2296 Chapter 2187, Savage Beast Ambush (Third Watch)
When he heard the words “Great Calamity”, a deep fear flashed across his trusted aide’s face. He sighed bitterly, “The end of the epoch, the end of the sacred mountain, who can avoid this calamity?”
The answer might only be found in the rumored eight-star civilization!
At least in the outer regions, there was no place to hide.
Once the epoch was destroyed, every seven-star civilization would be destroyed in an instant!
Therefore, all the seven-star civilizations were trying their best to send people into the eight-star civilization.
This was because some forces in the eight-star civilization had once promised that once the people they sent were satisfied, they would be able to use all-encompassing divine arts to pull the entire civilization into the eight-star civilization and avoid the calamity.
Whether it was the palace of Light, the Eternal Night Imperial Kingdom, or the other seven great civilizations, they had been sparing no effort to send in talented people for many years.
There were only eighty years left until the destruction of the sacred mountain!
This batch of emissaries of light was the last batch of chosen ones that the palace of light could nurture.
The Palace of light placed their hopes on them, hoping to nurture them as much as possible to the satisfaction of the forces in the eight-star civilization.
Hence, under the orders of the Great Palace master, they had specially increased the level of danger in order to maximize their potential.
Vice Palace Master Lu looked at the misty forest and muttered, “I hope they have gained something.”
Misty Forest.
As soon as they entered, the emissaries of light tacitly separated and searched for their prey alone.
Su Yu raised his head and looked at the sky. He released the Eye of heaven and looked down from above.
Under such a perspective, it was ten times larger than normal. With a sweep, he could cover an area of a hundred Li.
He chose a direction and continued searching with the Eye of heaven.
Half a day later.
Su Yu stopped and stood on a pile of bones. There was a hint of surprise on his face.
The area of the dense fog forest was not considered large. In half a day’s time, he should have covered one-tenth of the area.
The strange thing was that during this period of time, he had not even seen a single Savage Beast, let alone hunted one!
Moreover, he had met Kong Qu halfway, and the latter had also not killed a single savage beast.
‘strange, based on the number of prey that was dropped, this shouldn’t be the case.’Su Yu thought to himself.
Roar --
Suddenly, a thunderous roar came from afar.
Su Yu immediately used the eye of heaven to check and found that there was movement in a lake a hundred miles away.
He immediately went forward.
Soon, when he was still ten miles away from the lake, Su Yu slowed down.
He hid behind a huge tree and observed closely through the Eye of heaven.
Ripples rippled in the lake and did not calm down for a long time.
In the middle of the ripples, a long-necked white savage beast was catching food in the lake.
Judging from the spiritual pressure emanating from its body, it should be an Ordinary Dao master level Savage Beast.
At this moment, it was happily catching food as if there was no one else around. It didn’t sense any danger at all.
Su Yu looked around and was ready to capture it.
Who knew that a human figure would be the first to fly out.
He carried the Lightning Domain and launched a sneak attack on the long-necked Savage Beast.
The Savage Beast was greatly alarmed. In its panic, it didn’t even have the time to display its innate talent before it was covered by an endless domain.
After a series of frenzied lightning and Thunder, the Savage Beast let out a miserable cry and fell to the ground with a loud crash, creating a huge wave in the sky.
Zheng Yuan jumped onto the savage beast and said with a delighted expression, “I’ve finally caught one. It’s really not easy!”
It turned out that it wasn’t just Su Yu and Kong Qu. Zheng Yuan hadn’t caught one before as well.
Su Yu’s eyes flashed, and he felt that something was amiss.
The three of them chose a direction. The area they covered in half a day had at least thirty percent of the dense fog forest, but they didn’t manage to get anything!
Where did the savage beasts go?
Why was there one here?
Just as he was thinking, a strange scene suddenly appeared from the Eye of heaven.
In the depths of the lake, a round dark red color appeared, and it kept rising from the bottom of the lake to the surface.
The Eye of Heaven was able to detect it because it was looking down from above.
However, Zheng Yuan didn’t know anything. He was happily putting the savage beast into his storage space.
Splash --
Suddenly, the sound of water exploding!
An incomparably sharp pitch-black spike suddenly shot out from the bottom of the lake and stabbed at Zheng Yuan.
Zheng Yuan was caught off guard. He only had time to release his domain to resist the black spike.
But that Spike was extremely dangerous. It completely ignored his domain and directly attacked Zheng Yuan’s body.
Zheng Yuan was shocked. How could he still care about the savage beast? He turned around and fled.
His body barely brushed past the black spike and fled back to the shore.
Turning his head, he saw a huge savage beast slowly floating out from the bottom of the lake.
It looked like a horse, but it was at least 30,000 feet in size. On its forehead was a huge scarlet eye.
On top of its head was a pitch-black horn.
Just now, Zheng Yuan was nearly killed by this horn.
“A clan head level Savage Beast?”Zheng Yuan’s scalp went numb, and he ran for his life without thinking.
However, how could Zheng Yuan escape from a clan head level Savage Beast?
He had only fled for a few dozen Li when the unicorn horse caught up to him at lightning speed. The sharp horns on his head were still emitting an extremely powerful black light pillar.
