Episode 15 – Heavy Treasure Chapter 38 – Young Beasts

Although they were surprised, Jarod and Garland were also deterred by the strength of Linley, Delia, and their party, and behaved in an extremely friendly manner.

“Hey, Garland, you two should have been in the Amethyst Mountain Range for a long time, right?”

Bebe inquired with a smile, and the two of them, Garland and Jarod, looked at each other, their eyes showing helplessness.

That Garland sighed and said, “Yes, we’ve been here for a long, long time, at the very least over a hundred million years.”

“Over a hundred million years?”

Linley’s few people were shocked.

One hundred million!

It was easy to say, but it was a very exaggerated number. Linley had only lived for over a hundred years until now, and was still a long way from one hundred million.

That Jarod also said bitterly, ”Back then, Garland and I, we also encountered a situation like a fog tide, and then we entered the Amethyst Mountain Range without being able to help it, and during that day, the Amethyst Monster Beasts were also very excited, and killed a lot of people, but the two of us managed to survive. Back then, I was an intermediate god, and Garland was still a lower god …… So many years have passed, and both Garland and I have reached the upper god realm, because the time is too long, and the two of us are too lazy to calculate it. But it should have exceeded 100 million years long ago.”

Linley’s heart was shocked.

The time it took to grow from a lower god to an upper god would definitely take an extremely long time for an average person.

“Don’t you guys ever want to go out?”

Linley looked at them and solemnly said, “Could it be that this Amethyst Mountain Range is really like the legends say, that once you’ve come in, you can’t go out again?”

When he had first heard others say this at the edge of the Sea of Mist. Linley had only been skeptical.

In Linley’s opinion, those who collected amethysts hadn’t even entered the interior of the Amethyst Mountain Range, so how could they possibly know the situation of those who had entered the Amethyst Mountain Range. Even now that he had entered the Amethyst Mountain Range, Linley still had a slight illusion.

Thinking that he still had a chance to leave.

“Right. What comes in, can’t go out.”

Jarod was certain.

“Really can’t get out?”

Linley was stunned.

Was he going to be stuck here forever?

Delia, who was beside him, glanced at Linley, knowing that Linley had always wanted to return to the Phantom Blue Mansion to meet the Baruch family forefathers. Delia immediately asked, “Jarod, how can you be so sure, this Amethyst Mountain Range is so big, there must be a lot of people, right, so not a single person has left?”

That brown-haired woman, Garland, also comforted, “I know that you guys are not willing to do this, however. This is the truth.”

“First of all, this Amethyst Mountain Range has a huge gravitational pull.”

Garland said, “An average Upper Deity simply can’t resist this gravitational force.”

Delia, Linley, and the others nodded slightly.

Delia was an upper level god, but she couldn’t resist this gravitational force, and although Linley’s body was strong, he couldn’t do anything to resist the gravitational force towards the outside as Garland continued, “The Amethyst Mountain Range has existed for so long, and amongst those who fell in in the first place. Many of those who fell into the mountain range in the first place have reached extremely high realms, and their strength is estimated to be comparable to that of a five-star demon, a six-star demon, or even higher. There was once a powerful upper god who was actually able to fly against this gravitational force towards the outside.”

Linley frowned.

“He was able to defy this gravitational force, but when he flew to the area filled with the sound of strange winds, he was affected and his mind was dizzy. Although he was also able to stay awake, he held on in midair for entire decades without finding a way out!”

Garland said.

Bebe was surprised, “Decades? In that place that makes people’s brains spin?”

“Yes, but that area is weird, not a simple maze. Even the soul is affected. It’s impossible to fly out at all.”

Garland shook his head.

Linley couldn’t help but feel a tightness in his heart.

Even that strong person who could resist the gravitational ground couldn’t get out, what could he do?

Then Jarod said suspiciously, “Later on, it was also strange that that strong person gave up and returned to the Amethyst Mountain Range, and then shortly afterward, he disappeared for no reason at all.”

“Disappeared for no reason?”

Linley’s four were greatly alarmed.

Garland also nodded and said, “Yes, he wasn’t the only one, later on, any strong person whose strength had reached an extremely high level would suddenly disappear, and it’s not known if they died or escaped. Or otherwise what happened.”

Garland and Jarod were clearly confused as well.

Linley’s brows furrowed, the kind of powerhouse who had reached six or possibly even seven stars, who presumed to go out on their own but failed, simply couldn’t have gone out on their own.

“Whether it’s dying, or going out. Or being controlled. It should all be some sort of force of some sort behind the manipulation.”

Linley said in his heart.

Linley looked around this Amethyst Mountain Range.

Linley always felt that this Amethyst Mountain Range itself was peculiar, and that soul essence was the most important for one’s soul. However, the Amethyst Mountain Range was rich in amethysts, it was simply unbelievable.

Secondly, the white mist that covered it all year round, the eerie sound of the wind, the amazing gravitational force ……

Also, the caverns that swallowed and sucked and erupted at times!

