The Return of Cambrian Period

Others also hurriedly picked up their companions in the snow.

Cong Xia and the others resisted all day without any injuries, and Abu pulled them out of the snow one by one.

After "rescuing" for a long time, all the people and animals were finally dug out from the snow. Fortunately, although some people were injured, they were not seriously injured.

Knowing that he was in trouble, Dorje buried his head in the snow and made a sound of grievance.

Cong Xia wiped off his sweat: "But, what was it just now? Did you see anything on the top of the mountain?"

Everyone shook their heads.

Dorji may not have seen it, it's just that their sharper nerves than humans allow them to capture something.

Zhuang Yao said: "I got information from Abu's head, it told me that something was dangerous just now."

Cong Xia smiled wryly: "That sense of oppression of energy is no less than that of a third-order natural force evolutionary person, and it is indeed dangerous."

Mr. Sun murmured, "What could it be?"

Cheng Tianbi looked at the white mountaintop: "Go up and have a look."

After the life-threatening run just now, everyone was terrified. If there were any creatures on the mountain, wouldn't this be giving them a blow?It worked.

This time they went up the mountain, they were much more cautious and kept paying attention to the surrounding environment. The road was still the same as when they came, and it was chillingly quiet, as if everything that happened just now was just their hallucination.

When they climbed to the top of the mountain, the sun had already set and the surroundings were pitch black. They camped in place and lit a fire, waiting for dawn.

Cong Xia drank hot water, looked at the dancing flames with unfocused eyes, worried.

Cheng Tianbi handed him a baked barley cake: "What do you want? Eat something."

Cong Xia said in a deep voice: "I was thinking about the energy I felt today. It didn't seem to be far away from us. It suddenly appeared and then disappeared after the avalanche. What is so strange?"

Tang Yanqiu said: "It didn't enter my radar range, so it should be some distance away from us."

Zhuang Yao said: "If Dorji hadn't triggered an avalanche, what would it have done..."

Cong Xia frowned and said, "What can a single creature do in front of a team as big as ours?"

Zhuang Yao slowly spit out two words: "Sneak attack."

Everyone's heart tightened.

In the next moment, without warning, the palpitating energy fluctuation struck again!Cong Xia jumped up suddenly and shouted: "Something sneaked up!"

Then, there was a muffled cry from the team.

A golden light flashed over their heads, Rong Lan illuminated the surroundings like daylight, and he shouted: "What!"

Tang Yanqiu's highly evolved eyesight made him the first to see a black dot flashing by, and he shouted: "There!" The black dot was only the size of a fist, and it shuttled through the crowd at an extremely fast speed. Raising the arrow, the arrow chased the black spot, but couldn't aim.With his dynamic vision, if he still can't see the trajectory of the black dot clearly, it proves that the speed of this thing is faster than his rate of fire, and he is not sure.

Shen Changze ran over, but he could only see a black shadow with a long tail, which was the afterimage left by a creature that was too fast in the air, so he simply swept out with a flame.

The black spot is fast, Rong Lan is faster than it, a golden light shoots towards the black spot with swift force, and the sharp laser cuts through its body fiercely.The black dot fell into the snow with a "boom", and suddenly, the snow was arched into a winding bulge, and it quickly drilled into the distance.

Rong Lan took out a dark object from the snow pit.It was the half of a... indescribable creature.

"There are people injured!"

Unexpectedly, as many as six people were injured in the team, a plain wolf died from being pierced through the neck, and one person's energy armor was shattered, saving his life.

Cong Xia and Dai Kuilin rushed to heal them.

Rong Lan threw that half of his body into a clean pot, and everyone gathered around him. He said, "Get out of the way, let Mr. Sun come."

It was a palm-sized creature. It looked a bit like a mouse, but it had black wings, sharp fangs on its mouth, and claws that looked like human hands. Its ears were bigger than its head. What was it?It's completely different.It was split in half by Rong Lan, but the other half ran away, so is this half still alive?

Chu Xingzhou stretched out his hand and said, "Don't move, I'll come." He reached out his hand to touch the thing, and it didn't move. He was about to open its eyes when the thing suddenly opened them and sprang up on the spot. Suddenly, his head doubled in size, he opened his mouth bigger than a human, and bit Mr. Sun's neck!The speed is so fast that people are caught off guard.