Sensing the intense life-and-death crisis, Zheng Yuan crushed the crystal chip with an unwilling expression.
Immediately, a ray of light shot out from the restriction, shielding Zheng Yuan within.
The black light pillar shot onto the light pillar, and it immediately dissipated on its own.
Following which, the ray of light swept Zheng Yuan away from the dense fog forest.
The unicorn horse failed in its chase and returned to the lake. It came before the long-necked Savage Beast and lowered its head to treat its injuries.
But at this moment, a sharp sound of air being torn apart suddenly came.
The Unicorn Horse was alarmed and immediately released a black ray of light from its sharp horn to protect its entire body.
But when it heard the sound, a pitch-black sharp arrow had already pierced through its body.
The immense force sent his hundred thousand feet body flying for hundreds of miles, smashing it into a forest.
In the end, he was pinned to the ground by a small black arrow, struggling violently.
Shua --
A human figure appeared above his head, looking at him thoughtfully. “You Savage Beasts would set up an ambush?”
Su Yu saw Zheng Yuan’s encounter clearly from the side.
That snow-white savage beast was just a prey to lure the messenger of light over. This unicorn horse was hidden in the dark as a trump card, giving the intruder a fatal blow at the critical moment.
A rather thin intelligence would not do such a thing.
The Unicorn Horse neighed. Other than struggling, it did not understand what Su Yu was asking.
Sighing in his heart, Su Yu put the unicorn horse back into his storage space.
However, Su Yu didn’t touch the unconscious snow-white Savage Beast.
Instead, he hid in the dark and quietly observed the savage beast.
Half a day later, it finally woke up.
It first looked around vigilantly. After making sure that there was no one around, it lowered its head and trotted in a certain direction.
Su Yu’s eyes flashed. There was indeed a problem!
He used his invisibility skill and followed quietly.
The snow-white Savage Beast was very cunning. It circled back and forth several times and chose a place to rest, causing others to think that it was just a normal activity.
If there was someone secretly following it, it would quickly give up on following it.
However, Su Yu had always believed in his own judgment. Once he made a judgment, he would definitely persevere to the end.
Just like that, a few days later, after the snow-white Savage Beast confirmed that it wasn’t being followed, it finally headed in a certain direction at high speed.
Not long after, it arrived in front of a huge iceberg filled with caves of various sizes.
This iceberg was a habitat known as the Dark Snow Moon Rabbit, but at this moment, there wasn’t a single dark snow moon rabbit in it. It was as if it had been scared off by someone.
The snow-white Savage Beast walked into the mountain from a relatively large cave. In the depths of the mountain, there were hundreds of savage beasts!
Most of them were at the DAO Master level, and a few of them were at the clan head level.
Su Yu secretly followed them here, and his gaze changed. No wonder there weren’t any savage beasts in the dense fog forest. It turned out that they were all gathered here.
He looked deeper into the mountain and found some people!
They weren’t savage beasts, but creatures of a certain race.
There were around ten people, and they came from all kinds of races.
One of them was a man in a green robe, and his body was covered with all kinds of beast pictures. He held a ball in his hand, and he kept spitting out strange words.
The Savage Beasts looked at the man in a green robe with respect!
After the snow-white Savage Beast entered, it came to the front of the man in a green robe in fear, speaking in Beast language about what had just happened to Xu Shuo.
The man in a green robe understood what the snow-white savage beast was saying through the ball, and he said angrily, “Trash! You actually let go of the person you got! and the Unicorn, why didn’t it come back with you?”
The snow-white Savage Beast roared a few times, as if saying that it didn’t know where the unicorn had gone.
“Betray me? HMPH!”The green-robed man took out an old talisman from his sleeve. There was a drop of blood from the unicorn on it.
He stuck the talisman on his body, and a strange scene appeared.
The Beast diagram on his body started to squirm, as if it had become a living thing. He swallowed the talisman in one gulp.
Su Yu, who was hiding in the dark, felt his storage space tremble slightly.
He looked inside and discovered that the injured unicorn horse had died tragically!
“That green-robed man... is controlling all of the savage beasts here?”Su Yu’s heart trembled.
That was practically all of the savage beasts here. How did he do it?
At this moment, movement came from behind Su Yu.
He continued to hide and silently watch.
He saw people from several races returning with a group of injured savage beasts.
One of the races made Su Yu’s heart tremble. He couldn’t believe his eyes.
There was a woman who looked like a human in there.
She was dressed in a snow-white dress, floating like snow, but her expression was very numb.
She expressionlessly led an injured savage beast into the cave and said, “This Savage Beast encountered the third-ranked emissary of light. Not only did it fail to capture the person, it was almost captured by the other party.”
The green-robed man walked over, but he did not look at the injured Savage Beast. Instead, he looked at the woman with concern and asked, “Yue'er, are you alright?”
The woman named Yue'er’s eyes were cold as she said, “With my cultivation, how many emissaries of light can shake me? Also, my name is Xie Xiaoyue, not Yue'er!”
She was none other than Xie Xiaoyue who had been spared by Su Yu!
Unexpectedly, she became a prisoner of the Palace of Light and was even banished to the hunting ground ten years later.
Su Yu had mixed feelings when he saw her.
He was partly responsible for going from the number one person in the pirate alliance to a prisoner.
