Report

The mountaintop fell into silence. There was no sound.

The three creatures didn't pay attention to Chu Feng, as if they had completely ignored him.

Chu Feng understood that he was quite far from the mountaintop, and they probably didn't think he posed any threat. Thus, they didn't mind and let him stand below.

These were three Beyonder creatures with intelligence.

"I need to leave now!"

Chu Feng decided to descend the mountain. Although he was very curious about the little tree that had taken root on the bronze mountain, it was too dangerous for him to stay here. He could lose his life at any time.

The fragrance became thicker as it came from the bronze mountain.

The mastiff moved as fast as lightning. With a few leaps, it passed through the pile of rocks and rushed straight to the peak along the steep mountain.

The one-zhang long black yak had a shiny black body. The thick horns on its head were very intimidating. It moved its hooves and unhurriedly followed behind.

Its steps were very steady. Along the side with rocks, it actually climbed up the steep bronze mountain.

The vicious bird in the air seemed to be cast from gold. Its wings became more and more resplendent, and its eyes flashed with golden light. It lowered its altitude and approached the cliff, staring at the little tree.

Just as Chu Feng was about to retreat, the fragrance became several times thicker. The flower bud was about to bloom.

"Pop!"

Although there was some distance between them, Chu Feng could clearly hear the sound of the flower blooming. At the top of the little tree, the fist-sized silver flower bud bloomed one petal.

The flower bloomed with a sound!

The fragrance was much thicker than before. It seemed to have a special magical nature that made people feel intoxicated.

In a flash, the three creatures rushed to the edge of the cliff and nervously watched. Moreover, they began to fiercely sniff the flower's fragrance, as if they were swallowing it in large mouthfuls.

Chu Feng turned around and just happened to see this scene. Their strange behavior made him very surprised.

The three creatures couldn't bear it any longer. They wanted to attack each other, displaying their terrifying wild nature.

A series of soft sounds could be heard. The silver petals kept on blooming, bringing with them a white mist and waves of sparkling light. The flower bloomed with a sound, and the fragrance was more than ten times thicker!

Chu Feng was truly apprehensive. What kind of flower was this? This kind of fragrance was too alluring. He couldn't help but want to turn around and rush towards the mountain top.

At the top of the three-foot-tall small tree, the fist-sized silver flower had completely bloomed. White mist spread out and pervaded the bronze cliff, making it look like a fairyland.

There were golden spots on the petals, and at this moment, they were shining together. In the white mist, the golden specks of light shone like stars, shining brilliantly.

The scene was magnificent and enchanting.

The three creatures had been waiting for this moment, waiting for it to mature!

They fought over it, clashing fiercely, sharp claws moving through the air. This was the release of their primitive wildness. They were incomparably crazy, all of them wishing to monopolize that flower.

When the jet-black yak stepped on the mountain, the entire mountain peak trembled. It was extremely powerful.

Dang!

In midair, the golden vicious bird opened its large claws and collided with the coarse horns, creating a deafening sound.

The mastiff growled in a low voice that sounded like thunder.

The three creatures were fighting and attacking each other, fighting over the blossoming flowers.

During this process, they were also fiercely sniffing, desperately seizing the flower's fragrance.

White mist curled up from the top of the bronze peak. Amidst the haze, the golden spots swayed, as if there was a small sea of stars shining in the mist. It was an extremely mysterious and beautiful place.

Bang!

They touched the lush green small tree, and one of the mastiff's large claws brushed against the flower.

The wind surged as the golden vicious bird swooped down to meet the mastiff head-on. Its sharp claws fell down, wanting to tear the mastiff apart.

Before, they didn't attack each other because they were afraid of each other. But now that the flower had bloomed, they didn't hesitate to risk their lives in order to fight over it!

When the golden vicious bird flapped its wings, a few petals fell from the mastiff's large claws and floated down the bronze mountain along with the violent wind.

This place was extremely steep, so the petals wrapped in white mist quickly fell towards Chu Feng.

He raised his hand and caught one. The fragrance was so strong that it couldn't be dispersed, almost making him drunk. Upon closer inspection, there was a layer of sparkling and translucent inside the petals with golden spots.

"Pollen!"

There was a layer of pollen on the petals, flowing with luster.

Chu Feng reached out his hand and caught the four petals one after another. Two of them had a light fragrance because there was only a little pollen on them, while the other two were full of fragrance, densely covered with sparkling and translucent crystals. The fragrance was so strong that it couldn't be dispersed.

The three creatures on the top of the bronze mountain all looked down with cold eyes, and then began to fight fiercely for the petals that hadn't fallen.

Seeing this, Chu Feng grasped the petals tightly.

However, he soon found something wrong. The petals in his hand were no longer warm, and there was a kind of withering feeling. He opened his palm and found that the translucent crystals on the four petals had disappeared, and the petals had also dried up!

