Gu Lingxiao sat alone in a dimly lit corner. He didn't know many people, nor was he interested in getting to know them. Instead, he enjoyed being alone.
I took a sip of baijiu, the spicy taste filling my mouth, and then blew it all away in one breath. I didn't feel anything, not a hint of drunkenness.
A girl came over shortly afterward, carrying some food.
"Brother Xiao, why are you here all alone?"
The person who arrived was Xiao Ran, whom we hadn't seen in a long time.
"What's up?"
"I saw you were all alone here and I was worried you'd be bored. What would you like to eat? I'll get it for you." She wore a long purple dress and light makeup, and spoke softly and carefully.
Gu Lingxiao chuckled and pinched Xiao Ran's neck. "Stop with your little schemes. This is an era where the strong rule. If you want to live well, try becoming an evolved being."
The moment it released its grip, it vanished from its spot, and at the same time, a yellow crystal fell onto the table, spinning several times before stopping.
"Cough cough cough," Xiao Ran coughed and collapsed to the ground, watching the yellow crystal in front of her stop spinning.
His eyes were somewhat confused, and after a long while, he slowly reached out and grasped a crystal.
The night passed quickly.
Early in the morning, Gu Lingchuan found Gu Lingxiao and went to a room where Lin Yu was also present.
The area that suddenly appeared earlier has undergone new changes.
"Tell me the details," Gu Lingxiao said, intrigued.
"I've been monitoring that area. This morning, an evolved creature was chased by an alien and wandered in. I thought it would die like before, but from the perspective of the animal I control, both the evolved creature and the alien were safe and sound. I sent that animal to follow, but it lost contact. Well, not exactly lost contact, but rather lost communication with me. From the perspective of another animal, the animal that entered that area is still alive. That area must have blocked my abilities."
"I'll go take a look," Gu Lingxiao said, getting up to leave.
"Wait a minute," Gu Lingchuan called out to Gu Lingxiao.
"The situation is unclear, so don't go in. Never mind, I'll go with you." Gu Lingchuan knew Gu Lingxiao too well.
Okay.
The two quickly headed to that area.
At their pace, the two of them arrived here in less than an hour. They circled the area, which was less than an acre in size, and could even see trees on the other side.
No matter how hard Gu Lingxiao and his companion searched, they couldn't find the animal that Lin Yu had lost contact with.
The two grabbed a few more zombies and threw them in, keeping a close eye on each other's movements. But the moment a zombie turned around a small mound and blocked their view, it vanished.
After a few more attempts, it disappeared immediately as soon as it was out of their sight.
"This is too bizarre."
Gu Lingchuan's interpretation was completely useless, because in his mental realm, this area was just normal soil and withered trees.
After observing for a few more days without finding anything, just as the two were about to leave, an extremely beautiful nine-tailed fox appeared inside. It was pure white, with a red line drawn out from the corner of its eyes, and a pattern like a rubbed flower on its forehead. Perhaps because they had seen so many evolved creatures and aliens of various shapes, Gu Lingxiao and the other did not find anything unusual about it.
Gu Lingchuan could also see this creature in his mental realm.
I subconsciously used my interpretive abilities.
"A transcendent being that has entered the first stage of the extraordinary sequence—the 'garbled' stage..."
Before he could even finish reading, an overwhelming sense of weakness caused his mental domain to instantly shrink back into his body, making it impossible for him to continue using his powers.
Gu Lingxiao teleported to Gu Lingchuan's side, helped him up, and then turned to look at the white fox inside.
Gu Lingxiao met those eyes directly, as if the other person could see him too.
Its eyes were extremely expressive, unlike those of a wild beast or an evolved creature; they were more like those of a human.
The next second, the white fox inside lightly jumped as if it were about to leap out, but after closing the distance, it instantly disappeared.
"Those are extraordinary beings that have entered the extraordinary sequence." Gu Lingchuan, who had recovered, felt a splitting headache and no strength in his body.
Just wanting to check the other party's level almost made Gu Lingchuan faint.
"We'll talk about it when we get back," Gu Lingxiao said, carrying Gu Lingxiao on his back, and they both vanished instantly.
Quickly return to the nearest Bluefish survivor base.
Seeing Gu Lingchuan unconscious, Lin An anxiously asked, "What happened?"
"I don't know, we'll tell you when he wakes up."
Lin Yu and Bai Ling arrived quickly. While they were checking, Lin Yu was also observing the animals. He naturally saw the white fox and also noticed that Gu Lingchuan seemed to be having a problem.
"What happened?" Lin Yu asked the same question.
Gu Lingxiao shook his head. "Before he collapsed from exhaustion, he said something about becoming a transcendent being who had entered the extraordinary sequence. I guess he probably used his mental domain to analyze the white fox, which exhausted him and caused him to faint."
"We'll discuss the specifics when he wakes up."
Bai Ling stood carefully by Gu Lingchuan's bedside, gently stroking his face.
Just how powerful were these extraordinary beings that they could drain Gu Lingchuan of his mental and physical strength in an instant?
Judging from the situation, it's probably very large inside; it can't be what you see from the outside. Perhaps it's another world inside.
There should be a lot of resources inside!
Gu Lingxiao stood at the door, looking at the sky, thinking about these things.
The next day, Gu Lingchuan still hadn't woken up, but his condition had improved considerably, and he should be fully recovered and awake in a few more days.
Another day passed, and Gu Lingchuan had almost fully recovered, just waiting to wake up.
Three days later, Gu Lingchuan woke up from his coma.
Mentally, he has almost recovered, but physically he is very weak and needs to eat a lot of food or absorb super energy.
Bai Ling gave him several stage-three evolution crystals.
As the body absorbs the nutrients, it recovers rapidly.
"Don't take such risks in the future, okay? I was so worried about you," Bai Ling said, frowning.
"Okay, it won't happen again." He didn't expect it to be this serious.
"What happened that day?" Bai Ling continued to ask.
"The information we deciphered was very limited. All we knew was that the other party was an extraordinary being who had entered the extraordinary sequence, but the number of extraordinary stages was still garbled," Gu Lingchuan said, recalling the information he had seen that day.
Where is Ling Xiao?
"I don't know, but I saw it last night."
Although Lin Yu would monitor the surroundings, he couldn't possibly keep an eye on everyone every moment. Nobody would like that, and besides, he couldn't possibly keep an eye on one person every second.
His animal perspective can only be used for tamed, bound evolved creatures; ordinary animals cannot share his perspective.
You can only communicate with the animal and learn about its findings after it returns to your vicinity from its exploration.
“I have a bad feeling. Let’s see if Lin Yu can find Ling Xiao,” Gu Lingchuan said.
"good"
After Lin Yu agreed, his eyes dimmed. As time went by, Gu Lingchuan's bad premonition grew stronger.
