Volume 1: Frost Star City Chapter 108 The Twelve Gods Tribe
Su Dong's eyes were as firm as iron, his face slightly ferocious.
Facing this black python's extremely fast attack, Su Dong chose the most dangerous and effective way of fighting without hesitation!
"You won't let me focus on crafting artifacts, I'll kill you today and turn you into an artifact!" Su Dong bellowed with bloodshot eyes.
At this moment, Hei Jiao has approached Su Dong extremely closely, his sharp white teeth almost sticking to Su Dong's face! The situation is critical!
There is indeed a saying that "the later the better" in battle, but the timing of Su Dong's counterattack was too late! Even if Su Dong could hit Heizhen, Heizhen's huge inertia would have guided him to hit Su Dong like a missile.
Azure falls, yellow springs!
Rumble rumble ~ The fierce battle with no room for retreat, only to see Su Dong's six-edged snowflake hammer ruthlessly smashing onto the black python's head!
The Black Python's body is enormous, its impact force is huge, but Su Dong's spiritual power is the only one in the world, possessing the power to tear everything apart!
The black python crashed into Su Dong's spiritual soldier, just like crashing into an iron plate! The entire body quickly contracted and then exploded segment by segment!
Before dying, the black python let out a mournful cry, but unfortunately its voice was only half emitted before being stifled by Su Dong's heavy blow!
"What a ferocious and unreasonable attack!" Huan Yu was taken aback, seeing Hei Jiao being torn to shreds, she thought to herself.
Although Su Dong's moves looked a bit clumsy, Huan Yu, as a very experienced warrior, saw some tricks in this clumsiness.
On the surface, Su Dong remained unchanged in response to all changes. Since Hei Jiao was fast, he would wait for it to get close and then deliver a fatal blow when it could no longer be avoided.
Timing is not something that everyone can grasp, either through years of practice and combat to cultivate extremely high timing ability, or with a strong nervous system, making judgments in an instant and executing a finishing move.
There is no doubt that Su Dong belongs to the latter, his fighting nerves are naturally well-developed!
Moreover, Su Dong's feet were constantly making micro-adjustments, the Nineteenth Step of the Ling Beast clan's footwork was used by Su Dong with such mastery and innovation that it was something many warriors could not achieve.
The black python was dead, its body shattered into countless segments, as if it had been thrown into a meat grinder and minced.
Su Dong let out a sigh and walked over to kick the black python's head with his foot, saying: "What a pity, this skin should be able to sell for quite a bit of money, and the bones should also be worth a pretty penny, shouldn't they?"
Xuan Yu was immediately speechless, Su Dong's nerves were really thick enough. Just now, the situation was precarious, and in the blink of an eye, he actually started to regret losing his property again! What is this?
"Never mind this thing," said Huan Yu in a low voice. "It's just a sea beast, even if it's valuable, it won't be too exaggerated. Besides, you're not short of money, think about how to leave the island instead."
Su Dong didn't speak, but instead squatted down and became busy, the black jiao was a powerful sea creature, its scales standing upright on its body sparked great interest in Su Dong, and its two emerald green eyes were also very special.
Before long, Su Dong took a dozen or so scales from the body of the black python. These scales were diamond-shaped and dull black in color, as light as feathers, but incredibly hard.
Black python is a cruel sea beast, and its grade is not bad either. These scales are good materials for making magic instruments, but unfortunately, Su Dong's attack was too violent, and the black python was completely destroyed. Only a dozen or so intact scales were left, and the two blue eyes were blown to smithereens.
The solitary island and the ancient city of Benin were eerily quiet, as if Su Dong had killed the black python, triggering some sort of change on the island, and that terrifying aura was slowly fading away from the isolated island.
"It's strange, this isolated island was originally a dead land, but now it has moved to a living land? The Feng Shui has been changed." Su Dong observed his surroundings and said to himself in his heart.
The change in Feng Shui is not a good thing for Su Dong, originally he was planning to collect the evil spirits on this isolated island and create a second set of killing artifacts, but now that the evil spirits are starting to disperse, Su Dong's plan to create a powerful artifact also falls through.
Furrowing his brow, Su Dong began to retrieve his own artifact, Peeling Twelve Knives.
Walking to the very center of the abandoned city, where the Dharma Vessel's Bone Nailing Position originally was, Su Dong suddenly stood still in his tracks.
At some point, the circular square in the center of the city collapsed, revealing a vertical staircase leading down. The Great Bone Spike also fell into this pit.
"Qimen secret skill, withdraw!"
Su Dong let out a low hum, and a black light shadow shot out from the bottom of the cave, returning the Bone-Piercing Nail to Su Dong's hand.
The law enforcement agency has spirituality, is controlled by Su Dong, and naturally cannot be lost. However, Su Dong has a strong interest in this collapsed cave, which is on an island. If you follow the cave down, you will enter below sea level.
Look at this old escalator, made of metal, with a smooth surface. It seems that it was used frequently by many people for a long time. I wonder what's underneath?
Fantasy Rain Road: "Just now that black python crashed into this isolated island, causing it to shake violently. Perhaps it was because of this that the cave of the Benning clan was revealed."
Su Dong nodded slightly, Bei Ning was a very mysterious race, known for producing prophets.
