Legends and myths are untrustworthy!

When they leave the mouth of the story teller’s, they are subject to subjective speculation and omissions.

However, some truthful information is hid within these fallacies!

Walking all this way, Su Lu visited many elderly and scholars, heard many legends and stories, and distilled some subtle things.

“The mainstream belief of this world is the Mother Earth Goddess, there are no traces of the other Six Gods… which is to say, this is the exclusive domain of the Mother Earth Goddess?”

“But… the rumors of beasts and disasters, bear obvious traces of the Evil God… and various forms of ancestor worship by the predecessors…”

“It seems like, as if it’s a world that the Mother Earth Goddess was interested in, her faith about to be unified, yet due to the Twilight of the Gods, her investments had to be interrupted?”

“And… Various broken myths and legends exist within a timeframe from seven hundred to fifteen hundred years, is this the interval between twilight and dawn?”

“Besides that, some of the legendary stories are somewhat similar to the Main World… Such as the hero Morde, he is a lover of the earth, had once slain evil dragons, and defeated apostles of the underworld…”

“Is this coincidence? No… it should be intentionally spread by the church of the Mother Earth Goddess, for her followers to collect faith or legends?”

Listening to Old Bal across him telling stories, currents of emotions risen within Su Lu’s heart.

In reality, the other party’s skills were mediocre, not only forgetful, but also pausing with a thick accent.

“So… what about the Meteor Forest?”

Su Lu knitted his brows and continued asking.

“It’s being said that there once was a meteorite that fell, but it was already a matter from hundreds of years ago… That forest is very dangerous, inhabited by a group of Wind Wolves, although a solitary Wind Wolf may not be a match for the Ice Plain Wolf, they prefer to move in packs, with swift speed… the prey they set their sights on, are done for.”

Old Bal belched, “As for relics? Some people had lost their way, stumbled into the depths of the forest, it’s said they saw a majestic hall and a white dragon soaring in the sky… I think they were hallucinating from eating poisonous mushrooms.”

“Good, I wish to employ you, can you take me the surroundings of Meteor Forest, and indicate the path to go towards the relics.”

Su Lu threw a purse onto the table.

The crisp clinking sounds of metal coins instantly attracted Old Bal’s attention: “Can do, no problem!”

The relics of the Meteor Forest are also well known among Wizards.

But not because they’re vast, instead for their danger!

Those less dangerous relics have long been explored by the Wizards.

Yet, Su Lu wasn’t too interested in relics that could be explored by a group of second or third tier Profession people, as those places were highly unlikely to contain information about the fifth level or higher.

The next day, he followed Old Bal, and entered a forest.

The journey was quiet, without any robbers or bandits.

Those who really dared to make a move had been cleaned out by Su Lu the previous night.

After a day and night of trekking, Old Bal had taken Su Lu in front of a forest.

This forest was strange, filled with plants that looked like fir trees, the edges of the leaves shining with a hint of silver shimmer.

“The flora and fauna of this place are different from other places… It’s said that it’s all because of changes brought about by the meteorite!”

Old Bal pointed at a river, “The survivor that time was able to escape the forest by following the river, if you want to venture deeper, tracing the river upstream might lead you to the relics.”

Upon finishing, he anxiously gazed at Su Lu.

“Great.”

Su Lu threw another purse over.

For him, being able to spare the effort of pathfinding with just a small amount of gold and silver, was a very worthwhile deal.

As for the so-called Wind Wolves, he did not care at all.

Even if they were a Transcendent species, they were only here to deliver experience.

Su Lu’s figure flickered, he leapt onto a tree trunk, then jumped forward, flying tens of metres each time, hastily travelling with the aid of tree branches while Old Bal who saw this scene couldn’t help but rub his eyes, almost thought he saw an illusion: “Either he’s a knight or a wizard, thank god I did not plan to have any ill intentions!”

Old Bal patted his chest in relief, carefully hid the purse on him, and set off on his satisfactory journey back home.

“So this is… a Wind Wolf?”

Su Lu crouched in a shadow, watching the wolf pack not far away.

The forest was full of animals, especially a kind of rabbit half the height of a human, with robust hind legs that could probably kick a person severely injured.

But before the wolves, they were still just food.

The appearing Wind Wolves were about a dozen, they had smooth aquamarine fur, which seemed to shimmer with a hint of glow.

From the looks of it, they were likely descendants of the Transcendent species.

However, compared to the Ice Plain Wolf Overlord, the Wind Wolves didn’t even come close, but they were remarkably united, coming out in groups of at least ten or more, and understood cooperation when hunting.

If their numbers were factored in, indeed they were formidable adversaries.

“But even so, they could not stop the Wizards… unless among them there exist Transcendent species, or even Wisdom species!”

Su Lu traced the river upstream, journeying through several forbidden areas for living things, finally catching sight of his destination.

It was a group of buildings made of white stones, covering a large expanse.

For some reason, the wild grass and vines and the forest stopped their growth right at the edge of the buildings, the boundary was extremely distinct.

And behind those vines, within the dense forest, the robust figures of Wind Wolves were clearly visible, some of them sitting some lying down, appearing like loyal guards.

Notably, one among them was three times bigger than its peers, a circle of dense, scarf-like fur around its neck, and a blue crescent mark on its forehead.

“The pack leader! A third level Transcendent species?”

Feeling a wave of Inspiration, detecting the Breath, Su Lu’s face grimaced.

Transcendent creatures, like humans, are limited by the Twilight of the Gods, making it difficult for them to be born or ascend.

This Wind Wolf King had attained at least the fourth level during the era of Spirits Rebirth, and had a high chance of advancing to Legend level!

Its appearance here, and its guarding of this area, seemed suspicious.

“The ‘guards’ arranged by the White Palace? Or their descendants?”

Murmuring to himself, Su Lu split a Shadow Clone to keep guard, and went straight into a Soul Trance.

In the Mental Realm.

He saw many orbs of light around him, unlike human beings, appearing ferocious and wild, this was the Mental Secret Realm of beasts.

“The mentality of beasts differs from human beings, if I barge in, it would be equivalent to accepting an ‘out of control’ trial… ”

The Mental Secret Realm of humans, subconsciously still perceive themselves as humans.

However, the mentality of beasts does not think in such a manner, entering rashly into it is very dangerous for Occupational People.

“Luckily… I don’t have to do it that way.”

Su Lu eyed the orbs of light around him, took a deep breath, “Spirit oppression!”

Roar, Roar!

The terrifying might, akin to the Dragon Might, descended, constantly oppressing the light orbs around him, creating an effect akin to a ‘Mental Storm’!
