Chapter 2257: Hello, Ancient God

Sticky darkness surged above the array, gradually drifting toward the edge of the array. Just as it left the range of the array, part of the darkness evaporated. Without the array supplying energy, this darkness without a source couldn't exist.

"Mortal, I accept your tribute."

A low voice came from the darkness.

Su Xiao didn't answer, just took a few steps back, his eyes looking around.

"Don't panic, continue to offer these 'stones', and I will make you my Spirit Sacrifice."

"Spirit Sacrifice..."

Su Xiao had obvious "doubt," and he was very vigilant. The doubt was of course fake, but the vigilance was real. The bait had already been swallowed, and the remaining bait couldn't be lost.

And he had just killed a follower of the Ancient God, so he couldn't show that he knew anything about the Min-Light God Cult, otherwise he would be exposed.

Now the role he had to play was a young man with some strength who had just gone to sea and was looking for mystery, and the kind who was easily exploited.

With Su Xiao's age and appearance, he didn't need to disguise other aspects, but the "easily exploited" part wasn't easy to act.

"Send the stones on the ground to... these rings."

Maybe he hadn't seen an alchemy array, so the Ancient God called the array rings.

"In principle, I can't do it."

"Hmm? Do you want to defy God."

The Ancient God was clearly a bit displeased.

"After the array is activated, I will die if I enter that area."

"..."

The Ancient God was silent. Not understanding alchemy was his hard injury.

The darkness surged for a moment, then stopped at the edge of the array and began to rotate, turning into a black vortex.

Click click click...

It seemed that something was breaking. A gray-black big hand protruded from the vortex. This big hand had sharp claws, and the rough and heavy skin had exoskeletons in some areas.

Seeing these exoskeletons, Su Xiao thought that this Ancient God should be the same breed as the Moon God, both of which could grant power to followers.

The big hand grabbed toward the soul crystals on the ground. At this moment, Su Xiao suddenly disappeared from where he stood. In order to pursue speed, he used Dragon Shadow Flash to penetrate space.

Su Xiao suddenly appeared in front of the Ancient God's big hand and drew his blade instantly.

"Blade Dao Blade: Extreme."

The long blade slashed, and almost at the same time, Su Xiao manipulated the alchemy array on the ground, causing the array to collapse.

Zing!

The blade edge sounded crisp. Checking Zhan Long Shan slashed across the Ancient God's little finger. Because this Ancient God was also vigilant, the tip of Checking Zhan Long Shan only slashed across its little finger, and the wound wasn't even half a centimeter deep.

"Tiny mor..."

Before the word "tal" could come out, the alchemy array collapsed, the darkness above dissipated, and the Ancient God's arm, which was the carrier, disappeared.

Ding~

A soul crystal fell to the ground. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, holding the backpack in its mouth, ran up, picked up the soul crystal, wiped it, and put it into the backpack.

The Ancient God's energy fluctuations dissipated completely and couldn't be tracked at all. Looking at it this way, Su Xiao, who had 4 soul crystals (complete) taken away, was simply at a huge loss.

A drop of black blood dripped along the tip of Checking Zhan Long Shan. Before it landed, it was grabbed by Su Xiao. This drop of black blood spread in his palm, and the skin of his palm felt a faint stinging pain.

Everything Su Xiao did was to drag that Ancient God out, and now, he succeeded. This drop of blood was enough.

The black blood floated slowly, gradually outlining a black mark, hexagonal, about the size of a dragon's eye.

This ability was an ability attached to one of Su Xiao's titles.

Su Xiao grabbed the blood mark in his hand and closed his eyes to perceive. The scene in front of him changed rapidly, and a large building complex appeared. This was a certain place within the "Fuyinding Kingdom."

The vision looked down from high altitude, and Su Xiao saw a large group of men and women in gray robes with strange auras near the buildings below. They were kneeling on the ground, chanting in unison.

The vision zoomed in, arriving in a spire. This was a somewhat dim room, and a figure was sitting on a stone chair.

Under the detection of the blood mark, this figure became semi-transparent in Su Xiao's eyes. This wasn't the Ancient God's true body, but an energy avatar generated by the other party.

The scene in front of Su Xiao pulled away, and it turned into an endless sea. A moment later, a scene appeared in front of him: a somewhat gloomy sky, and below was a shallow water area where all things withered.

An old wooden boat floated on the shore, and a figure in a tattered black robe stood at the bow, waiting for something.

The vision continued to move forward. After passing through the turbid shallow water area, it was a long-abandoned hall. On the stone throne deep in the hall sat a figure, and darkness shrouded him.

