Chapter 1388: Divine Kingdom Fragments (Part 2)
Seeing that Saleen had calmed down and was no longer so excited about the things in the divine kingdom fragments, Rafel could not resist saying, “The divine kingdoms created by the gods all have their own unique rules. These rules still exist within the fragments. It will also be good to comprehend some of them.”
“That makes sense!” Saleen chuckled. Rafel had suddenly became excited about these divine kingdom fragments, so he would still go and search them for a moment. Something that was able to make a battle angel excited would definitely be of help to him.
The task of clearing out the white castle had been handed over to the Winged Skull and Violet Angel. He then brought Rafel with him to reenter the Abyss of Light.
The existence of the demi-angels was no longer present within the abyss. Saleen had not brought the Violet Angel along because he did not want to allow the Violet Angel to collect the soul fragments here.
This place was a divine kingdom fragment. The space in all four directions was extremely vast. Saleen’s Power of the Soul controlled his perceptions. As it spread out, it could not sense the exit of the fragment at all.
Saleen’s Lightning Constellation was also released, allowing the radius of the lightning warriors’ activity to reach above 50 kilometers.
The two people swept through the abyss. As they walked, they had indeed discovered the oddities of this place.
The space within the divine kingdom fragment was not at all stable, as if it would collapse at any time. Even if this was a mistaken perception, this still caused one to shudder in terror. If the space collapsed, unless Saleen’s grade reached above grade-16, otherwise it would be hard for them to escape alive.
“My lord, the borders of the divine kingdom are not stable enough. This is because the divine kingdom was destroyed. Actually, it is not that dangerous, we...”
“We will walk along the border.” Saleen said resolutely. He detected that at the borders of the divine kingdom, there had once been an intense battle. Even Saleen himself was unable to imagine the intensity of this battle. Tens of millons of years had probaly passed. yet there was still space turbulence caused by the violent attacks at this divine kingdom’s border.
The strength of this space turbulence was not great, but it was extremely regular. Rafel said to Saleen in astonishment, “This divine kingdom is the one that was demolished by weapons after the death of the gods!”
“Weapons?”
“They should belong to the strongest and most supreme of the warriors...”
“Then the history of this divine kingdom fragment should be very long.”
“Indeed, if we use a mage’s elemental calculation method, I estimate that it can be calculated up to 14 million years ago. It was still a very young divine kingdom,” Rafel said.
“Young?”
“The Myers Continent was not always the primary plane. The history of this Crystal Wall system should be about 20 to 25 billion years old. A divine kingdom that is tens of millions of years old is considered to be very young.”
“Tens of millios of years. That is not the history that we know about.”
“Mm, but the rules here will not be that much different from the rules that we know of.”
“Let’s take a look and see what there is.” Saleen increased his speed and moved forward along the border of the divine kingdom. There was light only at the center of the divine kingdom fragment, at the position where the spatial pathway had been opened. Saleen and Rafel walked further and further. The border of the divine kingdom only had a mountain range that was about 1,000 meters tall.
The left side of the mountain range actually had forests growing there. Yet, the other side was full of barren rocks.
All of the trees in these forests were of a higher grade than all of the magical plants that Saleen had seen before. Saleen almost could not help but move forward to fell some of these trees. However, intuition caused him to not act. There was still some residual energy in this divine kingdom fragment. There would definitely be some things in it that caused people’s hearts to be moved.
Although these plants possessed the properties of a god, but to Saleen, they could still be used to refine a mage’s equipment. The Divine Tree Magical Tower had also been refined successfully by him in the beginning. Now that he possessed strong lightning skills, it would be even easier for Saleen to refine such goods that possessed the properties of a god. As long as he first used lightning to wipe out the properties of a god, he could refine these plants into the battle equipment that Saleen needed the most.
As they moved forward along the borders of the forest and walked for over 500 kilometers, Saleen saw a temple.
“Rafel, it is fortunate that I listened to you!” Saleen was about to move forward, but Rafel was already blocking his front and she rushed towards the temple. In the temple, there was a huge statue that was over 60 meters tall. A strange weapon was being held in its hands. It looked like a halberd, and there was also a long blade at its front.”
When Rafel saw this statue, a joyful expression surfaced onto her face. This was an ancient idol. The gods had long been finished and the remaining idols protected the temples. To Rafel, they were purely supplements. If they could find an idol that possessed a core, Rafel could even create an angel incarnation and provide herself with energy for the long-term.
In other words, in the future she could be like Saleen, stealing godly power everywhere. Such theft would not incur the attention of others. The Power of Faith that was required by the ancient gods was comparatively more disordered and was not pure enough. However, it came from numerous planes, and could even surpass the Power of Faith that was stolen from the Crystal Wall system.
Because the number of thefts were few, hence it was very difficult to attract the notice of any gods.
To the gods, they would only take note if a fixed amount of the Power of Faith was stolen.
Rafel used her spear to dodge the idol’s huge weapon. She turned to Saleen and said, “My lord, could you help me to take a look and see if that idol has any god’s core in it?”
Saleen smiled slighty. This Rafel had finally expressed some desires.
