The ground trembled slightly, and the sound of footsteps grew closer and closer. Immediately, five huge beasts appeared in the surroundings almost at the same time, and a violent and chaotic aura filled the surrounding space. Another four Spirit Beasts, and a Heavenly Beast that was many times more terrifying than the Spirit Beasts, appeared together magnificently and shockingly, all of their eyes locked onto Ye Wuchen. These ferocious beasts, which were extremely difficult for ordinary people to see, seemed to be everywhere in this place. Ye Wuchen's eyes swept over them one by one, and his brows furrowed. Would there be any powerful Divine Beasts in this dark area that was filled with strange things?
However, the brutal momentum of these five giant beasts did not last long, and almost at the same time, they stopped approaching, and then began to slowly retreat, their limbs even trembling slightly. When the small black snake shot towards Ye Wuchen again, they seemed to be greatly frightened, and ran away at a speed that was many times faster than when they came … including the Wind Heavenly Beast that was covered in green light.
Their exaggerated reaction, once again proved the fearsomeness of this Soul Stealer, and Ye Wuchen narrowly avoided it again. At this time, a black shadow flashed in front of him, and a delicate body leaned on his waist. It was Oculum. Her appearance did not make Ye Wuchen feel relieved, but instead made his heart beat faster.
The Soul Stealer's speed was really comparable to lightning, and it once again took a detour, but it was avoided three times in a row. It changed its target, and shot towards Oculum who had just appeared. Oculum's eyes turned, and suddenly a black light flashed in them for a moment. Suddenly, the Soul Stealer's body suddenly stiffened, and its leaping body fell straight down in mid-air, motionless.
Ye Wuchen did not have the mind to care about its life, and grabbed Oculum's shoulder, and asked eagerly: "Where is Cher? Isn't she with you? "
Only Oculum came to his side, and Ningxue was not there.
Oculum shook her head. Just like Ye Wuchen, when she was teleported here, she was the only one around.
Ye Wuchen's heartbeat suddenly quickened. This place was obviously filled with Magical Beasts, and all of them were powerful and ferocious. Ningxue was alone … It was unimaginable!
He gritted his teeth and forced himself to remain calm. He grabbed Oculum's hand tightly. "Oculum, can you find Cher's location?"
Without hesitation, Oculum extended his hand and pointed to the east. When she was transported here, the first thing she sensed was Ningxue's weak aura, which seemed to be very far away from her. After flying in that direction for a while, she sensed Ye Wuchen's aura and immediately turned around and rushed towards him.
Ye Wuchen felt slightly relieved and said anxiously, "Quick! Let's go, otherwise Cher might be in danger. "
Oculum grabbed Ye Wuchen and rushed to the east at the fastest speed. The humid wind whistled past his ears, but it could not calm his undulating heart. When it came to matters related to Ningxue's safety, he could not keep calm at all. Just as he had said to Ningxue, she was different from all the important people around him. She was half his life. If something happened to her, he would also be half dead.
Not long after they left, the motionless Soul Stealer cautiously opened its eyes. After looking around a few times, it panicked and moved in the opposite direction of them at the fastest speed. Finally, it drilled into the unknown underbrush and hid its aura perfectly. The Soul Stealer had another characteristic, it was timid. To be more specific, it bullied the weak and feared the strong.
Insects and beasts were constantly roaring in his ears, showing that there were all kinds of beasts densely distributed here. It was not as quiet as where he was before. Now that he thought about it, the silence there was most likely due to the existence of the Soul Stealer, which scared away all the nearby magical beasts, and the cursed thunderwolf wandered over at an untimely time.
"Oculum, hurry up."
Tong Xin's heart was also burning with anxiety as she felt his anxiety. But this was already her fastest speed. Ningxue's current position was really far away from them. Being able to sense her existence was already the limit of Oculum's ability.
"If something really happens to Ningxue, even if you are an Extreme Flame Heavenly Dragon, I will make you disappear from this world by hook or by crook!" Ye Wuchen gritted his teeth. She unconsciously tightened her grip on Oculum's hand, causing her to feel a little pain.
With a wave of her small hand, a black light mercilessly cut a giant wild lion in front of her into two. Along the way, she had already killed more than ten of them at her fastest speed, not daring to waste any time.
If one was high up in the sky, they would see Oculum and Ye Wuchen moving at an extremely fast speed towards the center of the vast black land.
Every second that passed was a kind of torture for Ye Wuchen. A short minute made him feel as long as a year. But no matter how anxious he was, he did not dare to completely lose his cool. The trees in front of him started to become sparse. As they continued to move forward, even the beasts' roars and insects' roars started to become softer, until they completely disappeared. Apart from the sound of the wind in his ears, there was no other sound.
