Whoosh …
A loud sound came from the still lake. Wang Zhong could faintly see a massive black shadow dozens of meters away. It was moving slowly and emitted a hollow sound, as if it was breathing in the water. Wang Zhong could sense the aura of at least a level-7 dimensional creature from this deep-water monster. When it slowly swam past Wang Zhong, it seemed to pause for a moment and sized up this strange little thing that could emit golden light. Fortunately, this monster seemed to have a mild temper and did not have any hostility. After circling for a while, it leisurely swam into the distance.
Wang Zhong secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He was in such deep waters and had to resist the terrifying water pressure and massive buoyancy. It was rather inconvenient for him to move. If he was targeted by such a monster, he would really be in danger.
Gradually, the light at the bottom of the lake grew brighter, and the surrounding scenery became clearer. A topographic map of the bottom of the lake rapidly appeared in his mind. As the topographic map became clearer, an invisible shock rapidly invaded Wang Zhong's thoughts … Finally, as the topographic map of the bottom of the lake slowly pieced together in his mind, there was a hum. It was just like the image left behind by the Holy Saint Teacher in the Phoenix Mountain ruins. A complete image and terrifying shock appeared in Wang Zhong's mind.
At the bottom of the mysterious lake, there seemed to be traces of a pair of huge wings that had been scorched black!
The shape of the wings was simply too special. Even the charred marks could be seen. Unlike the distinct feathers of ordinary birds, these wings did not have the texture of feathers. They were like a pair of wings made of flesh. They were exactly the same as the winged gods that Wang Zhong had seen in the image left behind by the Holy Saint Teacher!
The only difference was that the charred marks on the wings in front of him were unimaginably massive. They were thousands of meters long and were imprinted in the void, but they did not disappear even after a long time. Even though they had been destroyed, the remnant power that was emitted from them, which had experienced countless years, was still able to shock Wang Zhong's soul, causing him to tremble involuntarily.
What was this? Where was he? Dimensional secret realm? Dimensional crack? Or was he still at the bottom of the mysterious lake?
Suddenly, Wang Zhong understood something. His body shot up like a rocket. Not long after, he burst out of the water with a bang. He was still in a lake, but it was not the one he had entered. He had unknowingly entered the fragment world and was invaded by the remnant consciousness of the fragment world. If he continued to descend, he would forever sleep at the bottom of the lake.
Wang Zhong took a deep breath and calmed his emotions. Regardless of how he was going to get out, at least he had successfully entered. The entire space was like a massive suction cup that silently absorbed his life force and Soul Power. His divine cells formed automatic defenses to resist this strange situation. There was an 80% to 90% chance that this was the self-survival response of an ownerless world fragment. Thus, one could imagine how terrifying its previous owner was.
He looked into the distance and saw that his surroundings were barren. However, Wang Zhong quickly discovered that there seemed to be an obvious light in the east. Even though it was extremely far away from him, he could still clearly see its existence. Its outline was not natural and seemed to be a man-made building. It seemed to be the center of this dimensional secret realm.
It was a pity that he didn't know the exact location of Grai's drop. Wanting to search for a person in such a vast world was akin to searching for a needle in a haystack. Wang Zhong decided to head towards the central building first. If Grai was still alive, he might have discovered that place and rushed over. Even if he wasn't, Wang Zhong could use that place as a focal point and spread out in all directions to search for Grai. That would be much better than searching aimlessly.
This dimensional world was extremely strange. There was a scorching sun and a bright moon hovering above his head, one bright and one dark, seemingly fixed in the sky. Wang Zhong had already hurried for half a day, yet the two of them had not changed their positions at all. It seemed as though they had no intention of changing day and night, or changing the day and night. Other than that, there would be various kinds of inexplicable lightning flashes and thunder rolls in the sky from time to time. Thick lightning bolts as thick as mountains would descend from the sky like sharp swords, instantly turning the place into a sea of flames … In the distance, one could even see a wantonly tornado sweeping across the ground. The various strange phenomena caused the entire world to appear chaotic and irritable.
The uneasiness in Wang Zhong's heart grew stronger. He did not dare to use his Soul Power and naturally could not increase his speed. He continued to travel for a few hours, but the outline of the building was still far away. On the other hand, he made more and more discoveries along the way.
