Chapter 712: Gorge

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Powerful. Ice-cold. Suffocating!
Under the effect of this terrifying power, Amanda felt that every single part of her body was shivering and her soul about to leave her body.
“It’s that divinity! He’s always been following us!”
In a split second, she quickly thought of that mysterious person who fleetingly appeared in the bazaar.
Lauder’s movements also stopped as he glanced behind, his voice carrying some grief and indignation. “Sure enough… you won’t let me go!”
Step! Step!
Accompanying the footsteps that seemed to be stepping on their hearts, a person in black slowly appeared.
“Who are you?” Lauder roared and raised the scimitar in his hand. “Secret Technique: Red Moon!”
A blood-red glow appeared on the blade, and Amanda even seemed to see the faint outline of a red moon.
“L-Legend domain?”
Her pupils shrank, knowing that he had used some kind of secret technique and the half-artifact to reach a Legend’s strength.
The surrounding environment transformed, like the coming of night. Within the dark curtain, only a red moon ruled.
“All of you, die!” Lauder roared, and his scimitar instantly transformed into sinister moonlight that was omnipresent and could destroy anything.
“Red Moon domain? Nice weapon. When it was first forged, a Legend’s blood, tears, and efforts, as well as all his inspirations toward his domain, were included!”
The person in black was engulfed by the torrential moonlight, but seemed to have no reaction as he suddenly raised his right hand.
His right hand was so delicately white and slender that even a lady’s hand paled in comparison. At the moment it entered the blood-red moonlight, the domain’s entire sky became stagnant.
Crack! Crack!
The red moon immediately shattered and revealed the actual scene.
“You…”
Lauder’s face became extremely terrified as he looked at the person in black gripping his blade with just three fingers, any attempt at pulling it back completely useless.
“If you want to become a Legend, you must walk your own path! Although this half-artifact is decent, it will ultimately be your shackle!”
With that indifferent voice, the person in black twisted his hand once.
Lauder screamed as the scimitar escaped his hand, vomiting blood as his body flew back and fell onto the ground.
Impossible!
Amanda was nearly lifeless upon seeing this.
Lauder was a Quasi-Legend! With the boosts of the half-artifact and secret technique, he could rival a Legend!
However, such power actually failed in front of this mysterious person?
Not only was he defeated, it was so simple and without any resistance, like an adult disciplining a child.
Lauder coughed up blood as he half-squatted onto the ground, his eyes fixed on the mysterious person, and suddenly said, “Divine fire?!”
In order to ignite divine fire, how many Sons of Purgatory has he killed?
Amanda’s heart sank. Seeing the defeat of Lauder, she did not dare to get her hopes up.
This enemy was unexpectedly so powerful, making it difficult for her to develop any thought of resistance.
“Saying so much, don’t you just want to kill me and plunder my divinity?” Lauder’s sole eye was blood-red. “It’s useless no matter how much you plunder. Death God Jay will still kill you! You are definitely not his rival!”
“The laments and curses of a weakling…”
The person in black casually flung the scimitar in his hand, making it to land beside Lauder. “But I don’t have any desire to kill now. All of you, follow me!”
He pointed with his hand, and it shockingly included Amanda and everyone else
“Leave?” Amanda felt very baffled. This was the first time she saw a Son of Purgatory that could control his desire to kill. “Go where?”
“Scarlet Gorge”
The person in black lifted open his cloak and revealed a very young but pale face. “By the way, you can call me Zorro!”
“In other words, we’ve become your captives, Sir Zorro?” Clegg tried to make his voice seem respectful, even using his glances to silently curb Michael’s small actions.
“You can say that!” Zorro grinned and nodded. “You’re still slightly beneficial to me. How’s that? Do you choose to die now or follow me?”
When faced with such a life-and-death decision, even Lauder lapsed into silence.
Not long later, the small team of six once again began their journey.
But two of the members had been replaced.
Fang Yuan was silent. Using subtle expressions and movements, he gave the false impression of distress and fear.
Instead, his spiritual will was endlessly calculating. Very good… my concealment won’t even be exposed by the Slaughter God. He’s heading to the Scarlet Gorge. Seems that he’s obtained a revelation of destiny or other intelligence that Ramon fell in the depths of the Demon Territory?
Regarding the choice of this sworn enemy, Fang Yuan admired it a little. He had really regarded the most dangerous place as the safest place.
…
Scarlet Gorge.
This was a prominent landmark within the Demon Territory.
Due to the changes in the terrain, it had produced a massive fault zone.
After many investigations by the adventurers, churches, and kingdoms, they had publicly recognized this as a dividing line in the Demon Territory.
