The Companion Beast chased after them as Zhou Wen and company desperately fled down the glacier. Thankfully, with the glacier as cover, the Companion Beast's attack was somewhat hindered.
"Zhou Wen, don't tell me you are trying to use the terrain to stall for time?" Nine Yang's body released the Sun Divine Light like a volcano eruption, repelling the pursuing phantom.
"No, there's another Companion Beast down there. Perhaps that thing can save our lives." As Zhou Wen spoke, he had already rushed to the side of the pool.
"There's another Companion Beast?" Nine Yang and Xiao were first taken aback when they heard Zhou Wen's words before they immediately reacted.
Could it be that the Parasitized Companion Beast isn't dead? After Nine Yang's first thought, he immediately thought of another possibility. He continued, "Which one is the Parasitized Companion Beast?"
"I don't know," Zhou Wen said as he plunged into the pool.
Nine Yang and Xiao rushed down as well. The Companion Beast that chased after them struck the pool with terrifying force, blasting apart the pool and the nearby glacier, forming a huge crater.
The pool wasn't deep to begin with, so it was directly blasted through. The strange plant was exposed. Zhou Wen and company suffered immense pressure in the water as they were smashed into the glacier beside them.
The surrounding glacier shattered. Only the place where the strange plant was remained intact. The plant and the bee in the fruit weren't affected.
Zhou Wen and company crawled out of the ice pit and prepared to fight, but they realized that the Companion Beast was floating in the air. It didn't continue attacking. Instead, it was staring at the bee in the strange plant.
"They are indeed related," Nine Yang said.
"I never expected the Parasitized Companion Beast to not die. I just wonder which of the two of them is a Companion Beast born from the planet itself." Xiao looked at the bee and then at the Companion Beast in the air. A glint flashed in his eyes as though he had discovered something.
In fact, Nine Yang had also discovered Xiao's discovery.
The bee was holding a tiny trumpet in its claws. No matter how he looked at it, it didn't seem like something a bee should have. It was likely an external object.
According to the Saint Deity, the escaped Companion Beast had accidentally taken away something before parasitizing the planet.
Although the Saint Deity didn't say what it was, it was very likely this tiny trumpet.
Of course, this was only their guess, and it might not be accurate.
The Companion Beast that was chasing seemed to be afraid of the tiny bee. It floated in midair and didn't come down. It kept staring at the tiny bee, its gaze focused on the tiny loudspeaker.
It didn't move, and neither did Zhou Wen and company. Nine Yang and Xiao didn't dare move as they waited for an opportunity.
Zhou Wen hoped that he could stall for time until Tsukuyomi finished absorbing it. When that happened, he wouldn't have any qualms about fighting or escaping. He wouldn't be as restrained as he was now.
"Are you hiding something from me?" With Zhou Wen's sharp observation skills, how could he not realize that the Companion Beast had been looking at the tiny megaphone?
Furthermore, Nine Yang and Xiao were also looking at Little Mouth, intentionally or unintentionally. This made Zhou Wen even more certain that they knew something.
Nine Yang pondered for a moment before saying, "At this point, there's actually no need to hide it from you. According to what we know, when the Companion Beast passed through the Mythical battlefield, it accidentally brought something into the planet. As the planet itself is protected by the laws of the universe, it's difficult for even a Heaven-realm existence to forcefully open the planet unless the Companion Beast inside the planet is born. Therefore, no one can take it out. "
What was it that the Companion Beast brought in? Zhou Wen was extremely curious.
He now roughly knew that Earth had once had a Mythical Era. In that era, countless powerful lifeforms had fought on Earth or even in the universe.
However, for some unknown reason, these powerful existences either vanished or sealed themselves.
According to the information Zhou Wen already knew, the dimensional zones on Earth were very likely open in the Mythical Era. Later, they were sealed for some unknown reason. Only when the dimensional storms descended in modern times did the sealed dimensional zones open again.
Therefore, Zhou Wen had always been curious about what happened in the Mythical Era.
Of course, this was only his speculation. Only the lifeforms that had experienced that era knew if that was the case.
However, even an existence like Grim Demon, who had experienced that era, didn't know how the final Mythical Battle ended.
Perhaps only an existence like The Thearch truly knows what happened in the final moments of the Mythical Era. Zhou Wen had always felt that The Thearch definitely knew a lot of things.
An existence like The Thearch still made Zhou Wen feel like a bottomless abyss that was unfathomable.
In the past, when Zhou Wen was weak, he felt that The Thearch was very strong. Now that he could fight Calamity-grade creatures, he didn't change his previous thoughts.
In fact, the stronger he was, the more he found The Thearch's strength unbelievable.
That kind of wish power was a heaven-defying existence. Even a Heaven-realm domain paled in comparison.
"I don't know." Nine Yang shook his head and said, "The news we obtained is that the Companion Beast brought in something very important, but we don't know what it is. Now, we suspect that it's the little trumpet in the bee's claws."
"If it's really the little trumpet, doesn't that mean that the little bee is the parasitic Companion Beast? The fellow we fought is a native of this planet?" Zhou Wen frowned.
"If the little trumpet is really that thing, this guess is very likely." Xiao had been observing the Companion Beast in the sky the entire time. Midway, he suddenly changed the topic. "Be careful. That fellow can't hold back any longer."
Indeed, just as Xiao finished speaking, the Companion Beast rushed down. Its target was very obvious. It wasn't any of the three of them, but the little bee in the fruit of the plant.
The Companion Beast stepped down, and the light on its foot was as dazzling as the sun. It was none other than the Sun God Beam that it had imitated from Nine Yang.
Although the scorching power of the Sun God Beam wasn't enough, its destructive power was even more terrifying than when Nine Yang used it.
The little bee in the fruit was still lying there as though it hadn't woken up. Even when the Companion Beast's sun-like foot stepped on the fruit, the little bee remained motionless.
Boom!
A powerful force struck the fruit, triggering a terrifying explosion. Even with Zhou Wen and company's strength, they couldn't help but retreat from the shockwave produced by the explosion.
