...
While Leylin and others flew away from the Extreme Purgatory Field, the guard of this special prison staying on the other side of the star spotted commotion.
Shortly, the Jailor spread his order. War chariots flew out one by one, entering dark outer space.
The Extreme Purgatory Field was a magical area of the Dark Firmament Divine Nation. It was the training place for the new generation of experts. And now it suddenly had a commotion that made the Jailor freak out. He hastened to report Morgan Arman on the event.
The war chariots of the Extreme Purgatory Field turned in the sky before moving into outer space. Experts guarding the planet came to the Extreme Purgatory Field. Seeing the earth shaking and mountain collapsing in that area, their faces darkened. They knew something really troublesome had just happened and it was out of their ability to control it.
When Morgan got the news, he was frightened and indignant at the same time. He came there at his max speed and reported what happened to the owner of the Dark Firmament Divine Nation – Caligula Arman.
Unfortunately, Caligula seemed to seclude and cultivate. Morgan's report sank like a rock into the sea. He received no response. This made Morgan more anxious. He constantly ordered the Jailor to pursue and capture the escapees.
It was very dark and cold in outer space. Leylin didn't waste him time going back to Dark Firmament Divine Nation. There was nothing left to accomplish there, his path up ahead is to explore the secrets of this star map.
Waves of space energy rippled through his body. They seemed to be the doors that connected space to space shortly. Leylin and his subordinates figure pierced through waves like a meteor.
After travelling in the direction of Land of God Punishment for a while.
"Master... what should we do with this woman?" Khepri asked bowing his head respectfully. Fatima was still imprisoned in Leylin's space formation, Ghost Hunter in his beast form has been carrying her restricted body on his wide back.
Inside the space confinement, Fatima couldn't even bat her eyelashes. Back in the forbidden land, she could do nothing but listen as everyone else boarded the death train heading towards the netherworld of damnation.
The worst circumstances was that her back was facing the battleground where everyone fought so, she couldn't see anything just shudder in fear of the unknown.
The palaces around her shook while Leylin retrieved the star map. And as the forbidden land was about to collapse, Leylin ordered Ghost Hunter to bring Fatima with them.
..
Looking back, Leylin flew towards Fatima. With a borish look Leylin assessed the woman as if considering something.
After a while, he snapped his fingers. A loud clicking sound reverberated from his fingers and within moments the formation restricting Fatima collapsed.
As the formation broke like a fragile glass under Leylin, Fatima was freed and she couldn't help but exhale in relief.
Shortly after, she batted her long eyelashes and opened her eyes.
Leylin's nonchalant and uncaring face appeared clearly in her eyes at the very first moment.
The infuriating memories flooded her instantly. Fatima gritted her teeth, anger brewing across her exquisite face but just then numerous cold, murderous intentions locked her.
The helplessness she felt, the fear she experienced, the suppression she suffered was still fresh in her mind. She knew deep inside that even with all of her Trump cards she can't survive against this man.
*Sigh*
"What do you want?" Fatima had a defeated expression, she knew Leylin won't let her live unless she has something of value.
"I don't understand why this happened...so many years and so many sacrifices....And in the end I still lost. If I lose to those three I'll still be able to swallow it but just a kid."
"I can guess that you know nothing about the star map. Why did you poke your nose into this? Which force do you belong to? Did Caligula assign you?"
Leylin shook his head with a smile, "You lost because that's the destiny of all who stand in my way. And yeah, I do know nothing about the star map. As for Caligula assigning me, let's just say he's not qualified. I work for no one, do you want to know why?"
"Because I am the one, to be the one, who's gonna beat everyone, to be the number one."
'What arrogance!?' Fatima snorted, and immediately she felt numerous enraged eyes looking at her savagely. Ghost Hunter, Khepri and Holy Spirit God obviously didn't take her disagreement in a positive light.
"I am not arrogant, it's just the confidence of a God to be. Well we don't need to talk about that, not that I think you would understand anyway."
Pausing for a while, Leylin suddenly beamed a smile. "Now that this star map is in my hands now. I'll give you a chance to tell me the secret of the star map. If you are going to be honest, we can exchange it for your life."
"Do you think I am an idiot? Why would you let me live? Aren't you afraid I'll spread the news about you?"
"I don't need to negotiate with you silly girl. If I want to kill you it's too easy, and if I said I won't, I won't! As for exposing me and my information...."