In desperation, Chu Xingzhou stretched out his hand and sucked it, and a black vortex suddenly appeared in his palm, sucking it into the black hole forcefully.

The shock just settled.Mr. Sun didn't care about his own safety, so he said anxiously: "Xingzhou, can you still get it out?"

Chu Xingzhou said: "No, entering the black hole means disappearing completely." After speaking, he took a deep breath. It seems that this move consumes a lot of energy, no wonder he hasn't used it much before.

Mr. Sun was very disappointed.

Li Dao'an said in a deep voice, "What is that thing? It looks like a mouse and a bird. It survives being split in half, and its head can grow bigger in an instant."

Everyone has the same question.

Cong Xia gritted his teeth and said, "Is this the forbidden creature?" If all the creatures in the forbidden zone can change their body size at will and their speed is so fast, it's no wonder that Rong Lan and Chu Xingzhou didn't see anything. Hide in the ground, where to find it.

Zhuang Yao sighed: "We really had preconceived ideas. We thought that the more powerful creatures must be huge, because the outside world, including Golmud, follow this rule, but it is different here. This little creature that can easily attack many people Things are not inferior to those behemoths."

Tang Tingzhi said: "Could this be a new species? In the early stage of the first Cambrian period, existing organisms evolved, and new species began to be born in the middle period. In the later period, the original species and the new species were selected for the survival of the fittest. After millions of years of evolution, The biosphere is gradually forming a steady state. Since this disaster is compared to the Second Cambrian, it is possible that now is the time for the emergence of new species."

Mr. Sun pondered for a while, then shook his head: "Whether it is a new species or not depends on how we define it. I don't think it can be regarded as a new species, because many shadows of the original species on the earth can be found in it, and it can also be said to be a new species." Species, after all, there was no such weird thing on the earth."

Zhuang Yao nodded and said: "Mr. Sun is right. In addition, new species should have a necessary characteristic, that is, ethnicity. If there are two or more of these little monsters, then it is not an accident, but a new earth." New organisms brewed by the environment, then they can be defined as new species."

Cheng Tianbi said: "What if it's not?"

Zhuang Yao said in a deep voice: "That will be even more troublesome, which means that we may encounter more weird monsters."

Cong Xia smiled wryly, "I've got goosebumps."

Mr. Sun said: "I don't know what its purpose is to attack us? No matter what it is, this thing is intelligent."

Tang Tingzhi said: "That's right, the direction in which its head was lying just now was opposite to that of Mr. Sun. If it was to kill a person quickly, it should not sneak up on Mr. Sun, but should be the nearest me or Zhuang Yao. It sneaked up on Sun Mister’s reason may be that he heard Mingzhu say ‘Let Mr. Sun take a look’, so he judged that Mr. Sun is an important person in the team.”

Everyone was shocked, that thing just now was aimed at Mr. Sun?

Mr. Sun frowned and said, "Not only does this thing have a weird appearance, but it can also understand human speech and has the ability to make judgments. What kind of thing is this? It's really scary."

The appearance of this creature completely broke the calm appearance. Now they finally believe that the restricted area is full of dangers, which is far more terrifying than Golmud.Looking at the dark snow-capped mountains in the distance, fear invaded like a tide again.

There were no other accidents that night, and their hearts were tense, and they ushered in the dawn amidst anxiety and insomnia.

When packing, they unloaded some excess load and went into battle lightly. They will arrive at their destination this morning, and many things are no longer needed, especially when they come into close contact with creatures in the restricted area.

After turning over two small hills, a majestic rift valley appeared in their line of sight, like a giant ax falling from the sky, creating a shocking crack in the ground. The rift valley stretched across the two mountains. In between, you can't see the beginning and the end, so you don't need to make more guesses, and you know that the Great Rift Valley is the center of the earthquake source.Chu Xingzhou said: "The last time I came to test, the reaction of the puppet jade came from the Great Rift Valley."

Zhuang Yao looked at Cheng Tianbi: "Do you have any impression of this place?"

Cheng Tianbi shook his head: "When I came, there was no snow on the mountain, and the rift valley was formed after the earthquake."

