Chapter 297 The Origin of the Enemy

Passing through the mist of illusion, the road ahead became wider and wider. But the air was still heavy as if it was frozen, and the weak light barely penetrated the cracks in the cave ceiling, casting mottled light and shadows.

From time to time, gusts of cold wind blew in from all directions, blowing the water droplets and vines on the walls, making a slight rustling sound.

What's even more strange is that as we move forward, ghostly shadows seem to flash in the cave from time to time.

It flickers and looks like a white transparent spirit, but its outline is not clear. It seems like it is made of mist and emits a faint cold light.

However, most of them just floated by, standing quietly, watching You Xuan passing through this narrow passage, with no intention of stopping him.

Occasionally, a few of them would suddenly rush forward and rush in front of him. But You Xuan continued to move forward calmly, without dodging or reacting. When those spirits came in front of him, they would often brake suddenly and stop, staring at him for a moment, and then retreat to the side.

As he passed through this passage, the souls behind him often vanished into thin air and soon disappeared without a trace.

You Xuan was a little curious. He didn't know if it was only him who had no obstacles when he entered, or if it was the same for others.

Or did these ghosts see some qualities in me and recognize them, and decide to let me pass?

It can't be that it's because of his subtle underworld temperament that the ghosts who also exist in the underworld judged him as one of their own.
But anyway, he got through with almost no resistance.

As we went deeper, the ghosts disappeared without a trace. Darkness and silence intertwined in the deepest part of the cave, as if it was the end of time.

And in the deepest part of this darkness, there was suddenly light.

Like the spotlights of a stage, gathered at the core of this entire sealed land, there stood an ancient altar quietly.

The altar, built of huge stones, was surrounded by complex totems and symbols, exuding a mysterious and ancient charm. In the middle of the altar was the golden inverted triangle pendant, which looked like it was made of pure gold, shining brightly under the concentrated light. The emblem of the Eye of Horus was like a living eye, as if the pendant was coldly looking at the visitors from the outside world.

Wow, it really is a thousand-year-old building block?
You Xuan walked closer and took a closer look, and found that although it looked very similar, it didn't seem to be it.

First of all, he was now an entry-level dark duelist, and he was still sensitive to powerful dark items. However, this item that looked like a thousand-year-old building block could not give him the divine power of a thousand-year-old artifact that could destroy the world.

Second, it's too small.

Although the appearance looks similar, it is smaller than the authentic Millennium Building Blocks, and looks like a mini replica with very fine workmanship.

You Xuan walked up to the altar and reached out to gently touch the Eye of Horus on the small building block.

At that moment, a brilliant golden light burst out from that eye.

The light that almost swallowed him up bloomed endlessly. Then came images after images, as if pulling his consciousness into them, like watching a movie in person.

He saw the end of the world.

The sky was covered by a thick haze, the sun was swallowed by thick clouds, and the weak gray light struggled between the clouds. The wind whistled through the ruins, rolling up clouds of dust. Lightning pierced the sky, lava rose into the sky, and the tsunami roared towards the land. The whole world was crumbling.

With the shrill flash of lightning, the sky was torn apart. A huge shadow emerged from the clouds and gradually became clearer.

It was a huge snake god.

Its body was as winding as a mountain range, its scales gleamed with a cold metallic luster, and its eyes shone with a strange red glow. It slowly descended from the sky, its body twisting and circling, bringing waves of vibrations, and every twist made the earth tremble.

This is the future?

Does it mean that the coming of Olihagang's snake god will bring about the end of the world?

But then You Xuan quickly realized that it was not the future, but the past.

This had happened before. Because he soon saw that in the direction where the snake god was roaring, a temple appeared. At the end of the temple stood the king's chair. A king with a blurred face and a majestic appearance that people dared not look directly at sat on the throne and slowly raised his arms in this direction.

He spread out his five fingers and made a gesture.

It's like saying, sit down.

In an instant, the pendant on the king's chest burst into endless golden light. The snake god roared unwillingly, but his body soon seemed to twist along with the space, like a rag being thrown into a washing machine.

After a long series of unwilling shouts, the snake god that covered the sky and the sun shrank to be as small as a tadpole, until it turned into a black dot and disappeared into a cup-like container.

The sky returned to its bright blue, the earth stopped roaring, the ocean returned to its calm state, and everything returned to normal.

You Xuan seemed to begin to understand.

Eight years ago, the god Olihagang was sealed in the Pharaoh's "heart container". But Atum already knew his true identity by then, and also knew that the god Olihagang would definitely come back.

Even if the old god of Orichalcum cannot break the seal, as long as the darkness in people's hearts remains, it can always breed new forms and new forms. And if there is another person with power and evil intentions like Dazhi in the past to guide and use it, this process may be accelerated indefinitely.

By then, Atum, as a deceased person, must have returned to the underworld and might not be able to stop it.

So he left a backup plan.

The key to the "Heart Container" he used to seal the evil god is an extension of the power of the Millennium Brick, similar to a "Millennium Brick derivative".

He believed that even though he was gone, there would still be reliable duelists in the future. With the help of this "building block derivative", people in the future would be able to borrow the power of the thousand-year-old building blocks to a certain extent and gain power that could rival the snake god.

At the end of the video, the doomsday scene, the snake god, and all the images disappeared. In the darkness, the remaining golden light burned like a flame, and a person's shadow appeared dimly in the flame.

You Xuan could only vaguely tell from his memory that it looked like the Pharaoh Atum who is no longer with us.

He seemed to smile in his direction and nodded.

But soon the figure disappeared along with the flickering flames.

You Xuan: “.”

The Pharaoh in the video had an attitude of "I'll leave everything to you, junior, and I'll leave it to you with peace of mind", and the pose when he turned around was quite handsome, but in You Xuan's heart, he just wanted to say, don't be like that.

Honestly speaking, even if you give me a magic weapon, I don't know if I can defeat this snake god. It's more reliable for you to come in person.
Just as he was thinking of this, he suddenly felt a violent tremor under his feet, and the entire valley seemed to be collapsing.

He could feel an invisible pressure that made him breathless, as if an invisible divine power had descended upon this entire dimension.

Something is coming.

The Silent Magician and the Chaos Warrior both floated out, their expressions as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

"What's going on?" You Xuan asked in a deep voice.

"It may be that the 'Sealing Device' has been activated and sensed." The Chaos Warrior said in a deep voice, "'It' has personally descended into this dimension and is on its way."

"'It'?" You Xuan frowned.

The Chaos Warrior nodded, his expression solemn.

".The root of the enemy."
