A Top Scholar in Everything-Chapter 204: Cooperation
Chapter 204: Chapter 204: Cooperation
The vast dark red sky without clouds, barren lifeless land, aimlessly wandering eyeless giants...
Baiyu cautiously observed everything around him.
The Spiritual Qi in the air was pitifully scarce.
Baiyu felt the Blood Qi flowing through his five major Qi Veins continuously, finally converging into the aperture below his abdomen, beginning a new cycle.
Unable to replenish Spiritual Qi from the outside world.
This meant the recovery speed of Blood Qi would be exceedingly slow.
Here...
Just as Baiyu was about to look around, four rays of light suddenly illuminated before him. Four masked, robed figures appeared in a state of distress, their faces pale.
Among these four.
Two had intricately sculpted masks, of exquisite texture.
The other two wore identical masks, clearly of common make.
Baiyu became vigilant, discreetly taking two steps back.
The four glanced at Baiyu, and before the leader barely noticed her movement, she was already in front of Baiyu.
"Not from the Abyssal Ascetic Association?" Surprise flashed across the face of the Lesser Deity, quickly concealed as she whispered, "Are you from Linjiang City?"
"What do you intend to do?" Baiyu remained alert.
This woman’s aura was powerful; he was definitely not her match now.
Yet, the Divine Country seemed to have a suppressive effect on other creatures. Baiyu’s various means at least allowed him to escape safely.
Moreover.
The Black Moon Mark was his greatest reliance here.
From the moment he entered the fifth level, the Black Moon Mark beneath his skin had been heating up, indicating that he could at any time invoke the power of the Black Moon and leave instantly.
"We are obviously here to handle this, and by the time the official people from the Maple Leaf Prefecture break through the Simulation Realm, Kazu might have already succeeded."
The Lesser Deity coldly explained.
She could see.
Baiyu had the Black Moon Curse and might become an asset, so she was willing to say more.
Of course.
Baiyu wouldn’t just believe in the other party.
The appearance of these four masked figures was mysterious; he knew nothing about them. Only when the name Kazu was mentioned did Baiyu secretly take note.
Soon.
The four began to swallow Medicinal Pills on the spot, seemingly to heal their internal injuries.
He didn’t know.
The Gatekeeper on the previous level almost took the lives of these four people. If they refused to give the Gatekeeper what was needed, they would face the city’s terror.
Back then.
The originally peaceful city would immediately turn into a Ghost City.
They broke through with brute force.
Relying on records from the Divine Court regarding the Black Moon Divine Country, along with excellent collaboration and formidable strength, they barely made it into the fifth level.
Time ticked away.
Baiyu took this time to explore the surroundings thoroughly.
Not a trace of life; the whole place was a dead zone. The ground was covered in layers of cracks, like the aftermath of a catastrophic battle.
"Kazu is surely in the central Divine Pool. Whether he wants to summon the Blood Lord or seize the power of the Black Moon, he needs to proceed there."
The Lesser Deity approached elegantly, "We can collaborate; you are a Black Moon Apostle and can greatly assist us."
"Collaborate?"
Baiyu curiously looked at her.
The white mask painted with the sun and moon on the left and right, with eyes radiating spiritual waves, was devoid of emotions.
"Collaboration is possible if our goal is to kill Kazu. But I know nothing about you; you’ll have to tell me your identity first."
Baiyu said.
"Of course, we are from the Divine Court, you may not have heard of it, but if you ask the Prefect of Maple Leaf, or someone at the level of Martial Arts School Director, you should know."
Although we are a secret organization, we always act with principles.
You may call me Lesser Deity."
The woman’s voice arose, leaving Baiyu extremely surprised.
Again something related to mythology.
Though this world fundamentally lacks Eastern Mythology, why do names from Eastern Mythology frequently appear?
Coincidence?
How could there be such a coincidence?
"Baiyu, you can agree with her."
At this time.
Cang Yan’s voice sounded in his heart.
Baiyu maintained a calm exterior while asking internally, "What do you know about the Divine Court?"
Cang Yan explained, "The Divine Court is also a secret organization, very powerful, mysterious, and extremely discreet in its actions. Even among themselves, they don’t know each other’s identities, as they are always masked.
This organization is very fragmented and has existed for many years.
However, its actions are always systematic, it’s rather arrogant, and cherishes its feathers.
If this person says they want to collaborate, then it shouldn’t be false. The title of Lesser Deity bears a significant status in the Divine Court. She should be the chief of this Divine Court operation."
Baiyu understood in his heart.
Only those who regard themselves as highly would dare name after a god system.
"How about it? We don’t have much time; during this time, Kazu has accumulated enough blood sacrifice materials and is now conducting the ritual."
The Lesser Deity’s tone was cold but laced with urgency.
"Alright."
Baiyu nodded in agreement.
...
The Black Moon Apostle could move freely within the Black Moon Divine Country, which was the reason for the Lesser Deity and her team’s collaboration.
All the way.
Whether encountering wandering monsters or facing difficult array hurdles, Baiyu merely needed to use the identity of the Black Moon Apostle to completely pass.
The four also exerted themselves to ensure Baiyu’s safety.
After about an hour, the contours of the Black Stone Plaza emerged in their sight.
"Is it here then."
Baiyu rubbed the Black Moon Mark on his arm, ready to retreat at the slightest sign of trouble.
However, the four from the Divine Court didn’t pause; they charged directly towards the plaza.
Many people were tied to the central column.
Qiong Jiu, Pang Fei, and Dong Chunsheng were tightly bound by crimson chains and at that moment could only open their eyes, looking far towards Baiyu.
A blood-red beam of light fell from the sky onto the column.
More accurately.
It fell onto the Eye of the Black Moon in the center of the column.
Kazu stood right beside it.
Even if he’d changed bodies, the four from the Divine Court locked onto him almost instantly. The Lesser Deity raised her hand and sent a blast of black light straight to the pearl center.
This dark energy exuded a sense of withering desolation.
Standing on the pillar, Kazu raised his head, his black robes fluttered in the wind, then he lowered his head again, manipulating the Eye of the Black Moon, continuing the ritual.
Within the beam of light shooting down from the sky, something bizarre seemed to be brewing.
"He wants to activate the Divine Pool; this method attempts to fuse the Blood Lord and the power of the Black Moon to become a pseudo-god?"
The Lesser Deity narrowed her eyes, no longer holding back; from beneath her sleeves, black and white lights shot out fiercely at the central light beam.
However.
This fierce onslaught was intercepted mid-air.
Baiyu looked upwards.
The one blocking the Divine Court was none other than Allen, who had been missing all along.
