Chapter 3471: You've Come

The entire Ancient Capital turned into a fire domain, as if the earth veins had been blown through. Rolling magma gushed out from underground, and soil, rocks, and broken walls were melted by the high temperature. This place had turned into a magma lake, becoming a forbidden zone for living beings in the true sense.

A group of Qiyuezhe watched this scene. Most of them stopped to watch for a moment, then turned and left. Obviously, they didn't want to participate in this matter. There was no need to know too many details; just seeing this formation was enough to know it was not a good thing.

Originally, everyone thought it was safe to watch the show here, but after seeing the cross-shaped "Sun Holy Sword" just now, they realized that this place didn't seem safe.

Su Xiao didn't care about the dispersing Qiyuezhe. He had been waiting for the kill prompt. Although someone had once created a "fake prompt" by way of a substitute death, right now the Apollos were exhausted, yet no kill prompt appeared. Sure enough, the Gray Gentleman didn't put all his eggs in one basket. Even if he brought the "remains" of the Dawn Paradise this time, the opponent still didn't bet everything on this.

Or rather, this was very much in line with the Gray Gentleman's style. For such a long time, based on Su Xiao's understanding of the Gray Gentleman, the opponent's habit was to plan the "main goal" first, while also preparing "secondary goals."

When the "main goal" was about to collapse due to a strong enemy or situation, the Gray Gentleman would pretend to continue to persist, but in fact, he had already transferred to the "secondary goal," and would also use the "main goal" as bait to attract the enemy's attention, giving him time to better complete the "secondary goal."

This time, the Gray Gentleman's "main goal" was the Dawn Paradise. What kind of "secondary goal" could match this level?

Various conjectures emerged in Su Xiao's mind. He listed several characteristics of the Tree-Born World:

1. This is a world belonging to the Void Tree, and it is impossible to reach this place through teleportation.

2. There are many areas in this world sealed by fog walls, inside which are imprisoned monsters bred by the invasion of abyss power.

3. There is a large amount of abyss power in this world.

Thinking of these, Su Xiao guessed a possibility. The Gray Gentleman's "secondary goal" might be abyss power. That should be his backup plan.

As a puppet master, the Gray Gentleman should not have only one body. Precisely because of this, when the skill upgrade chamber where the Gray Gentleman was located was blown up just now, the opponent didn't die.

To be precise, the body that the Gray Gentleman was in just now, which had obtained powerful strength through the Dawn Paradise, had died, but the Gray Gentleman's spirit, consciousness, and soul had not died, but had transferred to another body.

The "Dawn Paradise Revival Plan" laid out by the Gray Gentleman had many schemes, but after this plan failed, the opponent's backup plan must not have many schemes, or rather, the opponent's backup plan could only have one scheme, which was to obtain powerful strength and rely on this to survive the failure of this "main plan."

Or rather, the opponent wanted to make a comeback. The Gray Gentleman was the kind of person who would not give up or be decadent as long as he was not dead. The opponent never spoke big words, nor did he threaten, but what he did made people feel like they were on pins and needles, unable to sleep or eat in peace.

In other words, the 2,000 Apollos Su Xiao took out blew the Gray Gentleman's "Dawn Paradise Revival Plan" into ashes.

Assuming the Gray Gentleman's backup plan was really to scheme for abyss power, then the opponent was either in the Great Ruins in the far south or the Black Forest in the far north.

Compared to the Great Ruins, Su Xiao felt that the probability of the Gray Gentleman going to the Jibei Black Forest was higher. The abyss power there was in a "pure" state and had not yet provided gains to energy or living beings.

There was one more thing to feel guilty about. In the super big explosion just now, Su Xiao blew up both the Faceless Man, Pete Pepper, and the Butcher, Juro.

Su Xiao estimated that both were here to assassinate or ambush the Gray Gentleman. They hadn't been found before, and now that the Gray Gentleman finally appeared, the two rushed over, but before they could make a move, they died under the "Sun Holy Sword" of friendly fire.

Su Xiao checked the kill prompt that appeared just now.

【You have killed Butcher Juro.】

【You have obtained Hatred Bone Box: Giant Blood Hand (chest-type item, there is a certain probability of negative gains after opening).】

【You have killed Faceless Man Pete Pepper.】

【You have obtained Spirit Feast Box: Ten Thousand Faces (chest-type item).】

It was a bit strange. Killing Pig Brother and Faceless Man by mistake didn't grant soul coins, and the chests obtained were not orthodox chests, but rather chest-type items.

