However, Meng Chao woke up in an instant. Gritting his teeth, he activated his vitality magnetic field and channeled his spirit energy into his skull, forming a layer that was like an air cushion to protect his soft brain from being hit by the hard skull. He firmly grasped his consciousness and fate in his hands.

He discovered that he had already passed through to Scarlet Peak.

The sea of clouds that had been under his feet just a moment ago was now churning above his head.

The spatial crack in the middle of the sea of clouds was closing up at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The outline of Thousand Blades Peak was instantly swallowed by the surging sea of clouds.

Thank goodness!

Meng Chao let out a slight sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he had caught hold of the once-in-a-lifetime window period and crossed over in time.

If he had hesitated for another three to five seconds when he was up on the rock wall, he would have either been crushed into meat paste by the closing spatial crack or randomly teleported to another place.

But now was not the time to completely relax his nerves.

He was still falling rapidly from a height of thousands of meters.

His frozen limbs, blood vessels, and even nerves had not fully recovered.

Moreover, he did not want to release the power of magnetic levitation and anti-gravity so early.

With his current state, he could certainly levitate in the air and slowly descend.

However, don’t forget, the Wolf King and Tiger King had already arrived at Scarlet Peak.

They were both battle group level powerhouses, comparable to Deity Realm superhumans of Dragon City. Their keen eyesight naturally far exceeded the physiological limits of a flesh and blood body.

If Meng Chao stayed in the air for one more second, it would increase his risk of being discovered by them.

Although the surrounding fog had not completely dispersed, the Wolf King and Tiger King should still be huddling together and hiding.

But Meng Chao did not want to take unnecessary risks.

Therefore, he simply kept his head down and feet above his body. His hands were tightly pressed against his legs, and his posture of minimizing the area of the wind breaking remained unchanged.

Like a ground-penetrating bomb, he fell straight from the sky to the ground.

In the blink of an eye, he fell a full kilometer.

It was not until he was three to five hundred meters away from the ground that he activated the magnetic levitation and anti-gravity force for the first time.

However, his vitality magnetic field only expanded for half a second. In order to slightly ease the lightning-fast momentum, he withdrew his force and continued to fall freely.

It was not until he was at most a hundred meters away from the ground that he activated his magnetic levitation and anti-gravity ability for the second time.

The distance was so short that it was not enough to reduce his falling speed to zero.

He still fell like a rock from a cliff, whizzing toward the ground.

It was not until he was about to land heavily that he circulated his Ripple Force and punched the ground twice.

By then, Meng Chao had already cultivated Ripple Force to the highest level.

With a thought, the muscles all over his body were like layers of waves, surging endlessly.

Power that was both firm and soft surged into the ground that was as hard as iron. Although two large crisscrossing spider web cracks were created on the ground, there was no sound whatsoever that could cause the surrounding wolves, tigers, and leopards to be alarmed.

Meng Chao also used his two fists to change the direction of the impact. From the ninety degree drop that had originally made him perpendicular to the ground, he became parallel to the ground and flew horizontally.

He flew for a full thirty to fifty meters.

He flew into a sparse forest and rolled on the soft weeds dozens of times.

Only then did he manage to reduce the huge impact from the three-thousand-meter fall through the spatial crack.

Even so, the surface of his totem armor had still been smoothed out.

The weeds that he rolled over had also turned into a dark patch, emitting white smoke. Due to the strong friction, they had been scraped past the ignition point, instantly burning into charcoal.

“Phew…”

It was only at this moment that Meng Chao was able to breathe a long sigh of relief.

His mouth was only filled with a fishy sweetness, and the gaps between his teeth were filled with bloody foam.

His internal organs must have suffered quite a severe shock.

Nevertheless, weighing it against the time he had bought, the price was completely bearable.

Meng Chao licked the gaps between his teeth with the tip of his tongue and swallowed the traces of fresh blood back into his stomach.

He ignored the pain from the bone fractures in his limbs and crawled up.

First, he held his breath and checked the situation around him. After confirming that there were no other living creatures that posed a threat to him, he climbed up a mountain that he had locked onto in mid-air at full speed.

The mountain was not high and not as smooth as Thousand Blades Peak either. Instead, it was full of weeds and vines.

Meng Chao climbed to the top of the mountain in no time. He crawled on the ground and gently pushed aside the weeds in front of him. Then he looked down at the entire situation on Scarlet Peak.

He first found the iconic scarlet waterfall.

With the scarlet waterfall as the coordinate axis, he could draw a map with the information given by Ice Storm. Next, he could match it with the scenery before him, as well as everything he had seen in Kanus’ vision through the Ancient Dream Saintess that day.

To his left, between the hill and the scarlet waterfall, there was a dark red swamp.

According to Ice Storm, this place had also been one of the main battlefields where the Holy Mountain battle had been the most brutal three thousand years ago.

It was obvious from the dense remains of evil energy puppets and inactivated totem armors that were trapped in the red swamp.

