I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch-Chapter 521 - 489. Are these the super geniuses?
Xia Feng continued his search but didn’t find any more information about the "Holy Relics."
As for the Sumeru Throne,
from the conversation between Master Yusi and Jiang Qiue, it was evident that all the major forces with top combat strength in the Empire were quite concerned about the "Holy Relics" and the "Sumeru Throne."
However, there was no information related to the term "Sumeru Throne" in the internal network of the Black Moon Church.
Fortunately, Xia Feng knew that the Sumeru Throne was actually the ultimate prize of the Life Roulette.
Before he was encircled and attacked at East Victory Fortress, Xia Feng had already transferred all the Player Marks to Yue Hongli, so he could still enter the Life Roulette.
It was just a pity that the Life Roulette had already reached the seventh and final round of hunting.
The seventh round had a seven-month duration, of which five months had passed, leaving only two months remaining.
After this round ended, the person with the highest Life Points would become the winner, gaining the ninth qualification to enter Sumeru Mountain.
Without a doubt, the winner would certainly be Lord Yeli Dong.
Although Xia Feng couldn’t be sure of the exact number of Life Points, Lord Yeli Dong, having orchestrated the schemes with White Emperor City and the Garden, surely had a considerable amount.
But, even though Lord Yeli Dong was already guaranteed to take first place, he previously had Yeli Helian capture several players at East Victory Fortress and forced them to transfer Life Points.
Xia Feng guessed that this might be because Life Points had a use when competing for the Sumeru Throne within Sumeru Mountain.
While Xia Feng was pondering this, Master Yusi’s voice rang out again.
"Teacher, to tell the truth, if our purpose in entering Beiqiu Abyss is to find clues to the location of the ’Holy Relics,’ wouldn’t it be better to send Olivia directly? Why should we risk going in?"
Master Yusi always managed to ask the questions that Xia Feng was curious about too, so he silently pricked up his ears.
Jiang Qiue looked out the car window at the sunrise and slowly turned her head, her beautiful eyes slightly narrowed:
"Within the Beiqiu Abyss lies a Divine Relic of the Nine-tailed Star God; that item is our true objective."
Well, well, it turns out you aim to use the public endeavor for personal gain, Xia Feng thought to himself sarcastically.
But based on their conversation, Jiang Qiue’s goal was likely to be unattainable.
After all, Olivia was a Venerable, and defeating a Spirit Master of the True Martial Realm would be as easy as slicing vegetables for her, not even a competition.
This made Xia Feng feel somewhat disappointed and helpless.
At the moment, he didn’t know how Miss Mu intended to enter the Beiqiu Abyss, but he knew she definitely planned to go in search of the A-grade Spiritual Clothes·Blood Spirit Mechanism; he had originally thought that he could follow Jiang Qiue into the Beiqiu Abyss and find a chance to meet up with Miss Mu.
But now, it seemed incredibly difficult.
"We are here."
Following Master Yusi’s deep voice, Xia Feng looked ahead,
to the east where the sun was just rising, stood a grand and majestic Holy Temple, bathed in the morning glow and radiant with faint golden haloes.
The group quickly approached the temple and, guided by the rainbow light, entered within.
The interior of the temple was like a brand-new world.
With the Black Moon overhead, a huge square gate stood in the center of a vast plaza, 50 meters tall and 10 meters wide.
A pale blue halo in the shape of a vortex slowly swirled within the gate.
Having browsed a great deal of information on the internal network, Xia Feng recognized that what lay before him was the Space Gate leading to the Beiqiu Abyss.
The pale blue vortex at the center of the gate was continuously expanding, and Xia Feng estimated that once it filled the entire gate, it could be officially activated and they could enter.
At this moment, around the Space Gate, numerous individuals had already gathered.
Seeing Jiang Qiue arrive, a variety of gazes were subtly cast in her direction.
Xia Feng could distinctly feel that at least seven pairs of eyes lingered on him for more than a second, three of whom were at the Venerable level! It made him feel as if there were thorns in his back.
But at this time, a somewhat familiar and stilted female voice sounded,
"The opening of the Beiqiu Abyss is imminent, talents from all walks are converging. Master, with your weak skills, what makes you think you can compete with these super geniuses for treasures?"
Xia Feng glanced over with the corner of his eye and saw a woman in a snow dress wearing a beret, alongside a tall female knight with a somewhat stiff expression and a hint of puzzlement.
Clearly, that question had been posed by this female knight.
These two individuals were none other than Cha Naixue and her forthright Guardian Knight, Silver, who was always so trustworthy that it pained her master.
Silver’s expression turned serious as a hint of earnestness surfaced, "Not to mention Olivia, even Jiang Qiue could easily trounce you, Master. Maybe we should give up on competing."
"Silver, you’re also losing your milk tea ration the day after tomorrow." Cha Naixue’s face was expressionless.
"Uh..." The female knight instantly lowered her head and shut her mouth.
She had two bad habits: first, she was gluttonous, especially fond of drinking milk tea; second, she liked to offer advice to her master, but alas, frank advice offends the ears and the vain master hardly ever listened to her counsel.
Sigh, being a subordinate is so hard.
"Buzz—"
Right at that moment, two spatial fluctuations appeared in the sky, revealing two tall silhouettes in succession.
The first was a blond with hair cascading down his shoulders, clad in golden armor as if forged from gold, hands clasped behind his back, with a handsome face that featured enigmatic Heavy Pupils, scanning the crowd.
The second was draped in a light golden priest’s robe, with the back, sleeves, and collar of the robe etched with glowing golden scales of justice symbols. However, this individual had an ordinary appearance, except for golden pupils that glowed as if they held the brilliance of the sun.
Another two Venerables! Xia Feng looked up at the sky, his heart filled with surprise, as he had seen more Venerables today than in the entire previous year.
Jiang Qiue sensed Xia Feng’s curiosity and confusion, and so she turned to Master Yusi and said softly, "Introduce these people to Mu Feng."
Master Yusi glanced at Xia Feng and said, "The one with the Heavy Pupils, his name is Yeli Kong, a super genius from the Yeli family. This man was born with an A-grade Spiritual Artifact and the night he was born, a Taotie Phenomenon occurred, with thunder and torrential rain stretching across three thousand miles."
Damn, Xia Feng thought to himself, amazed. Born with Heavy Pupils, huh?
"Such a birth accompanied by natural phenomena indicates an excess of destiny swelling up. It’s a manifestation under the laws of nature, signifying that this person will encounter continuous opportunities in life and possesses the potential to become divine!"
"Behind him, the one in the golden priest robe, is the Justice Saint Jia Wen from the Church Court, also a super genius. But little is known by the outside world about this person. It is only known that he has a somewhat stubborn character, advocates for righteous deeds, and can’t tolerate even a speck of dust in his eyes."
Eh, a Justice Saint?
Xia Feng was startled, so the Church Court has a Saint Heir.... Black Moon, Element, they all have Holy Daughters, which led Xia Feng to unconsciously assume the Church Court would have a Holy Daughter too...
This left him feeling a bit... spit! Surprised.
Surprised at how the young leaders of today’s major forces were gathering, all without exception at the Venerable Realm.
So these are the legendary super geniuses, they do seem to have the marks of talent.
"How long does it take for these super geniuses to learn A-grade Spiritual Clothes?" Xia Feng asked, puzzled.
"A few days?"
Master Yusi was taken aback and then looked at Xia Feng with an expression that one reserves for an idiot, shaking his head helplessly. Indeed, this is what a foolish and ignorant artificial life form would say.
To even utter the words ’a few days’.
