Chapter 634: Familiar Era (2)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
According to Xiao Shi’s previous analysis, if one checkpoint represented an era, there should be five checkpoints here before reaching the Holy Land. But now, there was a sudden change.
Chu Tong instantly realized that this checkpoint was very likely to be the last checkpoint. Because there were two different eras here! Two different exclusive items also appeared. Unfortunately, these two exclusive items were immediately enveloped by a barrier. It could not be obtained.
However, it also made Chu Tong realize that Xiao Shi and the others had very likely already dealt with the Sage Tree, which was why the sky had changed.
“Looks like I’ve underestimated them. If that’s the case, then 1’11 wait here for them to clear the level.” Chu Tong decided to stay here. After Xiao Shi and the others cleared the level, he could easily obtain the many exclusive items here.
To him, before going to the Holy Land, the most important thing was to conserve their strength.
Xiao Shi stared blankly at the silver sickle-shaped crescent moon that appeared in the sky. The moonlight from the crescent moon carried a coldness. It made everyone’s bodies and souls feel a chill.
However, when this coldness affected Xiao Shi’s body and soul, he did not feel uncomfortable like the others. Instead, he felt a strong sense of familiarity. This was not the first time he had seen this silver crescent moon in the night sky.
Back in the Illusionary World, he had already clearly seen an identical silver sickle-shaped crescent moon. This made him realize instantly. What he was currently in was the Youyue Era!!
In fact, when he saw the stars in the sky earlier, Xiao Shi had some guesses. After all, he had seen the sun, moon, and stars from three different eras in that ancient ruin. At that time, he chose the Moon Era. Hence, he appeared in the illusory world of the Youyue Empire.
Xiao Shi had suspected it before. The stars in this checkpoint might be the era of stars he had seen back then. But because he had not entered the era of stars at that time and did not know enough, he could not be sure. However, the silver sickle-shaped crescent moon that appeared in the sky made him affirm this checkpoint. It directly changed from the era of stars to the era of Youyue!
“If that’s the case, it’s very likely that there’s a connection between the Star Era and the Youyue Era. And the previous Sage Tree must have originated from the Youyue Era. However, for some reason, it appeared in the Star Era and was suppressed by the Star Era. However, while it was suppressed, it also suppressed the array seal that opened the Youyue Era. From the looks of it, this hurdle is already the last hurdle because this hurdle contains two different eras!”
Xiao Shi’s thoughts flickered as the era changed. A black figure suddenly flew out from the array seal. It turned into a humanoid creature covered in black scales. Even its face was covered in many black scales. It had a strong and tall body that was nearly three meters tall. Under the moonlight, its black scales reflected a cold luster.
Under the scales on its face, a pair of pitch-black and deep red vertical pupils appeared. There was a black scaled tail on his back that dragged to the ground. The most eye-catching thing was the crescent mark on his glabella.
Xiao Shi was no stranger to it. He knew that every person under the Youyue Era had such a crescent moon mark. This was their power system. However, what surprised Xiao Shi and made his expression solemn was that he realized that this humanoid creature was not an ordinary martial artist from the Youyue Era.
Instead, it was an Evil! In the past, there was a Evil Organization in the Youyue Empire. The organization mainly conducted research on evil corruption and possessed experts. For this reason, they created many Evils.
As a result, a list of the Ten Evils appeared. On the Ten Evils Rankings were ten extremely powerful and extraordinary Evils.
Xiao Shi still remembered that Four Evils had unfortunately been lost in a battle with some mighty figures. Their whereabouts were still unknown. What he had obtained back then was the corpse of the Evil ranked third on the Ten Evils! And what appeared in front of them was also an Evil. Moreover, it was an Evil who had reached the Sage realm.
The moment this Evil appeared, a shocking fluctuation that was even larger and more terrifying than the previous Sage Tree immediately erupted from this Evil. It directly set off a storm in the surroundings, causing all the trees in the surroundings to explode and collapse.
Not only that, even an incomparably huge cloud vortex appeared above the head of the Evil. Dense black lightning intertwined and swam in the entire vortex. Any bolt of lightning inside contained a terrifying power that could easily kill a Martial Demon Realm expert.
This terrifying scene made everyone present feel an indescribable pressure. Deep despair and fear rose in their hearts.
This Evil was even stronger than the Sage Tree from before!
Previously, the Sage Tree was in a suppressed state. Not only was it unable to move, but many of its abilities were also greatly restricted. However, the Evil under the era of Youyue was not suppressed at all. He maintained his peak state.
In front of such a Sage, Martial Demon Realm cultivators like them were like ants. Furthermore, they had all suffered heavy injuries from the explosion of the Sage Tree. The Iron-Refined Corpses had been completely destroyed, and their exclusive items had all been exhausted when dealing with the Sage Tree.
They did not have any strength to resist. There was only death in front of them.
Soon, the Evil’s scarlet vertical pupils locked onto one of the Martial Demon Realm cultivators. A seething killing intent and brutality surged in his eyes. After all, these Evils were mainly about killing. It contained a strong killing intent and bloodlust.
Boom!!
His body moved, the entire ground exploded into a huge pit. It was as if he had teleported. In less than a second, he appeared in front of the Martial Demon Realm. He raised his foot. He was about to step down.
With the terrifying power of his kick, once it landed, not only would the Martial Demon Realm cultivator in front of him die, but everyone in the vicinity would die instantly!
However, just as he raised his foot and was about to land, there was a pause in midair. He looked at Xiao Shi, who was not far away. He discovered that there was also a moon mark between Xiao Shi’s eyebrows.
The Moon Seal emitted a familiar aura. It was precisely because of the existence of this aura that its raised foot did not land.
Swoosh!
The Evil flashed. He gave up on stomping. He instantly appeared in front of Xiao Shi. His face was almost touching Xiao Shi’s. Its scarlet pupils stared at the moon mark on Xiao Shi’s glabella, as if it wanted to try its best to see what was familiar in the moon mark.
At such a close distance, Xiao Shi could clearly sense the terrifying aura emitted by the Evil. This pressure came from a Sage. It made all the bones in his body crack. His skin cracked. His entire body was like a piece of porcelain that was stuck together. His entire body was covered in cracks, as if he would shatter on the spot if he touched it.
Moreover, there was still a lot of blood oozing out from these cracks, gathering into a stream of blood under Xiao Shi. Under the powerful pressure of this Sage, even with Xiao Shi’s powerful body, he could not last long.
However, there was no fear in his bloodshot eyes. He stared intently at the Evil. Gradually, the Evil’s scarlet eyes suddenly constricted violently as he stared at Xiao Shi’s glabella! It was as if it had seen something that terrified it. He was so frightened that he retreated violently..