The spiritual influence here was abnormally rich. Not only did it far surpass that of the Holy Land, it could not even compare to the spiritual influence in the Mizobudapi World, which surprised Wang Zhong. However, this rich spiritual influence was not gentle. Instead, it emitted a strong sense of mania and violence, as if endless energy had gone out of control. The entire world could collapse in this chaos at any time and be completely blown into pieces by this energy that had gone out of control.
At the same time, he also realized that this seemed to be a world that people had once lived in. Wang Zhong had seen more than one field that was clearly neatly planned. Even though it had been a long time and was completely barren and scorched, there were still traces of human cultivation. Wang Zhong even saw a few mud houses. Even though they were so dilapidated that only a few remnants of the walls were left, it proved that people had indeed lived here. Furthermore, the dilapidated mud houses were very similar to the architectural style of the Octopus people. Wang Zhong even saw a few corpses of the Octopus people.
Although the corpses had long withered and were not humanoid, Wang Zhong had a certain understanding of the bone structure of the Octopus people thanks to what he had seen in Warlock Saint Sauron's laboratory. At least, he could confirm that his judgment of these corpses was not wrong. It was just that it was difficult to judge when they had died.
This secret realm had definitely been conquered by the Octopus people before. Could the current barren land be related to the massive charred figure with the wings of a god that he had seen before entering? This world had been attacked by the gods with wings, and an unimaginable battle had erupted, causing the rules of the world to be in chaos? Wang Zhong increasingly felt that the things he had seen in the images left behind by the Holy Saint were extraordinary.
As time passed, Wang Zhong even had a strange feeling that was both unfamiliar and familiar at the same time. After thinking for a long time, he finally remembered that it was a bit like the lake where he had met Uncle Zhang in the Holy City …
Just as he was talking about corpses, Wang Zhong saw more than a dozen corpses. Furthermore, they were genuine humans …
There were more than a dozen soldiers in the Holy City Army uniforms. Their flesh and blood had dried up, leaving only a layer of skin wrapped around their bones. They were scattered all over the ground. They were well-equipped and carried several small instruments with them. These were the dimensional locators and long-distance communication devices of the Holy City Army.
Needless to say, they were definitely the group of people sent by the frontline base to explore this dimensional secret realm. All of them had collapsed nearby. It was obvious that these ordinary Heroic Souls could not last in this world for too long. They had just entered this space and traveled a few kilometers before their Soul Power, flesh, and blood were completely sucked dry by the suction force here.
Wang Zhong went forward to check on the locators and communication devices. These were specially used to determine one's position in an unknown dimensional world. However, at that moment, there were drifting snowflakes on all the screens, and his earphones were filled with rustling noises. Just as he had guessed, these machines were not damaged, but they were restricted by the chaotic rules of this world. As a result, they could not receive any signals and could not transmit any signals. They were equivalent to pieces of scrap metal.
These military supplies were all good stuff. In any case, his space crystal was big enough. Wang Zhong casually put them in. Perhaps he would have a chance to use them in the future.
As he continued to walk forward, he saw a few scattered human corpses. They were in the same state as the previous ones. They had been sucked dry by this world and turned into corpses. The good news was that he still did not see Grai.
At that moment, he could gradually see the specific outline of the target in the center.
It was a rather ancient castle. There were no tall city walls around it. It seemed that the ruler of the Octopus people here did not need city walls to carry out some kind of defense. There were many domed towers in the city that were tall and imposing. This was the iconic architectural style of the Octopus people. There seemed to be trash everywhere outside the city. Some of them were shining and were abnormally eye-catching. It looked like there were messy piles of things everywhere, but when he got closer, he realized that it was not a pile of trash, but the remains of countless Octopus people … It seemed that all the Octopus people in this secret realm had died here.
