Words:1748Update:22/06/26 12:24:45
It was a peaceful morning in the Wangyou Forest.
The sunlight shone on the grass through the gaps between the leaves, and the round and translucent dewdrops on the grass reflected a sparkling luster under the sunlight. A gentle breeze blew past, and the leaves suddenly swayed. The dew on the tips of the leaves fell to the ground and moistened the soil.
The wind brought the fragrance of the trees and leaves into Lin Huang's tent.
In the tent, Lin Huang woke up early. He had a good night's sleep. Although he was worried about Leng Yuexin, since it had already happened, there was no need for him to worry anymore.
After having some breakfast, Lin Huang kept the tent and set off again.
This time, he chose Bai and the Viridian Wolf as his summoning monsters.
If he summoned Charcoal, monsters below silver-level would avoid it but gold-level monsters would not be affected by Lin Huang's Dragon Power. Moreover, there might be a Transcendent monster.
The last time Lin Huang was mistaken as a descendant of the God's Blood, a Transcendent monster came after him. If a Transcendent monster found out that Charcoal was a dragon-blood monster, he had no idea what kind of trouble it would cause.
Moreover, riding on a flying mount in the sky of the Wangyou Forest without any cover would make it easy for them to be attacked by powerful monsters.
However, the Viridian Wolf was different. It had an acute sense of smell and could avoid danger in advance. With its speed, it would only take two hours to cover a distance of three hundred kilometers.
Lin Huang and Bai rode on the back of the Viridian Wolf and stopped along the way. Every time it smelled a powerful monster, the Viridian Wolf would take a detour.
When it was almost noon, Lin Huang finally arrived at the first location where Leng Yuexin was.
After activating his Blood Hunt skill, Lin Huang picked up the scent of Leng Yuexin and Li Yanxing. He followed the scent and found a giant rock.
It was a black rock that was more than 10 meters tall. Half of it was buried in the ground and only the top half of it could be seen.
The scent was the strongest near the giant rock. Lin Huang was sure that Leng Yuexin and the rest had stopped by the giant rock and even touched it.
After circling around the boulder, Lin Huang found nothing.
However, for such a huge boulder to appear in the middle of the Wangyou Forest, it was rather out of place. If it was a meteorite that fell from the sky, there should be craters around it, but the surroundings were flat.
With doubts in his mind, Lin Huang opened the Heart Network again and began reading about the gigantic rock.
There was a lot of information about the stone on the internet, and it used to be a hot topic in Division7.
The reason why this black boulder had become a hot topic on the Internet was also very strange. It was because someone had posted that this boulder could not be moved. Many people came to try after reading the post. Even the top ten Gold Hunters on the Gold Hunter Leaderboard tried, but none of them could move the stone.
Therefore, the black boulder became a hot topic in Division7 for a period of time. Many people had different guesses about the origin of the boulder.
Many people said that it was a meteorite from outer space, some said that a Transcendent had moved it there out of boredom, and some said that it was a sealing stone that sealed an ominous place …
After reading many speculations, Lin Huang realized that it had nothing to do with Transcendent monsters. He turned off the internet and searched around the area. Still, he found nothing and left.
Ten minutes later, Lin Huang and Bai appeared at the second place where Leng Yuexin stayed.
He activated his Blood Hunting skill again and found where Leng Yuexin and the rest were.
It was a scorched ground, and there was not a single blade of grass growing on it. There were cracks that looked like spider webs that extended for tens of kilometers along the long and narrow area. There were slight bumps on the scorched ground where the cracks were. It felt like it was cracking from the inside.
Lin Huang found a crack that was the size of a palm and threw a small stone into it. However, he did not hear the sound of the stone falling into the ground, so he could not tell how deep the crack was.
He then checked on the Heart Network again, but there was nothing about it.
"It seems like the cracks only appeared recently …" Lin Huang took a few photos of the cracks and left after searching the area for a while.
Half an hour later, Lin Huang found the third and fourth place where Leng Yuexin and the rest were. There were strange cracks on the ground that were the same as the second place. Other than that, Lin Huang did not find anything else.
After taking photos of the two locations, Lin Huang left.
This time, he headed straight to the last place where Leng Yuexin went missing.
In less than 20 minutes, the Viridian Wolf brought Lin Huang and Bai to their final destination.
Lin Huang jumped down from the Viridian Wolf's back and activated his Blood Hunting skill again. He followed the scent and looked for the last place where Leng Yuexin was.
About 300 meters north of the location given by the mission card, Lin Huang found the last place where Leng Yuexin and the rest were.
It was a gigantic waterfall and there was a huge pond under it. Leng Yuexin and Li Yanxing's scent disappeared near the waterfall.
"Is there a trap nearby or is there another world behind the waterfall?" Lin Huang frowned and looked around the waterfall. He did not see anything unusual.
After recalling the Viridian Wolf, Lin Huang summoned the Specter.
The Specter was a spirit type. Similar to the Dark Crow, it was a spirit without a physical body.
"Specter, check what's behind the waterfall." Lin Huang instructed the Specter.
The black Specter floated on the surface of the lake and soon, it disappeared through the waterfall. After a while, it came out of the waterfall.
"Is there a cave behind the waterfall?" Lin Huang asked.
The Specter shook its head.
"There's no cave?" Lin Huang was confused. "There doesn't seem to be any other place around here …"
Lin Huang looked at the surface of the water and suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind. "Could it be under the pool?"
"Spectre, go underwater and see if there's a tunnel that leads to the underground!" Lin Huang gave a new order immediately.
The Specter disappeared into the water after receiving the order. It did not even cause any ripples on the water.
Lin Huang sat by the pond and waited anxiously. If there were no clues at the bottom of the pond, he had no idea how he could find Leng Yuexin.
The Specter disappeared for more than half an hour. If Xiao Hei did not inform him that the Specter was dead, he would have thought that the Specter was killed by something.
After more than 40 minutes, the Specter finally came out of the water.
"Is there a cave underwater?" Lin Huang asked immediately when he saw him.
The Specter nodded.
"That should be it!" Lin Huang was sure that Leng Yuexin and the rest had gone to the bottom of the pond.
