Aaron, Goode, and other people made an all-out effort to finish the task. They worked day and night in the Magical Beast Weapon Factory. But it was a pity that they still couldn’t lower the defective products’ rate, and they managed to craft just two strong bows after bustling for a whole month. If they added the previous bow to them, they would have just three bows. They didn’t have enough to equip a team of archers.

However, even though they had gotten just two Godslayer Bows after consuming a large amount of Eaglewood and Soul Moon Stones, those bows’ power was great, and after Yang Ling tried them personally several times, he praised them to high heaven. He also called over Winnink and let him try the power of the reinforced Godslayer Bow.

Swoosh!

The arrow managed to penetrate an obelisk several miles from them, and this was why Winnink couldn’t help but exclaim in amazement. He tested the bow repeatedly, and he quickly grew fond of the Godslayer Bow. Winnink practiced Shadow Wizardry, and he advanced into the High-Level Deity Stage. His power rose greatly, and his concealment ability, as well as his ability to launch careful surprise attacks, was second to none. If he was equipped with a reinforced Godslayer Bow, he would be even stronger.

“Winnink, those two Godslayer Bows will be also given to you. You should choose two assistants by yourself and form a little hunting team with only three members. Later, you will be in charge of assassinating enemies’ leaders and launching a surprise attack on them.” Yang Ling handed over the three Godslayer Bows to the Undead Knight, Winnink. He wasn’t able to form a Godslayer Team with numerous members, but it would still be pretty easy to form an elite hunting team. Even a High-Level Divine Duty Expert wouldn’t manage to defend against three people who fought with coordination, and this team would become his trump card.

“Lord, thank you.” Winnink was very excited. He stroked his Godslayer Bow, which was filled with symbols carved on it, before he muttered to himself and said, “Lord, if you really want to form a team specializing in killing enemies’ leaders, then I have to ask for two other people from you.

“Huh? Which two people?” Yang Ling was very surprised. He didn’t expect that Winnink would find suitable candidates so quickly.

“The Thousand-handed Blood Vine, Elizabeth, as well as the Scorpion King Emmett. If we launch a surprise attack together, we will get a higher chance to instantly murder the enemies’ leader.” Winnink was once an Undead Knight Commander, and he didn’t just possess great power; he also had outstanding observation ability, as well as commanding ability. He knew which people’s combination had the highest offensive power.

A hunting team would focus on hiding its tracks and closing in on the enemy. This was why high stealth ability, endurance, speed, and reaction speed was required for this task. In Winnink’s eyes, the Thousand-handed Blood Vine, Elizabeth, and Emmet were the best candidates, and they were better in this than the Horned Dragon King, Dark Dragon King, Burning Fire Elf King, and other people.

“There aren’t any issues with the Thousand-handed Blood Vine, Elizabeth, but Emmett,” Yang Ling muttered to himself irresolutely and thought about the Scorpion King Emmett that was left in the Graveyard of Gods and Devils.

After Yang Ling considered this, he used the Teleportation Gate, traveled again to the Graveyard of Gods and Devils, and brought back the Scorpion King Emmett. He had done so to raise the hunting team’s power to the highest extent possible, and Winnink didn’t disappoint him at all. In less than a month, he integrated those 2 people into the team, and they became able to cooperate well. If they suddenly launched an attack on someone to assassinate him, that person wouldn’t manage to defend against them effectively.

“Lord, everyone has a Divine Weapon. So, why do she and I not have one?” After the purple mouse, Little Ice, reached the God-Level, it turned into a little boy. He was quite resentful, and he pestered Yang Ling. He noticed that the Corpse Wizard King, Winnink, and other people all had strong Divine Weapons, and this was why he couldn’t calm down.

“That is right! Lord, when it will be our turn?” After the Thousand-faced Mink achieved a Level Advancement, it turned into a delicate little girl. She supported sweetly the purple mouse, Little Ice’s, request. As she stood with the naughty Little Ice, they seemed like a pair of lovely children.

“Everybody has his share of Divine Weapons. But we will only talk about this once you grow up.”

Yang Ling pinched the Thousand-faced Mink’s delicate nose and chuckled before he left with large strides. He convened the crowd and discussed with them the next plan. At first, he planned to travel to the Death Dimension and explore the Skyreach Tower in the depths of the Bone Sea, as well as to revive the Corpse Wizard King’s daughter. But he came across a great plight.

“Lord, I have found the previous spatial fissure, but I couldn’t come up with any way to detect the Death Dimension’s aura even after I racked my brain for solutions.” The Corpse Wizard King’s expression was gloomy, and he was very dejected.

Upon learning that Yang Ling planned to travel to the Death Dimension, the Corpse Wizard King got very excited, and he felt like he saw his daughter next to him. But, he had traveled previously from the Death Dimension to Tailun Continent only by chance, and it would be very difficult to go back from Tailun Continent to the Death Dimension. Even though he used all means up his sleeve, he still couldn’t detect the Death Dimension’s aura.

A spatial fissure would change at every moment. The previous moment, it would lead to the Tailun Continent, and in the next moment, it might lead to a distant and unknown Materialistic Dimension. If one missed some chances, he would never get another opportunity.

