Chapter 1374 – Clouds of Suspicion

“Come here, over here!” A summoning voice that came from his soul transcended s.p.a.cetime to resound in the Thought Body’s mind.

The summoning voice was one most intimate and familiar. It soothed the Thought Body’s rage, making it more calm and rational.

“Jailsea, what’s up with this person? Where are Xin Wuheng and the others?” Ancient G.o.d Ice Jade coldly asked.

When Ancient G.o.d Jailsea sent out his plea for help, he said that he was being pursued by Xin Wuheng and Zhao Feng. Thus, Ancient G.o.d Ice Jade immediately led her team over, naturally so that she could take all the credit for herself. But when she arrived, she only saw Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun.

As for Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun’s situation, Ancient G.o.d Ice Jade somewhat sensed it, but she still paid him little regard.

“They ran off. This person is also a member of the Giant G.o.d Race. Kill him first!” Ancient G.o.d Jailsea immediately said.

Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun had repeatedly ruined his plans and was extremely troublesome and hard to get rid of, leaving Ancient G.o.d Jailsea incensed. Ancient G.o.d Jailsea now hated Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun more than he hated Zhao Feng and Xin Wuheng.

“How incompetent! When you get back, I’d like to see how you explain things to Hall Master!” Ancient G.o.d Ice Jade shot Ancient G.o.d Jailsea a disdainful gaze.

It was easy to see that Ancient G.o.d Jailsea had long ago found Xin Wuheng’s group, but for the sake of his own selfishness, he didn’t inform the others. It wouldn’t have mattered if he had completed the mission, but Ancient G.o.d Jailsea failed, and he had suffered such a miserable defeat that he had even lost his two team members.

Ancient G.o.d Jailsea fell silent. This was also his worry. However, he still had an opportunity to save himself. As long as he could put on a good performance for the rest of the mission and play a major role in taking back the Ancient G.o.d Seal, the hall master and G.o.d Lord Stellar Aspect would probably not blame him.

Ancient G.o.d Ice Jade moved forward and gazed at Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun. Since this person was being controlled by a Thought Body, why was it targeting Ancient Soul Hall, and why did it hate them so much?

At this moment, Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun suddenly turned around.

“I’m coming!” Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun put on a respectful expression as he excitedly said. He transformed into a streak of light and flew into the distance.

“Don’t let him run!” Ancient G.o.d Jailsea immediately yelled. He was also rather confused. Hadn’t Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun lost his mind? Wasn’t he heedlessly attacking him?

“What incredible speed!” Ancient G.o.d Ice Jade’s expression focused. She had somewhat underestimated Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun.

“Stay here and tell me all your secrets!” As Ancient G.o.d Ice Jade coldly spoke, all the ice and snow around her expanded. In a flash, a bone-freezing chill filled the world, freezing almost everything in its tracks.

But this chill was more targeted toward the soul. Ancient G.o.d Jailsea’s soul body had already sustained heavy injuries, and he instantly found it difficult to endure.

In the distance, the Thought Body inside Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun also sensed a freezing chill encroaching upon it and couldn’t help but tremble.

“This half-step G.o.d Lord is even stronger than Ancient G.o.d Jailsea?” Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun whispered. The current him was much calmer than he was before and knew to observe and a.n.a.lyze.

But even if Ancient G.o.d Ice Jade was stronger than Ancient G.o.d Jailsea, he couldn’t be stopped if he wanted to escape.

“Time Fade!” Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun called out, his body exploding with intense Time ripples.

An absurd scene occurred; Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun rippled with strange light, his entire body became transparent, and then with a buzz, he transformed into an unfathomable ray of light.

Swis.h.!.+

A moment later, the ray of light that was Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun ignored the chill and flew away at an even faster speed.

“This is…” Ancient G.o.d Jailsea’s jaw dropped.

That Ancient G.o.d managed to flee while facing Ancient G.o.d Ice Jade at her peak strength. Just what escape technique was so bizarre and powerful?

