Deities: Starting From Goblins

Watching Logan arranging the array, the old man’s eyes brightened. Could it be an Array Master? No wonder he had the courage to enter the Secret Land even with only the Dominator Realm.

However, despite Logan’s intelligence, this desert had trapped him for a century, and Logan had only just entered recently; it was impossible for him to find a solution so quickly.

After the array was set up, it began to absorb the surrounding Law’s Force. The entire desert seemed about to shatter but then returned to normal.

Such a scene confirmed to Logan a fact: the desert was indeed constructed with Law’s Force, a genuinely existing microcosm.

The one capable of such feats, judging by the few Sanctuary Powerhouses Logan had encountered before, was obviously beyond their abilities. The constructor must be above the Holy See.

No wonder countless Sanctuary Powerhouses flocked to the Ancient Secret Realm to seek the truth! There truly were opportunities left by beings stronger than the Sanctuary Powerhouses. Logan was overjoyed; if he happened to obtain such opportunities, couldn’t he become a Sanctuary Powerhouse as well?

Of course, the priority was to leave this desert. Now that he knew it was constructed using an array, it should be easier to handle. The reason his previous array arrangement didn’t affect this part of the desert was that he didn’t use enough Spirit Stones. But what if he increased the power a hundredfold? Could the Law’s Force of these dead woods still hold up?

Logan took out ten million Spirit Stones and arranged an array that would absorb Law’s Force around him. Ten million Spirit Stones were enough to confront a Sanctuary Powerhouse. He didn’t believe he couldn’t break through this Law’s Force-created desert. Meanwhile, the old man went from disdain to increasing astonishment.

After all, he was a Sanctuary Powerhouse himself and could sense the chaos in the surrounding laws, all originating from the array Logan had just arranged. Now that he had taken out ten million Spirit Stones, perhaps a miracle could indeed occur.

The array formed with ten million Spirit Stones frenziedly absorbed the surrounding Law’s Force. In just a few moments, the entire barren land began to collapse, and seeing the desert no longer existed, the old man burst into hearty laughter, finally able to leave after being trapped for a century.

Then, the desert vanished, and they stood within a vortex, arriving moments later in a dense forest. The forest’s Spiritual Energy was particularly rich, dozens of times denser than in the outside world, and even the ordinary trees exerted the pressure of a Dominator.

The old man, at his wits’ end and oil drained, waved his hand, “Continue on your way. Being able to leave that desert in this lifetime is enough for me; my lifespan is gone. It’s just that I was waiting out of stubbornness all these years. Thank you for settling this matter on my behalf.”

“However, that desert was just the first challenge. To obtain the opportunity left by a being stronger than a Sanctuary Powerhouse, one must go through life-and-death ordeals. Too many Sanctuary Powerhouses have come here, and yet none have succeeded. You are different from the others; perhaps you can obtain it.”

Logan was filled with melancholy but suddenly thought of the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus he had: “Can a century-old Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus delay the ebb of your life?”

“This… Of course!” The old man was very excited upon seeing the Snow Lotus in Logan’s hand, “With this Snow Lotus, I can live for at least another month, although a month won’t make much of a difference. But as a Dominator Realm, I would like to see if you can obtain the opportunity.”

“Then take it,” Logan said as he passed the Snow Lotus to the old man. Logan had just arrived in the Ancient Secret Realm, and if he could get help from a Sanctuary Powerhouse, it would surely make things much easier.

A thousand words aside, Logan himself was merely at the Dominator Realm. While he could use an array against a Sanctuary Powerhouse, no enemy Sanctuary Powerhouse would give him the time to arrange an array in an actual confrontation.

After ingesting the Snow Lotus and a few moments of recuperation, the old man seemed to regain the vigor of his youth by a decade and his pale face no longer looked unnatural.

“Let me introduce myself; you can call me Wexler Daoist. I’m the Family Head of the Wexler Clan of the Western Wasteland. I once fought invincibly across the world by myself and was considered among the best, even among Sanctuary Powerhouses. Alas, a hundred years have changed the world,” the old man said with a kind smile while introducing himself, then inquired, “Fellow Daoist, from where do you hail? May I know?”

Wexler Daoist was very curious about Logan. He knew all the forces and Sects of the Ancient World, but could not figure out which Sect could have nurtured a Heavenly Pride like Logan. He had been trapped in the desert for a hundred years, yet Logan had passed in less than a day.

“The Wexler Clan? Sandy Wexler is…?” Logan was astonished after hearing this; in the Western Wasteland, the only Wexler Clan he knew was one of the three great Lords, Sandy Wexler, wasn’t it?

“You know him? I’m his third uncle,” Wexler Daoist was also surprised, “If I calculate it right, among the younger generation of the Wexler Clan, only he has both virtue and talent. Although his cultivation aptitude was lacking a bit, but after these hundred years, he should be the Family Head of the Wexler Clan.”

“He is the Family Head of the Wexler Clan, one of the three great Lords of the Western Wasteland, and has reached the Half-step Saint Seat. Unfortunately, due to an accident, he lost all his cultivation and needs decades to recover,” Logan nodded, knowing all too well that he was not just acquainted with Sandy Wexler; the two of them had a life-saving friendship, and the Wexler Clan owed him a favor.

Upon hearing this, the old man became anxious, promptly asking, “What happened to the Wexler Clan? Could it be that after a hundred years apart, the Wexler Clan has faced a great catastrophe that could lead to their destruction? What will the Wexler Clan do if something happens to him as the Family Head?”

“It seems that the previous Family Head hesitated when choosing who would be the Lord, ultimately selecting Sandy Wexler, which caused dissatisfaction among his children. After scheming for a century, they activated the City-protecting Array in a delusional attempt to resolve issues with Sandy Wexler. Fortunately, I intervened and put a stop to everything in the end.”
