Chapter 683 The Bridge Connecting Two Lands (2/2)

They’re making a king beast do their dirty work for them!

How did he even come up with this idea!

A bunch of madmen!

Not just Wu He’s jaw dropped, other outsiders and Flaming Horns, including Duo Kang, were stunned as they rubbed their eyes and slapped their heads. They had to make sure they were not hallucinating from fatigue.

Although they knew of Shao Xuan’s plans, they did not expect this!

A stone bridge was slowly forming across the Flaming River!

It could even turn water to stone!

At the same time, they wondered how this heavy king beast could travel across the surface. Even if it could petrify water, the rock layer might not be able to support its weight.

Unless the stone layer had already reached the riverbed, forming a stone bridge cutting the river in half?

That’s not possible! The Flaming River is very deep, how could it be cut off that easily? And the currents did not look like they had been cut off either.

So is the bridge floating then?

But how was it supporting such a large beast?

But how can stone float?

Everything was against logic, driving everyone insane.

This is unbelievable!

They thought the Flaming Horns would lure the king beast away but now it was back and crossing the river. They finally understood why.

These Flaming Horns were cunning!

If the Flaming Horns knew what they thought, they would say it was all the Grand Elder’s idea. They were just following instructions. They were as shocked as everyone else!

At the top of Flaming River Tower, Ao and a group of Flaming horns watched the king stoneworm. However, as Shao Xuan flew further, they faded from view.

Ao held a telescope, watching the Flaming River with the occasional comment. “How?” “How is that possible?” “I can’t believe this.” “So Ah Xuan was planning to do this…”

Everyone scratched their heads, fixing their gaze on Ao as they thought to themselves, ‘Elder Ao, can you describe the situation or something? Or at least pass the telescope around!”

If their former chief was this shocked, then the situation must have exceeded his expectation. Everyone could not wait to run to the river on their own but they must guard this place, especially the castle. They must not let anyone steal from them during this critical time.

Unfortunately, Ao was too distracted and did not realise how everyone felt. He did not intend to share the telescope at all.

The rock forming on both sides of the king stoneworm was at least seven to eight metres. Adding the worm’s own width, the stone bridge was on average at least twenty metres wide.

If they wanted to build this bridge across the river, even if they had technology more advanced than what they had right now, it still would not be an easy task. This bridge did not have any piers. It looked very stable too. The king stoneworm continued to wriggle forward at a constant speed.

Very good! The risk was worth it!

Shao Xuan watched the grey bridge form with excitement. He could not wait to go check its sturdiness.

He let out a long exhale. There was time. He could check after everything was settled.

Shao Xuan had made preparations but everything was going perfectly along the best route.

He had underestimated the king stoneworm.

Although it was a little dumb, its mighty abilities were undeniable.

One fifth…

One third…

Half…

Two thirds…

The miraculous bridge was almost finished.

Everyone stared at the surface of the river, not daring to blink so they would not miss anything important. They were grateful for coming, to be able to witness such a miracle.

A strong gust of wind blew. Waves crashed into the long stone bridge behind the king stoneworm.

Crash!

The waves turned into splashes.

Despite the waves, the stone bridge above the surface of the water did not move, as if proving to the world its sturdiness.