I don't know how Pig Brother and Faceless Man avoided the Death Domain. In the current situation, in Baja's words, one could only lick the package with tears.

As for giving the friendly forces a thick burial, don't talk about it. Those two didn't even have ashes left. The remains of the Dawn Paradise were blown away, let alone them.

However, there was one point: Su Xiao's war mission had not been completed, that is, "Assassinate Dawn Again" had not been completed.

The alliance didn't receive the kill prompt for Bee. For the Dawn Paradise, Bee should not be as simple as just the last Qiyuezhe. It was even possible that the current Bee was the temporary carrier of the Dawn Paradise, after all, the remaining remains of the Dawn Paradise had been blown away by Su Xiao.

Thinking of these, Su Xiao's goal began to become clear. He looked at the fire domain ahead. Because the remains of the Dawn Paradise had been shattered, the battle ended, and the Void Tree had begun to intervene in the situation within the fire domain.

Or rather, if it weren't for the intervention of the Void Tree, the power of this blow just now, and the subsequent chain reaction, would not be the "Ancient Capital" turning into a magma lake, but the entire continent splitting into two, with the Southern Continent and the Northern Continent beginning to become independent.

The temperature in the fire domain cooled rapidly. Su Xiao stepped into the fire domain with the Sun Ring fused in his chest. The temperature and various terrifying toxic gases here had been cleared by ninety-nine percent, which made Su Xiao feel no other discomfort except for the heat.

The Death Domain had disappeared. The S-002 Death Holy Grail, once called indestructible, had just been blown into a gaseous state. Facts proved that there was nothing that was absolutely impossible to destroy; it was just that the power of the explosive was not enough.

Su Xiao entered the fire domain for two purposes: to pick up chests and to determine whether the remains of the Dawn Paradise had been completely blown away. After confirming these, he would rush to the Jibei Black Forest to fight the Gray Gentleman to the death.

At the same time, Arcane Eternal Star.

A majestic elemental superconducting tower stood in the center of the building complex. This was the highest elemental superconducting tower of the Arcane Eternal Star.

On the top floor of this elemental superconducting tower, in the room, several high-level officials of the Arcane Eternal Star were silent, including the Supreme Person at the head.

The elemental fluctuations near the Supreme Person were too strong, making it impossible to see his appearance and clothing, and even impossible to judge his gender.

In front of several people was a screen made of magic energy. The scene on it was fixed on the Apollo explosion, forming the shape of the "Sun Holy Sword."

"You all estimate, if... that thing exploded on the Arcane Eternal Star, what would be the result."

An old woman with a serious expression spoke. Hearing this, the Frost King and Serphilia and others on the side didn't speak.

What these people saw was a picture transmitted from the Tree-Born World with a delay of several minutes. Right now, the Arcane Eternal Star was also one of the participants in the Tree-Born World: Killing Competition, and it was a very normal thing to be able to understand the situation in the Tree-Born World through the Crow Woman.

The Frost King, Serphilia, and others looked at the "Sun Holy Sword" paused on the screen. The Frost King was worried, and Serphilia's eyelids were lowered.

If they were hostile to Su Xiao before, now they had become a threatening hostility. The Frost King, Serphilia, and others didn't know if Su Xiao could replicate that kind of "Sun Holy Sword." If he replicated it and threw one at the Arcane Eternal Star...

Thinking of this, the corners of Serphilia's eyes twitched. She had always been unable to figure out how the enemy, who could clearly be strangled to death with one hand before, had grown to such a degree in not a long time.

More importantly, this year's "Arcane Festival" was about to be held. If the Arcane Eternal Star suffered such an attack on the day of the festival, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Obviously, the "Sun Holy Sword" Su Xiao created this time caused his hostility level on the Arcane Eternal Star to soar.

"Serphilia, how is your investigation into that pharmacist?"

The Frost King deliberately changed the subject. Right now, they indeed didn't have a very good way to deal with Su Xiao. Even if the spellcaster faction had heaven-reaching abilities in the Void, if Su Xiao didn't come, they had no way.

In the Frost King's view, the "Sun Holy Sword" seen just now was indeed terrifying, but the Arcane Eternal Star had multiple defensive measures. Everyone present saw that such terrifying explosives had many drawbacks, a very long detonation time, and the exaggerated sense of threat that could be perceived across the screen after detonation.

Moreover, their grievances with Su Xiao were not a matter of one or two days. Right now, even the Supreme Person didn't give a direct order, so there must be some consideration.

"Still in the contact stage. You should know about those people under White Bull."

