The Growth of a God-Chapter 631 - 15: The Tenfold Forbidden Land
The place where the City of No Gods holds its sacrificial ceremony is not far from the city.
When the Ten-tailed Dragon Carp traversed a small half of the city and arrived at a desolate area in the northwest corner, all three of them noticed the peculiarity of this place.
"It's so desolate here!"
Looking at the desolate area that seemed completely out of place with the style of the entire city.
Feng Xi's pupils rapidly contracted and expanded, her built-in prosthetic eye began to scan and analyze the current geographical environment.
Then she discovered that there was a reason for the desolation of this place.
Because beneath this land, countless broken limbs and remains were buried.
These remains were entangled together, soaking up the vitality of this land, making it impossible for any vegetation to grow on the surface of this land.
Even the artificial life in the City of No Gods would instinctively loathe this land.
"So it's here! No wonder you had the Ten-tailed Dragon Carp lead the way!"
Recognizing at a glance the origin of this desolate land, Hephaestus's exclamation aroused Feng Xi's curiosity.
"What is this place?"
Turning to glance at Feng Xi, Hephaestus solemnly explained the origin of this place.
"This is the burial ground of the Divine Abominations and also the source of 'Divine Power' for the entire City of No Gods."
......................................................
Though the Land of No Gods is purportedly "godless."
In the Disaster Realm filled with gods, how could there truly be a place devoid of divine traces?
The very establishment of the Land of No Gods is a divine miracle.
As the Tomb of the Gods, the Land of No Gods is piled with the corpses of numerous deities, and the Divine Abominations lurking within are innumerable.
The residents of the City of No Gods inevitably end up killing some of the Divine Abominations through their repeated battles.
So how to deal with the remains left by these Divine Abominations became a pressing issue.
After all, although the Divine Abominations were dead, there was no guarantee that their remains wouldn't spawn new ones.
Thus, the residents of the City of No Gods specifically chose a "Land of Ten Extremes" to bury the remains of the Divine Abominations they killed.
Though said to be remains of Divine Abominations, quite a significant portion of these abominations was actually nurtured from the corpses of deities.
In other words, some of those remains buried by the residents of the City of No Gods directly came from the gods.
When first learning about the "Land of Ten Extremes," Hephaestus was utterly incredulous that this could possibly be the handiwork of mortals.
Both to prevent the birth of more Divine Abominations and to better protect the City of No Gods...
A certain generation's leader of the City of No Gods used the remains and knowledge acquired from the gods to construct an energy system capable of continuously extracting the power of Divine Abominations—the Land of Ten Extremes.
All Divine Abomination remains thrown into the "Land of Ten Extremes" would gradually be transformed into mortals due to the extraction of divine power.
Frankly speaking, such operations, such technology, were far beyond Hephaestus's understanding and imagination.
At that time, He suspected that the City of No Gods would inevitably encounter major trouble with this setup.
As it turned out, not long after, something unexpected indeed happened at the "Land of Ten Extremes."
"Their so-called 'sacrifice'..."
"Could it be that they're throwing the original residents of the City of No Gods into the 'Land of Ten Extremes'?"
Looking at the place that was originally meant to bury the remains of Divine Abominations, Feng Xi murmured in disbelief.
Born of the Mountain and Sea Civilization, Feng Xi simply couldn't understand.
Why had the "Land of Ten Extremes," which was originally used to protect the City of No Gods, turned into a place specifically for sacrificing its residents?
"What should we do next?"
Turning her head to glance at Marquis Yi, Feng Xi quietly asked.
As time passed, not only did Marquis Yi change his perspective on Feng Xi, but Feng Xi also gradually began to trust Marquis Yi's wisdom and judgment.
At the very least, Marquis Yi's performance during this period was not inferior to Feng Xi's captain in the secret forces.
The calm wisdom and impeccable strategies made Feng Xi feel as if she had returned to the time when she used to hunt down the "Civilization Seller."
"You finally asked me."
Sighing helplessly, Marquis Yi stared at the desolate land not far away and said.
"We have two choices now: one is to find a way to explore this so-called 'Land of Ten Extremes' now."
"And the other is to continue staying in the 'City of No Gods' and wait for the day they hold the sacrifice."
The former is dangerous, and the latter also carries significant risk.
"I personally suggest waiting some days!"
At this moment, Hephaestus offered his opinion.
"This is the burial place of countless Divine Abominations, and now that there's an anomaly, it's certainly not something you two can handle."
"Even if my true form were here, I might not be able to resolve the issues arising here."
Hephaestus was speaking the truth; He was not a deity skilled in combat, especially not in such situations.
"If that's the case, then..."
Before Feng Xi could finish her sentence, she suddenly heard a loud noise erupt from the city sky not far away.
Boom!
They unanimously turned to face the direction of the sound.
It was thunder, a bolt of lightning, an extremely dazzling flash.
Due to its incredibly fast speed and overwhelming force, by the time the three reacted, that dazzling electric light was already very close to them.
"It's a guard!"
"It's the unmanned guards of this city!"
Instinctively tugging at Feng Xi to leave this place, Hephaestus suddenly raised his voice and shouted.
At this critical moment, the Ten-tailed Dragon Carp under them suddenly turned around and flicked its tail, and the scales that were originally used to refract sunlight now glowed with golden light.
Clang!
Accompanied by a metallic clash sound, the electric light collided with the dragon scales.
Following closely was the spine-tingling sound of metal scraping and a strong static reaction.
Zzzzzzz...
Their hair stood on end, feathers bristling... Even in their disheveled state, Marquis Yi and Feng Xi showcased the qualities of combatants, simultaneously deciding to strike toward the electric light without hesitation.
Boom!
Another violent explosion sounded, and Marquis Yi's five-colored flowing light and Feng Xi's flying feathers filled the sky almost simultaneously reaching the target.
The five-colored flowing light stirring the five-colored primordial qi, the flying feathers capable of slicing steel and iron...
No one could escape unscathed from the combined assault of these two, and the unmanned guards of the City of No Gods were naturally no exception.
Bang!
Using the aftermath of the explosion, the unmanned guard flew backward, revealing its true appearance.
Enshrouded in electric light, the unmanned guard was a beast-faced monster with steel wings.
