Chapter 2052: Kilometers of Tombs
Goosebumps covered the Peacock Wise Kings entire body. He immediately dodged a few inches to the side.
However, he was still a bit too late, as the Second Princes entire body burst into golden light. The prince’s petrified skin immediately shattered, and he turned into a streak of golden light that rushed at the Peacock Wise King.
The Peacock Wise King cried out bitterly as a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth. He was already seriously injured. eastern fantasy
When he saw that the Peacock Wise King was lying on the ground without any ability to resist, the Second Prince laughed proudly and said, I indeed never expected the Medusa Queen to still be hiding her strength, but I immediately reacted to beat you all at your own game, drawing you over. As long as you die, taking over Primeval Iron City will be easy enough. Peacock Wise King, what a great reputation you have! And yet, it only amounted to this much.
After saying that, however, his expression suddenly changed. Golden light appeared all over his body, blasting the area in front of him. Everything around him shattered like a mirror.
The Peacock Wise King was standing in the distance, perfectly fine. Meanwhile, Kong Nanwu was already protecting Yu Yanluo and the two young Snake ladies.
The Second Princes expression darkened. People have always praised the Peacock races eye technique as being unparalleled. Even I was almost affected by your illusion.
The Peacock Wise King was a bit surprised, saying, You actually broke free from the illusion so easily. This really doesnt match up with your original strength.
After all, in the Fiend races, apart from the unfathomable Ocean races and the late Fiend Emperor, it was him, the Great Golden Peng King, and the Elf King who had the highest statuses. The Fiend races that cared about strength above all else didnt care about the nobility of bloodlines. Rather, their positions were all earned through strength. Furthermore, as the leader of the three great kings, his cultivation was the highest of them all.
Previously, the Second Prince hadn’t been on the same level as him at all; and yet now, they were evenly matched.
The Second Prince sneered, saying, You shouldnt treat the monsters as evil foreigners. In reality, they share a deep origin with us. I learned some methods to activate my bloodline power, and my strength can no longer be compared to what it was.
Then Ill have to experience your growth properly for myself,” the Peacock Wise King retorted. He had his pride as well, after all, and it was a rare chance to fight one on one. If he couldn’t take down this junior in such a situation, he would feel quite terrible himself.
As for the Second Princes troops that flocked over to help, Yu Yanluos beautiful head of hair turned into snakes that hissed at the incoming soldiers. Soon after, they all turned to stone sculptures. They definitely didnt have the Second Princes powerful cultivation.
The Second Prince immediately gave the order, None of you are to come over. Continue the siege! He knew that Yu Yanluos abilities were too strange. If he didnt get involved, it would be really hard for the others to do anything to her. Meanwhile, he would only be stalled by the Peacock Wise King.
Realizing that he couldn’t afford to waste time, he almost immediately turned into his true Golden Crow form. His wings spread out, immediately releasing his Ardent Sun Sword Formation. Countless blazing feathers turned into flying swords that covered the sky as they attacked the Peacock Wise King.
The Peacock Wise King harrumphed. A streak of rainbow light flickered behind him. As they clashed with that streak of rainbow brilliance, the endless flying swords fell one after another.
The Second Prince wasnt too surprised to see this, and his feathers quickly returned to his wings. Those wings then turned into two several-dozen-meter long blades. His entire body turned into a streak of light, and he attacked the Peacock Wise King from all directions at a speed that was difficult to follow with the naked eye. If it were anyone else, they would likely be instantly cut to shreds. Golden Crow Radiant Flow and Invincible Heavenly Peng were known to be the Fiend races two fastest movement skills, after all.
Just then, however, the Peacock Wise Kings eyes became pitch-black. A golden figure moved back and forth inside. Soon after, he vanished, turning into a streak of green light, and continued to clash with the golden light in the sky.
Just like that, they clashed more than ten times. The streak of golden light struggled free and reformed into the Second Prince. He gave the Peacock Wise King a look and said, The wise kings eye techniques are unrivaled after all!
The Peacock Wise King could see through an enemys openings through his eye techniques, and it could even duplicate the other sides moves. Even though they were much weaker, those copied moves had still been able to fend the Second Prince off, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.
