Chapter 488: The Fearsome Crumbling Continent

“Little Na, don’t get so worked up and stop running around like a headless chicken!

“I’m still suffering from debilitating after-effects, can we rest and recover first?”

An Lin was not very happy about being dragged around by a large hand that materialized from vital energy.

“Don’t worry, their auras aren’t that powerful. In fact, they’re only heaven rank at most!” Tina’s eyes lit up as if she had discovered something extremely interesting.

An Lin rolled his eyes. “Stop it with the heaven rank. Don’t bring your hierarchy over here.”

He narrowed his eyes as he tried to get a closer look at the figures in the distance. However, it was too far away, and he could only barely make out that the figures seemed to be humanoid?

“Ah! So many Giant Godfiends!” Tina cried in surprise.

An Lin could also see them clearly now, and he discovered that they were a group of humans with thick black fur all over their bodies. Correct! They were humans, not apes.

All the humans turned around. They were clearly taken aback by the sight of An Lin, and they charged toward An Lin and Tina with their mouths wide open to reveal their sharp fangs!

There were about a hundred of these creatures, and their auras were all around seventh or eighth-stage Dao Body.

“Can I kill them?” Tina asked.

An Lin shook his head. “Leave them be. They don’t pose any threat to us. Anyway, we should conserve our energy, so let’s keep going.”

He only used the Origin Energy of the Netherworld for a short time, so the effective duration of the after-effects should be quite short too.

Tina continued to move into the mountain ranges in search of a place to rest.

However, they discovered that their environment had become more and more dangerous as they progressed onward.

All types of poisonous gases were being released from the ground below, which was teeming with poisonous creatures such as huge spiders, scorpions, and black pythons.

All of them had one shared characteristic—black fur that ran along their entire bodie[a]s. Their black fur seemed to be sucking away the light of the sun, making the ground below appear like a mass of moving, inky black tar.

All these creatures were extremely dangerous, and they would often spit poison up at An Lin and Tina.

Tina had expended a lot of energy after crossing through the glacial lands, and she was getting a little irritated by the fact that she had to constantly be on her guard to fend off the creatures around them.

Flaming vultures, crimson blood-sucking vampires, demonic falcons… All manners of terrifying creatures swooped in on Tina.

“Waah… why are all the creatures in this world so terrifying? Why are they all so big, so strong, so disgusting, and so unfriendly…” Tina grumbled as she looked down at the sinister creatures and the barren, poisonous world below her with an expression of indignation and vexation on her face.

“Are the images on that rectangular item fake? Where is the beautiful scenery? Where are the cute little animals?” She turned to An Lin with a resentful expression that looked as if she had been scammed.

An Lin explained with an exasperated sigh, “All the images on my phone are images of the Tai Chu Continent, not this crumbling continent. To be honest, I have no clue what this continent is like either.”

Tina pouted and harrumphed lightly as she surveyed the world around her. Even though it was a hideous world, there were still things that attracted her attention.

“Wow! What a huge mountain!” Tina gasped as she switched directions to fly toward a yellow mountain.

An Lin looked at the mountain to find that it was only around a thousand feet tall. Its steepness was perhaps slightly worthy of note, but it really couldn’t be referred to as tall.

Sigh, ignorant people are always quick to exclaim in surprise at everything they see.

Tina flew toward the mountain with An Lin in tow. Since there were no poisonous gases emanating from the mountain, nor any disgusting creatures crawling on its sides, she planned to make this their temporary resting place.

Right at this moment, a pair of red eyes suddenly appeared on the top half of the mountain, immediately following which the mountain rumbled and split open to reveal a cavernous mouth on its side that threatened to swallow Tina and An Lin!

“Ah!” Tina screeched as she ran away with An Lin in tow!

The massive mountain was able to extend its neck. Like a massive python, it shot forth toward them.

From Tina’s perspective, it looked like a mountainous mouth that was trying to bite her.

She had never encountered a situation like this, and her face paled in fear.

“Don’t panic! It’s large in mass, but it’s no match for you!” An Lin yelled.

Tina instinctively unleashed a fairy light cannon.