Serphilia felt a headache while speaking. Some time ago, the forces under White Bull involved themselves in the potion sales business in an unreasonable way, which led to the further intensification of the conflict between White Bull's forces and the Feather race.

At first, the Arcane Eternal Star didn't care about this. They had long-term cooperation with the Alchemy Master, Tree Sage. But later, a potion very suitable for spellcasters to drink spread, and the high-level officials of the Arcane Eternal Star began to pay attention to it.

When they took the sample potion to find the Tree Sage, although the Tree Sage pretended to be calm, the "Holy crap! How was this potion formulated?" look in his eyes let the high-level officials of the Arcane Eternal Star know that this might be hitting the jackpot this time.

Compared to the finished potion, the high-level officials of the Arcane Eternal Star cared more about the pharmacist who formulated this potion. If they could invite this pharmacist over and worship them, they wouldn't have to worry about such potions in the future.

The person responsible for this matter was Mage Sage Serphilia. She had been worrying a lot recently. That pharmacist was obviously cooperating with White Bull.

Who is White Bull? This is the emperor of the dark world of the Void, specializing in various gray industries or illegal activities. Although the forces are weaker than the Arcane Eternal Star, White Bull's subordinates are all desperadoes. No one is willing to bleed with these desperadoes; it's not worth it.

Right now, Serphilia was facing this situation. Those subordinates of White Bull were polite when they saw her. Being polite was correct, but the efficiency of doing things was extremely low, and they were vague about the news of that pharmacist, only revealing the representative title "Holy Flame."

Thinking of this, Serphilia raised her hand to rub her eyebrows lightly. The Frost King on the side saw this, frowned, and said:

"Serphilia, you are going to invite the pharmacist this time, don't put on a dead face."

Hearing this, Serphilia's face turned black. She and the Frost King had always been at odds. Without the Supreme Person suppressing them from above, she and the Frost King would have fallen out long ago.

"How to invite the pharmacist, I know better than you."

"You have to smile when the time comes. Look, besides being old, you are still quite attractive."

The Frost King said with a smile, typically watching the fun without fearing it was too big.

"You..."

Serphilia stared at the Frost King, then turned her gaze to the Supreme Person, meaning that if the other party didn't let the Frost King restrain himself, she would make a move now to let the other party know what kind of melee ability the Li element would derive.

Noticing Serphilia's gaze, the Supreme Person, whose surroundings were slowly twisting due to elemental fluctuations, nodded, meaning to let Serphilia be polite when inviting the pharmacist, don't keep a long face. If she could invite that pharmacist, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the Arcane Eternal Star was like a tiger adding wings.

Seeing the Supreme Person agree with the Frost King's opinion, Serphilia sighed and decided to practice when she got home. She had forgotten what a smile looked like. In order to welcome that pharmacist, Serphilia believed that besides the various treasures taken out for wooing, this extra effort was completely acceptable.

After careful consideration, Serphilia decided that it would be best to invite that pharmacist to the Arcane Eternal Star a few days before the "Arcane Festival," let that pharmacist stay for a few days, and then just in time for the "Arcane Festival."

The "Arcane Festival" could undoubtedly reflect the strength, financial resources, influence, and cohesion of the Arcane Eternal Star to the greatest extent. Throwing an olive branch to that pharmacist on the day of the festival was simply perfect.

Thinking of this, Serphilia, wearing a gold-white magic robe and a hood, revealing only the lower half of her face, had a smile on her face, coming for this advance rehearsal.

I don't know if Serphilia knew that the pharmacist she was going to welcome was Su Xiao, would she be so angry that she would leave this beautiful world on the spot? As the saying goes, things are unpredictable.

Tree-Born World, Ancient Capital Ruins, Current Magma Lake Area.

Su Xiao stood in the central zone of the magma lake. The rock layer under his feet was about 10 centimeters thick and had been roasted to a glowing red like a soldering iron. Further down was magma.

Click click click~

A crystal layer was constructed on Su Xiao's right arm. His hand reached into the magma and fished out a bone-like square box. This was the chest left behind by Pig Brother. As for Faceless Man's chest, it had already been found just now.

Su Xiao looked at the bone box in his hand, mourned for Pig Brother for 0.5 seconds, then put it away. Pig Brother was indeed strong, and the chest-type items produced were all so exquisite and valuable.

Arriving at the location where the remains of the Dawn Paradise were just located, a large piece of gray-white residue floated on the magma. Su Xiao activated the temporarily obtained scanning authorization, scanned it several times, confirmed that there was no abnormality, and turned to walk out of the fire domain.

