Chapter 274: Chapter 274: Earth-shattering Secret!
Ren Qi and the others were stunned. They didn’t expect Long Yi to become so fierce!
Elise was also stunned with the pitch-black light sword in her hand.
‘Big Brother, why did you not burst out early? It made me enter a weakened state soon.’
Elise was a little speechless, but she still rushed over and helped Long Yi finish the job. In an instant, he killed a Saint-tier Lava Beast Corpse-limb King.
At this time, Ren Qi and the others suddenly realized that there was no need to rush to leave.
Long Yi’s super powerful battle strength directly crushed the three Saint-tier Lava Beast Corpse-limb King, and now he had killed one.
This caused the surrounding ordinary Lava Beast Corpse-limb Kings to immediately burrow into the ground and escape. Moreover, they were very fast.
Tian Jizi looked at Long Yi who was continuing to fight and said in a daze, “I didn’t expect it to be so fierce before. Isn’t it too strong now?”
Xuan Ming said, “It’s ridiculous. It’s crushing it directly. Also, the aura on its body makes it feel like a god that walked out from the ancient saying.”
Zhao Yuheng was also stunned. However, no matter what, it seemed like she didn’t need to sacrifice her undying blood phoenix anymore.
Ren Qi came back to his senses, and his eyes flickered slightly.
Ren Qi was initially surprised by Long Yi’s change, but after thinking about it, it didn’t seem so sudden.
After all, Long Yi was the patriarch of the Dark Divine Dragon clan. He had lived for an unknown period of time, and he had even made a deal with the person who betrayed the temple in the mural.
How could such a guy only have the strength of a half-step Saint-tier?
Ren Qi was a little puzzled when he saw the large number of half-step Saint-tier dark divine dragons earlier.
After all, some of Long Yi’s subordinates had auras that were close to Saint-tier. How could long Yi’s strength be weaker than his clansmen?
The combat strength that Long Yi had displayed now was more in line with his understanding.
At this moment, Ren Qi also ordered the surrounding troops to start dissecting the corpses of the lava beast corpse limbs and search for the soul orbs that might be contained within.
Meanwhile, Long Yi and Elise quickly killed the remaining two Saint-tier Lava beast Corpse-limb Kings and brought back a soul orb from the corpse of the Saint-tier Lava beast Corpse-limb King.
This soul orb was clearly much larger than the other soul orbs, and the soul power contained within it was incomparably rich.
Long Yi slowly returned with a somewhat depressed expression. It was unknown if it was because ten half-step Saint-tier clansmen had given up the divine dragon bead.
Just as Ren Qi had expected, Long Yi’s current strength had only recovered. He did not forcefully increase his own strength. His aura did not decrease in the slightest, and his expression did not show any discomfort.
On the other hand, after the battle ended, Elise’s expression became a little ugly. Her aura became dispirited.
After returning to the succubus army, Ren Qi arranged for Elise to rest.
“Let’s go. We are about to arrive at the fourth sealing gate,” Long Yi said slowly as he looked at Ren Qi and the others.
Seeing Long Yi’s unsightly expression, Ren Qi and the others nodded and did not ask anything.
Following behind Long Yi and the dark divine dragons, the group quickly arrived at the area illuminated by the dark fire.
There was still a huge door standing between the heaven and earth. After arriving here, Ren Qi and the others let out a sigh of relief.
After arriving at the fourth sealing door, Ren Qi and the others saw about 600 dark divine dragons in front of them.
These dark divine dragons’ auras were very dense. Among them, there were 60 half-step Saint-tier dragons. Moreover, two of them had auras that were close to Saint-tier.
Ren Qi and the others brought their troops and began to repair their surroundings.
This time, Ren Qi and the others did not send their troops out to hunt and obtain soul orbs.
The lava beast corpse-limbs here were a little too strong. Most importantly, no one knew if there were Saint-tier Lava Beast Corpse-limb Kings among them.
If they encountered them, the losses of their troops would be extremely serious.
After repairing for a while, Ren Qi looked at Long Yi, who had finished speaking to the dark divine dragons that were guarding the area, and slowly walked over.
“Senior Long Yi, what is behind the fourth sealing gate? Can you tell us first?” Ren Qi looked at Long Yi and directly asked.
Long Yi glanced at Ren Qi and said, “There are no corpse limbs behind the fourth sealing gate, and there are no tarnished.”
“Oh?” Ren Qi raised his eyebrows. He did not expect to hear such an answer.
There were no tarnished and no corpse limbs. Could it be that there was not much danger behind the fourth sealing gate?
Long Yi continued, “Don’t think too much. Although there are no tarnished and corpse limbs behind the fourth sealing gate, there are demigods among them.”
Ren Qi frowned when he heard this. “What are demigods? Don’t tell me that they are a race formed by demigods?”
If that was really the case, they could just stop here and go back.
One demigod was enough to wipe them out.
Long Yi shook his head. “It’s not a tribe composed of demigods. It’s the demigod tribe, a tribe recognized by the God tribe!”
“In the divine war, there were two representatives, the God tribe, Protoss, and the person who betrayed the Protoss. They also had the support of other tribes.”
