Chapter 490: Legacy Aura
Chapter 490: Legacy Aura
It was evident that the Celestial Feather Ancestor had sent a message to notify the Winged Clan to bring Wu You over.
For Li Qian to have discovered Wu You's evolution method in such a short time was astonishing, regardless of whether it would succeed or not.
It was enough to prove Li Qian's terrifying breeding talent, and encountering such a coincidence was rare. He naturally wanted to witness it for himself.
Thus, Li Qian and the Celestial Feather Ancestor boarded the feathered gondola and flew straight towards the ruins of Forgetful City.
The feathered gondola appeared light and flimsy, and even a slight gust of wind seemed to pose a risk of capsizing. In reality, the entire gondola was enveloped by a formation.
Not only was it sturdy and reliable, but it was also incredibly fast. In about a quarter of an hour, they arrived near the ruins of Forgetful City.
Standing atop the feathered gondola, Li Qian gazed down at the entire ruins of Forgetful City, his heart stirred with emotion.
The ruins of Forgetful City were quite extensive, at least comparable to a medium-sized city in the Dimensional Plane.
Additionally, Li Qian noticed that the outlying areas of Forgetful City also had numerous architectural remnants.
These remnants were piled up in clusters, like stars surrounding the moon, guarding the central Forgetful City.
Evidently, in the past, this area near Forgetful City was not just home to the Winged Clan living in the city.
As the feathered gondola drew closer, Li Qian could see the city's appearance more clearly.
Although the city had been abandoned and left to decay, the remaining ruins and vestiges still revealed its former prosperity.
The buildings stood shoulder to shoulder, their roofs distinctive with upturned eaves on both sides, resembling a divine bird spreading its wings, ready to take flight.
Li Qian looked at these structures, feeling a sense of familiarity. After a moment of recollection, he realized that many of the buildings resembled those in Feather Sky City.
To be precise, the architectural style of Feather Sky City was somewhat similar to this place.
Li Qian examined the remaining architectural remnants, houses, streets, palaces, temples, and manors, all in a state of ruin. This also indicated the chaos they had experienced during their initial evacuation.
"Be careful, we're about to land," the Celestial Feather Ancestor cautioned as the feathered gondola slowly descended.
Without pausing, he continued, "You must act quickly. This place is not safe."
Noticing Li Qian's confused gaze, he explained, "Theoretically, after the Winged Clan's great demise, we, as the Winged Clan integrated into the new human civilization, could return here after taking root in Feather Sky City and Forgetful Village. But we chose not to."
Li Qian nodded slightly, agreeing with this statement. Although this ruin was a bit far from the Dimensional Rift, for a clan, this distance was negligible.
There must have been a hidden reason why they chose not to return to Forgetful City.
The Celestial Feather Ancestor glanced at Li Qian and then scanned the surrounding environment before speaking solemnly, "The reason we chose to guard Forgetful Village instead of returning here is simple. We simply couldn't hold this place."
"We couldn't hold it?" Li Qian's expression showed a hint of bewilderment as he looked around.
The city's ruins, though in ruins and deserted, still retained numerous traces.
Upon closer inspection, these traces varied in depth, clearly left behind during different periods.
Some traces even indicated that they were left behind not long ago.
Given that this was the fourth layer of the Dimensional Plane, it was normal to encounter various dangers.
Li Qian guessed as much, and the Celestial Feather Ancestor's words confirmed his suspicions.
"Forgetful City is too close to the Thousand Peaks Mountain Range, which is filled with hidden dangers. The route we just flew over was tested countless times, making it relatively safer."
"Hiding in Forgetful Village, we can hold our ground with the advantage of formations. But if we come to Forgetful City, with its open spaces and lack of defensible positions, we couldn't possibly sustain ourselves."
Li Qian nodded slightly, agreeing with the Celestial Feather Ancestor's words.
Suffering through dangers, the Winged Clan must have gained numerous benefits, such as various extraordinary resources, companion beast offspring, and more...
This natural training ground was invaluable to the Winged Clan, and Li Qian guessed that their ability to establish an independent city was closely related to this Dimensional Rift.
"Hmm," Li Qian responded, understanding what needed to be done. With a plan in mind, he no longer hesitated and began exploring the ruins.
He searched carefully, and after about five minutes, he finally found an open area.
This was the most suitable place for evolution, and Li Qian couldn't help but nod in agreement.
The Celestial Feather Ancestor gazed at the open area, his eyes filled with memories. "This is the altar ground of Forgetful City," he said with a hint of nostalgia.
"In the past, whenever Forgetful City held grand festivals or rituals, they were conducted here. It was bustling with activity."
Upon hearing this, Li Qian nodded slightly. According to the information he received after submitting the quest, this was the most suitable place for evolution.
The reason it was called "suitable" was not just a feeling; it was based on the knowledge he had acquired. Li Qian could clearly sense that the Legacy Aura was the richest here.
Strangely, the hazy, faint light points, which should be the "Legacy Aura" of evolution, could be perceived by his "True Sight Eye" talent.
Li Qian wondered if all Beastmasters' "True Sight Eye" talent could "see" this, or if his "True Sight Eye" talent had undergone an unknown "mutation."
Due to the presence of the plot armor, Li Qian wasn't sure if such a thing would happen.
Unfortunately, this couldn't be confirmed for now, so he could only keep his doubts to himself.
