Getting Stronger By Fighting

Wang Zhan nodded.

Since the Hexagonal Golden Snake had already made concessions, Wang Zhan naturally wouldn’t press the issue. Moreover, the Hexagonal Golden Snake’s strength was evident here. If I truly confronted it head-to-head, there wouldn’t be much benefit for Wang Zhan. It would merely turn into another stalemate on the board.

In addition, Wang Zhan had Xiang Tian by his side, and he must consider Xiang Tian’s situation. If he truly fought the Hexagonal Golden Snake, such terrifying intimidation wasn’t something Xiang Tian could withstand.

Thinking of all this, Wang Zhan didn’t waste any more time. His gaze had already fallen on Xiang Tian beside him, and he slowly began speaking: "Since we’ve now determined the location, let’s not continue wasting time here. Let’s join everyone and leave the ruins as quickly as possible."

As he spoke, the two of them were already heading out of the Great Hall.

The Hexagonal Golden Snake had no intention of pursuing them.

Wang Zhan understood that, regardless of what the ruins originally held, they were now occupied by the Hexagonal Golden Snake. Everything here belonged to the Hexagonal Golden Snake. Besides, the Hexagonal Golden Snake was just a step away from ascending to be a dragon, so Wang Zhan naturally wouldn’t want to waste time with him further. It’s beneficial to both parties.

After leaving the Great Hall, the two of them walked toward the northwest.

Xiang Tian’s gaze fell on Wang Zhan, and he directly asked, "Brother Wang, why didn’t we fight the Hexagonal Golden Snake to the end just now? That guy is not your match, even if it came down to the last fight, you’d surely have the upper hand. After all, you possess divine weapons from the sea domain, namely the Poseidon’s Trident and the Crystal Armor. I can see these items can suppress the Hexagonal Golden Snake to a certain extent."

It’s undeniable; Xiang Tian indeed has keen insight.

The main reason the Hexagonal Golden Snake didn’t wish to continue fighting Wang Zhan wasn’t just because Wang Zhan possessed divine weapons from the sea domain.

More greatly, it’s because there is Dragon Clan power within Wang Zhan’s body, and the Hexagonal Golden Snake, seeing that it’s about to ascend, can naturally sense the terrifying aspect of this power. Moreover, since the Dragon Clan has inherent suppression over the Snake Clan, this is also the main reason the Hexagonal Golden Snake chose not to continue fighting Wang Zhan.

In an instant, Wang Zhan and Xiang Tian had already left the area.

Looking around, the surroundings indeed have become much clearer, with visibility even growing higher.

"Brother Wang, I’ve thought of a better idea. After everyone has gathered, our combat power will naturally be somewhat enhanced. Why don’t we return to that Great Hall and continue battling the Hexagonal Golden Snake? I’m sure he’s not a match for you all, and we can retreat safely!"

"Moreover, whatever the Hexagonal Golden Snake took will naturally be returned! In this way, our trip to the ruins won’t be in vain, given the danger of near-death experiences here, don’t you think so?"

Xiang Tian spoke again.

Obviously, no one wants to return empty-handed.

Wang Zhan shook his head, lightly saying, "Your brain doesn’t need to think about too many things. I know the Hexagonal Golden Snake’s strength better than anyone. Despite our recent clash, even I have significant disparities with the Hexagonal Golden Snake."

"Though the Sword Spirit and Fire Qilin have strengths surpassing mine, in a real fight, if I use all my trump cards, I can endure before them for a period. But in the Hexagonal Golden Snake’s hands, it would be entirely one-sided, being completely overwhelmed. If not for my use of the skill taught by the Azure Dragon Venerable, causing him to sense the dragon’s power, he wouldn’t have easily let us leave, and we might have died inside..."

Even when Wang Zhan thinks about it, he feels a sense of fear.

The power of the Hexagonal Golden Snake far exceeds his imagination.

How could he possibly risk the people beside him?