The white beam of light exploded within the mountain’s cavernous mouth with a resounding boom, lighting up the dark interior within.

The massive mountain trembled and quaked before retreating.

An Lin heaved a sigh of relief. The mountain was roughly around Soul Formation Initial Stage, while Tina was at the Soul Formation Pinnacle Stage. An Lin was embarrassed for her lack of composure against a much weaker opponent.

Tina stared at the retreating mountain in bewilderment as she murmured to herself. “It’s so big, but how is it so weak…”

“Who gave you the idea that there was a direct correlation between size and strength?” An Lin snapped.

“You,” Tina replied.

An Lin: “…”

Just when the two of them were about to leave, the sky above them suddenly trembled.

Immediately afterward, countless inky black rifts split open in the air with no end in sight.

From An Lin’s perspective, the black rifts had a radius of close to ten kilometers.

The rifts enshrouded the entire sky like a gigantic black net.

An extremely inky black liquid then began to ooze out from the rifts. The liquid was extremely thick and dark, and they descended toward the ground like inky black saber shards.

“Huh, what’s this?” Tina extended a hand toward the inky black liquid to see what it was.

An Lin was given a fright at the sight of her action. “That’s dangerous! Don’t touch the liquid!”

An Lin had been cemented in Tina’s heart as an extremely knowledgeable and experienced senior, so she immediately withdrew her hand from the black liquid at An Lin’s behest.

The huge mountain below seemed to be cowering in fear. It shrunk itself to be as small as possible while a golden film of light appeared over the mountain like a giant umbrella.

The black liquid descended to the ground and cut through the ground with zero resistance, creating a series of terrifying fissures in the ground like a hot knife through butter. Some of the creatures on the ground didn’t have enough time to evade the black liquid; their bodies were sliced open as they wailed in anguish.

“What… what is that liquid…” Tina’s face was pale from fear.

She couldn’t sense any energy fluctuations from the black liquid, yet it contained extremely devastating destructive power. If it wasn’t for An Lin’s timely word of caution, her hand would’ve most likely been chopped off.

“This is the power of chaos spilling into the world. This crumbling world can no longer maintain its stability.” An Lin sighed.

From the information he was given, he knew that the land mass of this continent was less than one percent of the Tai Chu Continent. Most of its land mass had been reduced to nothingness, and it looked like this place was in the process of being reduced to nothingness as well.

Tina unleashed her movement techniques to evade the black liquid raining down from above.

Even though the mountain below them was simply too massive to remain completely unscathed, its umbrella of golden light shielded it from some of the black liquid.

Right at this moment, an extremely massive rift suddenly appeared in the sky. The massive rift was dumping a huge amount of black liquid that flowed like a small waterfall over the mountain, which immediately sliced through the golden umbrella of light.

The black liquid sliced through the mountain like a knife through tofu, cutting it cleanly in half…

The mountain didn’t even have the chance to make a sound before its body was sliced in half. White liquid gushed out like a flood in a huge quantity. That was probably its blood…

The remnants of the huge mountain were then dismembered by the rest of the black liquid falling from the sky, and it was soon reduced to countless pieces.

Tina’s body trembled slightly. In her eyes, the black liquid exuded an extremely terrifying deadly aura, which enveloped her entire body.

Fortunately, this calamity did not last for a long time.

The restorative power of heaven and earth suddenly swept through the air and sealed all the black rifts in the sky.

Peace and serenity resumed.

Everything below them had been exterminated. It was as if the black liquid were a type of divine retribution that had cleansed the world below of all life-force.

However, the bottomless fissures on the ground suddenly began to seal over, like wounds that were slowly regenerating, before returning to its original state.

Vitality once again returned to the mass of dismembered creatures below as they began to squirm and crawl…

“So this is what it’s like when it rains in the outside world… so scary… so scary…” Tina muttered to herself repeatedly.

An Lin: “…”

How did she even make that connection? Did she even listen to his explanation?

“So scary… but… so exciting…” Tina’s trembling voice was suddenly tinged with a hint of excitement.

An Lin: “…”

Did she just awaken the adrenaline junkie within herself?

[a]black fur that cover their body? or running along the spine, like a stripe? or just the entire back of their body?
