When the night gradually faded away and the two moons were finally replaced by the sun, the earthquake was still not over.
Ferocious Beast Mountain Forest.
The chaos had already begun before the earthquake. The Ferocious Beasts who had a bad premonition took action first. Even if they were mortal enemies who fought for territory on normal days, now that they met in the forest, they would not look at each other. They were running for their lives.
Perhaps because their level of evolution was higher than the other Ferocious Beasts in the forest, they could feel the approaching threat more clearly. They had no other thoughts now. There was only one thought in their minds, and that was like an instinctive reaction from the bottom of their hearts.
Run!
Run to a place far away from danger!
Therefore, many Ferocious Beasts fled in all directions. Because of their movements, the forest was also stirred up.
Until the roar came, the whole ground began to shake. The forest seemed to have completely lost its balance and was in chaos.
Fissures suddenly appeared in this mountain forest that was home to billions of creatures. Some of the beasts that couldn't escape in time fell directly into the fissures. They only had time to let out a cry of despair. The Ferocious Beasts who could not stop in time fell one after another. Those who managed to stop were also knocked down by the Ferocious Beasts behind them. They became the souls of the dead under the cracks.
A Ferocious Beast used its powerful jumping ability to cross the cracks that had just appeared. However, it did not even have time to rejoice. In the next moment, a rock wall suddenly rose from the ground and appeared in front of it.
The whole ground shook violently, constantly letting out deafening roars.
No matter how majestic and ferocious the Ferocious Beasts were, at this moment, in front of such power, they could only tremble.
The pool at the top of the volcano that Shao Xuan had seen before was long gone. Moreover, before Shao Xuan and the others left, there were warriors who went to check it out. In the depression, there were only some melted rocks.
And now, when the sun rose, with an earth-shattering bang, terrifying and violent volcanic ash and rocks shot high into the sky. The shockwave dispersed the clouds around the top of the mountain at a speed visible to the naked eye. It quickly spread out in a circle and spread further away.
When the volcano erupted, the peaks of the few mountains near it collapsed instantly.
The clouds above the mountain pass were even more vulnerable. They were completely pierced through by the black, yellow, and white rocks and dust.
The sudden eruption of the volcano that had been dormant for nearly a thousand years brought scorching hot air currents that poured down like a waterfall towards the surrounding forest. Crimson lava fiercely surged down from the mountain pass.
Lightning appeared in the clouds and around the black and white smoke high up in the sky. It flickered as if there was a pair of gigantic hands holding the lightning and wantonly scribbling there. There was no pattern, and there was no intention of restraining it!
More and more black smoke spewed out. The rising black smoke was like ink, dyeing the sky black. It was even more powerful and overbearing than the dark clouds! Moreover, they were expanding at an extremely terrifying speed!
The ferocious beasts in the forest ran with all their might. The huge and thick ancient trees were knocked to the ground. Some of the weaker beasts were directly knocked to death. They had no time to dodge at all.
The carcass of the ferocious beast that had been killed by the tree didn't even last a second. In the next moment, it was trampled into mud by an even larger beast running from behind. The tree that had caused its death was directly knocked down.
The cracking sounds were like the screams of the forest. All around them were frantic beasts. Big and small, they ran without any sense of reason. The slightest bit of carelessness would cause them to crash into each other. They were already so scared that they didn't have any ability to think. They could only rely on their instincts and instincts to run away from danger. As for the rest, they could only resign themselves to fate. This kind of situation was already beyond the control of these insignificant creatures.
In the place where the Yanjiao tribe was located, there were still wanderers who hadn't left with the Yanjiao team. They had stayed here for the first two days and felt very comfortable. They had big houses to live in, and some people had even changed the houses that the shaman and chief had lived in. Because of this, a few wanderers had even fought for a while. They went to each house and found some things that the Yanjiao people had forgotten or didn't take with them. There were some abandoned gold wares and some food.
They had originally planned to search all the houses in Yanjiao and then leave for other places. They weren't really stupid. It wasn't that they didn't know the danger here. They just took the risk out of desperation. They thought that after the Yanjiao left, they would pick up the leftovers and then leave with the "trophies" to exchange for more things in other places.
However, everything happened too fast. Before they had finished searching all the houses, the unforeseen event had already happened.
The violent shaking of the ground had already caused nearly two-thirds of the houses to collapse. Among them, there were many stone houses that were once considered solid. However, under such an earthquake, they couldn't withstand it.
However, the wanderers who stayed mainly lived in the core area of Yanjiao, where the chief, shaman, and leaders lived. Those houses were built by more powerful warriors. Compared to the other houses, the majority of the wanderers had survived that night. However, the remaining houses would not be able to hold out for much longer.
But this time was different from the past.
First, there was a shocking explosion. They didn't know what had happened. Countless beasts ran out of the forest. They were so scared that they didn't dare to go out of the house.
Although there were beasts rushing out of the forest on the previous night when the moonlight was shining, there weren't as many beasts as there were now.
The wanderer hiding in the shaman's house was so scared that his face was pale. Big drops of sweat fell down, and his whole body was trembling. Outside, large and small beasts ran past the house. The footsteps didn't mean to stop. Instead, they became more and more frequent. Some even directly hit the house. If the stone house hadn't been built solid, it would have collapsed. However, no matter how solid the stone house was, it couldn't withstand the continuous earthquake and the impact of the beasts.
The wanderer swallowed his saliva and reached out his trembling hand. He climbed up the low table on the wall and looked at the small window on the wall. The other windows in the house had already been blocked by him. Now, there was only this small window left.
He moved the wooden board away from the window and looked at the sky outside.
The shaman lived in a good place. There wasn't much shelter. He could see the tall stone pillar in Yanjiao and the sky.
Looking outside, the fear in the wanderer's eyes rose to the extreme. At that moment, he had given up on living.
In the sky, the red clouds under the morning sun were quickly dyed black. The rolling ink-like black smoke covered the sky and was spreading out of the forest.
The dense flock of birds tried their best to speed up and leave this hellish place before the black smoke. However, they were still overtaken and swallowed into the darkness.
The light of the day was quickly dimming. Rocks and other things were thrown out of the ejecting place like cannonballs. They smashed everywhere in the forest. Even the edge of the forest and outside the forest were not spared.
The tall stone pillar that stood near the fire pit was the one that Shao Xuan rebuilt later. The original one survived the disaster a thousand years ago but was destroyed by the Wanshi people. The new one wasn't as lucky as the old one. This time, the disaster was more serious than the one a thousand years ago.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The falling stones smashed down one after another, smashing into the house and the stone pillar, causing stone chips to fly everywhere.
The roars of the beasts, the explosions, and the sound of the rocks hitting each other intertwined. It was so loud that no one could hear anything else.
When the last light disappeared, it was pitch black all around.
The explosions continued. The panicked beasts were still frantically looking for a way out in desperation.
The black smoke in the sky continued to spread. Below, it was like the end of the world.