The other two members of Ancient G.o.d Ice Jade’s team were also dumbfounded.

“That’s not some simple Time technique, but an even more profound use of Time. Could that Thought Body have belonged to that race before its death…?” Ancient G.o.d Ice Jade’s cold and jade-like face turned grim.

For a moment, her mind was engulfed in clouds of doubt and suspicion. If that Thought Body really belonged to that race, then she found herself somewhat unwilling to offend it. Fortunately, their objective this time was Xin Wuheng and his Ancient G.o.d Seal.

“Which direction did Xin Wuheng’s group run off in!?” Ancient G.o.d Ice Jade coldly asked.

“In the same direction that the Giant G.o.d Race member went just now!”

…

Meanwhile, Zhao Feng and the others were cautiously flying along. After all, this was a secret dimension covered in dangerous areas. In their condition, caution was absolutely necessary.

“Let’s get as far away from here as possible,” Xin Wuheng called out.

If Ancient Soul Hall had other members here, once they gathered together, they would definitely come in pursuit.

At this moment, the group suddenly noticed something strange behind them. They scanned with their Divine Senses and were immediately surprised.

“Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun!?” Ancient G.o.d Sundermount called out in alarm.

The demonized Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun had left an extremely deep impression on them. Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun was now rus.h.i.+ng toward them. Had he given up on pursuing Ancient G.o.d Jailsea and was now coming to attack them?

Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun also spotted Zhao Feng’s group, a hint of anger appearing on his face. However, the secret art he used a moment ago to escape from the half-step G.o.d Lord had left him rather weak, and he was in no condition to keep fighting. Besides, he had a more important task, so he didn’t have any time to mess around with Zhao Feng’s group anyway.

“His expression has changed a lot,” Zhao Feng called out.

Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun was calmer than before, but it was only the Thought Body that was calm. Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun’s soul was probably completely suppressed by now.

Thwis.h.!.+

Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun flew past the group and vanished into the distance.

“He’s somewhat weak. Could it be that there really are other members of Ancient Soul Hall here?” Ancient G.o.d Resplendence suddenly asked.

Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun treated Ancient Soul Hall as if some deep-seated grudge existed between them. Despite that, Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun didn’t continue to pursue Ancient G.o.d Jailsea and was now fleeing in a weakened state. This meant that it was almost certain that other experts from Ancient Soul Hall had arrived. Thus, Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun had determined that he was no match for them and chose to flee.

“No, it seems more like he’s anxious to get to a certain place,” Zhao Feng said. He was able to observe Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun more closely.

“Should we follow him?” Ancient G.o.d Resplendence asked.

The Thought Body attached to Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun’s body had undoubtedly once lived in this dimension. The place he was so anxious to get to was almost certainly an extremely important area.

“Right now, it’s best if we get away from this place and find a place to recover from our injuries,” Zhao Feng suggested.

The four of them were in awful condition. If they ran into a pack of Yao G.o.ds or some other danger, they would probably all be finished.

“There’s a Heaven’s Legacy Race building up ahead.” Ancient G.o.d Sundermount’s eyes twinkled.

Earlier, when they went into the first Heaven’s Legacy Race building, they had basically confirmed that this was not an inheritance ground of the Heaven’s Legacy Race. Thus, he wasn’t as excited to spot another Heaven’s Legacy Race building.

“That isn’t the only one!” Zhao Feng could see far more with his eyes than the others.

He discovered that there were many more Heaven’s Legacy Race buildings. Moreover, these Heaven’s Legacy Race buildings were rather unique; they seemed to have been equipped with offensive machinery, as if they were powerful fortresses that could be used for both offense and defense.

All of these buildings showed signs of damage. Some of them had even been completely destroyed, leaving only piles of rubble.

