Chapter 834 The Guardians
“Chief Yun Chen, what happened was not your fault. Yun Kong and his men were manipulated by The Unknown to open up the ancestral land,” said Cultivator Junjun as he consoled the chief.
They were well aware of the unknown gray mist’s bewitching ability and that it was easy for anyone to fall under its manipulation. Even the Eldritchs, who were undeniably a powerful clan, were not spared from the unknown gray mist’s manipulation.
The Yun Chief’s brows remained furrowed. Suddenly, the fiery red wings between his eyebrows started to glow, and at the same time, the Fallen God Bow and Fallen God Arrow also lit up. Immediately, all the fiery wings of the Yun clansmen’s foreheads started glowing as well.
The Yun Chief trembled violently before he knelt and bowed to Nanan and the others again. He said sincerely, “The Yun Clan is willing to serve our benefactors!”
The other Yun clan members also knelt and said in unison, “The Yun Clan is willing to serve our benefactors!”
Nanan and others were all stunned.
“What are you doing?” asked Dragin.
“Our bloodline is connected to the Fallen God Bow. Just now, the Fallen God Bow told us that you’re the key to defeating The Unknown. Allow us to do our best to assist you,” said the Yun Chief.
Nanan arched her brow and asked doubtfully, “The bow can do that? Or…could it be that your Overlord’s still alive?”
“The Overlord died in battle, but his will is pinned on this bow. It has been waiting, waiting for the key to defeat The Unknown to appear!” answered the Yun Chief with a tinge of sadness in his voice.
“The key to defeating The Unknown…” They were beginning to understand how the seven supreme powers operated. Even if they died in battle, they would find ways to transform their will into Battle Spirit Guardians, so that one day, when the opportunity came, they would be able to finish off The Unknown.
No, it was not just the seven Battle Spirit Guardians. The same was true of many Origins Pond of Holy Dimensions in the Origins Realm. Countless forebearers had left their inheritance, their power, and their will, just to provide more opportunities for future generations. They must have been waiting for countless years.
“Don’t worry, The Unknown will definitely be suppressed!” said Nanan firmly.
Dragin also nodded and said, “That’s right! If we can suppress The Unknown who caused the catastrophe in the seven dimensions, then we can suppress The Unknown in the Origins Realm, too!”
Then, Nanan and the others took the Fallen God Bow back to the Ancient Forbidden Area, while the Yun Clan went out of the mountain to do some investigation.
Meanwhile, the entire Origins Realm was in shock and panic. Countless people fell into a trance after staring at the unknown gray mist that contained a strange power.
“What… What kind of power is this? I’ve never seen anything like this.”
“The whole world is changing drastically and I feel like something big is about to happen!”
“Upheavals are happening all over the Origins Realm! It seems that some kind of terrifying existence is awakening!” “Hahaha, this gray mist is a brand new power. I broke through my bottleneck after absorbing it! It’s some good stuff.”
“The power of the gray mist is definitely a great opportunity, a great fortune! Quick, breathe it in!”
At that moment, the volcanic land had completely become a world of gray mist. The endless gray mist was still spewing out of the volcanoes and spreading beyond the land. An old man in white stood on the edge of the land, staring at the gray mist with deep eyes. His old weather-beaten face was calm.
He slowly stretched out his hand and strands of golden light poured out from his fingers and melted into the void. A majestic force burst from his body just when the gray mist was about to swallow him. “Wisdom Imprisonment, Space Lock!” shouted the old man majestically.
In an instant, strings of golden silk thread appeared out of thin air. These golden silk threads connected with each other to form a golden prison, imprisoning the entire volcanic land and confining the endless gray mist. The entire area, which stretched for thousands of miles, was entrapped by the old man with a single command. His skill was so powerful that even the unknown gray mist was unable to breakthrough.
With a roar, a huge phantom slowly flew out of the gray mist. It was a black dragon with two wings on its back. A cold light shot out from its gray pupils in its long and narrow eyes, and the terrifying oppressive force charged toward the old man.
“Stupid guardian, I’ve been in slumber for so many years, yet, you’re still here!” said the dragon coldly. “From the moment you fell asleep, I started a sect here to seal up this area. Now, I have to ask you to go back to where you came from,” said the old man calmly.
“Hahaha, you dare stop me? I’ll give you a taste of this brand new power!”
At the seaside, a middle-aged man carrying a wine gourd larger than a human slowly stepped into the air. He was dressed casually, his eyes were hazy, and he was swaying around as if he was drunk. However, with his arrival, an invisible barrier quietly appeared, and the roaring and tumbling waves instantly evaporated into nothingness when they touched the barrier!
It was quite a spectacle. Half of the world’s ocean waves were raging to a height of hundreds of feet, while the other half of the world was as dry as a drought. The same was true of the gray mist overflowing from the sea, forming two distinct worlds.
The middle-aged man pointed at the seawater drunkenly and said, “The gray mist affects the taste of the wine. I, the drunkard guardian, request The Unknown to immediately leave this place.”
The sea surged and parted, leaving a vacuum in the middle. A tall figure who looked like a human that was covered in blue scales with slender ears stepped out slowly. He looked at the drunkard and said coldly, “The new era’s coming. I won’t stop until the gray mist completely contaminates this world. I’ll spare your life if you leave this place now!”
The drunkard shook his head again and again. “No, no, the gray mist affects the taste of the wine.”
“Why you piece of sh*t!” The man’s eyes widened and the sea suddenly roared. The endless sea had condensed into a beast and it immediately chomped down on the drunkard.
In the blink of an eye, the invisible barrier was washed away and the sea covered the sky and engulfed everything. The drunkard smiled drunkenly, took the gourd from behind his back, lifted it high, and poured the wine into his mouth.
A fiery flame burst from the ground and enveloped the drunkard’s body as soon as the wine hit his throat as if it was fire and not wine that he was drinking. The flames and the returning waves intertwined with each other, and the terrifyingly high temperature instantly evaporated all the water that formed the beast.
Meanwhile, Nanan and the others finally arrived at the Fallen Immortal Mountain just as the upheavals were happening all around the Origins Realm.