He used his Elemental Eye to take a glance. There was really a core at the position of the idol’s heart. Saleen utilized a magic illusion to show Rafel the form of the idol’s core.
Rafel saw the rough form of the core and felt that she was really too fortunate. This god’s core could be considered to be whole. She could even refine it into her body. Of course, she required Saleen’s help, otherwise the consequences would be very dire.
The idol’s weapon swept across, and the long blade in front grazed across Rafel’s body. Rafel was about to counterattack when a large net descended from the sky, capturing the idol within it.
Saleen used the large net to capture the idol and no longer made a move. Instead, he was all smiles as he watched to see how Rafel would handle it.
Rafel was indeed simple. She directly threw the idol into the space that belonged to her, then composedly walked towards the temple steps.
The temple steps were large and tall. Saleen made a few calculations and judged that these steps were meant to be used by creatures who were over 50 meters tall. In other words, the idol itself was about the same size as the gods of this divine kingdom.
When he battled against creatures with large physiques, he would instead hold the advantage, especially in the area of physical attacks, unless the other party used a weapon like a large club. If they used a sword or spear to fight against a small and short creature like himself, they would basically have to bend over in order to fight him.
Rafel jumped onto the tall step, her expression resolute. It had been so long since she felt carefree upon entering others’ divine kingdom. The fighting spirit within Rafel’s body was ignited, and she wanted to attack so much that it was uncontrollable.
This was an angel’s instinct, especially when they met other gods.
A second idol rushed down, and Saleen’s large net was once again cast out. These idols did not have much power remaining and were still thrown by Rafel into her own space.
Only two idols had appeared. Rafel was already satisfied. With these two idols, even if the refining of one failed, the second would still succeed. Angels would very rarely make the same mistake twice.
The ancient temple was several hundreds of meters tall. It did not adopt a colonnade structure, but instead there were many statues supporting the temple’s domes. These domes had a hemispherical structure and did not have any traversing beams. Saleen followed Rafel and walked into the temple. He saw that a huge star chart was drawn on the upper part of the domes.
So it turned out that gods also studied star-based knowledge!
Saleen saw that after Rafel had walked into the temple and arrived at the center of the temple, the ground beneath her feet was crossed with thousands of streaked lines. These were drawings of Holy Prose, and not a style of array.
The Holy Prose described the story of the ancient gods. Rafel softly recited them. Saleen listened from the side, but he could not understand what Rafel was saying.
Rafel recited line after line and the temple began to tremble. Saleen saw that Rafel was not at all alarmed and was still chanting sentence after sentence. Saleen simply went to Rafel’s side and used his Water Shield to protect himself first before doing anything else.
Rafel smiled. The temple shook more and more violently and the idols could no longer help but to act. Of these idols, two had already been captured by Rafel. The temple had fallen into disrepair after such a long time and the remaining godly power was still being used to resist the energy storm at the borders of the divine kingdom. Hence, the idols had not dared to act rashly. Losing two was already the limit. If one more was lost, even the dome would collapse.
Rafel was now reciting words of prayer. The collapse of the temple had already become reality, so these idols immediately gave up on supporting the dome, which had become a meaningless matter.
22 enormous idols brandished the weapons in their hands in thought, pounding them at the two minuscule blasphemers on the ground.
Rafel’s spear was set upright. The sharp tip of the spear shot out green-colored energy, forming a circular shield that covered both her and Saleen. The surface of this shield was decorated with plant and flower patterns, looking extremely gentle. In reality, when 22 heavy weapons pounded at its surface, the energy shield became dented.
However, after the power of the weapons in the hands of the 22 idols entered the energy shield, it was transmitted back and they clashed with one another. 22 enormous weapons flew in the air and slipped out of their hands.
The idols released angry roars. At this time, Saleen threw out another large net, trapping an idol. Rafel’s feet moved as she dragged the idol back and kept it in her space.
Saleen had discerned that the godly power of these idols could only be used for hand-to-hand combat and could not be used to release divine spells. Only then did he relax. He had never encountered ancient holy spells and could not guard against them.
The idols had lost their weapons and directly used their large feet to trample on them. Rafel continued to support the green-colored energy shield. This was the godly power of the Goddess of Nature, which specialized the most in defense. The large feet bounced off the shield. Saleen kept the net and spread it out again at an opportune moment.
Such a capture was extremely relaxed. Saleen was still leisurely and asked Rafel, “Are there still any constructions below this temple?”
“There should not be any more, but if we continue to move forward for more than 50 kilometers, there should still be two more temples. This is merely a gate. There should be teleportation portals here from the ancient times. But they are slightly destroyed and I don’t dare to bring you across them.”
There were many principles of teleportation portals. Even if Rafel was able to restore the ancient teleportation portals for a moment, she still would not dare to bring Saleen across them. These were teleportation portals that were meant for the gods to use. If humans went on them, there would perhaps be some unknown dangers involved.
Saleen was a person that she could trust on the Myers Continent. Amidst Saleen’s subordinates, there were already two pseudogods and he would not harbor any ill intentions towards her. If it had been anyone else, Rafel would not have cared if they lived or died.
