Thus, An Lin began his interrogation."I can detect the fluctuation of Realm Essence Crystals within your energy. Tell me where the Realm Essence Crystals are!"
The energy fluctuations within the Realm Essence Crystal were extremely unique, and they possessed a property that could make space more viscous.
An Lin had already familiarized himself with this type of energy fluctuation from the Realm Essence Crystals Emperor Ziwei had shown him. He could feel a similar type of energy fluctuation coming from the black praying mantis's body, although it was quite feeble.
"Realm Essence Crystals? What are those?" The black praying mantis was perplexed.
"How did you obtain your power?" An Lin asked.
"How else could I have gotten it! Of course it's from cultivation!" The black praying mantis felt as if it had been insulted.
An Lin: "... You have a special energy fluctuation within your body, have you come into contact with something that could improve your power?"
"Something that could improve power..." The black praying mantis considered the notion before his body trembled as he came to a sudden realization."Could it be that you're referring to the baptism of the Divine Lake!?"
"What is this baptism of the Divine Lake?" An Lin asked.
"It's the most renowned lake on this entire continent. It is located in the imperial palace of the central nation. All divine rank beings have the opportunity to be baptized once in the lake, and the baptism will help to enhance the power of the beneficiary, " the black praying mantis replied slowly.
An Lin nodded. There was probably a good chance that the power within this Divine Lake was from Realm Essence Crystals.
"Lead the way to the Divine Lake, " An Lin commanded with a smile.
The black praying mantis looked up at An Lin with shock before replying in a panicked voice, "No, the central nation prohibits all Giant Godfiends from entry. They will kill you on sight!"
After taking one step, An Lin instantly appeared right before him before plucking him up from the ground."Kill me? Let's see if they've got what it takes. Quit the chit-chat. Lead the way or I'll crush you to death."
The black praying mantis was given a fright by An Lin's fearsome speed. He didn't expect such a huge body to be able to move at such a terrifying speed. With this power and this speed... perhaps there was a chance he would be able to escape from that holy spirit.
It considered its situation for a moment before realizing it really had no choice."Alright, I'll take you there. But you have to promise to release me once we reach the Divine Lake!"
An Lin sneered coldly, "You don't have the right to be negotiating terms with me. Lead the way if you want to live!"
The black praying mantis: "..."
"Farewell, Godfiend An Lin!" Ye Nantian bowed to An Lin with a respectful expression.
"Farewell, Godfiend An Lin!" The entire Southern Heavenly Army bowed at once to farewell An Lin.
An Lin had completely flipped the tables by defeating the divine rank praying mantis and saving their nation. This was more than enough to warrant a collective farewell.
An Lin smiled and nodded at Ye Nantian and the others before flying away into the clouds on his black brick with the black praying mantis.
Nie Hao finally came to a realization after seeing An Lin flying away on his giant brick. That Giant Godfiend was probably the reason why Ye Nantian and the Southern Heavenly Army were all equipped with divine tools and were able to get to the city so quickly...
Nie Hao couldn't resist the urge to question Ye Nantian as the latter flew toward the city wall."General Ye, do you know that Giant Godfiend?"
Ye Nantian nodded."Hmm... I guess you could say we became acquaintances through battle... Godfiend An Lin is actually a highly intelligent creature that won't engage in senseless slaughter, so he won't hurt humans like us for no reason."
"You became acquaintances through battle? How did you end up battling him?" Nie Hao asked with curiosity.
"Well... he accidentally crushed our emperor to death underfoot, so we began to attack him..." Ye Nantian replied with a grave expression.
Nie Hao's eyes widened as his mouth gaped open."He... he killed our emperor?!"
He always had a nagging feeling that something was missing, but he couldn't figure out what it was...
He only realized now that their f*cking emperor was gone!
No! Their emperor was dead!
"He trod on and killed our emperor... and you call this making his acquaintance through battle..." Nie Hao's lips twitched.
"Well... to be honest, if he wanted to, he could've crushed all of us with one palm. Instead, he saved our Bronze Nation and gifted us with a thousand divine tools... Everyone makes mistakes. I think we should forgive him based on this sincere apology he delivered!" Ye Nantian replied.
Nie Hao nodded slowly as he listened to Ye Nantian's explanation. It did seem quite reasonable now that he thought about it."Hmm... we'll have to choose a new emperor then..."
Ye Nantian nodded."Let's choose the second prince. I think he is the best candidate."
Nie Hao: "... He appears to also be the only candidate..."
Ye Nantian: "True... Hopefully, the second prince isn't struck by any more mishaps."
"I sincerely hope so..." Nie Hao looked up into the sky.
...
In the sky above, An Lin was slowly closing in on the central city under the directions of the black praying mantis.
In the words of the black praying mantis, the continent they were located on was the Tai Chu Continent. The Tai Chu Continent was entirely surrounded by an endless expanse of glacial lands, and any creature who ventured into those glacial lands would be frozen to death.
The central city was located at the very center of the continent and was the undisputed power ruling over the continent. To humans, mutant beasts, and all other races alike, the central city was a holy place that could not be encroached upon no matter what.
Apparently, there were holy rank powerful beings that were beyond divine rank guarding the central city, as well as maintaining the stability of the entire continent at the same time. There were countless nations on the continent, including hundreds of nations like the Bronze Nation. There were also ten large nations each with a population of tens of millions and several divine rank powerful beings.
Thus, it was clear to see how powerful the central city was to be able to rule over all these nations.
An Lin cast a presence-concealment spell technique over himself and the black praying mantis as they flew toward the central city. Along the way, he was marveling at the strange world below.
Large animals were extremely rare on this continent, but there was a strangely huge amount of mutant beasts who were around the size of insects. The entire environment was basically like a miniature world, like an intricate playground for ants.
The tall mountains were like small mounds, the lakes were like puddles, and the rivers were like tiny creeks...
They finally reached the central city after flying for an hour.
The central city was constructed entirely from a certain white building material with no end in sight.
The central city was pretty impressive even from An Lin's perspective. A series of white towers and tall buildings extended into the sky, some of which were even taller than he was. There was a holy tower in the center of the central city that was over a hundred meters tall that was the true centerpiece of the entire city.
Within the central city, all races lived in harmony and there were written laws that prohibited fighting between races within the city. If conflict broke out, law enforcement would appear to detain the perpetrators.
An Lin's concealment spell techniques fooled the guards at the front gate, and he flew directly toward the Divine Lake.
Upon reaching the air above the Divine Lake, An Lin drew a sharp intake of breath.
The Divine Lake was like a golden mirror, shining with a dazzling light under the sun.
Rich power radiated forth from the Divine Lake in all directions, making the space around it a little viscous.
But those details weren't important. What was especially worthy of note was that there were four towers positioned at different points around the Divine Lake.
Those four towers all glowed with golden light, and they had solid centers while the exterior consisted of a series of rooms.
An Lin was completely dumbfounded. Those weren't towers; those were f*cking Realm Essence Crystals!
And they were the highest level golden Realm Essence Crystals too!
Holy f*ck, what a f*cking waste to use Realm Essence Crystals as construction materials.
Valuable items must be used under the right circumstances in order to maximize their value.
An Lin decided there and then that all four of those Realm Essence Crystals had to belong to him!
"Filthy Godfiend! How dare you encroach on the Divine Lake? I'll put an end to your life!"
A coarse roar of rage sounded right at this moment.
