The entire space was dark and dead, and the gray mist surging at the far edge and in the sky was depressing.
Mao Mao followed Bai Yang closely, holding the Sky Breaking Sword in his hand, and suddenly said: "Master, look over there!"
Everyone was attracted by her voice, looked in the direction she pointed, and suddenly took a breath of air.
Thousands of meters in front of them, there was a dry river, tens of thousands of meters wide and hundreds of meters deep, like a canyon. The river bed was dark and cracked, and the cracks were like scars on the earth.
On the dry river bed, countless white bones lay scattered, all of which were the skeletons of aquatic creatures.
Those skeletons, some of which are tens of meters long, and some of which are several meters long, are gray in color, half-hidden in the river bed, and are a mess that makes people's hair stand on end.
Among the countless huge skeletons, one skeleton is particularly eye-catching.
It looked like the skeleton of a giant python, winding at least a kilometer long, with a single bone several meters thick. The skeleton was relatively complete, which was shocking.
"That's the skeleton of a dragon. Oh my God, there was actually a living dragon in this place?" Hu Tu exclaimed.
The skeleton was so huge, its bare head was as big as a small mountain, its ferocious teeth were more than ten meters long, and there was a fifty-meter-long pitch-black angle in the center of its head, pointing straight into the sky like a divine spear.
The desolate and desolate atmosphere makes people subconsciously hold their breath.
"Jiaolong, even the weakest one, has a combat power comparable to that of a great master. Once he goes crazy, he can overturn rivers and seas and destroy a city with ease," Gu Qifeng said solemnly.
"Afraid of Mao Yao, they are already dead, just skeletons. Let's go over and take a look," Bai Yang said through gritted teeth.
He has heard of dragons countless times, but has never actually seen one. Although the thing in the distance is just a skeleton, he still wants to see it. He heard that this powerful creature is full of treasures, and its bones should be worth its weight in gold.
Got the money?
"Master, we have used a thermal imaging camera to observe the surroundings, and we have not found any signs of life. There are really no living things in this space so far," Huzi said from the side at this time.
Nodding, Bai Yang ordered: "Leave fifty people to guard the helicopter and be ready to respond at any time. The others will come with me to take a look and explore this weird place!"
Bai Yang is the boss, and no one can refute what he says. As for Yu Feifeng and the others, refutation is invalid. If you want to follow, you can follow, and if you don’t follow, you will be pulled down...
The group of people walked towards the dry river bed. The ground along the way was severely desertified. Many times, half of the sole of the foot would sink into the ground when they stepped on it.
There are a lot of plants, but they are all withered and will turn into pieces with a slight bang. In many cases, a louder movement can cause them to shatter, making everything look extremely fragile.
They came to the river bed and observed the skeleton up close. They were even more shocked. The skeleton was crystal clear like gold and jade, and the surface was covered with magical and complex textures. Creatures like dragons are inherently mysterious and powerful, which can be seen from the skeleton.
Some clues.
"I can't imagine how terrifying and powerful a thousand-meter-long behemoth would be if it were alive! I almost peed my pants when I saw that giant python in the hot and cold springs that day," Huzi said with a trembling voice.
Looking around, Bai Yang picked up a stone on the ground and threw it towards the huge skeleton.
boom……
The stone hitting the skeleton made a muffled sound, which was carried far through the silent space.
But then, the huge skeleton made a clicking sound, and cracks appeared on the surface of the complete skeleton. Finally, the entire skeleton turned into pieces with a bang and fell to the river bed. The ground trembled and endless smoke and dust were splashed.
"I didn't expect this skeleton to be so fragile. Even the angle on the head was shattered." Hu Tu waved a gust of wind to blow away the smoke and dust with his hand, and looked at the pile of debris on the river bed in shock.
"It doesn't make sense. The trees, plants, and bones here shouldn't be so fragile even after a long time. But this is the fact..." Yu Feifeng frowned in confusion.
Not to mention other things, just the huge skeleton, no matter what, it is the skeleton of a dragon. Even after tens of thousands of years, it is comparable to refined iron, right? But why is it as fragile as a rotten tree?
No one knows the reason, and they are curious but can't get the answer.
After looking at the texture of the river bed soil, Bai Yang pointed to the upstream direction and said: "Let's go up along the shore. The mountains over there are undulating and there are buildings. Let's go and take a look."
"Master, this place is unsettling. Let's leave." Mao Mao persuaded. This space is too evil and completely different from the inheritance place mentioned by Jianlin.
"Let's see, there is no danger for the moment. If something goes wrong, we will leave as soon as possible," Bai Yang said, squeezing the kitten's palm.
Huzi led a hundred heavily armed mountain men wearing titanium alloy armor and scattered around to clear the way for Bai Yang and the others.
The fact is that there is really no living creature in this space, everything is extremely fragile, and I did not encounter any danger all the way up the river.
They saw many things on the way.
