Chapter 1291

Countless divine runes flew upward, dancing like spirits across heaven and earth.

It was the 'Diyuzhi Sect Magic Tower'.

After being amplified a hundredfold through sacrifice, this magic tower's power erupted, fully comparable to a High True God of the First Layer Scorching Sun realm.

Terrifying beyond measure.

It is the strongest foundation of the Lei Ting Shangcheng.

At this moment.

On the third layer of the tower.

Two figures sat cross-legged in perfect stillness.

The figure on the left possessed a head of eerie purple hair, with a handsome face that appeared cold and merciless.

Behind him, five bright moons hovered faintly in the sky, shaking the void.

The figure on the right wore ancient green battle armor, his eyes filled entirely with death.

A cold greatsword lay horizontally between his legs, emitting tendrils of terrifying divine might that tore the void apart with ease.

Beside them stood a group of warhorses treading upon green flames of death.

"Death is the destination of all things, and also the beginning of all things; it is the rule of the endless void, and the inevitable path for all living beings..."

A indifferent voice came from the Death Knight 'Cromwell'.

"The destination of all things..."

"The beginning of all things..."

The Devouring Heaven Maned Lion, Zilin, murmured to himself.

Although the divine office he mastered had little relation to death.

But—

He still wished to comprehend death.

After all—

Death is an extremely powerful divine office, and also an extremely special one.

This divine office remains pure from start to finish.

Whether at the First Layer divine office level or the Fourth Layer divine office level.

It requires no integration with other divine offices.

Pure and terrifying.

With the Death Knight 'Cromwell' guarding the Shangcheng alongside him.

He could naturally ask directly whenever he did not understand something.

Yet death remained too complex.

Even with his extraordinary talent, having condensed five bright moons while in a medium-grade plane, he still found it difficult to comprehend.

"Why must you walk the path of death?"

"The path of devouring is no weaker than death."

Cromwell spoke.

His voice was low, carrying a sense of despair.

For him—

Zilin was far too young.

His experiences were far too few.

He was far from understanding the true essence of death.

"Devouring..."

Zilin's gaze flickered.

But before he could ponder carefully.

Suddenly—

"By the divine decree of Lord Ma Luo, the master of this place must come out immediately to meet the Divine Lord!"

"... Come out immediately to meet the Divine Lord!"

"... Meet the Divine Lord!"

"... Divine Lord!"

A loud shout rang out, its echoes reverberating and stirring up storms spanning tens of thousands of kilometers!

The entire Shangcheng seemed on the verge of collapsing under this terrifying sound wave.

And at this moment—

Some True God ministers of the Lei Ting Dynasty who had appeared in the Shangcheng heard this—

Their faces instantly turned deathly pale, their divine bodies trembling.

Ma Luo!

This name.

For them, was simply synonymous with terror.

The True Gods adapted quickly to the new era.

Information spread quickly as well.

Almost no True God was unaware of which terrifying experts resided in the Ice and Fire Corridor.

And Ma Luo—

Was one of the top five terrifying existences in the Ice and Fire Corridor!

How could he suddenly appear here?

What does he intend to do?

In an instant.

A vast number of True Gods felt fear in their hearts.

If such an existence were to strike at them, a mere casual wave of his hand would wipe them all out!

Inside the Magic Tower.

"Malori, who is this?"

Death Knight Cromwell asked.

"... I am not sure."

Zilin shook his head.

"Since he is a nobody, just kill him."

Cromwell rose directly and walked out of the Magic Tower.
