Chapter 303 - 303 A Strange Occurrence
303 A Strange Occurrence
When she heard this voice, Aloy suddenly opened her eyes. What entered her line of sight was Shen Fei’s slightly concerned face.
“Did… Did you save me?” Aloy’s face was filled with shock. She did not understand what had just happened.
Moreover, the Unihorn Wyrm that had been so overbearing just now had also disappeared.
“Where’s the Unihorn Wyrm?”
“There was no Unihorn Wyrm. This is the secret wormhole realm. You accidentally touched a kind of grass that temporarily makes people hallucinate when they enter the secret realm,” Shen Fei explained patiently. “This grass is called illusion grass. It’s a unique plant in the secret wormhole realm. When a person inhales it, it will cause them to hallucinate for a while.”
“Keep this in your mouth to resist the temptations of the illusion grass.” Shen Fei placed a pill into Aloy’s mouth.
“Okay, got it. I never thought that this trick would affect me so quickly this time. Before I realized it, I was already under its spell.” Aloy heaved a sigh of relief, but her expression quickly changed. She hurriedly asked, “How did you get in? How did you know I would be here?”
“I knew you would come to the wormhole. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have taken my scroll.” Shen Fei chuckled as he pulled Aloy up from the ground.
Hearing this, Aloy’s face froze. She thought for a long while before she realized that Shen Fei was already on to her. Immediately, two patches of red appeared on her face, and she was a little embarrassed.
Then, Shen Fei’s face turned serious. “Aloy, can you tell me everything about the wormhole?”
“I’m sorry, I… I can’t tell you.” Aloy bit her red lips, her face showed her conflicting thoughts, and in the end, she shook her head slowly.
“Alright, then I won’t say anymore.” In the end, Shen Fei did not continue to pry.
Then, the two of them continued forward into the depths of the secret realm. As they ventured deeper, Shen Fei discovered that the space inside the wormhole was getting larger. Not only that, the surrounding Qi was also getting thicker.
However, in the next second, the ground began to shake, and huge cracks spread out beneath them. The scenery quaked and it really seemed like the entire realm was coming to an end.
“Roar!”
With an angry roar, a giant scorpion that was tens of meters long broke out from the ground. The scorpion’s body was as black as ink, and it exuded a poisonous mist, causing the air around it to darken.
It bared its sharp chelicerae and charged at Shen Fei and Aloy. Its aura was menacing and suffocating all at once.
“Gasp!” Aloy could not help but gasp.
“Don’t worry. It’s just a lower Count-rank beast,” Shen Fei calmly said. He summoned the Flame Owl. “Flame Owl, Blazing Charge!”
In the next second, the Flame Owl flared up with raging fire. It turned into a fiery streak and charged straight at the Black Scorpion.
Boom!
In an instant, the Flame Owl’s attack struck the Black Scorpion’s body. A terrifying force billowed out, instantly destroying everything within a hundred-meter radius. Smoke and dust filled the air.
After a long time, the smoke dispersed. When Shen Fei checked the scene, the Black Scorpion had already collapsed on the ground.
“Gulp…” Seeing this, Aloy gulped nervously. Her face paled and her body trembled.
Even though the Black Scorpion was a Count-rank beast, it was killed by Shen Fei in less than three moves. His strength was too terrifying.
“Let’s go,” Shen Fei said and walked deeper into the wormhole.
Aloy quickly followed him with a look of admiration. However, after a few steps, she stopped.
‘This is wrong! Why did the wormhole suddenly move by itself?’
Aloy seemed to have understood something and said worriedly, “Shen Fei, this is bad!”
Shen Fei muttered to himself, “Could it be a horde? Is it going to explode again?”
He raised his head and gazed into the distance ahead of them. He could vaguely sense a violent fluctuation of spiritual energy…
Boom!
Sure enough, in the next moment, an extremely powerful pressure suddenly enveloped the entire secret realm.
‘This pressure… Could it be that an Emperor-rank spirit beast has come into being?’ Aloy’s expression suddenly changed.
As long as a high-grade spirit beast or exotic beast was born, it would cause a natural phenomenon. The wormholes would be affected as well, and the next beast horde would happen sooner than expected.
“Roar!” A deafening roar echoed through the skies, and the sound waves shook the earth as if it would tear the land apart.
In the next instant, a dazzling stream of light streaked across the sky, bringing with it a sharp, ear-piercing whistle. The ground in front of them was crawling with Spider Kings.
[Spider King]
[Rank: Marquis, High-grade]
[HealthL 70]
[AttackL 80]
[Defense: 45]
[Spirit: 30]
[Speed: 70]
The swarm of Spider Kings moved quickly.
“Shen Fei, look! What’s going on?” Aloy cried anxiously as she looked at the strange phenomenon in front of her.
Shen Fei followed suit and looked in the direction of the sound. He saw a dense and endless amount of spiders swarming toward them, quickly surrounding them.
Each spider exuded a thick bloodthirsty aura that was bone-chilling and extremely cruel.
Looking at the strange phenomenon around him, Shen Fei muttered, “These spiders are not your average spider.”
“Shen Fei, these spiders are very powerful, and there are so many of them. We can’t kill them all!” Aloy’s eyes were filled with despair.
Shen Fei nodded and fearlessly said, “I know, but I’d like to test their strength! Flame Owl, Flaming Bramble Inferno!”
“Coo!”
The Flame Owl spread its wings and swooped down, its body showering large sparks like falling meteors, hailing down on the spider swarm. A huge mushroom cloud rose into the sky, accompanied by shocking explosions that rang out continuously and shook the entire area.
The area was soon covered in a sea of fire that roiled like boiling lava. The scorching flames spread out and devoured all the spiders.
...
“Coo, coo!” The Flame Owl roared at the sky. The flames on its body rose and formed a giant fireball. Then, it charged at the spiders with terrifying force.
Whoosh!
In an instant, the fireball tore through the area and pierced the thick swam like a comet, leaving a bloody path. Wherever the fireball passed, the spiders died one after another, and their bodies turned into ash.
“Screech!”
Seeing this, the surrounding spiders immediately let out angry cries and fled frantically. The Flame Owl covered a distance of thousand meters in one swoop, scaring the spiders even further.
However, Shen Fei frowned and suddenly shouted, “Now, run!”
“Oh!” Hearing Shen Fei’s words, Aloy quickly schooled her emotions and turned to flee.
With a rustling sound, they retreated quickly and ran a good distance away.
“Roar!”
At that moment, a loud lion’s roar sounded from the depths of the secret realm again, and a huge golden lion suddenly jumped out from nowhere.
This lion was about 150 to 180 meters large. Its entire body was golden, and it shone brilliantly. The , and it exuded a terrifying pressure.
...
“Roar!” The lion let out a furious roar, causing the surrounding air to vibrate as the soundwaves rolled out.
The weaker Spider Kings died on the spot.
