"As long as you stop nagging, stop swearing, stop being unreasonable, stop..."
Along the way, Yaoyao kept punching Leo's cheeks because of the gag order. It couldn't hurt Leo, but Leo was really annoyed. He took the troublesome Yaoyao off and said a series of "no more".
Leo originally thought that as long as Yaoyao could do these things and not break the rules, he could lift the gag order.
"Forget it, you should just keep it sealed off."
Thinking about it, I decided against it. If he could control himself, none of this trouble would happen. "It's easier to change mountains and rivers than to change one's nature," which perfectly describes someone like Yaoyao.
Ignoring Yaoyao's unreasonable behavior, she simply put him back on her shoulder.
It only took half a day to reach the destination.
Leo carefully examined the surroundings, releasing his senses, but found nothing unusual; it was just an ordinary forest.
With a tap of his foot, the eight shadows vanished instantly.
A shadow with the ability to teleport can detect a distance of 800 meters in an instant, including both the sky and the ground.
Previously, the shadow could only travel 500 meters, but after Leo advanced to Level One Elemental Wizard, this distance became 800 meters.
Leo kept appearing around, eight shadows in total, searching meticulously without any blind spots, but after searching for a long time, he found nothing.
"The orientation is correct, and the location information is correct, so why can't I find it?"
Leo withdrew the eight shadows and carefully considered where the problem lay. He took out the Crystal Heart to see if it could react, but the Crystal Heart did not react at all.
Just then, a faint pain suddenly shot through his face; Yaoyao had punched Leo in the face with all her might.
"Stop fooling around, we're doing serious business." Leo ignored him and casually moved Yaoyao's little fist away.
Seeing that Leo ignored her, Yaoyao punched Leo in the face again, and kept pointing at herself in front of Leo's slightly angry eyes.
"You mean, you know where it is?" Leo asked tentatively.
Yaoyao nodded vigorously.
You're not lying to me?
Yaoyao stuck out her little belly in front of Leo, patting it with her two little hands as if to say, "I guarantee it with my integrity."
"Okay, I'll trust you this once."
Leo removed the gag order. "Tell me, where is it?"
"I can take you there, but you have to promise that you won't give me a gag order or make me speak afterward. That's the greatest insult to a man."
Yaoyao her hands on her hips, taking the opportunity to make her demands.
Leo didn't speak, but just stared at the self-righteous Yaoyao. This direct gaze made Yaoyao feel uneasy.
"At worst, I'll stop swearing. A man conquers life with his personality, not with swearing." Yaoyao softened his tone; he couldn't bear the pain of not being able to speak.
"Sure, as long as you don't swear, I can guarantee I won't issue a gag order," Leo said.
"Can you take me to find it now?"
"Of course, it's right here," Yaoyao said confidently, pointing to the ground beneath her feet.
Leo looked down at his feet. He had searched the entire area, even up to 800 meters underground, but found nothing.
"How stupid, I wasn't referring to the Main World."
Yaoyao's words were like a wake-up call, making Leo realize instantly that the corpse of the Goddess of Darkness was not in the Main World, but in the Shadow World.
Yaoyao pointed downwards, not to the ground, but to the shadow beneath her feet!
"Hurry up!" Leo urged.
Yaoyao rolled her eyes at Leo, grabbed Leo's shoulder, and the two disappeared in an instant.
Shadow World
This is all a reflection of the Main World; what you see now is the reflection of the forest.
Leo examined the area carefully but did not see the body of the Goddess of Darkness; her body was not in the Shadow World.
Before Leo could even voice his doubts, Yaoyao had already anticipated Leo question, saying, "He's not you, so of course he can't be in the Shadow World. The Goddess of Darkness is only a level four life form; her rule level doesn't allow her to enter."
"So..."
"So she's in the space between the Main World and the Shadow World, in the same dimension as our Shadow Space," Yaoyao said.
Yao Yao, who Yaoyao the same memories and soul as Leo, can resonate with Leo linguistically. The two can explain things clearly with just a single sentence, almost without needing to say a second.
With a push from Yaoyao's small hand, the two instantly left the Shadow World and arrived at a gray, misty place where neither the sky nor the ground was visible. Leo could not see more than ten meters ahead.
"You must never leave me. You have no coordinates here. Once you are separated from me, you will be trapped here forever. The chance of leaving alive is less than one in a million," Yaoyao said to Leo Xi in extremely serious words.
Leo nodded. This hazy space was an interlayered world he had never set foot in before. Apart from Yaoyao, who could freely travel between the Main World and the Shadow World, there was probably no other life form that had the ability to not get lost here.
Yaoyao grabbed Leo Leo's shoulders, controlling his direction. Or rather, Leo didn't know if there was any direction here. Everything was gray and hazy, and he had lost his sense of direction, so it was completely useless.
