While some people are making a public appearance, others are enjoying their leisure time.
at the same time.
With a slight distortion of space, the scenery before my eyes changed instantly.
Shin and Kibito used Instant Transmission to bring Turles and Merus down steadily onto a patch of lush green grass.
Xin turned around, his face bearing a hint of the poise and pride of a host, and said respectfully, "This is the Sacred World of the Kai, Mr. Turles, Inspector Merus, welcome to the Sacred World of the Kai."
Turles looked around.
The scenery here is indeed beautiful and pleasant.
The sky was a soft, pale gold, with rolling mountains in the distance and crystal-clear lakes nearby. A refreshing fragrance filled the air.
With his keen sense of aura, he could detect that something was indeed different here; there seemed to be an indescribable sense of clarity in the air.
It's very pure, but that's all.
However, when Turles turned to look at Merus, he found the other man's expression to be rather strange.
Merus frowned at times, and at other times looked thoughtful, his gaze constantly scanning the surrounding void, as if searching for something.
Turles asked, "What's wrong? Is something the problem?"
After a moment's hesitation, Merus finally admitted, "Indeed... there is a little..."
He organized his thoughts and continued, "Originally, I wanted the environment of the Sacred World of the Kai to make it easier for you to understand God Ki, but... the God Ki here... is much thinner than I imagined... almost impossible to detect..."
God Ki?
Turles and Shin had the same question in their minds almost simultaneously, but their motivations were completely different.
Turles immediately understood the true purpose of Merus's trip: he wanted to help him cultivate the so-called God Ki.
Shin, on the other hand, had no idea what Merus meant by " God Ki ".
" God Ki... what is that?"
Xin couldn't help but ask, his face showing a hint of divine confusion.
Merus didn't answer him directly, but continued his analysis as if talking to himself, "I think it's probably because the Supreme Kai hasn't awakened his divine power yet, resulting in this place being lacking divine nourishment for so long..."
Xin's eyes widened instantly, and he and Kibito beside him exchanged bewildered glances.
"Wh... what? Awakening divine power?"
As the most exalted deity in the universe, he was told that he hadn't even awakened his so-called divine power yet?
But seeing Merus's serious and matter-of-fact demeanor, Xin, as if possessed, asked, "How... how can something like this be done?"
Merus shook his head and calmly replied, "Perhaps you'll have to find the answer to this yourself."
Turles watched this scene from the sidelines. Should he remind him to go and ask the ancestor sealed inside the sword?
The thought only flashed through my mind.
Because he didn't know how to bring it up...
Let's see how things go first.
After a brief moment of disappointment, Shin was clearly unwilling to be fooled so easily.
He tried to press Merus about how he knew these divine secrets that even he himself had never heard of.
But Merus brushed it off with just a few words, giving him no chance to investigate further.
Seeing that he couldn't get anything out of Merus, Sin's mind raced, and suddenly something came to mind.
He turned sharply to Turles, his previously dim eyes now blazing with renewed intensity.
"Mr. Turles!"
Xin's tone was urgent and excited as she spoke, "I have a favor to ask of you! If it's you, you can definitely do it, right?"
Turles looked at him, but did not immediately agree, instead waiting quietly for what he would say next.
Xin took a deep breath and began to excitedly describe an ancient legend passed down through generations in the Sacred World of the Kai.
"In our Sacred World of the Kai, there exists a legendary sword— the Z Sword!"
Xin became more and more excited as he spoke, his eyes shining.
"Legend has it that whoever can pull out the Z Sword will gain unimaginable power!"
He added somewhat sheepishly, "To be honest, Supreme Kai in history has tried, but no one has ever been able to pull it out..."
"But you are different! You possess the strongest power I have ever seen! I believe you absolutely have a chance to create this miracle!"
Supreme power?
Turles remained outwardly calm.
This saved him a lot of trouble.
He was just worried about not finding a suitable excuse to bring up the topic of the Z Sword, but unexpectedly, the other party took the initiative to deliver it to his door.
"Sure, that sounds really interesting..."
Turles readily agreed.
Merus, however, seemed somewhat puzzled upon hearing this.
Z Sword?
There's such a thing?
"Very good!"
Xin was overjoyed, as if he could already see the legend come true.
He immediately urged Kibito to lead the way, and the group flew in a grand procession toward the Sword Peak of the Sacred World of the Kai.
They soon arrived at their destination.
The summit of Sword Peak is as flat as a mirror.
A giant sword with an ancient design and a mottled blade was deeply embedded in the incredibly hard rock of the divine realm, leaving only the hilt and a small section of the blade exposed.
The sword stood there silently, as if it had existed for billions of years, exuding a serene aura that blended seamlessly with the entire world.
Watching from the side, Kibito couldn't help but add a comment at the opportune moment, seemingly wanting to give Turles a heads-up.
"Mr. Turles, the seal on this sword is extraordinary; even the gods of all ages have been unable to budge it in the slightest..."
His subtext was clear: even if you're strong enough, it's normal if you can't pull it out; don't feel embarrassed.
Turles disagreed...
He glanced at Merus beside him.
The latter nodded, Turles smiled.
He walked straight up to the giant sword.
I casually stretched my muscles and bones.
Click-click--
A crisp cracking sound rang out inside his body.
Merus stood a short distance away, arms crossed, watching calmly.
Shin and Kibito were both tense, their breathing unconsciously becoming softer, afraid of disturbing Turles.
Just then, Turles's gaze sharpened.
"Drink!"
A soft shout escaped from his throat.
boom!
A burst of purplish-black flames suddenly erupted from his body!
This aura was incredibly violent, yet it was extremely compressed and contained, without leaking out in the slightest. It simply clung tightly to his body, exuding a terrifying sense of destructive pressure.
The purplish-black flames rapidly gathered, forming a tangible light membrane on the surface of his body.
Shin and Kibito stared wide-eyed, full of anticipation.
But after waiting for a long time, the dazzling, imposing transformation they had imagined never appeared.
Turles simply maintained his usual demeanor.
"No... don't you transform?"
Xin finally couldn't help but ask the question instinctively.
Kibito beside him also looked tense and confused.
Turles completely ignored the shock and murmurs of the two people behind him.
He took a step forward and stretched out his hands toward the legendary Z Sword.
Then, he firmly grasped the rough, ancient hilt of the sword, which was marked by the passage of time.
It felt cold to the touch and heavy, unlike a sword; it felt more like the weight of an entire mountain range condensed in one piece.
Turles ' arms muscles bulged instantly, and the bulging veins snaked beneath his skin like tiny snakes.
At that moment, the black light membrane burst forth with an incomparably dazzling halo!
His legs sank slightly.
Unleash your full power!
Rumble--!
The moment Turles unleashed his power, the entire Sacred World of the Kai trembled violently!
The earth shook violently!
At the foot of Sword Peak, the indestructible divine rock base groaned under the weight of the burden.
Click! Click!
Countless terrifying, spiderweb-like fissures spread wildly in all directions from the Z Sword as the center!
Clang--!!!
That Supreme Kai Sword, sealed away for countless years, regarded by successive Z Sword as the most sacred and unshakeable object in the entire universe...
It is being pulled out of the hard rock, bit by bit!
