#626 - Picking up corpses until my hands are tired
The geniuses of various races successively entered the extraterrestrial ruins.
Jun Wu Xie watched Ji Yinlan, Yan Qingcheng, Mu Yunxi, Lilia, Yan Ruyu, Mu Yuning and others disappear into the passage before taking a step forward.
"Be careful."
The Great Elder patted him on the shoulder and watched him disappear from sight.
Jun Wu Xie only felt as if he was traveling through the dark void. Before long, light appeared before his eyes, and he fell out of it.
The glaring light made his eyes slightly uncomfortable, and he even felt unable to open them.
He shielded his eyes with his hand and gradually adapted after several breaths.
The air here was extremely hot, like being roasted by fire. A burst of heat came from under his feet, making his feet feel scorching.
"What is this place?"
His own physiological reaction startled him.
How powerful was his physical body? Although he was only at the Saint Sect Realm, he was no weaker than most Small Celestial Realm Peak Half-Saints.
With such strength, coupled with his extremely strong resistance to flames, normally speaking, even if he was in an environment with a temperature of a billion degrees, it would be impossible to cause him any harm.
He looked around at the environment. What came into view was a boundless desert, with sand dunes stretching endlessly.
Looking up at the sky, the sun was very red, different from the slightly golden sun outside.
Logically speaking, the temperature of such a sun could not be so terrifying.
At this moment, a shocking sandstorm suddenly appeared at the end of the sky. The strong wind swept through the sky, and the yellow sand was approaching the area where he was.
"I was actually teleported to the desert. I wonder how big this desert is?"
After figuring out the situation, he exerted a little force under his feet and was about to leap into the high sky to look at the edge of this desert.
As a result, this leap only made him jump more than ten meters before quickly falling down.
He was shocked and realized that the environment and rules here were many times stronger than the outside world.
Immediately, he released his blood energy and used dozens of times more power than before to reach the high sky.
He looked at the surrounding desert. His eyesight could only reach a hundred miles.
Immediately, he activated the Primordial True Eyes. Even so, he could only see a range of thousands of miles.
The desert was very large, and thousands of miles away was still far from its edge.
"It seems that all abilities here are far inferior to those in the outside world. This is just a corner of the Upper Realm that has fallen. The order is not complete, otherwise it would probably be even worse."
Jun Wu Xie looked around and could not see the edge of the desert, making it impossible to choose a direction for a while.
At this moment, his pupils shrank slightly, and he saw that there seemed to be many figures running in front of the distant sandstorm.
Because the yellow sand filled the sky and obscured his vision, he had not noticed it before.
He condensed his pupil technique and carefully observed, and found that they were actually all kinds of fierce beasts.
There were ostriches with fiery red wings and bodies like flames, wolf-like beasts, and huge creatures with bone spurs on their backs like cattle, etc.
The number of those creatures was too huge, running wildly from afar, stretching endlessly, and the ends could not be seen on the left and right.
When they ran, they rolled up the yellow sand, and the true energy and blood energy intertwined and collided with each other, forming a terrifying storm!
"It turns out that it is not a natural storm, but a beast tide storm formed by those creatures running!"
Rumble!
It was not until this time that the rumbling sound caused by the simultaneous running of thousands of beasts came slowly from the distant sky, like thunder, and the earth trembled, causing the yellow sand to flow.
"They seem very frightened, like they are running for their lives?"
Jun Wu Xie observed for a moment. What exactly happened in the depths of the desert ahead that made these creatures so panicked?
Not only were countless creatures on the ground fleeing for their lives, but the same was true in the air. Countless birds flapped their wings and fled in panic, as if they had encountered something terrible!
His Primordial True Eyes saw the realms of those creatures. The strongest among them even included Small Celestial Realm fierce beasts and fierce birds.
Even Half-Saints were fleeing in fear?
Seeing that the beast tide was getting closer and closer, Jun Wu Xie fell from the sky and hid behind a sand dune.
He waited calmly without panic.
After a long time, the beast tide swept here.
Thousands of beasts galloped, instantly flattening the sand dune where he was hiding.
He was submerged in the yellow sand, supporting a golden blood energy circle under the yellow sand, allowing wave after wave of beast tide to trample over the thick yellow sand covering him.
It was not until a full quarter of an hour that it finally calmed down.
He rushed out of the yellow sand, and the scene before him had completely changed. All the sand dunes had disappeared. The originally flat desert surface was full of pits.
Here and there, some corpses could still be seen. They were all early Saint Sect fierce beasts. They must have been unlucky and trampled by Half-Saint realm fierce beasts. Their entire bodies were flattened, and the blood stained the yellow sand blood red.
"Am I picking up bargains here?"
Jun Wu Xie was stunned for a moment and directly began to clean up the "battlefield".
It would be a waste to leave these dead fierce beasts here. It would be better to make good use of them.
Their beast cores could be used to inlay rune weapons, and their flesh could be eaten.
