At this time, this place was already covered in blood fog.
Because he was in a hurry, Lu An did not ask the dozen people about the situation here ten days ago, such as how far the blood fog was. However, based on the information of the dozen people, he could speculate that the strange beast did not attack the dozen people, so there were two possibilities.
The first possibility was that the strange beast was on its last breath, lying on the ground and unable to move. The second possibility was that the strange beast had self-awareness and was deliberately avoiding humans.
However, even the dozen people could sense its aura, but at this moment, Lu An still could not sense anything strange, which made Lu An basically deny the first possibility. Even if the strange beast was already dead, he could still sense the existence of the corpse. The strength of a rank nine strange beast's body, in the degree of the surrounding death energy, would not die in ten days. In other words, Lu An basically confirmed the second possibility, that the strange beast still had self-awareness.
It was even very likely that it had a very strong self-awareness. Otherwise, it would be absolutely impossible to do this to the extent that the wolf-tiger tribe was corroded by death energy.
Whoosh!
The reason why Lu An did not think that the strange beast was flying south was because it would immediately collide with the dozen people. He quickly advanced north, and not long after, his eyes suddenly turned cold, and he immediately descended from a height of about ten thousand feet from the ground, quickly landing on the ground.
Bang!
Lu An stood on the ground, and at this moment, the huge ground around him was emitting an extremely hot aura! This was because there were many uneven stones around Lu An!
Lu An's eyes were solemn. Although these hot stones looked messy, after using his perception to envelop these stones, he could clearly see the overall shape.
A claw shape.
A three-fingered claw shape, like a bird's!
These were obviously the footprints left by a bird, and even now, the degree of heat of these footprints was extremely difficult to be released by a rank eight strange beast, let alone after ten days. In other words, these must be the footprints of a rank nine strange beast!
The direction of the footprints was north, and Lu An immediately moved, no longer hesitating and advancing north at full speed!
Sure enough, along the way, Lu An saw more and more footprints, and the degree of density slightly increased. Lu An carefully observed these footprints. In his opinion, the reason why these footprints were formed was very strange. Lu An had seen a lot of strange beasts. In the surface world, powerful strange beasts would indeed leave huge footprints when they walked on the ground. However, there was a precondition to this, and that was that there was a huge difference between the strength of the ground and the strange beast.
However, the environment of this underground world was different. The ground was extremely hard, and even Lu An would find it difficult to affect it. More importantly, the rocks in these footprints were not protruding from the ground, but formed independently. In other words, it was very likely that they had fallen off from the strange beast's body.
Lu An had never seen such a phenomenon before, but he speculated that there were only two possibilities. One was that the strange beast's physique was like this, and the other was that it was in a heavily injured state.
When it was heavily injured, it would bleed, and these footprints were most likely a sign of the Mystical Beast being heavily injured.
In this state, it was very likely that he wouldn't be able to run far!
Whoosh!
Lu An advanced at full speed. It was not easy to catch up with the Wonder Beast's ten day journey, but as long as there were footprints, there was no need to worry about getting lost.
Time flew by quickly, and Lu An followed the footprints for sixteen hours. These footprints were getting more and more concentrated, and the pattern of the rocks was obviously getting thicker and thicker. It was as if the injuries were getting worse, and more blood was flowing out. This made Lu An even more inclined to think about the possibility of him thinking.
Finally, another two hours passed.
Suddenly, Lu An's eyes turned cold, and his speed suddenly decreased. From almost full speed to a speed that was less than that of a Level 6 Heavenly Master, he stopped and landed on the ground, hiding in the blood fog. Lu An looked ahead with a serious gaze, but there was an extremely dense blood fog in front of him, and he could not see through it at all.
That's right, although he could not see through it, Lu An could sense the strange situation in front of him through the power of death. At this moment, there was a huge body lying on the ground.
The body was motionless, but Lu An was still very careful, and did not dare to approach it. Instead, he repeatedly sensed it. When he was sure that he did not sense any signs of life, only the aura of death, he gradually moved forward.
