Chapter 608: Evaporated Civilization
Chapter 608: Evaporated Civilization
Right in front of us, shrouded in darkness, was a terrifying skeleton!
It was a huge, hideous skeleton.
The whole body seemed to be woven from a series of muscles and nerve fibers, winding and coiling, with bones all over the body.
Looking up, the skull was enough to cover the sky, like a towering mountain; while the limbs and torso were like a tangled forest of sharp blades and thorns, intertwined in the darkness.
What was even more frightening was that there seemed to be a faint ominous breath of life in the body of this terrifying skeleton, gradually flowing and lingering.
At this moment, the star fell.
All the stars that had once shone brightly gradually dimmed, and the entire universe was shrouded in deathly silence.
Although Li Yang and Jiang Xiaoxiao expected that this world would be very different from what they were familiar with, they still shuddered when they saw such a scene with their own eyes.
This horrifying skeleton is like the remains of an evil giant beast, huge and unbearable, with eyes wide open after death.
Its coiled and tangled muscle fibers are like thorns, as if they are always thirsty for the blood of life.
And the most disturbing thing is that there is still a trace of strange life in this skeleton, like a dying fire that is about to burn out and burn the world again from time to time.
"In this universe... such a huge creature was born?"
Jiang Xiaoxiao stepped back a few steps and looked at the behemoth in front of him, as if he was looking at a statue.
Li Yang looked solemn as he stared at the nightmare scene in front of him and said in a deep voice:
"This guy... I don't know how long he has lived. An existence that has lived for an unknown period of time, but has not yet died, has been imprisoned in this darkness..."
"After so many years of drifting... I'm afraid this thing has already nurtured its own civilization."
"I'd like to see if there's anything interesting on it."
As he spoke, Li Yang cast his eyes on the head of the huge skeleton.
There were golden cracks scattered on the black skull.
It looked ancient and mysterious, and it also revealed a decadent and dilapidated atmosphere.
A closer look revealed the remains of cities on the surface of the huge skull.
Countless exquisite buildings, crisscrossing streets, and humanistic sculptures that can be seen from time to time, all engraved on the golden cracks.
This seemed to be the so-called "civilization" that had been nurtured on this huge skeleton in Li Yang's mind.
But now it has long been reduced to ruins, and has been completely abandoned in this dead silence.
"Well... it seems that there was indeed a high level of civilization on this giant."
Li Yang nodded, with a subtle complex look in his eyes.
He slowly raised his hand and carved out an area on the huge head, which was covered with dense cracks, and faintly exuded an ancient and mysterious atmosphere in the darkness.
"Try it, starting from this area."
As soon as the voice fell, Li Yang and Jiang Xiaoxiao rushed forward like a whirlwind.
When they approached the ruins, they found that it was already a densely packed ancient capital.
Countless circular or polygonal buildings were crowded together, and in the middle was a wide and magnificent main street.
On both sides of the main street, there were rows of human sculptures, with various shapes and lifelike.
And deeper in, there was a towering palace-like building, solemn and majestic.
The entire capital city seems to have been abandoned for tens of thousands of years, but it still retains the most brilliant brilliance of its heyday.
Li Yang scanned the ancient city, and suddenly, he seemed to feel an ancient and mysterious power flowing from the remaining bricks and buildings.
As if traveling through time, that power seemed to bring his consciousness back to the old times tens of thousands of years ago.
A strange and biting chill suddenly surged into my heart.
"It seems... this civilization should have been quite prosperous."
Jiang Xiaoxiao looked at the ruins and said with a complex look.
"But later, I don't know why it fell and evolved into what it is today... I always feel that there is some kind of dangerous factor hidden in it."
"Let's go and continue to explore deeper." Li Yang pondered for a moment, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
"Maybe we can find some clues and answers in the depths of this ancient city."
Before they finished speaking, the two of them disappeared in the endless black fog in the city.
Soon, they arrived in front of the majestic palace building.
This palace was built of countless regular crystal-like materials, shining with a faint green luster in the dark capital, like a lonely lamp standing in the dark night.
The huge city gate was open, and a long passage leading directly to the interior of the palace appeared in front of the two.
"It seems that this is the central area of the entire capital."
Jiang Xiaoxiao looked around and found that everything seemed to be related to this road, so he couldn't help but say so.
Li Yang nodded solemnly:
"The buildings are still intact, with no signs of damage, but there is no one here..."
"Could it be that all the people in this civilization disappeared overnight?"
"It's really weird..."
As soon as the words fell, the two of them walked side by side on the dark and strange road.
The dust accumulated over the years filled the entire path in the palace, and only the dull sound of footsteps echoed under their feet.
The two walked to the end of the road and finally saw the interior of a huge and magnificent hall deep in the palace.
The entire hall was made of crystal as transparent as diamonds, like a dazzling treasure box.
Even on the ceiling, there was a huge polyhedron relief inlaid on it, emitting a hazy glow.
Following the glow, the two suddenly found that there was a strange statue standing in the center of the hall.
The statue was completely black, as if it was carved from some unknown material.
Standing with his body stretched out, his face facing up. The overall shape was extremely rough, like a primitive and wild art style.
The most eye-catching thing was that on the face of the statue, there was a pair of suddenly stunning eyes, like two blood-green lakes, flashing a strange and fascinating light!
Li Yang and Jiang Xiaoxiao had experienced countless scenes since leaving the source universe, but when they saw things of this level, they still felt an unknown sense of oppression.
It was as if these eyes were not dead objects, but a kind of existence between life and death, containing endless unknowns and power... or perhaps an illusion of the past.
The air suddenly became solidified and deadly, without any breath of life, and the entire space seemed to be oppressed by some mysterious force.
The two looked at each other, took a deep breath, and slowly walked forward.
At this moment, a strange force suddenly burst out from those eyes and rushed towards the two of them!
Time seemed to stand still at that moment, and Li Yang and Jiang Xiaoxiao's consciousness fell into an unprecedented chaos and confusion, and everything around them seemed to begin to distort and deform!