“The person who betrayed the Protoss persuaded most of the races to form an alliance.”
“However, some races chose the Protoss and were recognized as demigods by the Protoss.”
Ren Qi was stunned. It turned out that they were the races who had fought with the Protoss.
“They were sealed behind the fourth sealing gate?” Ren Qi thought of something and asked Long Yi.
Long Yi nodded. “You can say that, but the demigods behind the fourth sealing door are only a part of it.”
“I have some connections with these demigods. After all, we were all one of the ten thousand races before.”
“However, I’m not sure if they will attack you after seeing you!”
Ren Qi’s eyes flickered as he began to digest the Information Long Yi gave.
“Are you saying that because of you, the demigod tribe behind the fourth wind turbine door will let the Dark Divine Dragon clan pass, but they might attack us?”
Long Yi nodded, indicating that Ren Qi was right.
“Do we have a grudge?” Ren Qi’s expression was a little strange.
Long Yi looked at Ren Qi and asked with a puzzled expression, “You don’t know?”
Ren Qi became even more confused. “Know what?”
Long Yi was stunned for a moment, then, he said, “How should I put it? You, or rather, your plane, is a reserve resource field for the Protoss and demigod races. It was only because of that person’s action that the Protoss and demigod races’ plan failed.”
“So, in the eyes of the demigod races, you are very complicated. There is no enmity between you and them. However, you are the resources that the Protoss and demigod races want to harvest.”
Ren Qi frowned and looked at Long Yi. “Wait, Senior Long Yi, I’m a little confused. What do you mean by us and our plane are the Protoss’ and the demi-gods’ backup resource fields?”
Long Yi smiled and looked at Ren Qi. “Who do you think gave you the overlord power that you humans suddenly had a hundred years ago?”
Ren Qi was stunned. A hundred years ago, the black fog appeared, and then the humans had the overlord power.
However, no one knew how humans obtained this power, and it seemed that Long Yi was clear about it.
“Senior Long Yi, please explain.” Ren Qi took a deep breath and looked at Long Yi solemnly.
This was a mystery from a hundred years ago, but now it seemed like it could be solved.
“Your lord’s power was bestowed to you by the Protoss and Demigod Races!” Long Yi’s words were shocking as he looked at Ren Qi and said.
Their power came from the Protoss and demigod clans?
Ren Qi was stunned. He did not expect to receive such a result from Long Yi.
Their lord’s power came from the Protoss and demigod clans?
They were being used as a backup resource field?
Ren Qi continued to digest this information. At the same time, the sealed memories in his mind seemed to have been opened as they appeared in Ren Qi’s mind.
Ren Qi’s brows were tightly knitted together as images continuously appeared in Ren Qi’s mind.
The Protoss and demigod tribes had bestowed upon them the ability of the human lords of this plane. The monsters that came along with the black fog were also the masterpieces of the Protoss and demigod tribes.
In the end, when the humans on earth had matured to a certain extent, the Protoss and demigod tribes would take these ‘resources’ from them!
With this line of thought, some things that were difficult to explain in the past seemed to be connected in an instant.
For example, there had never been any Holy Stones on earth before. However, after the appearance of the black fog this time around, there was a large number of Holy Stones.
Another example was that the highest tier of the lords on earth was only at the ninth tier. However, after the appearance of the black fog this time around, their troops were able to break through the ninth tier and reach the Saint-tier!
No Wonder Long Yi wasn’t sure if the demigods would attack them.
After all, in their eyes, they were only their ‘resources’.
Ren Qi thought of something and looked at Long Yi. “Senior Long Yi, I have a question. If these demigods attack us, whose side will your Dark Divine Dragon clan side with?”
Long Yi’s attitude was very important, which meant that Ren Qi and the others could continue to move forward.
Hearing this, Long Yi said without hesitation, “The Dark Divine Dragon clan and I will naturally stand on your side. Have no doubt about this.”
“It’s because of that person that I’m guarding this place. In essence, I’m a rival to those demigods. It’s just that they don’t know what happened between me and that person.”
“It doesn’t matter to those people around you, but you have that person’s memories. I still want to bring you to the forbidden land.”
“If those demigods really attack you, I’ll stand on your side.”
Ren Qi sighed in relief after hearing Long Yi’s words.
If Long Yi didn’t stand on their side, Ren Qi probably wouldn’t have entered the fourth forbidden gate.
Ren Qi nodded and looked at Long Yi. “I understand, senior Long Yi. I’ll discuss it with my companions and let you know if they want to go or not.”
After Ren Qi finished speaking, he returned to the camp where the soldiers were resting.
Soon after, Ren Qi called Zhao Yuheng, Li Tianlan, and the others over.
Ren Qi told Zhao Yuheng, Li Tianlan, and the others about what Long Yi had said and his own guess with a solemn expression.
When Zhao Yuheng, Li Tianlan, and the others heard this, they were greatly shocked, as if they had heard something completely impossible.
Their lord-tier abilities came from the Protoss and demigod races?
They were only the ‘resources’ of the Protoss and demigod races?
This kind of information was really too hard to accept.
