Volume 2 + Chapter 142: Sovereign of The World
Xia Yi walked on the bleak earth.
In her field of vision was a valley, filled with countless dragon bones, the site of the calamity that once once struck the southern border of the Dragon Kingdom.
At that time, it must have been the awakening of a Legendary Beasts, bringing a terrible disaster upon the Dragon Kingdom.
Naturally, the dragons were not willing to surrender without a fight, so they must have battled fiercely with the Legendary Beast.
These dragon bones were the remains of those who had perished in the battle.
It was certain that the Legendary Beast was not yet dead.
Just now, Xia Yi saw that the aura of the Legendary Beasts, by merely brushing over the surface of the dragon bones, had crushed them all to dust.
“I wonder which one is in the Dragon Kingdom?” Xia Yi still felt that there was too little understanding of the Legendary Beasts here.
According to the history of the Old World she had seen in the depths of the sea near Golde,
There were a total of seven Legendary Beasts, each one different, possessing unique characteristics and powers bestowed upon them by the Creator God. It was precisely because they possessed such powerful abilities that their existences were nearly invincible.
The Leviathan she had encountered before was one of the Legendary Beasts, embodying Envy.
Although there was no concrete evidence, Xia Yi believed that the power of Envy was related to the ocean, capable of stirring the seas and creating tsunamis.
So which of the Legendary Beasts was in this true land was very important to Xia Yi.
As long as she knew this information, she might be able to infer the weaknesses of the Legendary Beast through their characteristics.
“How can I find out information about the Legendary Beasts?” Xia Yi was pondering this question.
There was not a single document about that great battle in the temple.
And the Earth Memory Xia Yi saw in the Great Sea of Trees was extremely limited in content, she didn’t even know what those terrifying figures that had fought the dragons were.
“And there are no other living creatures here either.”
Xia Yi looked up from the bottom of the valley, gazing above.
From the moment she left the temple and entered the valley, she hadn’t seen a single creature along the way.
Let alone small animals…
Suddenly, Xia Yi felt a gaze staring at her. She swiftly turned around and saw a figure hidden behind half a boulder above.
Someone!!
“Who, who is it, come out now!!”
Xia Yi summoned her Rose Staff, already on high alert… As long as the other party dared to make any aggressive moves, she was ready to blast them with a Fireball.
“I’ve already seen you, don’t pretend. Come out, or I’ll treat you to a big Fireball!”
No matter how much she threatened, that figure remained unmoved, always watching Xia Yi.
Just like that, Xia Yi held her Rose Staff in a standoff with the other party.
Time slowly ticked by, as if competing in patience with each other.
In a duel between masters, victory is often decided in an instant; whoever makes the first move exposes their weakness.
Xia Yi waited, ready to act the moment her opponent grew impatient and attacked…
“Wait, something’s not right! This doesn’t seem to be alive?”
She put away her staff and quickly climbed the mountain to reach the boulder.
The figure behind the boulder never moved, no matter what Xia Yi did.
When Xia Yi came before them and took a closer look, it was quite unexpected.
It was actually a stone statue!
The statue was enormous, depicting a fierce beast with a visage Xia Yi did not recognize, as if it had features of many different animals fused together… Its size was even several times larger than that of an adult dragon in its true form, perched atop a massive pillar.
The giant beast and the stone pillar were made of two different materials. That giant beast looked excessively realistic, as if a living monster had been sealed into the stone statue and was now sleeping.
This was completely different from the ancestor’s statue that could be seen at a glance to be carved.
It was this realism that had given Xia Yi the illusion that the statue was alive.
“What kind of monster is this? Why is there such a statue here?”
Xia Yi circled the unknown beast’s statue several times.
She was a bit dazed, looking around, and was startled.
There were also stone statues of this giant beast in other parts of the valley, each one independent. Whether in appearance or size, they were all different.
The largest was like a tall mountain, while the smallest was even shorter than Xia Yi.
At a glance, there were at least several dozen.
“What exactly are these? Why do they feel like they’re about to come to life?”
Xia Yi was a bit frightened, feeling an intangible heaviness, and actively distanced herself from the stone statues, increasingly wanting to return to the temple and hide in her safe house.
The thought of retreat surfaced in her mind again.
No.
I must not run away.
A heart like a clear mirror and still water.
Xia Yi took a deep breath, stabilizing her state of mind.
Now that no secrets had been investigated, how could she run away.
After calming down again, she continued forward, trying not to let her gaze directly meet the statues.
Looking at the dragon bones in the valley, she thought of a way.
There were many dragons who died in battle here, leaving behind resentful curses after their deaths. To a certain extent, those curses were equivalent to information!
Although bearing the curse might be a burden on the mind, Xia Yi was the brave Xia Yi, willing to take risks!
The silver-haired loli sprang into action, moving through the valley, sensing the areas with the densest dragon curses, and leaped towards a pile of dragon bones.
As soon as she landed, all the dragon curses converged on her, waves of extreme negative emotions assaulting her mind, threatening to engulf her consciousness.
“Hold on!!”
Xia Yi gritted her teeth, trying hard to discern useful information amidst the curses.
“Damn Demon God Pillars! Even if you kill me, don’t think you’ll live!!”
“Even if we dragons die, we absolutely won’t let the Beast of Sloth advance a step in the Dragon Kingdom!”
“Belial, Belial! I curse you!!”
“Ugh!”
Xia Yi exited the area of curses, already drenched in sweat, her mind a bit dazed, unable to continue enduring these curses. There were simply too many… This wasn’t just one or two dragons, but hundreds and thousands, which would crush her mind.
Fortunately, from the curses, she learned quite shocking information.
“Belial, the Beast of Sloth, Ruler of the 72 Demon God Pillars… Sovereign of the World…”
Xia Yi muttered in a low voice.
The stone statues she saw just now were the 72 Demon God Pillars under Belial’s command. Then where exactly was the Beast of Sloth?
Suddenly, a hundred-meter crack appeared in the mountain wall in front of Xia Yi, slowly opening before her, revealing its original form.
This was… an eye.
The little princess’s mind went blank.
It turned out that the “valley” she had entered was actually the main body of the Legendary Beast.
Belial’s pupil focused on her.
