Chapter 950 Mysterious Beasts
Lin Qiye took a few steps closer and glanced down.
He couldn't understand the words on the stone tablet.
It is not any script from the secondary universe.
It is not a universal rune of the original universe.
It's more like some kind of extremely ancient divine inscription, 90% worn away by time.
He reached out to touch it.
Before my fingertips even touched the surface of the stone tablet, the cracks suddenly lit up.
A dark red light surged from the crack and shot straight into Lin Qiye's brow.
Lin Qiye shuddered violently.
Countless fragmented images exploded in my mind—
A vast cosmic battlefield.
Countless powerful warriors clashed.
The laws collapsed, and stars fell.
A colossal, indescribable figure plummeted from the void, shattering countless star fields before finally landing on this desolate wasteland, turning into countless ashes.
As the figure fell, it was still bound by countless chains.
At the end of the chain was a hand even larger than the figure.
The hand reached down from the void of a higher dimension, its five fingers spread, trying to grab the falling figure back.
But just as he was about to grab it, the falling figure suddenly disintegrated.
It turned into billions of broken bones, scattered across this wasteland.
The hand grasped at empty air.
Then slowly retract.
The image disappeared.
Lin Qiye suddenly opened his eyes.
He found himself kneeling before the stone tablet, his forehead covered in cold sweat.
The cracks on the black stone tablet had faded, and it had returned to its previous appearance.
It was as if it had never been lit.
Lin Qiye was panting heavily.
Those images were too shocking.
What exactly was that falling figure?
Then where does the hand that grabs it back come from?
he does not know.
But he knew one thing.
This wasteland of ashes is not some "ancient battlefield".
It was formed from the bones of a truly terrifying being that fell to earth.
And those spreading crystals—
It is very likely that some kind of instinct remaining in that being.
It is trying to reorganize.
Lin Qiye stood up and didn't look at the stone tablet again.
He turned around to determine the direction.
Then--
His expression changed slightly.
He went the wrong way.
He had been running so fast that he was only focused on avoiding the spreading crystals and hadn't paid any attention to where he was stepping.
Looking back now.
The arena was not behind him.
On his left.
And the distance—
It's farther than when he came.
He was pursued by the crystal and strayed from the path by at least two hours.
Lin Qiye frowned.
He re-identified his location.
To return to the arena, we need to turn back.
However, the route back will pass through the area where the crystal just exploded.
Although that area has returned to its deathly stillness, who knows if those crystals will ever awaken again.
Lin Qiye hesitated for a moment.
The final decision was to take a detour.
He looked up and gazed ahead.
Beyond the shallow crater blasted open by the crystal, the terrain of the wasteland slowly rises.
On the horizon, a dark outline can be faintly seen.
It's not the sky.
It is a mountain.
A massive mountain.
The mountain rose abruptly from the wasteland of ashes, like a giant black sword stuck in the earth.
The mountain surface was not covered with ashes.
It was completely black, like a charred rock.
Clouds and mist swirl around the mountainside.
Do not--
That's not mist.
It was some kind of dark gray gas that kept gushing out from the cracks in the mountain, gathering halfway up the mountain and forming a thick layer of mist.
Lin Qiye looked at the mountain, his brows furrowing even more.
He had not seen this mountain when he arrived.
Either the distance was too far and he didn't notice.
Or—
This mountain was only revealed after the crystal shattered.
If this mountain was indeed created by crystal blasting, then it proves one thing.
Beneath the remains of that fallen being, something else is buried.
The mountain buried them deeper than the bones.
Lin Qiye's mind raced.
He needs to return to the arena.
Luo Sheng and the child are still waiting for him.
I've already bought the Yuanqing Pill, there's no need to linger here any longer.
But just then—
A low, hoarse howl came from the direction of the mountain.
The sound was like the roar of some kind of wild beast.
But it is more somber and desolate than a wild beast.
It was as if something had been sleeping in that mountain for millions of years, and had just been awakened by the noise of the crystals shattering.
Lin Qiye stopped in his tracks.
He turned his head and looked at the mountain.
The dark gray mist on the mountainside was churning violently.
It looked like something enormous was moving through the fog.
The hoarse howl rang out again.
This time it's even closer.
Lin Qiye could even feel the layer of ashes beneath his feet trembling slightly.
"The things inside..."
He muttered to himself.
It's not a question.
It is a statement.
There are living things inside.
Moreover, it is an extremely powerful living thing.
The aura contained in that hoarse howl was ten times more terrifying than the seven alien races in the Bone Ruins combined.
Lin Qiye looked at the two Yuanqing Pill jade bottles in his arms.
I looked at the mountain again.
He made a decision.
Let's go back to the arena first.
Luo Sheng and her child couldn't wait.
As for what's in that mountain, he can explore it after he's settled everything.
He turned and strode toward his left—towards the arena.
But the moment he took his first step...
The hoarse howls behind me suddenly changed tone.
From desolate to sharp.
From dullness to mania.
Lin Qiye suddenly stopped in his tracks.
He sensed something.
The things in that mountain—
It's rushing towards him.
That speed was extremely fast.
Before Lin Qiye could even turn around, the layer of ashes beneath his feet began to tremble violently.
He turned around abruptly.
The mist halfway up the black mountain was being torn apart by something.
A huge black silhouette is emerging from the fog.
That thing was too fast.
As they approached, Lin Qiye could only see a blurry black shadow.
Then--
The dark figure had already arrived.
A giant claw emerged from the mist and slammed down on Lin Qiye's head.
The claws were bigger than his body.
The claws are dark gold, exuding an ancient and bloodthirsty aura.
Lin Qiye's pupils suddenly contracted.
"court death!"
He let out a low roar, and the source energy within his body suddenly erupted.
The black iron spear spun in his palm, meeting the giant claw head-on.
"clang--!"
The spear tip collided with the claw tip, producing a deafening clang of metal against metal.
Sparks flew.
Lin Qiye was so shocked that he was sent flying backward.
I looked up at the dark figure.
The fog dissipated.
The full picture of that thing was finally revealed.
That was a giant beast.
It is entirely black and has the shape of a mountain.
Its head resembles that of a wolf, but is more than a thousand times larger.
His two eyes were dark gold vertical pupils, radiating a bloodthirsty light.
Its four claws were deeply embedded in the ash layer, each as tall as a person.
A row of bone spurs grew on its back, and those bone spurs gleamed with a dark golden luster, like natural runes.
What alarmed Lin Qiye the most was—
It's its scent.
That aura was far more powerful than that of the seven alien races in the Bone Ruins.
"roar--!"
The behemoth roared again.
This time, the roar shook the surrounding layers of ashes so much that they shattered.
Its eyes were fixed on Lin Qiye.
It wasn't just ordinary bestial frenzy.
It is a scrutinizing gaze.
It's like sizing up prey.
It was as if they were sizing up an intruder.
Lin Qiye gripped the spear tightly.
This behemoth was not one he could easily deal with.
Moreover, he was in a hurry to go back and save his child.