"There are three reasons you won't do that. First you'll get nothing except for revenge but we don't have that deep of a grudge anyway. Secondly, I don't care anyways. Although I usually prefer to stay anonymous, I don't necessarily fear exposure. Thirdly, it's cute of you to think I'll give you the chance to target me. I won't kill you, but I can distort your memory or just confine you in a desolate corner of the world for a few hundred years. By the time, you come out I'll be far gone ahead so much so you can only look up to me."
"At that time, you could only reminisce about me and probably tell the story to your kids how you met me and they would say, 'Oh really mom!? You really met him.. wow! so cool, he's my idol' or something like that."
Fatima looked at Leylin 'boasting'. Her gloomy eyes became begrudgingly bitter.
"Listen. You don't know about the star map. Why don't we make a deal. I'm sure I can grant you much more wealth and status than what you could have in the Dark Firmament Divine Nation. How does that sound?" Fatima contemplated for a while then she offered him greater benefits in the hope that he would consider it.
"No." Leylin had a short and bitter answer for her offer.
"What do you want then?" Fatima felt her head throb. "You've taken everything I've worked for and you know nothing about the star map. What can you do with the star map?"
While squinting, Leylin smiled for the second time,"Don't test my patience, you think I can't kill you and take your soul memories just because you have the Third Sky of King God Realm cultivation base."
"I am not a normie, keep in mind. Things that are usually impossible to do, is what I am an expert in doing."
Usually, only the warriors at a relatively high realm could confine the other people's God Soul and snatch its memories. Such warriors could know its thoughts and experiences.
In other words, unless someone of the Original God Realm makes a move, it would be hard to kill Fatima and check her God Soul but such restrictions are paper thin before Leylin.
So far all the people that he soul searched were higher realm than him.
However, if Fatima killed herself and exploded her God Soul before he could do anything, even if he had many ways to restrain, he would end up with nothing gained.
Normally, Leylin won't give such an opportunity to anyone but Leylin knows that this woman before him isn't just an average peak King God realm warrior with no backup.
Leylin with his mastery of divination could feel a pull in his immortal demon blood in regards to the fate of this woman.
This scenario is quite similar to when he met Ordell and Neelam, although Fatima's fate is innumerable times weaker than them it's still there.
'A candidate with qualifications to become my vessel. Well she didn't lose against Ghost Hunter who could normally defeat a Third Sky of King God Realm, her powers are doable. Her potential isn't outstanding but it's not that bad either.'
Leylin's said, "Well let's begin from the top. From what I have gathered the star map's secrets are pretty colossal. It made the Nine Star Chamber of Commerce and the Underworld League plan in secret for hundreds of years. What is this secret exactly? Who are you? Which is the force behind you?"
Fatima's beautiful brows knitted together. She pondered for a while before saying quietly, "Have you ever heard about Weerlig Kaloz?"
"Weerlig Kaloz of the Land of God Punishment? The leader of the outer space pirates?" Leylin raised his eyebrows.
After he had talked to Bloody Slaughterer Kato, he paid attention to space pirates. He read about the Land of God Punishment.
In the Raging Flame Star Area, the strongest forces were, of course, the Dark Firmament Divine Nation, the Underworld League, and the Nine Star Chamber of Commerce. However, besides these three forces, other powerful forces lived in Raging Flame Star Area.
Weerlig Kaloz was one of them. And he was the one they had to pay the most attention to.
The outer space pirates were loosely organized. They hid in dangerous areas of the Raging Flame Star Area. Space pirates gathered the most in the Land of God Punishment, which was also a powerful force that held lots of influence.
The Land of God Punishment was a unique area with fatal, unseen dangers. There was no life star suitable for warriors to cultivate. Besides the Dark Firmament Divine Nation, the Underworld League, and the Nine Star Chamber of Commerce, that place could be the cradle of the fourth strongest force of the Raging Flame Star Area.
Countless space pirates created a loose organization to resist the pursuit and attack from the other three big forces. Weerlig was the strongest force among the pirates. He gradually became their leader.
The Land of God Punishment was the refuge of countless robbers, thieves, villains, and madmen. It was packed with reckless experts. Weerlig was the hidden boss of the Land of God Punishment. Many transactions happened there under his supervision and management.
Weerlig himself was a top expert of the entire Raging Flame Star Area at the Second Sky of Original God Realm. His power was marvelous and so was his force, which consisted of savage members.
Compared to him, Bloody Slaughterer Kato was a pirate who was not worth mentioning. In many businesses, he relied on Weerlig.
