Yet, no matter how Meng Lei attacked it, his attacks simply didn’t damage the divine spirit mark in the least.
“What a tough and durable divine spirit mark! Could a higher deity have been the one that had marked it?”
Meng Lei was rather shocked and apprehensive. At this moment, a green hue blossomed from the divine spirit mark and coalesced into a beautiful figure.
She had pointed ears, long blond hair that cascaded like a waterfall, peerless beauty, and a graceful figure. Her eyes were expressive, and she had a holy, pure aura around her.
“That’s...”
Meng Lei’s eyes bore into the newcomer as a guess formed in his mind. Among Heaven’s Vault Continent’s four great true gods, the Dragon God, the Beast God, and the Titan Spiritual God, were all males.
The Fairy Goddess was the only female deity among them!
“Little fellow, I’m very happy to see you.”
Her ruby-red lips parted as she spoke. Her voice was like the murmur of spring water, melodious and pleasant to the ears. She said, “I’m sure you must have guessed my identity by now. I am the Fairy Goddess.”
“Greetings, Your Holiness.”
Meng Lei bowed slightly in greeting. The other party was an ancient higher deity, whereas he was just a newly-ascended intermediate deity. Thus, he ought to show the Fairy Goddess due respect.
“I’ve taken notice of you a very long time ago,” the Fairy Goddess said as a smile appeared on her visage. “By achieving intermediate deity status before you’re even 20 years old, you can be said to be the number one person in Heaven’s Vault Continent’s history.”
“You flatter me, Your Holiness.”
Meng Lei bowed slightly.
“No, you’re indeed very excellent.”
The Fairy Goddess gave a small emotional sigh and said, “Even in the many high-end existential planes in the vast universe, you’d still be considered a one-in-100,000-years genius.”
“You give me too much credit, Your Holiness.”
Meng Lei blushed slightly.
“Little fellow, I’d like to ask you something. I hope you can answer me honestly,” said the Fairy Goddess.
“Feel free to ask away, Your Holiness.”
Meng Lei nodded slightly.
“When do you intend to leave Heaven’s Vault Continent?” The Fairy Goddess gazed seriously at Meng Lei. “And which faction do you intend to join?”
“I’ve not thought about that.”
Meng Lei shook his head and said, “As for which faction... I know nothing about the Void, much less where to even start with when it comes to joining factions.”
The Fairy Goddess nodded lightly to indicate that she understood. Then, she said, “With your talent and aptitude, lingering for a long time in a low-end existential plane like Heaven’s Vault Continent is honestly a waste of time. I’d suggest that you leave as soon as possible. High-end existential planes are where you should be shining instead.”
“Perhaps!”
Meng Lei was noncommittal. Before the system had upgraded, staying in Heaven’s Vault Continent was indeed of no help to him. However, now that the system had gained three new functions after its upgrade, everything had become completely different!
He could pick up things from high-end existential planes!
He could plunder the living beings on high-end existential planes!
There really wasn’t much meaning as to whether or not he went to high-end existential planes.
At the sight of Meng Lei’s noncommittal expression, the Fairy Goddess couldn’t help but become somewhat puzzled.
She wasn’t deceiving Meng Lei. To intermediate deities, there really wasn’t much point in lingering in low-end existential planes, so why was Meng Lei thinking otherwise?
Though puzzled, the Fairy Goddess didn’t press the issue. Instead, she said, “Little fellow, if there comes a day where you’d like to leave Heaven’s Vault Continent, you can go to the Fairies to look for me. I can lend you a hand.”
“Thank you for your guidance, Your Holiness.”
Meng Lei bowed slightly.
The Fairy Goddess gave him a smile that looked as if a blooming lily. She said, “Work hard, little fellow. I believe you’ll definitely achieve even greater glory in the future!”
Then, the Fairy Goddess’ form gradually dissipated, vanishing together with the divine spirit mark she had left on the Heart of The Existential Plane.
Meng Lei gazed at the Heart of The Existential Plane, and then, he bowed and said, “Thank you for fulfilling my wishes, Your Holiness!”
These words of gratitude came from his heart. Meng Lei knew very well that had the Fairy Goddess been unwilling to give up the Heart of The Existential Plane, there was no way he could have destroyed the divine spirit mark on the Heart with his current abilities.
Yet the Fairy Goddess had dispersed the divine spirit mark on her own accord. This was no different from gifting Meng Lei the Heart of The Existential Plane. How could he not be grateful to her?
Meng Lei refined the Heart of The Existential Plane and took complete control over Heaven’s Vault Continent. Then, he began to search the continent eagerly.
The Dragon God Empire...
The Titan Empire...
The Beast People Empire...
The Far Northern Icelands...
The Fairy Empire...
The Endless Oceans...
The Lost Continent...
Familiar-looking scenery flashed past one by one at high speed in Meng Lei’s mind. Compared to Demonic Dragon Continent, Heaven’s Vault Continent was no different from a tiny little island.
His line of vision left Heaven’s Vault Continent and came to the Endless Oceans. Several islands, big and small, came into view. The large ones were about the same size as the Lost Continent, while the small ones were no bigger than a few square kilometers.
Traces of humans and Beast People could be found on many of the islands. They lived far away from turmoil and disturbances and far away from civilization and made a living by fishing.
“I can’t find him! I still can’t find him!
“Eh? What’s that?”
Suddenly, a huge continent came into Meng Lei’s view. The continent was