After the Scarlet Gorge, it was the depths of the Demon Territory, which was the original territory of the Celtic Empire. The number of Evil Demons and their levels had all increased greatly with the worm-breeding Netherworld river.
Even a Legend might not be able to fully retreat after entering. This was a definite forbidden zone to any human forces.
Aw! Aw!
In the sky, the strong scarlet red radiance did not disperse and even occasional flames dropped down.
On the scorching hot ground, a group of a hundred small Evil Demons were patrolling under the lead of a huge Evil Demon, occasionally erupting in a fight with other Evil Demons.
Suddenly, the two parties that were fighting seemed to detect something and dispersed in all directions. They were causing a huge ruckus, as if they had seen a natural enemy.
Rumble! Rumble!
The ground shook slightly, and a giant demon appeared from the horizon. Its figure became larger and larger before finally becoming a small mountain.
It looked like an elephant with black skin all over its body, and its six tusks were as white as jade, with thorns and brambles on its body.
On the elephant’s back, one could faintly make out a few human silhouettes.
“It’s worthy of being a high-level Evil Demon. Even the large Evil Demons escaped in fear!”
Amanda looked on at this scene, and when she compared it to her being chaotically chased about by the Evil Demon army, her feelings were complex looking at Zorro’s back.
This person’s strength was practically unfathomable.
This giant evil elephant’s strength definitely exceeded that of large Evil Demons’, even that of high-level professionals, and was equivalent to a Quasi-Legends’. Even though its body had divinity, it was still subdued by him to become a mount.
Although the number of Evil Demons at the periphery were fewer, most high-level Evil Demons had intelligence and would wander around. Those adventurers who encountered them could only accept their bad luck and possibly be exterminated.
But encountering Zorro was instead this giant Evil Demon elephant’s misfortune.
With it as transportation, the dangers along the way were far fewer, similar to going on an outing, as they reached the Scarlet Gorge.
“We’ve finally arrived!” Seeing the vast and mighty mountains and valleys, Zorro smiled.
“Sir Zorro, what do you want us to do?” Amanda looked at the surroundings and walked forward to ask. “With our strength, I’m afraid we’ll just be a burden.”
Once this was mentioned, even Lauder, who was resting at one side with a cold look, pricked his ears.
“In this world, not everything can be accomplished with just power!”
Zorro slightly smiled. “The reason you’re here is to find something, or perhaps… someone!
“Even though I can impel the Evil Demons, with the power and rules he has, he can still actively evade me even when he’s in deep slumber!”
“He?”
Amanda clearly felt that something was not right.
In the language of this world, the ‘he’ used here was a completely different pronunciation.
However, just by thinking about it, why would an ordinary person choose to sleep inside the Demon Territory?
At this time, Lauder finally could not stand it and asked, “Who is… he?”
“You’ll know shortly!”
Zorro shook his head, seeming very mysterious.
At the same time.
In another location of this huge gorge.
A large team slowly approached, and nearly everyone was injured.
Even though they were elites, passing through the Demon Territory still caused them to pay a heavy price.
“Lord Jay is the ruler of death! With his name, even the brilliance of the sun must concede!”
Under the declaration of a person wearing a huge black robe and a sheep skull necklace, looking like an evil cult priest, the gazes of many Death God believers became scorching hot, and they swarmed into the Scarlet Gorge.
“According to the guidance of the Death God and the confession of that pastor, the clue regarding the Sun God lies within the Scarlet Gorge!”
The gaze of a Death God disciple twinkled. “What if I obtain the brilliance of the Sun?”
This was a chaotic era. When the Gods descended, the original faiths became horribly shaken.
Furthermore, the successful apotheosis of a Son of Purgatory made the mortals realize that the Gods were actually not that eminent and unapproachable, and many ambitious parties appeared.
There was activity simmering below the surface even within the original believers of the Gods.
His heart was burning, and while thinking of his opportunities, he slowly entered the depths.
Suddenly, the light of a sharp blade appeared behind him and penetrated his heart.
“It’s an ambush!”
He wanted to scream but could only spit out bloody foam as he weakly collapsed.
Before the glow of his eyes dissipated, he saw a figure that was identical to a Death God believer, and his hand was holding a sharp blade that was dripping blood.
This believer who managed to sneak into the Church of Death muttered, “Praise Lord Zorro, the Slaughter God! In your name, all the Death God believers will experience the ruthlessness of slaughter!”
As the Slaughter God, Zorro had powers like concealment and conspiracy, causing his believers to be capable of deception.
Similar slaughters occurred within the Scarlet Gorge.
It had to be said the Scarlet Gorge was really too big.
Even if two Evil Gods had brought all of their believers here, the effect of this place was still far from being discovered.