All of this made Linley feel scornful. Suddenly pointing to the distant trap pit, he said, “See that constantly erupting amethyst, what’s going on with that cave in the trap pit, erupting for a while, stopping for a while, swallowing and sucking for a while. In the end what’s going on?”

“You guys can’t go to that place.”

Garland even said, “That is called the Amethyst Demon Cave by us, throughout the Amethyst Mountain Range, there are 108 Amethyst Demon Caves in total.”

“108?”

Bebe stared, “This strange place, there are even that many?”

Garland even said, “Yes, this Amethyst Magic Cave is the source that erupts out of the Amethyst, normally, they also erupt, it’s just that the number is very sparse then, it won’t be as exaggerated as today. Also, when that magic cave stops erupting, you guys mustn’t be greedy and go to the trap to grab the amethyst crystals.”

“Got it.”

Bebe grunted, “I saw with my own eyes that those four people were directly swallowed and sucked into the cave. Pity that Jenkin ……”

There was also a hint of sadness in Bebe’s eyes.

“Someone was swallowed and sucked in?”

Next to him, Jarod let out a shocked gasp. Immediately, he said, “Those who were swallowed into the ground must have just come here and don’t know anything about this. This Amethyst Magic Cave is divided into three stages of eruption, stopping and swallowing, in which the eruption time is the longest. Stopping time is the shortest, swallowing time is general. The stopping time is not only short, but the stopping time varies each time, so it’s impossible to find a pattern, and no one knows the danger and dares to jump in.”

Linley’s four people all nodded slightly.

They had also seen this scene, the eruption time was indeed the longest, and the pause was only a few seconds.

“To take the amethyst, it’s actually not that difficult. Take advantage of the short pause. Use an elemental doppelganger or an elemental great hand to directly grab a handful.”

Garland smiled faintly.

Linley suddenly realized upon hearing this.

Right, like casting the element of earth and forming a long hand to grab a handful. Even if it was suddenly swallowed and sucked in, it wouldn’t be much of a loss.

“Jenkin and the others really!”

Linley sighed in his heart, “But they also didn’t even know about this Amethyst Demon Cave at the time, and saw it stop. Just rejoiced greatly and went to collect the amethyst crystals.”

“Haha …… what’s the point of actually collecting amethyst crystals?”

That Jarod snorted and shook his head, “Getting more amethyst is a waste in the Amethyst Mountain Range, we can’t even get out of it …… amethysts can’t be exchanged for inkstones or zamstones either.”

Linley and the four of them were stunned.

“Right, if we can’t get out, what’s the point of having more amethyst in this Amethyst Mountain Range?”

Olivia shook her head as well.

Strong people such as Linley and Olivia, who were unwilling to be ordinary and loved challenges, having them stay in one place forever and not be able to get out was nothing short of torture.

“Hoo hoo faintly, a mountain wind blew by.

Linley and the four of them, as well as Jarod and Garland. Together, they stopped at the halfway point of a mountain peak.

No one knew where there were amethyst magical beasts, so they might as well stop where they were.

Just as Linley and the others were chatting with each other about this Amethyst Mountain Range, suddenly—“Roar ……

“Ah!”

“Kill!” ……

A large number of beast roars and killing sounds rang out, constantly echoing amongst the mountains and forests. Just hearing the roars, Linley and the six of them changed their faces.

“There are a lot of amethyst monsters!”

Linley looked towards the source of the sound, and just by hearing the sound alone, Linley was certain that the number of Amethyst Monstrous Beasts was extremely high.

“At the very least, there are dozens of Amethyst Monstrous Beasts.”

That Jarod said evenly, “Let’s get out of here.”

Linley instantly judged the direction, “Let’s head this way.”

Everyone didn’t want to meet up with those amethyst monsters either, and immediately followed Linley as they ran off together at breakneck speeds. If two or three Amethyst Monsters came, Linley and the few of them could still barely resist them when they joined forces.

But if dozens of them came ……

By then, the others would definitely be finished, and it would be Linley and Bebe who would be in danger with the many Amethyst Monsters surrounding them.

“Hurry up.”

Linley urged at the same time. A roar of fury came vaguely from the white mist in the rear.

“You’re still slow.”

Bebe directly pulled Olivia by one hand. Olivia also used her strength to follow.

“They’re still really fast!”

Jarod and Garland were astonished, Linley and the few of them were not weaker than them, the upper gods, in terms of speed. In particular, Linley and Bebe, with their strong bursts of speed, seemed to even have the advantage.

Running all the way, after a long time, the sound of roars from behind could not be heard.

“Whew, finally safe.”

With a flip of his hand, Bebe put his straw hat back on his head and leaned against the boulder on the ground next to him, “Hey, let’s rest here, those amethyst monsters aren’t going in the same direction as us and won’t be able to catch up.”

Linley and Delia also went to sit down on the side, the two of them leaning together. Olivia stood casually to the side.

Smiles also appeared on the faces of Jarod and Garland, and Garland laughed, “Don’t be anxious, everyone, the fog tide is only for one day, and it’s just for today that all these amethyst monsters will go berserk and all run out. After today, the amethyst monsters will all go back. We will then be able to live a peaceful life for hundreds of millions of years.”

