Chapter 3296: AttributesEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Xius also stared at Fang Heng and Zane through the mirror.
Although it was only a projection, Xius still radiated a terrifying coercion aura, dozens of times stronger than the War God Puppet they had faced earlier.
"God Clan!"
Zane caught sight of the person in the mirror and sucked in a breath, instinctively wanting to transform into shadow and flee.
"Hmph!"
Xius snorted coldly and lightly waved his hand. Instantly, all the runes in the circular hall surged rapidly, blooming with golden light.
Holy light spread swiftly throughout the hall.
Within a single breath, the entire space of the hall was completely sealed under a layer of golden defense.
Zane immediately felt his shadow abilities weaken by more than half, his face turning dark. He thought, "Damn it! The God Clan still had a hidden move! I was trying to sneak something, and now we’ve walked into a trap!"
"Foolish invaders,"
Xius said coldly, speaking through the mirror projection from aboard his ship as he watched Fang Heng and Zane, his voice full of disdain. "You dare touch the Spirit Mother Sphere? You are courting death."
The Spirit Mother Sphere?
Fang Heng’s heart stirred, and he turned his gaze back toward the silver levitating orb in the center.
"Tell me how you found the Spirit Mother Sphere, and I might grant you a swift end."
Zane shrank back at the words, thinking, "Wow, he’s starting to hold us accountable already?"
As for discovering the anomaly here, it was simple.
The Evil God’s shadow form swept the entire planet, leaving no strange place undetected. In just over ten minutes, he had also collected some items imbued with the Evil God’s aura, greatly supplementing his power.
Zane grew uneasy, staying close to Fang Heng and whispered, "Fang Heng, what do we do?"
"It’s just a projection. Ignore it,"
Fang Heng replied softly, glancing at Xius’ projection high above, and asked in return, "And what exactly is the Spirit Mother Sphere?"
"Hmph! Playing dumb!"
Xius snorted again, his eyes full of contempt as he looked at the two.
If they hadn’t come in pursuit of the Spirit Mother Sphere, why would they have traveled all this way straight here?
Xius was curious—knowledge of the Spirit Mother Sphere was known only to the God Clan and the spawns.
Had the spawns accidentally leaked the information?
Was it intentional or not?
Xius’ gaze shifted coldly toward the spawns’ consul.
The consul immediately broke into a cold sweat and bowed his head sincerely. "Lord Xius, the spawns swear on their lives that this matter is known only to the 32 highest-level consuls of the spawns. There is absolutely no way we could have leaked it."
"Good,"
Xius said coldly, continuing to stare at Fang Heng and Zane through the mirror, "Not telling me? Fine. When I find you, you’ll beg me."
Zane could no longer waste time arguing with Xius. He transformed into shadow form and tried to break through the outer layer of the hall’s dark golden barrier, but as soon as he touched the periphery, a severe holy burn hissed across his body.
D*mn!
Zane felt as if he had returned to the time when he had been trapped in the sealed bottle, surrounded by these troublesome golden light screens with no way out.
History repeating itself?
Whoosh!
Zane’s anxiety surged. He transformed back into shadow form and returned to Fang Heng’s side. "Fang Heng, they’re coming back. Come up with a way to escape, or we’ll be trapped!"
"No rush,"
Fang Heng said, glancing at Xius’ projection high above with disdain.
It was only the God Clan.
What was there to fear?
And it was just a projection.
"After coming all this way, might as well take something before leaving, right?"
"Ah?"
Fang Heng shifted his gaze to the Spirit Mother Sphere in the center of the hall.
With a flick of his wrist, a dark golden protective net appeared in his hand, which he threw toward the silver orb.
"Whoosh!!!"
The dark golden net seemed perfectly suited to the Spirit Mother Sphere, instantly enveloping it.
The protective layer greatly reduced the mental fluctuations radiating from the Spirit Mother Sphere.
Huh?!
Zane froze and then looked back, eyes wide with astonishment.
What was that?
It could block the Spirit Mother Sphere’s mental fluctuations?
Mr. Fang had everything, it seemed.
Almost simultaneously, a voice rang out from the ceiling.
"Impossible! How do you have that!"
Xius’ expression changed abruptly.
He suddenly realized that the situation had gone beyond his control.
The protective net sealing the Spirit Mother Sphere!
D*mn it!
This human!
He had even brought an orb barrier with him, and claimed he wasn’t prepared?
The information about the Spirit Mother Sphere must have been leaked!
By whom?
It definitely wasn’t from inside the God Realm.
Then it had to be from the lower realm.
The spawns!
The only possibility was that it had been leaked from the spawns.
Xius turned to the spawns’ consul, killing intent gleaming in his eyes.
The consul immediately broke into a fine cold sweat, kneeling with the other spawns, "Lord Xius, I swear on my life that we have not leaked a single word about the Spirit Mother Sphere."
Xius’ gaze lingered on the consul’s face for a moment, then he remained silent and looked back at the projection of Fang Heng, feeling his first trace of unease.
With the Spirit Mother Sphere’s mental fluctuations significantly weakened, Fang Heng and Zane moved forward again, stopping just over fifty meters from it.
Fang Heng stared at the Spirit Mother Sphere.
Based on his previous experience, using the corresponding academic ability could control the outer dark golden barrier, thereby manipulating the orb.
Judging from this, the orb’s attribute...
Mysticism? Psychic? Or purely attribute-less?
He decided to just try.
Fang Heng switched to psychic form, using his mental strength to remotely manipulate the dark golden protective layer.
It worked!
On the first attempt, the Spirit Mother Sphere reacted immediately.
Under Fang Heng’s mental strength, the dark golden protective layer slowly floated toward him.
Zane’s expression changed as he stepped back, keeping a close eye on the silver orb.
Unbelievable!
Fang Heng had actually done it!
Fang Heng manipulated the Spirit Mother Sphere while retreating.
"Let’s go."
"Stop!" From the ceiling, Xius’ projection glared at Fang Heng, threatening, "Put down the Spirit Mother Sphere! You will not escape! You will pay for today’s choice!"
"Ha..."
Fang Heng sneered, casually walking toward the bronze door exit.
When he reached the barrier shrouded in the dark golden light screen, he stopped, looked up, and coldly cast a provocative glance at the projection above.
"This it? Pathetic!"
