The ink ants’ bodies were small and light, their life breaths extremely weak, almost not triggering the traps.
They lightly crawled over the mountain forest, swallowing the power left behind by the strong ones in various parts of the Floating Land… these traps were essentially scrapped.
“Having lost the totem power’s blessing, the danger is almost negligible. Even if Bai Yuxia danced a sacrificial dance barefoot inside the traps, he wouldn’t suffer any significant injury,” Play Fate said faintly.
“Wait, why would I dance a sacrificial dance barefoot inside the traps?” Bai Yuxia pressed.
“Let’s see what secret these traps are guarding,” Jiang Wang flew down, full of momentum. He casually patted Play Fate, pushing him to the very front.
The Ink family’s mechanisms were unmatched in the world. If Play Fate didn’t scout the way, who would?
Who knew, “Those who labor with their minds govern people, those who labor with their strength are governed by people.”
Play Fate wasn’t afraid of hardship or danger. He walked at the front, waving a large sleeve – three pitch-black metal cubes with spider patterns immediately jumped out. They changed form in mid-air, turning into three half-human-high mechanism spiders. They divided into three positions, forming a pin shape, and rapidly scurried into the forest.
Their compound eyes spun rapidly, their spider legs were like spears, almost appearing as phantoms as they leaped.
They filled flat trap pits, cut off horizontal branches, and advanced rapidly while testing all possible dangers. Even when passing by thorn bushes, they were cut clean.
The four people followed closely behind, walking on a smooth path, and quickly arrived at a large wasteland within the forest.
Wild grass was luxuriant here, evil vines entangled branches, but trees had fallen with exposed roots, and the ground was pitted and uneven. It looked desolate, cold, and lonely, like a forgotten place on this huge Saint Hunting Mountain.
Due to the terrain, it couldn’t be seen directly from high up.
“This wasteland with nothing at all is surrounded by countless traps set by the Floating Land’s various spirits?” Jiang Wang asked.
Bai Yuxia grabbed some soil and rubbed it lightly between his index finger and thumb: “There should have been something here originally. It was only abandoned later. The environment here has been altered many times, almost being dug three feet deep and searched inch by inch. This should be the handiwork of those totem spirits… there won’t be anything of high value.”
He thought for a moment and added: “This value is relative to the Floating Land.”
Items of high value within the Floating Land’s human race’s认知 (rènzhī – cognition) range had definitely all been searched away.
“Leaving so many traps after scraping the ground three feet deep indicates that this is a very special place to them. Perhaps they were anticipating future changes, expecting something to still happen here. It might involve certain legends.”
Play Fate’s spiders had already swept over this wasteland at this time and were on alert in the outer perimeter. He placed a metal cylinder on the ground, and with a low hum, something inside the cylinder rapidly plunged into the ground.
The Yuan force around the metal cylinder suddenly thickened and thinned, changing drastically.
He calmly analyzed: “This is a battlefield. Powerful existences battled here a very long time ago… possibly it caused the Saint Hunting Mountain to tilt.”
“I feel the power of Buddha nature… it’s just scattered here,” Jing Li said seriously.
Everyone was using their own methods to obtain information.
Jiang Wang liked this kind of united and cooperative atmosphere very much: “And then?”
Jing Li looked slightly bewildered: “They seem to be resisting me.”
Jiang Wang pondered: “Heaven Buddha’s power resisting the orthodox Buddha sect’s little holy monk. Reasonable.”
If the power of Heaven Buddha, specifically the power of the Beg Life as is Bowl, once appeared here, under the circumstances of Ao Kui’s hurried treasure hiding and escape, it should be hidden in some dark, sunless place, waiting for Ao Kui to return many years later. Why would its power be scattered on Saint Hunting Mountain?
Ao Kui couldn’t possibly fail to see the important meaning of Saint Hunting Mountain to the Floating Land world, impossible to hide treasure here.
So how did it appear here?
If the power of the Beg Life as is Bowl was one side in this battle, then where did the other side’s power come from?
“I know what those several totem spirits harvested here,” Play Fate’s tone was very certain: “Spirituality incarnations.”
