Chapter 572: Divine Level Creature
Very soon, Ye Xiao returned to the top of the mountain with a small creature in his hand. This was a living racc.o.o.n. It was only a Golden Core Realm demonic beast so it did not take long for Ye Xiao to catch this little monster.
Arriving beside the lake of green liquid, Ye Xiao once again had the same dangerous feeling. Actually, this sense of danger was not coming from the green liquid itself, but from something that was inside the green liquid.
The green liquid only seemed to be a kind of gate that could lead one to whatever it was inside it.
To know the truth, Ye Xiao threw the racc.o.o.n at the lake of green liquid.
As expected, the moment the green liquid sensed a living being, it immediately trembled, and suddenly, an extremely strong suction force was applied on the racc.o.o.n that was still in mid-air and Ye Xiao also who was standing at the side of the lake.
"What the?"
The suction force was extremely strong, so strong that Ye Xiao had no strength to resist. Ye Xiao was immediately sucked inside the green liquid, causing him unable to breathe. Ye Xiao felt like choking himself to death. There was no air inside the green liquid and green liquid seemed to be sticking around Ye Xiao"s body densely. It was as if it had intelligence and could sense Ye Xiao"s existence. It made sure to restrict Ye Xiao in every manner, making it extremely hard for him to move.
"Bang!"
Fortunately, he doesn"t have to stay inside the lake of green liquid for a long time otherwise he would have definitely died. After some time, Ye Xiao felt as if there was nothing around him and he was in an open s.p.a.ce before sensing himself falling down.
With a "bang" sound, Ye Xiao fell to the ground as dust flew everywhere.
Opening his eyes, Ye Xiao first looked above and saw green liquid floating in the air without anything"s support. The racc.o.o.n that he threw was still stuck inside the green liquid and had long since died because of not being able to breathe.
"How did I get down here?"
Ye Xiao muttered because the racc.o.o.n was still stuck inside the green liquid and the green liquid seemed to be eating the racc.o.o.n"s body slowly. Ye Xiao"s body trembled a little when he saw this scene.
If not for some mysterious reason that the green liquid threw him down and did not eat him, his ending would have been the same as the racc.o.o.n.
"But why did it throw me down and did not try to kill me before eating?"
At first, Ye Xiao could clearly feel the green liquid sticking around his body layers after layers densely. Even breathing became impossible as he felt like dying at any minute. Ye Xiao had no strength to resist. Even his movement was restricted by the green liquid. It was clear that the green liquid wanted him to die.
But then, the green liquid suddenly threw him down. It was as if it received some sort of order from something and did not dare to kill him.
"It was extremely dangerous!"
Whatever the reason was, at least, Ye Xiao was safe and sound right now. He heaved a sigh of relief for not dying meaninglessly and stood up. Then he looked at his surroundings.
This place seemed to be like an underground cave but the cave was extremely s.p.a.cious. Right now, Ye Xiao was inside the mountain. Everywhere was dark and nothing could be seen. Ye Xiao tried to spread his Divine Sense so that he could at least tell the terrain here but he was disappointed to see his Divine Sense not working.
It was the same with the Lake of Green Liquid.
Ye Xiao"s Divine Sense was unable to penetrate the surface of Green Liquid and see what was inside, and the same happened now, He could not sense anything. As if his Divine Sense was restricted by something.
Taking a deep breath, Ye Xiao flicked his finger as the Sun Fire Soul immediately lit up. Ye Xiao waved his hand and his entire body was covered by the Sun Fire Soul.
The Sun Fire Soul was an extremely rare fire soul. It was also strengthened by Ye Xiao, causing it to become even stronger. Because of the sun fire soul, a few hundred meters of the area around Ye Xiao lit up, making him finally able to see what was around him.
But he was again shocked. It is because everywhere his gaze fell, Ye Xiao could only see many layers of formations. The thing that shocked him was that he could not even recognize a single one of these formations. It was as if these formations were on an entirely different level and Ye Xiao does not even have the qualification to know what kind of formations are these.
There were at least hundreds of formations and every formation was extremely big and complicated. Wherever Ye Xiao went, he could only see layers after layers of formations. It was as if this entire mountain was supported by these formations.
Suddenly, Ye Xiao thought of something frightening. He could not believe it at first but after wandering around for more than fifteen minutes inside the mountain, Ye Xiao came to a conclusion.
His conclusion was that the mountain outside was only the sh.e.l.l, protecting something extremely precious inside. These layers of formations must be the ones supporting the entire mountain and these must be the ones to also make the green liquid at the top of the mountain.
Most importantly, each and every one of these formations must be Divine Level Formations. Only this can explain why Ye Xiao was unable to recognize a single one of these formations.
The lake of green liquid must be the only gate to enter this place. Since this world "Well If h.e.l.l" was here since the ancient era, after so many years of being here and baptizing by countless formations, it must have given birth to intelligence. But it still fears whatever was inside the mountain and it must be because it received some sort of order that it let Ye Xiao go.
Ye Xiao took a deep breath and started walking deeper. He did not know where the road he was walking could lead him to, but right now, Ye Xiao had no way out. He has to go wherever the road here leads him to.
Along the way, Ye Xiao did not encounter a single demonic beast. Ye Xiao only frowned his brows at first before relaxing it. It was not any surprise not to encounter any demonic beast here.
There was only one gate that leads inside the mountain and throughout the years, no matter what kind of demonic beast it was, all of them must have died and eaten by the Green Liquid in the lake on top of the mountain, not leaving a single one behind.
Ye Xiao continued to walk and very soon, he arrived in front of a huge bronze gate. Although this gate only looked to be made up of bronze, Ye Xiao could feel it was no ordinary gate. It was because there were also many formations on the gate, suppressing the gate"s true face.
In front of the gate, a dragon-type demonic with wings was sleeping. It was extremely big. It had no horns on his head like a true dragon but it did have sparkling scales. Its body was blue and was more than fifteen meters big.
Ye Xiao stopped in his track because he could feel that this demonic beast was a lot stronger than anyone he had ever met. He believed even the strongest, the Demon Monarch in his prime might not be able to withstand a single blow from this demonic beast.
Also, the air around this demonic beast was filled with True Essence. Although the demonic beast seemed to be sleeping, Ye Xiao could clearly see True Essence being continuously absorbed by this demonic beast.
What does it mean?
It meant that this demonic beast was at least a Divine Lord Level Demonic Beast and was here to protect whatever was at the other side of the door.
Ye Xiao could also see many skeletons of humans and people from other races at a corner not far away from this demonic beast.
He was surprised to see that there were actually some golden skeletons that were giving off a divine aura. Even the air around these golden bones was constantly fluctuating as if something was stirring it up.
"The skeletons of Divine Level Beings!"
Ye Xiao opened his eyes wide in surprise. He almost could not believe what he was seeing right now. He subconsciously wanted to believe everything he was seeing to be a dream and not reality.
Ye Xiao did not know the reason, but he suddenly felt there might be his place among these skeletons very soon.
