…
Qin Yu kept his head lowered, his eyes flashing. He had sensed something strange just now. It was as if some terrifying gaze had locked onto them.
It was extremely weak. If it weren’t for Old Turtle determining that this was real, he would have suspected it to be an illusion of his.
And at that exact time, Tan Hai and Cang Zhu both tensed up. Although they soon recovered, they couldn’t help but reveal panic in their eyes.
Qin Yu immediately relaxed. Since everyone had their secrets, then this big brother wouldn’t tattle on his little brother. It was fine if no one caused trouble.
With this thought in mind, he lightly coughed and briefly bumped gazes with Cang Zhu. His meaning was – I also caught your weakness!
It was strange, but Cang Zhu immediately understood the meaning within Qin Yu’s eyes. She gritted her teeth with annoyance.
This shameless person was truly sinister. He had actually hidden himself so deeply.
Hum hum, but you are still too naïve. We will enter the Lost Garden soon. Then, I will teach you just how terrifying the retaliation of a woman is!
The black hole was in front.
They went in.
Hum –
Qin Yu’s consciousness emptied out. This was unexpected. Fortunately, no dangers appeared. A series of low and solemn sounds rang out in his mind like bells and thunder.
These sounds were strange and carried with them the traces of ancient times. But for some unknown reason, Qin Yu directly understood their meaning.
To summarize it in a few words, it was – Welcome home!
Hum –
There was another buzzing in his ears. Then, Qin Yu discovered that his consciousness had returned to his body.
He opened his head. Sunlight poured down from above his head. He felt a stabbing pain in his eyes as tears flowed out.
Since he didn’t want to close his eyes, he could only squint and endure. He looked around, barely making out his surroundings.
His first impression was – this was the wilderness!
He saw tall trees of a type he had never encountered before. They flooded his field of vision, packing together, each one of them astonishingly thick to the point that dozens of people would be needed to wrap around it. The trunks of the trees were covered with purple vines. The dense leaves could cover up the thorns that grew on the vines and shined with a metallic luster.
Unlike the purple vines that were huge, dense, and slightly hideous, there were small flowers growing on them. They released a sweet fragrance in the air, leaving one at ease just by taking a single sniff and causing one to want to indulge in them.
Mm? Qin Yu’s heart chilled and he hurriedly held his breath. He completely blocked off his revolution of strength, severing his connection to the outside world. Even so, he still felt his eyes dizzy and his vision flash black!
Hum –
Hum –
The noise of beating wings suddenly sounded out, so dense and thick that it pierced through the eardrums and left one horrified. Everyone’s hairs rose on the back of their necks.
They looked up to see that from every purple flower, a bee raced out. The bees opened their savage mouths and rushed towards them.
The man named Tan Hai was the unluckiest. When the transmission ended, he appeared closest to the purple vines. He bore the brunt of the assault. The swarm of bees flooded over him like a tide, wrapping around him.
Bang –
Bang –
Bang –
There were successive colliding sounds in the void, one after another, as if brutal strikes were being flung out. The bees were shaken and sent flying away. Tan Hai appeared, completely fine, but he frowned as his eyes shined with surprise and dignity.
These seemingly common bees possessed an expectedly tyrannical defense. Although they had been shaken away, they only flew a few circles around before gathering themselves and rushing back over.
As expected of the legendary Lost Garden, it truly was amazing. But these little things weren’t qualified to harm him.
Tan Hai coldy snorted, raised a hand, and grasped forward. With a roar, an invisible grinding disc descended. It frantically rotated, causing the countless bees that were sucked inside to be crushed into powder.
At the same time, Qin Yu and the others were also surrounded by bees.
The most relaxed was actually the mountain boring beast. It hugged its head and curled up into a ball. Its body flashed black, almost as if it transformed into metal. Then, no matter how the bees surrounded it and clashed with it, they couldn’t harm it in the least.
As soon as Qin Yu arrived, he was already in danger before his eyes fully opened.
Don’t underestimate the buzzing bees that surrounded them. They seemed to be killed off in droves, but that was because the people they attacked weren’t ordinary. Even Qin Yu’s fake identity, which was supposed to be the weakest amongst the group, had a performance that was much stronger than the average cultivator.
In this situation, one had to be at least an Origin God to resist the assault of the bees. Anyone else that rushed in would be torn to shreds in the blink of an eye. And as far as he could see, this was just the opening appetizer after entering the Lost Garden.
The bees that flew out from the purple flowers didn’t only have incredible defensive powers but also an amazing vitality. Only by thoroughly grinding them down could they be truly killed. If their heads were chopped off or their bodies cleaved in half, they could still fight as viciously as before.
Continuous traces of purple aura filled the air. This was caused by the corpses of the bees being vaporized by the sunlight after they died. There didn’t seem to be anything wrong with it, at least for the time being, because they didn’t cause any harm.
But Qin Yu couldn’t help but furrow his eyebrows together. Because as time passed, even though they killed a massive number of bees, not only did their numbers not reduce, they even started to increase.
