Chapter 292: Forbidden Deity Legend
Chapter 292: Forbidden Deity Legend
The situation was critical, and Instructor Zhou judged that there was likely a serious problem deep within the Moonshadow Twilight Forest.
To avoid unnecessary casualties, he immediately shouted out loud, ordering a retreat.
As a veteran who had long been involved in dimensional planes, he knew exactly what to do at this moment.
One couldn't rely on powerful figures to come to their rescue; they might intervene, but only if the emergency was contained.
If the situation became uncontrollable, they would never risk the safety of many for the sake of a few.
Upon receiving the order, Li Qian didn't think twice. He waved his hand and said solemnly, "Come."
Almost as soon as he waved, Seven Sons had arrived before him with lightning speed.
Li Qian took the lead, leaping onto Seven Sons' back, followed closely by Amy Liya, Hu Wenjing, Wu Mingming, and Ding Ganmao.
"Seven Sons, let's go! Get us out of here as fast as you can!" Seeing that Wang Zonghan didn't show any signs of joining them, Li Qian didn't hesitate and immediately gave the command to Seven Sons.
Now was not the time for hesitation; with the safety of so many students at stake, Li Qian couldn't afford to accommodate Wang Zonghan's pride or any hidden reasons.
To do so would be irresponsible to himself and the other students who trusted him.
"Roar!" Seven Sons responded with a dragon's roar and immediately took action, displaying the 'Dragon Ascend' skill. In the blink of an eye, it soared into the air, reaching a height of over a hundred meters.
At the same time, Li Qian saw Instructor Zhou and the other three senior students summoning their flying companion beasts.
Those without flying companion beasts directly summoned other types of beasts with speed advantages.
With the assistance of these beasts, Li Qian and his team's escape speed increased significantly.
The group of twelve students, along with the four senior instructors, prepared to flee the scene as quickly as possible. Even Wang Zonghan was taken by Instructor Zhou onto his flying companion beast.
Their decision proved to be incredibly correct, for as they retreated, their temporary communication watches simultaneously issued a retreat warning.
The fact that so many of them received the warning at once left no doubt that it was not the action of an individual but an official emergency notice.
After ascending into the sky, Li Qian commanded Seven Sons to fly towards Cloudsky City at high speed. However, a casual glance back left him shocked.
He witnessed the Peacock King launching a sudden attack, ordering the Star Sky Falcon to release a massive gray vortex-like energy ball.
The gray vortex energy ball shot into the depths of the Moonshadow Twilight Forest, causing an extremely violent explosion.
In an instant, the area was filled with flying rocks and soil, trees were pulverized, and amidst the dust, Li Qian could vaguely see a hazy light circle.
Within that light circle, something seemed to be struggling to break free, but it was ultimately forced back by the Peacock King's relentless attack.
"Senior Al Du, what was that?" The Moonshadow Twilight Forest was not far from Cloudsky City. After returning to the city and while the others were taken to the hospital for treatment, Li Qian described what he had seen and heard to Senior Al Du, expressing his confusion.
Senior Al Du waved his hand and then headed straight for a bar. Li Qian wasn't surprised to see a bar in Cloudsky City; he had noticed it while exploring before.
Upon entering the bar, Senior Al Du chose a table near the window, ordered a cocktail for himself, and asked Li Qian, "What would you like to drink?"
"Don't be shy; this round's on me."
"Li Qian listened intently, and without hesitation, he ordered a glass of juice. Al Du, the senior, smiled and didn't say much.
After a few minutes of small talk, once the juice and cocktails arrived, Al Du finally spoke up, cutting straight to the point, "Do you know about the Unstable Rift?"
Li Qian nodded.
The impression of the Unstable Rift was indeed quite profound.
"Actually, just now, the light circle you saw can be understood as an Unstable Rift!" Al Du explained, taking a sip of his cocktail.
His words, however, caused Li Qian to furrow his brows in confusion.
Without hesitation, he directly asked the question that had been on his mind, "This is a dimensional plane, how can an Unstable Rift appear here?"
"Do you know about the Forbidden Deity Legend?" Without directly answering Li Qian's question, Al Du asked another question.
Li Qian shook his head.
This "Forbidden Deity Legend" was the first time he had heard of it.
"The essence of the dimensional plane..."
Al Du took a sip of his cocktail and began to explain, "According to some Beastmaster Civilization scholars, they believe that the dimensional plane is actually a layered onion world."
"The deeper you go, the more abundant the extraordinary energy becomes, and likewise, the more powerful the extraordinary beings within."
"According to rumors, the deepest part of the dimensional plane, which is also the core area of the onion world, is a realm that even mythical beings cannot enter. Thus, it is referred to as the 'Forbidden Divine Land', and the 'Forbidden Deity Legend' originates from this."
Al Du sighed and continued, "After the semester starts, you'll learn about it in the 'History of Companion Beast Civilization' course. So, telling you now won't make a difference."
"Currently, our human team's exploration of the dimensional plane has only reached the first few layers. As for which specific layer, with my abilities, I'm not sure. What I can tell you is that with my capabilities, I've only been to the second-layer dimensional plane."
"Even in the second-layer dimensional plane, I must be cautious and act with the protection of the strong."
After a brief introduction, Al Du suddenly spoke in a peculiar tone, "This world has a problem..."
"Huh?" Li Qian was left perplexed by Al Du's sudden shift in conversation.
Should it be so jumpy, so abrupt, under the gaze of Li Qian's confused and questioning eyes, he continued to watch Al Du.
Al Du didn't disappoint, directly revealing the information he had, "According to the Beastmaster Civilization scholars, the dimensional plane is like an onion, a complete onion. For some unknown reason, this onion has a problem, and its scent is leaking out."
"The Beastmaster Civilization era of our ancestral star began with this. According to the scholars, this is merely the beginning."
"Eventually, the entire onion world, or the dimensional plane, will completely collapse and merge with the present world."
"And the appearance of the Unstable Rift is a sign, in simple terms, the so-called Unstable Rift is actually a temporary passage that appears when the world barrier between the dimensional plane and the dimensional plane briefly collapses."
"This Unstable Rift has been appearing with increasing frequency in recent years. And the blurry voice you heard is likely from an extraordinary being from the deeper dimensional plane, trying to cross over."
"The reason Peacock King rushed over so urgently was probably to deal with this matter. If these extraordinary beings from the deeper dimensional plane were to step into our world, it might cause a catastrophe. Such incidents have occurred before..."
