When he woke up, Bai Zihe had already returned to the Lava Mountain Range.
"This is..."
Seeing the scene before him, a thought quickly flashed through Bai Zihe's mind.
He must have been the one the Tower Spirit mentioned, whose divine sense was overused, preventing him from staying in the Haotian Tower any longer.
However, it had to be said.
Although Bai Zihe only stayed in the Haotian Tower for less than half an hour, his progress was undoubtedly very significant.
It also gave him a method for future cultivation—
Even without cultivation manuals, he could use the opponents within the tower to understand the Dao!
Actual combat was the best teacher!
"Right, where is the Haotian Tower?"
Bai Zihe suddenly remembered this question.
He looked around but couldn't find any trace of it.
"Uh..."
Just as Bai Zihe was wondering, a small floating tower appeared in his mind, which was the miniaturized Haotian Tower.
So it was here.
This undoubtedly put Bai Zihe at ease.
Although he didn't understand how the Haotian Tower got into his mind, at least there was no possibility of it being taken by others.
"Swish..."
"Swish..."
Just then, a few sounds of wind could be heard.
Bai Zihe quickly looked in the direction of the sound.
Upon seeing this...
He was instantly furious!
At some point, Zhuge Sheng, Elder Liu, and others had already emerged from the secret realm.
However, their situation was very dire.
They were being targeted by the black-skinned men from before.
It turned out that.
After escaping, those black-skinned men were not convinced and wanted to deal with Bai Zihe again, so they returned.
However, at that time, Bai Zihe had already entered the Haotian Tower.
And just then, Zhuge Sheng and the others emerged from the secret realm.
Therefore, a battle was imminent.
"Brother Bai!"
"Young Master!"
"Lord Bai!"
As soon as Bai Zihe appeared, Zhuge Sheng and the others saw him.
Instantly, everyone was overjoyed and greeted him excitedly.
The black-skinned men's eyes flickered with strange light when they saw Bai Zihe.
Bai Zihe!
Mokas' scroll and divine artifact were in Bai Zihe's hands.
Instantly, their gazes became extremely eager.
"Swish!"
"Swish swish!"
Smoyer and another black-skinned man beside him attacked simultaneously, under the cover of two subordinates, launching dark curses at Bai Zihe.
"Hum..."
Bai Zihe immediately felt a strange fluctuation in the void.
In the past...
He relied on his true essence to block.
But now, after emerging from the Tongtian Tower, Bai Zihe's divine sense had become more acute, able to detect every subtle anomaly.
"Seeking death!"
Bai Zihe snorted coldly, his eyes narrowing.
"Swish!"
"Swish swish!"
The next moment, their curses arrived as expected.
However...
As they landed, the two black-skinned men's expressions changed drastically!
Their curses had not affected a physical entity, meaning that the Bai Zihe before them was merely an illusion!
Not good!
Run, run quickly!
The two retreated backward in unison.
Smoyer even took out his divine artifact immediately, preparing to break through the void and escape.
"Swish!"
However, the next moment, Bai Zihe appeared behind the two.
"Swish!"
He directly and decisively grabbed both of their necks.
"Crack!"
With a crisp sound, a trace of terror flashed in the eyes of Smoyer and this black-skinned master, and then they slumped to the ground.
They died on the spot!
"Clang..."
"Crash..."
The backpack on Smoyer's back hit the ground with a dull thud.
Bai Zihe immediately picked it up.
Upon opening it.
There were also two mysterious scrolls.
And a square, ancient-looking seal.
This seal...
It was also extremely profound, precisely the Kongtong Seal, one of the Ten Great Divine Artifacts.
Bai Zihe collected them all without hesitation.
"Whoosh..."
"Hiss—"
At this moment, the remaining black-skinned men all charged at Bai Zihe, wanting to avenge their leader.
"Seeking your own doom."
Bai Zihe snorted coldly and struck out with a palm.
"Rumble..."
This palm strike was boundless and powerful, with infinite might.
Those black-skinned men crashed into it and were sent flying out on the spot. When they fell to the ground, they had no breath left.
Clearly, they could not have been more dead.
"Young Master!"
"Brother Bai!"
"Lord Bai!"
After eliminating all the black-skinned men, only Bai Zihe's people remained.
"How is it, did you get those treasures?"
Bai Zihe looked at everyone.
Zhuge Sheng, Elder Liu, and the others handed over what they had obtained to Bai Zihe.
Satan, Irina, and Montado hesitated for a moment.
However, they eventually took them out.
Coincidentally.
Irina obtained a scroll.
The Pangu Axe was eventually obtained by Montado.
"You..."
Bai Zihe collected the treasures one by one and then said solemnly, "I, Bai Zihe, will remember this favor."
"These divine artifacts and scrolls..."
"Are extremely important to me. Now that you have given them to me, I naturally will not let you suffer losses. Tell me, what do you want?"
A strange light flashed in Montado's eyes, and he said, "I hope..."
"Bai Zihe, you will never become an enemy of the Xiong Kingdom."
As an old marshal of the Xiong Kingdom, Montado understood the Xiong Kingdom better than anyone present.
And this trip to Dragon Island had shown him Bai Zihe's true strength.
Now...
He could see less and less of Bai Zihe.
Montado estimated.
Even if those legendary figures of the Xiong Kingdom emerged, they might not necessarily be Bai Zihe's match.
The Pangu Axe was very important.
But it was useless to him.
The Pangu Axe was a divine artifact from before the ancient times and would recognize its master.
Without the bloodline of Daxia, even if one obtained the Pangu Axe, they could not ultimately recognize it as their master and could only use it as an ordinary weapon.
However.
The Pangu Axe had a fatal attraction to the people of Daxia.
Therefore, he saw no reason to take this treasure back to the Xiong Kingdom and provoke a strong enemy of Daxia.
It was better...
To give it directly to Bai Zihe, so that for the sake of this divine artifact, he would completely make peace with the Xiong Kingdom from now on and face common enemies.
For example, the Lighthouse Nation.
For example, the great changes that were about to come.
"I will not take the initiative to be enemies with others."
Bai Zihe thought for a moment and promised, "Marshal Montado, as long as you restrain the people of the Xiong Kingdom from doing anything that harms Daxia's interests, this is not a problem."
"Good."
Montado nodded slightly, "Bai Zihe, your word is enough!"
Irina didn't say much.
That scroll...
She couldn't decipher it at all. Moreover, if it weren't for Bai Zihe, she would have lost her life long ago, so she also handed the scroll to Bai Zihe.
"What do you need?"
Bai Zihe still asked.
"I need..."
Irina gazed at Bai Zihe and slowly said, "You to promise me three things!"
Three things?
Bai Zihe was slightly stunned and asked, "What things?"
Irina smiled slightly, "I haven't thought of it yet, I'll tell you when I do."
This...
Bai Zihe was speechless.
As of now.
One divine artifact and two scrolls from the area where Bai Zihe was located had all ended up in his hands.
He had also met the divine beasts.
The exploration of this area was considered complete.
"Hum..."
Just then, a strange sensation washed over him.
It was as if the shackles of this world had been unlocked.