Qin Yu looked at the wisps of purple aura in the air. His intuition told him that the bees were attracted here by it.
Before he was enveloped by the large number of bees, Qin Yu saw the dense and thick forest of trees. And on each tree, there were purple vines that climbed them.
If bees were hidden in every single flower on those purple vines, then…they had really poked an incomparably giant honeycomb.
They had to break through as soon as possible, otherwise with how the trend was continuing, it wouldn’t be long before they were smothered to death with numbers alone.
Should he still act? If he was alone, he was confident that he could break out. But if he did this, he would be suspected. After all, the strength needed to break out from this encirclement wasn’t something that someone with his fake identity should possess.
Whatever. If they suspected then they could suspect whatever they wanted. It didn’t matter as long as they didn’t figure out who he really was.
Borrowing the hand of the Dragon Mountain Holy Land was only to quietly enter the Lost Garden. Now, that goal had been achieved.
As Qin Yu’s feet moved and he prepared to leave, he could hear the incomparably loud buzzing sound in his ears begin to weaken.
It was abrupt and without any signs at all. Qin Yu was a little stunned as the dense bee swam all around him began to fade away.
Then, in several breaths of time, all the bees completely retreated, drilling back into their purple flowers and vanishing from sight.
Everyone gasped for breath, their eyebrows furrowing together. If it weren’t for the thick layer of bee corpses piled up on the ground, they would have suspected this was all an illusion.
Pa –
Pa –
Pa –
Light sounds entered Qin Yu’s ears. His complexion changed.
He watched as the flowers that bloomed on the purple vines suddenly closed up into buds, then retracted beneath the dense foliage.
Hualala –
With swaying and rubbing sounds, the purple vines that wrapped around the large trees tightened, making their entanglement even stronger.
Tan Hai shouted out, “Be careful!”
Dragon Peak subconsciously shrank back his head and hid behind Flatrock. Flatrock’s eyes twitched but he still protected him. Unless Flatrock no longer planned on staying at the Dragon Mountain Holy Land, he couldn’t allow any accidents to befall Dragon Peak.
Everything was quiet as the group waited in full battle stance. But nothing came.
Suddenly, sounds filled the air. This was the lush leaves of the trees and purple vines gently rubbing against each other.
Wind rose!
It wasn’t especially intense. Under the burning sunlight, it even felt cool and comfortable. But at this time Qin Yu’s pupils shrank and he looked towards the distant horizon. There was an abnormal darkness there, one filled with cruelty and pressure.
Without hesitation, his feet struck the ground and he exploded away. But what a pity, although Qin Yu’s reaction was fast and so was his speed, the darkness on the horizon was even faster.
Rumble rumble –
With a deep and endless roar, the world seemed to shiver. A clear suction force enveloped Qin Yu and he started to slow down. He helplessly looked around.
He had many cards in his hands, but in terms of running away, it seemed he was still lacking.
As Qin Yu was wavering on whether or not he should use a card and try to run away, the darkness he saw in front of him made him decisively dismiss this idea.
This wasn’t something chasing him from behind, but something that encircled him from all sides. Since he was already a fish in a net, there was no need to waste his strength.
He might as well take it easy and face the upcoming ordeal!
Shua –
Qin Yu came to a stop. A moment later, he felt like a common little piece of gravel, instantly swallowed up by darkness.
A heaven-shaking bang rumbled into his ears. His mind roared with thunder and his chest was heavy, leaving him almost unable to breathe.
A formidable tearing strength wracked his body, as if countless hands were trying to tear him apart.
Pika paka –
Countless cracks appeared on the surface of his body, revealing dark red flesh and blood and even the bones hidden deeper beneath. He groaned in pain.
Hou –!
With a shout, Qin Yu’s heartbeat began to accelerate, pushing blood through his body.
His wounds instantly vanished and closed. The power of space erupted, wrapping around him.
The Lost Garden really was a place that was almost completely isolated from the outside world and forgotten by time. Even the rules here were different.
No, it wasn’t right to say that the rules were different. To be more exact, actuating the rules within the Lost Garden required even greater strength.
With Qin Yu’s Space Laws, he was barely able to twist space. He was unable to fully resist the storm that tore at him.
But luckily, the remaining part wasn’t enough to cause substantial damage to Qin Yu…mm, it didn’t seem too dangerous.
As this thought appeared, his complexion changed. His figure flickered and he moved to the side, crossing paths and avoiding striking a dark shadow.
Both sides were close, almost touching, but missing by an inch.
It was close enough that Qin Yu could smell that strong and revolting scent of blood coming from the other party.
Hum –
His ears caught another sound. The dark shadow he avoided threw itself at him once again.
This time, Qin Yu could finally make out the appearance of the other party. It was a strange beast that resembled a mantis with wings on its back.
It was just that its size was incredible, even larger than an adult human. Its compound eyes flashed with blood, and its dark forelimbs were raised like sabers!
