Chapter 754: Bad News

Lu Benwei felt a headache coming on.

Previously, he had obtained the Bronze Temple by chance during the semi-finals of the Dragon Kingdom’s National Class Tournament.

He remembered that there were tens of thousands of stigmata in the Bronze Temple. Although most of them were one-mark and two-mark, there were also four-mark and five-mark stigmata.

“Little friend Lu, what’s wrong?” the Great Peacock King looked at Lu Benwei, who was frowning, and asked with concern.

Lu Benwei woke up and said, “Nothing. I just thought of my experience in the ancient country.”

The Great Peacock King continued, “My young friend Lu, do you want to hear my speculation about the Bronze Temple?”

“Please share!”

“I wonder if little friend Lu knows about the law stigma?”

Lu Benwei nodded.

Law stigmata were the most mysterious and powerful stigmata. According to legend, all the power in this world came from the law stigmata.

Lu Benwei also had half of a death stigma. It was also because of it that Lu Benwei obtained a great opportunity, and his battle strength increased exponentially.

“My guess is that the Bronze Temple might have come from another world! ” the Great Peacock King suddenly said in a deep voice.

His guess scared Lu Benwei at the same time.

“From the foreign land?!”

“This is what I know from other forbidden ancient books. When the divine land descended, this planet was filled with all kinds of countries and heroes. However, all the countries in the world predicted that a great calamity was about to arrive.”

Lu Benwei nodded slightly. This record coincided with Lu Benwei’s thoughts.

Three thousand years ago, there were countless countries, and the heroes fought for supremacy. At the same time, they predicted that a great disaster was coming and would affect the entire world.

Their survival instincts made the countries seek reform.

For example, the emperor and empress and a portion of their subjects of the Apocalypse Empire had gone somewhere to escape this calamity.

Another example was the descent of the divine land, which was able to resist the cataclysm and thus caused disputes among the various countries.

The divine land was the Southern Desert Continent under Lu Benwei’s feet.

“The reason why the Bronze Temple can trigger the stigma is very likely because it carries all the law stigmata,” the Great Peacock King said.

Lu Benwei’s pupils continued to contract. It was not that he had not thought of this idea before. This was because the death stigma was inside, proving Lu Benwei’s point.

However, bearing all the law stigmata was a little too terrifying and absurd.

Lu Benwei could not imagine it.

“Why do you say that?” Lu Benwei asked.

The Great Peacock King did not say much. Instead, he flipped through the ancient book a few pages. A picture scroll unfolded. On the leftmost side of the scroll was written “Year 1,000 of the Divine Land Epoch”.

“The thousandth year of the divine land era. How many years ago was this?” Lu Benwei asked.

“It’s been almost two thousand years, right?” the Great Peacock King asked.

Lu Benwei said, “2,000 years ago, when the Calamity Year began.”

On the scroll, Lu Benwei saw the map of the Southern Desert Continent. At that time, there was no concept of the five great dynasties.

The Liuli Dynasty and the Mangzhu Dynasty were both small countries.

“At this time, the Southern Desert Continent is also starting to show signs of danger?” Lu Benwei guessed.

Other than the Southern Desert Continent, there were also many gray shadows on the painting, representing the unknown territory.

In the next picture, Lu Benwei’s pupils shrank.

In the northern part of the Southern Desert Continent, eight divine rainbows appeared above the gray shadow. At the same time, a demonic claw appeared in the northwest direction.

Its body was so huge that it could cover the entire Southern Desert Continent with just one hand.

“Eight Ultimate Kings?” Lu Benwei exclaimed.

He even recognized one of them. He had seen the Zhu family’s ancestor in the immortal secret realm of Rodu!

“Does this record the biggest and most tragic war in the history of the Dragon Kingdom?” after Lu Benwei calmed down, he asked.

According to the history books of the Dragon Kingdom, that battle lasted for more than 3,000 days and nights, and almost an entire generation of young adults in the Dragon Kingdom was killed.

A mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. In the end, the eight ultimate kings appeared out of nowhere and ended the battle.

Lu Benwei saw the Yan family ancestor on the scroll. He held the Bronze Temple with both hands, looking majestic and vigorous. His eyes were full of vigor, like a divine weapon from the celestial heavens.

Lu Benwei did not know whether to laugh or cry. “It seems that the Yan family ancestor was like me for a period of time, relying on the Bronze Temple to dominate the world.”

Suddenly, he shuddered.

“Oh no! If it’s said that the Bronze Temple bears the law stigmata, why is it so difficult to fight this battle?” Lu Benwei had another question.

“What if the Bronze Temple was empty?” the Great Peacock King asked in a light tone.

In general, the ancient book of the Great Peacock King helped him solve many doubts. However, there were still some problems that Lu Benwei could not understand.

“Has the catastrophe that will affect the entire world arrived?”

There was a difference of a thousand years between the apocalypse year and the disaster year. The rumored catastrophe should have arrived.

Now, humans were still alive and well, but they were constantly fighting with the monsters.

“Xiong Hu, you brat, don’t run!” the old chief of the Steel King Strange Strength Bear Clan turned over and said in his sleep.

Lu Benwei’s thoughts were interrupted.

After estimating the time, Lu Benwei placed the ancient book on the table and said, “Thank you, Great Peacock Prince.”

“It’s just a small matter. It’s getting late, so I’ll go back to my room to rest.”

Lu Benwei nodded and watched the Great Peacock King leave. Then, he slowly exhaled a mouthful of turbid air, feeling that the air was a little stuffy.

“Let’s go out for a walk.”

This inn was the most luxurious in Jiao City.

There was a small courtyard in the middle, connected to a small corridor. At the end of the corridor was a small stone pavilion.

There were some koi in the pond. After Lu Benwei sat down in the stone pavilion, watching the koi swim to the depths of the pond.

The moon was reflected on the surface of the water.

“It’s so late. Why aren’t you sleeping?” Lu Benwei asked slowly.

Ji Han was also there, leaning on the railing and watching the koi swimming in the pond.

The moonlight shone on Ji Han’s body, forming a layer of mist.

“The Ji Clan is gone,” Ji Han said lightly,

Lu Benwei’s heart trembled.

More than half a year had passed, and the war between the Ji Clan and the Jiang Clan had long come to an end. With the clan spirit killed, the Ji Clan was unable to retaliate at all.

Lu Benwei slowly exhaled and asked, “Do you hate me?”

He knew that if he protected the Ji Clan, the situation would be very different.

Unfortunately, Lu Benwei only had important matters to attend to at that time and urgently needed to find the Six-tailed Crocodile and the Imperial Baby.

They left the Ji Clan’s stronghold.