The number of killing machines that were left there was ten times more than what Meng Chao had seen in the valley earlier. It was simply a large-scale “puppet graveyard.”

The complexity of its size and structure was also much greater than the ancient battlefield ruins that Meng Chao had previously seen.

Even though it was riddled with holes, rust, and covered in a thick carpet of fungi, the mysterious and complicated structures described the Holy Light and totem power in a way that was completely different from the technology on Earth.

Considering the fact that there were remains of so many evil energy puppets and totem armors, they might not have lost their combat ability completely.

They were likely in a hibernation state and were slowly recovering. Any unusual movement would wake them up and unleash destructive power that had accumulated for three thousand years.

Even a bold person like Meng Chao secretly broke out in cold sweat and restricted his breathing and heartbeat to the maximum.

On Meng Chao’s right, there was a relatively flat col between the diamond-shaped ridge on Scarlet Peak, which looked like the back of a flood dragon.

The col was covered in dense forests both inside and outside. Perhaps because the terrain was relatively low and the rainwater that was rich in spirit energy and nutrients flowed into the col to nourish the trees, the dense forests grew exceptionally luxuriant and wild. Towering trees that were dozens of meters tall were everywhere. Together with the red streams that were formed when the scarlet waterfall flowed to the ground, it gave the impression of a primeval forest.

Meng Chao narrowed his eyes and stared at the top of the primeval forest.

He did not know whether it was an illusion or not, but he seemed to see several burning flames of blood.

He was akin to a hungry beast that was hiding in the darkness while resisting the urge to show its fangs and claws.

According to Ice Storm, this mountain pass was the only way from Scarlet Peak to the Holy Mountain’s peak.

If the Wolf King and Tiger King really wanted to kill the Lion King, they could only choose to ambush him there.

Otherwise, with the Lion King’s powerful strength as the Gold Clan chief, Horn of Destruction, he would definitely be able to detect the Wolf King and Tiger King in the plains or wilderness.

Also, Meng Chao had peered into Kanus’ vision before this through the Ancient Dream Saintess. At that time, the cunning Wolf King’s vision had shown him to be in the middle of this forest.

“The Wolf King and Tiger King must be hiding in the depths of the forest, waiting for the Lion King’s arrival.

“Even in his dreams, the Lion King wouldn’t believe that someone could beat him to it and ambush him first. There’s a high chance that he’ll fall into the trap.

“The future of my previous life also proved that the Lion King and Tiger King did not leave the Holy Mountain alive. It seemed that both of them were injured, but the Wolf King took advantage of them.

“Ice Storm told me that the normal entrance to Scarlet Peak should be in the southeast, under a floating mountain range that looks like a furnace. Ah, I’ve found it.

“So, as long as I can reach the bottom of this floating mountain range in time, stop the Lion King’s exploration team, show Platinum Embrace’s lion tooth pendant, gain the Lion King’s trust, or at least arouse his suspicion, I can change the future!

“Wait a minute. That’s…”

Just as Meng Chao made up his mind, a few small black spots crawled into his sight at the edge of the forest, causing his pupils to shrink to the maximum.

Meng Chao rubbed his eyes hard until tears the size of beans formed. Using his tears as binoculars and the crazy stimulation of his retina, cone cells, and optic nerves, he was able to barely make out what was going on. A team of furious lion warriors had entered the forest!

“Not good!

“We’re still half a step too late!

“The Lion King and his exploration team have entered the forest. They’re about to step into the Wolf King and Tiger King’s encirclement!”

Meng Chao was both angry and anxious. His two rows of teeth seemed to be stuffed with gravel, and he was gnashing his teeth so hard that they were cracking.

But now was not the time to be frustrated.

‘I have to remain calm. The battle in the jungle hasn’t begun yet. There must be a way to warn the Lion King.

‘What do I do?

‘Try and stand in front of the Lion King?’

Meng Chao immediately rejected the idea.

He had fallen at the edge of Scarlet Peak, a long way from the forest.

Even with the force of spirit power at maximum speed, it would only take three to five minutes or less to get there.

However, the wolf and tiger would discover them.

If nothing else, the sound barrier he created at supersonic speed was not something he could hide.

What if the wolf or the tiger tried to kill him, presenting an unexpected distraction?

He did not think that he could survive a full-force blow from the Doomsday Wolf or Violent Blade.

Besides, he was not familiar with the situation in the forest at all. If he were to go up to the Lion King like a headless fly, it would be suicidal. He might end up in the Wolf King and Tiger King’s encirclement instead!

Was he going to remind the Lion King with the loudest voice by stimulating his lungs, throat, vocal cords, and mouth with his spirit energy right there?

It might be possible to change the time and place.

However, this was Scarlet Peak. The dark-red waterfall was crashing into the deep pool brutally, and it was already producing deafening roars. Moreover, the sky there was covered by a sea of surging clouds, and furious winds roared nonstop.

Being hounded by these two loud sounds, Meng Chao was not confident that he could project his voice into the forest precisely and into Lion King’s ears at such a distance!
