C69 Dead City
If the cities of Earth were steel cities of reinforced concrete, then all the buildings here were the original ecological engineering of greenery.
The shape of the building was very similar to the trees and vegetation. The material of the building also seemed to be made of trees and soil.
It was the broken tower. At first glance, it looked like a towering tree.
However, what was supposed to be a lush green city was now a desolate scene. All the plants and flowers had withered, and even the land was emitting a deathly aura.
What people were given was not a vigorous life, but a suppressive feeling of death. Any living being that stayed here for a long time would go crazy.
Xiang Jing frowned. This was a completely different space, but it seemed to be an ominous place.
Be on high alert, Xiang Jing brought his two henchmen into this dead city.
Since they had entered the city, it was only right for them to reap some rewards.
He sent the two of them to look around, but they came back empty-handed. They took some local items, but also some things they hadn't seen before.
Xiang Jing continued to go deeper. There must be a reason why this place turned into such a ghost.
However, after walking for half an hour, there was nothing.
This place was truly like a deserted city. Not to mention humans, even ants could not be found here.
Xiang Jing spread his Wings of Steel and flew up to the top of the broken tower, looking around.
However, there were very few things that could be seen, and all of them were covered in mist.
Helpless, he could only return to the surface. This place did not seem like it was a war, how did it end up like this?
Just like this, another half an hour passed. Xiang Jing had already drawn out a large area, but there was still nothing to be gained.
In the blink of an eye, they had entered a new street area. Xiang Jing suddenly stopped and looked around with a puzzled expression.
This place was different from the other places, he could feel the breath of life here.
All the places they had passed before were deathly places with the scent of death emanating from them. However, Xiang Jing felt that the deathly aura had weakened a little since they entered this place. There was even an additional trace of imperceptible anger.
Just like the living and the dead, he could feel it, not to mention that Xiang Jing's five senses were sharp enough to capture everything around him.
But even so, the surrounding buildings did not look any different.
However, at least there was some sign of life. Xiang Jing continued to walk ahead. The deeper he went into the area, the clearer the feeling became.
Gradually, he could feel the existence of anger without being able to feel it.
Xiang Jing started to head towards the place that was filled with vitality. There must be something good there.
He could not help but increase his speed, and his slow pace became faster and faster.
After walking for an unknown distance, Xiang Jing finally stopped in front of a pile of ruins. Although this place looked exactly the same as the other ruins, he could feel that the vitality was radiating from these ruins.
Without any hesitation, Xiang Jing pointed at the ruins and said to the two thugs, "Dig!"
Corpse King of Linyuan and Beast King of One Hundred Mountains absolutely followed Xiang Jing's orders, digging without any hesitation.
Beast King of One Hundred Mountains 's strength was demonstrated here. His main body had a portion of the pangolin gene, and his digging speed was even faster than a drilling rig.
After a while, they dug out a hole for two people to enter at the same time. Furthermore, it was reinforced with a building made of material from the ruins, so it wouldn't collapse that easily.
Xiang Jing followed them into the cave and spent 5 minutes to buy a lamp. It was about the same size as a flashlight and could light up a long distance.
Along the way, Xiang Jing continued to lead Beast King of One Hundred Mountains while moving forward.
Aside from the initial parts of the ruins, the deeper they dug, the more special the soil became.
It looked earthy yellow, but it was as smooth and soft as jade.
He didn't know how deep he dug and how many turns he took, but when he looked back, he could no longer see the entrance above him.
However, the gas was getting denser and denser, and there were even some green plants in the soil layers, indicating that they were on the right path.
As he continued to dig, the life force grew stronger, and more green plants grew. At the back, he could even see some small creatures.
"Clang!"
Suddenly, there was a loud sound, and Beast King of One Hundred Mountains , who was digging in front, also stopped, as if he found something hard.
After widening the passage, Xiang Jing walked forward and saw that the originally yellow soil had a strange dark yellow metal.
It did not look much different from mud, but its color was even darker. Moreover, under the light's illumination, it was reflecting back and forth, and there were many complex inscriptions on it that were difficult to understand.
Xiang Jing looked around and told Beast King of One Hundred Mountains to dig it up to have a look.
Beast King of One Hundred Mountains waved his claws in the air. Pieces of soil fell off and gradually, a huge dark yellow metal wall appeared in front of Xiang Jing.
Xiang Jing stretched out his hand and touched the metal. It was cold to the touch, but it was as smooth and warm as jade, as if it was alive.
After knocking on the door, a dull sound was produced. It seemed to be very thick.
Xiang Jing let Beast King of One Hundred Mountains try to see if he could break through this wall.
Beast King of One Hundred Mountains waved his claws and used all of his strength to scratch the wall, causing an ear-piercing sound. Finally, not only did he not break through, he did not even leave a trace.
Xiang Jing frowned slightly. He took out his broadsword and shouted as he slashed at the wall with all his strength.
"Clang!"
With a sound, Xiang Jing felt as if his strength had cut into a ball of cotton, leaving him with only 10% of his strength left.
As for the dark yellow wall, there was still no reaction, not a single trace.
Xiang Jing became more excited as he felt a headache coming on. This wall was so abnormal, it meant that the thing he had to protect was much more precious.
Xiang Jing told Beast King of One Hundred Mountains to dig straight up from here. He didn't believe that there was no blind spot at 360 degrees, so he decided to dig on a different side if that didn't work.
Under the urging of Xiang Jing, Beast King of One Hundred Mountains dug the tunnel back to the surface with an extremely fast speed of half an hour.
Xiang Jing looked left and right and felt a bit absent-minded.
Because at some point, he had come to a valley.
The surroundings were covered in grass and filled with the feeling of spring. There was a waterfall in front of him and it was filled with life force. There were even birds and insects chirping around.
This scene was very different from the one from the previous one. It felt like he had come to heaven from hell.
Xiang Jing came back to his senses and looked over. There were buildings in the distance, and there were even some living creatures moving around.
It didn't matter if Xiang Jing and the other two suddenly appeared, the valley was pretty big anyways.
However, they were standing on a spherical ball of soil. The key point was that it was regularly filled with enormous rocks, and there were even some inscriptions on it. It was obvious that this was an important place.
