Chapter 958: Chance Encounter on the Grasslands
“What’s wrong?” An Lin was slightly confused as he looked toward Xuanyuan Cheng.
Just then, he had also studied the map for a while. However, he was still at a complete loss.
Xuanyuan Cheng didn’t speak. He jabbed a finger toward the map and used a white light to slowly join the red dots into a complex pattern.
An Lin looked on in astonishment. “This is… a spell formation?”
Xuanyuan Cheng nodded. “The distribution of these red dots seems random. However, they actually contain the pattern of a Yin Yang Circulation. It almost appears like a gigantic, naturally formed spell formation.”
White threads of light intertwined, and they eventually drew out an extremely complex spell formation.
“It seems like the spell formation isn’t complete?” Although An Lin was no expert with spell formations, his Divine Inspection Technique allowed him to discover numerous critical faults.
If one channeled energy within the spell formation, they would definitely cause the spell formation to crumble.
Xuanyuan Cheng nodded. “Perhaps some spatial nodes of this spell formation haven’t appeared yet. Or perhaps we haven’t discovered them yet. Anyhow, this situation makes finding the vital juncture of the spell formation very difficult for me…”
“It’s here!”
Before Xuanyuan Cheng had even finished speaking, An Lin had already pointed his finger toward some location. There was a white glow pulsating in his eyes.
The region that An Lin pointed at was Mongolia, a country just above Inner Mongolia.
Xuanyuan Cheng: “…”
“Student An Lin, you clearly do understand spell formations!” Xuanyuan Cheng humphed unhappily.
An Lin felt a little stifled. He had found the vital juncture by using his Divine Inspection Technique; he genuinely didn’t understand spell formations!
The two of them didn’t waste any more time and decided to head to Mongolia straight away.
Tina tore open a spatial fissure and spatial hopped with Da Bai, An Lin, and Xuanyuan Cheng. As for An Mingchuan and Tian Lingling, An Lin decided not to bring them along. After all, the dangers of this journey were unknown.
…
Above a vast stretch of rolling grassland…
Crack…
A pitch-black fissure materialized in the air.
An Lin, Xuanyuan Cheng, Tina, and Da Bai appeared in the sky above the grasslands.
“Why is the vital energy here so thin? Theoretically speaking, shouldn’t the vital energy be richer near the vital juncture of spell formations? Woof!” Da Bai looked around the grassland quizzically.
Xuanyuan Cheng was equally as baffled.
An Lin took a deep breath and released his powerful divine sense. Instantly, he could sense all the vital energy within a radius of hundreds of kilometers.
“It seems like we’re at the right place. The vital energy here has become thin because all the vital energy has gathered at some other location.” An Lin’s eyes lit up, and he turned his gaze toward a certain direction.
…
On some lush green grassland…
Herds of cows and sheep were roaming on this land, and each of these animals reached a whopping ten meters in height. Like gigantic beasts, they moved around the grassland slowly.
A graceful and shapely female was lying on the back of a gigantic white sheep. Her body was slightly turned, and she gazed at the hovering white clouds in the sky with distant eyes.
Rumble…
Violent rumbles sounded from nearby.
A purple-robed male was currently practicing his fist techniques. Even though he was trying his best to suppress his powers, his punches still caused the air around him to rumble violently.
On some other patch of grassland, an aloof and majestic female sat meditating. She suddenly opened her emerald eyes and looked toward some location in the sky. “Hmm? Some insect wants to breach our spell formation?”
Upon hearing this, the male stopped throwing punches. “Which foolish cultivator is it this time?” He laughed heartily and said, “Naive fellow. I bet they’ll be crushed by our spell formation within a minute!”
Boom!
Just as he finished speaking, the spell formation crumbled apart.
Purple-robed male: “…”
Whoosh!
At this moment, an emerald-colored sword projection cut through the skies and slashed toward the location where the spell formation had been breached. The sword projection was so quick that it appeared like a fleeting flash of emerald lightning.
The meditating female had made her move. Moreover, she had used her full strength right from the beginning.
An individual who could shatter her spell formation was definitely incredibly powerful. In addition, that individual was most likely an enemy. With that being the case, what reason was there for her to hold back? It was only natural for her to go all out and seek to catch the enemy off guard.