Xiang Tian sighed helplessly, words failing to leave his mouth.

Obviously, he didn’t want to leave like this, but the facts were right there. So even if he didn’t want to do this, he must. Wang Zhan already spoke, and he’s also come to understand the Hexagonal Golden Snake’s strength.

Although Xiang Tian wished to say more, he remained silent.

In an instant, Wang Zhan and Xiang Tian were swiftly heading northwest.

Within half an hour, they met with Fire Qilin and others.

It turns out Fire Qilin and the others had already gathered here, as the fog within the ruins had long dispersed, allowing them to quickly connect. This was beneficial for them.

"Mr. Wang, we had already gathered, but we hadn’t heard from you. We’ve been searching the area for you, and now seeing you is truly great..."

Beside him, Zhao Feiyu hurried toward Wang Zhan, following with a few words.

Li Du, arms crossed, said, "It should be a case of good things come in pairs; without the fog to trap us, we can quickly leave. But we haven’t found everything in the ruins, so we need to increase the search effort and fully investigate!"

Nearby, several nodded in agreement.

However, Wang Zhan shook his head, lightly saying, "I’ve gained a basic understanding of the situation in the ruins. Not far ahead lies a Great Hall, within which a nearly dragonized Hexagonal Golden Snake resides. It has been in the area for years, so everything should have become his possession. We should avoid seeking trouble, as his strength far exceeds what we imagined. If we clashed, escaping unscathed would be difficult..."

Everyone exchanged looks, eventually nodding.

Since Wang Zhan said as much, it was undoubtedly for a reason.

After the discussion, they headed toward the ruins’ entrance.

Even if nothing was found, they solved the ruins’ mystery.

In an instant, Wang Zhan and the others reached outside.

Glancing ahead, the ruins still emanated an aura of mystery, undoubtedly attracting future explorers unaware of its truth.

Fire Qilin spoke slowly, "Do we still need to deal with the Dragon Clan? I wish not to linger in the sea domain; the place heavily suppresses me. Continuous stay risks diminishing my strength. It’s truly aggravating..."

Wang Zhan smiled, shaking his head. He continued, "We have no Dragon Clan members around and, before coming, I briefly discussed with the Black Dragon Clan Leader that if we emerge safely, we won’t waste further time in the sea domain. Therefore, no need to bid farewell, just leave directly."

Nearby, everyone nodded.

Xiang Tian and Zhao Feiyu had some friction with the Dragon Clan, eager to leave the sea domain and sever ties.

After understanding Wang Zhan’s intentions, they prepared to follow him, instantly departing the sea domain.

Unexpectedly, as they stepped forward, a sound of earth cracks arose behind them. A gigantic vortex appeared in the sky, seemingly connecting the sea domain with the Sky.

The vortex’s emergence was accompanied by streaks of lightning.

It made people shiver.

Wang Zhan slightly squinted his eyes, realizing they hadn’t yet left the ruins area. With the vortex overhead, it might be triggered by something within the ruins.

Wang Zhan slightly squinted his eyes. Just as he was about to speak, Xiang Tian’s voice came to his ears: "It seems the Hexagonal Golden Snake is going through tribulations. Can he withstand such heavenly might? Why don’t we stay and watch the show? If he perishes here, we’ll be immediately at a position of advantage and quickly enter the ruins to see if there’s anything we can take away?"

Zhao Feiyu nodded quickly, evidently in agreement with Xiang Tian.

Wang Zhan slightly squinted his eyes, and his gaze became much more solemn.

After a moment, Wang Zhan spoke slowly: "The Hexagonal Golden Snake bears us no great malice, and if he hadn’t dispersed the fog, we’d still be trapped in the ruins, unable to escape. So the Hexagonal Golden Snake can be considered a friend, not an enemy..."

"Hence, we can’t just watch idly. If necessary, we must immediately assist the Hexagonal Golden Snake, ensuring he doesn’t perish during tribulations!"