Found it. This figure in the darkness was the Ancient God!

The focus in Su Xiao's eyes recovered. He let go of his hand, and the blood mark floated beside him.

"Go."

Su Xiao walked quickly out of the small building. After Xiang Bubu and Bahar collected the items on the ground, they followed quickly.

The Ancient God wasn't within the territory of the "Fuyinding Kingdom." This guy was very vigilant and hid on an isolated island to avoid being conquered by the pirates and various kingdoms again.

Within the territory of the "Fuyinding Kingdom" was the headquarters of the Min-Light God Cult. There was an energy avatar of the Ancient God here, while the Ancient God's true body was on an isolated island. Obviously, this tumor, the Min-Light God Cult, was very unstable, and that Ancient God also knew this.

Leaving the small building, Su Xiao headed straight for the pier. Now he must be fast. He didn't know if that Ancient God had already summoned the members of the Min-Light God Cult, or rather, this Ancient God who used the Min-Light God Cult as a tool didn't trust the members of the Min-Light God Cult, so he hid on an isolated island.

A few minutes later, Su Xiao leaped onto the Doom Ship. Under the astonished gazes of many pirates, the Doom Ship's sails were lowered, and the ropes on the ship moved by themselves, hoisting the sails and setting sail.

The speed of the Doom Ship was definitely in the top tier on the Viking Sea. Through the tracking of the blood mark, the Doom Ship headed straight for an isolated island on the sea.

Su Xiao ignored the passing pirate ships and no longer fished for sea beasts. The Doom Ship was at full speed.

In the captain's cabin, Su Xiao manipulated the blood mark to float in front of him. The time limit was only 12 hours. As long as that Ancient God hadn't left the "isolated island," even if the blood mark dissipated after 12 hours of sailing, it wouldn't be a problem. The direction had been obtained, and Su Xiao could completely lock this direction through the nautical chart + compass, and then sail toward this direction. He had already remembered the general appearance of the isolated island in his mind.

Time passed rapidly during the voyage: 1 hour, 2 hours, 5 hours...

The sky gradually darkened. During the tracking, the remaining time of the blood mark was only 1 hour and 07 minutes.

In the previous 11 hours and 53 minutes, the sailing distance of the Doom Ship was equivalent to 6 to 7 days of sailing for an ordinary three-masted ship.

The waves slapped, and after continuing to sail for 1 hour and 07 minutes, the blood mark gradually dissipated in the air. Seeing this, Su Xiao picked up a nautical chart he had drawn himself. Except for him, no second person could understand this thing. It wasn't for secrecy, but his level of drawing nautical charts was limited.

Now only a general direction remained. Su Xiao wasn't discouraged. Nothing would go as planned. When encountering difficulties, of course, he would find ways to solve them, rather than giving up or letting things take their course.

After continuing to sail for nearly 3 hours, the Doom Ship actually slowed down and stopped. Discovering this situation, Su Xiao walked quickly out of the captain's cabin.

The Doom Ship's sails were lowered, and the wind in the surrounding sea area stopped. There was no wind at all. As a ship powered by wind, the Doom Ship naturally couldn't sail.

"No wonder he would hide here."

Su Xiao walked to the ship's side. Just as he was about to leap into the sea, Amu, who was dragging the cable, had already leaped down first.

"Xiang Bubu, south, 419.227.11."

After Su Xiao said the precise coordinates, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang also leaped down to guide the direction for Amu in the sea.

Benny also leaped into the sea, swam to the stern of the ship, and vigilantly watched for sea beasts that might appear behind.

The Doom Ship gradually sailed forward, and the speed became faster and faster. It was Amu swimming in the sea, pulling the ship forward.

"Bahar, sky, south, 914.722.11."

"Leave it to me."

Bahar flew into the high sky and began to act as an aerial coordinate, and started looking for small islands that might appear nearby. Although it was night, with its eyesight, if there was an island nearby, it would definitely be discovered in the first time.

After sailing for less than an hour, Bahar swooped down from the high sky and said urgently: "Found it. There is a large swamp on the island. I didn't dare to get too close, I could only see this much."

"Very good. Let Amu change direction. You continue to be vigilant nearby and don't let the target escape."

"Understood."

Bahar flew away. In a short while, the Doom Ship turned in place and began to sail in the opposite direction, stopping after sailing for more than 20 minutes.

It was night now, and Su Xiao didn't plan to go to the island to find that Ancient God now. According to his speculation, the night might increase the combat power of that Ancient God. Tomorrow morning would be the time to land on the island. ===== CHAPTER 2258 =====
