Chapter 334

The lively sacrificial ceremony ended.

The entire city of Ge Wushu.

Slowly returned to its usual bustle.

Humans farmed, half-beasts hunted, gray dwarves forged, rat-men mined, goblins crafted machinery…

All manner of beings under the rule of the Lei Ting Sect.

Orderly and disciplined.

Outside the city,

Led by the half-gods: Angel Julia, Black Dragon Fu Luli, and Bone Dragon Xie Tuo.

Lei Ting Titan Xupo Li, Dark Ancient Tree Kalim, Black Moon Elf Ai Lu Ni, and eight Black Moon Archmages.

Fourteen figures stood scattered across the landscape.

"Let's go."

Angel Julia's voice was cold and clear.

She gripped her staff, the rhombus gem on her brow shining with solemn majesty.

Her snow-white wings unfolded gently.

Hu—

She lifted her head and shot straight upward.

"Ang!"

Black Dragon Fu Luli and Bone Dragon Xie Tuo flapped their wings, becoming two streaks—black and gray—that vanished into the horizon.

Lei Ting Titan Xupo Li grinned, then transformed directly into lightning, vast and thunderous, vanishing into the sky.

Ai Lu Ni and the eight Black Moon Archmages swung their staves.

Thick darkness energy enveloped them.

The next instant—

Their bodies vanished.

Flashing into view ten kilometers away.

Then another flash, advancing another ten kilometers.

This was the Black Moon Archmages' skill—Darkness Travel!

"I…"

Kalim opened his mouth, stunned.

Watching his companions vanish in an instant.

He silently, slowly took to the air.

Speed—

Compared to the lightning-fast others ahead,

Was like the classic tortoise in the hare-and-tortoise race.

A group's speed

Is not determined by the fastest member.

But by the slowest.

By the time Dark Ancient Tree Kalim reached the depths of the Dark Forest,

It was already the third day.

Seeing his companions staring at him with blank expressions,

Kalim brushed his hundred roots against his head and chuckled awkwardly:

"Old age, stiff limbs."

"Enough."

"Go in."

Julia said coolly.

She retracted her wings behind her.

All her light energy was fully withdrawn.

Even the power of her Judgement divine office was tightly suppressed.

She looked—

Like an ordinary human mage.

Ahead of them,

Stood an enormous mountain.

The entire mountain was black, barren of any vegetation.

Faintly,

Thin tendrils of darkness energy seeped out, giving a chilling sensation.

At the mountain's center,

A pitch-black cave exuded a sinister aura.

The cave was at least a thousand meters high.

Not a single ray of light penetrated inside.

It resembled an ancient, terrifying beast, jaws wide open, waiting for living beings to walk into its trap.

"This aura…"

"It is indeed a Dark System True God."

"This is truly the ruins of a Dark System True God's divine realm."

Within the divine realm.

Li Yue stared without blinking.

Back then.

He was still very weak.

He followed the God of Hail to that Dark True God's ruins.

He only dared to target the pack of Velociraptors outside.

He never dared to enter the ruins themselves.

But now it's different—

His forces were strong and well-equipped; even the ruins of a Dark True God—

He could venture inside and explore.

The ruins of a True God's divine realm.

Must contain immense value.

"The five Half-Gods of the Dark Alliance dared to enter."

"That means the dangers at the ruins' perimeter are not high."