“Mertesacker, do you have any method?” Yang Ling sympathized with the helpless Corpse Wizard King, but he couldn’t provide any help. He could only place his hope in the Wandering Divine Beast, the Golden Roc. He wanted to see whether it had any good method to achieve this.

“Lord, I also don’t have any method.” The Golden Roc shook his head. Soon after, he muttered to himself for a moment and said, “In a great battle that occurred in the past, my Star Indicator was destroyed completely. If I don’t have a Stark Mark, I will likely get lost in spatial turbulence, and I won’t be able to accurately find a certain Dimension.”

One didn’t need just great power to travel among spatial turbulence; a Star Indicator that could be used to pinpoint positions was also necessary. A person without a Star Indicator was like a ship without a compass. If they weren’t careful, they would get lost, and the consequences would be too horrible to imagine.

The Golden Roc was a Wandering Divine Beast, and it had a Star Indicator. But it was a pity that it was destroyed thoroughly in the battle against the mysterious old man. It didn’t have a Star Indicator, and it couldn’t even find the way back to Atlantis Dimension, let alone find accurately the Death Dimension among the boundless spatial turbulence.

“It seems like there isn’t any method.” The Corpse Wizard King wore a sad look. Even the Wandering Divine Beast, the Golden Roc, was powerless. It really couldn’t come up with any method to achieve this.

“I don’t have a method, but...” The Golden Roc paused for a moment, muttered to itself, and said, “In the boundless spatial turbulence, one can use a Star Indicator to pinpoint directions. But there is another method. It’s using the Six Main Dimensions as a reference point and making a rough judgment. When I created a spatial fissure last time, I detected the Chaos Main Dimension’s aura. It’s the largest Dimension, and it has many Wandering Castles, as well as powerhouses practicing in seclusion. As long as we come up with a suitable method to go there, we will get to find a suitable Star Indicator there.”

Among the numerous Dimensions, the Life, Force, Nature, and other three Main Dimensions emitted the most intense Energy Ripples. Among them, the Chaos Dimension’s Energy Ripples were the most prominent, and the closer one was to it, the more distinct those ripples. Last time, when the Golden Roc created a spatial fissure, it detected the Chaos Dimension’s Energy Ripples. It didn’t have a Star Indicator, and it wasn’t sure that it could find the Death Dimension, but it still wouldn’t be an issue for it to travel to the Chaos Dimension.

The Chaos Dimension was the largest Dimension among the Six Main Dimensions, like the Life, Force, Nature, and other Dimensions. It also had the largest amount of resources, as well as a messy situation. There were innumerable powerhouses practicing in seclusion, and the number of Wandering Castles in it surpassed greatly the other five Main Dimensions. The Golden Roc believed that, as long as he put some time into this, he would manage to find a suitable Star Indicator in The Chaos Dimension, and at that time, it wouldn’t be too late for them to travel to the Death Dimension.

The Chaos Dimension?

The Corpse Wizard King’s eyes lit up, and he saw a glimmer of hope. This was why he looked nervously at Yang Ling.

“According to our previous Intel, the Chaos Dimension has many Divine Branches, and its situation is very messy. If we intrude into it rashly, we may provoke a strong enemy by mistake.” Yang Ling’s expression was calm and he paused for a moment before he said, “But this is the best way for us to find the Death Dimension. Sirs, please make ample preparations. We will set off in three days.”

He didn’t plan to travel to the Death Dimension just to revive the Corpse Wizard King’s daughter, but his main objective was exploring the Skyreach Tower in the depths of the Bone Sea, as well as seeking the Ancient Wizards’ trails. According to what Richardson had said, there was also a Skyreach Tower in the Chaos Dimension. The Chaos Dimension was the largest Main Dimension, and it had likely more trails and ruins. This was why Yang Ling didn’t mind to take a trip to the Chaos Dimension in advance.

In addition, after several hundred years of swift development, the development of the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension reached a bottleneck again. Both its population and resources alike reached the extreme limit, and one couldn’t count on the Magical Beast Territory to provide any great support to them. Even the whole Tailun Continent wasn’t any longer able to support the swift development of the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension.

The Chaos Dimension, that had rich resources, was probably the crux for another rapid development of the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension.

“We should explore the Skyreach Tower and plunder a large number of resources at the same time. We can also observe, at close distance, the great factions’ battle over the Mother Nest.” Yang Ling thought about the news divulged to him by the Fire God Raymond before they left the Graveyard of Gods and Devils, and he also recalled the Mother Nest, which could produce Wandering Divine Beasts, according to the legends.

The Golden Roc, which still hadn’t recovered its power, was already so amazing. So, wouldn’t it be very awesome to get the Mother Nest and several other Wandering Divine Beasts?

After they ascertained the action plan, the Corpse Wizard King, Ophilia, and other people started bustling. The Corpse Wizard King focused on the Magical Beast Corps’ Elites, and he strengthened further the corps’ joint fight ability. He also specified countermeasures against all kinds of situations. As for Ophelia, she was in charge of gathering all materials related to this, and she would provide ample support to this operation.

This time, the situation wasn’t the same as in the previous exploration of the Graveyard of Gods and Devils. They had already started focusing on developing the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension, and even Sofia, Alice, and other people resided permanently in the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension. They had the whole Wizard Pagoda’s dimension as support, and this was why the crowd was very confident about this operation. They were all full of expectations for it!
