Chapter 259 - 131: Everything Can Be a Straight Man Foil
The Dragon Palace must have been filled with seawater back then; this seawater was drained due to some event, leading to its current completely dried-up state, without a drop of Water Element.
There are too many apparatuses in the Dragon Palace that require the Water Element and water itself to function.
As the seawater disappeared and Water Element ceased to exist, the entire Dragon Palace fell into “death.”
The deeper they walked, the more bodies they saw, and the less decayed they appeared.
Judging from the parasitic entities on the corpses that had also died, Lu Wenwu was completely certain.
This was definitely the work of his old friend—the Great Evolution God.
Everything was eerily similar to situations he had encountered before.
However, after the Great Evolution God’s power merged with the World’s indigenous Extraordinary Power, unknown mutations occurred, turning the Dragon Palace into the ghastly state it was now.
The Dragon Palace was vast, but it had an end.
After confirming that no other rooms contained anything valuable, the unexplored areas of the Dragon Palace were reduced to the final location.
The Sea God Dragon King’s palace in the true sense.
It was his courtroom for receiving worship from the sea creatures, and his living quarters.
Reaching the deepest part of the Dragon Palace, the group saw a massive door at least thirty meters tall.
The entire Dragon Palace was in darkness, yet the Treasure Pearl embedded on this grand door still emitted a faint light.
“A single Deep Sea Spirit Pearl can create a B+ Level powerhouse! How can there be so many here!” Xu Changjiang couldn’t help but marvel in envy, “No wonder the Dragon King used to claim to be a Sea God; this prowess does have a hint of the True Dragon feeling.”
“But they’re almost all ruined! Spirituality has all but vanished! If we came a few days later, it would have been entirely wasted!” Wu Jianqing scowled in displeasure, “Why couldn’t the Old Dragon King leave some for us newcomers?”
Lu Wenwu rubbed his chin, discreetly observing the patterns formed by the inlaid Deep Sea Spirit Pearls on the door, with a thoughtful expression.
This thing looked a bit familiar.
He began searching through his memory.
Sure enough, he found something in the Mao Mountain Skill: Mountain Knowledge that he rarely looked at after acquiring it, a very similar array map.
There were some differences, but many features were connected.
This seemed to be an array combining space and massacre as a comprehensive suppression array, with the hall beyond the door as the central array hub, using the entire Dragon Palace as a Grand Array to imprison and obliterate something.
Others may be clueless, but Lu Wenwu had a hunch.
What else could it be?
It must be the power of the Great Evolution God.
Thus, the affair of the Dragon Palace seemed to have an outline by now.
Perhaps the Dragon King found himself and the shrimp soldiers and crabs generals inside the Dragon Palace affected by the Great Evolution God and then exhausted all efforts to seal the Dragon Palace, crafting an array capable of suppressing itself.
Thousands of years passed, till today, the array was on the verge of failure.
Only then could they have been accidentally transported to this forbidden place.
Seems like the Absurd Sea Dragon King should be inside, right?
After years of imprisonment, suppression, and obliteration, how much of your strength remains?
Lu Wenwu suddenly felt entirely exhilarated!
His blood boiling and rushing with exhilaration, each cell actively urging him to engage in an epic battle!
Having understood what might be inside, Lu Wenwu no longer hesitated.
He unleashed a kick directly at one of the Deep Sea Spirit Pearls.
“Crack!”
Within this deep environment, the sound of cracking was notably distinct.
A conspicuous crack appeared on that Deep Sea Spirit Pearl.
“Violent Dragon, you…”
“Bang!”
“Crack, crack, crack, crack, crack, crack!”
Before Xu Changjiang finished his sentence, the Deep Sea Spirit Pearl had instantly shattered into countless flying crystalline fragments.
A multitude of alarming cracks rapidly spread across the entire door, tens of thousands of Deep Sea Spirit Pearls all trembled like balloons filled with air, exploding one after another!
“This is a suppression array involving space-seal, with the Dragon King inside. Once we slay that dragon, we can exit.” Lu Wenwu succinctly explained.
Slay the Dragon King who proclaimed himself Sea God!?
The three teammates were instantly stunned.
Dude, for such a huge matter, you could at least discuss it with the brothers!
Xu Changjiang opened his mouth to say something.
Yet, he swallowed his words.
What good would discussing it do?
After signing that Abyss Contract, Lu Wenwu wouldn’t screw them over or deceive them.
Moreover, ultimately, the way to exit might only be from here.
Fighting was inevitable.
All opponent information is unknown, so adapt and overcome on the fly.
But this signal to commence the battle…
It somewhat made one’s liver ache.
Lu Wenwu boldly kicked open the Dragon King’s door and swaggered inside.
A black stream filled with the scent of decay rushed toward them, carrying traces of a fishy stench.
The Dragon Palace Hall was at least fifty meters high, yet it was still extremely dark like the outside world, with decorations that should have glittered in gold already severely decayed, cloaked and buried under mud-like black substances.
The hall presented a hemispherical shape with a celestial circle and earthly square, with towering black protrusions like stone sculptures standing around in a circular formation.
