When they traveled across planes, they would establish a river with the Blood Bone Beasts’ blood, and have the souls of the Blood Bone Beast push them forward. It was similar to the Noscent mages’ Planar Path.
Because they were moving towards the underground world, which was full of power of darkness, it was unnecessary to control the direction. This was the nearest place to the underground world. They could float there naturally.
The river of blood was still running, and Lin Yun’s spells were continuing. He didn’t have to use spells to control them, but he just wanted to play it safe.
After a dozen minutes, a glimr of light appeared ahead, as if a firefly was floating on the surface of the bloody river. As they drew closer and closer, the light beca dazzling, and seed to be tearing the darkness apart.
The boat dashed towards the light. Instantly, all the darkness was gone. The sky was glowing, and everything beca bright.
Lin Yun blinked, and the dazzling light around him dimd. An enormous world appeared in front of them. They were falling to the ground from the sky.
Lin Yun unleashed his mana and floated in the sky, and the boat that was made of dark wood was stowed away.
The world he saw looked very strange. It was extrely dim, and didn’t have a sun. However, sohow there was light in this world. When he observed the distance with the Hawk Eye, he could see an obvious upward curve on the horizon.
He looked around, and saw the sa thing in every direction. He could see the terrain dozens of kiloters away with the Hawk Eye and the law runes. The view was the sa in every direction. This was like an enormous bowl, and they were at its bottom. The land he saw had such a curve in every direction.
Also, the curve beca deeper and deeper as he looked further away. As he stared at the views, the law runes in Lin Yun’s eyes gradually combined into an illusionary wheel, which allowed him to see the general shape of the land. The land here was indeed curved, and it was curved in the opposite direction compared to the planets in the boundless void.
Except Lin Yun, who boasted special abilities, only those who were in level 8 or level 9 of the Heaven Rank would be able to see such views. Researchers might be able to reach the sa conclusion by inferring it from data.
The underground world was like an enormous balloon, where all creatures lived on the internal surface. Gravity pointed at the internal surface of the balloon too.
The underground world had a diater of more than 38,000 kiloters, which would be asured by the bored mages in the future. It ant that if one were to fly upwards from any place, they would reach the continent on the other side of the underground world after they flew for 38,000 kiloters.
Unfortunately, the center of this enormous spherical world had chaotic gravity and mana. Everybody who stood in the center would be torn to all directions by the power of the world.
It was possible that their head would be pulled upwards, their legs downwards, and their arms left and right separately. An ordinary person would’ve been torn into shreds the mont they got there. The pieces of their body might disperse across the underground world.
The power was not too strong. Any Heaven Rank mage could pass through, and fly upwards to the other end of the underground world. For a Heaven Rank expert, it wasn’t a problem at all to fly tens of thousands of kiloters with the help of magic tools.
Unfortunately, a large area around the center had been reduced to a lair of havoc and destruction because of the ripped mana, elents, and space. Even level-7 and level-8 Heaven Rank experts didn’t dare to approach that place easily. So, everybody could only look up and see a gray sky. They never realized that there was another continent above their head.
The underground world was quite enormous with a diater of 38,000 kiloters. Besides, it was almost a complete, independent world, whose laws were similar to those in Noscent. There were a lot of planes that were attached to the underground world.
In the future, many Planar Paths would be discovered in the underground world, which made it even more massive.
Lin Yun took out the map he acquired earlier to confirm his direction. There were a lot of things on the map that marked the direction. On the top of the map was a shoreline that was in the shape of a leaf. Lin Yun looked at his right side, and saw the ocean hundreds of kiloters away. Because of the upward curve on the horizon, it could be clearly seen from the sky that the part of the ocean was indeed like the end of a leaf.
At this mont, he was a bit off the center of the map, and that bit on the map equaled 1,000 kiloters.
Lin Yun calculated his position and checked the records. Imdiately, he put on a smile.
“Great. We’re closer to our destination because of the deviation. According to the records, if we move 2,000 kiloters to the east side of the map, we’ll reach the place where Cave Gnos were spotted. The Red-Skinned Spirit Suckers won’t be far away, either.”
