Mining district, Far East island.

    Tang Jing never expected Tang Xian to come here. This caught him completely off guard.

    After traveling together with Tang Xian through a teleportation rift to the northern region of the Amara Continent, Tang Jing had assumed Tang Xian would immediately locate the teleportation rift leading to Baichuan City.

    But Tang Xian didn''t do that. Instead, he headed northeast, toward this mysterious island.

    Along the way, Tang Jing and Tang Xian witnessed the most desolate and silent northern continent they had ever seen.

    Almost all the beasts had migrated south to wage war on another mysterious land.

    During this time, Tang Xian guided Tang Jing toward the northeast island. Tang Jing truly didn''t understand the reasoning behind it.

    But he trusted Tang Xian. It wasn''t until they reached the island and saw the outlines of those enormous Zudun Giant stone statues looming in the mist-filled sea that Tang Jing finally asked:

    "What is this place exactly? Why are we here? Brother, Baichuan City must really need us right now."

    "The Lord of Eden may try to create trouble for Baichuan City, but if we fail to find the ultimate power to defeat it, Baichuan City will continue to face an unending stream of enemies. Right now, Junlin and Tang Feiji are keeping the Lord of Eden occupied, which makes this the perfect time for us to explore this place."

    Tang Xian noticed the sea mist here never dissipates year-round. Sear?h the ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    No one knows how long the Zudun Giants have been here in their petrified state.

    Tang Jing was unfamiliar with this island. Shortly after arriving, he followed Tang Xian into the dense fog and saw, in the distance, a towering structure that stretched high into the clouds.

    Surrounding the tower, beyond the area of elemental chaos, were the kneeling Zudun Giants.

    "You''re curious why I came here, aren''t you?"

    "Yes."

    "Baichuan City has Song Que and Akasi, so they can hold out for a while, but it will undoubtedly be brutal."

    "Brother, you seem different. What if there are casualties among them?"

    "I still have my own soul, and my body was created based on my original form, but now my calculation strength is far greater than before. As a Keeper of Order, Qi Yuan spared no effort in enhancing me. Not only has my combat power increased immensely, but my analytical abilities have also vastly improved."

    Tang Jing pondered the meaning of these words, gazing into the distant mist, and said:

    "So you''ve thought of things you hadn''t considered before?"

    "Indeed. If someone can see further into the future, that person often comprehends the past more deeply too. I deeply worry about Baichuan City, but I had to come here. For now, Song Que and the others'' lives are in their own hands. I will provide assistance as soon as possible, but before that, I must resolve the matters here first."

    Tang Xian stepped into the area of elemental chaos.

    Nowadays, his strength rivaled that of Qi Yuan in his prime, surpassing the typical Beast God. Naturally, these chaotic elements posed no threat to him.

    Tang Jing asked:

    "What''s inside here? Haven''t you explored this place before?"

    "The old me overlooked many details. I just sensed that the Lord of Eden was guiding me to this place."

    In the sky, lightning and flames seemed sentient, deliberately avoiding Tang Xian.

    Tang Jing thought Tang Xian would approach the towering structure, but surprisingly, Tang Xian didn''t even glance at it.

    The island was so vast that nearly a thousand Zudun Giants could be arranged across its surface.

    At first glance, the tower appeared to be situated at the island''s center, enveloped by elemental chaos, naturally leading one to believe the tower was the island''s core—the hidden library of the Lord of Eden.

    "What details?" Tang Jing asked.

    "It began when a member of the fox tribe among the Eden Tribe told me the island''s location. I subconsciously assumed that Bai Shuang was mistaken."

    Tang Xian reached the tower but didn''t pause.

    "Bai Shuang once claimed to have seen numerous Zudun Giants carrying objects resembling coffins. That must have been a long, long time ago—likely after the Twilight of the Gods, not long after the Beast God fell."

    Tang Jing said:

    "The coffins—could they contain the Lost Featherbird?"

    "Perhaps, or perhaps not, but it''s definitely related to it."

    "But regarding the Lost Featherbird, doesn''t its legacy reside with the Dark Crow?"

    "The Dark Crow is extraordinarily gifted, possessing power that transcends calamity, but the Sea God once said that the Beast God''s legacy can only belong to a Beast God. Which means, in this world, only myself, the Lord of Eden, and the Judge can possess it."

    Without noticing, the two of them had moved far away from the towering structure, reaching the island''s opposite end, outside the realm of elemental chaos.

    By now, Tang Jing had a vague understanding.

    This island was truly mysterious. It had once been mobile, but later lost that ability. The towering structure on the island was protected by elemental chaos.

    Anyone who crossed the chaos to reach the tower would instinctively feel that all their efforts and risks were justified, and that the tower held the island''s greatest secret.

    As a result, it was easy to neglect other parts of the island in their exploration.

    This was a form of cognitive laziness.

    Tang Xian had fallen victim to it before, but now, as a Keeper of Order with enhanced cognitive ability, he had begun to realize what he had overlooked.

    "So you''re saying the Dark Crow doesn''t possess the Lost God''s legacy. Does that mean the Beast God''s legacy still exists? Then what exactly is the Dark Crow? Can humans truly become that powerful without inheriting the Beast God''s legacy?"
