Forty Millenniums of Cultivation
Chapter 607: Weird Temples
Unlike Li Yao's imagination, the “dark” continent is not dark, but rather daylight is particularly dazzling.
The sky here is particularly clear and somewhat untrue, as if you could see the sparkling stars directly through the dome.
Five thousand years ago, this was where the first wave of heaven struck, and almost all the marks of civilization were completely erased.
Looking at it, the cool earth is like a distant alien star, filled with terrain unique to the different worlds, the earth rises from time to time high, and suddenly it depresses deeply, forming a circular mountain, overlapping, pit depressions.
These ring-shaped mountains were struck by giant meteorites, and to this day, many meteorite fragments remain at the deepest point of many thousands of metres deep pits.
For 5,000 years, meteorite craters in the depths of circular mountains have been washed away by constant rainfall, combined with river diversions, creating a circular lake.
Because of the impact of the meteorite debris at the bottom of the lake, the surface of the lake fluttered with seven colors, looking past from the ground, like a giant vesicle protruding out of the ground.
Occasionally, two ring-shaped mountains are very close, and the ridges squeeze together and are as sharp as fangs.
Such a harsh environment makes it difficult for human civilization to take root, but it has become paradise for demonic beasts and demonized plants.
Numerous colorful plants grew out of the Great Lakes at the bottom of the meteorite pit, dotted a ring mountain with blossom clusters. Thousands of demonic beasts roared in the devilish mountain forest. When Li Yao passed several ring mountains, he even encountered a massive group of flying demons.
On one occasion, Li Yao was still in the middle of the mountain forest, and found some similar human beings.
They are all about two meters tall and have a rocky gray white skin with a red moss that can change their shine and shape.
At first glance, just like the Giant Spirit Warriors, it's only a small size.
They are all wearing the simplest skins of beasts, carrying the bone blades created by the skeletons of demonic beasts, communicating with each other, like short syllables of human language and like the low roar of beasts.
They do not seem to know how to cultivate true qi, yet they are infinitely powerful, raw bloodthirsty, brutally belligerent, walking in the mountain forest like flying, can tear demonic beasts with their hands hard, then eat them alive and peel them, and drink animal blood.
Li Yao hid in the dark and observed these savages for a long time and came to a conclusion.
Five thousand years ago, after the first wave of robbery, the ancestors of these peoples were too small to carry on the sparks of human civilization because of their small numbers and harsh environments.
In the dark continent, generations after generations, their civilizations continue to deteriorate, eventually becoming wildlings who drink their blood.
Civilization disappeared, yet the inheritance of the Giant Spirit Warriors came before them in various ways and became their only dependence against the harsh environment.
Nowadays, these wildlings are less able to speak the language of humans and communicate with each other with simple, short shouts, but they also have bloody mosses like the Giant Spirit Warriors, which change shape and color and can also communicate.
Perhaps if these wildlings continue to live on the dark continent for thousands of years, they will completely lose their ability to speak at the end and forget their identity as “human beings”.
Perhaps they will stand above the earth and see meteorite mountains everywhere as “divine mountains” of their own race, and the hearts of giant spiritual warriors exhumed in meteorite mountains as the inheritance of the "Divine Nation" and henceforth consider themselves descendants of the “Gods”.
Then, it will be a new generation of giant spirit warriors!
Li Yaoxin sighed and continued to head towards the valley where the Oasis tribe was located.
Li Yao did not dare to fly too high, nor did he dare to improve too fast because he feared that he would meet the people in the Hall of Changsheng along the way.
Before each wind turbulence, always send the Dragon to enter the hidden dive state, monitor the route to ensure that there are no abnormalities before moving forward at full speed.
When he finally arrived near the valley where the Oasis tribe was located, it was noon the following day.
This area is a rare plain in the dark continent, with a few small ringed mountains falling on the desert and an oasis of star dots in the distance, grazing countless fat ears of spiritual beasts.
Li Yao found a narrow valley between the two oval-shaped ring mountains, with a far-sighted view of the Dragon, but hidden traces of artificial buildings.
On the other side of the valley, however, there was smoke on the other side of the valley, and the fire burned in the sky, hiding a fierce cry of killing.
A strong black smoke, such as a giant stone column, stabbed straight into the dome.
Li Yaoyuan was surprised and hurried to remove a gray and white disguised cloth similar to the color of the rock, close to the ground, wielding a black-wing sword, silently circled from the side of a circular mountain.
At the same time, keep the Dragon in hiding, slowly approaching the war zone.
Closer and closer to the valley, you can clearly see that leaning against the mountain wall on the left, is a strangely styled Emerald Temple, built in a rather primitive, wild and evil style.
