Chapter 2164: World Law Beacon

Zu An squatted down and ran his fingers over the carvings of the demonic face. Only after a while did he get back up, saying, “Let’s go.”

Shang Liuyu couldn't help but ask him, “Just how are you going to deal with these people? Can you tell me a bit about it?”

Zu An smiled. “It won’t be as awesome if I give it away too early.”

“Tsk, stingy.” Shang Liuyu gritted her teeth.

This guy really is a bit annoying. I really want to bite him.

But she quickly remembered how her big sister had bitten him and her face became entirely red.

You have successfully trolled Shang Liuyu for +77 +77 +77…

Zu An looked at her in confusion. Why was she suddenly getting angry? With her personality, she wasn't supposed to be so petty, right?

Just then, they heard cries of alarm. When the two of them walked forward, they saw that the inside was like a divine palace. There were sinister stone statues lining the path that were all several meters tall. They resembled both dragons and lizards, but were neither. Their expressions were extremely lifelike. All of the stone statues were staring at the uninvited guests, creating a rather strange atmosphere. It was no wonder that the monsters had cried out in fear.

Facing the stares of the stone statues, Shang Liuyu shivered as well. She secretly inched toward Zu An and asked, “They aren’t living things, are they?”

“I don’t think so. After countless years, even if they were alive before, they're already dead through and through by now,” Zu An said. Even though he was reassuring her, however, he also felt a bit strange inside.

They look a bit too lifelike, right? They seem almost as if… almost as if they were petrified by Yu Yanluo’s Medusa Eyes.

Just then, the Bloodthirst Crocodile and the other monsters also berated their subordinates for getting scared over nothing. They were clearly the ones who were supposed to scare others, so how could they be the ones getting scared instead?

The group continued inside. They discovered that the path was extremely long. They were starting to see some changes to the statues along the way too. At first, it was still the creatures that were neither dragons nor lizards, but the subsequent ones became stranger and stranger. All of them were filled with killing intent.

But what was even stranger was that there was a faint scent in the air. The smell was incredibly relaxing, and it made one's body feel as if it was cheering.

Zu An frowned slightly. This place was too strange, and it was giving off such a mysterious sweet scent. It seemed like a trap. But when he carefully examined it, that smell didn’t seem to be poisonous.

Just then, Shang Liuyu said hesitantly, “These statues…”

“Did you remember something?” Zu An asked, surprised. She was the only one from the Ocean races here, so she could know something that no one else here knew.

“These monsters are a bit like a certain the law enforcement group mentioned in history. It was rumored that every single one of their bodies was extremely suited to battle. The Ocean races used them to charge and break through enemy lines, as well as tasking them with arresting criminals,” Shang Liuyu said secretly with a sigh. “But I thought they were just legends. I didn’t expect to really see their statues here.”

Zu An shivered.

Law enforcement group, huh…

When he looked at their dangerous and unkind expressions, he couldn't shake off the feeling that this place wasn’t safe at all.

Just then, he suddenly noticed something. He looked up and directly ahead.

The Bloodthirst Crocodile and the other monsters cried out in alarm. Even the most cool-headed of the group, the Shadowhorror Devil, had a trembling voice as he exclaimed, “We’ve found it!”

There was a tall altar straight ahead of them. The altar emanated brilliant colors, as if a rainbow was being worshiped there. It was no wonder the surroundings weren’t as dark as they had imagined. It turned out to be because of the light coming out of this place. It was actually able to cast its light even so far away.

“A rainbow?” Zu An exclaimed, stunned.

Just what is this thing?

Just then, Mi Li’s voice suddenly spoke up in his head. “That’s a World Law Beacon!” She sounded a bit agitated too. This thing was clearly extraordinary.

“What is a World Law Beacon?” Zu An asked, stunned. He looked at the rainbow again.

This thing actually roused big sis empress awake.

“The World Law Beacon is where a world’s laws manifest concretely. To a certain degree, you can understand it as the highest authority of this world,” Mi Li quickly explained. “If anyone manages to gain ownership of such a beacon, then even by the standards of the worlds beyond, they become the owner of that world. They can also activate or shut down the world’s barrier at will.”

Zu An was shocked. No wonder the monsters had been scheming so deeply for this item! After all, they had already attacked this world once before in ancient times. Their attacks had failed twice, both times because of the world’s barrier. That was the reason why the aliens who were especially powerful weren’t able to cross over into this world. Even if they managed to barely enter through some secret methods, they still had their cultivations suppressed by the world barrier to a certain degree. That was the only reason why Zu An even had a chance against them.

If this World Law Beacon fell into the monsters’ hands, they could invade this world however they wished. How could anyone possibly fight back?

Mi Li asked, “Weren’t you always frustrated as to why your strength couldn't increase at all, as if it was being suppressed by something? As long as you can obtain this World Law Beacon and merge it with the World Law Beacons of other worlds, you can merge the worlds together and strengthen this world’s source. Then, not only you, but all of the cultivators of this world, will be able to rise up together.”

Zu An was really shaken up by those words. After all, in all these years, countless stunning cultivators had been unable to advance even the slightest bit after reaching the earth immortal rank! The reason behind that was the inhibition of the source of this world. If the world source were strengthened, those like Zhao Han and the late Fiend Emperor could have easily risen to a higher cultivation rank. They had been searching for a method of gaining immortality, but the real issue that needed to be solved was right here!

“How strange… A normal World Law Beacon shouldn’t be this dazzling and colorful. Only a more powerful world would have so much color, and yet this world is clearly not that powerful…” Mi Li said to herself in puzzlement.

Just then, Zu An suddenly widened his eyes. Even his breathing became a bit rushed. He didn’t have the time to listen to Mi Li’s words at all. Right next to the altar, he saw a stalk of medicine flickering with golden light. The herb was shaped like an exquisite little dragon, and its leaves looked like a dragon’s claw. It stood there, swaying back and forth. By the dragon head was a fully grown fruit. The sweet scent came from none other than that herb.

Everyone else’s attention was drawn to the dazzling rainbow of the World Law Beacon, and the altar was right in front of them. That was why they hadn’t noticed the medicine growing in the corner. Surrounding it was an exuberant draconic energy that was visible with the naked eye. Even though Zu An had never seen it before, he immediately recognized what it was.

Divine Dragon Immortal Medicine!

The Divine Dragon Immortal Medicine really did exist! Honglei coud be saved!
