Chapter 321 The Ancient God Awakens
This mission is well prepared.
They completed the opening battle in one day and successfully entered the Dark Beast Plane. After five days of marching, they met up with Mo Ji. Thanks to Mo Ji, they filled the space warehouse they brought with supplies in one go.
It can be said that the remaining 24 days are all for exploring the secrets of this world.
It has been 22 days since I separated from Mo Ji.
In 22 days, they filled six warehouses with ancient divine crystals and also refined 24 ancient divine crystals. It can be seen that the consumption was huge. Even on their chariots, they could not take them casually.
Such precious supplies will become less and less if we use them up, and we don’t know when the next supply will come, so naturally the more the better.
Unfortunately, this ancient divine crystal is like the "stone" of the ancient gods. They dare not touch the ancient gods at will. They can only get some scraps from the edges, and the benefits they can get are very limited.
Even though they have run the entire process like an assembly line, the amount collected every day is still not much more.
Now, there is less than a day left before returning.
In addition to reluctance, everyone's faces also showed a look of serious readiness. Their faces were tense and their eyes were focused, because they were about to do something extraordinary and very risky.
"The day has finally arrived."
"Even though I knew it was dangerous, I still did it."
"I have to go. If I don't do it, it will affect my Dao heart."
"That's right. If we don't even dare to try, it would be too frustrating for us to have practiced till now!"
Everyone was sitting scattered on the back shell, some were resting with their eyes closed, some were adjusting their states, and some were taking out their weapons to sharpen them. They were doing their own things while chatting like this.
As time goes by, the time for them to leave this world is getting closer.
However, the atmosphere between them did not relax, but became more tense.
The inward-drawing wind seemed to have weakened a bit. Although it still looked terrifying, if you stayed in such an environment for a long time, you would eventually be able to notice the difference.
"The wind has weakened."
"Damn, I don't know how long it's been flying in this guy's nostrils. It's been over 20 days and it still hasn't reached the end. How big is this thing?"
"It's not necessarily in the nostrils. I think it's in the blood vessels. We're just circulating it."
"Next time I come here, I must go deeper and see what this thing is."
"Brothers, the wind is about to die down, get ready."
Everyone stood up and looked at the wall of the passage right in front of them.
As early as half a day ago, Dianma had been attached to this wall and not moving. Its protective shield was tightly attached to the faintly trembling wall. If you got close, you could even see it "breathing".
The slight undulations revealed a dazzling faint light, and the ups and downs of the waves were like the peristalsis of the intestines.
After watching it for a long time, even if you have absorbed enough ancient divine crystals, you will still feel dizzy and restless.
The wind stopped completely.
All things are in harmony.
Everyone seemed to have received a signal. They suddenly jumped up from their positions, rushed out of the protective shield, waved their weapons, and slashed at the wall fiercely.
“Ahhhh!”
“Ahhhh!”
He used all his strength, fearing that the attack would not succeed.
Wei Huan also stood at the edge of the carapace, black flames condensed around him, his arms extended deep outward, and the Ring of Mofidi appeared in his hand.
“Wow—”
He swung the Ring of Mofidi forward violently, and the chain at the end stretched out like a black poisonous snake, pouncing and biting.
"Tempering, this is how it should be!" Wei Huan said this, his eyes focused, using all his strength.
“Puff!”
The sickle of the Ring of Mofidi pierced into the wall fiercely, and the entire blade was immersed in it, reaching deep into the wall.
A light golden liquid as thick as honey slowly flowed down the handle and meandered all the way to the iron chain.
Looking at the others, they all thrust their weapons into the wall. Even though Mu Zhong's staff was not very sharp, it could still catch the honey-like liquid as long as it landed in the right place.
As the golden liquid gushed out, a rich power similar to that of the ancient divine crystal also overflowed. The air was filled with a faint fragrance, which lifted people's spirits.
"Tempering can only be done this way," Mu Zhong said, "Using weapons to be filled with the blood of ancient gods and using life force to change their attributes can be called tempering.
Ironheart, speak!"
As Mu Zhong finished his last word, everyone saw that the last side quest in front of them had finally changed.
[Side Quest 3: Find a way to refine weapons (Completed)]
at the same time.
【Exploration of "Tianzhu Twin Mountains" (Completed)】
One of the four tasks in the main storyline was finally completed.
The team members hanging on the wall or remotely controlling the weapons, including Wei Huan, all laughed.
To temper weapons is to attack the ancient gods. After this answer was guessed, many people found it incredible. After all, this is an ancient god. No one can imagine what terrible things will happen if they attack a being that may have lived for hundreds of millions of years.
However, after trying all possible methods and still being unable to complete the tempering task, the final answer is only this one.
Wei Huan also hesitated whether to take the risk, and discussed it with Mu Zhong and everyone else, but in the end it was he who made the decision.
