Chapter 569: Chapter 564: Earth Element Door?
Spotting once again the movements of Luo Xiang, the Thunder Leopard that had completed its mission did not plan to linger. Giving each other a glance, it quickly scattered and fled.
Although they did not think Luo Xiang had the ability to use his powers continuously, they had already used a life branch of the Immortal Locust Tree, so their own energy was considerably depleted. There was no need for them to take any chances.
Anyway, they had achieved their aim of burying the Titled Legends of humankind. Now, with the formation of the great chasm, the tribe would have enough time to regroup.
The Ferocious Beasts left at top speed. Although Luo Xiang had intended to snipe at full force, the recent activation of the Annihilation Weapon had slightly affected his other weapons systems, leaving him unable to keep the Legendary Ferocious Beasts from fleeing.
“Luo Xiang, cease your sniping, focus all your efforts into locating the three missing legends!”
Upon seeing this, Qi Zhao abandoned his plan to gun down a few Ferocious Beasts and instead started a search for the three missing legends with the other Six Stage Beast Trainers at the site, who also promptly left the city walls to join the searching party.
“I hope Dad is okay…”
Bai Yuxiao appeared anxious, eager to help with the search, but was stopped by Bai Qiucha.
“The situation is unclear, it would be best not to cause any trouble.”
The fracture seemed to possess an irresistible force that was dragging people into it, against which even the legends were struggling. Bai Yuxiao going there with them would only worsen the situation.
“Don’t worry, my Talent is Dematerialization, so I won’t be affected.”
Bai Yuxiao shook his head, clearly unwilling to continue standing around.
“I should go too.”
Gu Shan also wanted to join seeing the situation.
“Forget it, all of you stay here. Cha and I will go check it out.”
Bai Qi walked up to the duo, exchanged a glance with Cha, and they both promptly mounted their Bone Dragon, heading straight for the fracture.
From a distance, it was difficult to tell, but up close, this fracture was nothing less than an abyss. One could even see some magma churning below.
The group cautiously moved closer, and upon reaching where Huangfu Wujiu had fallen, they immediately felt a terrifying force pulling them into the abyss.
“Don’t get any closer than where I am!”
Qi Zhao, who was at the front, immediately signalled for everyone to stop. Luo Xiang, overhead, quickly projected a cautionary marker on the ground.
“It seems like the Legends were trapped by this force.”
With the bottomless fracture in front of his eyes and the Square Stone on the opposite side, still pulsing with energy, Qi Zhao furrowed his eyebrows even deeper.
To raise Boundary No. 4, they had come fully prepared, even bringing Luo Xiang, with the aim of dealing a severe blow to the morale of the tribe and gaining more time for the Federation.
But now, having achieved the rise of Boundary No. 4, they had lost two Titled Legends and a Six Tower Tower Master.
This loss was much heavier than the gains from raising Boundary No. 4 or an SSS-rank Beast Tide.
Just then, Bai Qi, whose pets were all at rest, voluntarily walked up to the warning line, eyeing the Square Stone thoughtfully.
Somehow it seemed familiar…
Bai Qi stroked his chin, but struggled to make any connections with anything he remembered.
Just then, a Diamond Egg in his Beast Control Space suddenly cracked open, and Jie Ta, who suffered from the least injuries, voluntarily came out.
Hum hum hum…
(“Master, me wants to go there…”)
“Go where?”
Bai Qi started at the words and immediately stopped Jie Ta.
That place was exerting a massive force against which even the Titled Legend couldn’t resist. Letting Jie Ta go would be a terrible idea.
Hum hum hum…
(“But Jie Ta likes that bed…”)
Jie Ta seemed let down and peevishly cried out.
“Bed?”
It dawned on Bai Qi why the Square Stone seemed familiar.
This stone was just like the one he found in the Black Dragon’s Nest, the difference being the runes on it!
Thinking of this, Bai Qi quickly fetched the stone slab Jie Ta had been using for a bed. Without waiting for any comparisons, the stone slab seemed to be called by some force and flew towards the Square Stone on its own.
Hum hum hum!
(“My stone slab!”)
Upon seeing this, Jie Ta immediately flew over. Bai Qi tried to stop him, but without realizing had crossed the warning line.
“Hmm? I’m okay?”
Bai Qi instinctively tensed up to resist the force, but didn’t feel any change in him.
“Could this force have disappeared?”
Seeing this, Qi Zhao also took a small step forward, but the moment he crossed the line, the massive force dragged him towards it.
If it weren’t for the swift reactions of Duanmeng and others who prevented him from going any further, Qi Zhao would have surely followed in the other three’s footsteps.
“Could Bai Qi be immune to this force?”
Qi Zhao stared at the running Bai Qi following Jie Ta, and the stone slab that was slowly floating towards the Square Stone, puzzled.
“Perhaps it’s owing to Bai Qi’s Breaking the Void talent?”
Duanmeng pondered for a moment before suggesting a possibility.
“Breaking the Void talent? That could be it, this Square Stone might be an entrance to some secret realm. Otherwise, there’s no other thing that could have transported all three Legends simultaneously.”