It seemed as if all the Octopus people in this secret realm had gathered together and died here. The skeletons around them were piled up as high as a small hill. Not only were there Octopus people's skeletons, there were also the skeletons of many massive creatures here. Wang Zhong had seen giant two-headed dragons outside the Imperial City, as well as giant frost snakes. There were many skeletons here, and they were relatively small. Wang Zhong even saw the skeletons of a creature that was large enough to scare people to death on the east side of the castle. It was hundreds of meters long, and its skeleton was as large as a towering mountain. There were still remnants of the aura of this terrifying creature when it was alive. It was unimaginably powerful! Other than the extremely powerful skeletons, most of the other skeletons had already dried up. When the wind blew, they scattered into particles or ashes. The sky was filled with a haze formed by the ashes and did not disperse for a long time.
Meanwhile, the things that shone with light just now were broken divine swords. It seemed that even divine swords could not escape the crazy thirst for energy in this world. All their energy had been absorbed. Although they still had some fluorescence, it was mostly the light that came from special materials. They were no longer as radiant as the Mizobudapi divine swords in the past.
The entire world was wreaking havoc. Thunder roared and lightning flashed, and hurricanes ran amok. However, only the surroundings of this castle were not affected by the bad weather at all.
It was quiet and cold here. The wind was mixed with traces of coolness and a gloomy aura of death.
Woo woo woo woo …
As the wind blew, it was as if waves of low and angry whimpers could gradually be heard in this deathly silent space.
It was as if they were accusing and cursing. They were filled with endless despair and lamentation, as well as trembling fear.
If it was someone else, they might be frightened by such a deathly silent atmosphere, but Wang Zhong did not feel anything. Back then, he had seen more dead people in the Headless Canyon than this. The aura of death and resentment were also stronger, but he did not care, let alone these people. He was more worried about Grai's safety. At this time, since they had reached their destination, Wang Zhong directly released the Headless Knight. The Headless Knight could run faster on a horse, and it was mainly because he was strong enough that he was not too afraid of the strange suction force of this world. If it were Salamander or the others who were slightly weaker, summoning the Headless Knight would probably be a waste of energy. They would probably be sucked into this world soon.
Being in this world where the aura of death was rampant, the Headless Knight actually felt like a fish in water. He could absorb the aura of death and resentment that filled the air around him and turn them into his own energy. His energy consumption was actually on par with the suction force of this world.
Feeling this, Wang Zhong also heaved a sigh of relief. It would be faster to have more people to help. The two of them immediately split up and searched separately. Let's get to work!
Wang Zhong originally thought that it would be a long and troublesome search. Where Grai had fallen into this world, whether he had discovered this castle, and so on were all mysteries. A slow and aimless search was no different from looking for a needle in a haystack. Therefore, Wang Zhong was really not confident about finding Grai. However, he did not expect to see Grai when he had just started to search the periphery of this castle.
Although he did not know how that guy found this castle, he was indeed outside the castle at this time, lying motionless on the ground. After being discovered by the Headless Knight, Wang Zhong hurriedly rushed over. After using his Soul Power, he finally heaved a sigh of relief. He was not dead!
However, although he was not dead, he was not much different from being dead. At this time, Grai's body was shriveled and bloodless. His skin was protruding with greenish-purple meridians all over his body. His skin was abnormally dry, like a dried shell. If it were not for the fact that he could sense the remaining aura, he would really be no different from a dead person.
Wang Zhong was a little at a loss. He was not a gourmet. How could he treat such serious injuries?
"Lao Wang, you can try feeding him blood." Simba, who was in the Soul Sea, suddenly said. He was also having a headache staying in the Soul Sea. It was not easy for him to come to a world without outsiders, but he did not dare to come out to take a breather. The strange suction force in this world was too terrifying. Simba did not want to become a clown corpse. "Isn't Grai a member of the Blood Race? His life force is much more tenacious than ordinary people. "
Wang Zhong was overjoyed and could not help but praise Simba. At critical times, Simba was still reliable. He cut his wrist with his finger, and blood dripped into Grai's lips. Brother, you must hold on!
In just four or five seconds of respite, a miracle happened.
Wang Zhong could see that Grai's chapped lips rapidly became plump under the nourishment of the blood. Immediately after, his lips squirmed slightly, and from his slightly opened mouth, Wang Zhong could clearly see two sharp teeth that were not very long shooting out at a speed visible to the naked eye. Wang Zhong hurriedly moved his wrist closer to make it easier for Grai to suck.
