Chapter 314: Legendary Item

Chapter 314 Legendary Items

Deep within the abyss of the Endless Maze.

Li Wei and the Fire Element Elder stood before a prison cell.

Li Wei spoke, "Can you help me resolve him?"

The Fire Element Elder gazed at the legendary werewolf warrior confined within the jail.

He weighed the matter briefly, saying, "To slay it is not difficult."

"All wards of the Divine Prison target the inmates; standing outside, we remain unrestricted."

"This counts as one favor," the Fire Element Elder stated.

Li Wei nodded, "Yes, alright."

The Fire Element Elder waved his hand, a staff materializing in his palm.

One glance told Li Wei this staff was truly extraordinary.

Wielding the legendary staff, the Elder cast a spell against the caged werewolf.

"Incinerating Flame!"

Without visible motion, a crimson fire erupted upon the werewolf's form.

Beneath the burning red flames, the werewolf emitted ceaseless laments.

Controlled by the Elder, the red fire touched the anti-magic chains not at all.

The werewolf wailed while thrashing.

Yet the more it struggled, the stronger the Divine Prison's suppression grew.

Gradually, the werewolf's presence weakened.

Vital signs faded away slowly.

The Fire Element Elder said, "This is a legendary werewolf after all; known for regeneration, it cannot die quickly."

"Restricted by the Divine Prison, I cannot unleash greater attacks, we must wait."

Seizing this interval, Li Wei inquired about the Divine Prison.

"This is the Divine Prison? Who constructed it?" Li Wei asked.

Idle and bored, the Fire Element Elder proceeded to explain to Li Wei.

"Who built the Divine Prison, I do not know, perhaps only the Flame Sovereign knows," the Elder said.

Li Wei asked, "Is the Divine Prison meant to imprison gods? Or is it a prison owned by gods?"

The Elder replied, "The Divine Prison belongs to no deity; existing before gods arose, what you see is but a fragment."

Here lie many monsters far mightier than common gods.

Such as the legendary World-Destroying Serpent."

A thought struck Li Wei, he asked, "Does that serpent bear a hundred heads?"

Surprised, the Elder looked at him, nodding, "Legend claims so, yet none have witnessed it."

"It is said those who see the World-Destroying Serpent find their worlds already ruined."

"With the world ruined, naturally no survivors remain."

Li Wei pointed toward the massive cage in the distance.

He said, "The World-Destroying Serpent you speak of may be locked there, I just saw it."

The flames in the Elder's eyes flickered, struck by disbelief.

"The legend is actually true."

Li Wei said, "This place is now called the Endless Maze, do humans not know the truth?"

Recovering his composure, the Elder said, "Not necessarily; if anyone entered, they surely know the truth."

"Your Element Tower names this the Endless Maze, I know this; sometimes human mages summon me to the Prime Material, I hear such tales."

"Perhaps it began as the Endless Maze, and even upon discovery as the Divine Prison, the name was not changed publicly."

"To most, whether Endless Maze or Divine Prison makes little difference."

Li Wei nodded, sensing the Element Tower's elders might be concealing the Divine Prison.

Surely someone from the Element Tower had reached the maze's deepest core.

Even if the entrant did not recognize the Divine Prison.

If he lived to exit, carrying the interior's secrets out, outsiders would know this is the Divine Prison.

Li Wei conversed with the Fire Element Elder for a while.

The legendary werewolf finally perished in the flames.

It had endured centuries of torment. Already hanging by a thread.

Death now was a form of liberation.

Yet even dead, the anti-magic chains held fast, binding its corpse.

Li Wei employed Telekinesis to pluck the Blood Soul Flower nourished by legendary blood in the cage's corner.

Seeing the Blood Soul Flower, the Elder's gaze shifted slightly.

The flower held no utility for him.

He is an elemental being.

He needs no flower to merge soul and flesh.

However, he instinctively recalled his nemesis, the Legendary Lich.

To a Legendary Lich, the Blood Soul Flower is undoubtedly a treasure.

The Elder watched Li Wei silently, speaking nor acting.

As Li Wei prepared to depart.

The Elder reminded, "Do you not want the items from the legendary werewolf?"

Li Wei was puzzled, "What remains? Was it not all burned to charcoal?"

The Elder waved his hand, two sharp wolf fangs shot forth from the charcoal.

He said, "If I judge correctly, this werewolf is likely the legendary powerhouse Death Hunter from thirteen centuries past."

"I wonder how the renowned Death Hunter fell to this plight."

"However, the Death Hunter possesses a famed ability—Lethal Strike."

"Its fangs bear potent supernatural traits, inflicting lethal effects upon struck targets."

"Even against legendary powerhouses, there is some efficacy."

The Fire Element Elder handed the two sharp Death Wolf Fangs to Li Wei.

Levi was taken aback; this was already a treasure of legendary caliber.

He could not comprehend why the Fire Element Elder sought to grant it to him.

Noticing his confusion, the Fire Element Elder replied coolly, "I am merely a projected avatar, incapable of taking the Death Wolf Fangs with me.

To discard them here would be wasteful; I might as well gift them to you as a favor."

Observing this, Levi carefully accepted the two Death Wolf Fangs.

"Thank you."

Two additional trump cards secured.

Still, using the Death Wolf Fangs to wound a legendary powerhouse would prove difficult.

Levi wondered if he could forge these two Death Wolf Fangs into weapons.

Weapons bearing an instant-death effect.

That would be far more convenient than wielding them directly.

The Fire Element Elder spoke, "I depart; come find me should you require aid."

"You possess one remaining opportunity."

That final opportunity must be saved for encountering the Legendary Lich.

Levi watched the Fire Element Elder vanish from sight.

He surveyed his surroundings, intending to visit the other Divine Prisons.

Even without tangible reward, it would serve to broaden his perspective.

Levi flew toward the nearest other Divine Prison suspended in the void.

Crossing the void, Levi descended before a massive Divine Prison.

He sensed something amiss.

Given the size of the Divine Prison, the monsters confined within must be exceedingly powerful.

After pacing outside for a while, he cautiously entered the immense Divine Prison.

After walking for a long time, Levi finally saw what was imprisoned inside the Divine Prison.

A mountain of flesh, dyed blood-red.

Countless magic-suppressing chains pierced through the flesh, binding it within the Divine Prison.

Intricate divine runes floated densely in midair, enveloping the entire mountain of flesh.