He certainly didn't need it, but the generals of the Great Zhou needed it.
The entire Great Zhou, with over ten million Black Armored Army soldiers, needed these resources to help them increase their strength.
As for the beast cores, they could be used to make war weapons in the future.
"Fortunately, I have the Eternal Life Shrine, otherwise I wouldn't be able to take away so many fierce beast corpses…"
He walked along the way picking up corpses until his hands were soft.
Although he could only see a corpse far away, this area was too wide, spanning more than a hundred miles from left to right. Even if there was only one corpse every few miles, there would be dozens of corpses in a row.
Moreover, this route was too long, extending all the way to the end of the desert ahead.
Because the rules of this world were very strong, and the gravity was very terrifying, his speed was far from comparable to the outside world.
When running, his speed was only over two thousand miles per hour, only reaching one times the speed of sound.
This was quite a waste of time.
Picking up corpses all the way naturally greatly reduced his speed.
After a day and a night, by the morning of the second day, he had only traveled two or three thousand miles.
Inside the Eternal Life Shrine, the corpses of fierce beasts were piled up like mountains. He had not counted how many there were. He conservatively estimated that there were tens of thousands of them, all eleventh-order fierce beasts in the Saint Sect Realm. The highest realm was almost close to the Saint Sect Peak.
This was a massive amount of resources!
"Hey, I'm really picking up 'fallen peaches' until my hands are soft. It's hard to imagine what happened that caused millions or even tens of millions of fierce beasts to flee frantically. However, they came from the front, which means that there should be a vast forest in that direction."
By the afternoon, he finally saw the end of the desert.
A lush green distant mountain range came into view, with verdant mountains stretching endlessly.
"Finally seeing vitality…"
Jun Wu Xie was in a good mood. He hated the desert environment very much. It was simply a forbidden zone for life, without any vitality, a dead and silent place.
Ahead, he could see that the corpses of fierce beasts had become denser.
Obviously, they must have been even more panicked at that time than yesterday, which caused such a serious trampling incident.
Moreover, because they were in a hurry to escape, those fierce beasts simply had no intention of controlling their power, which ultimately led to this result.
He walked forward quickly. After only walking dozens of miles, a "dong" sound shocked his body!
This sound suddenly sounded in his ears, like the sound of a heartbeat. At the same time, he felt like his heart was being pinched, almost suffocating!
"There really is something strange in the forest!"
He continued to move forward. The deeper he went, the stronger the feeling became, and the more terrible the impact on his heart.
He tried to retreat, and the impact on his heart weakened accordingly.
"What exactly is in that forest that is making such a sound, forcibly causing people's hearts to resonate with it?"
He circulated his blood energy to protect his heart, while picking up corpses and heading towards the forest.
On the third day, he walked the last few thousand miles and came to the Gobi area on the edge of the desert.
The vast forest was right in front of him, mysterious and ancient.
The sound inside had never stopped for a moment, coming at a constant rhythm, sounding in his ears every two breaths, impacting people's hearts.
Having arrived here, even with the protection of blood energy, his heart felt somewhat uncomfortable.
Following the direction of the sound, he entered the dense forest, which was in a mess due to the beast tide.
The terrain here was infinitely varied, sometimes flat and sometimes steep.
He quietly shuttled through the mountains and forests, picking up corpses and converging his own aura.
The setting sun was slanting to the west, and the fiery red afterglow shone on the mountains and forests, making them red, as if splashed with a layer of blood.
Dong!
Dong!
…
The sound was like a heartbeat, becoming stronger and more powerful.
Because he had not wasted as much time on picking up corpses as he had in the previous few days, by late at night, he had already penetrated thousands of miles into the forest.
Having arrived here, every time the sound rang, it made his heart feel as if it had been pinched hard, giving him a feeling of bursting open.
This feeling made him suffocate, his breathing was not smooth, and even the circulation of his blood had problems!
"What exactly is it that is so terrible?"
The deeper he went, the more shocked he became, and he had to activate the Aegis Shield to defend himself.
As for dark energy, he had tried it, but it had no effect on the resonance caused by this sound.
He felt a very powerful aura, the kind of primordial aura, surging like a tide from the mountains ahead.
Dong!
The sound rang again. This time, he had a very strange feeling in his heart.
At the same time as his heart contracted, the blood in his body faintly felt like it was boiling.
He wanted to release his divine sense to spy, but in the end, he restrained the impulse in his heart.
The mountain range ahead was full of unknowns. He had no idea what terrible existence was there.
If one were to use divine sense to probe, there would be no guarantee of absolute safety.
This was his perception of danger. He had a feeling that his divine sense, which had always been effective in the past, might not be able to remain silent and undetected here.
He held his breath, trying to restrain his own aura as much as possible, and slowly sneaked closer to the mountain range, entering it.
After sneaking for dozens of miles, several mountains that were not very high, but gave a majestic feeling, appeared in sight.
There were a total of six great peaks.
