"Then tell me, how did you come by Poseidon’s Trident?"
Wang Zhan stared at the man in front of him for quite a while before finally frowning and saying, "These matters are not something you need to worry about. You just need to tell me the whereabouts of my friend, otherwise don’t expect to leave here unharmed. I swear I’ll tear you to pieces..."
A cold smile appeared at the corner of Wang Zhan’s mouth, and he immediately soared skyward. He raised his hand, and the Poseidon’s Trident was already in his hand. With a loud bang, Wang Zhan was once again entwined with the scythe in the man’s hand.
Immediately, the scythe in the man’s hand shattered into pieces.
Clearly, the scythe was no match for Poseidon’s Trident.
But Wang Zhan could also see that the scythe was definitely a divine weapon.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t have achieved such an effect.
As the thunderous sound echoed, the Poseidon’s Trident in Wang Zhan’s hand was already in front of the man. If Wang Zhan hadn’t held back in time, the man would have been dead. Wang Zhan slightly squinted his eyes, then slowly said, "Can you tell me the location of my friend now? If you continue to stubbornly refuse and keep gritting your teeth, then don’t blame me for being rude to you!"
"You should be aware of the gap in power between us. With just your words, you cannot block my path. There is only one road in front of you, and that is a dead end!"
As expected, the man gasped deeply and tightly clenched his teeth, word by word saying, "This place is actually a huge illusion. If you want to find a way out of here, you must maintain absolute consciousness. Otherwise, you’ll sink deeper and deeper, and it’s extremely hard to get away, so I advise you that your friend is probably already lost to the illusion. It’s hardly feasible to leave unharmed, so I suggest you don’t entertain any fantasies here."
Wang Zhan hesitated for a moment and asked again, "Then how do we walk out of the illusion in front of us?"
Although the man in front of them spouted a lot of useless nonsense, Wang Zhan had absolute confidence in everyone around him. Xiang Tian probably also had his own fortune, so surely nothing would easily happen.
Thinking of this, Wang Zhan’s gaze also became much colder.
He had to reunite with everyone around him as soon as possible.
The man, biting his teeth tightly, finally agreed and said, "Since you say so, I won’t waste words with you. But you must keep your word. If I tell you your friend’s location and you don’t keep your promise, don’t blame me for being rude to you!"
Wang Zhan grinned and, with a swift motion, thrust the Poseidon’s Trident onto the man’s shoulder. The man hadn’t even reacted before a wave of pain spread through all his nerves, and he began to howl.
Wang Zhan took a step forward and said again, "I’ve already told you, don’t talk useless nonsense to me. Yet, you insisted on babbling here, so don’t blame me."
"Tell me now your friend’s location and how to get out of here, otherwise I won’t let you off easily!"
The man gritted his teeth and finally agreed.
Instantly, the man slowly said, "It’s actually very simple to break out of the illusion. You just need to tightly close your eyes, then ignore all these conditions around you, and believe you will soon be able to get out of here quickly. It’s quite simple."
Though it sounds extremely simple, Wang Zhan knew well that doing it is extremely difficult.
Moreover, who can truly remain calm and composed and meditate here?
After all, all his friends have encountered trouble, even Wang Zhan doesn’t have such a mindset.
Let alone anyone else.
Now it seems that everything is much harder than he imagined.
After hesitating for quite a while, he finally continued, "Fine, but I must try first. If it doesn’t work as you say, don’t blame me. I’ll make you feel the agony of living!"
The man hurriedly nodded, covering his wound, his gaze constantly focused on Wang Zhan.
But it was clear from his face that there was a lingering resentment.
If it weren’t for Wang Zhan holding Poseidon’s Trident, how could he have ended up in this situation? So, in the end, Wang Zhan is merely relying on the strength of the weapon in his hand.
However, as long as Wang Zhan and his team remain in the ruins, he has plenty of ways to make Wang Zhan surrender obediently, ensuring he won’t have a good outcome in the future.
In the blink of an eye, Wang Zhan closed his eyes, feeling himself entering a state of complete Spirit Void, with the surrounding environment changing rapidly. Suddenly, a sharp sound reached his ears; the formation burst open, and Wang Zhan found himself back in the original area.
He glanced around, quickly locking his gaze on Xiang Tian. It turned out Xiang Tian was never far from him, but because of the formation, they were directly separated, making it impossible for Wang Zhan to locate him immediately.
Fortunately, now that the formation is broken, Xiang Tian, who is closest to him, can also escape its control.
The man’s gaze fell on Wang Zhan, and he quickly said, "Now that you have successfully escaped from this formation, can you let me go soon? You must keep your promise!"
Wang Zhan hesitated for a moment, then asked again, "There’s one more thing. Where are the rest of my friends? If you tell me their locations, perhaps I’ll let you go."
"You..."
The man’s face turned extremely ugly as he clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth, "You damned bastard, you’re clearly deceiving me. This isn’t what you said before. Didn’t you claim that as long as I helped you break the illusion in front of us and find your friends, you’d let me off the hook? But now you’re going back on your word. How can you even say that?!"
Unfortunately, Wang Zhan’s face showed no emotional fluctuation.
He remained as calm as ever.
There’s no need to show any courtesy to the man in front of him.
Moreover, the man in front isn’t anything good either.
If he didn’t have his own methods, how could he leave this place unscathed?
So all of this is just the man’s consequences of his own actions.
Wang Zhan didn’t waste any more words on him and said directly, "Anyway, the path is already laid before you. How you choose is entirely your own problem, so I don’t need to say anything more. You can think about it yourself. As for which direction to take, it’s all your own concern."
The man hesitated for a moment, glanced at the scar on his shoulder, gritted his teeth, and said, "Alright, you got skills. Since that’s the case, I won’t waste more words with you. I’ll take you to reunite with your companions, but I hope this time you’ll keep your word and not let me down. Otherwise, even if it costs me my life, I won’t let you all off easily!"
Wang Zhan showed complete disdain, not considering the man in front of him a threat.
Admittedly, the man’s strength is far beyond his imagination.
If they were to fight in another area, Wang Zhan might not be entirely confident in seriously injuring him so quickly.
But here in the sea domain, Wang Zhan has an absolute advantage.
After all, he holds Poseidon’s Trident, which not only allows him to exert his full power in the sea domain but also suppresses the sea domain dwellers to a certain extent, enabling him to defeat the man in front of him.
Although it seems a bit unfair, as long as he can defeat the man in front of him, it’s enough.
Ultimately, people only care about the final outcome, not the process.
As long as he can use external forces, it’s all his own strength.
Meanwhile, Xiang Tian quickly walked to Wang Zhan’s side, still unsure about what had just happened. He only felt that everything went black and he was already at an unfamiliar space.
Wang Zhan patted his shoulder and said slowly, "As long as you’re okay, that’s enough. I was a bit worried about you just now since you suddenly disappeared from my line of sight. Even now, I don’t know what happened, but it seems my worries were unfounded..."
Xiang Tian shrugged, sighed helplessly, "It’s just because I’m not strong enough, which caused Brother Wang so much trouble. If I could become an expert like the Sword Spirit, perhaps I wouldn’t make you worry so much. But rest assured, Brother Wang, just give me some time, and I will definitely continue to grow in the future!"