They were both ntioned in the journal, which ant that their tribes couldn’t have been away. Both of the races had few Heaven Rank mbers. They couldn’t have migrated too far away, either, if they weren’t eliminated yet. Several thousand kiloters was the max.
In particular, the Cave Gnos and the Red-Skinned Spirit Suckers were never fond of moving. It wasn’t easy for them to settle down, so the odds were not low that the two races might be found.
Lin Yun took out a floating boat, and slightly changed the mana on his skin, transforming from a plain-looking ordinary person into a dark mage that was enshrouded in dark mist. In the underground world, they were known as dark spellcasters. There were all kinds of races in the underground world, including human beings, except that the latter were a minority group here.
Disguised as a dark spellcaster, he moved forward on a floating ship, and flew for a dozen kiloters. Then, he saw a human-shaped creature who had wings and a lizard head. That was a lizard man. There were a lot of them in the underground world.
The lizard man was around level 40, but when he saw Lin Yun’s floating boat and detected his powerful aura, he quickly descended and bent his back, waiting for the floating boat to pass by.
Lin Yun stopped his floating boat above the lizard man’s head. His enigmatic and creepy voice ca from above.
The lizard man down below was even more scared after he heard the voice. He fell on his knees in midair, and didn’t even dare to raise his head.
“Esteed dragon, what can I do for you?”
The lizard man spoke in the common tongue of the underground world, which was similar to Noscent’s language, but with a strange accent that carried the grimness of the underground world.
Lin Yun was speaking the most natural Nesser Language, or the Nesser Dragon Language, to be precise. The language was slightly different from the Nesser Language. In the Nesser Dynasty, only the Chromatic Dragons were allowed to speak the language.
In the future, when the mages entered the underground world, they would find the Nesser Dragon Language and the tales of Chromatic Dragons here, but they wouldn’t see any Chromatic Dragons, just their descendants. Still, the descendants were among the most powerful species in the underground world. Due to body structure, the other races could only understand the Nesser Dragon Language, but could not speak it.
Therefore, whoever spoke the Nesser Dragon Language in the underground world would be an expert dragon. The lizard man had already felt the natural pressure. He discovered three people on the boat, including a beastman and a dragon. Even the beastman was very awe-inspiring too. He couldn’t identify the race of the last passenger, but that was the strongest man. He felt like he had died once just by detecting the aura.
The lizard man lowered his head, and regretted flying so high. If he hadn’t flown so high, he wouldn’t have encountered those three formidable beings. If the strangers disliked him, they could easily kill him, and nobody would stand up for him.
The lizard man was frightened, but Lin Yun didn’t do anything after a long ti.
Hiding in the dark mist, Lin Yun frowned. He had planned to pretend to be a dragon so that it would be easier for him to travel the underground world, but sothing seed to be wrong with his spell. When he simulated the Chromatic Dragon’s articulation structure, he could only utter simple words, and couldn’t say anything complicated.
It took him 10 seconds to study the spell. Yet, his silence almost terrified the lizard man down below.
There were very few pure-blood dragons in the underground world. Most of the dragons had impure bloodlines. Xiuban could be considered as the descendant of hybrid dragons, but Reina was the descendant of Frost Dragons. Her bloodline was as good as the Chromatic Dragon’s after the improvent.
Having seen a strong hybrid dragon, a pure-blood dragon, and soone who could speak the Nesser Dragon Tongue, the lizard man, who was only level 40, and hadn’t even beco a real extraordinary creature yet, had already behaved courageously enough.
After three minutes, Lin Yun’s grim and cold voice finally dropped down from the dark distance.
“Where are the nearest Cave Gnos and Red-Skinned Spirit Suckers?”
The lizard man was greatly relieved.
Oh my God, I’m really lucky. He’s clearly the descendant of a Destruction Black Dragon. Good thing they aren’t interested in lizard n, or I would’ve been eaten.
The Red-Skinned Spirit Suckers are still not extinct yet after being eaten for so many years. They’re really lucky. But why is this formidable being looking for Cave Gnos? Is he going to let those filthy creatures build a nest for him?
A lot of thoughts flashed in the lizard man’s head. Then, he pointed in a certain direction without hesitation.