Mr. Sun sighed: "Yes, this place has changed beyond recognition."

When they came to the Great Rift Valley and stood on the edge and looked down, everyone couldn't help but be shocked by the scene in front of them.

The Great Rift Valley is at least 400 meters deep and more than 60 meters wide, and its length is endless at a glance.There are vegetation and snow under the rift valley, and there is a river passing through it. It should be the Dongtai Jinel River that has been diverted. The river does not look wide, but it does not freeze at this low temperature, which is a miracle.

Tang Tingzhi said: "This rift is quite steep, everyone should be careful when going down."

The slope of the Great Rift Valley is about eighty degrees, almost vertical, and the steep rock walls look extremely dangerous.

When they went down, they all showed their abilities.Of course, those who can fly don’t have to worry about it. Some people carry small and light ones with them. The most difficult ones are those huge mutated animals. Wu You, Li Dao’ai and Dacqueline alternately built ice, soil and plants on the cliff. pedals for their passage.

Cats such as Abu and Huo Bai were not afraid of this slope at all, and jumped down deftly, which frightened Cong Xia and the others. After all, Abu seemed to be jumping off a cliff vertically, and they had to hold on firmly. Hold it by its fur so that it will not be thrown off.

After reaching the bottom of the valley one after another, looking up at the place where they just came down, not only makes people doubt, did they really jump from such a high place?

Liu Fengyu "tsk tsk" twice: "It's down, I don't know how to get up."

Cong Xia laughed and said, "I'm not sure if I'll survive or not, why think so much?"

Liu Fengyu put his arms around his shoulders: "Yo, you can scare people now, you've become more courageous."

Cong Xia said helplessly, "I'm telling the truth."

Liu Fengyu sighed: "Yes, what you said makes sense."

Mr. Sun suddenly exclaimed: "What's going on!" He was frowning tightly and was using an instrument to detect the fluctuation of the puppet jade.

Zhuang Yao said: "Mr. Sun, what's the matter?"

"The fluctuation of the puppet jade has disappeared." Chu Xingzhou said, "The last time I came, I detected it near here. Even if there is an error, the difference will not be too much. Now the fluctuation has disappeared."

Zhuang Yao said in a deep voice: "This situation is worse than we imagined. It seems that the puppet jade is not in a certain place, but in a certain thing."

Everyone's expressions changed.

It turns out that there is a worse situation than the puppet jade deep in the ground, that is, the puppet jade can move. How can they find a small piece of jade that can move in such a big snow mountain?What's more, this piece of jade might be on the body of the monster that attacked them last night.

"Be prepared for a long-term battle." Mr. Sun sighed: "Everyone, check the food storage and save some food. We won't leave until we find the puppet jade." No.

Mr. Sun asked Rong Lan and Cheng Tianbi, who were the fastest here, to search in two directions of the Great Rift Valley, and then decide which way to go.

They came back soon, Rong Lan took the upper reaches of the Jinel River in Dongtai, and walked straight to return to the snow mountain, while Cheng Tianbi took the lower reaches. He said that at the end of the Great Rift Valley, there was a big cave. The direction speaks for itself.

Walking downstream along the river, Abu leaned towards the river intentionally or unintentionally, walking more and more sideways, and finally he almost moved along the river bank, his round and bright purple eyes kept looking into the river.

Deng Xiao shouted in surprise: "Who said there is no food, there are fish in it."

Huo Bai joked: "How big is the fish? Do you eat it or it eats you."

Deng Xiao shouted: "This river is narrow and shallow, of course it is a small fish, easy to catch."

This diverted river is indeed relatively light and shallow, and the water is crystal clear, and it is true that no big fish can be bred.When they heard that there were fish in the river, everyone was very happy, at least they didn't have to fight hungry.

Cong Xia stroked Abu's head: "Want to eat fish?" Abu had never eaten fish since the battle of Qinghai Lake.

Abu let out a soft "meow", turned his head, and looked at Cong Xia unblinkingly with amethyst-like eyes, full of longing.

Cong Xia smiled and said, "When we rest by the river, I'll let you eat your fill."

Abu flicked his big tail excitedly.

Deng Xiao fell on Cong Xia, imitating Abu's "meow meow" and called: "Brother Cong, I want to eat fish too."

