As Thresh's voice fell, he embraced the strange steel helmet and stepped into the portal.
Just as Thresh was leaving, the left wall of the secret room suddenly shook. It was not the wall that was shaking, but the fluctuation of space.
There is nothing left in the empty secret room, but at the bottom of the pool that once held the water of life, there is a small groove that still looks brand new after years of erosion.
The shape of this groove is very similar to something, very much like... the World Rune!
Perhaps, the reason why the Water of Life appeared was because of the magical rune that created this continent.
What no one knows is that thousands of years ago, right next to the pool of water of life, due to the effect of the world rune, the curtain between the material realm and the underworld became blurred. This is the place where the material realm is closest to the underworld!
When the power of the water of life collided with Viego's sword of kings - Mu Qing, the curtain became even more blurred, so blurred that
The powers of the Underworld are powerful enough to cross the veil into the material realm!
(Happy National Day everyone, have fun, muah!)
141. Chapter 141 Zoran, Zorannie! It turns out that he is not only a gamer
Zoran, in the east of Shurima.
The tide of yellow sand carved out a path between the rocks and formed a magnificent sand waterfall on the edge of the cliff. The sky full of yellow sand was like a swarm of locusts that devoured people, submerging everything in its path.
Ever since Zuo Chi, Kassa and his group left Zoran last time, the Axe clan has completely occupied this place.
In the center of Zolan, the deep pit that leads directly to the ground is already crawling with void creatures wearing dark purple armor.
It has been who knows how long since any living creature appeared here. Even a passing dune hound would be torn apart by these void creatures in an instant.
But today, Zoran's magic barrier, which had existed for who knows how many years, suddenly began to fluctuate.
"Buzz!"
Just like a smooth mirror being broken, the barrier began to ripple, and the hole on it quickly expanded, and a figure appeared at the entrance of Zoran.
It was a tall female figure holding a curved-blade chainsaw, wearing strange bone armor, with dark purple skin and white hair.
Darkin - Zolani!
After trying her best to escape from the Wuji Sword Sect in Ionia, Zolani completely concealed her breath and used her broken body to search for the flesh and blood.
From Ionia to Shurima, Zolani has always been searching for a suitable body.
Like Aatrox, she would not be satisfied with taking over a person's fragile body. She would only use a powerful body as a basis to engage in endless devouring and evolution.
As the founder of blood magic, Zolani possesses abilities that no one else in this world possesses.
She is like a cancer cell. As long as she can devour enough energy and flesh and blood, she can achieve almost infinite evolution.
Now, after absorbing the bodies of many flesh and blood creatures, Zolani's power has become infinitely close to what it was before being sealed by the Protoss.
It was at this time that Zolani returned to Shurima.
Her grand undertaking is about to begin, and she will achieve her ultimate goal on the land that she once determined to protect.
The first thing she had to do was to gather her former followers.
Aatrox has followers, and so does Zolani!
At this time in the valley behind Zolani, the dense corpses of void creatures piled up into a small hill, and the pungent stench almost turned into a blood-red cloud rising into the sky.
Passing through the magic barrier, Zolani's feet stepped on the land of Zolan.
After thousands of years, she finally returned to her hometown, but now it was completely unrecognizable.
Looking up into the distance, Zolani looked at the high mountain deep in Zolan. If she remembered correctly, there should be a statue of her on the mountain.
However, when Zolani looked there, her brows furrowed.
There, she saw a mountain that had been completely torn apart, and the place where her statue had originally been had long since disappeared.
Zolani may never know that not long ago, a group of people came here, tore her statue to pieces, and buried Rek'Sai in that tunnel.
Zolani's appearance instantly attracted all the void creatures on the land of Zolan. They shook their huge bodies and turned their heads towards the direction where Zolani was.
Then, endless roars sounded, and void creatures like a mountain torrent and tsunami rushed towards Zolani.
A massive number of void creatures like this are enough to tear a human army into pieces in an instant, and even some low-level ascenders in the past have to temporarily avoid the attack.
However, when these void creatures rushed towards Zolani, Zolani's body showed no signs of retreating.
A rich bloody aura gushed out of the curved-blade chainsaw in her hand, and the dim blood light almost condensed into real blood. Zolani swung the chainsaw in her hand, and it turned into a stream of blood-colored light and rushed towards the oncoming void creatures.
"puff!"
Pulled by the chain, the chainsaw stabbed straight out, instantly piercing through the bodies of the few Axels in the front.
The chainsaw was retracted, and Zolani, whose figure was much smaller than Axel's, rushed into the dense pile of void creatures.
For a moment, the shrill roars of the void creatures were endless, and the dark red blood sometimes turned into swords, and sometimes turned into sticky ribbons. Every time the blood passed through a void creature, a huge corpse fell to the ground.
Zolani's figure flashed quickly, the sound of chains was crisp and pleasant, and the sound of chainsaw cutting flesh was so creepy.
It was unknown how much time had passed, but in the Zolan land surrounded by mountains, there was no one left standing except the figure holding the curved-blade chainsaw chain.