Ren Qi knew that this kind of news was really too hard to accept, so he just quietly waited for them to digest it.
“Ren Qi, are you saying that we are all ‘resources’ raised by the Protoss and demigod races in another plane?” Guo Feiyang looked at Ren Qi with a very difficult expression.
Anyone who knew that they were ‘resources’ raised by another race would probably not be able to remain calm.
“Although it’s a little difficult to accept, if this is the case, some things can be explained clearly,” Xu Xinghe said with some difficulty.
The surrounding people were stunned. This was indeed the case.
After the appearance of the hundred-year-old black fog, the humans on earth had inexplicably gained the ability of a lord. There were also the demon caves and monsters that came with it. It seemed that everything could be explained by the conspiracy between the Protoss and the demigod race.
Zhao Yuheng was the first to calm down. She looked at Ren Qi and said directly, “If this is the case, the appearance of the black fog in a hundred years’ time should be the action of the Protoss and the demigod race.”
“However, the Protoss probably didn’t gain anything from the divine war a hundred years ago, so the appearance of the black fog didn’t develop in the direction that the Protoss and demigod races expected.”
Ren Qi nodded. This was the conclusion he came to after combining the memories in his mind.
“How many Protoss are still there? Since we’re their ‘resources,’ do they have any means to deal with us?” Xuan Ming looked at Ren Qi and asked two questions.
Ren Qi shook his head and said, “I don’t know how many members of the Protoss still have, but they definitely have some. As for whether they have any means to deal with us, I guess they should have some before, but they shouldn’t have any now.”
“Otherwise, we wouldn’t be safe until now.”
After saying that, Ren Qi looked at the crowd and said, “The Protoss and the demigod tribe’s matter is not something that we can consider and participate in yet. The most important thing now is to improve ourselves so that we don’t have the strength to deal with the Protoss and the demigod tribe in the future.”
“Now, you have to consider whether or not you should follow Long Yi into the fourth sealing gate.”
“There are sealed demigod races there, and it’s very likely that they will attack us.”
“Although Long Yi didn’t mention the strength of these demigods, from the fact that he has to get along with these demigods using his previous relationship with the ten thousand races, it can be seen that these demigods are not weak.”
“I’m also not sure if there will be any danger to the demigods inside after entering the fourth sealing door, or if there will be any major losses to the troops inside.”
“So, you guys have to consider whether you want to go in or not.”
Ren Qi’s words made Zhao Yuheng and the others fall into deep thought.
After all, they might be the ‘resources’ that the Protoss and the demigods raised. This news still gave them a great shock.
If the demigod race was the one who ‘reared’ them, would they have any power to suppress the demigod race?
However, after a simple thought, Li Tianlan took the lead to express her stance.
“I want to go!”
For Li Tianlan, entering the forbidden land was her goal in itself. Before she came, she had already anticipated the danger. It was just that the sudden appearance of the demigod race this time was even more intense.
Moreover, she had already recognized Ren Qi as her ally and friend.
If he was going, she was going too!
Zhao Yuheng was slightly stunned when she heard Li Tianlan’s firm words. She didn’t expect Li Tianlan to be the first to make a decision.
However, before Zhao Yuheng could say anything, Li Linan said, “I’ll go wherever sister Tianlan Goes.”
Zhao Yuheng thought for a moment and said, “I’ll go too.”
Following Li Tianlan and Zhao Yuheng’s words, the others also expressed that they wanted to continue.
If Zhao Yuheng didn’t go, they might be a little hesitant. However, now that the two strongest fighters were going, they naturally wanted to keep up.
After all, danger also represented opportunity.
Moreover, they could obtain all kinds of information about the black fog during this trip to the forbidden land.
For example, now, they had learned this shocking secret.
If they had not come here, it was likely that they would not have known this shocking news for a very long time!
Seeing that everyone around had agreed to continue to enter the next forbidden door, Ren Qi nodded.
These people were not fools. They knew that if they continued, although there would be danger, the rewards would be great.
Moreover, even if they were outside, they would encounter many dangers.
It was better to stay here. The rewards would be even greater!
After chatting for a short while, Ren Qi and the others returned to the camp to repair themselves.
This time, it had not even been a day, so Tina did not enter Ren Qi’s tent.
Due to the stimulation of Long Yi’s words, the memories that were previously sealed in Ren Qi’s mind began to surface, causing the sleeping Ren Qi to frown.
Images began to appear in Ren Qi’s mind, and the figure in the mural also became clearer in Ren Qi’s mind.
Eight hours later, Ren Qi and the others gathered in front of the fourth sealing gate.
The Elemental Elf Queen was already awake, but her face was still pale, and her aura had yet to fully recover.
Elise’s situation was similar, and it would take at least ten more hours before she could fully recover.
However, there was no time to wait for the Elemental Elf Queen and Elise to recover.
They needed to enter the fourth sealing door.
Long Yi soared into the air, and a large amount of dragon breath gushed toward the sealing gate in front of them.
Black light slowly drifted down from the sealing door, forming a light door in front of Ren Qi and the others.
The passage leading to the fourth sealing gate was opened!
