Shadow Hack - Chapter 722
Chapter 722: Four Seals
Right then, Li Yunmu didn’t care whether someone was dangerous or not. He had to obtain the Millenium Divine Staff to save Yuan Biyao!
“I am unable to take care of so many things. My first priority is saving Yuan Biyao.”
When the system saw Li Yunmu being so resolute, it didn’t say anything more to him. Although it knew better, its every action was according to the host’s choice unless he didn’t want to return to the Origin World again.
The problem was that its resurrection was too far away. The system thus took a deep breath and said, [I hope you are successful.]
Li Yunmu nodded and said, “Why did they use card seals for the four way enchantment seal?”
[I’ve heard of the Dark Master of Two Poles of Morning and Evening. His strength is extremely formidable, even surpassing that of master gods. The gods of Two Poles of Morning and Evening had jointly sealed him one day. After that, they split his body into five parts and sealed each card in a different location.]
Li Yunmu didn’t know whether what he was going to do was right or wrong, but he only had a single thought in his heart at that moment, and it was to rescue Yuan Biyao regardless of the cost.
He hurriedly advanced in the direction the Dark Master had told him. There was a pillar of light on the border, and it was surrounded by an enchantment.
“It should be here! The Dark Master’s seal should be here.”
There was a golden box in the enchantment, and it appearance was very similar to one of the thousand year artifacts, which he had seen previously.
The seal of the Dark Master was probably inside it, and Li Yunmu’s heart began to beat with ecstasy. It was tantamount to getting one step closer to rescuing Yuan Biyao.
But what made him despair the next moment was that he was unable to enter the enchantment!
“Damn it! This enchantment!”
Li Yunmu tried using all sorts of methods to break the enchantment open, but it didn’t move a single jot.
Although the guardian the Dark Master had warned him about didn’t appear, the enchantment itself was already enough to give him a headache.
“You can’t fool me anymore! This isn’t some Dark Master’s seal, but rather one of the five seals, the metal seal, right?” Li Yunmu said gloomily.
The system didn’t say anything, because if the seal was opened, it could descend to the Origin World once more. At that time, the entire world would be turned upside down.
But how could any of the five seals be easy to destroy?
In truth, the system was very clear in its heart that even if the five seals were destroyed, it would only fulfill the condition to awaken the five origin gods. As for when it could return itself, it was completely dependant on the host.
“You don’t need to say anything. If you choose to remain silent, it is equivalent to approving tacitly! I don’t know who installed this seal on you, but I have tried many methods which failed so you cannot blame me. This is already my limit.”
When Li Yunmu turned around to leave, he suddenly felt the golden enchantment surrounding the pillar of light suddenly explode.
The golden box glistened brightly right where it had been, but it was no longer protected.
Li Yunmu couldn’t help but curiously ask, “What happened here? Wasn’t this enchantment not opening? How did it open suddenly?”
System indifferently said:
[You broke the enchantment of the Dark Master, not me. It’s just that it was comparably slow in reacting.]
“How can this be?”
Li Yunmu almost spat out blood. What sort of broken reason was that? What left him the most speechless was that the seal wasn’t as terrifying as the Dark Master had said.
He told them that every seal was guarded by vicious beasts, yet Li Yunmu had opened the enchantment and there was no one crazily attacking him.
Li Yunmu walked to the golden box and opened it. As expected there was a card shining brightly inside.
Li Yunmu took a deep breath. “That should be it. But then what exactly is the metal seal of Two Poles of Morning and Evening?”
[It’s inside the pyramid, but you need the Millenium Divine Staff to open it. Every seal can be opened by the treasure I have left behind. That’s why I didn’t say anything, but every seal’s guardian isn’t like these trash guardians of Dark Master’s seal.]
Right when the system finished speaking, a dark falcon descended from the sky. Its flying speed was extremely fast, and instantly attacked Li Yunmu.
He dodged, and a bow appeared in his hand. He aimed it at the falcon in the sky and shouted loudly, “Little bastard! Today is the day you die!”
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Three arrows rushed out like one and struck the falcon soaring in the sky. It fell to the ground and lost consciousness.
Li Yunmu curled his lips and said, “It really is as you said, these guardians of the seals are truly garbage. Your five seals, they should be more challenging, right?”
Otherwise, how could the War God of Ancient Lands XingTian not be able to defeat the divine beast protecting it?
[That is only natural. How could a minor character like the Dark Master be compared to my noble self?] the system said.
With the first card in hand, Li Yunmu advanced toward the other three seals. He didn’t find any difficulty in obtaining them and collected all four cards with ease.
They had the hands and legs of the Dark Master drawn on them. If they were joined together with eyes in the pyramid, he would again reappear in the human world.
The system actually hoped that Li Yunmu would eliminate the seal of Dark Master because then he would be able to obtain the Millenium Divine Staff.
The five seals could be opened with the Millenium Divine Staff. However, apart from the fire seal of Ancient Lands, there were no traces of the others.
Besides the people of Ancient Lands, no one else seemed to know about his secret.
Li Yunmu then returned to the pyramid and said to the Dark Master, “I have obtained the seals of the four cards, but you must agree to a condition of mine first.”
When Dark Master heard that Li Yunmu had obtained the four seals so quickly, he immediately understood that the youth was quite formidable. He couldn’t help but get excited.
“What condition? If I can do it, I will definitely do it.”
Li Yunmu calmly said:
“Help the gods of Two Poles of Morning and Evening defeat the Dark Demon God!” Li Yunmu said calmly.
Dark Master was silent for a while, then said, “Remove the seal, and I will try! I haven’t moved my body for a long time, so I don’t know whether it can handle a battle or not.”
Li Yunmu sensed that Dark Master was quite cunning. When he asked Li Yunmu to find the seals, he said that it was difficult, but when Li Yunmu asked him to defeat the Dark Demon God, he began to make excuses for himself.