“So many Heaven’s Legacy Race buildings!” Ancient G.o.d Resplendence said in surprise. She had seen much regarding the Heaven’s Legacy civilization before, but she had never seen so many war-type buildings before.

“Stop! There’s a pack of Yao G.o.ds inside that ma.s.sive gray fortress,” Zhao Feng suddenly stopped and messaged the others.

The group then cautiously made their way around and continued forward.

“A war took place here,” Xin Wuheng whispered.

“One side was related to the Heaven’s Legacy Race, or it might have been the Heaven’s Legacy Race itself!” Ancient G.o.d Sundermount conjectured.

The Heaven’s Legacy Race was ranked 3rd among the Ten Thousand Ancient Races. They were a mythical race with far too many legends.

“Could the former master of the Ancestral Legacy Treasury have been the Heaven’s Legacy Race?” Xin Wuheng pensively asked.

The Ancient G.o.d Seal was a special divine artifact forged by the Heaven’s Legacy Race, a key that could open this dimension. This dimension also contained many war-type buildings of the Heaven’s Legacy Race, and it seemed like some major event had taken place here.

The other two members of the Giant G.o.d Race and Zhao Feng also began to feel that the Ancestral Legacy Treasury was some mysterious ground linked to the Heaven’s Legacy Race.

Five days later, the group was still flying through the same region. At certain intervals, they would see another Heaven’s Legacy Race building.

“Eh? That giant silver tower…” Zhao Feng suddenly focused his gaze on a ma.s.sive metal Heaven’s Legacy Race tower.

This silver tower was much taller than any of the other buildings they had seen, and it was very well-preserved. His previous experience told Zhao Feng that the more complete and larger buildings had almost all been occupied by Yao G.o.ds, yet there were no signs of any Yao G.o.ds living in the vicinity of this tower.

As they approached, Zhao Feng suddenly understood. This building was so well-preserved because all its entrances were sealed. Ordinary Yao G.o.ds were incapable of getting inside.

“Let’s enter that giant tower and recover from our injuries. Then, we can think about what to do next,” Zhao Feng suggested.

Meow!

The little thieving cat immediately rushed out from the interspatial dimension, its eyes glimmering as it stared with great interest at the tower.

“That’s right! This cat is skilled in Heaven’s Legacy secret arts. It should be able to open this tower!” Ancient G.o.d Resplendence rejoiced.

Boom!

The little thieving cat quickly rushed up to the entrance and began to fumble around. A few moments later, the ma.s.sive metal gates began to open.

Once the group entered, the metal gates closed once more.

“Thieving cat…!” Zhao Feng was amazed.

Once they got in, the little thieving cat immediately ran off.

Zhao Feng and the members of the Giant G.o.d Race first found a place so they could enter seclusion.

Earlier, Ancient G.o.d Resplendence fought against the Rank Nine Ancient G.o.d, so her injuries were the most severe, and her foundation had been damaged. Xin Wuheng, by using the G.o.d Lord energy, had also damaged his foundation. If these injuries were not promptly healed, it would hinder their future cultivation and become even more difficult to heal later.

Zhao Feng was in slightly better condition. Only his Eye Intent had been significantly damaged. After consuming some healing medicines, he could slowly recover from his wounds.

Swis.h.!.+

Zhao Feng took out a glimmering piece of jade bamboo. The moment he took it out, a powerful Time energy engulfed his surroundings, causing everything to slow down.

Moonlight Sky Bamboo contained Time Essence and was a treasure for cultivating Time Intent. It could even increase the user’s ability to comprehend Time Intent.

At this moment, Zhao Feng’s Time Intent had already reached Level Five. Once he took the Moonlight Sky Bamboo, he probably wouldn’t need very long to reach Level Six.

One had to realize that Zhao Feng’s Five Elements, Wind Lightning, and other kinds of Intent were only at the peak of Level Six.

Zhao Feng swallowed the Moonlight Sky Bamboo and began to cultivate.
