Whispers

This shortcut is an extremely valuable asset for any Void Traveler.

"It's not surprising that Sivinardo was once a Planeswalker who had traveled to many worlds and knew some 'shortcuts'. The key question is... why did he specifically leave a coordinate here?"

"Could it be that there's something different in that world?"

Sulu couldn't help but develop a bit of an inquisitive interest.

However, just as he withdrew his hand, Inspiration suddenly struck him.

Behind him, a figure appeared.

It was a humanoid figure covered in blood and gore, very similar to the outline on the Wall of Flesh.

Its face looked as if it had been erased with an eraser, its features blurred, and its white eyes without any pupils.

This terrifying image sent shivers down Sulu's spine.

A murmur echoed continuously in the surrounding environment:

"When the seeds of arrogance blossom, the Lord of Madness will return amidst the feast!"

Sulu, of course, did not turn his head away to face its predilection.

Without a second thought, he Spirit World Travel to arrive at a hill outside the temple. Spirit Chain appeared in his right hand, while two Sealing Card appeared in his left.

After waiting a moment, the blurry figure did not reappear, as if everything that had happened was an illusion.

But that Words of Arrogance that lingered in my ears was absolutely true.

"The seeds of arrogance... could it refer to the spread of Words of Arrogance? What does 'blooming flowers' mean? And the Lord of Madness, without a doubt, is Sivinardo... He is about to be resurrected?"

Sulu's expression was solemn.

He felt that his actions of using the Dream Sealing and contacting the crystal pillar seemed to have initiated some kind of process.

Just then, his pupils contracted again.

Because a large number of Symbol Soldier retreated back into the temple.

Immediately, the enormous temple became hazy and transparent, flashing intermittently.

With each flicker, its form became more illusory, until it finally vanished completely into nothingness.

"The temple... has disappeared?"

"No, it meets the conditions and is hidden in a deeper location... Even though I've been there before, I can't pinpoint its exact location using Spirit World Travel right now..."

Sulu muttered to himself.

The arrival of a Planeswalker may have brought about a terrifying change to this ruin.

"But who cares... As long as I get what I want, what does it matter if Sivinardo is resurrected? At worst, I'll just not follow his path..."

Just as Sulu was about to leave, he suddenly looked in the other direction.

There, Inspiration captured a human figure.

It was as if a paintbrush had appeared in the void, depicting a tall and upright figure.

The other person was wearing a brown tailcoat and a hat, looking like a gentleman about to attend a banquet.

His golden curly hair, blue eyes, high nose bridge, handsome but thin face... all emerged from under the paintbrush, and a smile always seemed to be on his lips.

"Hello, respected [Planeswalker]."

He first bowed to Sulu, his manners were very proper, as if he had received special training.

"You give me the feeling of an ancient nobleman from the Chris Empire!" Sulu paused for a moment, clearly sensing the other party's legendary rank, as well as the madness and danger it contained. "May I ask who you are...?"

"Dale! Dale Anguskin! That's my name!"

The young man with golden curly hair smiled, revealing a set of pearly white teeth.

"The Demon Family... Anguskin?"

Sulu's pupils contracted, and he immediately recalled the Demon Ancient Mansion he had visited and the Demon oil painting he had seen!

One of the portraits was unmistakably a likeness of the other person!

This is an ancient monster who has lived for countless years! A fifth-tier [Purgatory Demon]! Possessing terrifying curse abilities!

"Yes, I come from the Anguskin Family ..."

Dale stared at Sulu with amusement. "I sense a lot of familiar scents about you..."

How did you find this place?

Sulu became increasingly wary and continued to ask questions.

"Actually... I arrived before you. Although fifth-tier professionals rarely have access to the third layer of the Spirit World, the [Purgatory Demon] is an exception... I was originally drawn to the <Book of Nameless Necro-Spirits>, which you once possessed... Later, I lost my connection and was attacked by the Church of the Goddess of Light, but it doesn't matter... Fully-formed Demon creatures have long lifespans, and I've always been patient... And a cute little guy in Nia City gave me guidance."

Dale spoke eloquently.

"Nia City... Demon Gallery?"

Sulu suddenly thought of the gallery incident that he and Rhode had dealt with back then.

"Yes... that portrait, too, is from the Anguskin Family," Dale said. "It's all the Great Demon's doing... Once we find Nia City, getting in won't be difficult. It's a pity..."

He glanced regretfully at Sulu: "Although I subtly 'lured' those two [Necro-Spirit] and obtained the Mountain Peak's address, I am not a [Planeswalker] and cannot enter the temple to resonate with its power..."

"So, you hid yourself, waiting for the right opportunity?"

Sulu's expression turned cold.

He was not Paladin after all; a Purgatory Demon was determined to hide, so his Shadow Clone could not detect him.

"Yes, thank you for your help; you've put everything back on track!"

Dale bowed again, seemingly with no intention of making a move.

"Your goal is to resurrect Sivinardo?" Sulu stared at Dale. "Is that also the Ancient Serpent Society's objective?"

"No, no, no! Our family belongs to a different faction from those believers... The only thing we have in common is that we all believe in that great being."

Dale smiled and said.

Given that Demon creatures can plunder each other 'Abyssal Power to advance their ranks, it would be a miracle if they could unite.

"And all of this was just a play, a play directed to please the great Demon."

Dale added.

"Is the resurrection of a god merely a drama in the eyes of Demon?" Sulu suddenly felt a chill.

"Fate had already set the stage; I merely gave it a slight push... So, farewell, and when we meet again, it will be the beginning of the first act of the play."

Dale bowed again, and a burst of flames began to burn from his feet, engulfing his entire figure.

After the torch went out, his figure disappeared.

"That pretentious charlatan..."

Sulu Inspiration his surroundings, confirming that the other party had indeed left. "If you didn't know I possessed the ability to Spirit World Travel and could leave at any time, you probably would have already attacked, right?"

He felt that the other party was hiding a lot of things.

And perhaps I have already been assigned a role in the 'script'.

"Demon, fate... nothing can Dominator me!"

Sulu murmured something, activated the Spirit World Travel, and disappeared as well.