Jiang Wang found this somewhat strange: “Spirituality incarnations?”
“Just like your divine ability spirit phase… it’s the Bi Fang spirit, right?” Play Fate said: “When power reaches a certain level, even if the power is scattered, it can have spirituality. And under special environments, by chance, it can incarnate and be born!”
For this, Jing Li was very understanding: “At least it’s at the Great Bodhisattva realm to have such power. Flesh body relics, law proving Bodhi.”
At the Great Bodhisattva realm, even if power is scattered, every bit is Bodhi.
Play Fate continued: “The things that once roamed here were incarnations of scattered power after the battle of two powerful existences, so they can naturally embody certain power rules. It’s not uncommon for people who practice to a certain realm to gain enlightenment from them. They came very quickly, and the incarnated spirituality had not yet scattered. So what you said before, that totem spirit of the Pure Water Department, trying to break through not long after returning, makes sense.”
“The Beg Life as is Bowl in a certain sense represents the power of Heaven Buddha, what power can collide with it?” Bai Yuxia clicked his tongue: “Regardless of whether this power comes from the Floating Land, the Floating Land world is far from as simple as we see.”
“Ao Kui has already been here. What we see, he can certainly also see. How will he think? What will he do?” Jiang Wang tried to simulate Ao Kui’s thinking: “At the Floating Land human race level, he doesn’t have too many methods anymore. He will definitely seek an opportunity to break the situation here.”
“Does he still dare to jump out and fight us now?” Bai Yuxia joked. As the situation against Ao Kui unfolded, the entire Floating Land world became clearer in his eyes, and he became more and more certain of victory.
This wasn’t arrogance.
For smart people, the correct choices from the beginning weren’t many.
Jiang Wang vaguely had some guesses, but wasn’t in a hurry to express them. He turned directly and said: “Let’s go, to Ya Gan Heaven Pit. There’s nothing more to see here.”
This trip to Saint Hunting Mountain was quite fruitful, supplementing world cognition, stringing together time clues, discovering the Floating Land’s historical blank, and also shocking Ao Kui.
Next was the Ya Gan Lake of the Floating Land world over a thousand years ago, before the changes occurred in Saint Hunting Mountain.
If Saint Hunting Mountain was a father-like existence guarding the Floating Land human race, then Ya Gan Lake was the tolerant and loving mother of the Floating Land human race.
But one thousand one hundred and eleven years ago, it abruptly dried up, and has not been explained to this day, almost becoming a taboo.
Jiang Wang wanted to confirm the truth there one last time.
However, at this moment…
Rumble rumble!
A thunder-like sound echoed from deep underground.
The change occurred so suddenly.
The entire Saint Hunting Mountain seemed like an exploded firecracker, booming magnificently, covering the sky and hiding the earth. Billions of jun of soil and stone split, billions of jun of world origin roared. It was not just a mountain!
It was the origin of the Floating Land world’s human race.
Terrifying power swept out, instantly engulfing the four people who were just about to leave!
In such an abrupt explosion, the first to brighten was golden Buddha light.
Jing Li shone all over, taking a step across to Jiang Wang’s front, supporting the sky with one palm.
His action was simple and straightforward, just like his person, clean and simple.
Along with his support, a huge illusion of a Buddha palm appeared, bringing infinite beautiful scenery, as if from the Ultimate Bliss World, gently supporting the four people in this earth-shaking explosion.
This palm was like a separate world, infinitely beautiful inside, while outside the earth collapsed and the sky cracked.
The orthodox Buddha sect, Ultimate Bliss Seal Law!
Inside this palm, one enjoyed Ultimate Bliss, protected from wind and rain. Outside this palm, the Buddha light split, cracking into dense and magnificent palm prints, booming out simultaneously towards all directions: up, front, back, left, right.
Mountain stones came, he supported the mountain stones. Giant trees came, he supported the giant trees… bearing and resolving the offensive in an instant, in the millions!
The explosion of Saint Hunting Mountain was not a simple mountain body collapse.
But its history, origin, and mass were all destroyed in an instant and became part of the destructive power.
It was a heaven-level spell, Myriad Aspects Divine Obliteration!
