Chapter 1918: Warrior Turning Into A Dragon (1/2)

Li Qiye smiled and said after the army had entered the wildland: “Let’s go, time to broaden your horizon.” He exited Eternal afterward.

“Finally, I’m coming for the treasures and fortunes; all are mine!” Wu Qi laughed heartily and ran out like the wind.

The rest also followed Li Qiye and were much calmer compared to Wu Qi.

First, it was Jin Ge’s army. Now, it was Li Qiye’s group. This emboldened the crowd so many began to enter as well.

The juniors in Li Qiye’s group took a deep breath. The air here gave them a different and unimaginable feeling.

After inhaling, there seemed to be something burning, not in the lung but the soul. Something was cruelly heating their soul, causing a deep-rooted pain to emanate.

All the visitors felt the same way, this ominous pain of the soul.

“What’s going on?” Wu Qi was scared out of his mind: “I feel like someone is ripping out my chest.”

Li Qiye walked on the muddy ground and answered: “It is a wail of lament, cries of anguish bemoaning a fate worse than death from trillions of dead beings, never entering the reincarnation cycle or see the light of day. Even time can’t get rid of them.”

“Wail of lament…” Wu Qi shuddered after hearing this because this was indeed the feeling going on in his mind.

The wildland was both vast and magnificent. However, it was shrouded by dust-storms and fog. The storm wasn’t gray in color but black with a violet shade. Even the mud on the ground carried this peculiar hue, one resembling the color of dried blood.

As one breathed in and sniffed carefully, they would also find a musky sensation with a faint stench.

“There’s a stench of blood.” The princess quickly noticed then took a look at the sky and ground.

“Indeed, a very old one that didn’t go away.” Li Qiye nonchalantly said.

She looked at the general color of this land and had a terrifying thought: “This, this whole plain is stained with blood?”

“Right, blood once stained this entire world.” Li Qiye said while looking at the distance.

“How can that be? This amount of blood would require a ma.s.sive army attacking the wildland in the past.” Wu Qi blurted out.

“Who says it is the blood of an expedition army?” Li Qiye replied: “It is their own blood, the ones from the epoch.”

“Do elaborate.” Wu Fengying said with surprise.

“It’s very simple, just a harvest.”  His eyes became profound: “It was a golden age with prosperity and peace, one worthy of praises. However, at the apex of that epoch, when everyone thought that it was the height of their civilization, in just one night, someone harvested the lives of countless experts, invincible G.o.ds, and all beings. A war broke out that ended with the destruction of the golden age and heralded a stone age. Very few lucky survivors remained. We don’t really know what happened but the survivors began to forget about this whole ordeal.” He sighed after telling this story.

“Who was the reaper, and why?” Wu Qi asked.

“Why?” Li Qiye looked at him and explained: “You’re only seeing one era. When you take a look at an epoch as a whole, you will find that this was an ordinary harvest right on schedule.”