There must be a reason for this abnormality. Ye Wuchen slowly raised his eyebrows and said in a low voice, "Oculum, do you feel anything unusual?"
Oculum looked sideways and shook his head in confusion.
"Be careful," Ye Wuchen said cautiously.
What was the reason that these powerful magical beasts were unwilling to go near? And where was the lost temple that the Extreme Flame Heavenly Dragon mentioned? Ye Wuchen concentrated and pondered.
As the trees became sparser, Oculum suddenly slowed down. Ye Wuchen perked up and asked, "Are we there?"
Oculum nodded and went around the last tree. Suddenly, a dilapidated building that looked like an ancient castle appeared in front of them. In this strange area where magical beasts ran rampant, the appearance of this building had a different kind of visual impact. Oculum also stopped here and turned to look at him, revealing a very sweet and beautiful smile. Ningxue's aura was right in front of him, completely unharmed.
"Is this the place? Let's go in quickly, "Oculum's expression put Ye Wuchen's worried heart at ease, and he quickly led her inside.
This ancient castle did not have a main door, and the inside was dilapidated at a glance. Just as Ye Wuchen was about to step in, he suddenly stopped and looked up at the five blurry words …
The lost temple.
After a moment of hesitation, he quickly walked in. To him, nothing was more important than Ningxue's safety.
The temple was empty, and Ningxue sat quietly in the corner, hugging a snow-white ball in her arms. She gently stroked it as she waited for her brother to find her.
When Ningxue was teleported here, she immediately saw this little snow-white ball curled up in the middle of the empty temple, sleeping. The fur on its body was very white, as flawless as her skin and hair. Almost instinctively, Ningxue squatted down and hugged this little creature in her arms. Pure white things were always so attractive to her. When she got closer, she realized that not only was its entire body snow-white, its body also emitted a fragrant smell, making her feel intoxicated just by smelling it.
She had fallen in love with this fluffy white little creature, and this little creature seemed to have fallen in love with this girl with pure white hair. After being awakened, it raised its head and looked at her for a while, but not only did it not reject her, it moved slightly in her arms, changed to a more comfortable position, and then continued to sleep. That intoxicating fragrance gradually wiped away the uneasiness in her heart. So she just hugged it like this, quietly waiting for her brother to appear.
Hearing the footsteps, Ningxue's body nervously shrunk. Seeing that it was Ye Wuchen, she excitedly shouted, "Brother!" Just as she was about to run over, there was suddenly a movement in her arms. The quiet little creature suddenly opened its eyes, jumped out of her arms, and landed on the ground.
Ye Wuchen saw its full appearance at a glance. This was a very small little fox, its body was only a pitiful ten or so centimeters long, and its head was not even as big as Ningxue's fist. Its entire body was snow-white and flawless, without a trace of impurity, only its small eyes and nose were pitch-black. And when one saw it, the first thing they would notice was its tail, that was definitely not a fox's tail, it was also snow-white and fluffy, but its length was actually more than twice its body length, and its shape … made Ye Wuchen think of a dragon's tail at first glance.
At this moment, this strange little fox had a pair of sharp little ears, and its round eyes were staring straight at Ye Wuchen, a light that he could not understand flashed in its eyes.
Just as Ye Wuchen was about to walk over and hug Ningxue, in an instant, a huge, almost tangible force came from in front of him, and just this force alone made his chest feel as if it had been hit by a heavy hammer, his body flew backwards, and fell at the door.
"Brother!" Ningxue exclaimed, and ran in his direction. And at this moment, that little fox also shot towards Ye Wuchen, who had yet to get up, its small body drawing a white bolt of lightning, its speed so fast that it seemed to have disappeared.
In the nick of time, Oculum met this little fox with a long tail, his face showing a serious expression that only appeared when he was facing the Extreme Flame Heavenly Dragon.
There was a collision, and the ground rumbled. As black and white collided, the ground split open with a crack that was tens of meters long, and this "Lost Temple" was split right down the middle. The dilapidated hall was also on the verge of collapse due to the violent shaking. Countless cracks of various sizes appeared on the roof, and sand and dust were falling down one after another.
Oculum's body flew backwards, passing through the wall, and only stabilizing himself tens of meters away from the temple. The little fox was also sent flying by the rebounding force, breaking through the wall and flying in the opposite direction from Oculum. Ye Wuchen quickly got up, and grabbed Ningxue's arm, "Let's go quickly!"
He finally understood why there was not a single magical beast in the surroundings. That little fox that did not seem to be dangerous at all actually had terrifying power that was not inferior to Oculum … What kind of creature was this!
Could it be the one that the Extreme Flame Heavenly Dragon wanted him to find? Because in this strange building called "Lost Temple", it was the only one that existed.
But at least he could be sure that this strange fox had great enmity towards him, and only towards him. He could not understand the source of this hostility.
