Chapter 371: The Legend of the Tomb of the Sovereign. The Key to the Inheritance
The Dimension of Slaughter.
In a small tavern.
Toby and Edessa were sitting at a small wine table. There was another person with them.
It was an ordinary-looking man.
This man was the one who had used the air magic transformation spell to disguise himself.
He had already formed a feud with the Divine Kingdom of Slaughter in the trial plane. The people who had escaped must have already told them everything.
Although Du Lu had returned to the ranching space, the people who had returned might have already recorded his appearance and spread it around.
Joelson could not help but lament that the Slaughter Plane was indeed worthy of being one of the main planes. It was far from being comparable to the lower planes.
Even though it was just a waiter in a small tavern, he actually had the strength of a divine-domain.
The Slaughter Plane was different from what he had imagined. It was also filled with vitality. There were also forests, lakes, oceans, and grasslands.
According to Toby, most places in the Plane of Slaughter were similar to other dimensions, and the laws of other elements wouldn’t be affected here.
However, in the center of the Plane of Slaughter, around the God of Slaughter’s Divine Kingdom, there was indeed a blood-red color. There was no life at all, and even the other laws would stagnate.
Joelson began to look forward to it.
He didn’t know what the Plane of Destruction would look like.
Listening to the noisy conversations in the tavern, Joelson’s mood became comfortable.
Ever since he left the central continent, he hadn’t felt the aura of this kind of life for a long time.
Toby looked at Joelson and introduced, “In the Plane of Slaughter, other than the major families, the most powerful are the four great empires.”
Joelson was stunned for a moment, a hint of doubt in his expression. He asked, “There are empires in the Plane of Slaughter? Didn’t the God of Slaughter rule over the entire Plane of Slaughter?”
He had always thought that the sovereign had ruled over the entire Plane of Slaughter.
He hadn’t expected that there would actually be empires in the Plane of Slaughter.
Toby nodded and said, “Not only are there four great empires, but there are also some small kingdoms in some remote places.”
“The God of Slaughter doesn’t care?” Joelson asked.
Toby laughed and said, “No, the God of Slaughter doesn’t have the interest to care about these countries. Every main god has a different way of becoming a sovereign. Some sovereigns rely on faith to become a god. Such a sovereign will control the entire plane, or even other planes, because believers are very important to them.”
“But the God of Slaughter doesn’t rely on faith to become a god, so he doesn’t care about the existence of other empires in the Plane of Slaughter.”
“But in the Plane of Slaughter, whether it’s the major families, the four empires, or those small kingdoms, they are all loyal to the God of Slaughter. At least, on the surface.”
Joelson nodded slightly, having a rough understanding of the Plane of Slaughter in his heart.
“Then won’t your family be in danger?” Joelson asked.
Toby shook his head and said, “No. The group of people who are chasing me made a decision on their own. The God of Slaughter won’t care about such trivial matters. If I’m strong enough, I’ll kill them instead. The God of Slaughter won’t care too much.”
At this time, the tavern suddenly became quiet.
Everyone stopped talking and gathered around a table.
A voice came from the center of the crowd.
“Have you heard? About the tomb of the sovereign?”
That person said in a low voice.
“The tomb of the sovereign? What happened?” Someone in the crowd asked.
Joelson was also curious. He asked Toby, “What’s the tomb of the sovereign?”
He didn’t quite understand. Wasn’t the God of Slaughter still alive?
How could there be a tomb?
Toby seemed to have seen through Joelson’s thoughts. He shook his head and said, “The tomb of the sovereign isn’t the tomb of the current God of Slaughter. It’s the tomb of the previous God of Slaughter.”
“The previous one?”
“That’s right. No one knows the exact time, but about ten million years ago, the previous God of Slaughter died for some unknown reason. Before he died, he used the last of his divine power to build his own tomb. This is also a very famous place in the Plane of Slaughter.”
Toby nodded as he spoke, his expression somewhat strange.
Beside him, Edessa also had a strange expression, as if she wanted to say something.
Joelson didn’t care.
At this time, the person in the crowd continued to speak.
“According to legend, the previous God of Slaughter left his legacy in the sovereign’s tomb. You should all have heard of it, right?”
“Just last month, the sovereign’s tomb suddenly split open into a huge crack. At that time, blood-red light blossomed, and three streams of light flew out from the crack!”
As he spoke, that person suddenly stopped speaking.
The surrounding crowd instantly grew anxious. They hurriedly said, “And then? What happened?”
Joelson couldn’t help but find it amusing. This scene was somewhat like a bard telling a story.
As expected, even these demigods couldn’t help but like to listen to stories.
Hearing the urging of the surrounding crowd, that person spread out his hands and shook his head. “And then? And then nothing happened.”
Everyone booed, feeling very disappointed.
“That’s it?”
“Then what else did you say? What did I think it was?”
That person laughed and said, “However, I have a very reliable source of information.”
“It is said that the three rays of light that flew out from the sovereign’s tomb that day were the keys to opening the sovereign’s inheritance!”
As soon as this news came out, everyone immediately went into an uproar.
“What did you say?”
“Are you for real? You can’t be lying to us, right?”
“I was also in the sovereign’s tomb that day. The situation back then was indeed the same as he described. However, whether or not there was a sovereign’s legacy, and whether or not those three streaks of light were the keys to the legacy, I don’t know.”
Another person in the crowd said.
For a moment, everyone became even more excited.
“It really is like this?”
“Those three streaks of light might really be the keys to the legacy!”
“I don’t know where they flew off to. If I knew, I would definitely go fight for it!”
“With your little bit of power, you still want to fight for the sovereign’s legacy? You’d be lucky if you didn’t lose your little life.”
“I know as well, but that is a sovereign’s legacy! If you acquire it, you might have a chance to become a sovereign! Even if you can’t become a sovereign, you’ll definitely become a peak highgod!”
The tavern suddenly fell silent. Everyone shut their mouths, no longer speaking.
The speaker realized that he had said the wrong thing. The God of Slaughter was still alive, and he didn’t dare to speak carelessly about becoming a sovereign. He hurriedly paid the bill and walked out of the tavern.
Hearing this, Toby’s expression became very strange.
Beside him, Edessa was the same. She seemed to be unable to hold back her words and stared at Toby with a face full of resentment.
Joelson looked at the two of them. He didn’t know what had happened to the brother and sister.
“Sigh!”
Toby seemed to feel too uncomfortable being stared at. He sighed.
Looking at Joelson, he said, “Joelson, come with me. I have something for you.”
