A Wolf or a Dog
"As expected of you, Xingyu!" Xiao Wu listening to Wang Xingyu's speculation, Xiaowu suddenly understood and felt that this must be the method.
After figuring out the key points, the two first broke open all the sealing stones on the top of the fifteen Triangle Tower.
These stones are just ordinary stones; apart from being large, they are not very hard and can be processed quickly.
After breaking them open, the two discovered that the gaps at the top of each tower were not exactly the same: some were full circles, while others were only half-circles, each with a different shape.
Clearly, each Triangle Tower corresponds to a different phase of the moon's cycle.
Wang Xingyu then carefully compared the structures on the map and discovered that the fifteen Triangle Tower could barely form a crescent shape.
The fifteen towers should be arranged in the order of this crescent moon.
The internal structure of the towers is exactly the same.
The two tried to move the disc stones and found that they were much heavier than they had imagined, and that they also had the effect of suppressing Soul Power.
Fortunately, their bodies had been enhanced, so it was only a matter of time before they could lift it.
All the conditions for solving the puzzle have been gathered; everything is ready, and we are just waiting for the full moon tomorrow night.
Night fell over the desert, and the moon had just risen when the two began to move the stones in order.
The round stones were already hauled to the bases of the tower yesterday, and now each person is carrying one stone on each side to the top of the tower.
After everything was moved, the moon was almost overhead.
The two then separated and quickly adjusted the position of the disc; adjusting the position was enough for one person.
The bright moonlight shone through the top of the tower, illuminating the ground inside the Triangle Tower and forming different moon patterns.
After adjusting to one Xiao Wu, Xiao Rabbit Leap Meteor leaped to the next tower with incredible speed.
One, two, and by the time they finished the fourteenth, the moon was still not at its zenith.
Wang Xingyu flew in mid-air, made minor adjustments to each disc, and then landed next to Xiao Wu.
"Will this work?" Xiao Wu asked softly.
"It's probably fine. If that still doesn't work, I'm out of ideas."
The moon finally rose to its highest point.
Just as Wang Xingyu was about to say that nothing seemed to have changed, the Triangle Tower beneath his feet suddenly began to tremble violently.
He immediately used the Blue Silver vines to lift Xiao Wu and Big Yellow into the air, rising into mid-air.
At the same time, the inscriptions on the fifteen Triangle Tower lit up simultaneously, emitting a blue light, as if the entire complex had been illuminated.
A blue ray of light appeared on the ground, connecting each of the Triangle Tower to form a crescent shape.
Immediately afterwards, the fifteen towers began to move, slowly changing from a crescent shape to a circle.
Boom!
After it became circular, the vibration stopped, and the inscription continued to glow blue.
The two people and the cat entered the Triangle Tower that represented the full moon, the only one without a disc.
The ancient blue inscriptions reflected on the wall were quite beautiful.
Wang Xingyu scratched his head, full of doubt. There had been changes, but there was still no sign of the Yue Shen God Trial.
Ha~~
Suddenly, Big Yellow's panting sound rang out.
Danger! The two turned their heads simultaneously.
At the edge of their line of sight, an enormous white wolf's head suddenly appeared. The wolf was terrifying in size; its single eye seemed larger than a human being to the two of them.
White wolf fur floated in the air, and a flash of scarlet glint passed through its eyes.
The surrounding Soul Power surged violently—not caused by the White Wolf, but by Xiao Wu.
She directly summoned the full-force attack given to her by Lingxi. Soul Power formed a tornado, gathering towards Xiao Wu, and a terrifying phantom of a giant green dragon appeared on her forehead.
The white wolf moved.
It raised its claw, extending only one toe, and gently pressed it against the dragon's phantom, forcefully pushing the energy back into Xiao Wu's forehead.
!!??
A full-force attack from a Level 98 Titled Douluo was so easily suppressed?
This white wolf is probably at least Level 98, or even Level 99.
Beside them, a blue-green light spread out, accompanied by another surge of Soul Power.
