Starting from primitive world, building the strongest divine kingdom

Chapter 271: Chapter271:Magical Transformation

Daphne gradually walked towards Enzo.

As she drew closer, the others slowly faded away.

This made Enzo sense something strang.The Daphne before him seemed a bit different—not entirely an illusion, but stemming from a special connection rooted in blood.

Moreover, when she got close, Daphne didn't say a word.

She simply sat beside Enzo like an emotionless puppet, yet Enzo could clearly feel a wave emanating from her abdomen.

It felt incredibly intimate!

Enzo realized something and grasped Daphne's hand, wanting to investigate further.

But in the next moment, Daphne vanished.

...

In the Disaster World, the Holy City.

Daphne woke up from her dream, drenched in sweat, and saw Artemis standing nearby. She quickly sat up and respectfully addressed Artemis, "Your Excellency, you've come."

Artemis's expression was indifferent.

She looked at Daphne, her deep pupils hiding a hint of surprise and agitation.

Then she said, "I sensed a wave of intention from little Effie. It seems her thoughts have crossed a considerable distance, landing somewhere in the Starry Sky."

Little Effie was the name of the child in Daphne's womb.

Hearing what Artemis said, Daphne was taken aback and instinctively replied, "But little Effie hasn't even been born yet…"

Artemis shook her head.

In the vast Starry Sky, miracles happen constantly.

Some newborns from certain clans are powerful from the moment they are born, while others possess some form of supernatural power. And little Effie…

Artemis turned to Daphne again and said, "Daphne, we may have underestimated little Effie's talent. Her future is limitless. However, the stronger a being is destined to be, the more energy it needs to absorb. If there's insufficient energy, it could lead to the mother's death. Therefore, for the time being, I will take you to the core of the Disaster World until little Effie is born."

Daphne nodded.

Meanwhile, far away in the Fierce Beast World, Enzo was unaware of all this.

After Daphne and the figures of other loved ones disappeared, no further strange phenomena emerged in the depths of Enzo's consciousness. However, he felt a peculiar wave—a fluctuation of elemental power. It wasn't just one type. It was a simultaneous resonance of thunder, life, and space elements.

This made Enzo realize the presence of something extraordinary, as powerful energy gathered in the palm of his hand, continuously absorbing these three elemental forces, as if nurturing something.

"This seems to be some kind of powerful spell…"

Enzo muttered to himself in confusion.

Furrowing his brow, he regained his clarity and understood what he had been through during this time, as well as Bookstaver's actions. He continued, "The monsters that appeared at first must be the negative effects brought by these crystals. But those things didn't affect me. Instead, they significantly strengthened my mental power. Moreover, they have granted me this unknown spell.

However, to fully condense this unknown spell, I'll need to absorb more crystals."

Thinking this, Enzo exhaled and opened his eyes.

In the small world, upon seeing Enzo awaken, both Bookstaver and Carol, who had been anxiously waiting, were filled with joy. However, to be cautious, Bookstaver asked, "Enzo, do you feel anything amiss?"

"Do you think a mere Elder Deity crystal could affect me?"

Enzo replied, which also served as his answer to Bookstaver's question.

With that, Bookstaver felt completely relieved. The fact that Enzo could speak so confidently indicated that he was not in any trouble. Though he was puzzled about how Enzo had dealt with the contamination from the Elder Deity crystals, now was not the time to focus on that. There was a much larger issue to resolve.

How could they leave?

Although Bookstaver and Carol were in the small world, they were unaware of what was happening outside.

The injury Enzo had suffered must mean that his opponents were incredibly powerful. Rushing outside could very well lead to another devastating blow.

At that point, there would be no more Elder Deity crystals left to help Enzo recover.

Furthermore, the Life Water and Thunder Pool water within the small world were nearly depleted, causing the World Tree to weaken significantly.

All of this needed energy replenishment.

After pondering for a moment, Enzo formed a plan. He said, "I'll first use my shadow state to conceal my presence and take a look outside. If I'm not discovered, I'll leave Ambera City and head to the Blood Ruins. If I am discovered, I'll retreat back into the small world and think of another way, or wait for a better time to try leaving."

After facing Lovins, Enzo had a clear understanding of the power of a low-level deity.

And that was only one of Lovins' avatars.

Engaging with the real Lovins, Enzo didn't even have confidence in safely retreating to his small world.

