Crack, Crack!
Lin Buzheng proceeded deeper into the Bone Mountain, stepping on the layers of bones.
The further he went, the more ancient and powerful the aura of the skeletons became.
These skeletons were at least those left behind by fourth-grade beasts. Bones of fifth-grade beasts could be seen everywhere, and even Earth-grade beasts could be seen occasionally.
These skeletons had grown together with the beasts, and had been refined thousands of times, resulting in their sturdiness. It would take at least a few hundred years, or even a thousand years, for them to completely rot away.
For some reason, Lin Buzheng's surroundings were extremely quiet along the way, without the lingering hatred of the dead beasts, nor the presence of a deathly aura.
Finally, Lin Buzheng followed the guidance of the strange summoning force, and came to a stop before a giant skeleton at the waist of the Bone Mountain.
This skeleton was over a hundred feet tall, like a small mountain that extended endlessly. The white bones were as translucent as jade, and the skull was the size of a house. It looked like the remains of some kind of demonic dragon that had died.
Crack!
In the next moment, under the influence of the mysterious power, Lin Buzheng climbed up the dragon bones and sat cross-legged on the skull. At the same time, he focused the mysterious intuition power on his eyes. The foot of the mountain and the area within a radius of nearly a hundred miles instantly appeared in his eyes.
BANG!
Not long after Lin Buzheng sat down on the dragon skeleton, a tremendous aura burst out from the foot of the Bone Mountain. At the same time, the Bone Mountain below Lin Buzheng shuddered violently.
"That's …"
Lin Buzheng stared with his eyes open wide, as his face was filled with astonishment.
As he saw, at the foot of the Bone Mountain, there was a beast over ten zhang tall and a hundred zhang long, crushing countless bones with a single step, causing the ground to tremble. The beast's aura burst out and soared into the sky, as it headed toward the Bone Mountain.
The beast's body was covered in white fur, with strong limbs. Its size was similar to a wild bull, but its claws were incredibly sharp, and its mouth was filled with two rows of sharp teeth.
Six eyes were neatly arranged on both sides of its face, emitting a powerful mental force.
Shockingly, it was a seventh rank demonic beast, Celestial!
The Celestial was rumored to possess the bloodline of the Infernal Demons. Their mental energy was extremely strong, and with just a glance, they could cause the will of Demonic Beasts or Human Race martial artists of the same cultivation realm to collapse, plunging them into endless chaos.
This type of Demonic Beast loved to eat human flesh!
Lin Buzheng sat cross-legged on the skull, watching the Celestial approach step by step, his heart cold.
Without a doubt, he was no match for the Celestial with his strength.
Lin Buzheng seemed to have already seen the tragic scene of him dying in the mouth of this demonic beast.
"What happened?"
"This Celestial doesn't seem to be interested in me."
The Celestial Celestial's soul power was so strong that it was even stronger than an ordinary Dao Venerable's.
At the same time that Lin Buzheng discovered it, the latter also discovered Lin Buzheng's presence. It lifted its ferocious and terrifying beast head and looked at Lin Buzheng.
However, the Celestial's gaze when it looked at Lin Buzheng was extremely calm. Not only did it not contain the terrifying mental energy that could disturb one's heart, but it also did not have any emotional fluctuations.
It was as if to it, Lin Buzheng was just a piece of skeleton that resembled a human or a piece of stone that was insignificant.
Rumble, rumble!
After glancing at Lin Buzheng, the Celestial lowered its head and walked toward the depths of the mountain of bones with its four claws.
"I see!"
"This Celestial doesn't have much time left. It's going to die soon …"
Lin Buzheng stared at the Celestial for a long time before he came to a realization.
Although the Celestial was an Earth-rank Demonic Beast with monstrous strength and a ferocious nature, its lifespan would eventually come to an end.
The Celestial Demonic Beast's Qi and blood were declining. Its six eyes were cloudy and its fur was withered. Although its demonic aura was soaring, it was actually extremely weak.
During the process of climbing the Bone Mountain, it had to lie down on the ground and rest for a while before it could recover its strength and continue to move forward. It was obvious that its lifespan had come to an end and it was like a lamp that had run out of oil.
In the end, the Celestial Demonic Beast spent a whole day before it reached the mountainside where Lin Buzheng was.
"Roar!"
At this point, the Celestial Demonic Beast could no longer walk. Its limbs went limp and it collapsed on the layers of bones under Lin Buzheng.
The huge demonic beast's head also lay flat on the ground. It did not even look at Lin Buzheng who was sitting next to it. Its six cloudy eyes opened with great effort and stared at the setting sun in the sky.
What a strange scene it was.
An Earth-rank demonic beast that liked to eat human flesh turned a blind eye to its prey. It lay on the ground like a harmless old cow and stared at the setting sun helplessly.
And Lin Buzheng did not attack this demonic beast that liked to eat humans and kill it when it was weak like a normal martial artist. Instead, he silently watched the setting sun with the Celestial.
Buzz!
After ten minutes, the setting sun completely fell below the horizon like blood.
Unknowingly, the six eyes of the Celestial Demonic Beast were also closed. Its mountain-like body was cold and its vitality had dissipated. It was completely dead.
"A life is gone just like that?"
Lin Buzheng whispered.
The Celestial Demonic Beast was an Earth-rank demonic beast. It had a lifespan of thousands of years. It could fly in the sky and burrow underground. It fed on Dao Venerables.
Its strength was terrifying. An adult Celestial Demonic Beast could slaughter a martial arts country.
But right now, this old Celestial Demonic Beast could not even do the simple act of climbing a mountain.
At this moment, the Heavenly Evil Beast was standing next to a warrior that it treated like an ant. It was looking at the setting sun in the sky and feeling its life fading away quickly. It could feel the shadow of death approaching. What kind of feeling did it have?
Even though the Celestial Demonic Beast was a great threat to the human race and the mighty figures of the human race had to get rid of it, Lin Buzheng watched the Celestial Demonic Beast die in front of him. He still felt extremely depressed and lost.
And inexplicably, his heartstrings were violently touched. An incomparably silent and desolate feeling rose in his heart.
This was the feeling of watching another life disappear in front of one's eyes.
It was also a feeling that Lin Buzheng had never experienced in his ten years of hurried life.
"Birth, aging, sickness, and death. Success, residence, destruction, and emptiness."
"Is this the fate that life can't escape from?"
Lin Buzheng muttered to himself. At this moment, he thought of many things.
Life was hurried. It was as beautiful as a flower, as hot as fire, and as surging as a river.
But sooner or later, the flower would wither, the fire would be extinguished, and the river would dry up.
This was the fate that life couldn't escape from. Since ancient times, even powerful Emperors and Gods were no exception.
When that day came, would Lin Buzheng be ready? What kind of mentality should he face it with?
Lin Buzheng frowned as he racked his brains.
But immediately, he realized what he was doing and laughed involuntarily.