“Great dragon, move 1,800 kiloters in that direction, and you’ll see a huge tribe of Cave Gnos. There’s a big barren mountain in that direction. 300 kiloters from the Cave Gnos, there’s a tribe of Red-Skinned Spirit Suckers. I passed by there 100 years ago, and saw them with my own eyes.”
After the lizard man said that, a bottle of potion was dropped to him from the sky. Inside the bottle was a drop of a pure-blood dragon’s blood, which was the best stuff for a lizard man. After he absorbed the blood, he would carry so of the dragon’s bloodline. It would an that he had received the favor of a dragon.
The lizard man stowed away the potion greedily in shock. His panic was completely gone.
“Great expert, allow , humble Darri, to lead the way for you.”
They moved onwards, with the lizard man Darri on the team. He was one of the scavengers among lizard n, and had been in level 40 since 200 years ago, but he’d never had an opportunity to grow into a real extraordinary creature, so he had been wandering, and looking for opportunities.
The opportunity ca unexpectedly. The one drop of pure-blood dragon’s blood that carried bloodline marks would be the best opportunity for him to advance into the Heaven Rank.
Darri was leading the way. He would rather fly at the cost of his mana than sit down in the floating boat.
“Damn you, Xiuban, you are truly an idiot. If you hadn’t said that the lizard man looked delicious, he wouldn’t have been too scared to board the floating boat. Do you see the consequences? We have to slow down and follow this stupid lizard man…”
Enderfa’s left face seized the chance to mock Xiuban for 10 minutes without stopping. This ti, the middle face didn’t intervene. Xiuban sat gloomily in silence, and chewed a roast leg as if it were his mortal enemy.
As the Gilded Rose grew more and more powerful, Xiuban, being Lin Yun’s chief bodyguard, had a high position too. He could eat anything he wanted. Even if he wanted novel beasts from other planes, Faleau wouldn’t hesitate to pay a fortune for the at, and Lin Yun certainly didn’t care about the money, either.
Xiuban had already beco picky. In Xiuban’s eyes, human beings and beastn were inedible. Undead creatures didn’t look tasty. As for the other creatures, none of them couldn’t be roasted or eaten. He had never t a lizard man before, and simply regarded him as a bizarre-looking lizard that he could taste…
However, what Xiuban said nearly scared Darri to death. He would rather fly with his full strength at the cost of his mana than approach Xiuban. To be eaten was definitely more terrifying than to be killed.
After they flew for more than 1,000 kiloters, soone stopped them when they were still halfway.
A flock of birds that had four wings, a crocodile head, and no feathers at all were flying in the sky. There was an elf on each of the birds’ back.
Those elves’ faces were entirely pale, without any hint of blood. Their eyes and hair were red. Bloody stripes could be vaguely seen on their skin. So had stripes on their cheeks, so on their arms.
Lin Yun walked out of the cabin, and frowned when he saw the elves.
They were the Blood Elves in the underground world. The Blood Elves were undoubtedly one of the most powerful races in the underground world. They might not be as strong as pure-blood dragons as individuals, but there were many more Blood Elves than there were pure-blood dragons.
Nobody knew how the Blood Elves were born. Even tens of thousands of years later, the mages who studied them wouldn’t reach any conclusion.
There were two famous theories. The first theory believed that the Blood Elves were born in the age of gods and devils. In the fierce battles, it should be very easy for the space barrier between Noscent and the underground world to be broken.
In so weak places, the space barrier was broken. After the gods and devils perished, their blood flooded into the underground world, and gave birth to the first batch of the Blood Elves.
However, this opinion was disapproved by the second theory because there had never been Blood Elves in Noscent. When the gods and devils perished, much more blood had flowed on the surface of Noscent than the blood that accidentally filled into the underground world.
The second theory stipulated that the Blood Elves used to be Natural Elves or Forest Elves, and they entered the underground world by accident when the Noscent was suffering from a catastrophe. Those elves were accustod to sunny worlds, and couldn’t have been adapted to the underground environnt.
Therefore, in order to survive, the only way was to be corrupted and fit in. The Blood Elves looked even more handso than normal elves, but the power they controlled was completely different from that of normal elves.