Leo had no idea which way to go.
After walking an unknown distance, a massive corpse emitting a faint light appeared before them. The hazy mist in the interlayered space could not get close to the corpse at all; it was forced back by the energy emanating from her body whenever it tried to approach.
It's unknown how long this corpse has been dead, but the fact that it hasn't decomposed and still exudes the aura of a highly evolved life form suggests that it must have been a high-level being in life.
"This is the corpse of Diana, Goddess of Darkness, that you're looking for," Yaoyao said, pointing to the body.
Even if Yaoyao hadn't said anything, Leo could have sensed it. The lingering aura of the Jeft World emanating from her clearly revealed her identity.
Leo stared at the corpse, which was at least 150 meters long, standing before him like a rabbit looking at an elephant.
"The corpse is too big; our Shadow Space can't hold it."
This Yaoyao's first time experiencing what a level four life form was like up close, and she exclaimed that it was so big that it couldn't possibly fit into the Shadow Space.
"If you can't fit it in, then dismember her and stuff it in piece by piece."
Leo had no psychological barrier to dismembering the body; this wasn't a corpse at all, it was something money couldn't buy.
That Crystal Heart was merely a world-class semi-finished product, yet it was hidden and nurtured by Jeft World's largest organization, for countless years.
Now, the complete corpse of a world-class powerhouse is right in front of me, which is more exciting than seeing a mountain of energy crystals!
Leo wanted to get closer and touch it, to really feel the aura of a level four life form. He had never felt a level four life form at such close range before.
But the moment his palm touched the skin of the Goddess of Darkness, a flash of light appeared.
Leo's hand was flung away with a bang, and his body staggered back several steps before coming to a stop.
"Wow, it's been dead for so long and it still has energy left. No wonder it was able to preserve its body so well in the interlayer space," Yaoyao exclaimed in surprise.
Leo didn't say anything, shook his slightly numb hand, and stepped forward again.
This time, Leo channeled all his magical power, leaped high into the air, and smashed a punch into the corpse of the Goddess of Darkness.
"Bang"
The moment the fist struck, the corpse of the Goddess of Darkness radiated light, its body, which had just been emitting a faint glow, now burst forth like the rising sun.
The intense energy fluctuation instantly sent Leo flying far away.
The sudden burst of intense energy caused the surrounding gray mist to churn and be forced far away.
"Snort"
Leo stopped far away, half of his body numb from the recoil.
He involuntarily let out a muffled groan, looking at the motionless Goddess of Darkness who still radiated energy. As expected of a level four life form, she wasn't so easy to obtain even after death.
"The energy remaining in her body has a recoil effect; only by exhausting this energy can we dismember her body and take it away."
"Hmph, a World Lord who has been dead for countless years actually dares to attack a great wizard with her last remaining breath. It's a good thing she's dead, otherwise I would definitely let her know what fear is!"
Yaoyao spoke harshly to a corpse, her tone as if she were a witch, baring her teeth and brandishing her claws as if she wanted to rush up and punch it a few times.
Leo ignored Yaoyao's words, instead taking a deep breath, his magical power surging like a turbulent river.
" Body Refinement Wizard, First Layer Hunter Bloodline, Activated!"
With a low growl, Leo activated his Bloodline Power.
Leo, a human from Earth, swelled up to a massive 3.5 meters tall as if inflated. His bulging muscles bulged with power, and his heart pounded like a war drum, exuding an overwhelming and domineering aura that made Hunter!
"Get ready, it's about to begin," the Hunter said, turning to Yao Yao, whose Yaoyao was hanging from her ear.
"Understood, I'll hide well."
Yaoyao gripped the Hunter's ear tightly, staring at the dark ear hole in front of her, and crawled straight inside.
The Hunter had grown to 3.5 meters tall, not the original 3 meters; one ear piercing was enough for Yaoyao to hide inside.
The Hunter waved his hands in the air, creating unique magical patterns, while his brain was processing data at its maximum.
All human emotions are suppressed, leaving only cold, machine-like pure rationality.
The nuclear materials within the Yaoyao shadow inside the body were spinning at high speed; at a certain moment,
The Hunter pushed forward with his large hand.
Perched on her shoulder, Yaoyao giggled and stretched out her two tiny paws as well.
" Nuclear Fission Grand Witchcraft!"
" Nuclear Fission Grand Witchcraft!"
Two deep voices rang out simultaneously from Leo and Yaoyao.
At the same time, within that shadow, countless atoms collided violently, particles colliding and tearing apart, then continuing to collide and tear apart...
The powerful energy bloomed like a beautiful flower in an instant.
The overwhelming energy, like a tsunami, rushed into Leo's body before it could even break through the shadow.
The immense energy, like a raging torrent, relentlessly and frantically assaulted the Hunter's body.
