The Legend of the Great Desolation: I Am the Fortress

Chapter 215 Lei Zhan, come out and face your death!
Everything is settled.

Everything returned to normal.

The shattered spacetime that had just swept through the entire void has now completely vanished.

"This……"

"You're going to die now?"

The Black Axe God, who was watching silently from the sidelines, felt as if he were in a dream.

The powerful being who looked down on him just now, a true god and Dao ancestor... this Yuqiu Daoist who has lived for countless years, died so easily.

Lei Zhan's gaze fell on the black stone in front of him, but his heart was very calm.

With a wave of his hand, he collected all the magical treasures left behind by Taoist Yuqiu.

As for killing Yuqiu Daoren, a true god and ancestor from the same camp, Lei Zhan didn't care at all.

He was merely an ordinary third-tier Ancestral Immortal. The powerful beings who were once terrifying in his eyes were only on the same level as the True Gods and True Immortals in the World Prison.

You should know that he swept away all the hundreds of true gods and immortals in the world's prison.

This Daoist Yuqiu possessed neither powerful secret techniques nor formidable magical artifacts. Even the divine swords he wielded were merely a set of innate top-grade weapons. Lei Zhan could kill him with ease.

With a thought, the divine power of the True God and the magic power of the First-Class True Immortal within his body surged together, instantly enveloping the entire Earth Fire Sinking Stone, which was completely wrapped in black chains.

While refining the magic weapon, Lei Zhan also spared a moment to turn his head and look at the somewhat stunned Black Axe God, a smile appearing on his face.

"Black Axe, come here!"

"Lord of the Palace." The Black Axe God stepped forward respectfully.

"Hmm." Lei Zhan nodded slightly. "For the past five hundred years, I've been in seclusion cultivating and haven't paid any attention to you. As one of the four commanders of my Star-Picking Palace, how is your team doing?"

"My team..." Black Axe God pondered for a moment before respectfully saying, "Over five hundred years, the team I led has grown considerably from a dozen or so Celestial Gods and True Immortals. We have conquered dozens of worlds, and now, with the addition of the Thousand Islands Great World, thirty-one worlds have been brought under the jurisdiction of my Star-Picking Palace. The number of Celestial Gods and True Immortals following me has also increased from a dozen or so to nearly seventy."

"However, those who later joined my Star-Picking Mansion lineage were almost all willing to follow me because they wanted to become disciples of the Mansion Master."

Although the Black Axe God possessed the strength of a top-tier Celestial Immortal, he lacked the charisma to attract so many Celestial Immortals to follow him.

Among them, the vast majority were drawn by the prestige of the Star-Picking Palace and the prestige of its master, Lei Zhan, which allowed the Black Axe God's forces to grow like a snowball.

This situation is not an isolated case among the four commanders: Red Snow God, Silver Moon God, Snow Scorpion God, and Black Axe God.

"Hmm? There are already nearly seventy Heavenly Gods and True Immortals? And there are thirty-one Great Worlds?" Lei Zhan was taken aback, then slowly nodded.

As for what the Black Axe God mentioned, Lei Zhan understood. Most of those true immortals and gods were willing to join the Star-Picking Palace lineage, probably because of the impact of the Boundless Gate's return.

Thousands of years have passed, and now the Gate of No Return has almost completely integrated into the Three Realms. The overall structure of the Three Realms has also undergone tremendous changes.

In the Three Realms, it will be ten or a hundred times more difficult for those gods and immortals who do not have a true god or ancestor behind them to survive than when the Three Realms were first established.

After all, when you're out there vying for treasures and fighting your way through the world, others have powerful figures protecting them, while you're all alone. Without sufficient strength, suffering losses is inevitable, and you might even face certain death.

Therefore, choosing a powerful being and joining them is the current trend in the entire Three Realms.

Of course, if we wait until endless years have passed, and all the major powers have fully formed and the entire structure of the Three Realms has been established, it will be very difficult for the Star-Picking Palace to attract so many celestial gods and true immortals.

As they spoke, Lei Zhan learned a great deal from the Black Axe God.

moment.

"Hmm?" Lei Zhan's face suddenly lit up with joy. "Completely refined! The restriction that imprisoned this treasure is quite profound. However, the fact that Daoist Yuqiu refined it earlier saved me a lot of trouble."

The words fell.

"Click~~~"

"Click~~~"

A series of teeth-grinding sounds rang out, followed by the tiny black chains on the earth-fire-sinking stone rubbing against the black stone wall and writhing wildly.

Wow~~~
In an instant, countless chains receded like a tide, and then in a moment they all began to break and disintegrate, then turned into countless fragments and disappeared.

In mid-air, the miniature silver spear, which had been bound to the fiery stone by chains, was now completely free. The silver spearlight flickered, and the terrifying aura emanating from it caused the void to begin to shatter.

"What a treasure! What a treasure!" Lei Zhan looked at it from afar, a look of surprise on his face. With a wave of his hand, the palm-sized miniature silver spear landed directly in Lei Zhan's hand.

"Nine Abyss Cold Shadow Thrust? Cold Shadow? This name suits me quite well." After a brief sensing, Lei Zhan's gaze fell on the silver spear in his hand.

Although this silver spear is only the size of a palm, the fine silver light flowing slowly across its body is like a cascading galaxy, with specks of cold starlight twinkling like stars in the Milky Way.

Lei Zhan's heart stirred.

Wow~~~
The silver spear in his hand grew wildly at a visible speed, and the silver light shot into the sky, forming a pillar of light.

