Chapter 258: Saint Lande's Forbidden Seal Ground!
Thin blood mist swirled around Ta Ke, who sat on a bench in the corridor.
A faint smell of blood lingered lightly in the air.
At this moment!
All the steam ash mist that had settled in the Saint Lande high tower area showed a faint blood-red hue.
Even though the blood clan ecology war had ended over a day ago.
But the traces of this wave of scorched-earth war from the Dark Sun Church's blood clan ecology counterattack still lingered in Saint Lande's steam ecology.
Power from the Netherworld Blood Sea permeated all of Saint Lande's steam ash mist.
Yesterday, at the end of the blood clan ecology war, all of Saint Lande's steam ash mist was like a viscous blood sea.
Fortunately.
Saint Lande, which had long prepared to launch an attack, narrowly managed to block this wave of blood clan ecology offensive from the Dark Sun Church.
The damage was not severe.
It was just that the blood mist looked somewhat frightening.
It needed a period of steam ecology circulation for these blood mists to be digested and dispersed.
But this time, the harm caused by the blood clan ecology was far more than that.
Even though Ta Ke, sitting atop this high tower, had some interference from the Dark Sun ecology.
He could still feel the decaying, withering, declining death aura permeating the depths of Saint Lande's ecology world.
And all of this was caused by the blood clan ecology that had attached itself deep within Saint Lande's ecology and launched this attack.
Ta Ke, sitting in the corridor, was reading today's Saint Lande Steam Daily.
【Great Divine Manifestation Descends!】
【Dark Sun Evil God Church's Deathstruck Counterattack!】
On the two facing pages of the Steam Daily, two huge headlines each occupied half of the space.
【Great Divine Manifestation Descends】
Naturally, it was the Three-Eyed God's gaze upon Ta Ke.
The gaze from the great divine spirit both helped Ta Ke.
and also gave many defenders of Saint Lande a shot of stimulant.
After all!
That was indeed the descent of divine spirit power.
And with the descent of the Three-Eyed God's divine manifestation.
The Three-Eyed God granting Ta Ke the identity of Divine Favored was also officially announced in the newspaper yesterday.
Along with the divine spirit being announced, it also counted as the exclusive honor of the Divine Favored.
These past few days.
The divine spirit displayed great divine manifestation.
The birth of the Divine Favored Ta Ke.
The Dark Sun Church's ecology war.
Many things converged together.
Making Saint Lande especially tumultuous and lively.
The second page of today's newspaper.
It elaborated on a comprehensive simulation of this Dark Sun Evil God Church's blood clan ecology counterattack.
Just as Ta Ke had felt.
The Dark Sun Church might possibly abandon the form of ecological invasion that directly confronts Saint Lande.
Judging by the Dark Sun Church's current actions, this possibility indeed exists.
After all, present-day Saint Lande possesses both the special world power of "Steam·World" and such a meditative wonder as "Old Day·Star".
But regardless of whether the Dark Sun Church retreats, this does not delay Ta Ke's upcoming counterattack and hunt.
After finishing reading the newspaper, Ta Ke gradually gathered his spirit.
Today, Ta Ke, accompanied by Bevis Twain, went to see Bishop Martha Clarke together.
Ta Ke explained his needs.
He needed to go to the Three-Eyed God Church's Forbidden Seal Ground, select a suitable Forbidden Seal for himself, and if suitable, Ta Ke still needed to stay there for a period of time.
The place where Forbidden Seals are stored is no joking matter.
A little carelessness could possibly trigger a Forbidden Seal riot.
Others wanting such treatment is absolutely impossible!
But as Ta Ke, the Divine Favored worthy of the divine spirit's descent, there is no doubt it is possible.
But it requires special approval from the Archbishop and several Holy Temple Bishops.
Bishop Martha Clarke went to handle the procedures.
Meanwhile, Ta Ke and Bevis Twain waited outside.
Not long after.
"Come with me!"
Bishop Martha Clarke's voice rang out.
Bevis Twain and Ta Ke immediately rose and followed.
After passing through several magic teleportation gates.
The surrounding light dimmed.
Ta Ke glanced left and right; this is a wide underground passage, let alone walking, even riding a horse would be fine.
From the walls on both sides, Ta Ke could sense the aura of Saint Land's rocky earth.
Magical wall lamps hang on the passage walls, and under the supply of source‑energy veins, the small clusters of magical flame shine brightly.
