Chapter 383: Awkward Convergence (2)

Amidst the ruins of the ancient city, the figures of Lu Heng and Xiao Ai flickered ceaselessly.

They hurriedly dashed through the city, departing from one street after another, arriving at various neighborhoods, some unfamiliar, some familiar.

However, this time Lu Heng and his companions dashed through the city for half an hour, shuttling nearly ten thousand times. Not to mention encountering the group of wicked demons again, they hadn't even caught a glimpse of the figures of Lian Cangqing and Ao Tianxing.

After the nine thousand, seven hundred, and sixty-seventh relocation, Lu Heng suddenly came to a stop, no longer proceeding forward.

Noticing the Wolf God coming to a halt, Xiao Ai by his side expressed slight surprise, saying, "Wolf God..."

Lu Heng, however, furrowed his brow and raised his hand, gesturing for her to stay silent.

The street where they currently stood was a long street that had already descended three times before.

At the same time, it was also the street where Xiao Ai had previously attempted to break down a door but failed to open the door to the roadside house.

Lu Heng stood before the doorway that had been violently pounded by Xiao Ai earlier, observing the door that was now covered in dark red protrusions, unsettlingly resembling the innards of an animal, and he spoke slowly.

"The speed of the seal breaking is continuously accelerating..."

On the front of the door, there were originally numerous dark red mosses, but they were all shattered by Xiao Ai earlier.

However, the bare door is now covered in dark red flesh buds. Since the buds are short, from a distance, it still doesn't appear strange. But upon closer inspection, one can vaguely sense the entire door... and even the entire wall subtly pulsating in silence.

Resembling convulsing animal viscera.

Lu Heng and the others were no longer standing within a dilapidated ancient city, but rather, it felt as if they were standing within the abdomen of a repulsive creature. The dirt road beneath their feet was no longer cold and rigid, but instead, it began to feel slightly warm and supple.

It seems that even the dirt road, which connects one block after another, is silently undergoing a transformation towards resembling internal organs.

Lu Heng said, "It's those evil creatures... Within this half an hour, those evil creatures must have obtained a considerable number of the Sword Formations, thus causing the seal to break faster and faster."

Lu Heng's brow furrowed tightly.

Because this speed is abnormally fast.Nêww chapters will be fully updated at (n)ov(e)l/bin(.)com

Previously, those evil creatures were also wandering within the city, but their attempts were thwarted by Lu Heng twice. The evil creatures never obtained the Sword Formation.

However, now that half an hour has passed, Lu Heng not only failed to encounter those evil creatures even once, but their pace of breaking the seal also accelerated relentlessly.

In the depths of darkness, it seemed as if something was secretly aiding those evil creatures...

There, an eccentric altar ascended and suspended itself in the air above the city.

The elevated yellowish soil platform on the altar was eerily illuminated by the bloody glow emanating from the filmy blood-hued membrane in the air. Even the figure seated upon the throne appeared increasingly terrifying.

However, what captivated Lu Heng's gaze and rendered it immovable was not the ascending altar nor the figure seated on the throne.

...but rather the colossal bronze cauldron suspended above the altar!

...with various patterns depicting mountains, rivers, birds, beasts, and limitless sentient beings, as well as deities standing atop the clouds, deeply imprinted upon the body of that bronze cauldron.

...while the most striking feature was the two prominent characters, branded onto the base of the bronze cauldron.

"Yu State..."

Lu Heng murmured these two characters, his expression filled with immense astonishment.

While he knew that the figure on the throne shared certain similarities with him, he never expected the similarity to be this-both of them possessed a Nine Provinces cauldron?

Xiao Ai, too, was astounded by the sudden appearance of the colossal cauldron, yet she beheld much more within it.

"The Wolf God!" exclaimed Xiao Ai, as she said, "Wuyou and Wuyu, they are there!"

Xiao Ai's words finally drew Lu Heng's gaze away from the grand cauldron, and it fell upon the altar.

Indeed, at the base of the elevated yellow earth platform in the center of the altar, stood two children - a boy and a girl - with vacant expressions.

Surprisingly, it was the Wuyou and Wuyu siblings who had previously left.

However, "Shen Yuanjun," who had previously been holding the hands of the siblings, was nowhere to be found.

Upon witnessing this scene, Lu Heng swiftly sprung to his feet and flew towards the altar.

Radiant bolts of lightning flashed within the city, illuminating the surroundings as Lu Heng, at last, gained the ability to soar through the sky using his flight technique after the city materialized in reality.

Carrying Xiao Ai across the vast expanse, Lu Heng descended directly into the void outside the altar, addressing the enigmatic figure seated upon the throne.

"Are these siblings the ones you released?" Lu Heng couldn't comprehend.

Why are these malevolent creatures within the city not properly detained, and how could they have started meddling in the outside world and targeting him years ago?

Upon the throne, the figure shook its head and said, "It was not my doing, but the work of the two little demons. However, I have already exterminated them, and now I am taking charge of these two children."

"However, you knowingly confronted these misleading youngsters, despite the danger...the Master of the Green State Cauldron, your foolishness astounds me."