Before recovering, Ao Kui relied on his more profound understanding of the Floating Land world, relied on the arrangements he had made in Saint Hunting Mountain first, and also relied on his once Star Lord aspirations… obliterating Saint Hunting Mountain and detonating the backlash of world origin, with indescribable malice, he pried loose Cave True level power!
Neither Jiang Wang, Play Fate, nor Jing Li could imagine or detect it, and thus they were hit!
Of course, this kind of power was uncontrollable. In that moment, it freely roared within the Floating Land world, the destructive power rushing in all directions, yet it somehow became more concentrated towards the four people.
Jing Li’s Ultimate Bliss Right Seal thus held on for two more breaths.
Finally, it also began to shatter.
In that instant, within the world where the sky was dark and the earth was dark, the dazzling golden light was like a candle flame being blown out.
A trace of pale golden blood appeared at the corner of Jing Li’s mouth.
On Play Fate’s back, a pair of steel wings instantly spread open, like hanging clouds, connecting the sky. They closed forward, sheltering everyone under the black iron colored wings, like a steel fortress!
Buddha light hidden, knife wings emerged.
Dense feather blades flew out successively, like thousands upon thousands of knife guests leaving their mother body, launching a deadly charge towards this heaven-destroying, earth-extinguishing offensive.
It was not about courage, it was the ultimate skill of mechanism technique, dissecting the enemy’s force and approaching it.
In the midst of doomsday, this was the brilliance of human wisdom!
Ding ding dang dang, the long metal rings.
The huge steel wings were first peeled off their knife feathers, then their bone frame was destroyed and folded. The power of Myriad Aspects Divine Obliteration, launched with the collapse of Saint Hunting Mountain, still continued.
And in this chaotic heaven and earth, blazing flame ancient stone tablets fell from the sky. Like high walls, they circled and united, firmly blocking the four people in the middle.
Thirty-six pieces of Fire Source Totem Stele, representing the most fundamental Fire Source power of the Floating Land world, re-established order upon this!
The Red Undying Flame City was born here.
Jiang Wang, Jing Li, Play Fate, and Bai Yuxia were standing in some street of this Flame City at this moment.
People’s voices were noisy in their ears, the flame sparrows were noisy in the sky.
Flame flowers bloomed all over the suburbs outside the city, flame meteors carried beautiful wishes.
Compared to the moment when the Fire Source Totem Stele were first combined, at this time the Fire Realm had already perfectly blended everything.
It could be called, True Source Fire Realm!
Though the heaven and earth were dark, the fire light did not extinguish!
In such firm burning, the collapse of Saint Hunting Mountain finally came to an end.
Mountain stones turned into fine sand, piling up a small slope under their feet.
The origin history of the Floating Land human race, the traces of worship, and the rock paintings… all the old traces on the mountain no longer existed.
Of course, as early as over a thousand years ago, half of its history had already been destroyed along with the mountain body. Now it was just connecting the ending.
“Outer heaven evil thief, what dog guts! You tilted my Saint Hunting Mountain, destroyed my sky-supporting spine!” At this moment, a voice like a flood rose.
Grand and powerful voices rose one after another, approaching extremely fast.
“So you are world-destroying thieves, with ulterior motives!”
They saw nine totem spirits in total, from different tribes like Hun Tu, Xiao Lei, etc. They were already all spiritized, the human body images were blurred, only groups of different colored and momentum-filled totem spirits remained. As they shouted, Yuan force surged like a sea, showing the might of heaven and earth, surrounding the Fire Realm.
Earth totem, wind totem, thunder totem… various origin totems were engraved on ancient stone pillars, the stone pillars seeming to support the sky! Just like this, they supported a majestic altar in this moment, to sacrifice the world origin, to punish the rash outer thieves!
Obscure ancient chanting floated between heaven and earth.
This world, at this moment, so clearly rejected outsiders.
The Floating Land world’s origin, undoubtedly favored these totem spirits.
But the man who walked to the front inside the Flame City only asked faintly: “Why doesn’t Ao Kui come out? Is he still not recovered from his injuries, still not brave enough to face me?”