Cong Xia smiled and pushed his head away.

Cheng Tianbi said: "Has Abu grown up again?"

Cong Xia nodded: "It seems to be a little bigger than before, and its current size is growing in comparison with the animals in Golmud."

Liu Fengyu said: "If it grows like this endlessly, one day the transport plane will not be able to hold it."

Zhuang Yao heard the words and said: "If you leave here, you should be able to stop. Abu is already an adult, and I don't want it to grow too big." He glanced into the river, then froze, and said in surprise, "Eh? The river course is not new."

His voice attracted the attention of Mr. Sun and Tang Tingzhi, and they also looked at it one after another: "The river course is really not new!"

Tang Tingzhi was surprised and said: "This is underground, in the desert area, there is such a well-preserved river channel, and it is not an underground river."

Mr. Sun jumped off his mount, squatted by the river to study for a long time, and then said: "The river is very shallow. Although the river originally existed, the water came from the Dongtai Jinel River, which means that the river was dry before. Only then did the water flow resume.”

Zhuang Yao pondered and said: "The dry river channel in the ground...it means that a river passed by here a long time ago, and it flowed to that cave. What is there in the cave? Where does this river eventually flow to?"

With doubts, they quickened their pace, perhaps the answers to many questions could be found in the cave.Excitement and fear intertwined, filling everyone's nerves.

At noon, they reached the cave entrance.The cave was even bigger than they imagined. The highest point was 30 meters, and the width could accommodate three trains in parallel. The Great Rift Valley was cut from here, like a space-time tunnel, which was spectacular and strange.

Mr. Sun touched the rock at the entrance of the cave: "This cave has been formed for at least [-] million years. It is because of its existence that the earthquake will crack the ground here, and it will be seen again..."

Tang Tingzhi murmured: "Such a big cave is buried between mountains and under the ground? Such a strange landform is really rare."

"Everything here is very strange." Zhuang Yao frowned, "The earliest record of the mountain appearance of this generation in Qinghai can be traced back to more than 600 years ago. At least before that, the landform had already been formed. An earthquake, but it has never been revealed, only this time..."

Cong Xia said: "If this is the place where the puppet jade was excavated, it wouldn't be surprising. Anyway, the puppet jade itself is weird enough."

Cheng Tianbi said: "The place where we excavated the puppet jade did not reach this depth."

"How long have you been stationed here? How many puppet jades have you dug up?"

"Two months, before I left, there were four of them, all wrapped in soft metal coats, and the distance distribution of these four is not far away."

"Have you detected anything else?"

"Yes, but at a deeper place, the geological structure here is very hard, and the excavation work is very difficult, so the progress is slow." Mr. Sun pondered: "After digging four mines, there was no earthquake. What did they do to cause the earthquake? Or is it just a coincidence? ?”

This question also has no answer.

Suddenly, Cong Xia felt a strong energy fluctuation in the cave, and he looked into the cave suddenly, but unfortunately, there was nothing within the visual distance, and the depth of the cave was pitch black.He said in a deep voice, "There is something approaching us in the cave."

Everyone became alert.

After a while, a small shadow appeared quickly from the darkness. It was a naked little girl, about seven or eight years old, with obvious plateau red on her face. There was no expression on her immature face. Looking straight at them like a black hole, as if she had no soul, her limbs did not move, but her speed was extremely fast, and she looked like a ghost in the dark.Her sudden appearance pushed the weird atmosphere to a climax.

The girl stopped at the entrance of the cave, only a hundred meters away from them, and everyone saw clearly that there was a pair of transparent mosquito-like wings growing behind her, flapping at high speed.

Cheng Tian said coldly: "Who are you?"

The little girl turned her neck, and her gaze fell to the left side. She stretched out a dirty finger and pointed at Maxim in the white bear state. Said: "I want to eat this, I haven't eaten it."

Maxim's Chinese is not very good, but he still understands such a simple sentence pattern. He growled warningly, pressed his body back, and was ready to attack at any time.

Daiquilin's complexion changed suddenly, wood energy was secretly gathered, and the vegetation under her feet grew at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The little girl walked towards Maxim step by step: "I want to eat."

Zhuang Yao said in a deep voice, "Kill her."