Although it was unclear why Xiao Wu used the trump card left by Lingxi directly, Wang Xingyu immediately followed suit.
"Oh? There's more?" the white wolf spoke in human language, his tone mocking.
This time, the white wolf was too late to stop it, but judging from its expression, it didn't seem to intend to.
It opened its blood-red maw.
The fluctuations in Soul Power caused Wang Xingyu's blue-green hair to fly wildly. He had tried before, but if the level of his domain was not high enough, his hair wouldn't turn into long green hair. But now he couldn't think about that anymore.
A giant green fist appeared in front of Wang Xingyu; it was the full-force attack from Qing Heng.
The white wolf didn't dodge; it went straight for the prey and bit it.
Stop!
A clear, young male voice rang out.
As the sound faded, the two humans and the wolf, along with the giant energy fist, all seemed to be frozen in place, completely still.
A mere instant later, the white wolf broke free of its restraints. Clearly, the restraining force had little effect on it. Instead of attacking the two, it cursed, "You old geezer, why aren't you dead yet?"
A young man walked out from the side, dressed in white as snow, with crescent-shaped ornaments hanging from his ears, and smiled very brightly.
He said as he walked, "Don't worry, you damn dog, I'll definitely take you away first."
"Tch, call me then if you can beat me," the white wolf retorted.
The young man in white ignored him and snapped his fingers.
The giant green fist returned to Wang Xingyu's forehead, and the two of them regained their mobility.
The situation changed so quickly that both Wang Xingyu and Xiao Wu were a little stunned.
The young man in white looked at the white wolf and said, "Soul Beast? No wonder you didn't kill it."
The Soul Beast was clearly referring to Xiao Wu.
The white wolf snorted again.
Although Wang Xingyu was still confused about the situation, he immediately shielded Xiao Wu behind him and, steeling himself, clasped his hands in a fist and asked, "Senior, may I ask where this is? We've come to find the Yue Shen's inheritance."
"Oh, the legacy of the Yue Shen, huh? You actually know about this place. Congratulations, you've come to the right place. This is the site of the Yue Shen's legacy. And this dead dog and I are both high priests of the Yue Shen Goddess."
I can understand each word individually, but when they're put together, it's a bit hard to understand.
Both the human and the beast are high priests of the Yue Shen? And this wolf clearly has ill intentions.
Seeing the two men's puzzled expressions, the white-robed youth patiently explained, "Have you ever heard of Soul Beast with 990,000 years of cultivation? There seems to be one in the sea. This dog also has 990,000 years of cultivation. It came here trying to steal the Yue Shen's Divine Power and disrupt the Yue Shen Goddess's inheritance. In the end, I couldn't do it, so I had to use my Divine Power to turn it into Yue Shen priest as well, trapping it here."
"Tch, it's all because you wouldn't let me participate in the Yue Shen Assessment," said the White Wolf.
"That's just how the rules are. Why don't you just relearn how to be a human?"
"Rebuild yourself into a human? Do you think I'm stupid? To be hunted down and have my Soul Bone taken? You've used yourself as a price to trap me here. In less than a thousand years—no, just a few hundred—you'll probably be dead, won't you?"
"It's alright. I doubt you'll be around for many years after I die. Taking you with me isn't a loss. Besides, you can practice your skills more. Just look at this little girl."
The young man in white and the giant wolf started arguing again, their arguments sharp and neither willing to back down.
Wang Xingyu understood.
Like the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, the white giant wolf has a cultivation level of 990,000 years.
The difference is that the White Wolf went straight to the Yue Shen's legacy and even defeated the Yue Shen's High Priest.
The High Priestess of the Yue Shen paid a huge price to trap it, thus making it the High Priestess of the Yue Shen.
In a few hundred years, both the human and the wolf will perish.
No wonder the Goddess of Life said that the Yue Shen's inheritance was very special.
However, two questions remain: First, how could the High Priestess of the Yue Shen have failed to defeat the giant wolf? Second, didn't the Yue Shen intervene secretly?
