Only My Way

#565 - New and old corpses

‘Although I don't know what's really going on, this place seems quite safe for me?’

‘…Well, this is quite a bizarre development.’

He stood atop the highest point of the many ruins.

After gazing intently at the unknown lights emitting a soft glow above him.

Although he was a bit curious about what those lights were.

He could sense a special power in the air preventing people from flying high, so he ultimately decided not to court disaster.

He simply stood there, silently observing the surroundings.

How should he put it…

The scene before him was still a wasteland.

However.

Compared to before.

He could see more things now.

He could also see some pitted holes and various crooked marks.

Which allowed him to have more thoughts about the battle that year…

For example, several kilometers ahead.

He saw a sword mark stretching for thousands of meters, with a depth that directly pierced through the metal barrier at the top, allowing people to look up at the deep upper space…

Gazing at that sword mark from afar.

Even though he couldn't get close to inspect it due to the air restriction.

Ling Wuyuan could still easily determine that the creator of that sword mark was the powerful expert who had forcibly cleaved open the outer defense layer of this ancient ruin. It was simple and unadorned violence…

Presumably.

Back then, the other party didn't care about the air restriction power here at all.

They just forcibly fought their way in…

Currently.

Ling Wuyuan didn't have that ability yet.

Besides this.

After surveying for a while.

Ling Wuyuan also found some ancient remains near some ruins.

There wasn't a single complete corpse.

Without exception.

They were all incredibly fragmented.

They weren't even worthy of being called fossils, just fragments of corpses.

After actively approaching to inspect them.

Using the knowledge he possessed, and roughly piecing together the fragmented remains that were scattered everywhere.

Before long, based on the skeletons and many related characteristics, Ling Wuyuan quickly determined that these ancient remains should belong to a powerful race of creatures whose appearance was similar to humans, but with an average height of nearly two and a half meters, and a very tall and thin body, possessing at least four slender arms.

Along the way.

By observing some armor fragments still worn on the remains.

Ling Wuyuan immediately understood that these humanoid creatures were the masters of this ancient ruin with extremely powerful technology.

However.

Even with such technology.

They still died.

Killed by a cultivator.

Even the war fortresses they painstakingly created were reduced to ancient ruins, sealed deep underground for a long time.

Until recently, when they were dug out…

After thinking about it.

Ling Wuyuan chose to reach out his hand.

He casually picked up a piece of the remains to examine it.

In his eyes.

That thing wasn't even comparable to dried cured meat.

Although there was still a layer of dry, translucent fascia-like substance on the surface of the bone.

The overall structure of that bone had long evolved into a structure similar to a hollow fossil.

The originally extremely full and plump flesh and blood vessels within.

Had long been completely eroded by the passage of time…

After holding it in his hand and observing it.

Soon.

As Ling Wuyuan's palm exerted a little force.

Cracking sounds…

Began to gradually emanate from his palm.

Before long.

The fossil bone he held in his hand was forcibly ground into tiny powder.

At the same time.

The expression on Ling Wuyuan's face also became much more serious.

At this moment.

Although he didn't know what kind of strength the owners of these remains possessed when they were alive.

He at least knew his own strength.

Just now.

In order to grind that long-decayed fragment of remains into dust, he had used fully fifty to sixty percent of his strength!

Although it was purely brute force.

Without using any skills or true energy.

It was still a brute force that could be completely described as immense power!!

A punch down.

Killing an ordinary [Spirit Nurturing Realm] cultivator wouldn't be a problem at all.

However.

These long-dead unknown creatures, even if it was just a fragment of an old bone that had already been transformed into a fossil, required him to use such a degree of power to crush it…

This situation.

Prevented Ling Wuyuan from not taking it seriously!

He knew that if the other party was alive.

Perhaps, the other party's true strength was at least at the [Divine Power Realm] or even the [True Form Realm]…

Thinking of this.

Looking at the fossilized remains in the surrounding area that could at least be pieced together into hundreds of corpses.

Ling Wuyuan had an even clearer understanding of the overall strength of this race.

He was very puzzled.

Which great god completely annihilated them back then…

However.

He understood that the unknown expert.

Was probably a human cultivator.

If not, today, this continent called [Golden Azure Continent] would not be dominated by humans.

Thinking back to what happened before.

The metal puppet completely ignored him.

Ling Wuyuan only felt that the doubts in his heart were becoming more and more numerous.

He was both puzzled about the identity and strength of that great god.

And puzzled about whether he had guessed something wrong before.

For example, those experts from various forces, perhaps they didn't die at all, or perhaps they weren't killed by the metal puppet.

Ultimately.

If that metal puppet was really a creation of these alien races, and had always been operating normally.

Then, it shouldn't have any reason not to attack him.

So, is there a possibility.

That long ago.

That metal puppet had already been controlled by the human cultivator who successfully fought his way through this place?

And its current duty is to guard this place.

If the intruder is human.

As long as everyone doesn't actively attack it.

Then it won't attack them?

Ling Wuyuan felt that the relevant truth might be like this.

But in that case.

What about those cultivators from various forces??

Why have they all disappeared??

Could it be that they have all successfully entered the deeper parts of the ruins??

For a moment.

Ling Wuyuan couldn't help but frown.

After examining the many fragments of remains in front of him again, he chose to collect these fragments of remains and various armor fragments, and then continued to search this ancient ruin.

Soon.

He had another harvest.

That was a large number of corpses.

Different from the fossilized remains last time.

This time, they were all extremely fresh corpses.

They were the fresh corpses of human cultivators…

Judging from the surrounding situation.

Although they resisted before they died.

The outcome, obviously, was not very optimistic.
