Chapter 132: Realm Guardian Sphinx

Soon, Ice Sparrow brought Ice Raven to the Medical Department.

"Ice Sparrow Mountain Lord!"

Inside the Medical Department, two Ice Crystal Butterflies were helping treat patients; seeing Ice Sparrow, they greeted it.

"Chirp!" (Hurry and save it!) Seeing Ice Raven's life aura grow ever fainter, Ice Sparrow said anxiously.

One of the Ice Crystal Butterflies, seeing this scene, said with a smile:

"Nu~" (Lord Mountain Lord need not worry, it should be about to awaken.) These past few days, they had seen many creatures exhibit similar symptoms before awakening undead-type transcendence.

Hearing this, Ice Sparrow breathed a sigh of relief.

After a long time, Ice Raven felt the burning sensation on its body gradually fading, and it slowly opened its eyes.

Between its pupils, a cluster of pale white soul fire had actually ignited! Seeing this, Ice Sparrow was stunned for a moment.

After consuming these Undead Mulberries, Ice Raven had actually awakened the power of the undead type.

At the same time, its original ice-type abilities had been retained as well.

One could only say that Ice Raven's bloodline was extremely suited to the undead type.

This was also why it had felt such an intense desire to devour them upon seeing the Undead Mulberries.

"Caw?! Caw!!" (Lord Mountain Lord, am I dead? Why do I feel a bit light and floaty?) Ice Raven felt its entire body light and airy, and could not help asking.

Ice Sparrow channeled the ice-type spiritual power within its body, condensing it into an ice prism and placing it in front of Ice Raven.

"Chirp!" (You've gone bald!) "Caw!?"

Ice Raven was startled and hurriedly checked its reflection in the mirror.

It discovered that its originally magnificent feathers had all vanished entirely, replaced by pale white flames.

In the aesthetics of many humans, this could be said to be insanely cool.

But in the eyes of the vast majority of birds, it was now an out-and-out "baldy"! "Caw!" (It's over, it's over!) This made it feel incomparably dejected—with its current image, how would it ever find a pretty little female crow from now on?

If it had known, it would never have eaten these weird fruits! "But you've also grown stronger."

Ice Sparrow, seeing Ice Raven hanging its head, offered a word of comfort, then asked again: "Chirp?" (Ice Raven, have you awakened any new abilities?)

"Caw!"

Ice Raven, half of whose body had already become undead form, nodded.

The ability Ice Raven awakened was called 【Undead Language Mastery】.

After waking up, besides feeling its body light and floaty, Ice Raven also felt its head swollen.

A lot of unfamiliar knowledge had appeared in its mind—this was the written language unique to the undead race.

Truly—its head swelled with knowledge.

"Chirp!"

Hearing this, a trace of excitement showed in Ice Sparrow's eyes.

Previously, Ice Sparrow had flown in circles around the pyramid phantoms.

It had seen many complex and arcane symbols and characters engraved upon those pyramid phantoms that had yet to descend.

These characters should have recorded important information.

Unfortunately, Ice Sparrow could not understand these characters at all; it guessed that this writing was very likely the language of the undead race.

Now that Ice Raven had awakened the ability of 【Undead Language Mastery】, if it could understand or even decipher them, it would absolutely be a tremendous merit.

It might even earn quite a few contribution points! "Chirp!" (Ice Raven, come with me to look at the pyramid above! See whether the runes on it are the writing of the undead race.) Ice Sparrow said.

"Caw!" (Alright, Lord Mountain Lord!)

————————

【Architecture Lion】 Day 26.

Chen Mo had already entered the territory of former Egypt.

More than half a month ago, the Ice Lion Legion had already conquered it, making it part of the territory of the Ice Lion Kingdom.

Since he was already here, Chen Mo planned to go take a look at the Pyramid Secret Realm; nearly a month had passed since the appearance of the Pyramid Secret Realm's phantom. The time of its official descent should not be far off.

Soon, Chen Mo arrived at the desert where the Pyramid Secret Realm's phantom was located.

Gazing from afar, one towering giant pyramid phantom after another floated suspended in midair, a magnificent sight.

Chen Mo manifested ice crystal wings and flew into midair, taking in all the mountains at a glance.

A total of 99 pyramids would descend from the Pyramid Secret Realm—one super-large Golden Pyramid, 9 large Bronze Pyramids, and 89 Black Iron Pyramids.

The tallest Golden Pyramid exceeded 5000 meters in height, soaring into the clouds; the Bronze Pyramids ranged between 1000-2000 meters in height, and the Black Iron Pyramids were under 500.

All the pyramids appeared to have only four sides, but in reality they had 8 faces.

Each side was actually composed of two inwardly slanting faces.

Each side had a giant stone door, engraved with some kind of bizarre symbols.

Most likely some kind of unknown language.

And beneath the Golden Pyramid, Chen Mo also saw the Pyramid Secret Realm's Realm Guardian.

This was a colossal being hundreds of meters tall, with the body of a lion and the face of a human, bearing a pair of wings, its entire form as if cast in gold.

【Sphinx】

【Rank: Totem】

A powerful existence on the same level as the Sky Curtain Ice Spider!

At this moment, its eyes were tightly shut, yet it radiated incomparably terrifying pressure.

Before such a being, even though Chen Mo had now advanced to King peak, he was still insignificant.

This made Chen Mo's desire to grow stronger intensify by several more degrees.

Although he was now already at the forefront among Blue Planet's extraordinary creatures, he was still far from reaching the pinnacle.

One must not become proud and complacent.

Chen Mo stopped looking at this realm guardian and instead gazed down at the pyramid below.

Soon, Chen Mo spotted the Ice Sparrow's figure among the pyramid structures below.

He flapped his wings and swiftly drew closer to it.

Sensing the violent gale and immensely powerful aura, the Ice Sparrow, who was searching for spirit plants, could not help but turn its head.

Looking at the giant lion hovering before it — with wings on its back, flowing mane, and resembling a creature of myth — the Ice Sparrow was too stunned to speak.

Although it had already learned from other extraordinary beings that the Ice Lion King's appearance changed after advancing to King rank, this change was far too drastic, wasn't it?

"Chirp!" (Good afternoon, Your Majesty the Lion King.) The Ice Sparrow said respectfully.

Chen Mo nodded.

"Are you searching for spirit plants?"

"Yes, yes! Your Majesty, I've already saved up 10,000 contribution points. Can I exchange them with you for an Ice Phoenix Wutong Leaf?"

The Ice Sparrow said eagerly.

It had coveted the Ice Phoenix Wutong Leaf for a long time.

Its hard work during this period had finally allowed it to gather enough 10,000 contribution points.

Among them, the newly discovered death-type spirit plants alone numbered 35 species, which converted to 10,500 corresponding contribution points, along with two newly discovered divine medicines and other death-type extraordinary creatures it had subdued.

All added together, it had reached exactly 20,000 contribution points.

Judging by contribution points alone, among all the extraordinary leaders of the entire Great Snow Mountain, probably not a single one could compare with the Ice Sparrow.

"You may."

Chen Mo nodded.

He then took out an Ice Phoenix Wutong Leaf from his backpack and used spiritual power to suspend it in front of the Ice Sparrow.

And inadvertently, he revealed another two Ice Phoenix Wutong Leaves.
