Wizard's Journey

Chapter 1598 Xia He Reappears

"You may not know this, but there's supposedly been a new discovery down there."

Suddenly, another dwarf guard interjected.

The dwarf was sitting on a hammer larger than himself, with a trumpet-shaped musket at his waist, as if he knew some inside information.

The other dwarves all looked towards this dwarf, including the eye hidden behind the curtain.

"This is at the foot of Tianti Mountain, on the edge of the ancient battlefield. Anything can happen here. Why are you looking at me like that? My cousin told me that because of the cracks that have spread from Tianti Mountain, the geographical environment here has changed. The miners below have discovered an ancient ruin. According to preliminary judgment, it is very likely a seal! These days, those Saint-level masters have been gathering frequently, which is quite possible."

The dwarven guards' idle chatter, meant to pass the time, revealed a hint of anticipation to Grimm, who had been lingering in the shadows. His hand, which had been about to unleash a massacre, stopped.

Time passed, and seven days went by.

Ding-dong, ding-dong, ding-dong, ding-dong...

The furnace's flames were drawn from underground magma pools, an inexhaustible source. Everywhere, the clanging of hammers forging metal weapons filled the air. The dwarves, their faces flushed, their burnt beards mingling with the stench of sweat, created a scene of bustling activity.

"Hahaha, welcome everyone to the underground melting city!"

The dwarf king was dressed in magnificent attire, especially the emerald green gem on his crown, known as the Heart of the Earth. With the power of this supreme treasure, ordinary Saint-level experts would find it difficult to match him.

On the other side, compared to the Dwarf King's short, stocky build, the tall and elegant Ripple Elves carried longswords or bows. Yue was somewhat unaccustomed to the sweltering environment and could only barely maintain her elegant demeanor.

"The great Mountain Dwarf King, the Ripple Elf King, heard about the Sun Clock and dispatched fourteen Holy Elders from his tribe to assist your exploration. In addition, I personally brought the Azure Water Arrows."

After a pause, the female elf, who was about 1.9 meters tall, said in a low voice, "After all, it could be the remains of the great sun god. As the sun lord worshipped by many races in ancient times, if we could find some of the divine relics of this god, the help to the dawn of the gods would be immeasurable!"

"Hahaha, that's right, that's what I think too, everyone please..."

These days, the mountain dwarves have gathered quite a few Saint-level experts, which is a big deal even for a large clan like the mountain dwarves, but it is really insignificant to Green, who has secretly infiltrated the area.

Ding-dong, ding-dong, ding-dong, ding-dong...

The sound was the same crisp knocking, but it wasn't the sound of brief metal weapons striking each other. Instead, it was the sound of tens of thousands of dwarves building enormous statues along the vast stone walls of the cave.

It seems that with the mountain dwarves working tirelessly day and night, these statues are nearing completion. There are four in total, and Green is patiently waiting.

Green noticed the footsteps outside the cave; they were from different races, but the enormous amount of energy carried by four of them caught his attention.

"Hmm, it's just the descent of will, what a pity."

One can't help but sigh. It seems these gods are truly terrified, having hidden their true forms and daring not to reveal themselves easily.

"Then let's see what this so-called remnant of the Lord of the Sun is all about."

Grimm was no longer hiding; he appeared out of thin air in the center of the empty cave. The dwarves, who were working day and night, did not notice him at all. Amidst the chaotic footsteps of the Dwarf King and a group of Saint-level experts, who had just entered the empty cave, the expressions of the Dwarf King and the group of Saint-level experts, who were chatting and laughing, suddenly froze and stiffened.

In mid-air, a blurry gray figure was floating, yet it did not reveal the slightest aura. Three eyes with different luster were staring down at this place.

What exactly is that elusive ghostly figure?

call……

As an ancient oil lamp was lit, strange energy fluctuations spread. Under the calm observation of Grimm's three-colored eyes, subtle changes occurred in the bodies of everyone, from the insignificant dwarf statues to the numerous Saint-level experts who had just entered the hall.

"Alienation Domain!"

what……

Terrified screams echoed, and then the four divine treasures that were originally intended to be placed on the statue were casually destroyed by Grin.

"The art of creating something from nothing."

Dozens of liquid metal terminators appeared beside Green. Although these liquid metal terminators could only be maintained for a short time, they were more than enough to deal with this mountain dwarf cave, one of the dozens of headquarters of the Dawn of the Gods on the continent.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom...

Green wandered alone through the complex caves of the mountain dwarves.

Clatter, clatter, clatter, clatter—metal chains lifted the heavy stone gate, which was tens of meters high and incredibly thick. Two three-meter-tall metal statues emerged, conducting their routine inspection.

Through the cracks in the stone door, one could vaguely see various weapons displayed on the wooden shelves in the hall, including regular metal lacquerware, enchanted weapons, dwarven muskets and dwarven mountain cannons, etc. For any divine kingdom on the continent, these would be priceless treasures for developing believers.

Shaking his head, Green changed direction and came to another gate, but the smell of fermenting wine nearby told him that he had gone to the wrong place again.

After going back and forth like this for most of the hourglass time, Green finally made a discovery.

"This must be it. Even after such a long time, such potent divine power still remains!"

This is a giant sun clock. In addition to the central sun needle, there are thirty-six markings around the stone slab. Divine power emanates from it, blocking the deeper space and preventing the dwarves from continuing their excavation and exploration.

"Let's see what it is. From the perspective of the Face of Truth, there is no super-energy entity."

Crackling sounds!

Black arcs of electricity twisted and turned, light and darkness flashing by in all directions. The supreme divine power of law, in the eyes of the mountain dwarves, was rapidly dissolved under the annihilating arcs. Gradually, the sun clock revealed a passage leading to the unknown.

"Um!?"

As Grimm's Face of Truth pierced through the darkness along the passage, a fleshy worm sealed within crystal caused Grimm's tricolored eyes to suddenly light up.

"Commander of the Xiahe Civilization!"

On the golden sword stand, the Sun Sword had vanished, replaced by a crystal sword.

In the center of this crystal, a fleshy worm, only a few centimeters long, lay quietly asleep. Its tail had been completely transformed into a spiritual form. The worm was like amber, without a sound. It had been sleeping in this cave for countless years, and if Green had not discovered this place, it would have continued to sleep for many more years.

"The secrets of higher latitudes, seal them away here immediately!"

Just as Green had this thought, a sigh came from a spiritual will.

"Oh no...it's too late."

Inside the Amber Sword, the Xiahe civilization commander, Flesh Worm, opened his eyes.
