CHAPTER TEXT:
When the time came to use the knowledge, Ye Zhongming suddenly felt a pang of regret for how little he knew.
The excitement he felt just moments ago had vanished without a trace.
Without understanding the star chart, he could not determine the position of the constellations. No matter how clever Ye Zhongming was, he could not solve this puzzle.
However, he realized that since he identified the problem, it was simply a matter of one word: find!
How to find it? Ye Zhongming decided to use the most straightforward approach.
He began to walk back, reaching the first palace he encountered, the Fly Palace, and then changed direction to walk towards the other side.
His method was to use the Fly Palace as a center point and draw circles around it!
It was a clumsy yet effective approach, ensuring he wouldn’t miss any direction. If the Centaurus was nearby, this method would definitely lead him to it.
It turned out that Ye Zhongming was right. After searching this way, he found that the second palace he encountered was indeed the Centaurus!
It was easy to confirm, just like the pattern on the Rebirth Clamp.
After adjusting his breathing, he climbed the steps and quickly reached the entrance of the palace.
Whether his guess was correct would depend on whether he could push open the palace door.
He pressed his hands against it, and then everything seemed to have an answer.
Nothing happened.
Ye Zhongming took a deep breath and pushed the palace door with all his strength.
In the next second, he saw the centaur monster standing in the center of the hall.
At the same moment, as Ye Zhongming took his first step into the hall, the seemingly sculpted centaur monster opened its eyes.
The two sides locked gazes at that moment.
Ye Zhongming appeared calm on the surface, but his heart was slightly startled. This centaur should be an extremely special mutated life form, but no matter how special, it was still a mutated life form and not an evolver. Why did it seem so calm? The gaze it directed at Ye Zhongming was cold, making one's heart tremble.
Could it be because it was a half-human, half-monster creature?
Ye Zhongming slowly drew out the sand dance, and the enhanced fire sand field immediately appeared around him. The faint red sand particles violently swirled within a five-meter radius, producing a soft whimpering sound as they rubbed against the air.
The temperature also began to rise, and any enemies entering the fire sand field would suffer continuous fire attribute damage.
On Ye Zhongming's body, the black halo shield took shape, while the Earth Spirit casually added black earth armor, instantly boosting his defense to a terrifying level.
But that wasn’t all. Beneath Ye Zhongming's feet, sand began to flow out, which was the storage space within the Bloodstained Battle Boots. Since his bloodline had been improved, they had been specifically storing this sand.
When the need arose, Ye Zhongming would activate his bloodline without hesitation.
The centaur remained still during this process, but when it finally saw the sand, it swung the white jade spear in its hand and then raised its front hooves suddenly, bringing them down hard on the ground.
"Ho!"
A roar erupted from the centaur’s mouth, shaking the entire ground as the sound reverberated in the space.
Ye Zhongming felt dizzy for a moment, immediately realizing that this monster's attack had already begun.
As the centaur's front hooves hit the ground and it roared, it immediately charged forward, its four massive white jade hooves producing rapid and rhythmic thumping sounds on the palace floor.
During the rapid charge, the spear in its hand was raised high, the tip shining brightly as its thick arm swung back.
Anyone could see that with its advance, the spear would follow suit, aiming to stab Ye Zhongming.
Unfortunately, Ye Zhongming had never been to the special roulette space in his past life, and naturally had no way of knowing what kind of monster this was. Had he known, he would recognize that both the stomp and the charge were the abilities of this centaur.
