Chapter 789: Chapter 778 What do you think I am? Chapter 789: Chapter 778 What do you think I am? Boom!

As the night cloaked the earth and the starlight filled the sky, a massive pillar of light nearly a kilometer in diameter suddenly erupted from a shimmering lake, forming a grand column that reached towards the heavens.

But this light pillar was just the beginning. In the mountains, on the hills, underground, and in the rarely visited wilderness… one by one, enormous pillars of light burst forth. As the pillars rose to a certain height, they gradually dimmed, transforming into streaks of light permeating the sky. These wisps of light quickly connected to each other.

From a high enough position, one could see these pillars of light spilling and interconnecting, forming massive array patterns scattered across the vast Shadow Wasteland.

…

Similarly, in a big city shrouded by darkness, the Shadow Wasteland’s human city lord who was creating an offspring with a concubine, suddenly looked out of the window. He saw a massive column of light erupting from the highest mountain in his territory, piercing straight into the sky and illuminating this part of the land.

“That’s Thousand Stone Mountain!” The upper-half of his body covered in dense drawings of various evil beast totems, he stood up, his face suddenly darkened as he looked out of the window. He instantly connected the incident at Thousand Stone Mountain to the major earth movement three months ago.

“Someone! Go execute the guy who was in charge of the last inspection of Thousand Stone Mountain. What a piece of shit excuse about rainwater.”

After the Shadow Wasteland city lord indifferently issued his command, he grabbed a bear skin from the side and draped it over himself. Then, he strode out of his mansion, turning into a streak of light and shadow, rushing outside the city towards Thousand Stone Mountain.

He hadn’t anticipated the onset of this anomaly, which was already a dereliction of his duty as a city lord. If he didn’t suppress this anomaly quickly, he would lose his position as the city lord. The royal city would have an excuse to remove him.

“What the hell is this?” Soon, this city lord, relying on his brute strength, forcefully excavated a passageway that led into the abdomen of Thousand Stone Mountain. Then, he saw the frenzied Magic Array that was manipulating the power of the earth and elements around it.

“City lord, if I’m not mistaken, the style of this pictograph seems to be something that’s been left behind from the glorious era of the Titan Rule. This seems to be referred to as Magic Array. There’s something similar in the royal city.”

“Are you sure?” The city lord twisted his head to fiercely stare at the staff behind him. This was his guiding target, specially assigned by the royal court after he assumed the position as a city lord. Of course, what his actual intention was, he understood quite clearly.

“Certain.” The young man who held a level of refined air that the Shadow Wasteland people could never possess, nodded his head.

“Who would set up such a Formation?”

“Aside from the Titans from the legends, no one can. The Magic Arrays in the Royal City were all left behind over ten thousand years ago.”

“But did you look carefully? This stone wall has just been excavated.” The city lord touches the stone wall, then looks towards the operating Magic Array. “Although I don’t understand this so-called Magic Array, it’s obvious it was set up not long ago. These imprints are all new. What do you think this implies?”

The city lord turned to look at his staff, his face a stoic mask devoid of any emotion. But within him, murderous intent was almost boiling.

“The first Titan’s descent was said to be thirty thousand years ago. He put an end to the chaos in our world, brought about unity, and led our Shadow Wasteland World into a golden era. That Titan gave us the strength to fight and survive against the evil beasts.

But that Titan ruled our world for only eight hundred years before leaving. Then our world fell back into chaos again. But as the system laid by the Titan was in place, it quickly unified.

However, as the ruler was not a Titan, the peace only lasted five hundred years, and the world fell back into chaos. Thus, our world experienced an era of disunity and unity for twenty thousand years.

Twelve thousand years ago, the second Titan descended. He put an end to the chaos and ruled our world for nine hundred years. Then, he left with the strongest group of Shadow Wasteland People. Now, more than ten thousand years have passed. Do you think it’s time for the third Titan to descend?”

“Why would you have such a thought?” The city lord looked strangely at his staff, as if seeing him for the first time. “You should know if a Titan really appears, the Nine Phoenix Dynasty can basically be declared destroyed.”

“I was obsessively engrossed in all the documents related to the Titans in my youth. I once read a very interesting book where the author stated that when a Titan first descends, it is their weakest time.

“And when they unified our world, their strength reached its peak. At that time, they possessed an invincible power that could sweep across all the desolate lands.”

“Do you think a Titan has descended?”