There are huge trees hundreds of meters high. Their old bark is cracked like dragon scales and can instantly shatter and collapse when touched.
There are animal bones that look extremely hard, but are still extremely fragile and break into pieces when touched. They are like dregs of tofu.
I also saw a human skeleton. There were gold and iron weapons beside the skeleton, but the result was the same. Both the jade-white skeleton and the sharp weapons were extremely fragile and would break if touched!
Soon after, they advanced for more than dozens of kilometers and arrived at the foot of the undulating mountains. There were magnificent buildings on the mountains. However, not only did they not feel the splendor at this time, but they looked dull and lifeless.
"While walking along the way, I thought about it. There are only two possibilities for why the objects in this space are so fragile." Standing at the foot of the mountain, Yu Feifeng looked around and said in a deep voice.
Bai Yang had always been at odds with this girl. He curled his lips and said, "You only fart half way? If you want to say something, just say it. If you don't want to say it, just shut up."
Gu Qifeng and Hu Tu looked at each other, and their eye contact was speechless. Master, this is our goddess, is it really okay for you to talk like this?
"Hmph, the first possibility for such a situation is that this space was created by man, and everything in it needs the support of external energy to operate. The Iron Sword Sect has been destroyed for so many years, and no one has taken care of the space.
Everything is in essence. The second possibility is that there is something in this space that has absorbed the essence of everything, making the things here seem to be empty. In essence, they are already decayed." Yu Fei
Feng snorted coldly.
"What I said is not what I said. Come on, let's go up the mountain and see if there are any treasures on it. Even though we're here, we can't go back empty-handed. I'll buy him two bricks too," Bai Yang said, pointing to the road up the mountain.
Brother, you are not a thief, how can you still be a thief?
There is a wide stone staircase leading up the mountain to the buildings on the top of the mountain.
Bai Yang used his mind to observe carefully. There were some vague mysterious traces inside the stone steps. He judged that they should be formations. He concluded that this road was actually very dangerous. But for some unknown reason, all the formations had been destroyed.
Invalid.
I feel weird, what the hell happened?
The road up the mountain is very long, it can be called the mountain road with eighteen bends. In the surrounding mountains, big trees that cover the sky and the sun grow, but they are all dead. The corpses of poisonous insects and beasts are scattered in the forest, decaying and fragile.
If those plants and animals were alive, they would be amazing. The big trees are thousands of meters high. When their branches are luxuriant, they must be like canopies covering the sky. There are many skeletons of beasts that are tens of meters, hundreds of meters or even thousands of meters tall. There are many living animals.
It is a terrifying existence that slaughters cities and destroys mountains!
When they came to the buildings on the mountain, they walked around and spent a few hours looking around. The buildings were relatively complete, but most of them were empty. Even if there were man-made items, whether they were wood or gold or iron, they were all in decay.
, it breaks when touched.
This is just a crappy world, Bai Yang complained speechlessly in his heart.
Where is the inheritance promised? There is nothing, there is nothing. Although the sword I picked up looks sharp and sharp with cold light, it turns into pieces when touched. There is no danger as promised. The building complex was once full of
I tried various formations, but they all failed and didn't work.
"Walking in that direction, I felt a glimmer of life!"
Shan Qiulin, who had been silent since arriving in this space, suddenly spoke, pointing the piece of wood in his hand in the direction behind the building complex.
"Old Dan, are you sure? By the way, aren't you blind?" Bai Yang was quite curious.
"I'm afraid the answer to why this space is like this is over there. Moreover, what I learned in the Sword Tomb was just an idea, but it started to gradually improve after I came here." Shan Qiulin said calmly, without saying anything.
Bai Yang had a verbal spat.
"Mysterious, tell me what you have figured out, hurry up, I want to see what else you come up with." Bai Yang curled his lips.
They spent more than an hour twisting and turning through the building complex and arrived at the rear.
There is no road behind, there is a cliff, and thousands of meters further away is the edge of space, with gray mist surging.
"Over there", standing on the edge of the cliff, Shan Qiulin said to the left.
He couldn't see with his eyes, and he didn't know how to tell the direction.
"Why aren't you talking?" Shan Qiulin asked in confusion after pointing in the direction and finding no one said anything.
Bai Yang swallowed his saliva and said with a troubled face: "Old Dan, actually when we got here, we probably discovered the destination you mentioned, but you couldn't see it."
"What did you see?" Shan Qiulin asked speechlessly, you are all bullying me for being blind, right?
"A tree, a very big tree, at least three thousand meters high. The branches have almost reached the highest point of this space, but they are still dead. On top, there is a dry old vine twining around, like a dragon.
Just as vigorous, Lao Dan, can you imagine that an old vine actually has skin like dragon scales on its surface? But this old vine has also withered and is probably as fragile as other things, but that's not the key..." Bai Yang was stunned.
said.
"Can you explain the key points at once?" Shan Qiulin was speechless...