The sentence "Kill her" seemed to anger her, she turned her head suddenly, and opened her mouth towards Zhuang Yao. The original immature head suddenly changed drastically, and quickly transformed into the head of an insect. The insect deformed too badly. Everyone didn't see what it was for a while, but saw two rows of sharp mouthparts between the big mouths, screaming fiercely at Zhuang Yao.

Everyone took a step back in shock.What is this?

She flew up from the ground, and her dry and dirty hair turned into countless centipedes in front of everyone, shooting arrows in two directions, one bunch went straight to Maxim, the other went straight to Zhuang Yao, and even more so. Strangely, after shooting the centipede, the little girl's body expanded in the air and turned into a giant ant with transparent wings, and the shiny black carapace looked extremely hard.

people?mosquito?Centipede?Ant?Everyone couldn't care less about being surprised. One team protected Zhuang Yao, the other team protected Daiquilin and Maxim, and the rest rushed towards the little girl's body.

When dozens of centipedes hit the ground, their bodies swelled a hundred times, and each was as big as a car. Their dark red bodies were full of poison at first glance, and their sharp and huge mouthparts fiercely bit anyone they saw.

After the initial shock, they quickly regained their composure. If these things were regarded as a swarm attack by mutated animals, there was nothing scary about it. The scary thing was that it was all done by one "person".

They cut and burned the big ants and centipedes on the ground, and the black blood stained the ground and rivers under their feet.Those centipedes were easy to deal with, but the power of the big ants was beyond their expectations.

First of all, that ant is extremely fast. Except for natural force evolutionists and speed evolutionists, ordinary people can't keep up with its speed. Third, its carapace is very hard. Tang Yanqiu shot an arrow at its shoulder blade, but only An arrow went in, but was pulled out by a strange human hand protruding from the ant's back. One must know that Tang Yanqiu's arrow could penetrate the steel plate.The excellent protective ability hindered Rong Lan's laser cutting attack. The laser that could split the creature in half at once only just broke through its carapace.

They have never seen such a domineering creature, and the tenacity of vitality is the most tenacious of all the creatures they have seen.

Dacqueline gave birth to plants from the ground, and entangled the big ant's whole body like a rope. This trick really affected its actions. A laser beam flashed, and finally cut off along the weak joints of the carapace. its head.

The moment the big ant's head hit the ground, its body began to split into dozens of small ants. The small ants were obviously much weaker, and some crawled out from the gaps in the plants.

Chu Xingzhou smashed more than half of the little ants flat with a "mountain crushing".

On this side, the centipede also suffered heavy casualties. The centipede and the ants slowly joined together and began to flee quickly.

Naturally, they would not let the monster go easily, and they all chased after it.

No matter how fast it was, it would not be as fast as Rong Lan and Cheng Tianbi. Its body was crushed into several sections again. After landing, its body began to repeat the behavior just now, splitting into countless centipedes, ants, and mosquitoes. This time, its size was as small as It's not as big as a fist, but it's even harder to break.

Everyone is determined to restrain it.Shen Changze flew into the cave and built a wall of fire more than 60 meters long, blocking the way for the monster to escape. Li Daoyi built a circle of earth walls around, and Chu Xingzhou exerted gravity to prevent them from climbing out. The soil circle was moving wildly, but the movements became more and more sluggish.

Looking at the worms trapped in the soil circle, everyone still had lingering fears.

They were terrified, not because this thing was so powerful—it was powerful, but it was far from invincible. They were terrified because the mutation direction, ability, and fighting style of this thing were too subversive to their cognition. I have never seen a single creature that combines the characteristics of so many animals, and can be combined and split. This is very similar to the bugs they encountered in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, but the biggest difference is that it has more than two kinds of creatures.

Mr. Sun whispered: "It's multiple mutations..."

Tang Tingzhi took a deep breath, and a trace of heaviness appeared on his jade-like face: "Multiple mutations...really appeared."

Cong Xia tremblingly said: "Multiple mutations? Is it the product of many different species?"

