Chapter 1246 - 1246 A Reversal

1246 A Reversal

The huge tentacle that extended from the alchemy magic array sensed something. It slowly left the enlightenment stone replicas and returned to the magic array.

A moment later, the ground returned to its calm state.

“Are you alright?”

Tang Mingyue stepped forward and helped Fang Heng up. The blood and tears flowing from his right eye made him look very bad.

“I’m fine, I’m fine.”

Fang Heng said as he wiped off the blood from the corner of his eyes.

It only looked a little scary on the outside, but there was actually no damage.

The spiritual power and life force consumed by controlling the alchemy eyes were not instantly deducted but passed away slowly.

With the undying body’s HP recovery effect, he could completely ignore the loss of HP.

Fang Heng took the lead to walk forward and observe.

There were a lot of carts on the ground in front of him, and there were still a lot of unused enlightenment stone replicas in them.

There were also three huge black enlightenment stones piled up on the right side.

It was much bigger than all the enlightenment stones he had found before combined!

If he were to bring so many of them back for the sacred tree to devour…

Did he strike it rich?

Fang Heng walked forward and tried to touch the enlightenment stone with his hand. He immediately frowned.

Warren walked to Fang Heng’s side and said, “The energy in the enlightenment stone has been absorbed.”

“Yes.”

Fang Heng nodded and looked disappointed.

Just like the enlightenment stone they had found at the bottom of the lake, this stone only looked big on the surface, but the energy contained in it had been mostly absorbed.

The remaining energy was about the same as a palm-sized enlightenment stone.

If he spent more effort to bring them back…

It was of no use, but it was a pity to throw them away.

“Let’s go and take a look at the round platform.”

Fang Heng strode forward and went up the steps in front to explore.

The round platform had a diameter of about twenty meters, and the edges of the platform were engraved with a magic array. In the center of the platform was a black entrance that led to the bottom.

Fang Heng walked to the center and stood in front of the entrance to observe.

The diameter of the entrance was less than one meter. Looking down from the edge of the entrance, all he could see was darkness.

He couldn’t see the end of it.

Warren stood beside Fang Heng with a serious expression and said, “You must be careful. I can sense a very strong fluctuation of the demonic seed’s power inside.”

“Yes.”

Fang Heng agreed and tried to take out a high-energy crystal ore from his backpack, throwing it down the hole.

The crystal fell and was quickly swallowed by the darkness below, completely disappearing from sight without a sound.

Seeing this, Sandy could not help but swallow his saliva and asked softly, “No way. Could this place be one of the entrances to the endless abyss? I remember that there should only be one entrance near the Imperial City.”

“Hmm, not necessarily.”

Warren looked up and said, “This is a spatial magic array. I think the original devouring body should be sealed under it.”

Everyone subconsciously raised their heads and followed Warren’s gaze.

A large alchemy magic array appeared on the ceiling!

The fine lines inside the magic array indicated its level.

At the same time, several game prompts appeared on his retina.

[Hint: You have discovered the sealed land of an unknown life form. The completion rate of your mission-underground palace exploration has increased by 100%. Your underground palace exploration rate has reached 300%. You have triggered an additional reward mission-unknown raised life form.]

[Hint: The player team has triggered the additional mission reward-unknown life form.]

Mission title: Unknown life form.

Mission difficulty: A-SS.

Mission description: You have discovered an unknown life form that Salvador is raising in the underground palace.

Mission requirement: Release/investigate/kill the unknown life form that Salvador is rearing.

Time remaining: 56 minutes 26 seconds.

Current mission completion rate: 0%

Mission reward: ??? (When the time is up, the system will calculate the reward based on the completion level.)

An additional triggered side reward mission!

Fang Heng’s heart skipped a beat. He quickly took a look at the underground palace exploration mission and found that the remaining time limit of both missions was the same.

And from the mission description, there were many ways to complete the mission.

According to the difficulty classification, choosing to kill the unknown life form would give the highest level of reward, but only releasing the unknown life form would only guarantee a minimum reward.

There was no doubt that it was extremely dangerous to explore the depths of the abyss under the current circumstances.

If an unknown life form was released…

Fang Heng couldn’t help squinting his eyes.

Releasing it was currently the simplest choice. It didn’t require much control. He just had to destroy the main seal on the ceiling. When the time came, he could try to destroy it head-on.

Run if you can’t win.

After all, the Empire would help them clean up their mess.

Wu Shijiang was also looking at the mission notifications. Just as he was about to go offline and discuss with his think tank to make the best decision, a red game notification suddenly appeared on his retina.

[Hint: The emergency button of the player’s gaming cabin has been touched. The player can choose to enter the nearest safe area to go offline. If the player is in a non-safe area, there will be great risks.]

Not good!

This was the emergency signal he used to contact Li Xue’s team!

Wu Shijiang’s expression suddenly changed as he immediately looked up at the crowd and said, “Your Highness Mingyue, Lord Fang Heng, the Empire’s people have already discovered the abnormality of the Hall of Divine Martial Arts. They have already broken through the outer perimeter of the Hall of Divine Martial Arts and are chasing after us!”

Fang Heng shrugged his shoulders and looked at the crowd. His tone was slightly helpless as he said, “It seems that we have no choice.”

First, he would release the original devouring body and then he would assess the situation.

“Yes.” After cooperating for so long, Tang Mingyue and Mo Jiawei understood Fang Heng’s intention without saying it out loud. They nodded in unison and said, “Hurry up and do it.”

Fang Heng raised his head and looked at the magic array above.

The alchemy pupil in his right eye was spinning rapidly!

The alchemy magic array that had been slowly rotating on the ceiling was affected. It gradually stopped, then slowly turned in the opposite direction, and even began to spin rapidly!

“Bang!”

The alchemy magic array on the ceiling exploded!

“BOOM! Boom Boom Boom!!!”

A heavy, muffled sound came from under everyone’s feet!

Fang Heng squinted his eyes as if he had a bad premonition.

“Not good, retreat!”

After saying that, Fang Heng led everyone to retreat backward quickly!

….

In the underground palace, the commander of the royal guards, Xiao Yun, led the team and advanced quickly through the underground palace.

Not long ago, after receiving an emergency report that the Empire’s inner city was under attack, he temporarily stopped the attack on the Land of Plague and returned to the Empire with a few high-level elites of the royal guards.

At the same time, the Empire’s sword saint Rio Tinto was also with the reinforcement team.

There was a long and narrow wound on Rio Tinto’s arm, which had just undergone emergency treatment and was simply bandaged.

Previously, he had been attracted by the Tier 2 barbarians who had invaded the Empire’s Imperial City. It had taken him some effort to resist the barbarians.

Till now, Rio Tinto was still a little shocked.

Compared to the last time they had met, Wangnet’s strength had increased yet again. He had misjudged his opponent’s strength and had accidentally injured his arm.