Logically, such a powerful race should not be easily discarded by the mainland's history, but in fact, people only know that the Benning tribe has prophets, and there is little understanding of anything else.
"Let's go and take a look." Su Dong said in a low voice.
Along the circular staircase down to the cave floor, Su Dong lit a torch and saw that it was empty here, with more murals on the walls.
Because the upper layer is sealed off from air and moisture, the murals here are relatively intact and it's easy to make out those colorful patterns.
"Oh, so it seems that the Bei Ning clan has been secretly recording the matters of the ancient gods here." Huan Yu said after looking around.
"Old god?" Su Dong asked in puzzlement.
"Yes, legend has it that all the gods, including the Ice God, emerged from the Great Snow Mountain under Tian Mu. Before they entered the mainland, there was an old god on the mainland called Creation."
Later, the gods drove away the demons and imprisoned the old creation god of this continent, becoming the orthodox faction of the mainland, no longer allowing the people to sing praises to their old gods.
"It seems that the Benning clan still remembers the old gods of the mainland, they dare not openly confront the gods, so they can only build an altar underground, using paintings and prayers to pray for blessings from the creation god." Xiang Yu explained.
Su Dong nodded slightly, these legends weren't hard to understand, the winner is king and the loser is a bandit, after all. The gods of light won, so both demons and old gods were eradicated from the mainland.
Time and time again, Su Dong saw these legends and deeds about the gods, his mindset began to undergo a subtle change, he started to feel that behind the wall of the gods, perhaps there really were divine spirits living there.
Su Dong was very interested in observing these murals. The Benning tribe worshipped the old gods, and naturally portrayed him as tall and powerful.
In the mural, the creator god guides humans in practicing martial arts, planting crops, and even helps people build houses.
Among them, there was a detail that made Su Dong feel very interesting. With the help of the Creation God, each warrior would get his own destined star.
"Does every warrior have a destined star? Is that possible? I saw someone with a destined star last time, and when it appeared, his combat power skyrocketed by several times. If everyone had a destined star, that would be too terrifying."
"On the mainland, I've only seen that one guy with a Benming Star. Although there are many people with Benming Stars in the Divine Martial Battlefield, it's located in the Eastern Sea Thousand Islands and can't be counted as part of the mainland."
Xuan Yu let out a deep breath and said in a low voice, "There are some things that you will eventually find out anyway, so I might as well tell you now. In fact, every warrior should have had their own natal star, but the gods didn't like their warriors to be too powerful, so they used methods we can't understand to change the situation."
"These are all told by the Ice God, he was once very worried, letting the vast majority of warriors have no innate stars, greatly reducing their combat power, and it's also unfair, warriors without innate stars will never be a match for the destined warriors."
Su Dong felt surprised that the gods had actually deprived warriors of their right to have a Benming Star? To solidify one's own position, such an act was undoubtedly selfish.
Su Dong suddenly thought of a question and curiously asked, "You always talk about gods, what's the difference between these so-called gods and ordinary people? Do they also have their own birth stars?"
Xuanyu Dao: "Yes, all gods have their own natal stars, at least three. In the past, there was a saying that if one didn't have an extraordinary natal star, they couldn't be called a god. This refers to the fact that all gods have very powerful natal stars."
"As for the difference between gods and mortals, it's already huge. You're now close to a divine being, ordinary people are just ants in your eyes, and in the eyes of the gods, you're no different."
Su Dong shrugged and continued walking forward, ahead was the place where the Benning tribe secretly worshipped their old gods. The large hall had a sculpture of the creation god, and the walls around it were adorned with more murals.
But here the murals are completely different from what I saw before, and more of those strange-looking blind men appear in the picture, who are actually the prophets of the Benin tribe.
Su Dong roughly glanced over the content of the story and found out that the Bening tribe was discovered by the creator god to have potential within themselves, guiding them to master the power of prophecy. Each prophet of the Bening tribe had a destined star, personally chosen by the creator god.
But they also paid a heavy price for this, and the Benin people became blind, with every single person in the tribe being blind.
Since then, the Benning tribe has been serving the creation god and is one of the twelve chosen nations known as the Twelve Divine Tribes.
After reading this, Su Dong muttered to himself: "No wonder the Beining clan is so devoted to the old gods, it turns out that the old gods helped them obtain special abilities."
"Gods are always powerful and elusive, as the legend goes, the Creation God was extremely powerful, all the gods had to join forces to suppress him, it's not surprising that he can do such things."
Su Dong smiled slightly, pointing to the divine crown on the Genesis God sculpture: "This thing is exactly the same as the divine crown worn by the Genesis God in the mural. The Benning tribe really didn't spare any effort for their own god."
Having said that, Su Dong reached out to take the King's Crown on top of the Genesis God, the sculpture was made of stone, but the crown was gold, and it looked very precious. Su Dong had no reason to let this good thing continue to stay in the dark underground.
Psst... Su Dong held the divine crown in his hand, but his face changed greatly, because at the moment the divine crown was removed, the statue of the old god completely collapsed and turned into a pile of dust, scattered on the ground!
Rumble... The once peaceful island began to shake again, a heavy metal door fell eerily, completely sealing Su Dong in the altar!
"Trouble! There's a mechanism!" Yuè Yǔ exclaimed, his voice low and serious.