You overpraise me. Your cultivation should now already be at the level of your father, the late Fiend Emperor. However, if his spirit were watching over us now and he found out what you have done, I wonder if he would come back to life out of anger, the Peacock Wise King said, his tone full of pity. He had watched the Second Prince grow up, and had always seen him as a genius. However, how could he have known that this child would walk the wrong path?
Hmph, if his spirit were still in this world, perhaps I wouldn’t be the first one he went after. The Second Prince harrumphed. He had heard a bit about Zu An and the Second Empress affairs. When he thought about the young and beautiful empress he treated with respect actually being pressed under another man, he had always felt really awful. free(w)ebnovel
He gave the glaring Medusa Queen in the distance a look, then looked back at his army that had suffered severe damage. After some hesitation, he gave the order to withdraw, saying, Ill request a spar from the wise king another day.
He had been injured from Yu Yanluos ambush, and then been attacked by them from both sides. The situation was indeed a bit unfavorable right now. Of course, he had a way to become even stronger through a secret technique, but he still had some reservations toward the monsters. He didnt dare to fully activate the power granted by that side, or else he could accidentally become their slave.
When he saw the Second Prince lead his soldiers away, the Peacock Wise King also sighed in relief. He didnt have any confidence in his ability to make the Second Prince stay here. The princes strength had improved too fast. He had even sensed a bit of danger. If he pushed the prince too far, even he could die. The Peacock races eye technique was extremely magical; since he could see death, he naturally wouldnt dare to disbelieve it.
As such, both sides silently decided to give up and allow the opposing force to retreat.
Kong Nanwu just assumed her father was worried that Primeval Iron Citys troops couldn’t win against the Second Princes seasoned field army if they left the city, so she didnt oppose the decision either.
Soon after, they brought Yu Yanluo and the two young women inside the city. They asked about the events within the sealed land. When they heard about the dangers the Second Empress had experienced, they were incredibly nervous. When they heard that the regent was already heading out to save the Second Empress, however, they felt a bit of relief. It seemed they all had tremendous faith in Zu Ans ability.
…
Achoo! Zu An sneezed as he moved through the endless snowstorm.
Who is thinking about me now?
He had already arrived at the place directly to the north. It was just a small spot on the map, but when he arrived in person, the whole place felt vast and endless. However, he had already searched this entire place once without finding any seals. Instead, a group of strange, small mounds rested within. These mounds were everywhere, stretching across several kilometers.
At first, Zu An had thought that they were just hills, but he soon realized that something wasnt right. Whenever such snowy lands had elevation, it took the form of extremely tall snowy mountains and glaciers. How could there be such short piles of snow?
When he got closer, he noticed that next to the snow piles, there were some weapons embedded in the ground in groups of two and three. Most of them were already buried under ice and snow. Only a few spear-type weapons still had their tips exposed. He cleared away the nearby accumulated snow, and then he finally realized that these were no hills, but rather snow piled over graves.
After some hesitation, he cleaved open a snow tomb and saw a fiend soldiers corpse. Even though countless years had already passed, the corpse was still vivid and lifelike. He even saw fatal claw marks on the soldier’s lower back that reached all the way to the bone. When he examined the soldier’s weapon and attire, he discovered that they werent what the Fiend races currently used, but rather an older style from thousands of years earlier.
Zu Am immediately felt a deep sense of veneration. These were likely left over from the battles of the Fiend races soldiers against the foreign monsters. Many soldiers who died in battle were buried locally, but history had proven that they were the final victors. They had been able to seal the monsters away. Still, so many brave soldiers had been silently sacrificed here. 𝕹♡vεℓB¡n: Your Gateway to Infinite Stories.
He closed the tomb again. His tone was extremely apologetic as he said, Im sorry for disturbing seniors rest… He took out a pot of wine and poured it around the surrounding simple and crude tombs, continuing, Seniors, once I seal these monsters again, I will definitely come to bring all of you home.
As he looked at the endless graves, his mood was especially grave.
After walking for a long time, he suddenly voiced his surprise. He turned around to look at the snow tombs, muttering, Hm? Something doesnt seem right…
