Report

Late at night, the Taihang Mountains rumbled incessantly. Hundreds and thousands of majestic mountains rose from the ground, appearing out of thin air. It was a magnificent sight.

Some of the mountains were over a thousand feet high, like divine swords piercing the sky. They were extremely steep and unclimbable.

Some of the mountains were magnificent and majestic. Their whole bodies were huge, like the ancient demonic bulls in the myths. They carried a wild and desolate aura as they stood there, towering tens of thousands of meters high.

On some of the mountains, silver waterfalls hung down. Looking from afar, they looked like streaks of silk under the moonlight. The mist was dense and the spiritual energy was dense.

"Is this still the Taihang Mountains that I know?" Zhou Quan was inexplicably shocked. He almost bit his lips to make sure that this was not a dream.

The world had been turned upside down!

The miraculous scenes were astounding and hard to believe.

Chu Feng was in a daze. He was also a bit absent-minded.

In front of him, huge mountains appeared out of thin air. They were much taller than the original Taihang Mountains. They were overflowing with colorful lights and full of spiritual energy. It was like a fairyland.

The Taihang Mountains were much wider and more majestic than before.

Chu Feng and Zhou Quan both grew up in this area. They were all too familiar with it. The changes in front of them could be described as magnificent. A wild and desolate aura was blowing in their faces.

This caused them to be both shocked and alarmed.

"What do you think? Do you think there are divine fruits and immortal abodes in there?" Zhou Quan's eyes shone with excitement.

The two of them had seen some reports on their communicators. Mount Song, Mount Wangwu, and other places had all kinds of miraculous scenes. Even ordinary rocks were flowing with purple clouds.

The young man who ate the strange silver fruit and grew silver wings lived near Mount Wangwu. He was later picked up by people from Celestial Biology.

This made Zhou Quan's heart beat faster and his imagination ran wild.

Chu Feng was very calm. He said, "Wake up. Don't think too highly of this. There are so many huge mountains. There must be many ferocious birds and beasts inside. If a few of them break out, it will be a disaster."

Zhou Quan's heart skipped a beat. It was not impossible. It could happen at any time.

"Roar …"

As if to confirm Chu Feng's words, a beast's roar came from the depths of the mountain. Then, clouds of smoke erupted, and a huge beast roared at the sky, venting its anger.

Zhou Quan's hair stood on end. He looked at the mountain range and carefully searched for the source of the sound.

"It's that huge mountain. Why do I see … a monster howling at the top of the mountain?" He stuttered as he pointed at a huge mountain in the mountain range.

It was extremely far away, but he could vaguely make out a wave of fiery light jumping about. It was as if a red-furred wild beast was overlooking this place, roaring. Then, it devoured the essence of the sun and moon.

There really were ferocious beasts, and their home was just outside the Taihang Mountains. It was too dangerous.

Zhou Quan's face was pale. He and Chu Feng had encountered such a thing as soon as they returned. Could it be that they couldn't stop and had to start running again?

"Phew …"

The wind seemed to have picked up in the distance. A dark cloud floated past and finally landed on the mountain.

"A giant bird!" Chu Feng's eyelids twitched. How big was that bird?

"Am … am I seeing it right?" Zhou Quan's Adam's apple trembled as he swallowed hard.

The giant bird's body was grey and hazy, and it fell into the depths of the mountain range.

"If it targets the people outside and hunts for food, we won't be able to escape even if we want to." Zhou Quan sighed. That kind of raptor was fast. If it wanted to leave the mountain, it could reach them in the blink of an eye.

While they were talking, a purple raptor appeared in the mountain range. It was not as big as the previous one, but it was not small either. It seemed to be more than ten meters long. It spread its wings and soared towards the outside of the mountain range.

It was very special. Its wings were shining brightly and had an amazing luster, as if it was cast from metal.

"Oh no, I really jinxed it. There really is a ferocious bird coming out!" Zhou Quan wanted to slap himself.

Both of them felt a chill run down their spines. They quickly hid behind a tree by the roadside, afraid that they would be discovered and become the bird's first prey.

In the dark night, the divine bird emitted a bright light. Like a purple waterfall, it rushed towards the outside of the mountain. It let out a long cry, as if it was very excited and longing for something.

Boom!

All of a sudden, a ball of purple flame burst out from its body, illuminating the sky and making it as bright as day. The raging fire was burning.

This scene made people's hearts tremble.

That kind of fire made people's hearts palpitate even from far away. Feeling the waves of heat rushing down from the sky, Zhou Quan wiped the sweat off his forehead.

The purple giant bird was like a purple sun in the sky, making the area exceptionally bright.

"How terrifying. This is a demonic bird. Just one of it is enough to destroy an entire town," Zhou Quan whispered. His heart was full of worry.

Chu Feng was also silent. Only God knew how many terrifying birds and beasts there were in the Taihang Mountains. Just a moment ago, hundreds and thousands of huge mountains appeared.

However, a mournful cry in the sky stunned the two of them.

The purple flame was torrential. That giant bird was burning, wailing and struggling violently. Then, it fell to the ground.

What situation was this? Chu Feng and Zhou Quan looked at each other in dismay.

