The only difference between the two divine artifacts was that the directions of the leaves by the well were different; one pointed left, while one pointed right. The two divine artifacts radiated a brilliant silver light the moment they met each other without obstruction, like old friends embracing each other after years of separation.
Gao Peng narrowed his eyes. In the silver light, the two fragments of the divine artifact merged. The silver light dyed the whole hall silver and white.
Fatty Big Sea had been secretly observing the King of Robotics, worried that it might steal its divine artifact, but the King of Robotics only watched silently from the side, like an ancient well that seemed calm and unreadable.
[Divine Artifact Name]: Divine Well of Darkness
[Precept Content] Water Rule 11.4%, Yin Rule 10.9%
The Water and Yin precepts were both higher than ten percent! Fatty Big Sea hugged the Divine Well of Darkness, its tongue hungrily licking the tree next to the well, leaving a trail of crystalline saliva. Gao Peng was getting a headache from the sight. This bighead carp just wanted to make the Divine Well of Darkness filthy so others wouldn’t try to take it.
In reality, the King of Robotics, who was standing next to Fatty Big Sea, had zero interest in the Divine Well of Darkness. If it’d had a Metal type or Speed or Power-type rule, it may have attracted the King of Robotics, but the Water and Yin rules were useless to the King of Robotics. Why would it want that thing? The only other one with compatible attributes was Desolion, but why would Desolion fight with this tyrant fish over something?
“Don’t make a fool of yourself,” said Gao Peng.
Fatty Big Sea felt the power of its rule nearly doubling in the Divine Well of Darkness. Its grin was so wide that it almost reached the back of its ears. Rows of gold teeth were exposed in the air; it looked like a rich landlord.
Fatty Big Sea nodded continuously. It nodded at everything Gao Peng said.
While staring at the Divine Artifact, Fatty Big Sea was ecstatic. This Divine Artifact’s precept density was higher than it had been at its peak. In fact, it was stronger than all ordinary divine artifacts.
“Gao Peng, with this divine artifact, it won’t take long before I break through to God-tier,” Fatty Big Sea said excitedly.
“And how long will that be?” questioned Gao Peng.
Fatty Big Sea blanked and said ambiguously, “Four or five years, seven or eight years, or nine or ten years.”
Obtaining the divine artifact had been a surprise. What really puzzled Gao Peng was this Reverse World plane. According to the King of Robotics, there were some monsters one could encounter in the Reverse World that couldn’t be seen in the normal world. Essentially, many monsters were unique to the Reverse World.
They had found the remains of a God, the corpse of a Cursed God, and the fragments of a divine artifact that had come together to form a complete divine artifact. These were all of Gao Peng’s gains so far.
Stepping out of the basement, Gao Peng raised his head to look in the direction of the stairwell. A couple of heads that had been stuck out stealthily instantly withdrew, leaving only the thumping of footsteps on the stairwell.
These monsters were barefoot—it was the sound of bare feet on wooden floors.
“Let’s go.” Gao Peng glanced up, then turned around to walk outside the castle.
All the familiars walked out of the castle in succession. After all of the monsters had exited the castle, Desolion turned around and opened its mouth with a whoosh. Ten Thousand Miles Frost! It left only an ice-sealed castle floating in the muddled vanity space.
“Oh right, Dark Child, try to see if you can decompose the corpses in Silly’s space.” Gao Peng suddenly thought of something. These corpses would be a waste if they were just hidden in the space.
In the past, Silly’s space definitely hadn’t been able to be used for decomposition, but with Silly’s promotion, its space had also expanded and evolved. It was worth a try.
“It works.” Soon, Dark Child announced the good news.
“Then decompose the remains of the Bashe and the corpse of the Cursed God,” Gao Peng ordered secretly. He couldn’t reveal the existence of Dark Child to the King of Robotics just yet. Gao Peng still didn’t trust it completely.
“It’ll take approximately five days,” said Dark Child.
“Okay. Leave whatever is decomposed in Silly’s space.”
“Gao Peng, are we going to keep exploring this Reverse World or leave?” Da Zi asked curiously. This Reverse World was honestly quite boring. It had only a few monsters. Sometimes, not a single monster could be seen even after a long flight. The space was gray, and everything was boring.
“Let’s return the way we came,” Gao Peng said. “The Reverse World is too big. There’ll be no end if we keep wandering like this.” Gao Peng wanted to go home. Since this mission was finished, he would return first.
Gao Peng and the rest returned the same way they had come. After a couple hours of flying, a ripple could be seen in the distance. It was an energy surge, caused when elements collided with each other to create ripples. Usually, the elements in the world moved with order, like waves in the sea. The tide rose and fell, but these elements were part of a whole. They rose and fell with the tide. When ripples were created, half the time it was because there was a battle.
Gao Peng didn’t have to say anything. All the familiars looked at each other and understood without having to speak.
…
A huge, blue, four-antlered deer with countless white starlike spots on its body said through gritted teeth, “This divine artifact has its own consciousness! Buy me some time, and I’ll restrict it!”
“I’ll try my best,” said a four-armed ape with gold fur and dazzling red eyes.
“Don’t just try your best, you must hold it off! If you ruin this for the prince, he won’t let it go,” a round-bellied mutated tribesman who looked like a fat gourd said in a low voice. “Don’t forget, his Highness saved your life! What did you promise him back then?”
The four-armed ape knitted its brows. “I know what I promised…then I’ll definitely make it happen.”
A giant, vicious, bronze-red ax hovered in the air. Crimson twilight spurted out from the axe. The rays of light clustered at the top of the giant ax formed a lively lion head. The lion head wore a fierce expression, its mane spread out.
With a deafening roar, the giant ax chopped down madly, creating a striking red arc in the dim Reverse World.
Two golden rays shot out of the four-armed ape’s eyes. Taking a step forward, the ape grew hundreds of times in size, its muscles expanding, instantly becoming an ancient demon ape.
With a boom, the giant ape’s top two arms were chopped right off. The arms below also showed bone. Blood spewed out madly. The white bones had been irregularly cut. The four-antlered deer at the side was prepared, its antlers giving off a brilliant silver glow. An octagonal constellation charged towards the giant ax.
The giant axe turned around and cut at the constellation mercilessly. The constellation was cut to shards, fragments of starlight falling. Each light was a joint that was connected to other joints by silver white threads, finally forming a net that trapped the giant ax in the middle.
The fierce lion at the top of the giant ax was ill-tempered. “Roar!!” The ax was swung by an invisible giant, feverishly crashing against its prison, each impact giving off a flare.
“This temper…” Goldie’s was deeply moved as it watched from the side. This ax’s name had to start with the word gold!