He wanted to be more thorough and cautious. In fact, this was just an experiment. It would be fine to come next time. Maybe he would be stronger next time and would not be so afraid of the ancient gods' counterattack.
But after thinking about the reasons, I still couldn't get over this hurdle.
Everyone is right.
Not doing it is certainly safe, but it will make you lose your enterprising spirit and affect your spiritual heart.
The human race has worked hard to carve out a bloody path out of desperate situations, precisely because of its unyielding spirit.
As the beacon of the human race, they are the cutting edge at the forefront, and they must maintain this indomitable momentum, cut through thorns and barriers, and break through the obstacles ahead in order to achieve perfection!
Choose this last moment and give it your all. Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, at least there is one thing that can be proved.
They had once wielded their weapons against the gods!
Just thinking about this will make you fearless about the future!!
"call--"
The wind that had disappeared started blowing again, stronger than ever before. The walls of the passage surged violently, pressing towards them like a wave.
For people as small as them, it was like the end of the world.
There is no way to avoid it, no way to escape it.
They just looked at each other, and then a bright smile appeared in their eyes.
Captain Xue shouted, "The wind is strong, hurry!"
"Let's go, see you later!"
"See you in the car!"
As soon as the words fell, the last second of the "Brave Challenge" returned to zero, and everyone disappeared from the spot in an instant.
The walls collided violently with each other, causing the earth to shake, like the destruction of a planet, with terrifying power.
However, there was no one in this passage anymore. Only a wound with golden blood flowing out was left, telling that it had been attacked by humans as weak as ants not long ago.
Inside the Dark Beast King's tent.
The Dark Beast King, who was sitting high on the throne, suddenly opened his eyes. His originally dark eyes turned golden, like the color of golden blood, full of divinity.
As it opened its eyes, the Dark Beast King's invisible veins spread outward like a spider web, with chaotic signals spreading outward, spreading, spreading...
For a moment, the entire dark beast world seemed to have paused. The old Shuroma, the newborn two-headed hidden demon, the feeding running wolf, and the flying ghost crow all stopped in place.
Diffusion, diffusion, diffusion...
Until the bottom of those golden eyes reflected an overly young Shuroma with a pair of furry antlers.
These golden eyes, full of divinity, stayed on Xuroma for 0.1 seconds and then moved away.
When this "network" spread to its extreme, the entire dark beast was enveloped by it, but its eyes looked upwards, gazing at the endless sky.
His eyes saw this universe, the next universe, and the next universe, passing through countless longitudes and dimensions, passing through time and space. It was as if he saw the end of time, and as if he saw the center of space, until the end of life, he vaguely saw a vague existence.
“@!￥@…”
The ancient god's whispers flowed from its lips, like fear itself. No one knew what it was whispering. Those who heard the voice simply fell into boundless fear and then exploded into a ball of blood.
But such an existence only murmured this, and finally retracted its gaze that was looking straight into the sky.
As his eyes, which were filled with mystery, opened and closed, the golden light receded little by little.
The Dark Beast King's eyes turned black again, and the slightly shaking earth also calmed down completely.
Everything in the frozen world returned to normal, the running wolf continued to eat, and the ghost crow continued to fly.
Only Moji looked up doubtfully, wondering uncertainly, had time just stopped for a moment? Then why could it move?
…
Wei Huan was successfully teleported back to the chariot. Mu Zhong, who was also teleported to his side, went to count the number of people as soon as he was teleported back. Wei Huan stayed to check the harvest.
Mainly for oneself.
During these 30 days, he recruited more than 30,000 running wolves.
After Brother Taogang became half a step away from becoming a pseudo-god, he gained the ability to strengthen the defense of the Wolf Legion and the wind-controlling technique that could quickly send the Wolf Legion to different battlefields. These two abilities instantly brought the Wolf Legion, which was about to be eliminated, back to the position of the main force of the legion.
Even if the Wolf Legion can only be used as cannon fodder, it can only be valuable cannon fodder, at least it can play a role in restraining the enemy in battle.
Now that there is an opportunity to use this type of troops again, Wei Huan decided to expand the number of the Wolf Army again. Now it has reached 90,000, bringing his total summoned number to 230,000 and 310,000.
Once this number of people start fighting, it will become a vast battlefield with no end in sight.
In addition, he walked in that passage for more than 20 days, except for the first 5 days out of caution, and he also practiced with the ancient divine crystal after that.
Now, the biggest change on his personal panel is not that his dark power has increased to 54,000, but that his control over darkness has increased to 71 points.
The fact that his "ghost power" could be increased to the total amount of his cultivation and improvement in the monster plane over the past year and a half in just 30 days was certainly very impressive, but compared to his "control over darkness", at least he now finally knew how to increase his ghost power value.
The power of "control over darkness" is not very obvious now, but it makes it easier for Wei Huan to conquer the tomb, and the undead will not resist his domination.