Zhuang Yao nodded: "The worm in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda is the first secondary mutated creature we have come into contact with. The speed evolution human in Jiujiang County has the characteristics of both a speed evolution human and a worm after being mutated by the worm. Although the secondary mutated creature It is very rare, but it does exist. For example, there is a mutant tiger that is different from the eagle in Fenglan. We used to think that the second mutation was the limit, but we did not expect that the creatures in the restricted area had multiple mutations. At the same time, the fusion is good. The abilities and self-awareness of several creatures have also become difficult to control under the chaotic situation of the fusion of multiple creatures. The thing we encountered last night is the same, maybe it is the product of multiple mutations of mice, bats and some kind of coelenterate .”

Cheng Tianbi said in a deep voice: "Although their self-awareness is confused, they all have a similar instinct, which is to devour more fresh species and seek more ways to mutate."

"Yes, last night that mouse was biting people and animals in the team. Today, this thing caught the polar bear that is the most unlikely to appear in Qinghai at a glance. They follow their biological instincts and are constantly looking for stronger and fresher creatures. Xenomorphs, if that's what they're here for, we're in big trouble."

There are many things in their team that Qinghai doesn't have. For those monsters, they are not all fresh meat.

Cheng Tianbi said coldly: "No wonder there are so few animals here. Are they like the plants on the snow mountain, devouring other species, making them their own nutrients, and making themselves stronger, so we can't see them here?" There are only individuals that are so powerful that they live in groups.”

Deng Xiao murmured: "Mastiff circle."

The mastiff ring...Prison the little Tibetan mastiffs in it, and kill them at will. The last one that survives will be the mastiff king.Plants devour plants, and mutated creatures devour mutated creatures to obtain stronger and more robust lives. The strong survive, and the weak become part of the strong. Isn't the entire restricted area a huge mastiff ring!

The preliminary judgment on the direction of biological evolution in the restricted area made everyone's emotions even more tense.The current situation is far more difficult than they thought. First, they don't know where the puppet jade is, so they can only look for it blindly. Second, they may have to face many mutated creatures, and now they are just one by one. Appear, if you enter the cave, you will encounter more... The scene is really unimaginable.

Wu You pointed to the insects still crawling in the soil circle: "How to deal with them?"

Mr. Sun said: "I've already sampled it, burn it to death."

Shen Changze dropped a ball of fire, and the high temperature of [-] degrees Celsius instantly burned them to ashes.

Yao Qianjiang frowned and said, "This way of evolution is disgusting."

Zhuang Yao said in a deep voice: "Although it is disgusting, it is very powerful. At the same time, the characteristics and abilities of several creatures can be fused together. If there is some coordination and complementarity, it can almost achieve immortality. For example, the mouse last night was fused with a coelenterate , the body can live even if its body is split open. Although this one is fused with human beings today, it is a child with too low IQ, so it boldly attacked us. Yesterday’s one was much smarter. Sneak attack when you are sleepy, run away as soon as you find a master, and attack Mr. Sun pretending to be dead. We failed to kill it last night, and there will be endless troubles. The news that we entered the restricted area must have spread among those things. The appearance of a self-reliant little monster at the entrance of the cave is a good proof."

Cong Xia looked at the pitch-black cave entrance and shivered: "Then if we go in, we're throwing ourselves into a trap."

Chu Xingzhou showed a sarcastic smile: "When we came to the restricted area, we were already in a trap."

Indeed, from the moment they stepped into this land, they had no way out.

Mr. Sun said in a deep voice: "Even if it is a tiger's den and a wolf's den, we have to break through."

They rested at the entrance of the cave for a while, caught some fish to fill their stomachs, and let Abu and other mutated animals eat a delicious meal.

This might be their last meal.

After eating and drinking, they headed towards the cave.

Turn on the lighting equipment, and the limited area in the cave is illuminated very brightly. The cave is indeed tall and large, and the lighting range is limited, so it is almost impossible to see the whole picture clearly.

The water of the Jinel River in Dongtai wandered into the cave, so they didn't need to find their way, they just had to follow the river.

This walk is one day.

It is difficult to distinguish between day and night in the cave, but people can tell the difference when they are tired. When camping and resting, there are as many as twenty people on night duty at a time.

The cave was very damp. In order to save oxygen, they could only build a fire, eat hard dry food, and drink bitter river water. Eating was the most relaxing time of the day, but no one spoke, and the atmosphere was very depressing.

