Chapter 385: Chapter 386: Sorrow of the Void

Everyone almost unleashed their most powerful attacks. According to Dongfeng Shuo, the battle had reached its final moment, and whether they could eliminate this terrifying Void Creature depended on what was to come.

The Void Creature had relied entirely on its innate abilities to unleash a powerful attack just now. This move could absorb all attacks into its body and then transform them into its own Spiritual Power. Not only could it use this to heal its wounds, but it could also gather all the attacks and release them back at the enemies.

In this exchange, it simultaneously weakened its opponents, healed itself, and concentrated Spiritual Power to counterattack.

However, this move had a significant weakness—if the amount of attack it sustained exceeded its capacity, the chaotic Spiritual Power would burst it apart. It was a rather secretive thing about the Void Creature, and how Dongfeng Shuo knew about it was unclear.

It was like ginseng in traditional Chinese medicine; although beneficial, excessive intake could adversely affect health.

“Using it should be no problem,” said Dongfeng Shuo, watching the Void Creature in the field, standing with his hands tied, and speaking indifferently.

As soon as his words fell, a loud noise erupted. The Void Creature exploded violently, a wave of a bloody scent swept through instantly, and large droplets of blood fell across the altar, with broken flesh raining down like raindrops.

The previously invincible Void Creature died in an unimaginable manner at this moment, leaving only a few people at the scene looking at each other, their eyes filled with excitement.

“Congratulations, you have successfully passed the test.”

These words rang out, and several people sighed in relief. Facing a Void Level creature, it was impossible not to feel pressured. Even Dongfeng Shuo, who had some understanding of Void Creatures, couldn’t claim with certainty that he could defeat a Void Creature.

After a fierce battle, everyone had played their last cards, and the Spiritual Power within them was almost depleted. This showed the true terror of the Void Creature’s strength; even in a place heavily restricted for Void Level beings and facing a wounded Void Creature, they had managed to reach such a state.

The mysterious voice had just fallen, and a circle of light appeared under the people’s feet, signaling the activation of the Transmission Array.

“Next time we meet, I’ll take your life,” Donghuang said with a cold smile to Mu Can, disappearing in the next second.

Just now, they had fought side by side, but now they had reverted to their previous status as enemies.

Mu Can chuckled lightly, not knowing what the situation would be next time they met; perhaps, by then, Mu Can would have reached the Void Level.

Being at the Void Level, one could practically roam horizontally in the Mortal World and even decide on crises within it.

With a flash of light, everyone disappeared from the altar.

“I didn’t expect it to end so quickly. That Dongfeng Shuo really has some skills,” Wang Cai’s voice rang in Mu Can’s Sea of Consciousness.

Frankly, if it weren’t for Dongfeng Shuo’s participation in the battle with the Void Creature, they might not have made it through, especially without understanding the creature’s weaknesses and habits, as that would vastly increase the danger.

“Yes, he definitely isn’t ordinary, but I still can’t determine his intentions, whether he is friend or foe,” Mu Can sighed. If they couldn’t figure out Dongfeng Shuo’s intentions, the thorn in Mu Can’s heart couldn’t be removed. Even the way Dongfeng Shuo had concealed his strength and identity to approach Mu Can had become something Mu Can was particularly puzzled about.

“If there’s malice, it’ll definitely show,” Wang Cai was quite open-minded. After all, with the protection of the Reincarnation Pearl, Mu Can was already on an invincible standing from the beginning.

“Congratulations, you’ve passed the test; the ultimate test begins now,” the mechanical-sounding mysterious voice rang again, seeming like a spiritless Puppet.

“It’s here,” Mu Can felt his heartbeat accelerate slightly. As long as he passed this final test, he would uncover the enormous secret that could make one reach the Void Level, the most important inheritance of the Divine Mountain.

“I’m ready,” Mu Can had already restored himself to prime condition using the Treasure Bead in his hand. The bead obtained earlier was indeed a special treasure for restoring Spiritual Power.

“The ultimate trial begins.” A flash of light under Mu Can’s feet, and he disappeared once again.

Mu Can had always wondered if the creator of Divine Mountain had some special preference—always liking to teleport people around. According to Wang Cai, such an accurate Teleportation Array placed directly beneath one’s feet required deep study of Arrays, something beyond the current capability of Wang Cai’s level in Array, suggesting that the creator of Divine Mountain, in some sense, possessed a higher mastery of Arrays than Wang Cai.

When Mu Can felt his feet firmly on the ground again, he had appeared in a huge hall. The architectural style of the hall was completely unlike any Mu Can had known, eerie with a tinge of darkness, especially with a few thick pillars in the hall, carved with different red patterns, making the pillars look incredibly strange.

“Where is this?” Mu Can was full of doubt. Judging form the look of the space, it certainly wasn’t a good place. Knowing that the previous challenge had already involved a Void Level being, this next one, concerning the final inheritance, would definitely be more challenging than Mu Can could imagine.

“That’s not right, this architectural style.” Wang Cai had also been paying attention to the outside events. What Mu Can could see, Wang Cai could see too. However, listening to Wang Cai, it seemed he had some understanding of this type of architecture.

“Do you recognize this architecture?” Mu Can’s eyes brightened. If Wang Cai knew the origin of this architecture, then he could deduce some information.

‘This architectural style, I’ve seen it once in the Supreme Interface, belonging to a race called the Banna Clan. Almost all members of this clan are powerful warriors, and their buildings are styled this way. Look at the bizarre patterns on those beads; they contain enormous Spiritual Power. If they explode, they could directly blow open the Void.’ Wang Cai clicked his tongue in amazement, seemingly surprised to encounter here what was only found in the Supreme Interface.

“Banna Clan? From the Supreme Interface.” Mu Can pondered a moment and nodded.