But Wei Huan knew that the real use of "Dark Control" was not just this. Compared with its real use, controlling the undead was just a by-product.
It’s all because of the “control of darkness”, which is actually the “control of laws”. He practices the way of the underworld, walks the path of the dead, and controls endless undead, and these are all the “laws of death”.
"Control of darkness" can also be said to be the digitization of his mastery of the "Law of Death".
71 points of "Darkness Control" is certainly not capped at 100 points. This is just a small step for him to practice the Law of Death and embark on this path.
However, from the time he activated this attribute until today, all of his law attributes came from equipment, not from his own efforts, and he didn't know how to practice and improve them.
So this seemingly only increased the "Dark Control" by 8 points, but it became crucial.
This means that Wei Huan has found the way to practice the laws of cultivation.
He can comprehend the "Law of Death" through the ancient divine crystal, and the power of the law is the source of all things and the beginning of everything. In the war of gods, whoever practices the same law will be stronger if he masters more laws.
God, this should be the end of your cultivation.
The so-called struggle for the great road is like walking on a single-plank bridge. If you grab one piece, others will have one less piece. There is a future where you and I cannot exist. Every extra understanding of the law is crucial.
In Wei Huan's opinion, these 8 points of "control over darkness" should be his greatest gain on this trip.
Then Wei Huan shifted his gaze and looked at the Ring of Mofidi that he had been holding in his hand.
At first glance, one can notice the change. The weapon, which was originally pitch black and seemed to be able to swallow light, now shimmers with a faint golden light, presenting a texture that implies divinity and an extremely attractive luster.
At the same time, the properties also changed.
The original weapon description was:
[Pseudo-Demon·Moffidi's Ring (Fragment)]
All attributes increased by 75%
Dark Domination +3
The curse from the abyss, once targeted by Him, the holder will never have peace.
Now it has changed:
[Ring of the God of Slaughter Morfidi (Fragment)]
All attributes increased by 75%
Dark Domination +3
Law Comprehension +5%
Description 1: A curse from the abyss. Once targeted by Him, the holder will never have peace.
Description 2: It once hurt the ancient gods. The weapon tempered by the blood of the gods has undergone a qualitative change. When used, it will carry the power of the law. When carried, it can increase the speed of law perception.
Note 3: It will be easier to upgrade to a divine weapon
These descriptions are all from "Heart of Steel" and have described the changes in weapons after "Forging with Divine Blood" in as much detail as possible.
"Wei Huan." Mu Zhong's voice rang out from the virtual screen. He said, "Everyone has returned. Our weapons have all been transformed into God-Slaying Weapons. They have the opportunity to advance into divine weapons and increase our control over the laws."
Wei Huan withdrew his attention from the weapon description and nodded: "I saw it."
"Okay, then let's go back to Blue Star as planned?"
"Yes, but the time you stay on Blue Star should be shortened."
"Okay, I'll arrange for someone to go ahead now."
After a few words, the two did not end the call, but turned the screen aside and continued to busy themselves with their own things, only saying a few words occasionally when they thought of something.
They have been doing this for the past few years.
This trip to the Dark Beast Plane was indeed fruitful. Except for the ancient divine crystal, all other supplies were handed over to Mu Zhong for disposal, and Wei Huan did not ask any questions.
Materials that were extremely precious in the eyes of others were commonplace in his eyes. This trip to the Dark Beast Plane was like driving a truck and bringing back a load of cabbages. It was no big deal for him.
Wei Huan protects Lan Xing, but his attachment to Lan Xing is not deep. He has no important people on Lan Xing. His only living blood relative is Wei Jinhong, who makes him disgusted whenever he thinks of him. There is no need to kill that man, but there is no need to meet him again either.
So when Mu Zhong stayed in Blue Star to deal with the supply issues, Wei Huan returned to the Challenge World.
For the next half month, he explored the advanced ruins in the sixth-level world.
The reason for doing this is that I want to meet Mofidi again.
His weapon is still incomplete. It seems that at least one part is missing. It has to be put together to make it complete.
However, after entering the sixth-level world, Mofidi never appeared again. Even when Wei Huan entered the diamond-level ruins, he still could not see Mofidi's shadow.
Could it be that this world is suppressed by a divine corpse and He cannot enter?
Wei Huan guessed so.
Mofidi is a demon god, and should be a god beyond the god level with divine nature. After all, his tentacles can penetrate countless worlds, which is not something that can be achieved by ordinary people who have cultivated to the god level.
If Mofidi does not appear in this world, there will be fewer restrictions in the seventh-level world, and it will become more difficult to obtain the final components.
After Wei Huan explored two high-level ruins in a row without success, he returned to the World Tree and directly escaped into the void.
When the time came, the crew members who were returning to Blue Star for vacation returned on time, and Mu Zhong, who had finished his work on Blue Star, also came back.
