The four of them began their preparations quickly while adjusting their state of mind.
This forest was not completely boundless and limitless. When Garen sat on the Buddha Mother’s body and observed his surroundings, he noticed that this entire space only spanned a radius of five or six kilometers and was actually very small. The sky appeared boundless and endless but was actually covered by a layer of transparent, semi-circular overlay, making it impossible for them to fly through.
Two hours later.
Within the forest, the Buddha Mother knelt on the ground on one knee slowly before AG, Garen and the other two people hid within its mouth. They used their palms to grip tightly against the inner walls of the Buddha Mother’s oral cavity so that they wouldn’t be flung about.
Faint, golden lines gradually spread across the Buddha Mother’s body. There were only a few lines at first, but soon there were ten, more than a dozen, over a hundred before they increased and spread across the Buddha Mother’s entire body.
Tch!!
Suddenly, the Buddha Mother’s gigantic body surged through the sky and rose upwards towards the transparent and almost invisible overlay above.
When it touched the overlay, the space around it became slightly distorted for a while before instantly behaving as if it had not been touched at all. Major changes occurred throughout the scenery suddenly. The night sky disappeared and was replaced by a wide magma hole above them.
The Buddha Mother did not stop at all and continued charging upwards.
Crash!
The hole shook instantly for a while before a gigantic black hole was smashed open.
The entire Buddha Mother charged towards the surface frantically like a drilling machine that was trying to excavate something. During its terrifying spurt, the spaces around it twisted continuously as if a powerful strength was determined to pull it back. However, this strength could not surpass the Buddha Mother’s own tremendous power in the end.
Ahh…!!
The Buddha Mother howled quietly before its large body speeded up suddenly. Its six limbs had begun to rotate slowly while the weapons they held moved faster to form a high-speed rotating drill.
Its entire body began to burn while strange black flames started to light up on its wood-like body. The flames increased and burned brighter. As the flames continued to burn, its body became smaller and smaller.
The surface of the ground seemed extremely far away before the last trace vanished from sight.
The Buddha Mother’s body was growing smaller and smaller.
Kachak!
One of its arms that was holding a battle ax broke off into pieces suddenly before being engulfed by the black flames.
While its arm burned, the Buddha Mother’s speed increased gradually before it resembled a ray of black light that was flying from the ground and piercing upwards quickly.
Kachak!! Another one of its arms broke off into little pieces before it burned with its weapon. This time it was the arm that was holding a long rod.
The Buddha Mother’s speed increased again before it rushed forward like a black rocket. However, the ground level seemed endless and it was clear that Garen and the others had not considered its depth when they came down.
Immediately after that, the arms that were holding the ring and flask respectively broke off and went up in flames at the same time before its speed increased once again. However, they were still unable to see any trace of the surface.
Next, the arm that was holding the silk ribbon and the last arm that held the short dagger broke off into smithereens together and began to burn.
The final stage of burning increased the Buddha Mother’s speed to a terrifying degree.
Inside the oral cavity.
Garen and the other three people sat in a circle with their palms pressed up against the inner walls of the oral cavity tightly.

Begin,
Garen stimulated his thoughts and transferred an idea to the Buddha Mother. Once he’d inherited the Holy Phoenix Scriptures and wiped off the scriptures and passages from the inner walls of the Buddha Mother, he became the only person who could control the existence of this gigantic living creature.
The moment he used his thoughts to transmit his orders, a strong suction began pulling at his palms suddenly.
At this moment, the blood essence and aura from his body gushed outwards quickly through his palms.
The same thing happened to AG, Nasira, and Manasi. Their faces became flushed when the blood essence and witch powers from their bodies were being absorbed.
Boom!!!
There was a loud noise beside their ears before the scene before their eyes was filled with light!
The four of them could neither see nor hear anything momentarily. Their visions were only filled with the endless white light.

Within a yellow sand desert that seemed boundless on first glance.
A continuous stretch of rolling sand dunes stretched towards the edges of the horizon. Layers of dust and sand resembled mist when it was stirred up by the wind. Soft, scratchy noises could be heard when they danced about.
Beside one of the sand dunes, a black flame flashed before the fire disappeared and four silhouettes appeared at the foot of the sand dune suddenly.
One of them had a body full of taut muscles and seemed too muscular to be human. Meanwhile, the other three people comprised of two men and a woman, though all of them looked unusually confused. Their clothes were torn and the elderly male was even covering his mouth tightly, as if he was determinedly suppressing his need to vomit.
Garen held a black wooden ball in his hand. It was only the size of a fist and was the core of the Buddha Mother that had remained after the creature was burned completely. As long as he had this thing, he could easily use materials from the outside world to reconstruct the Buddha Mother again. The body of the previous Buddha Mother was mainly created with wood because it lived in a vast forest.

Where is this place?
Garen kept the Buddha Mother’s core and scanned his surroundings.

We’ve definitely left the area this time,
beside him, Nasira had already taken her phone out and checked it, before noticing that they had phone signals here.

There are phone signals here. Looks like we’ve truly left,
AG nodded.
My phone was smashed completely. Nasira, determine our current location.


