641: The girl's experience, the means left by ancient civilization
As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Dian felt something was off.
He merely wanted the girl to point out the direction of the temple and elaborate on the Legacy.
Why would the girl feel emotions like shame, anger, fear, and despair?
If she felt anger or unwillingness because her Legacy was coveted, Yang Dian would certainly understand.
If someone wanted to snatch his things, he would definitely feel such emotions too.
But why shame and despair?
'It's as if she doesn't want to go back to that place.'
'She doesn't even want to mention that place.'
Lost in thought, he turned to look at the girl, who was silently bowing her head.
Yang Dian raised an eyebrow, reached out, and hooked her chin, meeting her gaze filled with shame and fury as he spoke:
"Take me to the temple."
"Otherwise, the entirety of Greece will be buried with you."
As he spoke, he pointed to the military base by the Aegean Sea.
"I have the ability to do it, don't I?"
The Old Ancestor was right; a gentleman can be deceived by propriety.
For example, under Yang Dian's threat, the girl pointed towards the Aegean Sea.
"The temple is in the center of Lesbos Island."
Those words seemed to drain all her strength.
Glancing at the girl, who seemed to have lost all her vitality and whose face had turned incredibly pale, Yang Dian couldn't help but frown:
"Is there something bad inside the temple?"
Hearing Yang Dian's words, the girl's face grew even paler, her lips losing all color as she turned her head:
"Even if I tell you the dangers within the temple, will you abandon the idea of going there?"
Feeling the terror rising in the girl's heart, Yang Dian understood.
The temple indeed held danger, but it shouldn't be fatal.
If it were fatal, the girl wouldn't be standing before him.
However, the great man once said that strategically, one should despise the enemy, but tactically, one must take the enemy seriously.
Although Yang Dian didn't believe that a 'temple' that could only cultivate the girl to the Middle Stage of Star-Patrolling Realm and possess the Late Stage of Star-Patrolling Realm after an outburst could be that powerful.
But just in case, he still needed to ask clearly.
So, he spoke to the girl for the third time:
"Elaborate on the temple."
"Tell me what's inside the temple, and how you obtained the Legacy."
The girl's face, which had just regained a little color, turned pale again.
Under Yang Dian's coercion, the girl still recounted the nightmare she had experienced and never wanted to recall again:
"The ancient temple is in the center of Lesbos Island."
"There is a stone gate embedded in the earth there."
"Pouring the pure blood of a virgin onto the stone gate will summon a divine envoy to lead you, crossing the boundaries of heaven and earth, entering the entrance to the Divine Realm, which is the temple."
At this point, she shivered again:
"After entering the temple, the God King will awaken from his slumber and bestow the divine Legacy upon the arrival."
Looking at the girl's terrified expression, Yang Dian understood.
Who was the God King in Greek mythology?
Zeus.
How to describe Zeus?
The word 'stud' isn't enough to describe even a fraction of Zeus.
Calling him a tentacle monster might even be an understatement.
After all, tentacle monsters only prey on beautiful girls.
But what about Zeus?
Incest aside, he also liked to transform into various animals and have relations with other animals.
Indeed, sometimes he even transformed into a female animal to have relations with male animals.
If he were alive and came to modern times, even as a Mortal, he could walk sideways in America.
He simply couldn't be chosen, right?
Glancing at the girl, who seemed to have lost her Soul, Yang Dian suddenly felt a little pity for her.
If it really was Zeus... as the God of Procreation, that fellow had been cooped up in the temple for who knows how long; the fact that he let the girl out could only mean it wasn't easy.
Lost in thought, he flew to Lesbos Island.
But after circling the sky a few times, Yang Dian didn't find any stone gate in the core of the island.
Seeing Yang Dian's gaze fall on her, the girl shivered and then spoke:
"One needs to step onto the stone gate for the portal to appear before a Mortal's eyes."
As the girl's words fell, six characters appeared in Yang Dian's mind.
'Spatial concealment method?'
He carefully observed the island, even summoning the Dimension Butterfly to search around.
But neither he nor the butterfly found any trace of the stone gate.
Thinking of the light barrier that the Dimension Butterfly still couldn't Breakthrough, Yang Dian was thoughtful.
'Could it be something of the same Rank as the light barrier?'
After pondering for a while, Yang Dian decided to investigate.
'It can only cultivate a Star-Patrolling Realm enforcer; even if it's truly a god, it shouldn't be too outrageous.'
'Probably Star Dome Realm, at most Star Remains Realm.'
'Star Dome Realm, I can extinguish with a flick of my hand now.'
'Star Remains Realm, I'm not unable to fight.'
'If I really can't win, I'll just attract the Stellar Ancestor, take the others, and make a run for it, rebuilding Huaxia on Emerald Dragon Star.'
With that thought, Yang Dian no longer hesitated and directly brought the girl down to the ground.
"Take me to the stone gate."
Seeing her still looking utterly heartbroken, Yang Dian couldn't help but comfort her:
"You know, I won't allow any divine or ghostly things to appear on Earth."
"Take me to find the stone gate, break into the temple, and I will definitely chop off that God King's head."
"If you perform well, it's not impossible to give you his head to use as a chamber pot."
Yang Dian's words brought a glimmer of life back to the girl's eyes.
But after thinking of something, the light in her eyes dimmed a little again.
"The God King is invincible."
"But if you insist on seeking death~ heh."
In the girl's opinion, the God King was no good, and neither was Yang Dian.
It was a case of dogs biting dogs.
If Yang Dian and the God King could perish together, that would be for the best.
Having made up her mind, the girl forced herself to forget that dark experience and led Yang Dian into a valley covered with rubble.
As if sensing the girl's arrival, the ground on one side of the valley emitted a faint blue light.
Amidst 'kaka' sounds, stone carving symbols appeared on the ground, beginning to rotate and arrange, finally outlining the shape of a stone gate.
A subtle spatial fluctuation simultaneously appeared with the emergence of the stone gate.
'So, the reason I didn't find this place before was because the Formation here wasn't activated?'
He carefully sensed the stone gate and its surroundings, and Yang Dian's brows furrowed again.
'But there are no special energy fluctuations or special Formation structures around here.'
'How was it done?'
He paced closer to the stone gate, or rather, the teleportation gate.
During his careful observation, some previously unnoticed details were discovered by Yang Dian.
'There's a kind of dormant energy in the air that's impossible to detect without careful observation.'
'This dormant energy intertwines with 'Athena', gradually becoming active.'
'The active energy drives the surrounding Spiritual Qi, 'awakening' the Formation, activating the 'stone gate' as if it were one entity, causing the stone gate to induce the power of space during its transformation, opening the teleportation channel.'
'So, this is a method left by an ancient Greek civilization from who knows how many years ago?'