"Tick tock~!"
Sticky blood dripped from Zolani's weapon, while she looked at everything around her with an indifferent expression.
Zolani's body slowly flew up, and she came to the cliff where her statue was originally located, and stopped on a protruding stone platform.
Now that all the obstacles in the way have been cleared away, it's time to summon your believers!
Standing on the cliff, Zolani opened her arms and looked at the earth below with a look of contempt.
A blood-red light began to glow in her hands, and gradually, the magic barrier protecting Zolani began to dissolve, and Zolani's aura of power, along with the Shurima storm, swept to every corner of Shurima.
"My followers, I am here!"
"Follow the guidance of blood and soul, come to me, and I will lead you to a world without war and suffering!"
Zolani's voice continued to echo among the mountains. At the same time, people from all over Shurima turned their heads and looked in the direction of Zolan.
Thousands of years ago, during the Darkin War, Aatrox conquered a group of Darkin followers with his own charm.
And she, Zolani, also won over a group of believers with her idea of eliminating war in the world.
Although their fighting power cannot compete with the powerful Darkin, once their numbers increase, the quantitative change will lead to a qualitative change!
Sitting cross-legged on the stone platform, Zolani closed her eyes and carefully sensed the breath of her compatriots.
After a long time, Zolani slowly opened her eyes.
At this moment, an inexplicable flash of blood suddenly appeared in her eyes.
"Aatrox, do you want to lead your subordinates to attack me? Come on.
I really want to see how wonderful your expression will be when your brothers and sisters raise their weapons against you!"
"And the first one is Anaca!"
Just as Zolani said, as the first Darkin to feel the general's call and break the seal, at this time, the Darkin spear from Freljord - Anaca, has followed the general's call and came to the continent of Shurima!

On the other side, after leaving Shadow Island, Zuo Chi flew all the way to the east.
[Congratulations to the host for helping Maokai realize his dream. Please choose one of the following four rewards! ]
finally come.
Looking at the blue light curtain appearing in front of him, Zuo Chi couldn't help but feel deeply excited.
Maokai's wish is arguably the most difficult one to fulfill so far.
In order to help him fulfill his wish of purifying the Shadow Isles, Zuo Chi traveled across almost half of Runeland, involving as many as ten demigods!
Fortunately, it was finally completed. Thinking of this, Zuo Chi looked down at the four options below.
[1 bucket of Water of Life: A high-level legendary item, holy water containing powerful life force, which can provide the host with a large amount of magic power and vitality. ]
[Nature's Language: Gain the ability to communicate with animals and plants, and gain closeness to all animals and plants.]
[Natural Elemental Magic: Maokai's original magic. After learning it, you will gain the ability to manipulate natural elements.]
[Darkin Weapon - Halberd: A mysterious Darkin weapon sealed in the underground treasure house of Shadow Island, a mid-level legendary weapon.]
"???"
Looking at the four options in front of him, Zuo Chi's heart couldn't help but skip a beat.
He had to admit that although the process of realizing his wish was very difficult, the rewards were also extremely gorgeous.
The third option is undoubtedly the ability to control natural elements that Zuo Chi has always been thinking about, that is, Maokai's original magic.
But except for the third one, Zuo Chi was very excited about the other three options, especially the last one.
It’s actually a Darkin weapon! ?
From the time Zuo Chi came to Runeland until now, he has never seen such a reward prompt.
However, Zuo Chi was a little hesitant. After all, he had no idea about this weapon at all, and he could not judge which side the Darkin sealed in the weapon belonged to.
What if a Darkin appears in the same team as Zolani? Wouldn't that be delivering supplies to the enemy?
However, now that he has learned the location of this Darkin weapon, Zuo Chi can go back to Shadow Isles after finishing his work here.
As for now, Zuo Chi naturally had no hesitation and directly chose the third option.
Although the first two options, Water of Life and Language of Nature, are equally attractive, based on the current situation, the third one will bring the greatest improvement to Zuo Chi.
He pointed his finger at the third option, and the light curtain in front of him turned into a blue light spot and merged into Zuo Chi's body. At the same time, a golden-green sapling mark appeared between Zuo Chi's eyebrows.
(I can’t put it down anymore. I have to wait until I ascend to merge it.)
At the moment when the sapling mark emerged, Zuo Chi only felt that his perception of the wood element magic in the surrounding air became very strong. The tree was like a part of Zuo Chi's body, and he could control it to change its shape at will.
Raising his hand, a light green light rose from Zuo Chi's hand, and then thick thorn vines slowly emerged from Zuo Chi's hand, and then wrapped around his arm as if they had life.
Raising his eyebrows slightly, the vines in Zuo Chi's hand gradually faded away. At the same time, he did not hesitate any longer and rushed forward quickly.
After crossing the vast Sea of Watchers, a lush green soon appeared in front of Zuo Chi.
Unlike the newly emerged green of Shadow Isles, the forest in front of Zuo Chi has existed for who knows how many years.
