The golden shadow of the divine dragon let out a dragon's roar. Under Lin Chen's control, it immediately blasted onto the body of the Lizard Crocodile Demon Beast.
In an instant, the Lizard Crocodile Demon Beast was struck flying, pierced through mid-air by the dragon's shadow, its body exploding in the air, transforming into countless chunks of meat and fresh blood, scattering across the swamp.
As the Lizard Crocodile perished, the moment its flesh fell from the sky, countless unknown magical beasts suddenly emerged from various parts, devouring the Lizard Crocodile's corpse clean.
Lin Chen looked at those magical beasts, frowning slightly, thinking to himself that if he were to battle these beasts, he might not gain any advantage. Although these beasts were not as powerful as the earlier Lizard Crocodile, they won in numbers.
If conflict broke out, Lin Chen might not necessarily be their match.
Those beasts looked at Lin Chen; having witnessed Lin Chen's formidable power in slaying the Lizard Crocodile Demon Beast, they naturally dared not provoke him. However, they were truly starving, which forced them to take the risk and feast on the Lizard Crocodile's corpse. Dıscover more novels at n0velfire.net
They couldn't afford to care much, as they were nearly starving to death, and couldn't pay attention to Lin Chen's threat.
Looking at the magical beasts before him, Lin Chen felt a bit uneasy in his heart.
This level of magical beasts, in such numbers, if they banded together to deal with him, it could be extremely dangerous.
Lin Chen couldn't help but grumble inwardly, questioning why he ended up in such a place after teleporting.
Subsequently, Lin Chen hurriedly flew away from that place. Staying in the swamp for long would only attract other powerful magical beasts; encountering a few more like the Lizard Crocodile, Lin Chen could only await death.
Therefore, without hesitation, Lin Chen chose a direction at random based on his instincts and flew away.
At present, Lin Chen needed to find out how vast this swamp was to determine his position within the ruins.
However, Lin Chen found that flying in this world was significantly slower, mainly due to the strong world pressure affecting flight and the use of spiritual power.
Flying in one direction for nearly two hours, Lin Chen was shocked to discover that this world was much larger than he had imagined; at his current speed, he hadn't even flown out of the swamp in two hours.
Moreover, crucially, along the way, he encountered numerous beasts not weaker than the previous Lizard Crocodile, though Lin Chen managed to evade them through tactics.
Throughout the journey, Lin Chen was on edge, encountering several powerful beasts, and only managing to escape after a tough battle.
That's right, escaping. Given Lin Chen's current combat power, direct confrontation was not in his favor against those creatures. If he revealed all his cards, causing a big disturbance, it might instead plunge him into endless danger.
So Lin Chen thought, if combat could be avoided, he'd avoid it. His priority was to escape the swamp and understand the environment of the relic world.
Thinking this way, Lin Chen couldn't help but sigh; if only he had brought the Sky Howling Demon Wolf along, he could disregard these beasts and even give the Sky Howling Demon Wolf a meal to aid its evolution.
Lin Chen chose to head north based on the Star Map, but as he was cautiously flying, he suddenly raised an eyebrow, sensing two strong auras, which immediately made him stop in his tracks.
These auras seemed both distant and near.
Lin Chen dared not be negligent; though his Divine Sense was restricted, he still tried his best to probe around.
While releasing his Divine Soul to probe for the source of the dangerous aura, Lin Chen also subconsciously turned to flee.
All the way, although he encountered powerful beasts, none gave such an intense sense of crisis, so these two strong auras must originate from ahead.
Two powerful storms turned into tornadoes, driving the mud from numerous quagmires, forming a hurricane light column, clashing together, producing a massive sound, and at the moment of impact, countless mud and water exploded and fell.
Simultaneously, two powerful auras came from the direction Lin Chen was observing.
There stood two colossal figures, thousands of meters tall. One was a milky white giant worm, wholly bloated and decayed, making one nauseous at a glance.
The other was a gigantic black poisonous bee, its long legs dangling, with ten sharp claws, eight pairs of transparent wings flapping on its back, containing potent wind attribute power, and its teeth and spikes on its mouth seemed to possess deadly power.
Most crucially, the aura emanating from these two creatures was at the Creation Realm Fifth Level, much stronger than the Lizard Crocodile Lin Chen had previously encountered.
"Just how many such powerful magical beasts are there in this place?"
Looking at the battleground of the two beasts, Lin Chen secretly felt fortunate for his wisdom, realizing something was amiss and immediately retreating. Otherwise, he would have flown right into the center of their battle, being caught in the crossfire, barely escaping without serious harm.
At this moment, Lin Chen had no further thought of advancing, disregarding any opportunity, first escaping from here was most important.
Thus, Lin Chen turned to flee.
After fleeing for a full hour in another direction, distancing tens of thousands of miles from the battling beasts, Lin Chen internally sighed in relief and slowed his escape.
Lin Chen fled to an island. Throughout this escape, his spiritual power was vastly depleted, forcing him to recover for a while. Then, thinking it was too dangerous alone, he decided to release the Little Profound Turtle from the Second Layer Space of the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron to accompany him.
After all, this guy was a Xuanwu Descendant, and although its strength was similar to the Sky Howling Demon Wolf, its real power was far more than that.
At this moment, Lin Chen's Divine Soul condensed into a human shape, entering the Second Layer Space of the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron, only to see the Little Profound Turtle lying under the ten Star Maps, absorbing starlight, its face turning black.
Because after this period of cultivation, the eleventh Star Map had dimmed again, and even the tenth Star Map was somewhat dim.
It's worth noting that to illuminate the tenth Star Map, Lin Chen consumed nearly twenty million Low-grade Spirit Crystals.
