Chapter 1995 I"m Laughing At Your Naivety! (1)
Buildings!
Deep within the mist, there were ancient buildings!
And not just one building, but extensive structures with clear signs of age, suggesting a long and ancient history.
When w.a.n.g Teng noticed the unusual reaction of the centipede-like creatures earlier, he had a feeling that there was something peculiar about the source of the poison tide. That"s what led him to use his Real Eye to investigate, and he was stunned by what he saw.
The complex of ancient buildings was vast, extending for an unknown distance, seemingly suspended above the mist, traveling with the poison tide.
It appeared that these structures would vanish when the poison tide receded.
w.a.n.g Teng gazed at the sight with a sense of wonder and a profound realization.
The buildings were incredibly ancient, bearing the marks of countless years, even through the shroud of mist.
He contemplated various possibilities, including the occurrence of large-scale poison tides approximately every 1,200 years. Could these ancient structures hold the key to understanding this phenomenon?
Was it a legacy?
Or something else?
If the large-scale poison tide were to disappear, would these ancient structures also vanish, returning to an unknown location, waiting for the next occurrence of the large-scale poison tide?
Hiss! Hiss! Hiss…
The hissing sounds of the centipede-like creatures around him brought w.a.n.g Teng"s attention back to his immediate surroundings.
He took a deep breath, s.h.i.+fting his focus away from the ancient buildings and back to the group of centipede-like star beasts. His expression grew serious.
More than a dozen imperial-level star beasts guarded the area in front of the ancient buildings, and when w.a.n.g Teng had peered into the mist earlier, he sensed something uncomfortable within those structures.
That feeling wouldn"t arise without reason. Although his Real Eye hadn"t revealed any substantial danger, he was certain that some hidden risks existed inside.
his ancient building held unimaginable danger, and w.a.n.g Teng believed it was best to retreat.
w.a.n.g Teng"s gaze flickered a few times. In the end, he chose to leave.
He realized that tackling this situation alone would be very challenging.
He must bring Elizabeth, Little White, the Metal Armor Flaming Scorpion, and even the Black Maned Python along.
These allies would provide significant a.s.sistance.
Without any hesitation, w.a.n.g Teng chose to retreat.
Time was of the essence, and he wasn"t sure how long the ancient building would remain in place. If it disappeared, it would be a missed opportunity.
The centipede-like star beasts didn"t pursue w.a.n.g Teng as he left, allowing him to depart. They emitted a few hissing sounds and then vanished into the mist.
w.a.n.g Teng headed back to Rui Snake City.
Elizabeth, Little White, and the Metal Armor Flaming Scorpion didn"t go far. When they sensed w.a.n.g Teng"s return, they returned immediately.
After a long battle, they were all feeling fatigued and needed rest to recover.
"I"m so tired!"
The Metal Armor Flaming Scorpion said with a weary tone, its long scorpion tail drooping with exhaustion. It seemed they had all worked hard.
"Catch!" w.a.n.g Teng was satisfied. He took out a recovery pill.
"Wow!"
The Metal Armor Flaming Scorpion"s eyes lit up, and it immediately opened its mouth, swallowing the tiny pill that was barely large enough to get stuck between its teeth.
An intense energy wave erupted from its body, revitalizing its spirit.
"Caw… thank you, master!"
The Metal Armor Flaming Scorpion laughed like a crow and came forward.
w.a.n.g Teng didn"t pay much attention to the thick-skinned creature and moved on to Little White, who had its head drooping. He took out another recovery pill and placed it in his hand, offering it to Little White.
Little White first affectionately nuzzled w.a.n.g Teng"s hand, and then it opened its mouth to ingest the pill.
For creatures of their size, w.a.n.g Teng appeared rather small, which made their every move cautious to avoid accidentally injuring him.
In truth, it wasn"t necessary to be so cautious. w.a.n.g Teng"s physique was incredibly strong, and even if they attacked, they probably couldn"t harm him.
w.a.n.g Teng then turned to Elizabeth and the Black Maned Python, tossing them pills to consume.
How extravagant!
Bulk distribution of pills!
Then, he scanned with his spiritual power, extending it through the mist to collect all the attribute bubbles that were released when Little White and the others killed the star beasts.
Poison Constellation Force*300
Blank Attribute*300
Poison Constellation Force*400
Blank Attribute*900
Poison Tide Domain*200
Poison Constellation Force*600
…
One by one, the attribute bubbles merged into w.a.n.g Teng"s body and mind, some directly becoming the constellation Poison Force while others turned into insights.
w.a.n.g Teng"s constellation Poison Force increased exponentially.
Although the attribute values of those bubbles weren"t individually substantial, their sheer quant.i.ty made for a significant increase in attribute values.
Boom!
In an instant, w.a.n.g Teng broke through again.
His constellation Poison Force rose from the sixth-level cosmos stage to the seventh level!
This speed was simply beyond words.
In just two to three hours inside the mist, w.a.n.g Teng had broken through two levels, advancing from the fifth to the seventh level.
If it were anyone else, they couldn"t even dare to imagine it.
Poison Constellation Force: 800/70000 (cosmos stage seventh level)
However, this was just a small breakthrough. w.a.n.g Teng was lucky. 800 points of attributes allowed him to advance to the seventh level and enter another realm.
The Poison Tide Domain attribute had increased too. However, w.a.n.g Teng had just raised it to the third level of the actualization phase. He hadn"t reached the requirements for a breakthrough yet.
Poison Tide Domain: 600/3000 (third-level actualization phase)
w.a.n.g Teng glanced at it and stopped paying attention to it. His gaze then turned to the Blank Attribute.
Blank Attribute: 3686000
Awesome!
His blank attributes had indeed surged by several thousand points, which was quite a good harvest.
Afterward, w.a.n.g Teng summoned Little White and the others back into the s.p.a.ce Fragment. Then, he took out the array token and activated a portal to enter the array.
