"Master, I told you before about the great extinction of the Cang Yuan Era. People at my level can’t really understand much, but I’ve heard that it definitely has sothing to do with these things called Evil Gods!"
"Are you saying it was the Evil Gods who destroyed the Cang Yuan Era?" Zhang nglong asked, noting that Huzi had used the term "these," implying that Evil Gods might not be a singular entity but possibly a species!
"I can’t be certain, but there’s definitely a significant causal relationship," Huzi said. "These Evil Gods are said to co from another dinsion, and the power they possess is incredibly malignant. Any creature tainted by that power becos bloodthirsty and belligerent, even going on killing sprees. And to eliminate just one Evil God demands a considerable price."
"Have you ever seen an Evil God?" Zhang nglong pressed on.
"No," Huzi replied with a bitter smile, "with my level of cultivation, encountering those Evil Gods might not even leave a trace of my remnant soul."
"You ntioned earlier that they co from another space?" Zhang nglong asked Gou Dan, "Gou Dan, are they perhaps from so ga world?"
"In my database, there doesn’t seem to be such a creature as Evil Gods."
"Really?" Zhang nglong frowned, surprised to encounter a creature Gou Dan didn’t understand; this was truly eerie.
"Even the slightest leak of the faint energy could cause a Great Magician to fall into ruin. My father speculates that these Evil Gods are at least level nine perfect creatures, ones nearing the pinnacle of perfection,"
Drake continued, "The surrounding descriptions say that during the Cang Yuan Era, dozens of level nine perfect creatures joined forces to seal it away and suppress it with that statue."
"Brother Zhang, you should know that the level nine perfect creatures from the Cang Yuan Era are not comparable to the level nine perfect creatures of our current era. Once that statue completely breaks, I’m afraid our Dark Magicians’ Association won’t be able to stop that Evil God."
"Your father is a level nine perfect creature, yet you can’t handle it, and you’re putting so much faith in ?" Zhang nglong smiled.
"Honestly, I’m not sure," Drake said. "But for so reason, I just feel like you’re the one who can help us, maybe it’s just intuition."
"Wow, your intuition is quite spot on!"
"There are rumors that you set up a sixth-tier Magic Array within a few hours, which even the most skilled Array Masters today can’t achieve, but you did it. Just this fact sets you apart."
"And you don’t even seem fazed by the legacy of Ainos, such a genius magician. I have every reason to believe your foundation is beyond my imagination, so I wish to take a gamble. Maybe you can help us repair that damaged statue."
"Let’s wait and see," Zhang nglong said, "before seeing it with my own eyes, I can’t be certain. How long can that statue last?"
"Judging by its rate of deterioration, at most 50 years."
"That’s plenty of ti," fifty years may be a blink of an eye to others, but for Zhang nglong, it’s a long stretch of ti; even if he can’t handle the Evil God now, in fifty years, he’ll manage with ease.
It’s not that Zhang nglong is such a righteous hero aiding others; he doesn’t really care about the Dark Magicians’ Association’s affairs. But once they can’t hold out, the Evil God will naturally erge to attack other places. Although Earth’s area is very remote, there’s always a chance.
Besides, the origins of these Evil Gods are very mysterious, and Zhang nglong is filled with curiosity about them.
...
After several days of flight, Drake’s spaceship finally arrived at that Dark Forest.
He initially thought the Dark Forest was just a na, but he didn’t expect the forest to be truly pitch black.
The trees here are much taller than Mount Everest, with each trunk having a diater of hundreds or even thousands of ters. The dense canopy covers the entire forest in darkness.
The jungle hosts a large number of warcraft, even high-level ones aren’t scarce, but they have a very good relationship with these Dark Magicians, even close enough to be considered intimate. When the spaceship passed by, they simply gave their regards without attacking.
Unlike other magicians’ lifestyles, Dark Magicians live in the branches of these trees, so even reside directly inside these massive trees, resembling so of the Elf races Zhang nglong had seen.
Drake brought Zhang nglong to a spot to rest briefly, and soon he returned with a group of people.
"Brother Zhang, let introduce you to..."
"No need for introductions, I’ve seen them on the bounty lists," Zhang nglong chuckled, "This is Mr. Sen, valued at 800 trillion Tianyuan, this Naless Person, 1200 trillion Tianyuan, and Mr. Rubis, valued at 20000 trillion Tianyuan."
Zhang nglong may not be able to na all these individuals, but he sure rembers their worth.
"This must be Mr. Zhang nglong who just entered the top 10 of the bounty list?"
Rubis is a magician with a very distinctive personality; his head is covered in red hair, and his facial features obscure his age. It appears he cares a lot about his appearance, resembling the mature charm of a handso middle-aged man in his forties.
They didn’t look down on Zhang nglong despite his tender age and lower life levels.
First of all, Drake is soone with very high standards. Since he praises Zhang nglong’s abilities to such an extent, it’s clear Zhang nglong is no ordinary person.
Secondly, just entering the bounty list’s top 10, troubling so many top-level magicians, is no feat an ordinary person can achieve.
Lastly, he dares to venture alone into the perilous Dark Forest, a testant to his exceptional skills and courage.
"Please, everyone, no need for formality. I consider myself a friend of Drake, so kindly treat as a younger generation," Zhang nglong said. "My father taught not to co empty-handed when visiting others. I ca in a hurry without preparing anything, so consider this a little token of mine."
Zhang nglong handed Rubis a scroll, not an incantation but a basic thod of magic power cultivation.
Rubis glanced at it, and his eyes involuntarily twitched.
In their Dark Magicians’ Association, he has the top-tier cultivation thod, having learned his magical power cultivation from his teacher.
However, the cultivation thod Zhang nglong provided is at least twice as fast in cultivating magic power, and the condensed magical power’s potency and quality are even higher.
This "temporary token" for him is basically a priceless treasure!
Even if Drake obtained the legacy of Ainos this ti, it might not be as significant as this scroll.
"Nephew, you’re too generous; just having you here is more than enough, bringing gifts makes us feel quite awkward," Rubis said while putting the item close to him, "Co, co, we’ve prepared a banquet for you. Let’s discuss the matter later after we eat!"
