Chapter 611 (1/2)

The faint heat in the air whisked past their face, and the leaves of that big tree not far away swayed with a rustling sound. In this open and s.p.a.cious area, that rustling sound was especially clear as if this sound were amplified.

Under that big tree was a rock with strange weeds surrounding it.

Long Yi walked forward accompanied by the two Fire Qilins, and Karl also closely followed behind them. They felt very refreshed seeing the wonderful scene in front of them. Long Yi tried to fly in the sky, but once he reached that light blue cloud mist, he realized that he couldn't fly up anymore as if there were a layer of invisible energy. Even after using all his available means, he was helpless.

Nevertheless, after that initial refres.h.i.+ng sensation, everything looked kind of dry and dull. The scenery followed a fixed pattern where they were unable to see any other living creature despite walking for a long time. Other than the everpresent sound of the wind, this place was a quiet world, and this unnatural quiet made people feel fear.

”Long Yi, is this place truly still in Smelting Death Cave? Those people who had returned alive in the past never mentioned the existence of this kind of place.” At this moment, Karl had no time to fear the G.o.d beast Fire Qilin. He quickened his steps to catch up to Long Yi and voiced his concerns.

”No need to worry. The Smelting Death Cave is itself an independent s.p.a.ce formed due to the eruption of energies during the War of G.o.ds and Demons. As for why those people who had returned alive before never mentioned the existence of this place, perhaps, no one was able to pa.s.s this variant Fire Qilin,” Long Yi said with a smile.

Karl glanced at the variant Fire Qilin and couldn't help but believe in Long Yi's words. Facing such a powerful variant beast, who among the Sea Race could pa.s.s its territory? Only someone on the level of this mystical human being could pa.s.s through its territory without any injuries. Moreover, Long Yi had had sufficient resources to easily subdue this variant Fire Qilin.

After thinking so, Karl relaxed.

Long Yi leisurely walked forward while sizing up their surroundings. Suddenly, a hint of seriousness flashed through his eyes as his beast-like intuition told him that something hidden was staring at them.

Karl, who was walking behind, suddenly staggered. When he turned around to look at what had struck him, he saw a white thing flickering with an indistinct light appear behind the rock.

”Long Yi, did you see that?” Karl called out to Long Yi.

But, just after Karl had finished speaking, he sensed a burst of cold wind blowing over and shuddered. His heart quivered, but he still immediately stepped sideways, and Miluo Divine Bow instantly appeared in his hands. A green Miluo divine arrow changed into a green beam as it shot behind him. The s.p.a.ce twisted behind this green light.

A sharp hissing sound resounded, and pain blossomed on his shoulder. Karl knew that his Miluo divine arrow had hit his target, but at the same time, he had also been injured.

Nevertheless, Karl didn't have time to sigh in relief at successfully harming his enemy. Another wave of attacks already approached his neck. Karl wanted to dodge, but he was helpless. The pain radiating from his shoulder had spread through his body and paralyzed him. Fortunately, at this critical moment, the attack that had nearly come into contact with his neck suddenly disappeared, and gentle energy enveloped his body, making that paralyzed feeling disappear.

After he had been saved by Long Yi, he looked back and saw a pitch-black monster with a pair of sharp horns nailed securely on the ground by his Miluo divine arrow. There was a pile of smoking ashes beside that monster.

Karl smiled gratefully at Long Yi. Strangely, at that critical juncture, his heart had not despaired. For an unknown reason, he had known that Long Yi would save him. One should know that, if a person had this kind of feeling toward another person, he already had a kind of blind trust and confidence in that person and, moreover, wors.h.i.+pped him.

There had been two monsters, one had been shot to death by Karl, and the other had been instantly burnt to ashes by the variant Fire Qilin.

Long Yi squatted down and examined the dead beast. Removing the arrow and returning it to Karl, he said, ”These are dark-attributed variant beasts. Their attacks are highly toxic, and they are good at concealing themselves, but their offense, in itself, is not strong at all.”

At this moment, Long Yi had already removed the poison within Karl's body. Thus, other than a somewhat numb feeling, there were no big obstructions in his battle ability. He then pointed at the white thing he had seen just a moment ago and said, ”Long Yi, you should see what this thing is.”

Long Yi concentrated on that white thing on the ground that had a vague radiance circulating within it. Then, he scanned it with his spirit power while closing his eyes. Immediately after that, that peeping feeling intensified.

As a matter of fact, with the spirit power of Long Yi, he had already noticed the existence of this thing from the very beginning. With the sudden appearance of such a pure energy fluctuation, coupled with the feeling of being spied upon, Long Yi had thought to turn around back then, but he hadn't stopped and rather continued to advance forward, wanting to test whether that feeling would disappear. However, beyond his imagination, Karl had also coincidentally noticed it; moreover, two dark-attributed variant beasts had attacked the Prince.

At this moment, Long Yi decided to think no more on this conundrum. He used telepathy to instruct his Fire Qilin and the variant Fire Qilin to be alert. On the other hand, he waved his hand and blew away that rock. The white thing below gradually revealed its true colors. It was unexpectedly an over three-meter tall humanoid skeleton, and a faint radiance circulated from its head to feet. It looked scared.