In an instant, they lost their luster, lost their vitality, and became yellow and withered.

What was going on?

With a little force, one of the petals turned into dust.

Chu Feng was shocked. He threw the remaining three withered petals down and shouted towards the top of the mountain, "I'll give them back to you."

Then, he decisively turned around and rushed down the mountain, no longer paying attention to these things.

Although he was in a hurry to escape, he couldn't help thinking along the way. Why did the four petals wither in an instant in his hand? This change was very strange!

When he passed by the bronze house and bronze monument, he didn't stop. He just wanted to go down the mountain as soon as possible. The mountain terrain gradually became flatter, and he could speed up.

After a long time, when Chu Feng arrived at the foot of the mountain, the sun had already set.

Fortunately, the three unusual creatures didn't chase him down. They were still fighting on the top of the mountain.

Chu Feng was covered in sweat. After such a strenuous exercise on such a high mountain, no matter how good his physique was, he still felt exhausted.

He was so tired that he sat at the foot of the mountain and gasped for breath. After a long time, he could still hear his heart beating fast. He poured water into his mouth.

Looking back at the mountain behind him, it was really like a mystery.

The bronze monument of the Western King, the mysterious bronze house, and the bronze mountain … Was the inside of the towering mountain really made of copper?

If possible, he really wanted to peel off the soil layer of this mountain and take a closer look at what was inside.

This mountain was only one of the Kunlun Mountain Range. What kind of secret was hidden in this area?

"I have to leave quickly. If those three creatures come down, it will be extremely dangerous."

There was an earthquake a few days ago, and there were many big cracks on the mountain. The foot of the mountain was no exception. Chu Feng carefully avoided the cracks when he stepped down.

Inadvertently, he saw a stone in a crack. It was more than three inches tall, square, and had a very regular shape, which was rare.

Chu Feng picked it up and continued on his way.

He didn't know if it was an illusion, but along the way, Chu Feng always felt that there was something strange in his body. It was very subtle. Occasionally, he would feel a trace of warmth flowing in his blood and flesh.

When he tried to feel it carefully, it would disappear. If he didn't care about it, it would appear inadvertently.

Was it an illusion, or was it an allergy?

He wondered if his perception was messed up.

"It started from this hand."

He opened his left hand. The first thing he felt was the palm of his left hand, but there was nothing there.

"Four petals had mysteriously withered in my left hand."

Chu Feng thought about this matter as he hurried on his way. He felt that it was not that simple. There was something strange about this matter, which made him very uneasy.

The petals used to emit white mist and specks of light. No matter how he looked at it, it was strange.

The bronze Kunlun Mountain behind him had really impacted his original concept today. It was subversive, and he couldn't help but think more.

"Those three creatures are not ordinary. They are fighting for the flower on the tree, so it should be harmless."

Although he had some misgivings, Chu Feng felt that the flower should be harmless to the body. Otherwise, why would it cause a fight between the rare beasts?

He shook his head and temporarily stopped thinking about it. He strode towards the herdsman's residential area.

Under the curtain of night, the boundless plateau was exceptionally quiet. Occasionally, the roar of a beast would come from afar, adding a sense of emptiness and desolation.

Chu Feng stayed at the herdsman's house. He decided to set off on his return journey tomorrow.

At night, he quietly read a book and at the same time, felt the trace of warmth from before. However, it was elusive, and he didn't know if there would be any changes.

After a long time, he sighed softly, "Let nature take its course."

Because, no matter how many times he tried, he found that the more he cared about it, the more he couldn't feel it. On the contrary, if he ignored it, he could vaguely feel it.

"Pollen, catalyst." Chu Feng softly read these words. He suddenly thought of something.

When they graduated and left school, Linnoy's family had sent a car to pick her up. They had vaguely mentioned these words, but it was a bit far away, so he couldn't hear it clearly.

Although they had broken up, he still wanted to send her off. However, when he saw the Lin family looking at him coldly, Chu Feng only waved his hand and left.

Slightly lost in thought, he inadvertently saw a stone beside him.

"The shape of this stone is so regular."

He weighed the stone in the tent. Although it was a cube, the edges were not angular and slightly smooth, as if it had been polished. It was slightly round.

Looking closely, there was a blurry pattern on the stone. Was it formed naturally?

The pattern was very dim, and it was easy to miss it if one didn't look carefully.

"Is it a man-made trace?"

When he was at the foot of Mount Kunlun, he didn't pay much attention to it. He just felt that it was regular, so he picked it up. Along the way, he was thinking about Mount Tong, so he absent-mindedly tossed it in his hand and brought it back.

Now, he suddenly found that there was something special about this stone.

Chu Feng washed the stone and carefully observed it under the light.

The stone was three inches high, grayish-brown, and there were some blurry patterns around it. They looked like vines, but also like natural marks. It looked very old.

"Is it an ancient stone tool left by an ancient tribe?" He guessed.
