I'm not just human!

It can be said that after Tefal obtained this knife, he used all his strength and even managed to fight against a transcendent monarch who had signed twenty-five secret contracts!

As for the extraordinary lords, it's because they've signed thirty secret contracts, a quantitative change that has led to a qualitative change, making them difficult to challenge easily.

"How so?"

Suddenly, Tefaro spoke up, looking earnestly at Shafa, meaning that he should choose first, or they could discuss it.

He was so focused on the scimitar that he didn't notice that Xia Fa had already set his sights on the overlord-level secret contract.

Xia Fa smiled slightly:

"I'll take the Overlord-level Secret Contract, you take the sword, and we'll see how things go—either split equally or leave the rest for the Guardian Lord, how about that?"

Tefaro breathed a sigh of relief, then exclaimed with delight:

"Okay, then that's settled!"

But then, He hesitated:

"Xia Fa, do you really only want that Overlord-level secret contract? This knife is a fragmented outer-world mystical treasure. If I take it, I feel like you're at a disadvantage."

Xia Fa originally wanted to say a few words with a smile, but suddenly, he immediately realized something and said in an extremely strange tone;

"You...you don't know which overlord-level secret contract that is?"

Tefaro shook his head:

"To be honest, I can only tell that it is a top-level secret contract by the number of secret texts on it, but I can't see the secret texts at all."

He paused, then continued:

"Even if it's just one of the three unknown overlord-level secret contracts, I still feel you're at a disadvantage."

Xia Fa laughed:

"It seems you have no idea of ​​the value of those three unknown overlord-level secret contracts. Don't worry, I won't suffer any losses."

As he spoke, Xia Fa was somewhat surprised.

Because he could clearly see the cryptic text at the top of the stone slab that read "miracle fantasy".

However, Tefalo couldn't see it clearly at all.

Could it be that only those who have signed the "Mysterious Singularity" agreement can see it clearly?

Without giving it much thought, now was not the time to dwell on this. Xia Fa and Te Faro exchanged a glance, and the two immediately stepped forward in perfect unison, ready to take away the spoils they each wanted.

But then, something strange happened.

They had just approached within about a hundred meters of the ancient pillars of gods when a strange fluctuation teleported them back to their original positions.

In particular, both Xiafa and Tefaro are signatories of the Lord of the Stars and are extremely sensitive to fluctuations in space and time, yet they did not sense any fluctuations related to space and time just now.

That strange fluctuation... was more like some kind of power of unbelievably high rank, comparable to a true god.

The two tried again, and sure enough, as long as they approached the circular area with a diameter of 100 meters around the ancient pillar of gods, they would be immediately teleported back to their original location.

Now, neither Xiafa nor Tefaro tried anymore, and instead began to think of a solution.

With the most precious and important overlord-level secret contract, Miracle Fantasy, and the incomplete outer mystery treasure-level scimitar right before their eyes, they certainly couldn't give up.

"Could it be..."

Xia Fa looked up and gazed into the distance at the ancient pillars of the gods.

In addition to the totems of ancient gods such as the "God of the Sun," "God of Thunder," and "God of Night" that we had seen before, if you look closely, you can also see ancient gods such as the "God of the Void," "God of Time," and "God of Reincarnation."

Moreover, the three ancient gods, the "God of the Void," the "God of Time," and the "God of Reincarnation," are located at the very top of the totem pillar, clearly indicating that even among the ancient gods, they hold the most esteemed position and possess the greatest power.

Of course, in addition to these ancient gods who control the basic rules of the universe, there are also ancient gods located slightly below the totem pillar, such as the "God of Harvest," the "God of All Waters," and the "God of All Fires."

Tefaro then seemed to be thinking about something and said:

"That fluctuation... is similar to the rank of a true god, but it is still the same as what we felt before. The aura of the ancient gods is far more vast and pure than our nine true gods, and it is easy to identify. Therefore, it is very likely that the pillar of the ancient gods is the culprit."

Xia Fa nodded:

“I guessed so. According to the Lord of the Guardians, the Pillars of the Ancient Gods allow magicians to communicate with the power of the ancient gods that remained in time. Over time, these Pillars of the Ancient Gods have probably become tainted with some divine power. No wonder Wizreel chose to put the spoils of war here.”

Tefaro narrowed his eyes slightly:

"So, we..."

A fierce glint flashed in Xia Fa's eyes:

"Destroy it!"

This time, the two acted with perfect coordination. Tefaro drew his scimitar and pointed the tip of the blade directly at the ancient pillar of the gods.

A transparent sphere of energy condensed at the tip of His blade and, like a gun firing, shot directly toward the right side of the Pillar of the Ancient Gods.

Xia Fa's method was more straightforward; he simply stretched out his right hand and pulled the ancient pillar of gods to the left.

As signatories of the Gate of Stars, the two of them at this moment used the secret ability of "bending manipulation" with great tacit understanding.

