Inside the magma hall.

Peng!

A hand stabbed through the stone wall and scattered pebbles everywhere.

Garen strolled out from the hole. His upper body was naked and he wore a pair of trousers with leather shoes. He gave off a neat and tidy impression, looking as if he had just finished changing his clothes and was out for a casual walk.

He looked around the hall that was scattered with pieces of bloody meat and sniffed at the sour odor that was in the air.

In the center of the hall was a circular garden. Taking a look from afar, it was filled with monstrous giant plants.

Swish swish swish!!

Three tentacles came from behind him.

Garen grabbed towards his back with one of his hands and grasped a tentacle. He pulled the tentacle forward.

Wu!!

A sharp scream came from a distant place. The transmission speed of the sound wave was faster than the general sounds and reached Garen’s ears in an instant. The surrounding stones trembled and shattered into dust and crumbs.

Ordinary people would have their eardrums broken and receive a concussion when they heard this sound wave.

However, Garen only frowned and pulled the tentacle again.

Peng!

With a snap, the tentacle in his hand was ripped out by him and thrown aside by him.

The remaining two tentacles had already shrunk back when Garen grasped one of them. They seemed to have their own independent consciousness from the way they curled back as though they were scared.

Garen noticed this when he turned his head back.

“Interesting...” the edge of his mouth curled into a smile.

‘Don’t complicate things.’ Black Sethe voiced out and cautioned against his intention to go back to trace the source of the tentacles. ‘If I’m not mistaken, these tentacles should be parasitic tentacles that have infested this place. They’ve merged with this underground palace and acts like its organs. Unless you completely destroy this underground palace, you won’t be able to kill them off.’

“Is there nothing for me here?” Garen said and frowned.

‘Go and take a look at the garden, there’s a fluctuation of teleportation there, maybe it’s the entrance to another place,’ Black Sethe suggested softly.

Garen leaped and avoided the magma-filled cracks everywhere while darting towards the central green garden.

After a few breaths, he fell on top of the garden’s white wall and peered inside.

The strange scene inside the garden appeared before his eyes.

Inside the garden was not some flowers, grasses, and giant plants but a twisted black vortex swirling around emitting a black glow. The edge was filled with giant plants which formed a huge garden.

“No wonder there’s so many green plants when there’s no water and light. It’s all an illusion that acted as a bait.” Garen said.

‘This is Void Flower Seed. There’s a small space inside that acted as a world inside. You can go and take a look inside. This thing is not dangerous because it’s just a simple teleportation gate,’ Black Sethe replied. Black Sethe was well-informed, and there seemed to be nothing that he did not know.

Garen nodded his head. He and Black Sethe shared the same body. There was no need to worry about him having malicious intents.

He jumped slightly and fell towards the black glow. In the middle of the air, he felt a huge suction force pulling him suddenly. He immediately disappeared into the vortex of black light.

***************

“Buddha Mother... Holy Phoenix!”

AG touched the surface of a huge tree with an indescribable horror in his eyes.

“This place is the land of Buddha Mother Holy Phoenix!” he said. His lips were trembling and he seemed to be in utter astonishment.

Nasira and Manasi were at a place not far behind him. They concealed their presence, leaving only the smell of blood in the air. They looked no different from the surrounding trees and were completely hidden.

“Buddha Mother Holy Phoenix? What is that?” Nasira asked. She had only used an emergency treatment for her internal bleeding. She was looking exhaustedly at AG now. He seemed to have discovered some clues about this place.

The giant’s footsteps were still shaking the ground in the distance. The only thoughts the three of them had now were on the way to leave this place.

The amazement on AG’s face soon returned to calmness but the horror in his eyes remained.

“There was a legend about an ancient eastern sect. The origin of this sect was a terrifying existence known as Buddha Mother. It was said that this existence appeared at the same time as the Blood Breeds, and they were the product of myth from the same era. As for Holy Phoenix, it refers to the secret method of that sect. Holy Phoenix Celestial Clothes means a divine bird that wore the light from Buddha or a feather coat that came from a divine bird. It could be an item or it could be a legacy. A shame... That sect had deteriorated into a thoroughly ordinary sect. There is no longer the brilliance of that era. Unexpectedly, their history could be found here!”

“Myth...Something that came from a myth really appeared in reality?” Nasira exclaimed. She was shocked and a little disbelieving. It was like telling a person that the oil lamp before their eyes was the legendary lamp that granted wishes to Aladdin, totally unbelievable.

