Chapter 333: with translation of chapter title
title: Main text Chapter 334: Trace of the Chief Divine Artifact
Let's go, let's head home to cultivate.
Xiao Feng had seen enough, had nothing else to do, so he decided to go home to train his willpower.
Unexpectedly, He Er Na said: "No need to rush back. Master, while I was idly wandering I sensed the energy fluctuations of the chief divine artifact and was about to go look for it. Disturbed by the temple people, I just happened to wait for you, now we can go together to check it out."
"Huh? It's already appeared this fast? The temple emissaries haven't even come down yet!" Xiao Feng exclaimed in surprise.
He Er Na frowned, "I don't know why either; that aura feels very weak and seems abnormal—perhaps there's something I don't know about."
Well then, let's go take a look.
Xiao Feng nodded.
The chief divine artifact is incredibly powerful, far surpassing super mythic gear; he didn't want to miss it.
"Dai Ni Si, go home on your own; I and the master will go and come back quickly." He Er Na told her daughter as she prepared to leave.
Dai Ni Si instantly became upset, grabbed He Er Na's hand, and pleaded pitifully: "I want to go too, Mother Goddess, Xiao Feng~ please take me along~"
"The chief divine artifact is of utmost importance and full of danger; you're still too young, don't be willful, hurry back!" He Er Na hardened her face, a stark contrast to her usual gentleness.
"Wuu, I'm not little..."
Seeing her turn serious, Dai Ni Si dared not cause any more trouble, she sniffled sadly and left reluctantly.
Master, let's set off.
After seeing Dai Ni Si walk away, He Er Na put away her stern expression and returned to her calm composure.
Hmm, where is it?
"It's near War City; I'll fly you there quickly." He Er Na said.
Immediately she waved her jade hand, the wind element obeyed her will, lifting Xiao Feng and herself straight into the air.
Around, many players were still walking about; upon seeing Xiao Feng, the top player and a 415-level goddess, they stared fixedly. Seeing them take flight, they couldn't help but exclaim in astonishment.
However, the shock Xiao Feng caused was already too great; after a brief surprise, people quickly calmed down.
He Er Na's flight speed is very fast; even with Xiao Feng aboard, she can cover nearly two hundred meters per second, faster than the Thunder God.
This ability made Xiao Feng intensely envious.
The two quickly left War City and flew north toward a lake.
North of War City lies a plain; further north of that plain is a lake spanning tens of kilometers, inhabited by wild monsters around level 170.
At this stage, players rarely venture to such a high-level map to grind, so their appearance drew no attention.
He Er Na brought Xiao
Feng landed by the lake and closed his eyes to sense the exact location of the chief divine artifact.
But note that line 27 ended with "He Er Na brought Xiao". So line 28 starts with "Feng landed by the lake". Combined they'd be "He Er Na brought Xiao Feng landed by the lake..." but we must treat separately.
We'll translate line 28: "Feng landed by the lake, closed eyes to sense the exact location of the chief divine artifact."
After a moment, she pointed toward the lake's center and said: "It should be at the lake bottom; the energy fluctuation is a bit weak, but it is definitely the aura of the chief divine artifact."
"What are we waiting for? Let's go!" Xiao Feng said eagerly.
Yes, Master.
He Er Na obeyed, flashing toward the lake surface.
This lake is enormous; its edge cannot be seen even after tens of kilometers.
Xiao Feng really wanted to see what the chief divine artifact looked like; he had just learned Wind Control Technique, so he followed and flew over.
However, his speed was much slower than He Er Na's; although he was also traveling at seventy to eighty, the distance between them gradually widened.
Soon, He Er Na had already reached the vicinity of the lake's center.
She wore a green gauze robe, gliding gracefully, her bare feet touching the lake surface, appearing like a fairy.
Having arrived at the spot, she did not immediately enter the water, but waited in place.
Splash~
At this moment, the water surface began to ripple.
Beneath the deep water, it seemed as if something was about to burst out!
"Any monsters?" Xiao Feng thought.
He took out the Fire God Staff and wrapped himself in two layers of elemental shield.
Splosh~
Just as the shield was set, the distant water surface suddenly exploded with a huge splash.
Ong~
A low yet resonant sound, like a divine dragon's long chant, rang out.
Xiao Feng stared and saw an extremely long creature, like a giant snake, surge out of the water.
It hadn't fully emerged, but the portion above water was already over 40 meters tall, like a…… pipe!
Its skin was light blue, with a round little head bearing a small horn.
As soon as it appeared, it opened its not-so-large mouth and lunged to bite He Er Na.
You beast, how dare you act so recklessly!
He Er Na gave a low shout, pressing down with one hand.
Bang!
The air was compressed downward, creating a sonic boom.
The immense pressure forced the creature's head to sink into the lake water, kicking up huge waves.
At the same time, Xiao Feng also saw the creature's attributes.
【【Demigod·Deepwater Plesiosaur (Mythic Leader)】】
Level: 275
Life Points: 44,550,000/49,600,000
Attack Power: 208000
Physical Defense: 56000
Magic Defense: 62000
Skills: Water Wave Technique, Rainstorm Technique, Li Ti Collision, Fatal Vortex, Forbidden·Deep Water Prison
In this 170-level monster map, there actually lurks a 275-level demigod monster!
Speaking solely of monster stats, this guy is still quite formidable; aside from Xiao Feng himself, no player team at this stage can defeat it.
But it encountered He Er Na, an Upper God!
With just a casual small skill, she dealt 5,000,000 HP of damage; if it dared to resist, it would be instantly killed in a split second.
"Ah… Upper God spare me, Upper God spare me!"
After seeing He Er Na's strength, the demigod monster no longer dared to fight back, lying prone on the water surface, its neck resembling a pipe swaying continuously, as if kowtowing.
Demigod-level monsters can all speak; this deep-water plesiosaur is naturally no exception.
Xiao Feng flew up close.
Only when he got close did he see the creature's underwater body.
Its underwater portion is vastly larger than the neck above water; roughly estimated, the body plus tail are at least a hundred meters long, its mass at least several thousand tons, and it's unknown how it stays afloat on the surface.
He Er Na stood atop the waves; although she wasn't as high as the plesiosaur's head, she seemed to be looking down on it from above.
"Hand over the divine artifact." She commanded in a tone that allowed no objection.
"What… what is a divine artifact?" the plesiosaur asked doubtfully.
Smack!
As her words fell, He Er Na casually waved her hand, wind elements coalescing into an enormous palm that directly slapped the plesiosaur's huge head, sending it flying.
With that force and angle, Xiao Feng truly feared its long neck would snap straight off.
-13,220,000 (critical hit)
The huge damage number rose from above the plesiosaur's head, its health bar dropping by almost half.
"Hand over the divine artifact, or… die!" He Er Na said coldly.
"Wuu… Upper God spare me, I truly don't know what a divine artifact is, really~"
The plesiosaur finally managed to twist its neck back, pleading miserably.
"Huh?"
He Er Na's eyes flashed, killing intent surging.
"Wait a moment." Xiao Feng hurriedly called out to her.
"Master?" He Er Na restrained her breath, pausing her attack.
"Mas… master?"
Upon hearing that address, the plesiosaur thought it was dreaming.
However, at this life-or-death juncture, it couldn't care less who was master, and immediately shouted: "Warrior, warrior! You have to believe me—I really don't know what the Upper God is talking about! Please let me go, I'm just an innocent little plesiosaur~"
