouble with her enemies in a few days, but Qiao Yang's departure made her feel uncomfortable no matter what she did. Feeling unhappy, of course she had to find an opening for surgery, so what could be worse than killing her enemies with her hands? Which one is suitable?
"It's really disturbing. Cheng Wu and I will go with you."
Sisonia shook her head helplessly, then called Cheng Wu, and went to the Winter Sea together. The war of gods there had already begun. The surging energy fluctuations were extremely terrifying, and there were also a lot of angry curses in the middle. The strange voice was obviously from the Winter Girl.
Ten minutes later, the curses turned into begging for mercy, but the sound did not last long. A cold blood rain mixed with endless blizzards appeared out of thin air. Then, the dusk battlefield was untied, and Oria's figure reappeared, holding a woman's head in her hand. Blue-gold blood was dripping from the broken neck, and the air was emitting cold air.
Looking at the Queen again, it cannot be said that she was not injured at all, but judging from her very stable breath, it didn't take much effort to kill the Winter Girl, which can be called a crushing victory.
However, this result is not unexpected. The priesthood that the Winter Girl once plundered was [Flying Snow]. She only had one priesthood, [Winter]. Even after hundreds of years, she had only raised her own divine power level from weak to weak, close to the level of medium divine power.
Compared with the current Oriya, there is a discontinuity. After all, the former is close to powerful divine power, while the latter is only weak divine power after all, and it is not surprising that she was beaten.
Yesterday's cause, today's result, fate is really amazing. The Winter Girl certainly could not have thought that she would spit out all the principal and interest after designing to seize the priesthood of Oriya. An angry woman is scary enough, not to mention an angry goddess.
The priesthood of the Winter Girl is very suitable for Oriya. Almost nothing is lost. At most, a very small part of the incompatible divinity and godhood has escaped. I don't know when it will be picked up by a lucky person.
With the death of the Winter Girl, his kingdom also lost its divine support and turned into a meteor, falling straight towards the Endless Sea. This was also one of the spoils of war. It was estimated that no one who wanted to snatch food from the hands of the Ash God System would be desperate.
…
…
A month passed in a flash, the crows flew away, the moon set and the sun rose, and in the blink of an eye it was another beautiful morning.
During this period, Qiao Yang had not received any news. Fortunately, the confidentiality work above was done very well. So far, everyone just thought that their boss was in seclusion to explore further, and the expected panic did not appear.
During this period, Marquis led people to move the ruins of the Tide Empire to the Ash Sea. The movement that day was really big, and even attracted many curious saints, that is, the gods themselves.
But as the old saying goes, curiosity kills the cat. These unlucky people who didn't know the reason were directly dragged into the dusk battlefield, and then they were neatly killed under the leadership of Xisonia, which further strengthened the power of the Ash God System.
The priesthoods held by these gods also found suitable masters among the core members. After a few days, several god-making ceremonies were held in succession, adding a lot of fresh blood to the Ash God System.
Of course, since Qiao Yang, the most powerful combat force and the backbone, is not there, the current development of the Ash God System is mainly based on the old batch of gods. First, let several beings close to powerful divine power complete the promotion, and then distribute the surplus divinity, godhood and the most important priesthood to the newcomers. After all, according to the planned behavior, it is only a matter of time before all the gods are offended, and it is necessary to prepare for a rainy day.
In addition, the promotion ceremony of Xisonia and Cheng Wu was also successfully completed. The birth of two powerful gods really shook the multiverse severely.
It is worth mentioning that in the promotion ceremony of Sisonia, the incarnation of Lady of the Night arrived, not with malice, but full of goodwill, and helped Tina and others to intimidate some malicious gods. No one could guess what He was thinking.
However, this was just an episode, and what He did could only be called icing on the cake, far from being a timely help. If He wanted to get something from Qiao Yang, this price would not be enough.
In short, whether it was the gods or other strong men, they were increasingly wary of the increasingly powerful Ash God System and dared not easily go against its edge.
Now it is only the early stage of the Saint Catastrophe. Let alone powerful divine power, even a medium-level divine power is a terrifying deterrent. Moreover, with the accumulation of time, Sisonia and Cheng Wu have accumulated considerable divine power and can exert all their combat power. Didn’t you see that the gods who entered the world in the form of saints recently all chose to keep their tails between their legs, for fear of being targeted by this group of lunatics who hunted gods everywhere, causing the accumulation of tens of millions of years to be burned.
