With the passage of time, the imperial camp of Sleeping Beasts was calm on the surface, and there was no slack in combat readiness inside. The empire will no longer increase its troops on the surface, but the existing legions and private armies of the family have no evacuation plan. In addition, no one knew that Zhang Boqian and Zhiji King had quietly returned to the Sleep of the Beast without notifying anyone.
The two went straight into the sleep of the giant beast, and the pressure that could throw the entrant directly to the void land mass was as if it didn't exist for the two human kings who had already stood at the pinnacle of power in the entire world. The white mist that permeated everywhere could not stop them from perceiving the slightest bit.
After walking through the white mist for a while, the Finger King suddenly pointed in one direction and said, "The old man feels that what we are looking for is in that direction."
"Okay, then go and have a look."
The two changed directions and flew along the peaks in the middle of the Grand Canyon. The speed was not too fast. With their strength, even with the constant suppression of the void behemoth's will, they wouldn't be so slow.
The King of Fingers obviously has enough strength to move, but he flies slowly, like walking in a garden to enjoy the scenery. Zhang Boqian's face already had a rather obvious look of impatience, and it didn't make any difference because of his status as the King of Fingers.
King Zhiji didn't look back, but at his level of power, everything that happened around him couldn't escape perception, and Zhang Boqian's expression was no exception.
Seeing Zhang Boqian's growing impatience, King Zhiji couldn't help laughing, and said, "Boqian, if you weren't in such a hurry, you wouldn't let Roxar run away so easily."
The blood king is the most difficult to kill among the dark lords, so Zhiji Wang and Zhang Boqian fought against Mei Danzuo and Loxar alone at the beginning, and actually planned to surround and kill the nerubian warlord. But the old spider demon who lived for more than a thousand years didn't know how to tell it, and ran away regardless of his identity before the battle showed obvious strength.
With Zhang Boqian's special ability to cross the void, he has been chasing into the depths of the void, but finally returned without success.
Hearing what King Zhiji said now, Zhang Boqian didn't react violently at all, and said calmly: "It's not a big deal, he won't be able to escape from me so easily next time." Those who really know Zhang Boqian know that this is not groundless arrogance.
When Zhang Boqian was only a warrior, he showed amazing talent in martial arts. Anyone who has fought against him will find that Zhang Boqian has found a way to restrain himself when he fights again. It's just that the stronger his combat power became, the fewer opponents around him, and most of the time he didn't need to use martial arts at all, and he could just crush with the intensity of the original force.
King Zhiji smiled and said, "Bo Qian, I am not blaming you. When I was young, I was just like you. I only liked to kill opponents in the fastest, most direct, and most straightforward way. Until these few years , I discovered that this world itself has too many mysteries worthy of our observation and exploration. These mysteries exist in every corner of the world, even our enemies, there are many things worthy of our thinking and even learning."
Zhang Boqian said indifferently: "Thank you for your guidance, Your Highness. But I have such a personality, and I can't change it after so many years. What kind of things do I do at any stage, now I like to kill opponents directly, and I can't do it."
King Zhiji nodded and said, "It's really hard to come."
The two finally stopped in front of a cliff. There was a deep crack on the steep cliff. Looking carefully, the peak rock at the foot turned out to be the skeleton of a giant beast who did not know how many years ago. The surface had been petrified. The outline of the skeleton can also be discerned.
Waves of void behemoth's will fluctuations are constantly emanating from this skeleton. It seems that this is the source of power covering the entire behemoth's sleep.
"Your Highness, you have worked hard." Zhang Boqian knew that the journey between the two seemed easy, but in fact it was due to King Ji leading the way. Let alone anyone else, even Zhang Boqian himself would never have thought of finding the true source of the giant beast's will so easily.
King Zhiji stroked his beard and smiled, and said: "It's easy, but it's not easy."
But looking at the skeleton that was only a few hundred meters long in front of him, Zhang Boqian frowned slightly and asked, "Is this the remains of a giant void beast? It doesn't look like it!"
Generally speaking, the larger the void behemoth, the stronger it is, which is common sense. Therefore, even though the giant beast's will clearly emanated from this skeleton, Zhang Boqian still couldn't believe that such a small void giant had the terrifying will to cover the entire void landmass after death.
Zhiji Wang smiled without answering, just stretched out his hand and pointed, and a plain white air shot out, hitting the bone rock.
This wisp of white air is no more than the thickness of a finger, but when it hits Zhongshan rocks, it collapses like a snow peak. The skeletons hundreds of meters away begin to disintegrate one after another, turning into quicksand, gurgling to the ground like a stream. In a blink of an eye, the entire skeleton turned into a pile of floating sand, which flowed continuously along the rock wall to the bottom of the valley.
In the center of the floating sand, a round stone was exposed, about ten meters in diameter, covered with blue-gray stripes. It was from this stone that the void behemoth's will came out.
Even with Zhang Boqian's strength and courage, he couldn't help but take a deep breath at this moment. He flew to the side of the boulder, stretched out his hand to touch it lightly, and said, "This is... the eyes of the void behemoth?"
Zhiji King put away his smile, and said: "It should be. But the legendary Void Beast Chaos has hundreds of eyes."