In an instant, the upper half of the ancient pillars of gods bent to the right and the lower half bent to the left. These two spatial forces, which were in completely different directions, were both incredibly powerful.

Click!

With a loud bang, the ancient pillar of the gods immediately broke and flew out to the left and right.

Boom-!

The instant the ancient pillars of the gods shattered, a sound like the beating of a giant heart resounded, and a transparent, invisible wave burst forth in a circle, instantly spreading across the entire underground and sweeping over the bodies of Shafa and Tefaro.

Neither of them felt anything unusual, but they inexplicably felt a sense of unease.

This surge of energy seemed to be more than just the dissipation of the primordial divine aura clinging to the Pillars of the Primordial Gods; it was more like a signal...

Some kind of signal sent beyond this place where time has stood still...

In that instant, an inexplicable sense of urgency welled up in my heart.

Without the support of the strange power of the Ancient Pillars of Gods, the surrounding treasures immediately fell to the ground. Xia Fa grabbed one hand, and the stone slab carrying the "Miracle Fantasy" was filled with starlight and instantly teleported into his hand.

Tefalo flashed forward and appeared directly in front of the broken, mysterious treasure-level scimitar, grabbing the hilt wrapped with black cloth strips.

The scimitar actually trembled and made a joyful sound, as if it recognized and was very happy to have Tefaro as its new master.

This scene reminded Xia Fa of the moment when he obtained the Calamity Slashing Saber in the bizarre nested realm of the underground cave, in the city of the Giant Jaw Beast.

"Let's go without delay!"

Tefaro spoke up, after all, he didn't know what the fluctuations would attract. In any case, he had already destroyed the Pillars of the Ancient Gods and completed the important task entrusted by the Guardian Lord. Leaving this place was the best course of action.

Once we return to the city of Mykih, we will be safe thanks to the ritualistic defensive array set up by the god whom the guardian lord once followed.

Of course, the guardian must personally activate the array as the array master; otherwise, it can only block ordinary extraordinary monarchs at most.

"it is good."

Xia Fa agreed, and with one hand grabbed all the other treasures, putting them into a separate pouch to bring to the Guardian Lord later.

Just then, several shrill and resentful screams, piercing through the thick crust of the earth, reached the ears of Shafa and Tefaro from the air and across the ground.

In particular, both Xiafa and Tefaro recognized one of the screams as familiar.

That was none other than... Archmage Wizrui!

"So fast?"

Tefaro found it hard to believe, but then he understood.

Magicians need to communicate with the power of the "ancient gods" through "chanting" to successfully cast most spells and forbidden arts.

The higher a mage's rank or status, the more power they can access, and the more powerful their spells and forbidden techniques can be.

But the ancient gods had long since perished. If it weren't for the special nature of this place where time had stopped, these magicians would have been rendered useless long ago.

Now that the Pillars of the Ancient Gods have been destroyed, Archmage Wizreel has lost his greatest support, and other mages are likely in the same situation, inevitably facing the fate of being instantly killed by the Guardian Lord.

Suddenly, the pitch-black underground cave lit up with the light of a rainbow.

The next moment, a rainbow bridge emerged from the rock wall, extending in front of Shafa and Tefaro.

Immediately afterwards, the anxious voice of the Guardian Lord rang out from a forest elf sitting on the Rainbow Bridge.

"My two little brothers, hurry, use the Rainbow Bridge! I'll take you to the exit of the Time Breathing Tube. My spiritual intuition tells me something's wrong. You two must leave now, or we'll drag you down with us!"

But as soon as He finished speaking, the Rainbow Bridge shattered and collapsed.

Boom!Boom!Boom!

Heavy footsteps echoed from the distant sky, each one like a drumbeat, striking the hearts of everyone present.

The footsteps sounded majestic and heavy, but they didn't sound like human footsteps, because each step gave the feeling that two feet were stepping in the air, and then two new feet were used.

Yes, those footsteps sound more like... a warhorse!

Accompanying the sound of those footsteps was an indescribable fear that descended upon everyone's hearts.

That fear... was like a hare encountering a sharp-eyed eagle hunting from the sky in a vast wilderness.

There is no way to avoid it, no way to escape it.

Moreover, there is absolutely no way to resist it!

In that instant, a certain "being" they had seen before immediately surfaced in the minds of both Shafa and Tefaro.

That was in the mysterious Bone Realm of that Heavenly Saint Venerable, in that hall made of mithril, where those bronze armored cavalrymen lay on the ground, and the bronze chainmail warhorses beneath them.

"The Cleaners..."

Xia Fa murmured to himself, his expression turning completely serious.

Judging by the sound, the cleaner seemed to be heading in the direction where the ancient pillars of the gods had been destroyed.

Therefore, Shafa and Tefaro used [Starry Sky Bubble] almost without hesitation.

Ink-black star bubbles and deep purple-black star bubbles simultaneously expanded from the two people's bodies.

Immediately, both of them teleported away and disappeared at the same time.

……

At this moment.

Arcane City.
