Chapter 3274: SeekingEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The instructors looked at each other, then all turned their attention to Fang Heng.
Among the instructors, some had studied alchemy, but compared to Fang Heng, they felt they could not measure up.
"I don’t think it’s a big problem."
Fang Heng examined the seal on the stone tablet, thought for a moment, and continued, "However, I suspect that, like the seal in the sky, the chain seal here may have some special restrictions applied. If we break the seal, it might be detected by the one who set it."
The instructors looked at each other again, unable to make a decision.
Fang Heng asked, "Do you want to try?"
A necromancy instructor who had conducted in-depth research on the Dark Clan language crouched down to observe. After a while, he could faintly make out some words on the chains and said, "The characters engraved on the stone tablet resemble Dark Clan script in many ways, but the meanings are quite different. It’s difficult to translate."
"We don’t know what will happen if the seal is opened. Moreover, Fang Heng’s point is valid. Recklessly breaking the seal could alert the one who imposed it."
Georgi stroked his beard and said, "It’s not the right time to act. We should first copy the characters on the stone tablet and try to translate them later. I believe we can gain something from that."
"The seal and the stone tablet both emit strange energy. Gathering more clues first will allow for a more accurate judgment."
Fang Heng nodded in agreement.
No rush.
Take it slow.
Three months passed, and two more academic disciplines had reached God-level, but it would still take a long time to max out. The longer it took, the more death knights he could recruit, and the stronger his combat strength would become.
There was no hurry at all.
Just as he thought this, Fang Heng suddenly sensed something, frowning slightly.
Georgi noticed the change in Fang Heng’s expression and asked, "Fang Heng, did something happen?"
"Hmm, there might be a situation outside. Instructors, I’ll leave first."
"Alright."
Fang Heng quickly returned to the camp outside the Nether River in the Death Realm.
Abe Akaya’s vines quickly coiled around and gathered at Fang Heng’s feet.
"I see..."
Fang Heng completed the mental strength construct with Abe Akaya, silently nodding.
From Abe Akaya’s feedback, a large basement beneath the villa area of the Seven Realms Martial Capital had been discovered.
The villa, which had been empty for over three months, finally had someone appear.
Since they did not know who had come, Abe Akaya had not attacked immediately, instead disguising as normal natural vines.
From Abe Akaya’s perception, the intruder was not weak, roughly at a demigod-level.
Fang Heng had originally planned to continue cultivating in the Netherworld a while longer.
But if this was the case, it was better to return to the Seven Realms Martial Capital and check the situation.
...
Seven Realms Martial Capital.
Late at night.
Wu Yi appeared at the villa where Fang Heng had stayed, accompanied by several members of the Evil Clan.
Since confirming the news of Fang Heng’s death, the Noel Clan had suffered some setbacks from the spawns.
Under the oppression of the God Clan, the Noel Clan had chosen to remain hidden and endure.
The overall situation in the Seven Realms Martial Capital had stabilized.
The villa where Fang Heng had lived remained vacant.
"Miss Wu Yi, the situation has calmed down. Since the God Clan has not yet left, if you act without authorization, you might..."
"Shut up."
Wu Yi swept a cold glance at the accompanying members of the Evil Clan Elders Council and said in a cold voice, "There has already been a clear order within the clan. Anything related to the vampires is under my full control. Do you understand?"
The accompanying members lowered their heads, suppressing their inner resentment, and nodded. "Yes."
"Fang Heng once said that if necessary, we could go to the basement he once lived in to find him."
"We have already checked the basement and found nothing."
As they spoke, the wall in front of the basement, covered by vines, began to make a faint ’chi chi’ sound.
The vines slowly retracted, revealing the phantom of a magic array on the wall.
Everyone’s expressions stiffened, turning to look at the wall.
The magic array phantom on the wall slowly rotated. As the wall opened, it revealed a passage leading deeper inside.
A hidden magic array?
Once they saw the concealed passage clearly, the Evil Clan members’ eyes widened in astonishment.
Such a powerful magic array!
It could hide from so many people at once!
So... there really was someone here?
Wu Yi’s eyes also flickered with surprise. She nodded to the others and stepped into the opened passage, saying coldly, "Follow me."
The passage leading to the lower levels was silent, leaving only the sound of their footsteps.
Suddenly, Wu Yi stopped halfway.
Not far ahead, a figure appeared in the passage.
Wu Yi’s pupils constricted as she focused tightly on the figure.
Fang Heng!
It was really him!
He had not died!
Even at that time, the terrifying spatial fluctuations had not killed him completely!
"Welcome."
Fang Heng emerged from the shadows, looking at Wu Yi and the Evil Clan members. He raised his hand and said, "I heard that the God Clan has not yet left. You risked so much to find me. There must be something important."
Behind Wu Yi, the Evil Clan members all stared at Fang Heng with terrifying expressions.
He really was not dead?
This kid!
He truly was an unkillable monster.
Wu Yi took a deep breath, forcing down her shock, and raised her hand slightly, signaling her alert companions to remain calm.
"Mr. Fang Heng, we indeed have urgent matters."
Wu Yi chose to be direct. She nodded, "We have gathered intelligence regarding the spawns."
"Oh? What is it?"
"A lot has happened in the past three months. In short, the descended God Clan has not left. The spawns continue to serve the God Clan openly. The one who came with the Holy Realm has visited God Clan temples across the star domains. However, secretly, the spawns have been acting in their own interests."
Wu Yi paused, then continued, "Our intelligence network shows that the spawns have secretly located some of the God Clan’s scattered remnants."
Fang Heng’s expression did not change, though his gaze deepened slightly.
He recalled the final battle with the Seed of Ouroboros beetle king, Tantalus. Both sides had been exhausted, floating in space.
The remaining Seed of Ouroboros fragments had attempted to fuse with the God Clan’s body again.
Fortunately, before losing consciousness, he had forcibly obtained two of the cocoons.
Later confirmation showed that these two cocoons were special, never seen before, and could not be absorbed directly.
So what had happened afterward?
He had originally guessed that the beetle king, Tantalus, might not have been dead and could very likely occupy the God Clan’s body again.
But now it seemed the God Clan remnants had fallen into the hands of the spawns.
It made sense, since the spawns could locate the God Clan remnants.
However, the spawns were bold, daring to continue hiding the God Clan’s remnants right under the God Clan’s nose.
