The few of them were shocked. Veteran had a bad temper to begin with. After seeing this, he immediately raised his leg and kicked the black bear’s head!
“Alright, ignore it. Hurry up and go up the mountain to see what’s going on!”
Scholar pulled Veteran over and quickly left with him.
As everyone walked forward, they looked at the detector and saw that the distance from the location of the fluctuation was shrinking bit by bit!
15%…
10%…
5%…
Just as he was about to reach the fluctuation, Zhou Hao suddenly stopped in his tracks!
Seeing that Zhou Hao did not continue forward, everyone stopped one after another.
They had already reached the top of the mountain. Zhou Hao suddenly waved his hand and gestured for everyone to be quiet. Then, he said with a solemn expression, “Everyone, squat down and hide. There’s… a problem in front!”
When everyone heard this, they immediately lowered their bodies and hid behind the bushes. They carefully looked into the distance of the mountaintop.
When everyone saw the scene far away from the mountaintop, they were immediately shocked!
In the distance from the mountaintop was a huge valley. In the valley, countless dense ancient beasts were gathered. It was the same group of beasts that had just rushed to the mountaintop!
All the ancient beasts formed a circle. In the center was a huge stone tablet that was at least ten meters tall!
There were dense words written on the stone tablet, but they could not understand the words at all.
In the next second, the stone tablet suddenly emitted an ear-piercing sound. Then, an invisible fluctuation spread out and instantly surrounded these mutated beasts!
As the ground shook, the mutated beasts that were surrounded by the fluctuations emitted by the stone tablet all underwent a change!
Some of them had turned into corpses without any flesh, but they could still move and were even stronger than before!
Some of them became unrecognizable. They had the head of a tiger, the body of a cow, the tail of a snake, and the claws of a dragon. They opened their mouths and spat out hot flames, instantly igniting the surrounding flowers and trees!
Some who failed to mutate simply turned into a pile of burnt charcoal. With a bang, they instantly fell to the ground and turned into thick smoke that instantly dissipated!
Moreover, after these mutated beasts mutated, Zhou Hao could clearly sense that their levels had actually improved greatly in a short period of time!
Some mutated beasts had wider vision and could see everything within a five-kilometer radius.
Some mutated beasts became even more sensitive. They could hear even finer sounds in an incomparably noisy environment!
There were also mutated beasts that had a breakthrough in their sense of smell. They could now distinguish more than 10,000 types of gasses!
Looking around, there were at least 100,000 mutated beasts gathered here. There were at least 50,000 that had succeeded in their mutation!
What shocked Zhou Hao even more was that the surrounding air was emitting buzzing sounds. Moreover, there were constant fluctuations in the void, and several spatial rifts appeared out of thin air!
The interior of the spatial rift was pitch-black, and no one knew what was inside!
“Roar! Roar!”
In the distance, a mutated beast suddenly roared. Then, its eagle-like gaze suddenly stared at them!
“Damn, a mutated beast has discovered us. Run, return to the spacecraft!”
Zhou Hao hurriedly pulled up the few people lying on the ground and ran!
At this moment, they did not care if they would be discovered by these mutated beasts.
Since he had already investigated and found out what was going on with the violent trembling, he had to leave this place as soon as possible!
Otherwise, if they stayed here for too long, they would cause a lot of unnecessary trouble!
The group quickly flew forward. However, not only did the ferocious beast that had discovered them have sharp senses, but its speed had also increased explosively!
It maintained a distance of ten meters behind them. They were simply unable to shake it off!
At this rate, even if they reached the spacecraft, they would have no chance to board. Moreover, if the spacecraft was destroyed by this mutated beast, they would not be able to return at all!
“This can’t continue!”
Zhou Hao’s expression darkened before he roared, “You guys go first. Get on the ship first. I’ll delay it. You guys can drive the spacecraft over to pick me up later!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Hao immediately made a sharp turn and stopped. Then, he quickly rushed towards the tiger-headed beast!
“Zhou Hao! You can’t defeat that sixth-grade Heaven Realm beast!”
Everyone immediately became anxious, but Zhou Hao was not afraid at all and quickly rushed over!
“No, I’ll help him!”
Scholar panicked and hurriedly wanted to return.
“Me too!”
The three quasi Heaven Realm team members also said anxiously, but they were grabbed by Veteran.
“You’ll be a burden to Zhou Hao if you go back!”
Veteran roared and said anxiously, “We’ll listen to Zhou Hao’s arrangements. He’s the captain of our team. I believe in his decision!”
“We should board the ship as soon as possible and rush back to pick him up. Otherwise, the more time you waste, the more danger he will be in!”
After being yelled at by Veteran, Scholar and the others finally returned to their senses!
“Zhou Hao, don’t worry. We won’t abandon you no matter what!”
Veteran’s eyes were red as he gathered his strength and quickly ran towards the spacecraft. Soon, they boarded the spacecraft and rushed towards Zhou Hao!
At this moment, Zhou Hao was facing the tiger-headed beast that was pouncing towards him. He immediately activated the power of the Genesis Rune, and countless runes instantly condensed around him!
Then, he pointed with his finger and immediately imprisoned the tiger-headed beast!
However, the huge backlash was too much for him to handle. Blood instantly flowed from Zhou Hao’s seven apertures. His breathing quickened, and his face turned especially pale!
“Now!”
Veteran immediately opened the cabin door and lowered the retractable ladder. Taking advantage of the fact that the tiger-headed beast had been imprisoned, he immediately grabbed Zhou Hao’s belt with one hand and pulled him up!
The moment Zhou Hao was pulled up, the power of the Genesis Rune instantly dissipated. The tiger-headed beast immediately roared and pounced towards the two of them.
At the same time, the retractable ladder was quickly retracted. The tiger-headed beast missed and could only take a defensive stance as it roared at the spacecraft.
