The King of Black Fog

Chapter 1277 - 566: Crossing Five Cities (Part 2)

Such a Divine Skill, once mastered, how does it compare against the 'Winner', which is stronger and which is weaker?

The island has no Fog Shadow, once someone lands on the island, as long as they reach a certain "most", they can take away another kind of 'most' scripture.

Anyone who is even slightly strong in the Heavenly Position can generally reach the speed of light and easily take one scripture.

For example, the "Body Scripture", refining the body to the level of supreme materials.

Who can resist such temptation?

These are bearable, as they appear too perfect and thus illusory, some ordinary ones tend to seem more tempting.

They have seen a Fog Shadow Island, where the Fog Shadow is the strongest mortal ever, the power of those who land on the island is suppressed to the mortal level.

If one can endure ten moves, twenty moves, a hundred moves, a thousand moves, and win the battle, there are rewards.

For Li Changzhou, this is more tempting than the [Hundred Treasure Box].

Of course, it's not for the rewards, but for the chance to battle the strongest mortal, such an opportunity may only exist here, only once in a lifetime.

It has great benefits for the upcoming great battle.

But he restrained himself.

This island is the strongest mortal, the next island might be the strongest physical body, and then the strongest mana, the strongest constitution... endlessly.

He wants to temper himself to be stronger, this bit of greed will be infinitely amplified in the Mother Womb of Creation.

In the end, he might die in a certain challenge, get lost in the Secret Sea, or encounter some strange mishap.

Apart from the Fog Shadow Island, the fish in the sea are also a test.

At first, you have to fish, later you often see fish, eventually, even exotic-colored fish jump onto the boat, making one think it's a reward.

After enduring for seven months like this, Li Qianxia could not be certain whether the Mother Womb Source Pool before her was real or fake.

More "memories" surged up.

"To go to the sixth Holy City, one must drink a mouthful of pool water." Turquoise Pool frowned.

She also suspected, thinking it still might be a test of the fifth Holy City, capturing the desperate desire of combatants to leave here and yet garner benefits.

Yang Qinglan wielded the Ruyi, performing "Information Reading", and a booklet flew over.

"Hm?" Suddenly the four of them felt a bit of reality.

The booklet was very thin, only one page, one line.

[Li Changzhou accompanied by Li Qianxia, Zhao Qingyao, Yang Qinglan, passed the Fifth City, Mother Womb Source Pool reveals]

Li Changzhou considered whether he could return to the Secret Sea, but feared not being able to return once he left, spending another seven months.

Though no one has reached the seventh city now, there's no time for him to waste.

"I'm going to give it a try." Li Changzhou said.

"If there's any problem, immediately go into 'Fake Winner State'!" Li Qianxia encouraged him with a clenched fist, "I suspect our ability to ascend the island scared the value game."

"...Then be more cautious."

Li Changzhou jumped off the flying boat, heading towards the Mother Womb Source Pool.

The mist enveloped, with his strength, it seemed like walking into a heavy fog, the world blurred.

Entering the mist, he could see more clearly, these mists were indeed filled with countless dense runes of the great path.

He tried to relax his breathing, just a gentle breath, and the flying boat behind him glowed, with the Primordial Divine Body's instinct of devouring showing signs of awakening.

Clearly, this mist had exceptional effects on the Primordial Divine Body.

If it were an ordinary constitution, just imagining how much it could improve is unfathomable.

Now, it is certain that this pool indeed has the power of Creation, the only doubt is, is this a reward or a temptation?

The "Journey to the West" had a Fake Ling Mountain, the fifth Holy City might not be absent of a fake endpoint.

Li Changzhou stepped forward, vigilant yet not overly anxious.

In the past seven months, the bright lamp on the front of the flying boat, from the initial brightness like a fiery sun, had become the faint glow of candlelight now, not his will weakening, but him truly growing stronger.

With a steady heart, external things became clear, he had already come to understand.

No longer needing to hypnotize himself every moment, he could firm his belief.

Arriving at the pool's edge, the pool water was clear, with a rainbow-like shimmering layer on its surface.

He attempted to step into the pool; as soon as he touched it, his body was bounced back.

Enlightenment came: This is a Mother Womb Source Pool prepared for living beings, non-biological entities cannot enter.

He attempted to reach out his hand, the fingers not enveloped by the war robe could touch the pool water.

"Ah!"

He took a sharp breath, his soul trembling.

The ultimate exaltation of life's essence, no life could refuse it, he felt completely transparent, as clear as a stream, as bright as sunlight.

Retracting his fingers, there was no trace of water on them, this is instinct, any living being would actively absorb the water from the Mother Womb Source Pool.

Even a simple grass would not leave a water trace, cherishing every drop of Nectar.

Li Changzhou returned to the flying boat.

"How about it?" Yang Qinglan asked.

He showed a pensive look and said: "The place has no problem, but whether it's a test or not is unknown."

"Why don't I try?" Li Qianxia suddenly proposed, "I'm not determined to reach the eighth Holy City and become a Saint, as long as I can help you."

Those strong with followers, surely along the way, have let many take risks in probing.

Li Changzhou thought thoroughly and eventually shook his head, denying Li Qianxia's proposal.

Li Qianxia walks the Holy Road just to help them, not caring about becoming a Saint, but he walks the Holy Road to protect Li Qianxia and them, how can he let her take unknown risks in return?

Nor can they capture a creature from the honey pot world as an experiment—living beings wanting to enter the fifth city must start from the first city, there are no shortcuts.

"So what now?" Li Qianxia asked.

The four found themselves in a situation of indecision, this might be the ultimate test of the fifth city, unrelated to will or strength, purely dependent on luck.
