Getting Stronger By Fighting

In no time, they had already gone their separate ways.

Due to Wang Zhan and his team’s high efficiency, they quickly found a strange tombstone with everyone’s combined efforts.

Looking ahead, the tombstone emitted waves of eerie fog, and the fog on the tombstone seemed to share a peculiar similarity with the fog around them, which suggested that the tombstone was clearly the Eye of the Formation controlling this area.

Wang Zhan swiftly raised the Poseidon’s Trident in his hand and fiercely smashed it down onto the tombstone before him.

With a loud bang, cracks appeared on the Poseidon’s Trident, and immediately, the tombstone exploded, causing the fog to vanish in an instant, reverting everything to its original state.

Wang Zhan slightly squinted his eyes, a faint smile appearing at the corner of his lips as he calmly spoke, "It seems things aren’t as complicated as we imagined. Now that we’ve broken the formation, let’s quickly meet up with Zhao Feiyu and Li Du. However, you all should be well aware that this place reeks of strangeness, so we must be extra cautious and ensure the identities of those around us to avoid being tricked again!"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Meanwhile, Sword Spirit and Fire Qilin had already left first.

But Xiang Tian, being self-aware, stayed behind Wang Zhan all the while.

He clearly knew that if it weren’t for him sticking close to Wang Zhan, he would surely be in a state of helplessness within this barrier, struggling to find any breakthrough points.

"Brother Wang, nothing unusual happened around here. Do you think we might have come to the wrong place, which is why there’s no sign of change? But if that’s the case, I wonder if Sword Spirit and the others found anything new."

The current place was no different from the area they were in before, and there were no guardian beasts here, nor any danger present.

Yet, considering the strangeness of this ruin, surely some abnormalities would arise.

Wang Zhan didn’t speak for a moment; his gaze remained focused on the area at hand. He noticed the structures here seemed identical, with no distinctions to be seen, everything just looked the same.

As these thoughts occurred, Wang Zhan turned his head to glance at Xiang Tian behind him, only to find that Xiang Tian, who had been following him, was already nowhere to be seen.

Looking at the empty space behind him, Wang Zhan’s breath instantly became much heavier.

Though he worried about Zhao Feiyu and Li Du, they were not only well-equipped with absolute strength, but their temperaments were also rather composed, and their minds were too intelligent. So Wang Zhan just needed to quietly search for them, believing they could hang on until they were found.

After all, previously in this area, the two were trapped for a whole year but never backed down, nor did they leave. But the most troubling now was that Xiang Tian suddenly disappeared without a trace, which was no good news for Wang Zhan, given Xiang Tian’s displayed strength. Naturally, Wang Zhan was extremely concerned if he indeed vanished.

Moreover, he lacked any contingency plans for such cases.

For Xiang Tian, this was indeed a huge test.

Wang Zhan slightly squinted his eyes, then spoke again: "Xiang Tian, stop playing around, come out quickly."

It was clear, in Wang Zhan’s view, that Xiang Tian might be deliberately playing hide and seek with him.

Which was why he vanished immediately.

Of course, this scenario didn’t exist; although Wang Zhan harbored some wishful thinking, he knew inside that Xiang Tian, though somewhat immature, wouldn’t do such silly things in this situation, was he asking for trouble?

Sure enough, there was no response in this area.

Not even the figures of Sword Spirit and Fire Qilin were visible.

Wang Zhan could only temporally return the way they came, aiming to quickly find Xiang Tian or trace some clues, only then could he swiftly reunite with Xiang Tian and resolve all these matters.

But what Wang Zhan couldn’t have imagined was that the path they used had already disappeared, and seemingly there was only one path ahead, could it be that he again entered into a Maze?

Wang Zhan’s heart was once again in his throat, this is indeed the eeriest ruin he had ever seen, not even finding such existence before.

With these thoughts, Wang Zhan quickened his pace; regardless of the situation here, he had to quickly identify the scenario and then meet with the others, as long as they were all together, they’d fear nothing, even if the sky came falling down.

In the blink of an eye, Wang Zhan had leaped several thousand meters away, but nothing seemed to change, and there was still just a road ahead, seemingly regardless of his explorations, everything stayed the same.

Wang Zhan clenched his fists tightly, and Poseidon’s Trident already appeared in his hand.

As his companions increased, Wang Zhan seldom ventured into any ruin or barrier alone, but this time he had no choice, especially now when it was unclear how his companions were feeling.

With these thoughts, Wang Zhan once again slightly squinted his eyes, speaking to himself: "What a hateful place, it seems way more complex than I initially imagined, Xiang Tian, you must hang in there..."

Wang Zhan silently muttered to himself.

His primary concern was naturally Xiang Tian.

But worrying served no purpose now.

In an instant, things changed before Wang Zhan’s eyes, hearing a sudden rush of footsteps, a figure rapidly approached Wang Zhan, and his gaze landed on him.

The person approaching was Xiang Tian.

Yet, Wang Zhan didn’t exhibit the expected warmth, instead, he looked at Xiang Tian with full vigilance, directly asking: "Where did you just go?"

"Just now?"

Xiang Tian was taken aback, his eyes shifted slightly, then he smiled and said: "Not far ahead is a palace, I went inside for a quick look, and there are quite a few divine weapons and tools in there, along with some strange statues, I wonder if you’re interested in checking it out with me?"

Wang Zhan shook his head, coldly responding: "Impossible, you’ve continually been following behind me, how could you suddenly be ahead? Besides, there’s a considerable difference in our strength, so even if you used all your speed, it wouldn’t be possible. Don’t play tricks on me anymore, and I’ve realized this ruin is filled with doubts, so tell me your real intention, or rather, who are you?"

The fake Xiang Tian slightly frowned, not expecting Wang Zhan to see through his disguise.

In the next moment, Xiang Tian transformed into a man in black, wielding a large scythe.

He stood arrogantly in mid-air, a cold smile on his lips as he disdainfully said: "Alright then, didn’t expect your perception to be so strong, to know I’m not your friend? Seems your character surpasses my imagination, but since it’s like this, I can only use the most troublesome method to solve you, which means killing you!"

"After all, this is a forbidden sea area, so no one can easily come here!"

"All of you have violated the rules, so don’t blame me for being ruthless!"

While speaking, the figure soared into the sky, and the scythe in his hand slashed down towards Wang Zhan with astonishing speed.

Fortunately, Wang Zhan’s reaction speed wasn’t slow, and within an instant, he had dodged to the side.

He looked at the man disdainfully and said directly: "Alright, you damned bastard, I initially didn’t want to bother with you, but since you struck first, then don’t blame me for being ungracious."

"How about this, tell me where my friends are, and maybe I’ll spare you, what do you think?"

The man slightly squinted, showing he didn’t care for Wang Zhan.

He shot up into the sky again, quickly reached in front of Wang Zhan, and said again: "Then let’s see if you have the capability! You think you, a mere mortal, can kill me? Absolutely laughable!"

Before Wang Zhan could react, the figure was already in front of him, swinging the scythe at his neck.

But Wang Zhan quickly lifted his Poseidon’s Trident, meeting the scythe instantly.

At that moment, Wang Zhan even felt the ground tremble.

Which showed how terrifying their strengths were.

The man quickly retreated a few steps, squinting slightly, his gaze falling upon Wang Zhan, then slowly said: "Alright kid, looks like I underestimated you, you actually possess Poseidon’s Trident!"

"But I can see, you’re definitely not from the sea domain!"