“I’ve also heard of it.... In the Buddhist Hindu mythology, Buddha Mother is the Holy Phoenix. Holy Phoenix was also known as The Great Luminous King of Peacock with the title of Buddha Mother. Rumor has it that she swallowed Bodhi Lotus and wailed for ten days and ten nights before giving birth to Buddha,” Manasi said weakly. “Once, I went to the Buddhist headquarters but I found nothing extraordinary so I thought that it was just a myth. I never thought that...”

Kacha!!

Blue lightning flashed by and caught the three people’s attention.

They looked up at the place where the lightning flashed by.

Under the night sky, lightning flashed continuously with a hissing sound and weaved into a large net of blue lightning.

In the middle of the net, an eyeball the length of a human slowly turned into a black vortex gate.

A figure came out of the door slowly.

It’s Garen!

His eyes were vacant as though he had not figured out the situation.

Weng!!!

A huge shadow came crashing towards him. It was the ring weapon that belonged to the three-headed giant.

The sound of lightning not only attracted the attention of AG and the others, it also caught the attention of the giant. It did not mutter any sound and went directly to smashing down the strongest weapon in its hands.

“En?” Garen looked up. The electricity that flashed in his eyes disappeared and he saw the huge ring that came crashing down on him.

‘It’s a creature from another dimension! Hahaha! Heaven did not disappoint us, Kill it! Get the core inside and we can get out of here!’ Black Sethe suddenly became excited and shouted in his mind.

Garen took a deep breath which formed a whirlpool that swallowed the air in his surroundings.

From the terrifying pressure that came down on him, he knew he had to get serious here.

“First star!!”

The fingers on his right hand tapped across several acupuncture points.

“Second star!!” a dozen more acupuncture points were activated.

“Third star!!”

Hu!!

All the hair on Garen’s body stood up and the muscles all over his body bulged to form an armor-like outline.

His height increased and his palms became as big as the size of a human’s head.

There was no technique involved. He only clenched his right hand and raised it to smash the ring.

Activating the third star, Garen’s originally seven points immediately increased to around twenty points. This punch looked very normal but when the fist shot through the air, it created shockwaves. It was a shockwave that was created by powerful force together with secret techniques.

“He... He has the guts to face it head on!!” Nasira knew the power of that ring. It was at least two to three times the power of other weapons and it also had a suction force that made it hard to dodge.

Now that Garen was facing the ring head on without a change in his expression, she felt that her heart had skipped a beat and her body was almost jumping.

Comparing Garen’s three meters height to the giant’s dozens of meters was like comparing an ant to an elephant! However, with such a gap, incredibly, he still dared to face it!

AG turned aside his body with the same stunned expression on his face while watching the scene in the sky. Manasi was gritting his teeth while staring at Garen as though he was looking at a dead man.

At this moment, the sky flashed a bright light. A knife-like white light traveled across the giant’s ring.

Garen had traveled across the ring in the blink of an eye and appeared at the back of the giant’s arm and stopped in mid-air.

He stretched his body and paused for a moment before falling straight down.

Ah!!!

The giant let out a roar.

Boom!!

There was an explosion on the arm that was holding the ring. A yellow gas spread everywhere but the arm itself was not broken from the explosion.

The giant seemed to be furious. The rest of his arms came crashing from different directions towards Garen. All the different weapons started their effects and shined with crimson light.

Five crimson lights combined and formed a giant crimson hand before pressing on Garen.

Peng peng peng peng!!! Weng weng....

The sound of explosions occurred continuously and overlapped with one another. In the end, only a buzzing sound could be heard. Intense tremors spread out in all directions.

The three-headed giant’s six hands displayed a terrifying speed and left afterimages. They waved numerous times and seemed as though it became hundreds and thousands of arms, just like Thousand Hands Guan Yin.

The huge crimson hand shone with bloody red light and came crashing down on Garen like a towering pillar.

Boom!!!!!

The terrifying shockwaves had made the surrounding trees collapsed. Nasira and the others had no choice but to retreat further but were still affected by the shockwaves.

“Fourth star!!”

In an instant, a clear voice traveled through the air, calmed down the shockwaves and spread in every direction.

The voice sounded cool and calm with a tinge of viciousness.

It was Garen!