“I have some confidence, but I’m not sure.” the elegant staff member opened his mouth, “Lord of the City, how do you think we should deal with this magic array?”

“A magic array potentially set up by a Titan, how do you think I should deal with it?” The city lord looked at his staff member with a smile. The guy, assigned by the Nine Phoenix Dynasty to monitor him, seemed to be a rebel.

“Of course, it should be destroyed!” The staff member’s lips moved but he didn’t say it out. Standing from the perspective of the Nine Phoenix Dynasty, he should be urging the city lord to destroy the array, but if doing so required risking his own life, he wouldn’t think about it.

“Sir, I heard that the magic array laid by the Titans possesses a powerful counterattack capability.” Evading the question, the staff member made the city lord slightly surprised. Then, under his gaze, the seemingly weak staff member approached the magic array.

Then he reached out to touch the light pillar released by the magic array. Seeing this, the city lord squinted his eyes slightly without saying a word or halting his movement.

“Puff!” The moment his hand touched the light pillar, the staff member was violently thrown back, sounds of bones cracking and breaking were heard throughout his body, embedding him into the stone wall, accompanied by the dense cracking sound from his skeleton.

“Such a smart guy.” Watching the staff member’s action, the city lord wearing a bear skin cloak was slightly stunned. Then, without taking any precautions, he touched the light pillar emitted by the array, and as a result, was thrown back and embedded into the stone wall, motionless.

…As Golden Dragon Mother began to trigger this fully set up powerful magic array, the signs of the array’s activation caught the attention of the local powers. They each sent out people to investigate the nodes of the array.

Some Shadow people, combining their own knowledge, recognized the origin of these arrays, found links to the Titans of legend, and then they dared not act rashly, did nothing to the array, just watched.

They acted as if they were blind and deaf, treating the array as non-existent. Some, learning from a particular city’s lord, pretended they wanted to destroy the array, but were repelled due to insufficient strength.

Of course, there were some Shadow people who knew about the Titans, but directly saw them as foreign objects and wanted to destroy them. But regretfully, the Golden Dragon Mother had already taken this into account; every array node was connected to the local landscape. Without the power to destroy a land within a radius of a thousand miles in one strike, they couldn’t even damage the array. They had to watch the array operate until it was fully activated.

“The Iron Curtain that stretches across Shadow Wasteland World has descended. Now, even if those legendary peaks of Shadow people in the royal city noticed it, it would be too late to destroy it before it takes shape.”

Golden Dragon Mother stood in the high altitude of ten thousand meters, overlooking the vast land. Muria also stood next to her, looking thoughtful.

She could see that above the ground, a U-shaped light line was rapidly spreading, constantly creeping into the sky, forming an impenetrable wall of light.

Behind this wall was the territory Golden Dragon Mother had designated for Muria. There were also legendary level Shadow people here, but their quantity was small, and their strength wasn’t strong, all within the range Muria could handle.

“Almost there, the wall has taken shape, little Muria, you can order your legion to start the conquest.” When the light wall below spread to the sky, reaching Golden Dragon Mother, she looked towards Muria.

“Who are you?” Suddenly, a harsh beast roar came from below. Muria looked down and immediately saw a rugged Shadow giant stepping on the void rushing towards him. Thirteen substantive evil beasts encircled him, staring fiercely at Muria, with an extremely ferocious breath, “Did you cause these disturbances? What do you want to do?”

“Alas, little Muria, we’ve been discovered.” Noticing the arrival of this legendary power Shadow man, Golden Dragon Mother completely ignored him, and her gaze fell onto Muria, “You tell me, are you the one who will take the stage, or are you the one who will?”

“I’ll go.” Seeing Golden Dragon Mother who had no intention of fighting, Muria pulled a smile, took a step forward, “Shadow people, tell me, what is your name?”

“Bar-Gu!” Bar-Gu, whose body was comparable to the Storm Giant Leader, looked at Muria, his eyes filled with astonishment. He had noticed Muria’s title for him, “You’re not a creature of our world? Where are you from?”

“What do you think?” Endless golden thunder burst out from Muria’s body, completely covering him. His original ten-meter body swelled rapidly in front of this Shadow man, expanding directly to one hundred and thirty meters, “What do you think I am?”

“Titan!” Seeing Muria’s Titan True Form, Bar-Gu took a step back. The ferocious beasts surrounding him suddenly ceased roaring, as if they were fixed in place…
