Monster Master: Evidence of the Way

Chapter 217: Tomb of the Fierce Battle

"Thanks……"

Suzaku's cheeks actually blushed with embarrassment, and her two little hands were twisted back and forth nervously behind her back.

"This is all thanks to you, Iin. Without your mysterious deluxe menu, I wouldn't have been able to achieve this."

"one way or another,"

Iin considered his words, "Congratulations, Suzaku-senpai—can you tell me now?"

"I do not know."

Suzaku admitted, "To be honest, I've been stuck in the kitchen lately researching ingredients and have had no time to care about others."

"you……!"

Yiyin was just like a raw egg. Couldn't people have a little trust in each other? Why did Suzaku express her dissatisfaction in such a roundabout way?

At this moment, Yi Yin suddenly felt a hand on his shoulder. He instinctively elbowed back, but the other party was one step faster and actually dodged it.

Only when he saw that person did Yi Yin feel a little relieved.

"Baihu-senpai?"

"it's me."

Baihu narrowed his eyes and said, "Anyway, you helped Suzaku solve a big problem, which is also a benefit to our Four Gods Base. So I decided to help you this time."

"...Of course, this is also Xuanwu's intention. She predicted that you would come to see her, so she asked me to wait for you here."

Hearing this, Yiyin suddenly became energetic.

"So, Baihu-senpai, do you know where Xuanwu-senpai is now?"

Bai Hu smiled slightly, "Of course, I know everything. She is now..."

.

Tomb of Time.

As the place where the Wheel of Time was once stored, the Tomb of Time has become a ruin with the destruction of the Wheel of Time.

Xia Lian also broke free from the fate that had been entangled with her and completely drew a line between herself and the Tomb of Time.

However, these Xuanwus don't care much. There are people suffering from disasters in this world all the time. They are not saints, and they have neither the ability nor the mind to meddle in other people's affairs.

But one thing is for sure, if this matter involves herself and the things she cherishes, then she can't just sit back and watch.

The reason is very simple. For Xuanwu to exist in this world, this world must first exist.

It may sound a bit weird to say this, but Xuanwu just vaguely felt that the moment when the day turned into night in Shadow King Village could not be a coincidence.

An ability that affects the entire Blue Planet...

After all, Xuanwu felt very unsure about it, and it was precisely because of this uncertainty that she could not allow something that she could not control to continue to exist.

...Xuanwu would rather believe that this was her own illusion, because when she came to the Tomb of Time, she only saw a scene that looked like the end of the world.

Xuanwu had never known that an extremely brutal battle had once taken place in the Tomb of Time. The combatants involved not only monsters sent by the Destructive Origin Summoning Body, but also two genuine Ten Shadow Kings.

Like most other candidates, Xuanwu only knew that the Ten Shadow Kings were powerful monster masters. But just how powerful was he? Perhaps she herself couldn't say for sure.

If Xuanwu had not met Xia Lian once before, he would probably have relaxed his guard involuntarily.

But because a lot of things have happened recently, Xuanwu had to be vigilant.

Although the Tomb of Time was in a mess, Xuanwu still smelled some unusual scent from it.

Just as she was about to explore further, she suddenly discovered a man with a head of alopecia.

The man looked a bit old, but his eyes were so cold, filled with the ruthlessness of not giving up until he achieved his goal. Xuanwu had only seen such a look in his life, in the eyes of Chairman Tianyi.

Xuanwu instinctively realized that something was wrong, and she summoned Longma almost immediately.

No one would come to the Tomb of Time for a tour at this time for no reason. If Xuanwu was like this, then the man would naturally be the same.

Since we are not sure whether the person has malicious intentions or not, the safest way is to strike first.

Xuanwu no longer hesitated. She pointed at the man and was about to use her words to freeze him.

Unexpectedly, the opponent was also a tough one to deal with. He seemed to have noticed that Xuanwu had a very strong control skill, so he raised his palm before Xuanwu could activate his Word Spirit...

.

Albert finally made some progress, thanks to the Alchemy Dragon.

If it would allow him to make further progress, he would be happy to receive not only one beating, but even thousands of beatings! After all, with Yu Ren around, he wouldn't die that easily.

Humph, if you want to achieve extraordinary things, you need to take some extraordinary measures. Albert doesn't care much about the world's eyes. Even the title of "Shadow King" is just a useless reputation in his eyes.

Even when Albert joined Ouroboros, it wasn't out of complete loyalty to the Snake Queen. He had only one goal from the beginning to the end.

After the battle at the Tomb of Time, Albert was beaten by the Sibu Xiang and became somewhat depressed. He just happened to spend all his time on alchemy from another world.

Finally, Albert gained some clues. However, to conduct further research, he had to return to the Tomb of Time.

Although the Wheel of Time was destroyed, many problems remained unsolved. This was not Albert's first time in the Tomb of Time. He had thought it was a wasteland where no one would ever set foot, but who knew that a girl would suddenly appear one day.

Albert wasn't bragging; he had no other special abilities except for his long lifespan. From the moment he laid eyes on Xuanwu, he immediately realized that Xuanwu's monster was a formidable opponent. While he had the Imperial Blade, no matter how severe his injuries were, he could receive swift healing. But if he was controlled, there was nothing he could do. He had no way to resist.

and so……

Albert decided to take the initiative and take Xuanwu away first.

.

In an instant, the four powerful elements of water, fire, earth and air burst out.

Although Xuanwu knows some magic, she is still too immature compared to Albert who plays with elemental power.

Xuanwu's pupils widened a little, and she quickly realized that the person who could create such powerful elements with his bare hands must be the Shadow King - perhaps it was Albert, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Ouroboros, known as the "Red Sage".

Xuanwu knew she was no match for her opponent, but she couldn't let herself be slaughtered. In a split second, she raised the Dragon Horse with one hand and took out a piece of talisman paper with the other.

"..."

Albert soon realized that Xuanwu was not knocked down by him, but used some means to avoid his attack.

Albert suddenly became interested and came up with a fun idea. He had originally wanted to use himself as a guinea pig to test the results of his new alchemy, but now that he had a better test subject, why not?

Albert thought of this and pretended to look around casually, but in fact he was locking onto Xuanwu's position.

Xuanwu's talisman paper was a rare consumable item, and its use was strictly limited. Even if she could use the talisman paper to achieve instant flash, the distance it could reach wouldn't be very far.

Albert showed a confident expression. He stretched out his hand and grasped the fist that Xuanwu was swinging at him.

"What a shame! You've determined that magical attacks can't harm me, so you want to use physical techniques? What a shame! My body has been through countless cuts, cuts, and fires, and it's already as hard as a rock."

After saying that, Albert grabbed her neck and lifted her up easily like a chicken.

"..."

Xuanwu frowned, not uttering a single word. Xuanwu knew that the man in front of him could strangle him to death at any time if he wanted to.

Fortunately, Albert had no intention of killing Xuanwu for the time being. That would be a waste of natural resources.

Albert conjured up something with his bare hands and waved it in front of Xuanwu as if to show off.

"Do you know what this is? Hehehe... After the Wheel of Time was destroyed, the Key of Time naturally perished as well. What I have in my hand now is probably the most similar-looking replica of the Key of Time on Blue Star."

"Of course, its effects can't compare to the real thing. Maybe when I take your memory, it'll leave you with a sense of déjà vu or something... But you're my first test subject after all, so I'll be done with it quickly. I don't want to kill you, but I certainly can't let you ruin my plans."

After saying that, in front of Xuanwu's expressionless face, Albert shook the Key of Time, as if considering how deep the wound should be.
