Just as Lin Xiaoxue was in disbelief, a strange phenomenon suddenly appeared before her eyes.
The wanton shop and Lin Qi, who was sitting across from her, suddenly disappeared.
What replaced it was a pitch-black and cold universe.
Even someone as calm as Lin Xiaoxue was shocked at this moment. However, she found herself floating in this pitch-black and cold universe.
She saw the galaxy revolving and large clouds of stars surrounding her.
Silence.
A deathly silence.
Lin Xiaoxue’s eyes flickered with fear as she stared blankly at the desolate universe stars in front of her.
Everything before her eyes was too real.
The reality made her doubt that was she deep in the universe?
However, Lin Xiaoxue knew that this was simply impossible.
Although this world’s technology was advanced, it was still inferior to the origin world.
Even the origin world could not make a person reach the universe in an instant. Let alone this world.
Therefore, an image quickly appeared in Lin Xiaoxue’s mind.
Just as she was surprised and in disbelief when Lin Qi told her that he was an Earth Immortal, the corner of Lin Qi’s mouth revealed a faint smile.
Lin Xiaoxue did not mind about the smile at all that time.
But at that moment, Lin Xiaoxue understood why Lin Qi would smile like that.
Everything in front of her could only be Lin Qi’s doing.
Lin Qi created the illusion in front of her.
Although it was an illusion, it was extremely real.
The surroundings were dead silent. There was no sound at all.
The customers whisper in the wonton shop, and the sound of the traffic outside the shop completely disappeared.
There was not even the sound of the wind.
The universe was empty. There was no sound.
Even though she knew that everything in front of her was an illusion, Lin Xiaoxue was still shocked and could not calm down.
She looked at a galaxy not far away. The galaxy was somewhat similar to the otherworld of reincarnation. She saw an azure planet in this galaxy.
With a thought, Lin Xiaoxue’s line of sight crossed billions of miles of s.p.a.ce-time. The azure planet appeared in Lin Xiaoxue’s rock layer. It penetrated through layers of clouds and mist to arrive on this planet.
She carefully observed the scene of this planet from the perspective of a creator.
The planet was still in a primitive state. It was filled with lush forests, mountains, waterfalls, and oceans. All kinds of wild beasts lived in the forests. The spiritual energy was incomparably dense. The environment of Heaven and Earth was many times better than it was now.
Lin Xiaoxue believed that she would be able to break through to the Saint Core Realm within ten years if she cultivated in such an environment.
She saw a primitive human tribe. It was simple, and there were only a few dozen people in the tribe.
Although there were only a few dozen people, there were men and women, old and young. All of them had their lean bodies exposed. Their hairs were messy, and only a piece of animal skin was wrapped around their waists.
When the women in the tribe saw the men returning from the hunt, their faces were filled with joy. Amidst the cheers, they lit up the smoke and planned to cook some food.
The children of the primitive humans surrounded by their sides, breathing in the fragrance from the pot with all their might.
Wild beasts roamed freely in this primitive environment. In comparison, humans had higher intelligence, but they were extremely weak.
The men of the tribe did not always gain anything from hunting in the mountains. Moreover, there was the risk of encountering large-scale wild beasts. It was already rare for a hunting team of more than ten people to be able to return safely.
Therefore, it was already rare for them to be able to eat a full meal like this.
“Roar!”
An earth-shattering roar sounded just as everyone was about to eat a big meal.
The surrounding forest shook, and countless birds were startled.
A fierce tiger that was more than ten meters long and looked like a small hill dashed out from the forest. Its two huge eyes stared at the humans in the tribe.
The fierce tiger had two extremely long and narrow teeth that were as sharp as blades.
Saber-toothed cat.
Lin Xiaoxue exclaimed.
It was a saber-toothed cat.
The saber-toothed cat was a ferocious beast that existed tens of thousands of years ago. It could be said to be one of the most powerful ferocious beasts on land.
However, the saber-toothed cat became extinct due to the natural environment.
The big-sized saber-toothed cat felt hungry. It just happened to see the human tribe by the side of the mountain, so it dashed out of the mountain forest.
“Roar!”
The Saber-toothed cat’s roar shook the sky. it had already rushed into the human tribe within a few leaps and bounds.
All sorts of screams and wails could be heard at that moment.
The women were screaming with all their might. Some of the cowards were so frightened by the saber-toothed cat that they collapsed to the ground, their faces filled with shock.
The men’s faces were filled with panic. They quickly picked up the weapons in their hands and faced the saber-toothed cat with trembling bodies.
However, these primitive humans were as tiny as ants in front of the gigantic saber-toothed tiger. The weapons in their hands were just some simple stone tools and wooden sticks.
The saber-toothed cat roared, and its large head shook. These humans were directly swallowed and weren’t even chewed. These people were not enough for the saber-toothed cat to fill its stomach.
The survivors of the tribe pulled the children and hurriedly ran away.
However, the saber-toothed cat had already caught up before they could even run far.
However, a human child was standing in the same place in such a tragic environment, and he didn’t run away in a panic like the others.
The child was strong and st.u.r.dy. But even he was strong, he was still just a child.
Not to mention a child, even the strongest man in the tribe could not escape the fate of being devoured by the saber-toothed cat.
However, there was no fear on this child’s face. On the contrary, it was replaced by anger. His eyes were fixed on the saber-toothed cat.
He witnessed his father and his clansmen being eaten alive by the saber-toothed cat.
He clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
He wanted revenge. Revenge for his clansmen.
He wanted to kill the saber-toothed cat!
But that was impossible.
How could humans compare to such a large beast?
Humans were pitiful food in front of these beasts.
Lin Xiaoxue couldn’t help but feel a little surprised when she saw the child.
She could feel the emotions in this child’s heart, and that soaring anger infected her.
At this time, the saber-toothed cat also noticed this child.
It slowly turned its large body, and its large pupils stared at the human child not far away.
The child had the guts to look at it with such a gaze?
Roar.
The saber-toothed cat roared, and its deafening sound caused the surrounding air to shake.
However, the child’s expression did not change.
He ran towards the saber-toothed cat and picked up the spear on the ground. His body was thin and small, but he was indomitable.
The saber-toothed cat opened its b.l.o.o.d.y mouth and was about to swallow the child.
Boom.
Suddenly, there was a loud sound.
The saber-toothed cat’s huge head fell to the ground, spitting out a large amount of blood.
It was Lin Xiaoxue who made the move. She couldn’t bear to see this child dying in the tiger’s stomach.
In this illusion, she was the creator.
The saber-toothed cat’s head fell to the ground with just a thought from her.
The child’s eyes flashed with surprise as he looked around.
He saw a person, a beautiful woman.