This man was prominently braver and smarter than the others. He was infamous for his brutal and merciless deeds.
If that area weren't restricted, and the other three forces hadn't cleaned it up from time to time, perhaps his force could have been able to compare with the Dark Firmament Divine Nation, the Underworld League, and the Nine Star Chamber of Commerce.
This man had abilities and a huge force that supported him and obeyed his commands. He was almost the same as Caligula, the evil overlord of a vast region.
Leylin was astounded and soon a knowing smile adored the corner of his mouth, "What's you surname again?"
"Hmph! I am Fatima Kaloz!"
Fatima chinned up, snorting arrogantly. "My reputation isn't less than him in the Land of God Punishment. Because of the star map, I had to enter the Extreme Purgatory Field."
"What do you, father and daughter want from the star map?"
Fatima smirked, ignoring his question.
"Well, I forgot to tell you that I've used my secret technique to report to my father. No matter what happens to me, if you dare show your face in the Raging Flame Star Area, my father won't spare your life," threatened Fatima. "You've messed with the wrong person!"
"Oh that's surely disastrous for me." Leylin replied sarcastically with a straight face. He also couldn't resist letting a yawn out.
"You!?" Fatima was enraged. She could see in Leylin's eyes that only showed her mocking intentions.
"Baby, you really think I don't know you are just spouting nonsense. Your every action has been under my observation from the moment we met. You want to distract me to recuperate, and just when you think the time is right, you'll try to sneak attack me and inform your father."
Fatima face paled, she bit her lips and looked at Leylin furiously, "If I die my father would know as well, He'll know you killed me."
"So what? He won't dare to step foot in the Dark Firmament Divine Nation."
"But the map shows the direction of the Land of God Punishment," Fatima sneered, "The direction you were fleeing towards was also towards that place. It proves that our presumption is correct. My father would figure out that you have the star map now. He also knows that you will have to go near the Land of God Punishment. Do you think you will stay alive if you decide to go find the spot on that map? Even if you can find it, what can you do here? Can you hide the life star away? Can you move the part of the land that we haven't investigated yet?"
Leylin's eyes sparkled with a strange light that was like two silky ribbons. He couldn't help let out a laugh, "So the star map leads to a life star? An unexploited star area? Who would have guessed? Tell me more..."
Fatima was startled and she looked at him for a while, weighing the pros and cons of telling him. She decided to tell him. "It can't be concealed for a long time anyway. Five former Imperial Masters of the Dark Firmament Divine Nation used to work around the Land of God Punishment. They found a secret passage leading to another star area near the Land of God Punishment. I heard that this star area isn't vast. It has around ten life stars including a level 7 star and several big mineral stars. They hide enormous divine crystal mines and more strange crystals. They even have spiritual grass and plants that we directly use. The place contains items that warriors have dreamed of. However, that star area doesn't have any guards or living creatures."
Paused for a while, She continued. "People have come there to explore. The three forces and the outer space pirates have tried too. But they achieved nothing. However, rumours say that the Imperial Master of the Dark Firmament Divine Nation went there before. They also made a star map. We can't verify these rumors. However, I believe it now. Once the news spreads out, many people will believe it. They will become crazy from knowing it."
"..Around ten life stars and even the level 7 one, divine crystal mines, countless herbs and spiritual grass. These things are surely enough to make anyone go crazy." Leylin muttered.
"Listen to me, without a huge force you can't pocket this wealth. Join hands with me, you are a talented person. My father would welcome you with open arms, I am sure that with your strength and ability you can take a large bite from this wealth if you have our support." Fatima urged. If Leylin really agreed with her, that would really be for the best. Obviously she had wild desires to shut his mouth but if he proved his strength, then there would still be a chance of reconciliation.
They aren't mortal enemies, she had seen his ability and powers, first hand especially his earth shaking Blacksmith and formation master skills. He'll be an asset for them, who can say that the imperial masters didn't set up any traps and more formation at the star map destination. A capable formation master would be key to success then.
Although the Raging Flame Star Area had many life stars, none of them were level 7. The Dark Firmament Star of the Dark Firmament Divine Nation was just between level 5 and 6.
A level 7 life star could nurture countless precious natural products. Earth and heaven energy would be abundant and it could even be materialized. The energy could turn into visible mist, which brought unimaginable benefits to warriors.
The life stars itself would make any forces crazy for them, let alone the additional divine crystal mines and spiritual herbs. Who wouldn't be excited from hearing about those?
