Chapter 1503 - Unmatched Ancient Beast
Everyone stopped. All of them were shocked, feeling that this was inconceivable, staring at this restricted land!
Even though they had heard rumors about this place, how many of them really saw it before?
It was rumored that there was an ancient beast sleeping in Heavenly Beast Forest, its strength matchless, an ultimate existence all heavenly beasts would worship.
However, regardless of whether it was Imperial Pass or the other side’s creatures, few knew its true origins.
Where everyone was standing, the grass was fresh and clean like jade, sparkling green and shining, rich with life essence energy, while up ahead, it was extremely barren, entirely different.
“Number Two Under Heaven?!” Someone couldn’t help but cry out.
This mountain region’s environment was extremely strange, but it wasn’t the reason why everyone shivered with fear. The main reason was still because of that creature.
Everyone was like Shi Hao, a bit petrified. They stood over there, looking towards that stone mountain where not a blade of grass grew, watching the surging immortal energy, as well as the creature in midair.
That creature’s entire body was covered in silver scales, looking like a Pangolin, and also like an ancient crocodile. However, it was even more robust, its limbs thick and forceful.
Of course, there was no way it was a Pangolin, nor was it an ancient crocodile. There were a pair of dragon horns on its head, and its head also greatly resembled a True Dragon.
It wasn’t a crocodile head, nor was it any other type of fierce beast. It was actually a type of dragon!
Apart from this, there was a pair of enormous wings on its back, covering the sky and earth, entirely silvery-white, also covered in endless scales, glistening and dazzling.
This creature really was terrifying. Its figure was ridiculously large, exceeding all the giant stone mountains.
When its wings spread, they involuntarily stirred up primal chaos, hazy and terrifying. Moreover, immortal dao light streams were released, making even the void tremble in response!
This was an extremely powerful creature, just floating there alone made one feel as if they couldn’t endure that type of power. There were actually Self Release Realm cultivators who were shivering, wishing to bow down!
This was a completely uncontrollable process.
One had to understand that this creature’s eyes were closed, floating in midair, all of its essence energy restrained, not a bit of aura leaking out. It could be said that its vitality was completely sealed.
The immortal energy, primal chaos light, and others were all irregular scenes resulting from it staying here for a long time!
Just what kind of creature was this exactly? Its life energy was restrained, as if completely petrified, floating in the air, yet it still made one feel intimidated.
This was especially the case when a few great cultivators couldn’t hold back their urge to pry into this creature, wishing to examine it. They immediately coughed out large amounts of blood.
Pu!
In that instant, more than ten Self Release Realm cultivators fell weak onto the ground. They were the most powerful individuals of this group of cultivators, their skills making them bold, wishing to pry into and explore this place.
As a result, they immediately sensed that there seemed to be a great silver furnace up ahead, towering in this world. Their sea of consciousness, flesh, and other parts immediately seemed to have been set on fire, all of them receiving heavy injuries.
This was simply unimaginable! Just examining this creature, secretly probing it created such serious rebound. They weren’t allowed to produce any bad thoughts towards it.
Moreover, when everyone looked at this creature, a great pressure seemed to have descended onto this place, making everyone shiver.
Putong!
Sure enough, there were many people who couldn’t control themselves, directly kneeling down. This was completely involuntary, a type of instinctive motion of their flesh, they all bowed down towards that creature.
“Not good, there might be another abrupt disaster!” Someone said in alarm, feeling like something bad was going to happen.
“How could it be like this?!” In that instant, many experts broke out in cold sweat. It was as if they were facing the world’s highest deity, feeling like they had to bow down in worship.
There were some who wanted to resist, not wishing to bow down. In the end, a light pu sounded, one’s body broke apart, falling into a pool of blood, killed instantly.
Only a few people were still standing, but their expressions were pale, unpleasant to the extreme.
“Don’t look at it! In other words, don’t try to examine it, otherwise, we will all die!” A powerful individual roared out, warning everyone.
The foreign side’s great cultivators were completely stuck in a type of formless panic. People turned into pools of blood one after another, to the extent where one of them directly exploded, body and soul wiped out.
Just how terrifying of a thing was this?
One had to understand that they were only looking at that creature, not taking action at all, only wishing to slightly probe its secrets, yet it was already like this.
“It has sealed its five senses and nine awareness, locking up its blood energy, closing off its body, not letting even a strand of essence energy leak out. It is not alive, but in an imperishable state!” An expert said.
Now, they couldn’t bother with Shi Hao anymore, all of them only thinking about surviving.