They surrounded in a ring, and on the peaks of those great mountains, stood several terrifying figures.
"Divine Beast Suanni?"
Jun Wuxie's pupils contracted, his gaze falling on the creature that resembled a lion, with fiery red fur all over its body, and flames burning on it. It was ten meters tall and tens of meters long, its two golden-red eyes staring fixedly at the valley formed by the six great mountains.
He observed silently, the Suanni seemed to be not yet an adult.
The adulthood of divine beasts is different from that of the human race. Under normal circumstances, they need a very long process.
Judging from its appearance, it should be a sub-adult.
On the mountain near it, there was a Tyrannosaurus Rex tens of meters tall, the teeth in its mouth flashing with a cold, dark light, the muscles on its body were very developed, and wisps of bloodline runes on its skin emitted a faint light, the aura of wildness rolling.
The second fierce beast with divine beast bloodline!
Jun Wuxie was too shocked in his heart. What exactly was this place, that two divine beasts gathered here?
He looked at the third great mountain, and the pupils of his Origin Beginning True Eyes contracted slightly.
"Flying Dragon?"
That dragon resembled a lizard with wings, its whole body covered with dark red scales, its eyes flashing with fierce dark light, and at the position where the underside of its neck connected to its torso, there were fiery red runes flashing, contracting and expanding, with firelight透射 coming out from within.
The third divine beast!
Jun Wuxie only felt a headache, but he also inexplicably became excited in his heart.
What exactly could make these divine beasts gather here?
It seemed that there must be an extraordinary treasure in that valley, very likely related to the thing that made the thumping sound!
Because, he could now be completely sure that the source of the sound was that valley!
"Archaic Golden Eagle?"
On the fourth mountain, there stood a golden eagle with a body length of one hundred meters, its whole body flowing with golden light, the feathers on its body like gold and iron casting, flashing with a cold metallic luster, its claws deeply embedded in the hard bluestone, a pair of sharp golden eyes staring at the valley.
At the top of the fifth great mountain, there stood an ape covered in demonic energy, one hundred meters tall, its muscles bulging, strong and powerful, with a palpitating aura of violence on its body.
Archaic God-Devil Ape!
This kind of God-Devil Ape has an extremely strong bloodline level, also equivalent to a divine beast bloodline!
On the last great mountain, there stood a beautiful woman in a blue dress, with light purple feather flowers缀 on her dress, the clothing was very beautiful.
Her facial features were exquisite and flawless, like an art piece carved from beautiful jade, her eyes were deep and tranquil, and although she stood there without saying a word, she also gave people a noble temperament.
Jun Wuxie narrowed his eyes slightly. Here, among the six creatures, the other five were divine beasts, but one was human?
That's not right, didn't the elders say that the natives lived inside the Holy Interruption Mountain, and would only come out to hunt when they sensed that someone had come to this world to obtain resources?
Is that woman a native?
Judging from her temperament, she should come from a very wealthy force, otherwise, she would not be able to cultivate that kind of noble temperament from the bone.
He carefully observed with the Origin Beginning True Eyes, and his face gradually showed a look of astonishment.
"Demon Race Bloodline Runes?"
In that woman's body, there were actually demon race bloodline runes, and they were very pure bloodlines.
He was about to continue observing when he suddenly felt a warning sign and instantly closed the Origin Beginning True Eyes and hid himself.
Almost at the same time, the woman in the cyan feather dress tilted her head slightly, looking towards the area where Jun Wuxie was, her beautiful eyebrows lightly furrowed, and a look of contemplation appeared in her deep beautiful eyes. In the end, it seemed that she did not find anything, so she turned her head back.
"Who is that woman? Could she really be a descendant of the demon race?"
Jun Wuxie thought to himself, the true demon race bloodline had long been断绝, only some descendants of the demon race with impure bloodlines existed in the world, such as Yan Qingcheng, her ancestors should be descendants of the combination of the human race and the demon race.
But the woman in the cyan feather dress had pure demon race blood flowing in her body!
Could it be that the natives here also include the demon race?
If this is the case, it would make sense. After all, the natives come from the upper realm, not the world he is in. It is not surprising that there is a demon race, perhaps the demon race is still very prosperous in the upper realm.
But if this is the case, doesn't it mean that the natives have already walked out of the Holy Interruption Mountain?
"No…"
Jun Wuxie always felt that something was not right, that woman should not be a native.
If she is not a native, where does she come from and how could she appear in this extraterrestrial relic?
Also, what exactly is in the valley formed by those six mountains?
He held his breath, carefully observing the environment in front of him, and saw a canyon.
The sky above the canyon was covered by the connected rocks between the mountains. The canyon was very narrow, only a few meters wide, and seemed to be the road leading to the valley.
"No, I have to sneak in and see what's going on. The thing that makes the five divine beasts plus the mysterious demon race woman care about must be a treasure!"
He made a decision in his heart, using the cover of the mountains and forests, he quietly sneaked in, the speed was very slow, and every step was careful.