Around the temple, dozens of rudimentary stone buildings are scattered along with cluttered tents, at first glance a less civilized tribal town.
Here, it should be the so-called Oasis Tribe.
In the town, there are a number of naked upper bodies, only wearing bone armor, bearded men, their lips are extremely thick, their faces rough, their lips, ears and nose beams are wearing a single bone ring, their faces and bodies are painted with blue paint, with a tattoo.
In terms of houses, clothing, and theology, they are much less civilized than the six Iron Plains, but more than Li Yao sees other wildlings in the Dark Continent, but they are even more powerful.
They, about the inhabitants of the Oasis tribe.
In addition to them, Li Yao saw a number of people wearing good armor, steering true air tanks, and flying the battle flags of the Sun, the Feathersnake, and the Axe.
They were probably the first implementers of the Oasis Project.
At this moment, both the gas refiners of Iron Plains Six and the savage fighters of the Oasis tribe are all screaming and rushing towards the other side of the valley.
“These bandits from the stars want to destroy our towns, kill our wives and children, and seize our homes! ”
“Spell it! Fight them! ”
“Six Iron Plains, with the Oasis Tribes, defend our homes! ”
Li Yaoxin shouted badly, bringing his eyes to the limit, but you can see that on the other side of the valley, a crystalline battleship seemed severely damaged, one fell in the mountains, and a rolling black smoke emerged.
A large number of fixers dressed in crystal armor were in a battle with the Iron Plains, killing them indissolubly.
With the aid of crystal armor, the Fixers are more powerful than the Iron Warriors, yet their numbers are just over a hundred, far less than the savage warriors, and they will not be able to break through the Iron Warriors' defenses for a single time.
“What's the matter, there's been a fight? ”
Li Yaoxin was in a dark rush, manipulating the Dragon and approaching, but he saw a battle flag against the wind among the cultivators opposite him. On the wounded Crystal Battleship, there was also a very familiar battle emblem, and the sun was shining brightly.
That 's--
“Battle badge of the Grand Horn Armorers! ”
Li Yao's eyes were silly, and 10,000 doubts arose in his heart.
“Why did the Grand Horn Armor show up on Iron Plains, and how did they find it? ”
“And they are fed up, why should there be a clash with the Iron Originals, and they are fighting so hard, it seems that they want to break through the Iron Originals' defensive line in spite of everything and rush into this Oasis Tribe town! ”
Li Yao's first reaction was to show up immediately to stop the conflict between the two sides.
However, when both sides are caught in the crossfire, how is it possible to listen to him calmly?
Not to mention, Li Yao increasingly felt that this was really weird, as if there was a big conspiracy behind it.
“The Grand Horn Armorers were just a few months ago in the outer realm of the Iron Plains, almost completely eliminated. Even if they recovered their energy so quickly, how could they somehow clash with the Iron Plains? ”
“Why did they show up here and have to attack the towns of the Oasis tribe? ”
“What secrets are hidden in this town? ”
Li Yaoxin moved, simply let the Dragon go around the circle, while most of the gas refiners and savage warriors rushed to the front, the rear emptiness, diving into the Oasis tribe.
Almost all the buildings in the towns of the Oasis tribe were quadruple airy stone houses. Li Yao swept over and could not see anything unusual.
Only the temple built by the mountain reveals a chilling and chilling atmosphere.
The huge stone columns that support the temple are engraved with the pattern of a group of demonic dancing, light and land departure.
In front of the temple, there are also four huge statues, four blue-faced fangs and a half-human monster.
Of the original tribes, worshipping the ghost gods is a very normal thing, but Li Yao always felt a little weird.
After a half-day of pondering, he found that the temple seemed to be built at a level far beyond the civilization of the Oasis tribe itself.
None of the living demon sculptures, nor the four statues, seemed to be sculpted by the Oasis Man.
The Dragon climbed to the ground and dived silently into the temple.
The inside of the temple was empty and covered with black boulders, but a black stone monument stood in the middle, covered with a huge white cloth, which seemed to have been covered for a long time and was filled with dust.
Li Yao manipulated the Dragon into Baiburi, grasped the pattern on the tablet, but found only a line of dragon flying phoenix:
“On the Avenue of Heaven, billions of gods, let me just ask -- can we live forever? ”
Li Yao's pupil suddenly contracted: “It is indeed the Hall of Everlasting Life! ”
But when I thought about it, it was very unusual.
This temple is a little too shaky. The strange statues outside, this stone tablet engraved with the inscription of the temple of eternal life, are like fear that others will not know, this is the stronghold of an evil organization.
