Chapter 1203: Submission
Xuanyuan Xia clenched her fists: "Stop sweet-talking me, tell me what is truly happening! If anything happens to Ling Feng, I will never forgive you, and I might even wipe out your entire God race remnants!"
The Crystal Skull said faintly: "Rest assured, Ling Feng is fine! He is merely going through the necessary process of inheriting the Mechanical Core. How vast is the inheritance of our God race's Mechanical Core? Now, he merely needs to withstand some spiritual pressure..."
"However... if he gets disturbed from the outside, Ling Feng might very well be impacted by the inheritance's power and become an idiot!" Seeing Xuanyuan Xia wanting to take action, the Crystal Skull couldn't help but say faintly.
Xuanyuan Xia shot a hateful glance at the Crystal Skull: "You... you are truly calculating! I finally understand now, all of this is actually within your grasp!"
The Crystal Skull chuckled: "You're flattering me, I also wish for our God race's Mechanical Core to find the right inheritor!"
"Even if they're not of the God race?" Xuanyuan Xia's eyes burned with intensity.
The Crystal Skull said faintly: "Though Ling Feng isn't of the God race, he can completely become the son-in-law of our God race. I have high hopes for him!"
Xuanyuan Xia was momentarily speechless, unable to refute the Crystal Skull's powerful reasoning.
As for Ling Feng, who was undergoing the inheritance, he was enduring the agony of a splitting headache and the verge of a mental collapse! An endless stream of information surged into his mind, and if his spiritual power wasn't robust enough, he might long have gone mad, turned into a useless person!
Clenching his teeth desperately, the veins on Ling Feng's forehead bulged, and the Abyssal Horn on his forehead emitted intermittent glows.
At this time, sounds of cracking came from within Ling Feng's body, as if his bones were constantly rubbing against each other.
The previously uncontrollable Power of the Abyss gradually converged under the influence of the Demon's Horn, and his body slowly returned to its original form.
Thus, an hour passed, and only then did Ling Feng feel the spiritual power emanating from the white mist weaken.
His body weakened, and he fell to the ground.
"Ling Feng, are you okay?" Xuanyuan Xia hurried to Ling Feng's side, placing a hand on his pulse.
Apart from some frailty, there seemed to be no other issues with Ling Feng's body.
"I'm okay!" Ling Feng coughed dryly and said: "I just feel spiritually fatigued!"
The Crystal Skull floated softly to Ling Feng's front: "Tsk tsk tsk, not bad! I didn't expect you to accept the Mechanical Core inheritance so quickly. It seems your spiritual power is far stronger than I imagined!"
"Was this your calculation?" Ling Feng exhaled and said: "You anticipated we would definitely return to the pool bottom and discover this Stone Gate, so you guided us here?"
The Crystal Skull chuckled: "You've realized it too, indeed the one chosen by Alpha, not bad! All of this was arranged by me, of course, if you hadn't doubted my words first, none of this would have existed! But since you discovered and followed my clues to come here, the inheritance also found a suitable heir!"
Ling Feng looked at the Crystal Skull with a complicated gaze, having learned from the ocean-like inheritance just how astonishing the Atlantis God race's mechanical inheritance was!
If the mechanical level of the outside world was at an elementary level, then the level of the Atlantis God race's Mechanical Core was entirely at a college level!
According to the description in the Mechanical Core inheritance, this world is constructed through mechanical frameworks; as long as the right materials are found, using the Mechanical Core's inherited technology, it's entirely possible to create a large-scale War God Puppet Army, reaching even the Azure Sky Realm.
However, the development of the Earth Plane is limited, and many designs remain theoretical, but even so, the Mechanical Core inheritance is terrifying enough!
"However... if I reach another plane, I might be able to find suitable materials and see if I can create an invincible mechanical army. This way, countering the alternate dimension invasion won't be an unreachable goal!" Ling Feng thought to himself.
At this moment, the white mist dissipated, leaving nothing behind in the mist.
"The inheritance of the Mechanical Core has vanished!" The Crystal Skull's voice carried a hint of wistfulness: "Ling Feng, I actually don't know if guiding you here was right, but I hope you make good use of our Atlantis God race's Mechanical Core. I hope that one day, you can help our God race revive and return to our divine honor!"
Even though he had been calculated, Ling Feng ended up being the final beneficiary, and the Mechanical Core's value even rivaled the three Sword Intent moves the Holy Emperor had passed on to him, so he readily agreed to the Crystal Skull's request.
Rumble, at this time, a booming sound emanated from the stone platform. The Formation on the stone platform also emitted dazzling light.
"This place is about to collapse!" the Crystal Skull said: "Hurry up and leave, or you'll be buried here if you're late!"
With that, the Crystal Skull cast another azure light, creating a round hole in mid-air.
Ling Feng and Xuanyuan Xia rushed through the round hole, returning once more to the cave at the bottom of the Deep Pool.
At that moment, a crackling sound came from the stone gate in front of them, shattering into countless fragments that scattered on the ground.
"Behind the stone gate is actually a small space!" Ling Feng thought to himself: "The power of the God race is indeed formidable!"
The shattering of the stone gate startled the Sky-Swallowing Toad. It raised its head, looking at the suddenly appearing Ling Feng and Xuanyuan Xia, with anger and terror in its eyes.
It was the Guardian of the Stone Gate, yet now the gate had shattered before it, completely unknown to it, what a dereliction of duty!
Quack! The Sky-Swallowing Toad was enraged, transmitting a deep sound wave that shot towards the two of them.
Xuanyuan Xia's face turned grave. The power of the Sky-Swallowing Toad was formidable, and unless she exerted the power of the God Realm, it would be hard to subdue it. However, using too much force would bring backlash from the Heavenly Dao!
Just as Xuanyuan Xia was in a dilemma, Ling Feng stepped forward and extended his hand.
An oval Formation Diagram appeared in his hand, emitting a pure white light that fell onto the Sky-Swallowing Toad. A glimmer of confusion appeared in the Sky-Swallowing Toad's eyes, followed by a joyful gleam.
It retracted its sonic attack and crouched in front of Ling Feng, seemingly submitting to him.