Boom!
As if crashing into something, her mighty sword projection ground to a halt and exploded in a burst of emerald energy.
The female’s pupils constricted, and her expression became extremely grave. “Spatial power? The enemy is a supreme being of the Return to Void Stage?”
A dog-riding figure shot out from behind the explosion of energy.
“An Lin! It’s actually you?!”
The emerald-eyed female couldn’t help but yelp in surprise. Her beautiful eyes were filled with disbelief.
Initially, the female who was lying on the sheep’s back had been extremely indifferent toward the spell formation being breached. Her reaction was as if it was no big deal. After seeing that familiar figure, however, she stood up excitedly. She waved her arms and exclaimed, “Senior An Lin, you’re finally back!”
An Lin grinned upon seeing the familiar faces. “White Spirit Snake, Battle Goddess Bi Qiong. Battle God Zi Yang, long time no see!”
The people before him were none other than the friends that he had made in Zhan Qi Continent.
Battle Goddess Bi Qiong stopped speaking. Instead, she pursed her lips proudly.
Battle God Zi Yang had yet to come to his senses.
White Spirit Snake became the most hospitable of the three. She trod through the void toward An Lin and arrived before him in no time. Her pretty face was flushed red, and the look in her eyes was especially passionate. “How do you know about this place? Did you come to look for me?”
“Er…” An Lin was momentarily dazed. He didn’t expect for White Spirit Snake to dream up such a situation. He immediately stated his true intention, “No, I came here to investigate the reasons behind the changes on Earth.”
“Oh…” White Spirit Snake kicked the air under her feet. She was slightly disappointed by An Lin’s reply.
“It’s been two years since we last saw each other. White Spirit Snake, you’re even more beautiful now!” An Lin complimented.
“Really?” A cheerful smile spread across White Spirit Snake’s face.
White Spirit Snake had looked like a teenage girl when An Lin first met her. Presumably, she had been well-nourished during the time that they had been apart. Her development was outstanding, and she had already become a beautiful little Celestial Maiden.
Her pure white dress hugged her slender figure, and her pretty little face appeared like a smooth jade under the warm beams of sunshine. Her neck was pale and slender, and her ample bosom rose and fell in a rhythmic pattern.
Simply speaking, her beauty was already on an other-worldly level.
For some reason, Tian Lingling appeared in An Lin’s mind as he gazed at White Spirit Snake. A feeling of sympathy welled up in his heart.
At that time, both of them were petite and adorable lolis. Now, however, one had already become a beautiful Celestial Maiden, while the other was still a little loli…
This was the harsh nature of reality.
White Spirit Snake’s development was absolutely perfect.
An Lin involuntarily turned his gaze toward the humongous dairy cows below. Could it be that her development was as a result of drinking milk from those gigantic dairy cows?
He wanted to ask, yet he was too shy to ask.
Cow’s milk was drinkable, and it was also very nutritious. However, An Lin had always been curious about the person who had first discovered that cow’s milk was drinkable. What on Earth had they done to the dairy cow?
“That’s right. White Spirit Snake, what are you guys doing here? If my speculation is correct, then this place is the core of some spell formation, right?”
There was a hesitant look on White Spirit Snake’s face, and she avoided eye contact with An Lin.
“Master White, you can’t disclose this matter to him,” Battle Goddess Bi Qiong urged.
“That’s right, this is our Snake Spirit Clan’s own matter. We can’t disclose it to outsiders!” Battle God Zi Yang also spoke to remind her.
An Lin rolled his eyes at Battle God Zi Yang. “You actually said ‘our Snake Spirit Clan’? You, a great Battle God, have already been reduced to such a level?
“White Spirit Snake, do you view me as an outsider?” An Lin had an upset look as he glanced at the beautiful female before him.
“Heh, Master White isn’t a child anymore,” Battle God Zi Yang sneered. “Your persuasions will no longer work on her.”
“It’s not like that, Senior An Lin!” White Spirit Snake immediately denied An Lin’s accusation. She took a deep breath and gazed at An Lin seriously. “I’ll tell you. I’ll tell you everything that I know!”
Battle Goddess Bi Qiong: “…”
Battle God Zi Yang: “…”