“We don’t know any Ao Kui, but you dared to destroy Saint Hunting Mountain. As people of the Floating Land, we can definitely not rest with you!”
“Zhang Lin Chuan, your death is nigh! Surrender with bound hands, or have a complete corpse!”
“Why waste words with him. Take advantage of him being sick, take his life!”
Several totem spirits, each more majestic than the last, each more righteous than the last.
Jiang Wang laughed: “What makes you think I’m ‘sick’?”
He walked on the flame-cast street with his hands behind his back, just lifting his foot, and putting it down—
“What makes you think… this is my limit?”
The True Source Fire Realm rapidly expanded, instantly swallowing these nine totem spirits, along with their ancient altar, into this realm!
The limit range of Jiang Wang’s Voice Hear Immortal Domain when it was established was three thousand zhang square. As his practice advanced firmly, it was still constantly expanding. Now the True Source Fire Realm had also caught up squarely.
The True Source Fire Realm expanded when he lifted his foot, and the dust had settled when he put his foot down.
There was fundamentally no room for resistance.
The instant the nine totem spirits fell into the True Source Fire Realm, they were already burned to only fist-sized spirituality light balls.
Arbitrarily kneaded and flattened!
Too weak. To the current Jiang Wang, these totem spirits were really too weak.
Certainly they could mobilize the heaven and earth power of this world, display combat power not inferior to God Arrive, and their lifespan was also elevated because of spiritization, but their weakness was also so clear— once their connection with the origin totem was isolated, it was like throwing a net of fish onto the shore.
And now the True Source Fire Realm already completely possessed everything needed to become an independent realm.
Although they were in the Floating Land, they were in a realm within a realm, no longer in the Floating Land!
Being cut into five-colored ball shapes, purely because it was beautiful… the victor could have leisure!
Now these nine groups of spirituality light balls were suspended before Jiang Wang, wailing and repenting, begging for mercy endlessly.
Jiang Wang did not ask them questions.
If Ao Kui controlled so many totem spirits and they knew some secret key, then the battle within this cage-like Floating Land world fundamentally wouldn’t have started.
How could Jiang Wang, who had walked through so many years of wind and rain, still be deceived by such incompetent people?
He only quietly looked at these nine groups of spirituality light balls, trying to see the old dragon manipulating them, and said in a gentle tone: “Ao Kui, where are you hiding? Why are you stingy about a meeting? Aren’t we friends of forgetting the years? Aren’t I your dear little friend?”
“Hehehehe…”
Among the nine groups of spirituality light balls, the purple spirituality light ball representing the totem spirit of the Xiao Lei Department instantly turned pitch-black, still retaining a certain self within this greatly suppressed True Source Fire Realm.
Cunning as Ao Kui, he did indeed still leave means to control some or all of the nine totem spirits!
Hearing Jiang Wang’s greeting, for the first time after descending to the Floating Land world, he formally dialogued with Jiang Wang: “You really surprised me, little friend! The first time I met you, you were still an ant, that monk’s burden. Now you can actually sit down and play against me, forcing me to this point… Myriad Aspects Divine Obliteration couldn’t even kill you.”
Jiang Wang calmly looked at this group of pitch-black light balls: “How could you forget? It was precisely this burden that made you miss the Star Lord position.”
Inside the pitch-black light ball, Ao Kui laughed heartily: “Oh, oh! Sorry, always thinking of you as a child! Getting along day and night for so long, forgot you were originally so fierce.”
Jiang Wang said: “Forgetting is irrelevant, this time I’ll help you remember.”
“But little friend, you also need to remember. If it weren’t for that bald one, you still wouldn’t be qualified to be at the table.”
“All your chips are almost gone, now is still the time to consider qualifications?”
“Then is there anything else to say?” the voice inside the pitch-black light ball said.
Jiang Wang said: “Tell me what you were covering up by triggering Myriad Aspects Divine Obliteration in advance.”
“I remember, remember what I want to say. You still left someone in the Qing Fire Department, right?”
The pitch-black light ball flickered violently several times and suddenly swelled, Ao Kui’s voice also becoming malicious with it—
“She wants to die!”
