Chapter 364
Evil Creature
After Zhuo Wen's explanation, Priest Qiushui and the others finally came to an understanding. They knew that the young man before them possessed the strength to break through the confinement formation, so killing them would be as easy as blowing off dust.
Priest Qiushui forcefully propped herself up and bowed slightly. Her tone was apologetic as she said, "We were rude just now. Please forgive us, Young Master Zhuo!"
The other three priests didn't dare be disrespectful. Although they were injured, they still bowed to Zhuo Wen. The young man before them was really too powerful. They didn't dare offend him in the slightest. Otherwise, it was very likely that they would lose their lives.
Since the four High Priests had bowed so respectfully, Aamir and the others naturally did not dare to be negligent. They also bowed to Zhuowen with reverence. The strength that Zhuowen had displayed earlier had indeed convinced Aamir and the others.
Whoosh!
Zhuowen took out four healing pills from his Qiankun Bag. With a flick of his finger, they flew directly into the hands of the four High Priests. He said, "These pills are called Chi Concentration Pills. They are very effective for the injuries on your bodies!
Your injuries were caused by me, so this can be considered as a form of apology! "
Priest Qiushui and the others looked at the pills in their hands in puzzlement. They had never seen any pills on the Sandstone Island, so they were very curious about the black pills in their hands that could heal injuries.
The four of them looked at each other. After a moment of hesitation, they swallowed the pills in their hands. They believed that with Zhuowen's strength, there was no need for him to play dirty with them.
The moment the medicinal pills entered their stomachs, they turned into a warm current that swam within their bodies. Very quickly, it spread to their limbs and bones. Wherever this warm current passed, they were pleasantly surprised to discover that most of the originally serious injuries on their bodies had actually healed.
"Young Master Zhuo!
This pill … "
Priest Qiushui and the others could not help but narrow their eyes when they sensed the miraculous effects of the Qi Gathering Pills. Joy immediately appeared on their faces. The Qi Gathering Pills that Zhuo Wen had provided were just too miraculous. In just a short moment, most of their injuries had healed. As long as they recuperated for a few more days, their injuries would be completely healed very quickly.
"Thank you, Young Master Zhuo!"
Sensing that more than half of their injuries had been healed, Priest Qiushui and the other three bowed deeply to Zhuowen once again in gratitude. This time, they were truly convinced.
"There's no need to be so polite!
I also have some things to ask you. When the time comes, I hope you won't refuse! "Zhuowen flicked his sleeves and said with a faint smile.
Priest Qiushui and the other three looked at each other and said respectfully, "If there's anything, Young Master Zhuo, please ask away!"
Nodding slightly, Zhuo Wen asked the four about the situation of this sandstone island. Priest Qiushui and the other three also told him everything they knew without holding back.
After talking for about an hour, Zhuowen finally had a general understanding of the sandstone island.
The sandstone island was extremely vast. Just the island alone was probably not inferior to a commandery of the Qing Xuan Empire. However, the ancient survivors living on the island were extremely rare.
These ancient survivors called themselves the Bereaved Clan. Just as Blackie had guessed, these Bereaved Clan did not know how to use the Origin Energy of Heaven and Earth at all. They basically relied on their physical strength and physical strength to engage in extremely barbaric melee combat.
Of course, these Vestigial Tribe warriors were also divided into different grades. They were Bronze Warriors, Silver Warriors, Gold Warriors, and Legendary Warriors. The standard for a Bronze Warrior was 65,555 Jin of strength, a Silver Warrior was 655,555 Jin of strength, a Gold Warrior was 055,555 Jin of strength, and a Legendary Warrior was 6,555,555 Jin of strength.
It was said that legendary warriors had the strength to dominate the entire island. They could tear apart mountains with just a wave of their hand, and they could even fight dragons with their bare hands. However, warriors of this level were basically legends. They had not appeared on the sandstone island for a long time. Even the Lord of the Sacred City was only a gold warrior.
When they heard that the warriors of the sandstone island could reach hundreds of thousands of pounds of strength just by relying on their strength, Zhuowen and the others were really shocked. They could not imagine that without relying on the yuan energy of heaven and earth, they could reach hundreds of thousands of pounds of strength just by relying on their physical strength. This was simply inconceivable.
Even if Zhuowen practiced the sixth level of the Jade Stone Body Tempering Technique, his physical strength was probably only tens of thousands of pounds, which was equivalent to the bronze warriors here. Of course, if Zhuowen could practice to the seventh level, it should not be a problem for him to reach hundreds of thousands of pounds of strength.
In addition to the warriors who possessed monstrous strength, the Lost Race also had the noble existence of the Priests. However, the Priests didn't possess as much strength as the warriors. In fact, they were somewhat weak. However, each of these Priests had mastered an exquisite magic formula. They could use the world's essence to construct a powerful magic formula.
