Abundant Martial Arts Virtue

Festos did not have to wait long.

The celestial beauty gently waved her hand, and beams of light descended from the sky.

Everyone looked up.

Countless beams of light fell onto the empty square, manifesting into golden leaves.

These golden leaves began to assemble, weaving into magnificent flying boats, thirty-six in total.

In front of each follower, a flying boat emitting golden light came to a halt.

As for Festos—

The sky resounded with celestial music.

A phoenix with a long tail feather radiating five-colored divine light descended and stopped before him.

"Only the most honored guests may ride this Divine Beast."

The woman smiled and said.

Festos shook his head and said, "No need, we can fly there ourselves."

Hearing this, the faces of the maids showed disdain.

Even the woman overseeing everything gave a wry smile and said:

"Sir, this is the hospitality of our master, do you think these chariots are beneath you?"

She gently clapped her hands.

The golden flying boats and the phoenix soared into the sky, quickly vanishing.

Following that.

Eight women in luxurious robes descended from the sky, carrying an extremely beautiful sedan chair, and knelt before Festos.

The woman in splendid attire softly pleaded:

"It's okay for others to fly beside the sedan, but you are the honored guest, please allow our master to extend his hospitality."

Festos glanced at the sedan chair.

—The sedan was cast entirely in gold, without any runes or power fluctuations, adorned only with various rare and miraculous items.

The eight women carrying the sedan were bare of accessories, without earrings, rings, or pendants.

Very safe.

Moreover, all the servants would accompany the sedan in flight.

If he couldn't even dare this, how could he talk about communicating with the undead of the Death World?

"Alright, thank you for your master's kindness."

Festos gently leapt and sat in the sedan chair.

The eight women rose and lifted the sedan into the sky, drifting towards the distant palace.

Other followers surrounded the sedan, and the woman also followed closely, forming a grand procession.

Countless phoenixes also accompanied the flight.

Two rows of maids paved the way ahead, holding various musical instruments, playing and singing.

The sedan flew steadily and comfortably.

Festos squinted his eyes, a thought surfacing in his mind—

Such an indescribable display!

Soon he would need to have a good talk with that Lord of the Undead surnamed You.

As he contemplated, the sedan had already flown into the majestic palace.

"Do we need to stop?"

Festos asked the woman.

"No need, go directly to my master," the woman laughed.

Festos nodded, no longer inquiring.

The sedan continued flying soundlessly.

At a certain moment.

Festos suddenly noticed the sedan had arrived at a room emitting brilliant golden light.

The maids had all vanished.

The servants beside him had all disappeared.

As for the woman, she hovered in mid-air, nodding and smiling at him:

"Congratulations, congratulations."

"Congratulations for what?" Festos asked.

Before the woman could speak, Festos only felt his consciousness beginning to blur.

Damn!

He's fallen into a trap!

He wanted to act, but found his whole body limp, without any strength to move.

The woman regarded him expressionlessly.

The next instant.

The woman also vanished.

Festos felt an unprecedented crisis emerge in his heart, his consciousness growing increasingly fuzzy, even almost forgetting everything.

In great alarm, he seized his last thought and shouted fiercely:

"Life Extension Holy Chapter!"

A powerful force suddenly enveloped him, pulling him back with all its might—

Festos instantly transformed into a retreating silhouette, about to leave the palace.

This force was so strong, it pierced through the endless Void, rendering any world unable to continue trapping Festos.

In the last instant.

He abruptly regained clarity and looked back.

Only to see countless Evil Ghosts concealed within the Void, all fiercely staring at him, emitting resentful howls.

Further away, the golden palace also shed its guise.

—It turned out to be a poultry farm.

A meat poultry farm.

Festos saw the golden light transformed into withered yellow straw.

Several hens perched on the straw, clucking, laying one egg after another.

Eggs emerged from their bodies, rolling onto the straw heap.

Watching these eggs, Festos felt an inexplicable familiarity arising within him.

But... why?

While Festos puzzled, suddenly, lines of glowing words appeared in the Void:

"You lost follower Assad;"

"You lost follower Hei Gengsi;"

"You lost follower Kerry;"

"..."

Festos only felt a chill climbing up his spine.

His servants had already been reborn as the offspring of chickens!

Suddenly.

As an egg fell, it directly cracked open.

The glowing characters of Jiuyao jumped out at once:

"That is you."

"Congratulations!"

"You successfully escaped this time! You've freed yourself from this spell!"

The pull on Festos became more intense.

