BXBX NOVEL Chapter 413: 414 What is That?
There were too many tentacles here, and their simultaneous assault nearly formed a massive tentacle network, making it nearly impossible to move within it.
[Attribute Points +3000…]
[Attribute Points +3000…]
The onslaught of the flesh mountain, coupled with the falling chunks of rock, felt oddly refreshing.
Li Xiaobai looked up slightly to assess the situation above and was instantly dumbfounded, his eyes almost bulging out.
“What is this!”
The stones of the mountain wall before him were quietly falling away, revealing the flesh-colored mountain wall beneath or more accurately, undulating conglomerations of the flesh mountain.
The tentacles were piercing out from them.
No wonder since he had entered this mountain, his Attribute Points had soared—it turned out this wasn’t any cliff or crag at all, but a colossal flesh mountain, much like the one in the Tianbei Secret Realm, probably not fully awakened yet, thus still embedded with chunks of stone.
From the outside, it looked no different from an ordinary mountain.
“Hiss, hiss!”
The gargantuan chunks of flesh trembled as more and more rocks slid off the mountainside.p>
With a focused look, Li Xiaobai knew that dealing with the flesh mountain would be easy—time for Hellfire.
He flipped his wrist, and a large ball of pitch-black flame covered him entirely; at the same time, within a 510-meter radius, everything turned into a dark sea.
Wisps of blue smoke rose as the Hellfire relentlessly scorched the flesh mountain’s tendrils, and one after another, the weakened tentacles fell to the ground, turning into piles of ash.
[Hellfire… current coverage area: 512 meters.]
[Current coverage area: 515 meters…]
[520 meters…]
[530 meters…]
The initial coverage area of the Hellfire continued to expand, with the flesh mountains of the Great Crossing Realm burning much longer than the cultivators of the same realm. The flesh mountains were more resilient to beatings, regenerating quicker, and thus able to withstand the burning longer.
The pitch-black flames spread rapidly up the mountain wall, engulfing the entire cliff in just a few breaths.
Countless tentacles turned to ash almost instantly upon contact with the Hellfire.
Continuous hissing smoke rose as the entire mountain shook violently, with the flesh mountain attempting to use its tumors and tentacles to retreat rapidly and escape the flames’ scorching.
Sensing the enemy’s movement, Li Xiaobai smiled slightly.
He might not be able to keep up with the speed of a Great Crossing Realm flesh mountain, but right now, he was inside the body of this flesh mountain, with no need to chase after it—simply waiting silently for the Hellfire to completely burn it down would suffice.
Countless tumorous tentacles entangled with each other, forming massive tentacles that barely resisted the flames’ burning, forcibly breaking through the Hellfire and rising from the ground, the entire mass of flesh fleeing rapidly in a certain direction.
Li Xiaobai’s expression was one of surprise; this flesh mountain seemed to be far from mindless, knowing how to use its advantages to break through the fire and move rapidly to escape, its control over crisis extremely on point.
The direction in which the flesh mountain fled led deeper, following a path similar to the one he had planned earlier, both heading towards the direction of the first battlefield.
Having such a free means of transportation felt pretty good, Li Xiaobai lay down atop the mountain wall, waiting for the Flesh Mountain to turn to ashes, by which time he would likely have arrived at his destination.
Along the way, small Flesh Mountains were continually drawn into the walls to fill them up. This was how the Flesh Mountains accumulated, with larger ones allowing smaller ones to attach to them, thus growing gradually bigger.
However, the speed at which the Hellfire burned was terrifying; the Flesh Mountains that were sucked in were wiped clean in an instant, serving no useful purpose.
With the Flesh Mountain chariot charging through the frontier, it indeed saved him a lot of effort. Flesh Mountains were everywhere here, and passing through involved dealing with each one individually, which could waste a lot of time. Now, with the charge of the Great Crossing Realm Flesh Mountain, there was almost no obstruction, and the path was clear.
“I really want to know where this Flesh Mountain is running to, it seems to have a clear purpose and is not running aimlessly. Is it seeking someone?”
Li Xiaobai sat atop the huge Flesh Mountain, muttering to himself. The Flesh Mountain evidently had a purpose in its run, as if it were seeking someone for shelter, which was somewhat eerie.
At the same time.
Inside the First Battlefield.
A small troop was heading deep into the frontier.
“Senior Sister Qin, do we really have to go in there? That’s a place even Great Crossing Realm Cultivators dare not enter lightly. We are only at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, if we go, I’m afraid it will be a journey of death with no life!”
The squad consisted of four people, and the speaker was a woman who looked very delicate, her face full of concern.
“Junior Sister Lin, you know that I have reasons that compel me to go. The Wang Family is pressing harder and harder. If we can’t enhance our strength, we’ll be at the mercy of Young Master Wang. Over the years, how many sisters have been bullied by him?”
Qin Huan spoke coldly. Mentioning Young Master Wang, a cold light flashed in her beautiful eyes.
“That’s right, Junior Sister Lin, Senior Sister Qin is correct. That Young Master Wang is the offspring of Wang Guan, and behind him stands the power of the Second Battlefield. As for the oppression of female cultivators, City Lord Mei simply turns a blind eye. Now, the situation in this battlefield is basically dominated by him.”
“If we want to escape his clutches, we must rapidly enhance our cultivation levels!”
The other two young men also spoke with determination in their eyes. If they could not break through their cultivation levels, facing the oppression of Young Master Wang would be no better than a living death. Instead, it would be better to venture into the frontier!
“But are there really treasures in the depths?”
Lin Lan was still somewhat apprehensive.
“Of course, there are. Over the years, countless powerful predecessors have perished in the depths of the frontier, leaving behind their Elixirs and Magic Treasures. If we can acquire even one or two of them, enhancing our cultivation level will be a sure thing.”
“Now I am at the second level of the Transcendance Tribulation Stage. If I can advance to the third level and reach the same status as Prince Wang, we won’t have to be bullied anymore!”
Qin Huan’s eyes sparkled with a cold light as she spoke: “If Junior Sister Lin is afraid, you can go back first. Once we find the Elixirs, we will share some with you.”
“No, no, no, Senior Sister Qin, I didn’t mean that. Thanks to Senior Sister Qin, I was able to protect my virtue. Naturally, I will go with you.”
Lin Lan hurriedly waved her hands as she spoke.
“Then let’s continue. As long as we don’t venture too deep, we shouldn’t encounter any danger.”
Qin Huan comforted them and led the group to cautiously navigate deeper into the frontier.
But at that moment, Lin Lan suddenly trembled, pointing in a diagonal direction and exclaimed, “Senior Sister, look, what is that!”
Hearing the shout, everyone’s hearts tightened, and they quickly turned their heads to look.
In an instant, the faces of the cultivators all turned pale, their teeth chattered, their calves cramped, and a strong sense of fear swept over their entire body.
“What… is that?”