With a humming sound of metal scraping against metal, the spear stretched out until it was three zhang long and as thick as an infant's arm, before slowly coming to a stop.

The biting cold air spread outwards from the spear, and a layer of crystalline frost quickly formed in the surrounding space.

Whoosh. Lei Zhan held the Nine Abyss Cold Shadow Dagger in one hand and gave it a light shake. Instantly, countless spear shadows appeared, and the space itself shattered under these layers of spear shadows.

"Excellent! Excellent! As expected of a Chaos Treasure!" Lei Zhan revealed a satisfied expression.

Although he possessed an entire world prison and had obtained a great many magical treasures, the most exquisite of these innate spiritual treasures could be piled up into a small mountain.

However, there are very few long spear-type magical weapons that can enable close-quarters combat. And at most, they are only at the innate top-grade level.

It's only slightly stronger than the few natal divine weapons 'Frost Shadow' in Lei Zhan's hands, but its strength is still limited.

Therefore, when a player hits a base, they usually go straight for the "Star Picker".

Now, he has finally obtained a Chaos Treasure. Moreover, this Chaos Treasure is a magical weapon like a spear, which is enough to greatly enhance his strength.

"Now that I have the Nine Abyss Cold Shadow Thorn, even the True God of Release from Hell is probably no match for me. After obtaining the Sky-Gazing Taihao Tower, I will also begin to slowly sweep away the imprisoned Ancestral Gods and Ancestral Immortals," Lei Zhan thought to himself.

In the past, he had been sweeping through the world's prisons, but he had never actively sought to cause trouble for the imprisoned ancestral gods and immortals. Because Lei Zhan knew that with his current strength, even if he wanted to plunder, he was still lacking.

Although those ancestral gods and immortals were imprisoned, each of them possessed a unique chaotic treasure and had extraordinary resources. Even with ancestral water and ancestral fire, as long as they controlled the chaotic treasures to resist, Lei Zhan would be helpless.

Furthermore, none of the cultivators imprisoned in the World Prison by the Lord of the Nine Directions Chaos Kingdom were simple individuals.

Lei Zhan would not rashly do something he was not certain about.

"Congratulations, Lord of the Palace," said the Black Axe God with a smile.

"Hmm?" Lei Zhan smiled. With a thought, he put away the silver spear in his hand along with the earth fire sinking stone in the distance.

“Obtaining this treasure is indeed a joyous occasion.” Lei Zhan turned to look at the Black Axe God and smiled, “However, Black Axe, you have already made great contributions in leading the gods and immortals under my Star-Picking Palace over the years. Now that I have obtained this treasure, you have also made a great contribution.”

"It's nothing, Black Axe dares not accept such a small contribution!" Black Axe God was taken aback and quickly replied.

“Those who have rendered meritorious service should be rewarded. Those who have committed wrongdoing should be punished.” Lei Zhan shook his head. “You follow the path of the axe, and although the black axe behind you is a high-grade innate spiritual treasure, you ultimately only have one…”

"Hmm?" Black Axe God blinked. The black axe on his back was a weapon that had been with him since ancient times. Although it was only a high-grade innate spiritual treasure, it was sufficient for ordinary combat.

After all, even primordial spiritual treasures are extremely precious to celestial gods and true immortals. In the past, the Black Axe Celestial God didn't dare to ask for too much.

Black Axe God was filled with anticipation, muttering to himself, "Could it be that the Lord of the Palace is in a good mood and wants to reward me with a suitable magic weapon? However, in close combat, having only one weapon makes it quite difficult to unleash my full power of three heads and six arms!"

Lei Zhan pondered for a moment, thinking to himself, and then slowly said, "Axe... I happen to have a set of them, all of them are innate spiritual treasures, which should be suitable for you to use."

"A set?" Black Axe God's eyes lit up, revealing a look of anticipation.

Wow~~~
With a thought, Lei Zhan saw a vortex appear in mid-air, followed by a young man in black walking out of the vortex and throwing out a brocade pouch.

"Here you go!" the young man in black said, and then disappeared.

Lei Zhan reached out and took the brocade pouch, then handed it directly to the Black Axe God.

Black Axe God respectfully accepted it, his mind immersing itself in the brocade pouch, and then began to examine it.

This investigation took only a moment.

"This...this treasure..." The Black Axe God was speechless with shock. He looked up at Lei Zhan:

"Lord of the Manor, this treasure is far too precious! A set of six, and all of them are top-grade innate items..."

“Take it. As I just said, merit will be rewarded and demerit will be punished. This is for you, so please accept it.” Lei opened his mouth and smiled, “Let’s go, it’s time to go out.”

"Yes!" Black Axe God bowed respectfully.

……

Thousand Islands World.

Above the boundless sea, a figure dressed in a black robe appeared. He was shrouded in the black robe, but his eyes were only misty, and those misty eyes looked down.

Below, on a thousand enormous islands, each is now teeming with countless immortals and demons. Among them are many powerful beings at the level of celestial gods and true immortals.

“The Great World of Thousand Islands,” Bu Xiu said softly, “I never imagined that the last treasure of one of the five Ancestral Demons of my Boundless Chaos World would be buried here.”

“That good-for-nothing Yan Zhu…”

"What a pity... what a pity for such a fine place. Now it will become a burial ground once again."

God King Bu Xiu shook his head slightly, then took a step forward.

"call."

With a spatial shift, he arrived directly above a massive island. None of the tens of thousands of cultivators on the island noticed this suddenly appearing figure.

"Build it up!" Bu Xiu's booming voice resounded throughout the entire Thousand Islands World.

"Come out and face your death!"
