Chapter 590: Traitor

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The Sacred Alliance’s resources, expanse, and population were larger than the Gold Coast by tens folds or even a hundredfold. A steady flow of a large number of resources was quickly transported through various Magical Teleportation Formation Spells thanks to Goode’s plan and direction, and every duchy and domain affiliated to the Magical Beast Territory presented its special products and resources as a tribute.

A mountain of Premium Crystals, High-Level Magical Beasts’ Essence Crystals, and excellent iron ores were quickly piled up in less than a day, and after people got wind of the Magical Beast Territory’s recruitment of a large number of skilled blacksmiths, many people responded instantly and rushed over.

In less than a day, Yang Ling moved a large number of resources and blacksmiths into the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension. Those people started building a large weapon factory in the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension under Master Aaron’s guidance. This way, they could quickly provide excellent weapons and armor for the Magical Beast Army wherever they were, and the Magical Beast Army’s power would be increased.

After Yang Ling slept comfortably with Sofia and Yuna, he used the Magical Beast’s Blood Essence collected by Goode to craft a large number of Magical Beasts’ Blood Orbs, and he quickly replenished his exhausted Wizard Power and Mental Energy. After he finished making ample preparations, he used the Teleportation Gate again to go back to the Graveyard of Gods and Devils.

Swoosh!

He managed to activate the Teleportation Gate and go back to the Graveyard of Gods and Devils smoothly, but he still instantly consumed most of his body’s Wizard Power and Mental Energy like last time, and he was so exhausted that he couldn’t move a finger.

It was fortunate that he teleported directly to the Great Wizard Altar. If this wasn’t the case and he landed on the lake’s vicinity, his situation would have been more terrible.

“This is more tiring than having sex seven times in a single night, and even if my Wizard Power and Mental Energy were stronger, I still won’t be able to bear this torment for a long time.” Yang Ling shook his heavy head before he stood up with difficulty and consumed several drops of the Life Spring’s water.

The Teleportation Gate possessed great power, and he could freely enter and leave the Graveyard of Gods and Devils thanks to it, but it had a large power consumption, and it was difficult for him to use it even at his peak state.

In addition, if he consumed a large amount of his Wizard Power and Mental Energy in a battle, using the Teleportation Gate would be out of the question. This was why it was nearly impossible to use the Teleportation Gate in critical situations to go back to the Magical Beast Territory and take refuge in it. It didn’t matter whether he didn’t mind exhausting himself and risking his life because even if he had done so, he wouldn’t necessarily be able to activate the Teleportation Gate.

“Rodriguez, go hunting with the Magical Beast Army in the vicinity and snatch time to make Magical Beasts’ Blood Orbs. The more, the better!” After Yang Ling rested for a while, he collected the Great Wizard Altar and ordered the Corpse Wizard King to carry out attacks with the Magical Beast Army.

He must make a large number of Magical Beasts’ Blood Orbs because he would consume a large amount of Wizard Power and Mental Energy every time he used the Battle Soul Blade or the Teleportation Gate. The effects of the Life Spring’s water were better, but it was a pity that he had a limited amount of it, and it wasn’t like the inexhaustible Magical Beasts’ Blood Orbs.

“Hehehe, Fine! Lord, you can set your mind at ease.” The Corpse Wizard King chuckled and left after getting orders. He already got the Death-Attribute Godhead, and his advancement into a God-Level Corpse Wizard King was near the corner. At that time, he would be able to release the true power of the Master Divine Weapon, Death Horn. He would get excited every time he thought about this!

The Dark Dragon King, Giant Ape King, and others didn’t get a Godhead like the Corpse Wizard King and the beauty Sala, but they were still filled with hope for the future, and they all rubbed their fists in anticipation after hearing about an attack.

According to what Yang Ling had said, the Graveyard of Gods and Devils’ best trait was its numerous God-Level Magical Beasts and experts, and even though it was quite dangerous, it was also filled with opportunities. As long as they killed several God-Level Beings and got several Godheads, their turn would arrive.

Roar!

The Dark Dragon King, Giant Ape King, and others let out several roars and revealed their bestial nature. The crowd led by the Corpse Wizard King quickly left, and they looked impatiently for several God-Level Magical Beasts.

Everything would be fine as long as the Magical Beast Army didn’t run into an apex High-Level Divine Beast or an Abyssal Demon. They weren’t able to defeat such opponents, but it still wouldn’t be an issue for them to protect themselves. This was why they could exercise in the lake’s vicinity!

The Magical Beast Army released their instinctual bestial and crazy nature due to the allure of Godheads.

“This group of people!” Yang Ling looked at the Magical Beast Army that left far away and chuckled. Soon after, he turned around and entered the wooden house.

The Dark Dragon King, Giant Ape King, and others were bloodthirsty and wild, and they released their bestial nature. They might take a violent and rash approach. But, they were commanded by the Corpse Wizard King, and he didn’t have to worry about them too much.

Even though the old perverted Corpse Wizard King was thick-skinned and shameless, he was once a Corpse Wizard King that had an army of ten million troops, and his commanding and organization ability were obvious to all.

Yang Ling meditated in a wooden house like the Chief Elven Priestess and the Sword God, while the Corpse Wizard King fought in the lake’s vicinity along with the Magical Beast Amy. They exterminated the Magical Beasts’ group one after another.

As for the elves and Bellimore Family’s Golden Cloak Warriors, they also formed a group to hunt the Magical Beasts in the vicinity, but their efficiency was worse than the Magical Beast Army by much.

