Chapter 124: Attack Of An Unknown Creature
The cave looked ordinary on the outside, but it was pitch black inside. Lin Bai frowned and sent his spiritual sense in, but there was no reaction.
There seemed to be no spiritual energy fluctuation inside, as if there was no danger. However, Lin Bai felt as if something was calling him. There was a faint voice telling him that he had to go in.
While Lin Bai was observing, he didn’t notice a gray fog floating out of his body, as if it had been summoned by something and entered the bottomless hole.
Lin Bai’s pupils were slightly startled, but he didn’t notice that there was also a gray fog surging in the depths of his vision. It was as if his eyes were covered by a pair of invisible hands, and his pupils were gradually covered with a layer of darkness, making Lin Bai have the urge to step into the hole.
Little Green and Little Red, who were beside him, saw Lin Bai suddenly take a step forward. Their eyes were fixed on him, and it was obvious that something was wrong. Little Green hissed non-stop, but Lin Bai did not seem to hear it. Step by step, he saw that he was getting closer and closer to the cave.
The few of them exerted their strength at the same time, but they could not pull him back. It was as if there was some magical power at the entrance of the cave. They saw that he was getting closer and closer to the cave, but Lin Bai still did not come back to his senses. The three of them had no other choice.
An unknown wind blew, bringing with it a bone-chilling coldness. It drilled into all the bones and blood in his body. Lin Bai subconsciously s.h.i.+vered and finally woke up. At this moment, he was only half a step away from the entrance of the cave.
He took half a step back and looked at the anxious faces of Little Green and the others. Seeing that he had woken up, they both let out a sigh of relief.
“This cave is indeed strange.”
Lin Bai frowned so much that he could squeeze a mosquito to death. He could confirm that there was something in this cave, but he did not know what it was.
There was no sign of fool Li around. Perhaps he was also confused by the existence in the cave. Seeing that Lin Bai had the intention to enter, Little Green and the others shook their heads in unison.
“Good boy. Since I’m already here, I have to go in and take a look.”
He took a step without hesitation. The dark cave entrance was like a ferocious beast from ancient times opening its b.l.o.o.d.y mouth, instantly engulfing his figure.
The cave was pitch black. A cl.u.s.ter of flames emerged from Lin Bai’s fingertips, illuminating the path ahead. The surroundings instantly became bright.
In the darkness, there seemed to be a pair of faint eyes watching his every move. Lin Bai suddenly turned around, but there was nothing behind him in the darkness.
The feeling of being stared at became more and more obvious, as if there was an invisible person, which made Lin Bai feel as if there was a ray of light on his back. Little Green and the others were guarding beside Lin Bai, but they did not notice anything strange. It was really very strange.
He could vaguely see that there seemed to be something on the wall. He reached out to touch it, but it was still uneven.
When he took a closer look, he saw it was some messy sculptures. The flames could only illuminate the area nearby. Lin Bai looked for a long time, but he still could not understand what it meant. He turned his head, but he met with a pair of enormous beast eyes. Whether it was Lin Bai or Little Green, they were all taken aback.
It was especially so for Little Red. All the hair on her body instantly exploded. Little Green also arched her body and fell into a state of alert.
Lin Bai was shocked. “This is –”
He touched it and realized that it was also a sculpture. However, it was lifelike and had already reached the stage where it looked real. The feeling of being stared at earlier must have come from this sculpture.
This sculpture was extremely large, and it was carved with an unknown creature. Most of its body was submerged in the clouds, so Lin Bai did not know what it was.
However, even its eyes could occupy such a large part, let alone other parts. It was hidden in the clouds, but on the ground were many small people dancing strangely, as if they were wors.h.i.+pping something.
Lin Bai wanted to look over again, but the sculpture was damaged. All the things on the murals were like this, more or less missing parts, so it was difficult to connect them.
He continued to walk forward to see if there were any new discoveries, but Lin Bai had no idea. After he left, the eyes also rolled around, silently watching his back as he left.
Lin Bai continued to walk forward, but the gray fog around him grew thicker. However, because the environment was too dark, he could not see clearly.
Suddenly, he seemed to have sensed something. A strong wind blew over, and Lin Bai suddenly rolled to the ground, narrowly avoiding it.
Standing not far away was a black creature. Because the light was dim, it could not be seen clearly. Seeing that Lin Bai had dodged it, it launched another attack.
“Little Red!”
Little Red, who was by the side, received the order and suddenly spat out flames. In an instant, it was as if it was daytime. A long red dragon interweaved with golden light and swept towards the black creature.
The long red dragon instantly scattered it. A large hole was burned in its chest, and it was turned into ashes. However, in the next second, under Lin Bai’s astonished gaze, the black creature once again gathered.
An unknown black substance surged, and even the air felt extremely sticky. It repaired the previously damaged hole and returned to its original appearance. At the same time, another one split out from the side. Two beasts charged towards Lin Bai at the same time.
All of this happened in the span of a few breaths. Lin Bai dodged to the side. The speed of this thing was too fast, and it was like a ghost. Little Red once again sent out several long fire dragons, scattering them until they could not scatter anymore. There weren’t even ashes of them left.
However, their two figures were swallowed by the flames, and then they actually split into four again! They attacked Lin Bai from four different directions.