The fiery passage stretches forward endlessly, its end invisible to the eye.
Ta Ke's glance revealed that this is a magical corridor.
According to the theory of Transcendent Magic, it should never have an end.
Ta Ke is not even sure whether he could get through it.
"The very entrance path is shrouded by powerful Transcendent magical ritual forces; the guardians of the forbidden sealed object's storage are not ordinary in their strictness."
"This kind of corridor magical ritual is the same as my Great Barrier ritual, both borrowing some great power."
"Using even stronger power to build a defense, a magical ritual serves as the key."
"Even if enemies invade here, they will only become trapped."
Examining the layout of the magical measures here, Ta Ke learned another technique.
Bishop Masha Ke La Ke began to chant the corresponding "Corridor Ritual Witchcraft".
Beside them, Bei Wei Si Tu Wen, from who knows where, produced a black parchment covered with red characters.
"Here, take a good look."
Ta Ke took it and, upon looking, felt his heart skip a beat.
"Nice guy, the hundred ways to die in the forbidden sealed area, right!"
Prohibited matters of the Saint Land Sealed Area.
Rule 1: No matter what sound you hear or question you receive, do not answer.
Rule 2: Some ropes may dangle down from above; avoid them and do not look up.
Rule 3: The floor is uniformly white marble slabs and rock; if red bricks appear, never step on them, and do not ask why red bricks are forbidden.
Rule 4: When you cannot find an exit immediately, try to find a wall and wait quietly for a few minutes.
Rule 5: Strictly prohibited…
……
Examining these rather unreasonable rules.
Ta Ke could probably guess that each prohibition here is likely a blood‑soaked lesson of death.
Even if Ta Ke has a system that can idle through such forbidden ecology.
Nevertheless, Ta Ke clearly still needs to obey the rules within this forbidden sealed zone.
Shortly after Bishop Masha Ke La Ke's ritual concluded.
The passage before them unfolded like a scroll, and a new corridor appeared before everyone.
Inside a dim underground stone hall.
A few Transcendent beings of the Transcendent order.
Or sitting on a sofa reading a newspaper.
Or by the fish tank, observing the fish and water plants in the bathtub.
Or meditating in a corner.
Ta Ke turned his head slightly toward a nearby door shimmering with silvery metal—the Mechanical Magic Sealing Alchemy Gate— which was perhaps five or six meters tall.
And above it wafted an aura of forbidden properties.
Earlier, when entering the dwarf clan's underground sealed treasure with Bei Wei Si, Ta Ke had sensed a similar aura.
Only that.
The forbidden aura now emanating from this Mechanical Magic Sealing Alchemy Gate was several times stronger than that of the dwarf clan's underground treasure.
This is only the gate.
If one were to go inside.
That intense forbidden aura would likely suffocate anyone.
When Ta Ke and the other two opened the entrance.
All the stationed guards here looked on in unison.
Bishop Masha Ke La Ke stepped forward and handed a brown credential letter to the middle‑aged man whose level was above 60.
"Archbishop Li Gen Qiao's own handwritten letter, plus special approvals from five Temple Bishops."
"The divine devotee of the Great Three‑Eyed God, the Defiler Ta Ke, will enter the forbidden sealed area and spend some time there."
Divine devotee Ta Ke?
Hearing that he was a divine devotee, not only the leading middle‑aged man but also the others in the hall turned to look.
Bei Wei Si Tu Wen and his companions obviously knew each other.
So many eyes fell upon Ta Ke.
Divine devotee!
It is said that this time the Great Three‑Eyed God himself descended and confirmed him as a top‑tier genius.
And moreover.
Before this, the "Divine Devotee" had also blasphemed the Dark Sun God as a "Defiler".
He is also an S‑rank Transcendent talent holder.
The past half‑year, the "Divine Devotee" "Defiler" Ta Ke La Mo Er has left far too many legends in Saint Land.
If not for this rather solemn setting, those curious guards would probably climb onto Ta Ke to get a better look.
"No problem!"
The middle‑aged man finished examining Archbishop Regan Jo's letter, then gave a slight nod.
Immediately, he led the Guard squad to commence the door‑opening magical ceremony.
At that moment, standing in the corner, Ta Ke's mouth curved into a faint smile.
Ta Ke has already employed World to sense the aura of the forbidden ecology.
This time, the forbidden seal storage site can indeed be considered the right place.