It was because everyone was in danger. This was a shocking change in situation, coming too suddenly, a dying creature almost making them fall to hell.
“How can this be? It has already completely sealed itself off, so why is there still danger to our lives?” This really was difficult to believe.
“This is just how it is, it is precisely because things are like this that it is terrifying. If we don’t look or think about it, then there won’t be any danger. If you all don’t believe me, then try it yourselves.”
Soon afterwards, some people calmed down. After the shadow of death left them, they no longer panicked.
Then, everyone did this. They all released a breath of relief. It really was too dangerous just now. If not for someone realizing it and reminding everyone, it really would have been a great disaster.
Below a mountain, Shi Hao’s entire body was covered in sweat. He was extremely far from the foreign cultivators, yet just now, he also almost died.
Only when he freed himself from that type of mental state, no longer paying attention to this creature, did everything reverse.
He drank a few mouthfuls of golden liquid with gudong gudong noises. This was the precious elixir he brought out from Divine Medicine Mountain Range, this elixir helping him recover right now.
“This creature’s cultivation realm is unimaginable, perhaps comparable to those at the very peak of our world!” Someone said.
It was in a state of hibernation, its essence blood sealed up, as if it dead. Based on normal reasoning, it should be no different from a piece of rock, yet right now, it was still a life-threatening danger.
“Not alive yet imperishable, this is a state that is close to death. Not the slightest bit of life will leak out, the deepest state of sleep.” Someone said.
“Once it wakes up, all of us will die. No one can endure this type of pressure, everyone will immediately explode to death!” An elder said with a heavy voice.
Everyone’s expressions became unpleasant, because they really were startled.
They really suspected if this was a terrifying existence from the last great era who didn’t die yet, in a suspended state here. It might be recovering from its injuries!
In the distance, Shi Hao heard these words, great waves surging within his mind. As long as this creature revived, all Self Release Realm great cultivators would explode to death, directly lose their lives?
This was just too terrifying! Just how powerful was it?
When he thought of these things, Shi Hao’s face became completely white. It was because he clearly remembered that when he just entered Heavenly Beast Forest, he had heard a terrifying beast roar. At that time, he saw an ancient beast roar from the depths of the forest, the sound splitting the heavens.
It was, without a doubt, this ancient beast!
At that time, even though he was far away, this creature was too majestic and terrifying. Shi Hao only saw a blurry outline, but there was no mistaking it.
“It isn’t in a state of perpetual dormancy, it even revived two days ago! This means that it might wake up at any time!” When he thought of this, Shi Hao shivered with fear.
“Just what kind of creature is it?” When they were no longer looking at it, everyone no longer suffered that pressure, the self destroying feeling disappeared.
This was precisely the reason why they dared speak softly, ask questions again.
This left Shi Hao shocked. If a creature this powerful didn’t come from the other side, then did it belong to the Nine Heavens? Back then, did it not fight against the other side?
Could it be an even more ancient existence? Maybe something unexpected happened too early, missing the final battle of the last great era?
This creature was definitely not normal, this was something anyone could see from a single look.
It was bound by a terrifying chain, locked in place, moreover tied to a stele below.
The weapon stabbed into its head was definitely an immortal spear. Even though it had rusted, it still released strand after strand of immortal energy.
It was this powerful, so why didn’t it pull this spear out?
Or was it to say, its primordial spirit had long been nailed to death?
“Right, there is something wrong with it. Even though it is tyrannical and heaven-defying, it was still locked down here by divine chains. That blood-colored immortal spear might also be one of the sealing objects!” The foreign experts came to this type of decision.
It was hard to imagine that even a creature this powerful would be suppressed and locked down by someone!
Shi Hao narrowed his eyes, not daring to look at that ancient creature for a long time. He only gave it a hurried look. It was too close, and it was this terrifying. Just thinking about it while looking at it might result in one’s body exploding!
He lowered his head, thinking to himself. Not even the foreign creatures recognized it, only hearing some rumors, proving just how ancient it was. Perhaps it was so ancient that it really missed out on the era ending war!
“I know who it is, what kind of background it has!”
An expert in the mountain forest spoke. Golden light shone brilliantly. A golden lion walked over, ferocious and astonishing, walking in this direction.
“Fearless Lion!” Shi Hao was shocked.
He noticed something. That Fearless Lion bloodline came from the Nine Heavens Ten Earths, but later on rebelled, defecting over to the other side, killing those of its own side.
The Fearless Lion recognized this creature, so there was a great chance that this ancient beast might precisely be a great figure from the Nine Heavens Ten Earths!