Out of the fire domain, Su Xiao found that except for Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang and Baja, the other Qiyuezhe who were watching the show had all left. The magma lake completely separated the Northern Continent from the Southern Continent. Right now, the Qiyuezhe were all located in the "Mushroom Village," "Bay City," and "Great Ruins" area of the Southern Continent.

Precisely because of this, Su Xiao suspected that the Gray Gentleman had gone to the Black Forest of the Northern Continent. After Anderson began to preach the Sun Faith before, the efficiency of armed preaching was not generally fast. Now the Mushroom Tribe and the Ghost race, plus a dozen other ethnic groups, were all praising the sun in the Northern Continent.

I don't know where the problem was. Perhaps because the Tree-Born World had been in danger for a long time, these intelligent races that believed in the sun had become united, extreme, and xenophobic. Those who didn't believe in the sun were heretics in their eyes and must be captured and reformed.

It was no wonder they were like this. These races had been struggling on the line of life and death for a long time, and now that they finally had a chance to live stably, they would naturally be fanatical.

Through the World Contact Platform, many participants had described their experiences of being caught by sun lunatics. They didn't beat or scold, but they were fed and watered every day, but they were endlessly nagging and persuading, and they didn't let them sleep. Only when they praised the sun could they be considered one of their own.

Precisely because of this, Su Xiao didn't contact those sun believers. He didn't think that it was a good thing for him, who possessed the Sun Ring, to meet those fanatical believers.

First of all, he didn't have Sun power in his body. A person who didn't have Sun power in his body actually possessed the Sun Ring. Those sun lunatics might not know what they would do.

Walking out of the fire domain, Su Xiao pressed one hand on his chest and stripped the Sun Ring from his body. The moment the Sun Ring left his body, the fire patterns on his body all faded, and he returned to his previous appearance.

Su Xiao exhaled a hot breath and sensed the situation in his body. There was residual Faith Power: Sun in his organs, but it was not a big problem. After returning to the Reincarnation Paradise alive, he could pay soul coins to clear it.

Su Xiao took out the ancient idol and activated it. The surrounding world turned into a warm-toned thick fog. When the thick fog dissipated, the temperature turned cold, the surrounding light was dim, the environment was dark, and the Black Forest had arrived.

A cold wind blew. Su Xiao put on his original attire and looked at the Initial Tree ahead. This giant tree had turned into charcoal, and a large piece of charcoal floated in mid-air, exerting its final function.

Where the Initial Tree was originally located, a hole over ten meters wide led downward. This was originally a large tree hole, which had been destroyed at this time.

Su Xiao jumped down, used Baja to slow down a few times, successfully reached the bottom of the large tree hole, and walked into the corridor ahead.

After passing the corridor, Su Xiao stopped in front of the Queen's bedroom. There was an aura of a living creature in the bedroom, which made him put his hand on the hilt of his sword before stepping into the bedroom.

There was no other change in the bedroom, only a little old man sitting against the wall. His body was withered, his arms were like withered tree branches, and blood dripped along his goat beard.

Sensing someone coming, the goat-bearded old man raised his head slightly and said with the weakness of a dying person: "You Hunters, your noses are really sharp, worthy of being professional hunters."

The goat-bearded old man laughed slightly nervously. There was a hole in his chest, the heart inside was missing, and golden blood flowed from the wound.

This old man was a rule-breaker named Bogos. Su Xiao had almost fallen into his hands before. This old guy could boost other people's fortune from a super long distance. As the saying goes, when water is full, it overflows. After being boosted by Bogos to a certain extent, fortune would wither, and then extreme bad luck would come.

Bogos suffered a Waterloo at Su Xiao's place. He launched a fierce boost to Su Xiao's fortune. When he wanted to boost Su Xiao's fortune to "water full and overflow" until his eyeballs were about to pop, he found that something was wrong.

To make a simple analogy, other people's fortune capacity is a water cup, then Su Xiao's fortune capacity is a water bucket. This is something that must be accepted to become a Law-Breaker. Even the Goddess of Luck has no way to deal with the Law-Breaker's fortune. Because of this, the Goddess of Luck was beaten.

For others, 10 milliliters of fortune can fill the water cup to the luck of scale 1, but this 10 milliliters of fortune poured into Su Xiao's water bucket can't even cover the bottom, far from the luck of scale 1.

This is the problem with Law-Breakers. The upper limit is high, and the lower limit is also high. Otherwise, how could they collect resources with the "Law-Breaker Formula"? They are all old unlucky ghosts.