“If it’s like this every day, this life is too painful.”

Bebe muttered.

“Bebe, you’re afraid too.”

Linley teased and laughed.

“This kind of undead monster, anyone who sees it has a headache.”

Bebe said helplessly. Just as the crowd was casually chatting- “Hehe, look everyone, what’s going on there?”

Bebe pointed to the distance.

Linley and the others also looked towards the distance, only to see that the endless white fog in the distance had unexpectedly surged in one direction at great speed. As the white fog disappeared, Linley’s and their visual range naturally increased. In just a blink of an eye, several miles of white fog had disappeared.

Linley, Bei Bei, and the other six people were all dumbstruck.

Standing halfway up the mountainside, the six people could clearly see that about three or four miles away in the distance, they were densely packed. Countless amethyst monsters filled the field of vision, at least can see the ground there are more than a thousand amethyst monsters, the rest are in the distant white fog.

“This, this ……”

Linley and the others were stunned.

Two amethyst monster beasts were so so dealt with, these thousands of amethyst monster beasts?

“Someone! Ah, I didn’t realize they were surrounded.”

Jarod, Garland’s face changed, and Linley and the others took a closer look, and sure enough —- within the encirclement of those amethyst monster beasts, there were hundreds of people right there.

And amongst that group of amethyst monsters. There was one of the largest in size, an amethyst beast that was seven meters tall and more than twenty meters in length. What was most attractive was not this most massive Amethyst Monster Beast, but an Amethyst Juvenile Beast standing on the head of this Amethyst Monster Beast.

This amethyst young beast was only one meter in length. Compared to the Amethyst Monster Beast, it was nothing but a small dot.

The God Devouring Mouse grew slightly larger when it fought. It was also about the same as this amethyst young beast. Logically, this kind of young beast should be recuperating within its nest.

However, upon seeing this amethyst young beast, Linley and the others felt shuddering.

Because at the moment, this amethyst beast was opening its mouth, countless white mists all surged towards the mouth of this amethyst beast, and in a moment, there were no more clouds in the vicinity of a ten-mile radius. The strange thing is …… that the white fog in other areas is not surging over.

That amethyst young beast proudly stroked a little belly, then crisp voice resounded through heaven and earth: “Haha, human beings, the surrounding white fog are controlled by me. It’s impossible for you all to escape even if you want to enter the white fog. One by one, prepare to be food.”

It was crisp like a child’s voice, but it was spoken smoothly.

Linley and the others were startled.

This was because the amethyst monsters they had encountered all stuttered and had obviously lower intelligence. But this purple young beast was not.

“Haha, little ones, kill for me!”

The amethyst young beast shouted in triumph.

At once, countless amethyst beasts hissed and simultaneously surrounded towards those hundreds of people, who were all frantically executing their own stunts, and Linley could tell at a glance that each and every one of those hundreds of people was a master of the art, with those Law Arcane Attacks. Even Linley felt his heart startled.

For a time, the heavens and earth were roaring, roaring, and fighting!

“Monster, die.”

Among them was a silver-colored, short-haired strong man holding a long spear, his entire person adamantly transforming into white light, as dazzling as the sun, a white light slicing through the long sky. It directly stabbed towards that cute purple cub.

The purple beast grinned evilly. Casually waved his hand, a purple light shot out and rushed into the silver-colored short-haired man. That silver-colored short-haired strong man instantly fell from mid-air and died tragically on the spot!

“Woo, looking for death?”

The purple cub said with great disinterest.

Linley and the others were stunned.

“It’s a soul attack!”

Bebe was shocked, “And it also contains a strange arcana.”

“A purple monster that also knows law attacks?”

Linley’s face changed drastically.

This purple young beast was by no means an ordinary existence. It was completely different from ordinary purple monstrous beasts.

“Those humans, they’re all Upper Gods, and like us, they’ve been here for a long time.”

Garland was shocked, “The one who was just killed by that little monster was a very powerful Upper Level God, but he was killed by a single move, that little monster’s strength ……”

Garland was also jaw-dropped.

What kind of strength was this?

The strength of a Shura?

“Let’s hurry.”

Linley even said.

“Too perverted, let’s go.”

Bebe also responded.

Immediately, Linley and the few of them turned around and left.

On the distant battlefield, the little purple cub that stood atop the purple beast’s head waved his hand, a purple light shooting out to directly kill another formidable Upper Deity, and then he steeply turned his head in the direction of where Linley was, skimming his lips and saying, “Oh? I’m going to wait for a while to clean you guys up, but I didn’t expect you to look at me for a while and then get scared and leave.”

Immediately afterward, the little purple beast shouted loudly in triumph, “Little earthlings, give me chase!”

The clear and crisp voice resounded through the sky.

Immediately, countless purple monsters all immediately hissed in response, and countless purple monsters ran after them at breakneck speeds in accordance with the direction guided by the purple little cub’s small claws. And on the ground, there was only a field of corpses left, those hundreds of Upper Gods had all died!
