Not to mention the birth of a planetary Companion Beast, even the birth of Calamity-grade powerhouses brought about huge disasters. The birth of a planetary Companion Beast would bring a huge disaster to the planet itself, and it might even lead to the planetâs destruction.
Just as the silver-haired Companion Beast had said, how could his birth have happened silently, to be easily dug out from an ancient well?
âI was, but currently not completely one,â the silver-haired Companion Beast said. âWhat do you mean?â Zhou Wen frowned. He really didnât understand.
âIn theory, I should be. Unfortunately, something went wrong. Earth produced another Companion Beast, so Iâm not completely one.â The silver-haired Companion Beast sighed.
âIâve never heard of such a thing.â Zhou Wen really couldnât believe everything the silver-haired Companion Beast said.
âYou wonât believe me no matter how I explain it. However, as long as you open it, you will naturally know the truth,â the silver-haired Companion Beast said.
After all that, he returned to the starting point. This gave Zhou Wen a headache.
He looked at the metal slab and frowned in silence.
The silver-haired Companion Beast didnât rush him. He just looked at Zhou Wen as though he was certain that Zhou Wen would open the metal slab.
After some thought, Zhou Wen decided to open it.
At this stage, if he didnât open it now, he probably wouldnât have another chance after he went to Chess Mountain.
âŚâŚ
The truth was right in front of him. If he stopped moving forward, how could he obtain the truth? Sometimes, risks needed to be taken without stepping back. âYouâve finally made a decision. Thatâs good.â The silver-haired Companion Beast saw through Zhou Wenâs thoughts and spoke with a smile.
âHow do I open it?â Since he had already made up his mind, Zhou Wen didnât waste his breath.
âYou can treat it as a box encrypted by a passcode. As long as you know the passcode, you can open itâŚâ the silver-haired Companion Beast said.
Zhou Wen didnât know if the passcode was the metal slabâs passcode, so he entered the passcode left behind by the former principal according to the method mentioned by the silver-haired Companion Beast.
Crack!
After entering the password, the metal slab suddenly cracked.
The metal slab was originally one without any gaps, but now, it had cracked neatly. Then, it split into four pieces and slowly spread out, revealing the space inside.
When the metal slab was completely opened, Zhou Wen saw everything inside. His expression couldnât help but turn nasty as he turned to look at the silver-haired Companion Beast.
The silver-haired Companion Beast seemed very surprised as well. His eyes were somewhat dazed, and his expression changed from surprise to disbelief before turning to anger.
âB*stard, that b*stard lied to me⌠He actually dared⌠He actually daredâŚâ The silver-haired Companion Beast seemed extremely furious.
His silver hair fluttered despite the air being still as it stood up vertically. His body emitted a resplendent silver light.
With just a slight exertion of strength, he produced cracking sounds. The metal chains that restrained him snapped inch by inch.
If Zhou Wen hadnât isolated this space, such a huge commotion would have long attracted the people from Xiyuan Store.
âNice acting,â Zhou Wen said coldly as he stared at the silver-haired Companion Beast.
âActing? I spent most of my life acting for you? F*ck acting!â the silver-haired Companion Beast cursed angrily.
âWhatâs going on?â Zhou Wen realized that he didnât seem to be acting. He was indeed extremely angry. The grievance didnât seem to be faked.
cem
âThat b*stard said that he placed that thing inside. As long as I break free, the thing inside will automatically be destroyed. Only the passcode can open itâŚâ The more the silver-haired Companion Beast spoke, the angrier he became. His eyes were filled with hatred as though he wanted to tear a living person apart and eat them.
Zhou Wen wore an odd expression. If it was really as the silver-haired Companion Beast had said, he was too miserable. In order not to destroy the thing inside the metal slab, he had been trapped here for decades. At the end of the day, there was nothing inside.
âWho is the person youâre talking about?â Zhou Wen was somewhat curious. What kind of talent could fool a fellow who claimed to be Earthâs Companion Beast to such an extent?
âApart from that b*stard, Ouyang Ting, who else?â The silver-haired Companion Beast gritted his teeth as every word seemed to be squeezed out from his clenched teeth.
Zhou Wen had long guessed it, but he was still surprised when he heard the silver-haired Companion Beast say the name.
I never expected the former principal to have played such a trick, Zhou Wen thought to himself.
âWhereâs that b*stard Ouyang Ting? Iâm going to kill him!â The silver-haired Companion Beastâs eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Zhou Wen and asked.
âHe should be at the Holy Temple,â Zhou Wen said after some thought.
âWhat kind of place is the Holy Temple?â the silver-haired Companion Beast asked with a frown. âDonât you know about the Holy Temple? Itâs the Holy Land that the dimension established on Earth.â Zhou Wen explained the origins of the Holy Temple.
âImpossible.â Upon hearing the establishment of the Holy Temple, the silver-haired Companion Beast suddenly interrupted Zhou Wen.
âAt that time, even the Immortals at their peak couldnât develop such an area on Earth, much less the five dimensional races,â said the silver-haired Companion Beast.
âHow do you know itâs impossible?â Zhou Wen asked.
âWhat kind of place do you think Earth is? Is it a place where those nobodies can behave atrociously? ThatâsâŚâ The silver-haired Companion Beast suddenly stopped.
âThatâs what?â Zhou Wen pressed.
âAnyway, itâs impossible for those idiots to have developed such a place on Earth at that time. Itâs impossible even if they used all the dimensional powers.â The silver-haired Companion Beast clearly didnât want to reveal those secrets.
Zhou Wen found it funny when he heard that. For someone who had been fooled by an empty box for decades, he was one to call others idiots.
âI got it! Holy Temple⌠I seeâŚâ The silver-haired Companion Beast suddenly gritted his teeth and shouted.
Without waiting for Zhou Wen to ask him anything else, the silver-haired Companion Beast suddenly leaped up with a boom.
The entire building, along with the underground chamber, was penetrated. The silver-haired Companion Beast transformed into a silver stream of light that disappeared.
Zhou Wen hurriedly chased after him. With his present speed, he could easily catch up to the silver-haired Companion Beast even without instant transmission.
What surprised Zhou Wen was that the silver-haired Companion Beast didnât seem to have lied to him. The silver-haired Companion Beastâs strength was probably at the Terror grade. At most, it was at the peak of the Terror grade.
Zhou Wen didnât stop the silver-haired Companion Beast because he could tell that he was heading in the direction of the Holy Land.
Zhou Wen was surprised again when the silver-haired Companion Beast flew, his speed became faster and faster. Soon, he broke through.
Zhou Wen could clearly sense that the silver-haired Companion Beastâs energy was increasing at an unbelievable speed.
What surprised him even more was that wherever the silver-haired Companion Beast flew, all sorts of plants rapidly grew. Even the withered flowers and trees instantly revived as though spring had instantly descended to the land.
Could it be that this fellow is really as he said, Earthâs Companion Beast? Zhou Wen seemed to begin believing what the silver-haired Companion Beast had said.
