Chapter 373: It’s so Cool
“What is that weapon, by the way?” Wang Hao did not immediately agree to the Central Divine Emperor’s request.
Instead, he tried to probe details of his request. “It’s hard to explain…” The Central Divine Emperor replied hesitantly. “What, you can’t tell anyone what this weapon was?” Wang Hao quickly shot back.
“You really are so sincere…..”
“Every generation of the Central Divine Emperor swore an oath when they became the Emperor that they will not tell what this powerful weapon is to anyone.” The Central Divine Emperor replied hastily.
“I get it.” Wang Hao’s eyes glinted as he gave an interested look at the Central Divine Emperor.
“Your ancestors… the reason they sealed the lava beings was because they were interested in this weapon!”
Wang Hao cupped his chin as he spat out more of his deductions. “The Central Divine Empire, it must have been established in order to procure the weapon by the Lava Beings. And the Central Divine Emperor, they must have been the agents tasked to procure this weapon!”
The Central Divine Emperor’s gaze at Wang Hao was filled with more interest after hearing his deduction.
The Central Divine Emperor then gave Wang Hao a smile that was also not a smile. “Sir Wang Hao, your conjecture was mostly right.
“Stay within 5 meters of me so that you can join me in entering the Central Divine Plane.” This was what Tian Yi said to Wang Hao as they both approached the mouth of the volcano.
“So that token of yours only works at you and within 5 meters of you. How neat.” Wang Hao muttered. “That’s right.” Tian Yi replied cheerfully. “This way, nobody unworthy can just enter the Central Divine Plane.”
“Wait, but how about the exit from the Central Divine Plane? It seems like you only put a barrier to prevent others from going in, but not out.” Wang Hao inquired, remembering the lava beings that came out earlier.
Tian Yi gave Wang Hao a smirk as he said, “Well, anyone who exits the Central Divine Plane will be attacked by the formations around the volcano, except if that person was holding the Emperor Token or was near it.” Tian Yi then stared at Wang Hao deeply as he reminded him.
“That means you have to stay close to me if you want to leave this place alive.” With his experiences, Wang Hao knew a threat when it was given to him.
Tian Yi was basically saying that Wang Hao should not do anything that will displease Tian Yi, or else Wang Hao will have problems exiting later. Tian Yi did not care if Wang Hao understood what he said as they jumped to the gaping mouth of the volcano.
“Here we go!”
At the instant that Wang Hao and Tian Yi entered the mouth of the volcano, a powerful constricting power appeared, which seemed to want to crush Wang Hao and Tian Yi.
“Hong!” A barrier then appeared around Tian Yi, which blocked the constricting power. “Tsk, so that token really works huh.” Wang Hao muttered to himself as he and Tian Yi proceeded to descend.
“Boom!” With his attunement to space, Wang Hao felt massive shift in space around him. This only indicates that he was now in a new place. “It looks cool…. ” Wang Hao was not one to give a praise, but even he can say that the Central Divine Place was anything but cool.
Everything in the Central Divine Plane just looks…. hot, steamy and red. Plumes of lava were flowing like rivers, crossing through the lands of the Central Divine Plane, which were dyed red with all the red sand inside it.
The air felt dry and arid, with countless red particulates mixed in it. The mountains that surround the area looked lofty, as their blood-colored peaks looked certainly ominous. The sky that Wang Hao could see was red, with the clouds having varying red hues. There was no indication if any living being can exist here, as it felt like this place was just an extremely hot lava desert.
Tian Yi ignored Wang Hao’s weak pun as he guided him forward.
“Once we entered the mouth of the volcano, we were supposed to appear in a random spot on the Central Divine Plane. That was done to prevent ambushes. Hmm…” Tian Yi then looked around him, trying to determine their location. “From what I know, we are now on the outskirts of the Central Divine Plane.”
“Let me guess, this place is the barbaric place, and the real civilization of the lava beings is located at the ‘center’ of the Central Divine Plane.” Wang Hao said as he followed Tian Yi. “And the weapon is also located there right?”
“Hmph, those lava beings are just cocky that nobody yet from the line of our Central Divine Emperors procured the weapon!” Tian Yi said as he sent his glare forward. “Because of that, they have no problems flaunting their weapon! If I try to approach their capital, their strongest fighter will swoop in on me, not even allowing me to get near!”
It was obvious from the way that Tian Yi talked that he already bore a lot of enmity with the lava beings.
“……”
Along the way, Wang Hao did not say anything else as he chose to stay quiet. Upon seeing this, Tian Yi thought that Wang Hao was just giving him space. But the truth was, Wang Hao was currently talking to one excited person. “This is gold!” Old Man exclaimed as he saw the place where Wang Hao was in.
“These lava beings… I am sure of it! They are clearly a Hidden Race!”
“Oh, a Hidden Race?” Even Wang Hao was stirred by what he heard. Wang Hao then asked Old Man what Hidden Race these lava beings are.
“Hmph, they are an ancient Hidden Race, so you I forgive you for not knowing them.” Old Man said as he cupped his chin proudly. He then gave Wang Hao a feverish look as he said, “These Lava Beings came from the Muspelheim Galaxy, one of the nine galaxies supported by Yggdrasil. These Lava Beings are called the Eldjotnar!”