The two of them were separated for half a month this time and talked for a long time, especially Mu Zhong, who told him everything, big and small, that had happened since they separated.
After hearing Wei Huan mention Mofidi, Mu Zhong asked, "Are we going to the seventh-level world? Divine artifacts are different from pseudo-god-level ones. I also tried to refine weapons on Blue Star this time. I thought that with the materials from the Dark Beast Plane, plus those we obtained in the Monster World, and now with the Ancient Divine Crystal, I would definitely be able to create a divine artifact. But it's not that easy. Look at it, it's far from a divine artifact. In the judgment of the Iron Heart, it's not even as good as the pseudo-god level."
As he said this, Mu Zhong took out the small dagger he had tried to refine.
Wei Huan took the dagger. It felt heavy and of good texture. The appearance was also good. There was a faint ancient sheen on the weapon.
As his eyes swept over, the dagger's attribute panel popped up.
【Ancient God Agility Dagger】
Attack: 12000~15000
Agility: +533
Critical Hit: +22%
Law Attack: 1%
Law Comprehension: 1%
[Source: Human Mu Zhong]
Wei Huan took a few more glances before saying, "Above diamonds, below false gods."
"That's right." Mu Zhong nodded. "But if we're willing to spend the materials and have a pilot of sufficient strength, we should be able to refine a pseudo-god-level weapon. I've calculated that with the materials we brought back this time, if we're frugal, we can create 25 to 30 pseudo-god weapons. However..." Mu Zhong paused, then shook his head and said, "But if it's not pseudo-god, but this level, let's call this series Ancient God Weapons. If we only create Ancient God-level weapons, we can create more than 400, or 200 sets of equipment."
"Is the difference so big?" Wei Huan was a little surprised.
Mu nodded. "That's right. There's a world of difference between the Pseudo-God level and the Ancient God level. This is because we've plundered two worlds and accumulated materials for thousands of years. I think even if we have enough ability and enough materials, I think one artifact per plane is the limit."
Wei Huan could accept this: "After all, it is a divine weapon. If it doesn't have the power of an entire realm and ten thousand years of accumulation, how can it be called a divine weapon?"
Mu Zhong sighed, "I thought I'd gained a lot this time, but in reality, it's still limited."
Wei Huan laughed: "We thought everything was too easy."
"That's right. Speaking of intermediate materials, we actually have the most. This is also the stage where our human race has the largest number of them. Improving them means improving the overall strength of the human race. In fact, we can't belittle ourselves. We have done well enough." After Mu Zhong finished speaking, he asked Wei Huan, "What are your plans for these high-end materials?"
Wei Huan closed his eyes, tapping his fingers on the armrests of the table and chairs. After a long moment, he said, "Refine ten pseudo-god-level weapons, one for each sword, spear, halberd, staff, and shield. Submit them to the state for arrangement. The rest will be given to Xu Qingqiang, Captain Xue, Brother Chui, and you. Customize a pseudo-god-level weapon."
All the remaining ones will be made into Ancient God weapons. The main force of our chariots must be equipped with Ancient God weapons, and the extra ones can be given away."
Mu Zhong thought about it and nodded. "I can understand that you only made ten pseudo-god-level weapons. Such sharp weapons can protect the country. Having more would be inappropriate. But even Kritov and Jacques are only equipped with pseudo-god-level weapons, right? Do you want Captain Fang to customize a pseudo-god-level weapon and send it to him? Actually, I don't need it. I..."
Wei Huan interrupted him: "Whether you use the pseudo-god-level staff is one thing, whether you have it or not is another. You must have it."
Mu Zhong was stunned, then chuckled: "Okay, I understand. Then what about Kritov and Jacques..."
"If you're not on the front lines, don't fight for weapons with those who risk their lives on the battlefield. Their pseudo-god weapons will be distributed directly as a benefit."
"That's fine. It's fair to judge based on military merit."
Wei Huan knew that some would be dissatisfied with this distribution. When it came to interests, nothing could be perfect. But he didn't care, believing that those on the chariot wouldn't be so foolish as to not know the best option, rather than being consumed by jealousy and ultimately forced to leave.
If you feel it is unfair, adjust your mindset first.
After these arrangements were made, Cousin Mu knocked on the door and asked, "Can we leave now?"
Wei Huan nodded.
Mu Zhong said, "Okay, let's go back now. The newcomers in the Monster World have just finished their trials. I wonder if there will be any good ones this time."
Cousin Mu smiled and said, "The chariot is level eight and can accommodate 10,000 people. It's time to promote some mid-level cadres."
Mu Zhong said, "I have a few good candidates."
"Who is it?"
"Let's talk about it when we get back." Mu Zhong then looked at Wei Huan and said with a smile, "Let's go back to the Monster World!"
