Chapter 2: Second Brother
Ning Yue crouched on the ground, looking around several times, and discovered that the world had indeed quieted down, with no signs of battle remaining. Only then did he slowly stand up
Later on, Ning Yue simply found a safe place, squatted down, and held her head with both hands, repeatedly murmuring: "One sheep, two sheep, three sheep..." hoping to hypnotize herself and no longer face such a terrifying scene
Ning Yue had a question on his mind, but Xu Xun was no longer able to answer him
This little pig, adorned with a dazzling array of colors, jumped into the sea of fire, seemingly confident in its own safety. It then turned around, facing the statue with three heads and six arms, resembling a being with an elephant's head and a human body, and began to grunt vigorously, conveying a sense of challenge.
Ning Yue stared at this strange scene, unable to help but be momentarily stunned, and then, belatedly, shouted: "You haven't told me what the divine crystal is used for, where do you and Luo Yan come from? Also... can you teach me those powerful spells?"
Ning Yue confirmed the news once again. Seeing Xu Xun nodding, he asked in a somewhat panicked manner, "Then how do I get out?"
This divine crystal is undoubtedly the object that Xu Xun wanted to seize from Luo Yan. Ning Yue dared not stay, as he was merely an ordinary youth and had no means to compete for treasures with such god-like beings, unless he was tired of living.
Xu Xun was unaware of what he had done, yet Ning Yue felt a strange force flowing into his mind
Ancient cities and boundless seas of fire, competing fiercely, repeatedly clashing, as if two worlds are colliding, crushing, and invading
Ning Yue looked at Xu Xun, who forced a slight smile at him, but the last half of his face soon crumbled, unable to hold back his cries. However, this time, no one answered him anymore
Ning Yue reached out to touch his forehead, but found nothing. He was in a state of astonishment when suddenly a very pleasant voice sounded from behind him. The voice, somewhat surprised and astonished, said: "I didn't expect it! The divine crystal actually chose you. I was just fighting with Luo Yan and didn't have the time to ask how you managed to enter my dimensional battlefield?"
Luo Yan launched this strike, clearly exerting considerable effort, as Xu Xun manipulated the lightning to continuously blast open large areas of empty space. Countless ancient buildings suddenly emerged from the ground, causing the ancient city to expand by one-tenth in an instant
Ning Yue suddenly felt a voice continuously calling out to him. Gathering his courage, he walked for a while towards the center of the ancient city. After turning around a crumbling high wall, he saw a red crystal, as large as a person, floating more than one meter above the ground.
What he saw was a landscape filled with ruins and debris; apart from a small section at the center, there were a few palaces, while the rest had turned into scorched earth
Ning Yue wished she could personally dig the divine crystal out from her forehead and present it to Xu Xun with both hands
In the next instant, a fiery meteor descended from the sky, and the statue with three heads and six arms, resembling a man with an elephant's head, could not withstand the impact of this meteor, which was as large as a small mountain, and was instantly shattered into pieces
Xu Xun conveyed these matters, as if he had been relieved of a great burden, and his entire being began to emit fine, hair-like flashes of lightning, while his body gradually disintegrated and dissipated
The statue with three heads and six arms, featuring an elephant's head and a human body, let out a low roar. With a single punch, it tore through the void, transforming into an invisible lightning tornado, which even created a deep crack in the sea of flames at the edge of the ancient city.
Although Ning Yue felt somewhat afraid, there was a force within him that continuously urged him to step forward
This fellow just witnessed the battle with Luo Yan, and the gray-haired youth was simply as formidable as a deity, so powerful that it is beyond description
Xu Xun smiled faintly and said, "I am already on the verge of death, so I will let you have it! I will give you my dimensional battlefield; once you have it, you can enter and exit at will. Please take good care of these statues for me! They are all my best pets..."
Just now, the little pig adorned with colorful brilliance charged into Xu Xun's home ground, and at this moment, all the territory occupied was reclaimed by Xu Xun
The fire line surged forward continuously dozens of times, but was met head-on by a statue with three heads and six arms, resembling a figure with an elephant's head and a human body. The fire line momentarily halted, revealing a small pig adorned in resplendent multicolored light.
The battle between Xu Xun and Luo Yan directly influences the ownership of every inch of land. The divine statues and flame beasts under their command continuously cheer for their masters, engaging in a life-and-death struggle, sacrificing their own lives for every bit and every inch of land in contention.
Ning Yue suddenly turned around and saw the impeccably poised gray-haired youth, Xu Xun. He hurriedly shook his hand and exclaimed, "If you want this so-called divine crystal, feel free to take it. I have no desire for this thing. I don't even know why I stumbled in here. If I had known, I certainly wouldn't have come in here to seek death!"
Just when Ning Yue thought that the statue with three heads and six arms, resembling a human body with an elephant's head, would defeat all opponents and help its master achieve a decisive victory
When his hands touched the enormous red crystal, a surge of power suddenly erupted from his body. He watched in astonishment as the massive red crystal gradually shrank, eventually flying into his forehead.
This little pig looks very cute, but it also appears quite angry. It grunted twice, suddenly leaped up, and forcefully knocked a nearby statue into pieces. Then, it ran away in another direction
Even in a moment of crisis, Ning Yue could not help but laugh out loud, secretly exclaiming: "Second Senior Brother is truly adorable, this big fellow is completely unable to do anything about him"
Are you going to die
Xu Xun shook his head with a bitter smile and said, "I am close to death. Luo Yan just chose a move that would lead to our mutual destruction. Although she has turned to ashes under my counterattack, I cannot live much longer. What use is the divine crystal to me? Moreover, even if I obtain it, I would have no way to use it. Only those who have been recognized by the divine crystal can wield its power"
The statue with three heads and six arms, featuring an elephant's head and a human body, let out a low roar and charged into the sea of flames. With its six arms flailing, it instantly slaughtered over one hundred flame beasts, as if no flame beast could withstand it for even a moment
Hello! Don't die so soon! I still have other questions I want to ask!
Although the statue with three heads and six arms, depicting a man with an elephant's head, possesses boundless magical power, its speed is no match for that of the colorful little pig. This little pig, with its four short and stout legs, runs with astonishing speed. Despite its furious appearance, it cannot catch up. As one watches, the little pig dashes wildly, reaching the edge of the ancient city, and then leaps into the sea of fire.
When he counted more than 20,000 sheep, suddenly the world was engulfed in darkness, followed by a series of earth-shattering tremors. As the echoes of the tremors gradually subsided, the world became eerily silent.
The intensity of this battle was something Ning Yue had never heard of before; almost every second, he was filled with trepidation, fearing that the conflict between the two sides would suddenly spill over to him, leaving him in a dire situation.
As for how he got in, Ning Yue himself was puzzled; where could there possibly be a correct answer to give the other party
He cannot fully comprehend what Xu Xun has handed to him, but even the minuscule portion that he is able to understand is sufficient for him to grasp how to manipulate the dimensional battlefield simply
Xu Xun's body became transparent, and below his chest had completely collapsed. He could only manage to say one last sentence to Ning Yue: "The divine crystal can fulfill any wish you have, but it comes at a cost. You would be wise not to use it..."