Therefore, without the ability to truly defend himself, Enzo had no intention of confronting Lovins again. This wasn't an act of cowardice. It would be foolish to recklessly clash with an enemy when aware of one's own shortcomings and having other options available.

This time, luck was on Enzo's side.

Because of him, Lovins ordered a lockdown of the entire city of Ambera.

Guards were stationed everywhere, especially in areas where Enzo had mysteriously disappeared, which were heavily fortified with barriers. However, after several months, the guards had grown somewhat lax. Although Enzo's sudden presence disrupted the established barriers, causing many guards to become alert, they found no signs of anyone else within the barriers and soon lost interest.

This allowed Enzo to breathe a sigh of relief.

He cautiously left the range of the barriers while maintaining his shadowy state, then made his way out of Ambera.

Throughout his journey, no one noticed him.

Once outside the city, and confirming that no one was following him, Enzo immediately used teleportation to leave.

After teleporting a sufficient distance away, Enzo stopped and took out the map given to him by Colombo. Looking at it, he muttered to himself, "The Blood Ruins… are to the north of my current position, not too far. But according to the map, there's a strange blood-colored mist inside the ruins. This mist erodes one's consciousness and causes irregular fluctuations in elemental power."

Noticing these warnings, Enzo's expression changed slightly.

However, he chose not to turn back and instead resolutely headed towards the Blood Ruins.

Before long, Enzo reached the edge of the Blood Ruins.

The crimson mist obscured everything in front of him, creating an unsettling atmosphere. The eerie sounds of terrifying monsters echoed from within, accompanied by the screams of those who had ventured into the ruins, amplifying the overall sense of dread. Despite this, Enzo maintained a calm demeanor and walked straight in.

"Indeed peculiar!" Enzo remarked.

"This blood-colored mist fills one with a desire for slaughter, an urge to destroy everything. However, it's nothing compared to what I've faced before. I can almost ignore the effects of this mist."

As he stepped deeper into the Blood Ruins and sensed the strangeness of the mist, Enzo shook his head slightly.

His willpower was unwavering, and he was hardly affected by the bizarre crimson fog as he steadfastly made his way toward the heart of the ruins.

To his surprise, the deeper he went, the thinner the blood-colored mist became.

It seemed that the dense blood-colored mist in the outer layer was specifically designed to filter out those with weak willpower, which made Enzo feel a sense of unease.

However, he didn't have the time to ponder this now.

He stood atop a tall, withered tree, gazing at the vast Blood Ruins before him, utterly astonished.

Towering peaks, endless wastelands, and miasma-filled swamps… The sheer scale of the Blood Ruins exceeded Enzo's imagination. It felt more like a place isolated from the world, untouched by human presence, with no signs of ruins. The mountains had an oddly shaped appearance, as if meticulously carved by sharp blades, stacked in layers.

Scattered throughout the wasteland were numerous massive stones, haphazardly strewn about.

In the swamp, parts of some peculiar buildings emerged, giving a hint of ruin-like characteristics.

However, all these places shared one common feature.

They were all drenched in blood red.

At the same time, Enzo noticed another detail and murmured to himself, "No, the blood-red mist hasn't diminished. It has been refined!"

His eyes sparkled as he sensed a unique presence in the air.

This aura was strange, not belonging to any of the mental, elemental, or sanguine forces he knew. It could effortlessly bypass any barrier to enter his body but was difficult to absorb, capable of leaving his body at any moment.

During this constant process of entering and exiting, Enzo felt a surge of power.

It was not just physical strength, but a comprehensive enhancement of his soul, body, and the elements.

"What is this?"

Enzo wondered, filled with curiosity.

He had a strong premonition that if he could uncover the truth behind this energy, it might bring him significant benefits.

With this thought, desire filled his heart.

After sensing for a moment, he turned his gaze towards a nearby forest, his eyes sharpening like those of a hawk. "The energy is most intense in that forest! Perhaps there will be a discovery there."

With that, Enzo dashed forward.

"Is there really no one here?"

Once he entered, he found the forest eerily quiet, with not even the sound of insects or birds.

At that moment, he felt a remarkable change.

The energy surged into his body like a tide, then receded like a wave, yet after being washed by this energy, his strength increased rapidly.

Just then, Enzo's expression turned cold.