Both were silent. Apparently, the skeleton in front of me is just a split body that carries one eye of Chaos. The remaining will in it is enough to block the sleep of the giant beast and maintain the passage leading to the void land mass. Then how powerful it must be when it is still alive
At this moment, the two heavenly kings have a question, is the giant chaos really a creature that belongs to this world
"Do you want to take this thing back?" Zhang Boqian asked.
King Zhiji pondered for a moment, then said: "Bringing it back to the empire may not be a good thing. It is better to destroy it according to the original idea, and let the will of chaos return to the original body. This is a troubled time, and it is not appropriate to regenerate right and wrong."
Zhang Boqian glanced at the ground beneath his feet, thoughtful.
Seeing this, King Zhiji sighed, and said: "It is said that the skeleton of the main body of Chaos is deep in the center of the Eternal Night Continent, but look at the results of those little guys' explorations on the void land, and only a few spines are blocked. Once you have passed the land of the seven provinces, you know that we have no ability to approach it now. If we want to explore, we old guys are hopeless in this life, it depends on whether you can go further, and then you may have a chance to find out."
After finishing speaking, King Zhiji raised his right hand, ready to point to the round stone. But Zhang Boqian stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "I'll do it."
King Zhiji raised his eyebrows and said, "Aren't you afraid of being contaminated with this vicious karmic aura?"
Such a powerful giant void beast will not die for tens of millions of years, and it is unknown how many footprints and breaths it has left in the depths of the void. Once the remaining will is forcibly killed by the strong, it is possible to remember such an enemy in a mysterious resonance way. And that strong man, if he comes to the place where the giant beast footprints are in the future exploration of the void, it will be like stepping into a terrible situation, and may even provoke a backlash without knowing it.
Zhang Boqian said indifferently: "In the next period of time, I will also preside over the battle of national destiny. As long as I don't go deep into the void, forgive me it can't do anything to me."
Zhiji King no longer insisted, nodded and said: "Even so, then you come."
Zhang Boqian raised his hand and patted lightly on the boulder, and this chaotic eye instantly turned into fly ash. The sky suddenly became lead clouds, and the sky turned dark gray. After that, giant beasts roared. Countless gray bands of light flew out of the cobblestone powder, and flew around Zhang Boqian for several weeks, continuously roaring angrily, as if To remember his breath, finally fell to the bottom of the valley, submerged into the earth.
Zhang Boqian stood upright, not taking any protective measures to resist the prying eyes of these remaining wills.
Seeing this scene, even the King of Fingers sighed, and said: "They are right, Boqian, you are indeed the hope of the empire's rejuvenation. This boldness alone compares us old guys. go down."
Zhang Boqian still looked indifferent, not surprised by favor or shame.
After half a day, the will of the Void Behemoth dissipated and returned to its body hidden in the depths of the continent. The Grand Canyon of Sleeping Beasts still looks the same as before, but only when you go deep into the clouds and mists will you know that with the will of the giant void beasts dissipating, the passage leading to that void landmass also disappears. From the Eternal Night Continent, it is no longer possible to directly cross the void and enter the world with strange stone forests, forests and underground caves.
The disappearance of the passage officially opened the curtain of the battle of the empire's national destiny.
A few days later, Qianye finally got a military order, ordering him to go to the Chinese army to meet with him the next day, and Marshal Zhang Boqian will personally review military achievements and present rewards.
The so-called Qingyang King personally approving military merits is just a formality. Before that, military merits have already been counted and issued. However, being able to get the opportunity to meet the commander and accept the military merits awarded by him personally shows that Qianye's personal contribution ranks high in this battle.
That night, Song Zining, who hadn't shown up much, came to Qianye's tent again. The two sat for a while and chatted for a while, and the tent began to glow brightly, with several autumn leaves looming, and Song Zining set up a field to isolate the inside and outside perception.
But this time, as soon as the domain of three thousand floating leaves was formed, Qianye felt a faint wave penetrate the domain like a glazed pillar, quietly covering the camp. This fluctuation is extremely obscure, if Qianye hadn't absorbed the ancient essence and made rapid progress in his understanding of the void force, it would have been impossible to notice its existence.
From this alone, Qianye knew that the source of the fluctuation must be at least someone of the same rank as Zhao Xuanji. If it weren't for a god general, how could it be possible to use the force of the void to such a level.
Song Zining blinked at Qianye and made a wink, indicating that he also noticed something unusual.
Song Zining still said mysteriously, "Qianye, what I'm going to say next is the top secret of the empire. I got it from an extremely hidden source, so you must never pass it on."
"Don't worry." Although Qianye knew that he was putting on an act, he couldn't help laughing just looking at Song Zining's serious face, which showed no flaws.
Song Zining gave him a big roll of his eyes, and said in a relaxed tone, "That's good. That's right, I heard that the empire is going to launch a big war soon, and the target is the void land you just explored. And this This battle is said to be the real battle of national destiny."
"Battle of National Fortune?" Qianye couldn't help being surprised when he heard this term again. Zhao Xuanji said this when the Battle of Beast's Sleep started, so Song Zining's news is probably true, and it's not just to fool the eavesdroppers.