He struggled instinctively, wanting to see the end.

He saw those eggs picked up by a large hand, taken directly to the kitchen, cracked one by one, and thrown into the oil pan.

Sizzle—

The eggs made a continuous sound in the oil pan.

Soul after soul suddenly jumped up from the egg liquid into the air, unleashing a piercing scream.

These servants had already lost their memories, knew nothing, and couldn't even struggle, only enduring the brutal torture of being fried in hot oil.

However, after the souls had been tormented——

The Void appeared as a gigantic dark vortex, sucking them all in.

"No..."

Festos only glanced at that dark vortex, his entire body overwhelmed with an unrelenting fear.

He nearly screamed:

"Take me away, quickly!!!"

The pull suddenly became stronger, dragging him forcefully, and instantly passing through countless Void spaces, directly taking him back to a subterranean tunnel somewhere in the Pangu World.

Thud.

Festos landed on the ground, gasping heavily, his face pale, drenched in sweat.

He looked down at his hands.

His hands were trembling.

They couldn't stop trembling.

Was he scared?

Wait——

What exactly happened?

He looked vacantly towards the Void, and softly said: "Did you say I was affected by a spell just now?"

A few lines of glowing small text appeared:

"Yes, it's a High-level Death Surge spell from your opponent."

"Awakening the power of the Death Side is nearly impossible, as it inherently implies the surge of the Law of Life and Law of Death, which is the most fundamental, greatest surge."

"This sequence is reevaluating your opponent."

...

Let time rewind a little.

Elsewhere.

Wu Xiaode detached from the Death World, returning to the bridge.

Augustine, Sarina, and others were no longer visible on the bridge.

"Damn it, I need to hurry."

He casually drew a card from the Void.

At the same time, the surrounding Lizard Men disappeared completely.

Wu Xiaode placed the Lizard Man follower card back into the Book of the Dead, sprinting with all his might towards the other side of the bridge.

He reached the end of the bridge at the fastest possible speed.

——There were hundreds of tunnels there, densely packed, almost dizzying to look at.

Wait a second.

Which way did Augustine and the others go?

Augustine's voice sounded from the Book of the Dead:

"Count from the bottom left corner to the second secret passage, there is a door inside."

"Once inside, recite the spell:"

"Pangu Chapter—I come here to continue its destiny!"

Wu Xiaode slightly nodded, and dashed towards that tunnel.

He rushed all the way to the end of the tunnel, continuously chanting those spell words.

As he chanted, a light door indeed appeared on the wall at the end of the tunnel.

"It's done!"

Wu Xiaode was about to step into the light door when he noticed the Book of the Dead silently opening.

The pages automatically turned to the Wall of Sighs.

Lines of small bronze text emerged:

"'Evil Spirit Evil Magic·Fetus Concealed Confusion' appeared for the first time, wreaking havoc, absorbing many souls, accelerating the evolution of your second ability."

"Wall of Sighs has completed its evolution."

"The current Wall of Sighs transformed into 'Endless Malice Magic Wall'."

Wu Xiaode had no time to look closely; he rushed into the light door first.

Light unfolded before him endlessly.

This gave him an unprecedented illusion——

He seemed to have become as light as a feather, gently flying in the boundless Void.

One-dimensional.

Two-dimensional.

Until it became three-dimensional.

Time lines unfolded like surfaces in three-dimensional space, outlining countless lines, turning everything into layered, complex, and deep structures of time and space, where each "world" constructed by time and space was completely parallel.

This awe-inspiring magnificent world of truth made Wu Xiaode fall speechless.

Wrong.

All wrong.

Augustine, you all fail to realize that this is actually the "vanished" Pangu World.

It was hidden here by an incomprehensible method.

He understood more, knowing Augustine and the others didn't get the card.

Sarina didn't get it either.

Indeed.

They saw the card, even took it down from the screen.

But they didn't enter these "vanished" time-spaces.

With the realization in Wu Xiaode's heart, lines of small bronze texts appeared before his eyes:

"Checking identity."

"Your identity has been verified in the celestial records, shown as:"

"Ning Shen Temple Master of Kunlun Mountain Immortal Peach Orchard."

"You are about to be drawn into the corresponding 'vanished' history to perform your divine position."

Wu Xiaode's eyes twitched slightly.

Augustine and Sarina don't possess an identity in the Pangu World.

Without an identity, they aren't recognized by this "vanished" time-space.

So they lost that card.

But——

I can go inside!
