Wizard Immortal

Chapter 694 Mural

"arrive."

As they walked deeper into the ruins, Riki-Oh's voice echoed from the spot.

Upon hearing the sound, Adir instinctively turned around and looked at Li Wang behind him.

But then, in the next moment, he was completely stunned.

There he was, standing there quietly, his whole body like a pillar.

What is most striking is his face, which has unknowingly changed completely. His face is distorted and looks extremely old, like an old man who is about to die.

What's even more chilling than these is Riki's own reaction; he appears completely unchanged, as if unaware of the alterations that have occurred to him.

"you"

Looking at Li Wang's current appearance, Adir couldn't help but speak, but hesitated for a moment and finally said nothing.

After noticing the changes in Li Wang, he turned to look at Xu Sen.

To his surprise, compared to the significant changes in Li Wang, Xu Sen, although he had also changed, did not change much and had not reached that terrifying level. He just looked older and seemed to have been affected.

"Didn't you guys notice?"

Seeing the changes in Li Wang and Xu Sen, Adir sighed deeply and then said the following.

"what?"

Xu Sen was taken aback, somewhat puzzled by Adir's words: "What?"

"What happened?"

Beside him, Li Wang also spoke with a solemn expression.

"Never mind. It's nothing."

Quietly observing the two's performance and reactions, Adir sighed deeply.

The two behaved perfectly normally, and their reactions were exactly the same as they had in the past.

However, the two people who were behaving so normally failed to notice the changes in themselves.

"Perhaps, in their eyes, they are perfectly normal."

Looking at the two of them, Adir quietly thought to himself, "Is there some power shielding them from perception, or..."

Various thoughts arose in Adir's mind, but in the end, he did not act rashly.

The reason we don't act rashly is simply because we lack the ability.

What he is currently in is merely an avatar. Although it possesses independent action and rationality, it does not have the terrifying power of its original body.

Strictly speaking, at this moment, he would be struggling to even kill a chicken, let alone fight with a human.

Although Xu Sen and Li Wang behind him exuded an eerie aura, Chen Ming was not naive enough to think that their strength was weak.

Given his current state, if he were to fight Xu Sen, whose condition is also currently quite strange, he would most likely be the one to suffer the loss.

So, that's it.

Adir thought to himself, and then began to look around, trying to see if there was any opportunity for him to get rid of Xu Sen and the other man behind him.

It's actually quite funny.

Adir had initially sought out Xu Sen and Li Wang hoping they could protect his clone and keep it safe from threats.

But in the end, the danger of the ruins was not yet seen; instead, it was Xu Sen and the other man he had brought in who became his fatal threat.

This is undeniably ironic.

Suppressing the various thoughts in his mind, Adir continued forward.

Ahead lay a series of altars and ruins, varying in size.

Following the distance, Adir casually entered the first palace among them.

This is a palace entirely made of gold, its entire surface gleaming with gold, making it look extremely magnificent.

Inside the palace are murals depicting ancient stories in ancient language.

Following the order, Adir looked at the first mural.

The mural depicts a vast river.

The river was silvery, with many boats floating on it, and people lying on them, as if they were fleeing a disaster.

The content of the painting was very abstract. After looking at it for a long time, Adir still couldn't quite understand the exact story it depicted.

"The River Vilnius"

Beside him, Li Wang's voice rang out, slowly saying, "This is the oldest river in mythology, and the birthplace of the gods in mythology."

"The eruption of this river signifies the fall of the ancient gods and the end of the age of the gods."

"Um?"

Upon hearing the voice, Adir paused for a moment, then looked at Li Wang's current appearance.

Upon entering the first palace, Riki-Oh appeared even older and more terrifying.

His skin was old, covered with patches of age spots that looked disgusting.

A putrid smell emanated from him, causing Adir to frown inwardly.

However, in this situation, he didn't say anything, just nodded quietly, and then walked to the side: "What about this one?"

The painting in front of you is the second one, and the content on it has changed.

On the silver river, a man rose again, standing atop the silver river, roaring there.

Perhaps due to the sculptor's technique, the figure in this mural is depicted as enormous and distorted, resembling a hysterical person lost in madness and twisting.

"The River Verna gave birth to the gods, and also ended them. After the gods died one by one, new gods were born in accordance with the turbulent River Verna, conceived on the corpses of the dead gods, and eventually had new bodies."

Riki's voice continued to ring out.

As the sound rang out, the changes in his body seemed to worsen; parts of his skin were torn and emitted a putrid stench.

Adir didn't speak, but simply walked to the next mural.

The meaning of the next mural is quite clear.

The newly born deities tried to break free from the river's embrace, but ultimately found it impossible.

In order to enhance its own power and break free from the river's constraints, this deity eventually created three enormous life forms.

"This is...the Three Gods."

Staring at the images depicted in the mural, Adir paused, his emotions fluctuating: "Is this how the three gods were born?"

"The three gods did indeed arise from this, but not entirely because of it."

Behind him, Li Wang's voice continued: "The original three gods merely represented three different powers. Only after countless years did they truly possess the great power they have today."

Hearing the sound, Adir did not respond, but silently looked at the last painting.

In that painting, a colossal silver beast descends from the sky and then slaughters the three newly born gods.

P.S.: I'm currently out of town and it's really inconvenient for me to write right now. I estimate that after this chapter, there will be another few days of no updates. Updates will resume on the 26th.
