Chapter 369 The Non-existent Creature, the Void-Breaking Beast!
On the other side, in the city of ruins, at the city lord's mansion.
"Brother! It's already dark, those spies could make their move at any moment." Sotun paced back and forth in the hall, looking anxious. "Shouldn't we do something?"
He hadn't properly trusted these spies.
If Longcheng suffers heavy losses, he will also be implicated.
"Yeah, that's right."
Although the Lord of Snow Night City was sitting on the city lord's stone throne, he also frowned and said, "Immediately contact the Lord of Dragon City and tell him that my City of Ruins is willing to help and can lend him an army of a thousand men."
He had been to Longcheng and could tell at a glance that Longcheng had too few troops.
With fewer than three hundred people, it would be difficult to defend a large city.
Not to mention, this big city has so many good things, and every place is a gem.
This means that the deployment of 300 people would have to be evenly distributed, further weakening the defense.
And now.
With a single word from Xiao Yu, he could send reinforcements to Xiao Yu for him to command at will.
To avoid Dragon City suffering heavy losses and Xiao Yu blaming the City of Ruins.
"Lord of the City!" Before Lord Xueye could go to find Xiao Yu, his subordinate came in to report, "Lord Longcheng went to the teleportation array base with Master Ashu, saying that he was learning about teleportation arrays."
"What?" Upon hearing this, both Lord Xueye and Sotun were taken aback.
Sotun stared wide-eyed in disbelief, "His city has been invaded, isn't he worried that his territory will be turned upside down?"
If their ruined city were that good, they would definitely stay there every day.
They could not leave for even a moment, giving no opportunity to the enemy.
However, the city lord of Dragon City had a completely indifferent attitude.
"Doesn't he know that defense is always passive?" The Snow Night City Lord frowned even more deeply.
Even if those spies weren't very capable.
But... all they have to do is climb up the glow-in-the-dark tree and set it on fire.
Or they might set fire to restaurants or shopping streets.
These are all easy.
At that time, the entire Dragon City will be in complete chaos.
All that is beautiful will be reduced to ashes.
At this point, the spies would seize the opportunity to steal the treasure.
Do you want to put out the fire first, or go hunt down those spies?
Putting out a fire? That would only mean letting spies steal the treasure.
Hunting down spies? If that happens, Dragon City will truly be reduced to ashes!
Dragon City is facing such a crisis.
This young city lord not only doesn't go back to take charge, but also wanders around aimlessly.
The Lord of Snowy Night City originally thought...
The Lord of Dragon City possesses extraordinary talent and is destined to become a powerful figure who will surpass his own achievements.
But now it seems we were too young; we hadn't experienced the harsh realities of life!
Sotun walked faster and faster, then said directly, "No, brother! Since the Dragon City Lord refuses to return to take charge, why don't we go to Dragon City Commercial Street first? If we really need help, we can lend a hand..."
He was somewhat disappointed in this Lord of Dragon City.
When attacked by the enemy, he wandered around aimlessly while ordering his men to fight to the death.
Just then, a soldier who had been sent to guard the foot of the earth dragon turtle hurriedly returned.
"Why are you back so soon?" Sotun said coldly upon seeing the soldier. "Weren't you ordered to guard the area below Dragon City and intercept those spies who escaped?"
"My lords, please allow me to explain. Here's what happened..."
The soldier recounted what he had seen and heard in the simplest terms.
"Two or three hundred spies, all wiped out? And in Dragon City, not a single person was injured or killed?" After listening to the soldiers' report, Lord Xueye and Sotun exchanged a glance, both looking bewildered.
It's unbelievable.
They considered how Longcheng should respond.
Perhaps they lack experience.
Just like the city of ruins, which, despite its great strength, is always overwhelmed with problems.
After all... what good is your strength?
They won't fight you head-on; they'll just cause destruction!
But right now... these spies haven't even entered Dragon City yet.
There wasn't even time to use any of our methods!
Right halfway up the mountain, they were all utterly destroyed!
"We underestimated Dragon City!"
……
On the other side, in the main city of the ruins, not far from the city lord's mansion.
"Is this the teleportation array of the City of Ruins?" Xiao Yu looked at everything in front of him, utterly shocked.
At this moment, he was standing on an open space with a diameter of over a hundred meters.
Eight pitch-black stone pillars stand around it, each one a hundred meters tall.
Eight stone pillars form a Bagua (Eight Trigrams) formation.
Beneath each stone pillar is a piece of translucent bone, about the size of a fist.
Upon seeing the skeleton, Xiao Yu attempted to examine it with his mental power, but his brows furrowed.
The reason is that when one's spiritual power probes in, it feels like a clay ox entering the sea.
"Don't underestimate these bones!" The old man in black robes glanced at Xiao Yu and said calmly.
Xiao Yu stared at the bones, and as he scanned them with his spiritual power, he discovered faint purple-gold patterns emerging on them, which looked incredibly mysterious.
However, mental energy still cannot be easily scanned.
More accurately, it's a complete mess.
All the objects I had seen before only had one thousand, ten thousand, or one hundred thousand energy threads.
Given enough time, Xiao Yu will be able to sort things out.
But these bones contain millions, even tens of millions, of energy threads!
With his mental strength, he simply couldn't analyze it in a short time!
Xiao Yu frowned and asked, "What are these bones? Why are they so strange?"
"Sky-Piercing Beast!"
The old man in black robes arrived at a stone pillar, squatted down, and touched the translucent bones. His eyes were filled with complex emotions as he said, "This is the skeleton of a spirit beast called... the Sky-Piercing Beast!"
"The Sky-Piercing Beast?" Upon hearing this name, Xiao Yu's pupils constricted slightly.
Just from the name, you can tell it's likely related to space.
It was something he had never encountered before.
Xiao Yu suddenly had a feeling that he might discover a new world in the City of Ruins.
"This is a kind of...spirit beast that is born with spatial power, and does not exist in this world," Master Ashura said in a calm tone, as if he were talking about something very ordinary.
However, Xiao Yu's eyes widened in surprise, and he asked, "What do you mean by 'not existing in this world'? Then why is it here? And where did it come from?"
"Nobody knows where it came from!"
The old man in black robes slowly rose, his tone still calm, "I obtained it by chance. Perhaps... it was just a lost little beast that accidentally ended up in this world."
"Heh!" Xiao Yu's lips twitched, and he let out a cold laugh.
This explanation is completely unconvincing.
“Master Ashura!” Xiao Yu thought of something and asked tentatively, “You’ve mentioned another world several times. Could it be… that another world really exists? Have you ever been to another world?”
The old man in black robes looked at Xiao Yu with surprise, then smiled calmly and said, "You're quite perceptive. Indeed, there are other worlds, or rather, countless other worlds, and countless fragments of those worlds..."
I may have been to another world, or I may not.