Qi Zhao nodded slightly, Luo Xiang had just sent him the footage from a moment ago.
Including Huangfu Wujiu, all three legends vanished into thin air the moment they were about to come into contact with the magma, after falling into the abyss.
It seemed as though he was trapped in some secret realm connected to the Square Stone.
The slab didn’t fly fast, and Bai Qi caught up with it quickly. Jie Ta had stopped on the slab earlier, wanting to take it back.
“Jie Ta, don’t worry about the slab for now, see if there’s any change.”
Bai Qi halted Jie Ta’s action, saying,
It was clear that the slab and the Square Stone were one. Although he was unsure why the slab and the Square Stone were in different parts of the tribe, from what he could see, the only way to save the three legends was to keep the giant stone intact.
Whhhrrrl, whhhhrrrl?
(Change? Do you mean making my bed bigger?)
Jie Ta cocked his head, thinking that his bed might become bigger, and instantly became happy again.
Cracking…
Finally, after a brutal collision, the two slabs finally came together.
On the two slabs, the mysterious patterns flickered, and, like oil in water, they slowly merged together, leaving no gaps.
Then, the Square Stone voluntarily left the ground, floated slowly above the crack, and plunged into the magma.
The magma churned up, splashing countless sparks, and a gate, entirely formed of molten material, slowly rose from the magma.
“Is this… the Element Gate?”
Bai Qi looked stunned, he had not expected the square stone that had swirled away the three legends to be the Element Gate.
“Jie Ta, can you verify the authenticity of this…um, Element Gate?”
Upon hearing this, Jie Ta carefully approached and examined it for a while before nodding his head.
Whhhrrrrll, whhhhrrrrll!
(Master, this door should be real!)
“I see.”
Bai Qi nodded slightly, allowing Jie Ta to take him near the magma gate. After checking the mysterious runes on it several times, he was sure.
The door was indeed an Element Gate.
“At this rate, it seems to lead to the Fire Elemental World? No, that’s not right. The Fire Elemental World doesn’t have such a dense Earth Element. Could it be the Earth Elemental Realm?”
Considering the previous performance of the Element Gate, Bai Qi quickly made a judgment, which somewhat settled his mind.
While the Elemental World was dangerous, it wasn’t enough to threaten the three legends. Even if there were Demi-God Elements present, Huangfu Chuanqi and others also possessed the power of Demi-Gods. They should not encounter any abnormalities.
Thinking about this, Bai Qi immediately informed Qi Zhao of his judgment. Afterward, he planned to leave the place.
Though there was no danger to their lives, if they did not rescue them in time, who knew what action the tribe would take.
After all, the disappearance of two titled legends was undoubtedly a heavy blow to the Federation, not to mention that both of them were key figures in the Desolate Wall.
Hmmmm…
Suddenly, the Element Gate started to shake violently, and a large earthen hand suddenly stretched out from the Element Gate, grabbed Bai Qi and Jie Ta, and then retracted back into the Element Gate.
“Not this again!!”
The shout of Bai Qi reached Qi Zhao and others, everyone heard the frustration and helplessness within it.
However, right now, they did not have the mind to deal with this.
Three legends, and a destined-to-be-legend genius, have vanished into this seemingly Elemental Gate.
The situation was increasingly dire.
When Qi Zhao was about to return to the fourth wall and contact the Thirteenth Bureau and the Association for help, he found that two figures flew suddenly from the direction of the fourth wall and landed in front of them.
“We are still a step late…”
Luo Xiang walked up to the warning line, looking at the Element Gate below.
“They should be fine.”
Yi Yu joined Luo Xiang, looking at the Earth Element Door, but his gaze was somewhat unfocused.
“You really believe in what you’re saying?”
Luo Xiang gave Yi Yu an annoyed stare.
“I don’t believe it, but that’s what fate told me.”
Yi Yu flipped his finger, and a tarot card appeared in his hand.
“The foretelling result from the Tarot Crow shows they’re safe.”
“Really?”
Luo Xiang was somewhat skeptical. He was well aware of how unreliable prophetic skills could be, and there had been instances when they completely contradicted the reality.
“If it is someone else, I can’t be certain, but for Bai Qi, definitely.”
Yi Yu nodded, saying, “Every time I have prophesied about matters related to Bai Qi, contrary to my judgment, the predictions turned out to be reflective of reality.”
“Can it really work like that?”
Luo Xiang looked at Yi Yu, getting stranger by the minute. After hesitating, he jumped towards the Element Gate.
“Luo Xiang, don’t! That Element Gate will teleport you away immediately!”
Upon witnessing this, Qi Zhao immediately tried to stop Luo Xiang. However, he saw Yi Yu shake his head, saying, “Don’t worry. Currently, there is no secret realm in this world that can stop him. He may find a rescue method.”
“Alright.”
Upon hearing this, Qi Zhao sighed helplessly. After watching Luo Xiang, who was calmly standing in front of the Element Gate for a while, he directly returned to the Deserted Wall.
With the legends missing, there was a possibility that the tribe might attack again. He had to prepare early.