That's right, the [God-killing Plan] proposed by Sisonia has already begun. All gods who have conflicts of faith with the Ash God System are on the list. With the help of Oriah's [Divination] priesthood, they basically can't escape. In addition to those gods who also rely on the God System, all the gods who fight alone have become the nutrients of the Ash God System, providing this lush tree with branches and leaves to thrive.
What's more outrageous is that the Ash God System is not only powerful, but also surprisingly united. You know, even the elf God System, which is famous for its unity, can't compare with the Ash God System with a messy range of beliefs. The gods are puzzled.
In this situation, the Ash God System can be said to be showing its edge. Not to mention the more distant multiverse, the legend of Ash has begun to spread in the current Endless Sea.
At this moment, in the Old Mariner Tavern, a rather shabby-looking bard was guest-starring as a storyteller, telling the legend of the Sea of Ashes to the people drinking there.
"In the distant past, there was a mysterious and dangerous sea area, known as the Sea of Ashes!"
"Legend has it that there are endless treasures and unknown dangers hidden in this sea area, attracting adventurers and captains to explore."
His voice is full of magnetism, and the ups and downs of his tone are quite fascinating.
"However, there are also countless dangers and forbidden areas in this sea area. There are hundreds of gods there. It is a veritable forbidden area. They belong to the same god system, called the Ashes God System."
"One day, a young and brave adventurer decided to rush to the Sea of Ashes to explore everything there."
"Although people tried to dissuade him, he was fearless and eager to see the mystery, so he resolutely embarked on this adventure!"
The poet's tone changed from dull to passionate, and the harp in his hand struck faster.
"The adventurer's name was Edrics. He led a fleet of experienced sailors to the Sea of Ashes. During the voyage, they encountered rough seas and violent storms, but they still made it through. After passing one obstacle after another, we arrived at the legendary destination—Ember Island!”
"But!"
At this point, the poet's tone became more and more ups and downs, as if he had witnessed it all in person.
"When they arrived at the edge of Ash Island, they fell into an endless fog and lost their direction. In the vast sea fog, Edrics felt a strange aura, as if there was something unknown. Being watches them."
"At this moment, there was a loud noise, and a huge monster rose from the sea. It was covered in scales and had a fierce light in its eyes, like the master of the ocean."
"This is the legendary sea monster god who is responsible for guarding the secrets of Ember Island. Only the bravest and most fearless captains can face his test!"
The music becomes more exciting and surging, the poet talks about rising, and even uses part of his professional power, which makes the audience's immersion deeper, which is truly fascinating and exciting.
"Adrics and his crew bravely accepted the test and launched fierce battles one after another. They used all means to pass through the set levels again and again, just to explore the Sea of Ashes. secret."
"After a long and difficult battle, they finally passed the test of the sea monster god and successfully entered the Ash Island."
The exciting music turned into a mysterious and soothing beat.
"The joy of victory filled the whole body, but was soon replaced by a strong mysterious atmosphere. When Edrics went deep into the center of Ember Island, they discovered a huge temple, filled with treasures and resplendent in gold and jade."
"Here, they saw everything, found the truth, and decided to all stay on Ash Island to protect the secrets there for generations. At the same time, they received the blessing of the Ash God System and gained stronger power."
The story gradually comes to an end, the syllables begin to lengthen, and the poet begins to end in a slower tone.
"But not everyone wanted to stay on Ember Island. Some of the crew members chose to leave, but swore to keep the secrets there, and at the same time embarked on their return journey with amazing treasures and memories of adventures."
"Their stories will be told for thousands of years, become legends in the endless sea, and be praised by the world."
"Thank you for your support. The above is the legend of the Sea of Ashes."
At this point, he paused and then said;
"I'm going to take the Ashes Route's caravan there to have a look. I heard that Ashes City is recruiting people, especially professionals. It is said that many people have found their future there."
People were stunned for a while, and then burst into warm applause. Although the story was a bit exaggerated, everyone was full of curiosity about the recently famous Sea of Ashes and the Ash Island at its core.
And the story is not completely fabricated. At least the Ashes God System is real. What the poet said is true. Ashes City is indeed recruiting people. Many professionals who have been stuck in the bottleneck for a long time are already very excited. (End of chapter)
