Chapter 958

Principal, the immortal vessel also uses cold weapons……

Bullshit, have you ever seen someone forge a pulse weapon into a cold weapon? Their battle blades are all hot weapons, they just look like cold weapons." Angre curled his lips; with Xing and Dan Heng's abilities, as long as Weng Faluo remains in the era where both sides slash at each other with swords and shields, it's hard to pose any threat to them. Even if thousands of troops are mobilized, as long as Dan Heng is in a place with water, it's still a case of the more that come, the more that die.

That huge spear is probably not a conventional killing weapon. A spear estimated to be ten-something meters long, its kinetic energy alone could instantly crush a person to ashes……It's likely the locals developed a weapon similar to a 'missile'.

——

Suddenly, a mysterious pink creature resembling a rabbit appeared outside the divine temple, observing the two from afar.

"Myst……"

Xing felt something looking at her, but when she turned around, she found nothing behind her.

"...?"

"How's it going?"

"Who's peeking at us?"

Dan Heng immediately went on alert: "... Someone nearby? Be careful, pick up your weapon. First check what's behind the door."

The two passed through the temple's gate; behind it were more ancient broken walls and ruins. The light here was dim and unclear, she faintly felt something ahead, but could never see it clearly.

"It's so dark, is it night now……"

Xing stepped forward——just an ordinary step, but suddenly the surrounding light and scene changed in unison.

It was as if someone suddenly pulled back the curtain blocking the sun; in an instant, light poured in from all directions. That light was warm and soft, falling on the skin, bringing a dazing warmth.

Xing froze, she even heard children's laughter in the distance, as if she had stepped into another space with one foot.

Here the weather was fine and sunny, buildings were densely packed, orderly and neat, completely different from the temple they had just rushed into.

"... what?"

But she continued forward; after just a few steps, the surroundings suddenly reverted to the ruined temple, as if the moment just now had merely been an illusion in her eyes.

"Over there, the pink one." Dan Heng pointed in that direction; not far away in midair there indeed was a creature like a rabbit, that mysterious being, flying.

"Can you see it too?"

"Yeah, not an illusion."

The two followed the mysterious creature forward; the ground beneath their feet changed again, Dan Heng slowed his pace slightly and began to carefully observe the surroundings. There were many illusory children here, either crying or laughing, appearing and disappearing together with this illusion.

"Here it again, is it doing this? This phenomenon… is hard to explain."

As this illusion faded, the two arrived before the next gate, only this time that creature had already disappeared.

"It disappeared… doesn't give us a chance to figure things out. Did you get a clear look at that creature's appearance?"

Xing nodded: "Yeah, kind of like a behind-the-scenes black hand."

One-Punch Man

"This is……an illusion? The local creatures of Weng Faluo actually have such heaven-defying ability?"

Yuanzǐ Wushi clicked his tongue in amazement; no wonder Weng Faluo could give birth to three envoy-level beings—truly a land of outstanding people and spirit, even the local animals possess such heaven-defying ability.

No, this little thing is quite special; Xing, just as she entered the edge of Weng Faluo's atmosphere, heard its voice in the darkness. Theoretically, no creature should exist there. Child Emperor lowered his head, thought seriously, and said: "Moreover, have you noticed that the illusion this creature creates isn't merely a simple illusion; it also possesses a certain 'time' property."

Drive Knight nodded and said: "According to my analysis, the architectural structure of the temple in the illusion highly matches that of the ruined temple they are currently in. I guess that pink creature creates illusions based on the temple from hundreds of years ago."

"This, this is too amazing, right? It feels like after we leave Weng Faluo, we could catch a pink rabbit and treat it as a local specialty of Weng Faluo for Black Tower Lady to study." Back-Clothed Venerable said with interest, "If the ability to create illusions based on 'time' could be used by a genius, the prospects would be limitless."

"Leaving Weng Faluo is probably not that simple, right?" Shining Fúláishì crossed his arms, "Moreover, this rabbit is very agile, not so easy to catch. Compared to that, don't you think their immediate priority is to survive on Weng Faluo?"

The dilapidated, ruined temple, the powerful weapon capable of shooting down train carriages, the eerie pink flying rabbit……Weng Faluo has shown its extraordinarily unusual side from the very beginning—but this also sparked Fúláishì's curiosity, he smelled the scent of gunpowder, this planet called Weng Faluo is likely far more complicated than they imagined.

——

"Not like any species recorded in the database, but that's only natural—Weng Faluo is completely unknown to us." Dan Heng said, "Even Yaluo VI, before the train arrived we knew something about its history and terrain. But Weng Faluo… the few descriptions from the black swan are all we know of it."

"What should we do next, look for locals?"

"We'd better prepare for the worst, first not talking about language issues, the earlier attack… that strike's power is quite impressive, it's hard to imagine an isolated border star actually possessing such weapon technology."

Xing: "How does the Secret Art of Dragon Transformation compare?"

Dan Heng frowned slightly: "No one can say for sure; avoid blind optimism. Just feel your way forward."

The two passed through the gate ahead, and suddenly it opened up into a wide expanse.

A majestic and imposing city gate stood in the distance, separated by a bottomless chasm, gazing at each other from afar with the two.

The stone walls of the city gate seemed to be built from huge square stone bricks, each about the height of two people; after who knows how much wind and rain, the edges have been worn smooth, yet they appear all the more massive and imposing.

"It feels oppressive and quite ancient… Is this some kind of cultural architecture of the area?"

The two followed the slope up to a high platform, which was the outer periphery of the god's temple; besides the ancient ruins, weeds grew everywhere. Dan Heng looked around and said, "This area doesn't look like anyone lives here, and the strange creatures we saw earlier are gone. But…"

"Look, over there."

Dan Heng's gaze locked onto the distant horizon.

That is a statue of a giant.

The giant is half-kneeling, one leg bent, its knee resting on a lofty mountain ridge, while the other leg merges with the mountains beneath its feet; from afar, it resembles the heaven‑supporting, earth‑standing deity of myth.

The giant bears a massive sphere on its back, as if carrying the whole world, or as if holding up… a sun.