What Bogos did before, which was boosting Su Xiao's fortune, I have to say, this old guy is quite strong, boosting Su Xiao's fortune to the level of half a bucket of water, but at the same time, our Mr. Bogos was almost exhausted.

At this time, the dying Bogos finally saw Su Xiao, the main person. He looked at Su Xiao with a slightly respectful and incomprehensible gaze and said earnestly: "You, you are really an unlucky ghost."

"..."

Su Xiao's thumb brushed over the end of the hilt. Just as he was about to draw his sword, Bogos, who was paralyzed against the wall, said:

"That's right, the Gray Gentleman is in the Dark Domain. It's really surprising. His plan actually failed. In the end, he chose to face the abyss. Even though he knew how terrifying the abyss was, he still faced the abyss."

Bogos laughed dryly, then said no more.

Su Xiao frowned. This person wasted 30 seconds of his time. He originally thought that the other party would reveal some information about the Gray Gentleman when he was about to die, but it turned out to be nonsense.

A crystal thorn was constructed in Su Xiao's hand. He threw it casually, nailing Bogos's head to the wall. Kill merit +1.

If Su Xiao didn't guess wrong, this person was deliberately left here by the Gray Gentleman to die, using him as a temporary eye. This old man's heart was taken away, and golden blood flowed from the wound on his chest. Linking to the fact that the other party was of the luck system, that is to say, the Gray Gentleman who obtained that heart should have obtained a means to improve fortune in a short time.

In front of the Queen's bed, the steps leading to the basement had already been revealed. Losing the shroud of black fog meant that the abyss power in the "Dark Domain" had been absorbed in large quantities.

Although absorbing abyss power was not a good strategy, as a backup plan after the main plan failed, it was undoubtedly excellent. It was about to fail, and paying a certain price to obtain power was completely acceptable. If it were Su Xiao, he would do the same.

Furthermore, the Demon race had been harmed by the Abyss Jar for so many years, and they still existed. As long as they didn't absorb abyss power in a way of seeking death, this power was a good choice.

If Su Xiao didn't analyze wrong, one of the Gray Gentleman's core abilities was that the other party had two bodies. Right now, one of the other party's bodies was destroyed, and if the other body died again, he would have to face the arrival of death.

If not necessary, the Gray Gentleman would not control both bodies to enter the Tree-Born World, but this time he had to do so.

Su Xiao walked down the steps in the bedroom into the "Dark Domain." Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang and Baja beside him, one merged into the environment, the other entered the different space, both ready for battle.

The changes in the Dark Domain were great. Dawn Town had completely disappeared, leaving only the gray-white rock layer on the ground.

Various rusted weapons were inserted on the surrounding ground. Su Xiao walked along the rock road on the ground. When he reached the end, there were rough steps going up.

Su Xiao walked up step by step. After passing through a wall of black fog, the front suddenly opened up, returning to the outside world, or rather, this was the other side of the innermost fog wall of the Black Forest, an area that was originally sealed.

The sky was covered with dark clouds, and muffled thunder roared.

Su Xiao stood on a rock platform a hundred meters wide and of unknown length. On both sides was calm water. The surrounding large area of water didn't even have a ripple.

The rock platform, a hundred meters wide and spanning the entire water area, was very flat. This magnificent building was built by the Yada people in ancient times.

Su Xiao looked forward. Several hundred meters ahead, a figure seemed to stand between the water and the sky. The wind rose, and a large ripple rippled on the water surface. This scene was like old friends meeting, but in the next moment, this scene was broken.

Crack!

Black lightning streaked across the sky. The figure standing several hundred meters ahead was the Gray Gentleman. He looked at Su Xiao with a smile, not angry at all because his plan was blocked. His eyes became pitch black, his pupils turned dark gold, and combined with his back-combed hairstyle and the monocle worn in front of his right eye, he gave people a unique charm.

"You've come."

The Gray Gentleman spoke in a calm tone. As his voice fell, the ripples on the surrounding water surface suddenly stopped. The originally clear water surface turned pitch black in an instant, and dozens of figures slowly rose from the black water. These were all the Gray Gentleman's puppets.

Zing~

Su Xiao drew the long sword at his waist. He could sense that the Gray Gentleman still retained a portion of the power he obtained in the Dawn Paradise, plus the depth and darkness of the abyss power.

The thunder in the sky stopped at some point, the dark clouds dispersed a bit, and a half-meter-wide sunlight shone down, illuminating the black water and stone platform between Su Xiao and the Gray Gentleman, as if separating the two sides.

A death battle was about to begin. ===== CHAPTER 3472 =====