Dead.
This strange beast was already dead.
In fact, a dead strange beast did not mean much to Lu An. Firstly, he did not fight it, so he could not improve his strength. Secondly, it was impossible for him to ask anything he wanted to know from a dead strange beast. Even so, he still flew towards the strange beast, wanting to see the corpse of this strange beast with his own eyes, and see if there were any other clues.
Soon, Lu An flew directly above the strange beast. Lu An frowned slightly. Immediately, a majestic force spread out, pushing away the surrounding dense power of death, revealing an empty space.
The strange beast's corpse immediately appeared in Lu An's line of sight.
It really was a bird!
Lu An was shocked. In a natural competition, it was never the survival of the strong, but the survival of the fittest. What kind of environment would produce what kind of strange beast, and in this underground world, how could there be birds?
At this moment, the corpse in front of him was emitting a huge amount of heat, and because of this scorching heat, the corpse was in a state of being burned dry, but even so, the huge wings were still clearly visible. These wings were even larger than most of the flying strange beasts in the surface world, and there was no sign of decline. Obviously, the wings were very powerful when it was alive, how was this possible?
This strange beast fell in a forward posture, so it left a very long drag mark on the ground. Its forward posture was also due north, so it was obvious that this strange beast had a very firm goal. Despite being surrounded by death energy, this strange beast was still able to maintain such a state. Throughout the entire process, its footprints did not sway from side to side. This made Lu An very shocked at the strength of this strange beast's spiritual sense.
Lu An lowered his altitude and came to a place only a hundred feet away from the strange beast's head. The strange beast's body was 1500 feet long, and its wingspan was estimated to be more than 3000 feet. Lu An carefully observed the strange beast's corpse, and at this moment, his brows suddenly tightened!
Lu An's line of sight was completely fixed on the strange beast's head, and he saw that there was an obvious hole in the front of the skull!
This was obviously not a natural situation, but a deliberate one. Normally, Lu An would think that it was killed by other strange beasts, but when Lu An perceived that through this hole, there was actually a wing bone inserted in the inside of the skull, Lu An's brows became even tighter.
Whether it was from the strange beast's posture or the state of death, it was more likely to be suicide.
According to the current situation, Lu An inferred that the most likely possibility was that this strange beast felt that its divine sense was seriously eroded, and fell to the ground in a struggle with the death power. This strange beast understood that it could not hold on any longer, so in order to avoid becoming a lunatic out of control, it chose to commit suicide.
Lu An took a deep breath, even if he himself had the death power, he had to admit that the death power was not a kind force. This kind of force had a great impact on the divine sense, even if it was a Rank Nine strange beast, under the circumstances of not being attacked, it could be forced to commit suicide by the death power, which was enough to show how terrible the death power was.
Lu An repeatedly checked the corpse, but in the end, he did not find anything of value. He took a deep breath, unwilling to accept the harvest in front of him.
Thus, Lu An turned his head and cast his gaze to the north once again.
This strange beast was heading north all the way, completely in a straight line without any deviation. This was definitely deliberate. Under the situation of being attacked by the death power, it could still maintain in the blood fog for eighteen hours without deviating from its direction, indicating that this strange beast was very persistent in the north, even using its life to forcibly hold on.
Just what was in the north?
Lu An's brows tightened, he did not guess, but immediately set off towards the north at full speed!
If he did not figure things out, he would not stop.
Lu An hurried along at full speed, at the same time, time flew by. In this state, another twelve hours quickly passed, and at this time, Lu An's body suddenly shook, his speed clearly slowing down!
He could not perceive the aura of other life forms, nor the existence of other life forms. The surrounding earth was not the same, but his expression became very dignified, and his eyes became very cautious!
The reason for this was very simple, it was the change in the concentration of the surrounding death power.
At this moment, the concentration had far surpassed the peak of Rank Eight, and even faintly entered the Rank Nine realm!