The array constructed by the priests was extremely troublesome for some powerful warriors. Therefore, the status of the priests on the sandstone island was similar to the status of the arcanists in the outside world. Although their fighting strength was not high, their role was much greater than that of the warriors.
Moreover, the Lost Clan on the sandstone island were basically scattered in various regions in the form of tribes. In the center of the island sat an extremely magnificent city, which the Lost Clan named the Sacred City.
The Sacred City was extremely prosperous, and there were many experts living in it. There were two masters of the Sacred City, the Sacred City Lord and the Saintess. The Sacred City Lord was the supreme leader of the warriors, and the Saintess was the supreme leader of the priests. The two jointly managed the Sacred City, which was well managed, and it became a sacred place in the hearts of all the Lost Clan.
When they heard about the Sacred City, Zhuowen's eyes flashed. He exchanged a glance with Gu Xin and Hu Wuying. They knew that the control center of this island was probably located in the Sacred City.
"Do you know the location of the Sacred City?
The purpose of our trip is the Sacred City! "After thinking for a while, Zhuowen looked at Priest Qiushui with bright eyes.
Being stared at by Zhuowen, Priest Qiushui's heart could not help but tremble. A rare blush appeared on her charming face, and she said hesitantly, "I know the location of the Sacred City, but our Qingshui tribe is hundreds of thousands of miles away from the Sacred City. Even if we take the Ascension Boat, I'm afraid it will take a year."
"Hundreds of thousands of miles?
It's actually that far? "
Zhuowen frowned. He did not expect the Sacred City to be so far away from here. Even if he used the Azure Boat to travel all the time, it would take ten days to half a month. This was too slow. By the time they arrived at the Sacred City, the control center of the island would have already been occupied by the other teams!
"Do you all take a year to get to the Sacred City by Ascension Boat?
Is there no faster way? "Zhuowen could not help but ask.
"Our Qingshui tribe originally had a space-time array. That space-time array could instantly teleport us to the nearest tribe to the Sacred City. At that time, it would only take half a day to reach the Sacred City. Unfortunately, our tribe's space-time array has been completely exhausted. Without the support of energy, we cannot teleport anyone." Priest Qiushui sighed.
"Space-time array?"
Zhuowen's eyes flashed when he heard about the space-time array. Although the ancient remnant people's cultivation was extremely backward, they were much stronger than the outside world in terms of arrays. They could even create a long-distance teleportation array. One must know that such an array was rare even in the Qing Xuan Empire. Looking at Priest Qiushui's expression, it seemed like the space-time array was not that precious.
"Since your Qingshui tribe has a space-time array, then it's easy!
However, what is the source of energy for the space-time array?
Perhaps I can help you find it! "Zhuowen smiled.
When Priest Qiushui and the other three heard this, they could not help but look at each other with strange expressions on their faces.
"What's wrong?
Is there a problem? "Zhuowen could not help but frown when he saw the expressions of the four.
"Actually, the space-time array needs energy from a type of ore called the Green Crystal Jade!
This ore vein is located at the place where the evil creature is located in the sealed land!
In the past, because of the sealing stone tablet, our Qingshui tribe would go there to mine every once in a while!
However, now that the sealing stone tablet has been broken … "
Saying this, Priest Qiushui stole a glance at Zhuo Wen, and her expression immediately dimmed. She knew that the seal of the sealed land had been broken, and the evil creature below was probably gradually awakening. Going to the mine now was simply courting death.
After seriously sizing up Priest Qiushui and confirming that she was not lying, Zhuowen could not help but frown, "It's actually under the sealed land?"
Originally, Zhuowen did not want to come into contact with the evil creature. However, it seemed like things were really going against his wishes. Now, he had to hurry to the Holy City and could only rely on the space-time array.
"You said that your Lord of the Holy City is a Gold Warrior with a strength of more than five hundred thousand catties. Then, can the Lord of the Holy City be a match for the evil creature?" Zhuowen suddenly asked after pondering for a moment.
"The Lord of the Holy City is the strongest person on the Sandstone Island. The evil creature that our Qingshui tribe is in charge of in this area is not the strongest one. Therefore, the evil creature should not be a match for the Lord of the Holy City." Priest Qiushui bit her lips and said.
"Oh?
So it's not as strong as the Lord of the Holy City! "
Hearing this, Zhuowen heaved a sigh of relief. According to Zhuowen's estimation, the Lord of the Holy City's strength was around the half-step Ultimate Emperor Realm. This was because the half-step Ultimate Emperor Realm relied on the Yuan Qi in their bodies to unleash more than five hundred thousand catties of strength. Therefore, the two of them were about the same.
Since the evil creature was even weaker than the Lord of the Holy City, Zhuowen had no more misgivings in his heart!
Awoo!
At this moment, a ferocious roar suddenly whistled out from the depths of the sealed land. The earth suddenly trembled violently and countless yellow sand billowed out like a monstrous wave, wreaking havoc in an area of several thousand li.
