Leaning his body back sharply, Ning Feng dodged Katis's instinctive movement and, just before falling to the ground, flashed his silver wings and retreated quickly.
Ning Feng laughed out loud as he retreated, letting out a sneer.
"If he knew the truth, wouldn't he cry?"
Poor Gardner died without ever knowing what he had revived.
After sacrificing three legends, including the Forest Shaman, nearly ten thousand awakened individuals of varying strengths, and countless materials consumed to allow them to enter this place unaffected.
He failed to summon back the gods they had long awaited; he was defeated.
It wasn't over that Ning Feng was mistaken at the beginning; even the only one who could be considered successful, Katis, became someone else's resurrected body.
The animatronic creature before him was not one of the gods that had suddenly disappeared, nor was it the master he had long awaited, but rather a composite of remnant souls that had been slumbering and wandering in the land of fallen gods.
Some souls that should have died long ago, but did not die completely.
"How pitiful."
Whether it was Gardner or the Katis in front of him, Ning Feng could only think of "pitiful" when he saw them.
Even the most hateful person has a pitiable side.
Gardner's blind loyalty led him to place all his hopes on those ethereal deities.
His hero is my enemy.
From the perspective of supernatural beings, Gardner is an absolutely positive and praiseworthy figure; supernatural beings can even sing his story.
Despite being a legendary figure, he not only had unwavering faith, but was also willing to sacrifice everything for the gods.
But he died, and he died with his eyes wide open in disbelief.
Although Ning Feng was somewhat impressed by his sacrifice and awakening, he was not particularly moved or shocked by his actions.
He chose this path himself, so he has no one to blame but himself.
Moreover, Ning Feng was not impressed with Gardner's approach and looked down on it completely.
"Sacrificing others to achieve one's own goals is hardly praiseworthy!"
If Gardner had chosen to sacrifice himself as the only one, Ning Feng would have thought more highly of him. But unfortunately, the old legend used everyone present as a bargaining chip for sacrifice.
Then there's nothing more to say.
No matter how noble the reasons, those who would forcibly drag others into a raging fire for their own selfish desires all have only one name in Ning Feng's eyes—
madman.
These madmen may appear respectable, but in essence, they are no different from insane cultists.
Clang!
"And what's even more pitiful... is you!"
The blade was deflected by Katis's claws, and Ning Feng kicked the dark figure that was half a meter away from him, using the huge recoil force to fly backward even faster.
"They will never find peace, and will be dug up by their unfilial descendants from time to time."
The Land of Fallen Gods existed long before the gods disappeared, which means that the souls of these gods have been wandering here for over a thousand years.
Having been stripped of their divine name and lost their believers, they can neither be resurrected nor truly die.
Unable to find their place, they continue to influence and entangle each other here, becoming each other's constraints.
hehe……
"The Land of Fallen Gods? To put it bluntly, it's nothing more than a prison for a bunch of losers."
This place is a giant cage, trapping them all inside.
Whoosh!
Ning Feng, who was flying backward, did not manage to escape from Katis's side. As if she had broken free from the constraints of gravity, she disappeared from her original spot and appeared directly above Ning Feng the next moment.
soon.
Despite being in the midst of battle, Ning Feng remained calm in the face of the situation. His eyes lit up as he quickly analyzed his opponent's abilities.
Entering a state of high-speed thinking, everything around him slowed down, and the flow of time seemed to slow down in Ning Feng's eyes.
"Is it purely physical ability without any fluctuations of legendary power? No, although her physical strength is outstanding, it has not exceeded the upper limit of the legendary level."
The legendary dragon's body was already exceptionally strong, and it was further enhanced after being possessed by a god, but it still hadn't reached the point of breaking through magic with force, and it wasn't yet within the realm of a saint.
"But this speed... is it a special legendary ability?"
The opponent's movements were almost blurry, so fast that even he couldn't keep up...
But at that moment, Ning Feng's eyes widened slightly, and ripples appeared in his calm gaze.
Because, Katis, who had been motionless in his field of vision, suddenly moved, as if completely unaffected, and kicked Ning Feng hard.
"Invalid? No, that's not right!"
It wasn't that it was ineffective, but rather that the opponent's speed was too high, to the point that it appeared to Ning Feng as normal speed.
hide?
There's no escaping it!
In the very last moment, Ning Feng managed to adjust his posture and raise his sword to parry.
There was no sound of collision, but the next moment Ning Feng's figure fell to the ground like a cannonball.
Swoosh—
boom!
"cough!"
This time, Ning Feng truly distanced himself from Katis, but at the cost of breaking more than four bones.
"Two ribs were broken, but thankfully none pierced his lung..."
Minor injury.
After landing, Ning Feng didn't have time to treat himself. Without any hesitation, he swung his sword directly at the empty space behind him!
There was no reaction when he began to swing, but when his blade was halfway down, it was blocked by Katis's large hand.
Clang!
"Just as I thought!"
This time, Ning Feng saw clearly how the other party appeared.
Ning Feng laughed; he understood.
"This is not the power of legend."
Although the power used by the opponent was greatly weakened, it was undoubtedly the power of the law.
The authority of the gods!
This made Ning Feng realize once again that the enemy before him was not just a legend, but a god.
Even if they were just gods who had died many years ago.
"Power? It wasn't completely seized?"
Was it not completely looted at the time? Or did it accumulate slowly over the years?
But right now, it seems there are no suitable means to resist...
We can't beat them.
"No...actually, it's not important."
A trickle of golden blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and Ning Feng smiled at the grinning soul behind Katis.
"Hey, fellow prisoner, how does it feel to be out of your cell for some fresh air?"
His response was a sharp claw aimed directly at his face.
Ning Feng dodged the sharp claws from the front, but he couldn't dodge the sharp tail that suddenly appeared from the void behind him!
laugh!
The tail, covered in scales, pierced through Ning Feng's body, binding him completely!
At the same time, eerie murmurs also entered Ning Feng's mind.
Ha ha ha ha……
Even Katis's usually indifferent expression wavered.
But as soon as he put on that stiff smile, his expression changed.
"You think you've got me?"
