Chapter 29 (2/2)
A were unable to identify all of theure with a hopeless and hollow yet beautiful face
“Its her!” Su Ming’s pupils shrank as he recognised her, that person in the white dress was the person they had previously encountered in the bazaar, the one who he and Lei Chan had encountered, Bai Ling!
Su Ming silently pondered
As tiradually faded and even the red s most likely returned to their nests to sleep as the blood moon in the sky disappeared
A warinally chill air, even the walls in the fissure started to feel war sounds rumbled in the tunnel as more cracks appeared in the walls of the cave
“So these cracks really were for as he walked out of the crack he hid in Standing in the passage, he could feel the heat waves corounds as he started to immediately sweat
Even the ground he was standing on was starting to rapidly heat up, standing on it he could feel his foot getting warer the heat would reach a temperature he would not be able to survive in
To leave or not to leave!
Su Ming’s face flashed with some uncertainty, suddenly so his heart waver
“Screw it, we already deceived her in the bazaar and since I soed to run into her, if i were to leave her,was still a child with a pure heart after all Taking a deep breath of this hot air, he ran back towards the source of the heat
“If I can save you then I will! If i can’t then… at least i won’t have any regrets” Su Ming ran forward decisively, clutching the axe in his hand tightly As he approached the end of the tunnel he could feel the heat rise steeply
Fortunately, this distance was fairly short Not too long after, Su Mingthe heat froe of the tunnel as he peeked into the cavern
With this once glance, his eyes started shi+
In the ancient tribal grounds in the cavern, attached to the large spikes were seven people struggling to get free on the brink of death
These seven people were pierced by seven different spikes on their backs as blood flowed out of their wounds However they were still alive, constantly screa miserably as they felt their life drain away
Those seven people without exception were all h of relief as he did not recognise any of the they were at least all not from the WuShan tribe
But he could clearly see that their flesh and the spikes were slowlyAs they rounds like an overflowing lake
As he witnessed this, he let out a gasp, finally understanding what those spikes were for
“This is a really strange place, perhaps the NightWings’ hibernation cycle and these spikes have soement that these spikes would probably eventually start to forht of the NightWings’ appearance they would then melt back into lava
“Seeing the number of spikes here, probably after they completely melt they should fill the whole basin back up with lava and cover up all traces of this ancient tribal ground……”As Su Ming looked further up, he saw that in the center of the tribe was a red cut out hole in the trunk of a large tree
This tree trunk seesaround inside it Only upon closer inspection did Su Ming realise that those ss
The only difference was that those NightWings inside the tree when exposed, their faced were no longer savage, rather they had a painful, desolate and say expression
They did not continue to hiss, rather they looked like they were silently weeping, there were alsotheir paws and then wiping their eyes, but on thee fingers they bite apart there was not a hint of blood
“Those NightWings, actually drilled themselves into the tree trunk! What are… that are they actually doing……” Su Ming stared at the tree trunk, feeling the heat becoer able to lie on the floor
“Since I can’t find her……forget it……” Su Ming shook his head, he already did what he can so he should start heading back out But, as he was adjusting his body, he suddenly paused
His gaze stopped, looking at the red tree trunk, two faced enise, the other was Bai Ling
Bai Ling’s eyes ide open while her gaze was enant and without a shred of life in the
Su Ming looked at that that face, and then looked at thespikes have already covered up almost half the houses in the tribe
As he looked, he could only see the roofs of those stone houses in the tribe, low
“The NightWings’ appearance had so to do with the heat here, they seem to fear the heat… … That is why only after it turns cold they are able to fly out to find food
After they returned, they all quickly rushed into the tree trunk without a single one of thee didn’t act rashly, rather he stood there first analysing what he knew
“Should be possible to rescue the stared at the tree and also the rising lava level in the basin
After so stood there sweating non-stop, his skins also showing signs of cracking Suddenly his eyes flashed as he released his blood qi, the power of his eleven blood veins surging forth within his body as he dashed ahead
With his extreme speed, he reached the roof of one of the houses in an instant Theas white s quickly lept onceon another house, after a few more leaps he neared the red tree trunk
In the instant he arrived, he could see the face next to Bai Ling suddenly let out a shrill cry as she suddenly withered into bones
Her body absorbed into the tree trunk and soe force drained out her lifeforce in an instant