Doing that now.
Nasira lowered her head and focused her eyes on her phone.
All of their other equipment had been destroyed during the journey. Although Garen was not injured, he did not have a handphone with him. Therefore, he merely climbed up one of the surrounding sand dunes and stood there before looking into the distance.
The strong winds blew the sand and dust upwards and obscured their vision, making it impossible for them to see their surroundings clearly.
Soon, Nasira was able to contact the headquarters of the Dark Colors’ witches to determine the location of herself and the three other people.
They were in the deepest part of the Ganneling Desert which was also the world’s largest desert.
Even with their strength, the four of them still felt unusually hot here.
The temperatures here reached forty to fifty degrees. Only Garen’s exceptionally strong vitality could ensure that his pores would shrink on their own to prevent the water in his body from evaporating. As for the temperature, although the lack of water loss would cause his body temperature to increase, his 10 point vitality could resist temperatures of hundreds or even a thousand degrees. Therefore, he was not worried about the temperature at all.
The other people found other ways to combat this respectively.
AG’s skin was pale and somewhat discolored but could turn mirror-like whenever light was present. His skin could reflect large amounts of light and heat which created the effect of lowering his body temperature.
Nasira was even stranger as beads of water would form on the surface of her body occasionally. She seemed to possess the ability to absorb and condense water directly from her surroundings. It was obvious that the condensed water droplets on her body were not sweat.
Finally, Manasi was slightly worse-off, but he still had his own methods of beating the heat. Purple patches began forming all over his body before the remaining pieces of armor on his body released cold air quickly and continuously to help him cool down from the broiling heat.
The four of them decided on one direction before moving forward quickly. The rows of footprints that they left in the desert were covered in less than 30 seconds, leaving no traces behind.
Although they were heavily injured, the powers of these four people allowed them to easily surpass the speeds of average humans and achieve the speed of a moving car.
Midday passed and late afternoon arrived before the temperature decreased gradually. Soon, they entered the area of the desert that was further away from the center.
Two weirdly-shaped white cars stopped right in front of them. A group of people got down from the car and walked towards Nasira and bowed in front of her respectfully. All of them were wrapped in white gauze, making it impossible to see their faces and bodies.
When they sat in this white car, they noticed that it was traveling at a frightening speed. The vehicle left the desert while the sky was dark before entering a little town on the border.
Only then did AG contact his own people. Throughout the journey, he did not mention the Thousand-Legged Serpent at all as if he was completely unconcerned about whether it was dead or alive. Perhaps Garen’s presence made it unnecessary for him to ask questions.
Garen contacted his own people as well. They were currently in the southern part of Africa where the Nighthawks’ base was also located.
At nightfall, some of his subordinates from the Nighthawks rushed over to the little town called Damu.
During the final burst of speed and flames, the four people, including Garen, had suffered serious injuries. Therefore, they returned to continue recuperating. They did not say much to each other before joining their own subordinates.

I’ll definitely visit you at the Holy Fist Palace when I’m free,
faint red light flashed in AG’s eyes before he left.

You are very welcome to do so,
Garen could feel the flourishing and terrifying Qi that was being released from AG’s body. It seemed as though he was anxious to return and seal his practice. Moreover, it was also clear that the big bag of medicinal herbs that he was carrying was extremely precious to him.
Compared to Nasira and Manasi, AG had already been much stronger than them previously. Now that he was given this opportunity, it was only a matter of time before he would be able to proceed with the terrifying living creature sacrifice that he was planning.
Although three of them had suffered heavy losses of power and were badly mauled this time, they were able to reap great rewards. It seemed as if AG was more likely to enter the Death Apostle level now while Garen had gained the Holy Phoenix’s true intentions and the Buddha Mother’s core.
Nasira and Manasi did not reap any physical gains, but this experience served as a great training experience for them. They were originally AG’s subordinates and part of his Lightless Alliance. Moreover, Nasira had once mentioned that AG had trained them since they were young as if they were his disciples but also his lovers, making the relationship between them very unusual.
When they left, Garen got into the Nighthawks mercenaries’ armored car and tidied himself up before leaving this little town called Damu.
Under the night sky, he sat in the car and looked at the nighttime scenery of Africa from afar. Along the yellow roads, gazelles would leap by occasionally while lions lay lazily by the roadside, waiting for the night which was their true hunting time.
Roar!!
A few lionesses and a male lion walked slowly and obstructed the middle of the road. When the heard the noises of the car, the pride of lions turned their heads and looked over. When the car lights shined on them, a glossy green sheen appeared in their eyes.
Usually, the armored cars would wait for the lions to back off upon realizing that they were in danger. However, they did not need to trouble themselves when Garen was in the car.
Behind the car window, he glared at the lions in front of him. His shadow that was in a sitting position twisted itself quickly and grew longer before extending towards the lion pride like a black shadow monster.
Whoosh!!
A few lions ran away in a frenzy before disappearing into the night without a trace.
The deputy of the convoy was a young muscular black man whose expression turned respectful and enthusiastic immediately.
The convoy continued moving forward. More than ten armored cars cruised through the road leisurely. Even elephant herds would flee in panic when they noticed Garen’s aura.

Commander, Master Hochman and Marshall Dahm have already arrived in Africa. They are currently on their way to meet you at top speed,
said an informant behind him softly at this moment.
The atmosphere within the car turned slightly stagnant at once.

Meet?
Garen chuckled. His face was utterly defeated and his entire body had suffered heavy injuries because his blood essence and aura were burnt. Moreover, his levels had deteriorated by a few degrees as well.

Looks like we went missing for a long period of time. Their injuries have healed completely. They still have the energy to meet me?

Garen laughed coldly.

Get rid of everyone in the third car,
he commanded suddenly.
The deputy was slightly shocked, and so was the informant behind him.

Do you not understand?
Garen eyed the deputy. The latter felt his entire body tremble suddenly before he turned on his communication device quickly and contacted the cars in the back.
Numerous armored cars stopped suddenly and blocked off the front, forcing the entire convoy to stop. Large groups of people in armor got down from the car before a series of loud gunshots could be heard shortly after.
Garen remained in his seat. There was a calm expression on his face but a hint of a sneer had appeared at the corners of his mouth.