In less than three days, all Magical Beasts in the few hundred miles around the lake were hunted and killed. The Corpse Wizard King got a large number of Magical Beasts’ Essence Crystals, and he used them to craft Magical Beasts’ Blood Orbs. The army’s sole regret was that it didn’t run into any God-Level Magical Beast. They didn’t even meet a Low-Level Divine Beast, let alone a High-Level Divine Beast.

The Dark Dragon King, Giant Ape King, and others wanted to make a quick Stage Advancement, and this was why they suggested repeatedly and strongly to explore distant regions because they wanted to kill God-Level Magical Beasts. But the Corpse Wizard King kept them at bay every time, and he severely restricted the Magical Beast Army’s activity range.

High-Level Divine Beasts’ Godheads were too alluring, and even the Corpse Wizard King that had one still hoped to devour several more. But he still didn’t forget Yang Ling’s instructions, and he didn’t forget that this was the Graveyard of Gods and Devils that was filled with dangers.

“Sigh! I still didn’t make distinct progress. It seems like I ran into a bottleneck again.” Yang Ling practiced for several days in a row without making any progress, and he couldn’t help but shake his head.

If he became a Mid-Level Soul Wizard, he would get a preliminary grasp over the Battle Soul Blade’s usage technique, and he wouldn’t be limited to a single blade strike every time. As long as he could use the blade freely along with the Spatial Fetters, his fighting prowess would be raised by several folds or even a dozen folds. At that time, even an Abyssal Demon with a High-Level Deity’s power wouldn’t be a match for him, and he wouldn’t have to worry all day long.

He practiced for several days and absorbed a large amount of Spiritual Energy and Life Energy, but it was a pity that he still didn’t see any signs for a breakthrough. According to the stele’s explanation, after one reached the Soul Wizard Stage, every step forward would be quite difficult, and one needed a deeper comprehension of Soul Wizard Spells to achieve it. He also needed a large amount of Wizard Power and Soul Energy.

The Wizard Power was still manageable because he could absorb the world’s Spiritual Energy and Life Energy before using the Wizard Core to turn it into Wizard Power, but Soul Energy was troublesome. His sole way to get it was hunting a large number of God-Level Magical Beasts or demons and absorbing their Soul Energy.

The reason behind this was that he couldn’t absorb a large amount of Soul Energy from many beings. It was easy for him to hunt a group of Level Surpassing Magical Beasts, but hunting a large number of God-Level Magical Beasts and demons was easier said than done, and this was the pressing issue.

Meanwhile, he also used the Black Crystal Marrow to absorb a part of the Godhead’s energy, but it was still difficult for him to fuse completely with the Godhead and get a deeper comprehension of the Force Law.

Yang Ling wasn’t able to make a breakthrough in a short time, and this was why he took the notebook he got inadvertently in the temple. He started reading it slowly!

The handwriting on the notebook was quite sloppy, and many parts were illegible. Various matters were recorded in it, and reading this notebook was quite strenuous. In addition, just brief words were written about some parts as an explanation to what occurred, while some other events were recorded in detail and the writer even vented his feelings and anger as he wrote them, while in other places, he expressed his love and longing for a woman called Sandy.

“Dear Sandy, I had rushed ahead to the cliff and picked Thousand Layers Redbud Flower before I stored it well in a bottle. It’s said that if pretty young women wear a Thousand Layers Redbud Flower, they will be able to remain youthful forever and they will never get old. I’m daily thinking about the day where I will go back home and I hope that you will soon wear the Thousand Layers Redbud Flower. I also hope to kiss your alluring neck and kiss my beloved Sandy.”

After Yang Ling browsed several pages, he read many sentences commonly found in many love letters.

“Tsk, tsk. It seems like Armstrong Solomon is an excellent player.” Yang Ling shook his head and started browsing casually. He skimmed over it quickly!

“Dear Sandy, yesterday, I captured a Poison Dragon. It’s a stupid and smelly Poison Dragon and I was almost killed by the horrible odor of its large mouth, but in the end, it was killed by my sword. I bustled for several days and I finally managed to finish the mission smoothly. I also got the Godhead of a Poison Dragon with an apex High-Level Deity’s power, and I have taken its Divine Office.”

“Sandy, yesterday, we swiftly killed a Demon Battle Team, and as long as we finish another mission, I will get to go back home. But I have now a certain question and I can’t make a decision despite mulling it over repeatedly. After I get to see you, should I first kiss your left cheek or your right cheek?”

“Sandy, I’m really sorry. The Divine Lord sent down suddenly a Divine Decree and ordered us to go to the Graveyard of Gods and Devils to kill the traitor Artest. We must get back that object.”

All of a sudden, Yang Ling inadvertently read useful info, but it was a pity that the crucial words were fuzzy, while the page had already turned yellow. Armstrong was either quite hasty, or the notebook was stained by some juice.

According to the notebook’s content, the man called Armstrong was quite powerful, very powerful, and in his eyes, even the Poison Dragon and Demon Battle Team were quite frail and weak. But it was a pity that his group was exterminated in the end and he was killed by the black-robed old man Artest.

Yang Ling was surprised to discover that according to the notebook, the powerful black-robed old man Artest was Solomon Divine Branch’s traitor.

What kind of person was Artest? Why did he betray the powerful Solomon Divine Branch, and which treasure did he steal? In addition, what was the status of the notebook’s owner Armstrong?

Yang Ling was quite confused, and he flipped to the next page impatiently.
