Chapter 3574: Return

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Tiger Venerable watched the two leave the Great Hall. He lightly tapped the back of his chair with his fingers and frowned. "Versailles, where was Fang Heng? He did not come to see me?"

"Yes."

Versailles nodded. "After returning to Trial Island to collect the dimensional crystal, Fang Heng left again shortly afterward. His whereabouts were currently unknown."

"Oh?"

Tiger Venerable became somewhat curious.

He had originally intended to use the battle between the two to properly motivate them, then take the opportunity to give them some guidance so they could raise their Tier once more before the trial began.

Yet Fang Heng had run off?

Now it seemed that the boy Fang Heng might have his own channel for seeking Strength.

Forget it.

At least Gideon now had a goal to strive for.

Tiger Venerable did not bother thinking further. He waved his hand, signaling Versailles to withdraw, and continued closing his eyes to concentrate on cultivating his consciousness.

"Go. Keep an eye on some of the God Clan. Report to me if anything happens."

"Yes, Tiger Venerable!"

...

Endless Domain.

Within the galaxy, on a solitary island occupied by the Ouroboros swarm.

At the center of the island, Zane’s believers surrounded the ritual magic array pattern, summoning the descent of an Evil God.

As a mass of Black Fog condensed at the center of the magic array, nearly a month later, Fang Heng and the other once again arrived in the Endless Domain through the ritual summoning.

Most of the previously occupied Ouroboros domain had already been cleared away, with only scattered remnants remaining along the periphery of the Endless Domain.

This time, Fang Heng had come to the Endless Domain mainly to handle two urgent matters.

First, to deal with the remaining four Evil Gods in the Endless Domain and seize back all of the Void Abomination’s Origin Power for absorption and refinement.

Second, to find a way to teleport the Origin Orb back to the game world and place it into the altar’s orb slot.

Finish things quickly, then return to the Martial Apex Tournament to grind Skill and academic experience.

"Sir Beetle King."

The insect attendant Camu stepped forward to report, "During this period, we followed your instructions and retreated along the edge of the Endless Domain. We were attacked by several Evil God clones, but we chose to avoid them. At present, we do not have a clear understanding of the situation of the Evil Gods."

"It did not matter. Withdraw for now."

"Yes."

Camu respectfully stepped aside.

Fang Heng looked at Zane and nodded. "Let’s find Pena and ask about the situation."

Zane nodded, took out a crystal from his pocket, and tossed it into the ritual magic array nearby.

As the believers chanted in waves, a mass of dark mist appeared in midair.

Pena slowly reformed from the dark mist. When she saw Fang Heng and Zane appear before her, her expression changed several times in an instant.

"What? How did you..."

"Hehe, Pena, long time no see. How had things been recently?"

"Weren’t you sealed?"

Pena’s eyes were filled with astonishment.

Previously, she had only known that the five Kings of Gods had set a trap to deal with Fang Heng and Zane. After learning the news, she had taken a great risk to warn the two.

She had not expected that in the end, Fang Heng and Zane still failed to avoid the trap.

From the God of Eternal Silence, she learned that only four Kings of Gods left the land of the rift in the end. The Blood Prison Evil God, Fang Heng, and Zane had been permanently sealed.

After that incident, Pena immediately kept a low profile, grateful that the Evil Gods had not discovered her betrayal.

She had never expected that after not seeing them for a while, Fang Heng and Zane would appear before her completely unharmed.

For a moment, Pena was stunned. Several thoughts flashed through her mind.

They had escaped from the seal?

How had they done it?

And what about the Blood Prison Evil God?

Had it also escaped?

"Hah, did you think that kind of seal could restrict us? Don’t joke around. We were just playing along with them."

Zane casually waved his hand, a trace of killing intent appearing in his eyes. "Pena, it was time to settle accounts. How had those Evil Gods been during this time? By now, they should have completely absorbed the Void Abomination’s Strength, right?"

"Even at a time like this, you still spoke without restraint."

Pena felt helpless.

She and Zane were old friends and were familiar with his temperament.

She felt that Zane simply did not want to admit that he had been outplayed by the four Evil Gods.

Still, the fact that the two had escaped from a seal jointly set by the four Evil Gods showed some real ability.

"Unfortunately, if you had come to me half a month earlier, there might still have been a chance. But now it was too late. To speak frankly, before the God of Decay notices your existence, you had better leave immediately."

"Run? Why run?"

"The God of Decay’s rate of strength increase exceeded everyone’s expectations. He was no longer an existence we could face. Escaping now was the best choice for you."

Fang Heng said, "What did you mean? What had happened during this time?"

Pena closed her eyes, recalling the scenes that had occurred during this period. After calming herself, she opened her eyes and continued.

"Fine. I will start from the beginning."

"After you were sealed, the four Evil Gods each entered seclusion to absorb the Void Abomination’s Strength."

"Originally, everything should have returned to calm during this period. But ten days ago, the God of Decay suddenly ended his seclusion early and then launched a surprise attack on the God of Madness, who was still in secluded cultivation."

"Rumors in the Outer World said that the God of Decay killed the God of Madness and obtained the portion of the Void Abomination’s Strength that belonged to him."

"After that, the God of Decay entered seclusion once more."

"On the following day, after learning of this matter, my lord and the God of Final Filth were greatly enraged. They were also worried that once the God of Decay absorbed the Void Abomination’s Strength, his power would rise dramatically again, and he would make a move against them next. So they decided to act first. In private, they joined forces to locate the God of Decay’s seclusion site and launched a joint surprise attack."

Zane grew excited as well and pressed, "And then? Did they succeed?"

"They failed."

"What? Failed? How could that be?"

"I learned from my lord that the location of the God of Decay’s seclusion had been deliberately leaked by him."

Pena gently shook her head. "The God of Decay had been prepared in advance. During the battle, he severely injured my lord and the God of Final Filth."

"What?"

Zane opened his mouth, then frowned deeply. "That’s not right. The God of Decay did not have time to absorb and digest the God of Madness’s Strength. All three had the same amount of time to absorb the Void Abomination’s Strength. The God of Eternal Silence and the God of Final Filth together still could not defeat him alone?"

"Because of Malevolence."

"Hm?"

"My lord said that when the four Evil Gods absorbed the Void Abomination’s Strength, they each obtained a portion of special memories or Strength."

"When the God of Decay absorbed the Void Abomination’s strength, he unexpectedly obtained the power of Malevolence. This strength greatly enhanced him. If my lord had not immediately realized something was wrong and retreated at once, the two of them might also have died at the hands of the God of Decay."