Just now, it was majestic and awe-inspiring. It looked as if it was about to spread its wings and pounce towards the outside of the mountain. They thought that those flames were a display of its strength. Who would have thought that in the end, it would ignite itself?

Puff!

In mid-air, there was a sound of explosion. The purple giant bird disintegrated with a loud bang before it landed on the ground. Accompanied by the flames, it turned into a large pile of ashes, swirling in the air.

It died just like that? For a long time, neither Chu Feng nor Zhou Quan said a word.

"Bless the sacred mountain!"

Finally, Zhou Quan broke the silence. He cupped his fists and bowed towards the direction of the Taihang Mountains. This Fatso was a little superstitious. It was also forced by all kinds of strange things.

Suddenly, there was another movement in the depths of the Taihang Mountains. A monster was glowing red. Its body looked like a giant crocodile standing upright, but it had wings that were ten meters long. Its entire body was red in color. It was flying towards the outside.

Boom!

When it was close to the outside of the mountain, a fierce ball of flame exploded. It was also burning. Screaming in pain, it fell from the sky and turned into black ashes.

"Another big guy died!"

At this point, Chu Feng and Zhou Quan had a slight inkling of what was going on. They couldn't get out?

The two of them looked at each other and hesitated.

"Should we go and take a look?"

The world had changed drastically. Strange phenomena were everywhere. They knew that the world would be completely different in the future. If they were bold and proactive enough, they might be able to find some inexplicable opportunities in the early days.

Of course, they might also lose their lives in vain.

The two of them were brave. Although they had some concerns, they couldn't help but walk forward. It was impossible to enter the mountain. They just wanted to take a look outside the mountain.

What was there? Why did the giant beast burn?

It didn't look very far, but they walked for many miles before they reached the exit of the mountain. There were large patches of black ashes on the ground. There were also broken bones and scorch marks. Those were the parts that hadn't been completely burned.

"Why do I feel like there's a monstrous murderous aura in front of us?"

For some reason, Zhou Quan felt his legs were trembling. He couldn't even stand straight. His calves and stomach were cramping, and they were shaking non-stop.

Chu Feng also felt uneasy. He felt like he was being stared at by a ferocious beast. His body was stiff, and his hair stood on end. His eyelids were twitching non-stop.

The two of them took a deep breath and continuously retreated. Their initial thoughts were too simple. They couldn't get too close to this mountain range. It was completely different from before.

A moment later, when they hid in the forest, they suddenly saw pairs of lantern-like spheres of light appear at the exit of the mountain range. Some were blood red, some were deep blue, and some were golden. They were all extremely cold.

There were too many of them. That place was densely packed.

"Eyes! There are pairs of eyes there! They want to come out!" Zhou Quan cried out in a low voice. He was almost scared out of his wits.

There were so many pairs of eyes in the pitch-black mountain pass. Many of them were as big as water basins. Just the thought of them made one's scalp go numb.

For some reason, that place was extremely dark. It was different from the glowing depths of the mountain range. The light seemed to have been absorbed, and only those terrifying and emotionless eyes could be seen.

Bang!

Suddenly, a creature rushed out. The ground trembled and the forest swayed. Leaves rustled and fell. It was a terrifying scene.

However, just like what they had seen before, it disintegrated with a loud bang as soon as it rushed out of the mountain pass. It turned into flames and burned to a crisp.

"It's self-immolating. Does it not want to live anymore?" Zhou Quan mumbled. He spoke casually, but in fact, his legs were trembling.

Following that, a series of roars were heard. Wild beasts rushed out, and there were even silver spiders the size of houses. It was a terrifying scene, but the end result was the same. All of them turned into ashes.

Not a single one of them made it to the outside world alive.

"The Divine Mountain of Taihang!" Zhou Quan almost knelt down. He couldn't stop mumbling.

After a long time, there was no more movement in the pitch-black mountain pass. It was absolutely silent. However, the ancient killing intent was still there. Clearly, it was still dangerous. Those creatures didn't leave.

It was only when golden clouds flowed and a hazy light appeared that the silence was broken.

A Calf was about a meter tall. It slowly moved outwards. It seemed to be afraid, but at the same time, there was hope in it. It moved cautiously and carefully.

"Is this Calf made of gold?" Zhou Quan was dumbfounded.

Chu Feng was also surprised. He looked forward.

The Calf's entire body was golden. It glowed in the darkness. Its hair was shiny, as if it was made of gold. Even its pupils and a pair of small horns were golden.

It didn't have the clumsiness of an ordinary cow. It had a spiritual nature and was obviously extraordinary.

At the very least, no one had ever seen a Calf that looked like gold.

The mountain pass was very quiet. Pairs of cold lantern-like eyes stared at the golden Calf, waiting to see if it could make it out alive.

One step, two steps … ten steps … until a hundred steps!

The Calf was still safe and sound. It was very excited. It could even express its emotions like a human. It became bolder and sped up.

In the end, it successfully made it out of the mountain pass and appeared outside the mountain range.

Zhou Quan cursed. He was a little worried, but he was also eager to try. He said in a low voice, "A bull god walked out. Its whole body is golden. There must be something special about it. It's so small. Can we catch it?"
