Chapter 973 - The Dragontail Mountain (2/2)

‘There could be more of this in here. I should head north. Better things are lying ahead.’

The first shade of light had smeared the dark sky. Qin Feng wanted to continue forward but suddenly remembered the conversation between the two SS-tiers.

‘I should head to the Dragonspine Valley first.’

Qin Feng turned around and went back the way he came from.

Qin Feng’s consciousness was powerful enough to cover a large area. Oddly, he could not sense any aptitude user along the way. There was no sign of life within sight on this continent now.

Although S-tiers were sparse here, such emptiness was rare. Qin Feng still did not bump into anyone past halfway.

He did not know that Dragonspine Valley was too dangerous for most S-tiers. They would warily exit Bahamut on this day. S-tiers who did not run would only end up being caught and enslaved.

SS-tiers were the only ones qualified to set foot there.

Qin Feng raised his head and realized that the sun was shining unusually bright today. This indicated that something unusual was about to take place.

He took another long stride forward. He was now far from where the Shuttle Whale was parked.

Suddenly, a large crowd entered Qin Feng’s consciousness.

There were at least a few hundred of them. They were all gathering at a towering peak.

Qin Feng quickened his pace.

When he was about a thousand meters away, Qin Feng could distinguish the aptitude users better. There were thirty to forty SS-tiers, while the rest were S-tiers.

Another thing had caught his attention—A peak that towered in the sky.

‘What is this place? Why is there a soaring peak here?’

Qin Feng could not reach the end of the peak through his consciousness. It was clouded by an opaque mist. Nobody dared to climb it at the moment.

Suddenly, Qin Feng recalled the bird’s-eye view of the continent when he was on the aircraft.

From up there, the Bahamut continent looked exactly like a crouching dragon. Qin Feng was especially in awe of its magnificent stout tail.

But once they landed on the continent, gravity seemed to work in a funny way here. Their sense of direction was jeopardized and the three dimensions had gone disarray.

Qin Feng believed this peak could be the tail of the dragon he saw up in the air. That was the only explanation why the peak was this enormous.

Then, 12 pm arrived, the time when the sun was the brightest. A warming force shone down from the peak and dispersed the cloudy mist.

The aptitude users around the peak became spirited.

“It’s almost time!”

An SS-tier shouted. Though the other S-tiers seemed reluctant, they scrambled up the mountain obediently.

Qin Feng did not want to miss the opportunity and followed behind them quietly.

However, the moment he began the climb, dazzling energy befell him and melted away his aura gradually.

Qin Feng’s expression changed.

His dark ability allowed him to conceal his true identity. Nobody would have known that he was just an A4-tier ancient warrior. But the ability had been dispelled by the mountain and that was exposing him.

It would do no harm in other circumstances. But being revealed in front of the SS and S-tiers was definitely not ideal.

Indeed, a lot of people turned to the aberrant presence.

Voodoo Lord and Shao Tai in front of him glanced at Qin Feng at the same time. Their eyeballs almost popped out from their sockets.

“Black Alp Overlord? How’s that possible!?”
