"Boom~~~" Ye Chen and the others, who were moving forward in the darkness, suddenly heard a faint explosion and their expressions changed drastically.
This place is full of dark creatures, and only the fat guy and his group can cause explosions. This situation can only mean that they have been attacked by dark creatures.
“It’s a new race of dark creatures!” Ye Chen said softly, quickening his pace as he turned back.
Those that attempt to breach spatial rifts are not lone dark creatures; they must be an entire group.
No matter what kind of race it is, it would be difficult for the territory to resist given its current strength. If he doesn't hurry back, his hometown might be destroyed!
"Chirp~~~Chirp chirp~~~" Just then, the red-crowned bird that had been scouting ahead suddenly returned, chirping anxiously and blocking Ye Chen's path.
"A dark creature is passing by ahead, and it's very powerful!" Ye Ying said, looking ahead. Just looking at it made her forehead break out in a fine layer of sweat.
"This?" Ye Chen was stunned, but there was nothing he could do. The dark creature that Ye Ying described as very strong must be something they couldn't deal with right now.
On both sides of this road, there are groups of dark creatures, so they can only wait for the dark creature to leave.
"How is it? Is it gone?" Ye Chen asked. The darkness ahead was silent and seemingly without any movement, so Ye Chen had no idea whether the dark creature was still there.
"No! It stopped and is heading towards the Flame Lizard's territory!" Ye Ying exclaimed, her expression changing.
The Flame Lizards were a group of dark creatures located to their left and front. They had a faint dragon bloodline and were at least at the third rank. Yet, this dark creature walked in so brazenly without any fear.
"Roar~~~" "Roar~~~"
Suddenly, a huge roar of beasts rang out from the darkness to the left. But if you listened carefully, you would find that many of the roars were filled with angry, painful and desperate cries.
Moreover, waves of heat emanated from the left front, and flashes of fire occasionally illuminated a tall figure.
"It! It! It's feeding on fire lizards! Even a level 4 attack doesn't have any effect on it!" Ye Ying exclaimed, her pretty face filled with horror.
These things startled not only her, but also Ye Xi and the others, and even Ye Chen.
How strong is this dark creature that ventures alone into a horde of dark creatures and feeds on fire lizards around level 3?
"Are you sure you didn't see wrong?" Ye Xi asked incredulously, as they couldn't even imagine such a powerful force.
"There's no mistake, that's one? A very tall orc? About the same height as the mountain gods! But it's surrounded by a lot of black energy, or maybe death energy?" Ye Ying said uncertainly, as she had never seen such a creature before.
However, upon hearing these words, a tall figure flashed through Ye Chen's mind.
“It’s a Dark Behemoth! And it’s a Behemoth that has fallen from at least the Gold level!” Ye Chen said.
The Behemoths are a race whose strength is comparable to that of dragons; in fact, they feed directly on dragons. The Flame Lizard has a trace of dragon blood, so it's not surprising that it was targeted by the Dark Behemoths.
Unexpectedly, they encountered a Dark Behemoth along the way, and judging from the situation, it was a Dark Behemoth with strength close to the 7th rank, which could be said to be the top power in the entire trial space.
Only a powerful Dark Behemoth could withstand the Flame Lizard's attack and ignore its 4th-tier flame power.
"Find a way around; we can't stay here. If it spots us, we're dead!"
"Moreover, judging from its previous route, it is very likely to be heading towards the territory. We must leave as soon as possible and return to the trial space!"
Ye Chen spoke up, calling over the Red Bird and Ye Ying, and they began rushing towards the planned return route.
On the other side, the fat man and his companions, who were desperately resisting the dark ghouls, suddenly felt that the dark ghouls outside the city walls had stopped moving and their attack efficiency had decreased significantly.
Some dark ghouls even hesitated before choosing to leave, or even went directly to the trial space through the spatial rift, instead of continuing to attack the territory.
"What? What's going on?" the fat man asked in confusion, the sudden reduction in pressure making him feel instantly relieved.
It's important to understand that the Dark Ghoul population is enormous; the magic crystal bombs outside have only cleared out a small portion of them, and now they are truly at the city's gates.
But at this critical juncture, a large number of dark ghouls began to retreat, or even flee, which was truly puzzling.
"This? Black! Black! A creature of darkness! It, it, it also feels fear, fear of death?" Zhou Wenbin asked in confusion, but no one could give an answer.
"The only reason the dark creatures could flee is that even more powerful dark creatures have appeared, and they must be the kind of powerful creatures at the top of the food chain!" Lu Zi'ang said, looking up into the depths of darkness, his eyes filled with horror.
"What did you see? A powerful dark creature is coming?" Everyone was stunned and asked in unison.
"Impossible! Impossible! Impossible! How could such a powerful dark creature appear now? Shouldn't it be at least half a year before it appears?" Lu Zi'ang muttered, finding it hard to believe what he was seeing.
A Dark Behemoth with a strength of up to level 7 is powerful enough to roam freely throughout the entire trial space!
"What exactly is it? Explain yourself!" the fat man said, nudging him. But Lu Zi'ang had a look of utter despair, his eyes filled with sorrow.
"No way! We're all going to die here! No, no, we have to leave! We have to get out of here quickly, it definitely can't enter the trial space, we'll be safe as long as we get back to the trial space!" Lu Zi'ang said incoherently, turning around to control his floating island to leave.
"What's going on? What is that thing? What will happen to Ye Chen if we leave like this? He hasn't come back yet!" The fat man grabbed him, wanting to understand the situation. Moreover, Ye Chen hadn't returned yet, and leaving like this would undoubtedly put Ye Chen in a deadly situation.
"We can't wait any longer! If we wait for him to come back, we'll all die here!" Lu Zi'ang cried, his light makeup smudged.
"Chirp~~~" At this moment, the sound of a red bird rang out in the air. Le Xinghai looked up and his face immediately lit up with joy.
"Ye Chen is back!"