Someone whispered, "How long is this cave?"

"Why don't Master Ming go and have a look?"

Mr. Sun objected: "Don't act separately at this time."

Rong Lan said: "Why don't I go and have a look, I'll be back in 5 minutes, 5 minutes is enough for me to run dozens of kilometers, I don't believe the cave is really that big."

Mr. Sun sighed: "Okay, but no matter what you encounter, you can't act without authorization. Come back and report to me as soon as possible."

Rong Lan nodded, and her body turned into a golden light, flying towards the lower reaches of the river, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Cong Xia thought, if Rong Lan breaks through to the seventh level one day, will she really have the speed of light?Wouldn't that be too heaven-defying.But thinking about other natural force evolutionists, Rong Lan is not the only one who is abnormal, he feels a lot of "relief".

After a few minutes, Rong Lan came back, but her face was pale and her expression was very strange.

Mr. Sun asked anxiously, "Rong Lan, what's downstream?"

Rong Lan paused: "There is a town."

"what?"

"There is an ancient town submerged in a mushroom forest."

ancient town?Mushroom Forest? !

Rong Lan also seemed to be in a daze, he settled his mind and said: "The lower reaches of the river is a big wetland, and there is an old ruined city in the wetland, and the ancient city is full of fungi that like shade and tide. In the end, replaced by dungeons. Don't ask me why there are these in the cave, I don't know."

Cong Xia took a deep breath, he remembered what the voice said to him when he broke through the third level, "Everything is in the source of origin", could that be the source of origin.And, fungi?When he got the ancient jade, he and Cheng Tianbi stumbled into the mutated mushroom bushes that grew in the underground water pipe by mistake. What is the relationship between the ancient jade and the fungi?Couldn't just happen to like mushrooms.

"Did you see any mutant animals?"

Rong Lan shook her head: "I didn't see it, but I felt it... a lot, and the concentration of Cambrian energy there is very high. If there is no accident, the puppet jade should be there."

Cong Xia smiled bitterly: "I have come into contact with mutated fungi with Tianbi, they are aggressive and corrosive."

Liu Fengyu raised his eyebrows: "Huh? Are you most worried about those mushrooms? Are you not worried about the things hidden inside?"

Cong Xia was so worried that his legs went limp.

Deng Xiao said with a smile: "Brother Cong, don't be afraid, maybe mushrooms can be eaten. I haven't eaten a bite of mushrooms since the end of the world. This time I must try something new. Mushroom stew is the best. It's delicious. The fat mushrooms with full gravy, bite down, tsk tsk..."

Abu excitedly cooperated with him and called out.

"Xiao Deng, don't act recklessly, it might be poisonous."

"Poison? Let me see if that mushroom is more poisonous than me." Deng Xiao rubbed his palms, his eyes began to glow.

Others are not as optimistic as he is, especially those who have evolved brain domains, all of them look serious. This cave is getting weirder and weirder. If you keep walking, you don't know how many weird things you will encounter, but the more bizarre , the closer they are to the truth, they have explored the truth of the end of the world for nearly three years, maybe it is not far away.What's more, the puppet jade is waiting for them there.It's a path that requires a lot of sacrifice to walk down, but do they have any other options?

According to Rong Lan, the underground city can be reached by walking for half a day at most, that is to say, they will soon experience a big battle. In this dark, secret cave that no one in the world may know, Many of them will be buried here, maybe others, maybe themselves.

Cheng Tianbi and others leaned against Abu to rest, and no one spoke for a long time.

Abu seemed to feel the oppressive atmosphere, so he let out an uneasy cry in an extremely thin and soft voice, afraid of breaking the silence and wanting to attract their attention.

Cong Xia rubbed the soft hair on Abu's chin, and said softly, "It's okay, it's okay."

Zhuang Yao said: "Is there any connection? They are also fungi..."

Cong Xia sighed: "You will know when you go." He touched the ancient jade in his arms unconsciously, hoping that the gentle and simple treasure that had saved him twice and helped them countless times would bring him the power to feel at ease .

Cong Xia had an ominous premonition in his heart, which made him full of fear for more information about the place of origin and the end of the world, perhaps because they were too close, so close that they touched too many secrets that other people could not touch.
