The strange creature clinging to the door panel, its full form revealed as the corpse of the Crimson Flame Qilin vanished, was demonic in appearance.
The moment Chi Xue spat out a mouthful of vital essence, Chu Tian felt the peculiar fluctuation within its body suddenly halt.
Immediately after, the fluctuation intensified dramatically, as if its heart had revived, emitting the sound of…
Thump-thump… thump-thump…
The next moment, the desiccated corpse violently shuddered.
Witnessing this, Chu Tian acted without hesitation.
He activated Leopard Transformation, compressed three Shredding skills into the Wrath of the Moon God, and unleashed a single strike.
A bloody gash, tearing through the void, carrying a sharp aura, shot directly towards the bizarre creature that had just sat up.
The creature, having just regained consciousness, was clearly disoriented.
However, its combat instincts remained. Its wings instantly unfurled, shrouding its not-very-large body.
Hiss, hiss, hiss…
The bloody gash Chu Tian had unleashed, capable of tearing space, struck its wings directly.
“Damn, it’s too strong, it didn’t even scratch its fur!”
Chu Tian’s eyes narrowed. This fellow possessed no aura of cultivation.
Yet, it had blocked his intended fatal blow solely with its physical body.
“Can you still fly?” Chu Tian asked Chi Xue, his voice low and wary.
“I still can!” Chi Xue replied, fear evident on her face.
“You leave quickly, I’ll hold it off!”
As soon as Chu Tian finished speaking, he tossed her upwards without giving Chi Xue any chance to reply.
Simultaneously, the bizarre creature spread its wings, revealing its terrifying head.
The massive head was devoid of any hair. In some places, exposed bone could be seen due to the decay of its scalp.
Within its eyes, a pair of green ghostly flames drifted up and down.
Just as Chu Tian prepared to endure its furious attack,
The creature flipped over and sat up cross-legged.
“Human?”
The creature did not attack Chu Tian. Without opening its mouth, it spoke human language!
Chu Tian was taken aback. At this moment, he felt no hostility from the creature.
Though its aura was peculiar, as if it shouldn't exist in this world.
“Senior, are you…?”
Chu Tian, holding the Wrath of the Moon God, stood upright and politely inquired.
Since the other party harbored no ill will, it was best not to provoke it.
He had no idea what this creature’s true strength was.
The Crimson Flame Qilin, wielding its clan’s ultimate treasure, had only managed to achieve a mutual destruction with it.
Or rather, the creature was only half-dead…
Chu Tian didn’t know the Crimson Flame Qilin’s strength, but he estimated it to be… at least at the God of War realm.
“I… am not from your world!” the strange creature explained.
Chu Tian was startled and casually replied, “Neither am I!”
“Haha, I don’t mean this small space, nor your great world universe!”
As the creature spoke, its chest began to rotate with a clicking sound.
To Chu Tian’s shocked gaze, the bizarre creature revealed something that made his brain short-circuit.
With a series of clicks, a crack appeared on its chest.
Following that… hiss, hiss…
Wisps of white smoke emerged from the crack.
Slowly, the crack widened, gradually splitting open to the sides.
“Holy… crap…” Chu Tian rubbed his eyes.
“Mecha…”
Chu Tian unconsciously uttered these two words.
As the crack fully opened, Chu Tian saw the situation within.
A human, around his age, sat weakly inside.
“Mecha? You know about mecha… You… are you from Blue Star?” The weak human suddenly sat up straighter at this.
Boom…
Chu Tian’s mind reeled.
“How do you know about Blue Star?”
At this moment, Chu Tian became wary.
This fellow knew of Blue Star’s existence, and Chu Tian was well aware of the level of martial artists on Blue Star.
He feared that if this creature went to Blue Star, it could wipe out the entire planet by itself.
“Don’t worry, though my destination is Blue Star, I have no ill intentions. That place… is also my ancestral home! Besides… I can’t go there anymore now!”
The person, sensing Chu Tian’s thoughts, spoke.
At the same time, he slowly stood up, staggered a few steps, and walked down the stairs that extended from the creature’s mecha chest.
“What are you going to Blue Star for?”
Despite the creature’s words, Chu Tian didn’t entirely believe it.
This fellow possessed a mecha that he had only seen in science fiction movies.
This meant he must be from a planet with a highly advanced civilization.
Perhaps their technological level had already reached an unimaginable state.
And… a million years ago.
Chi Xue had mentioned that the Crimson Flame Qilin was a genius from their clan who had disappeared a million years ago.
It had fallen into the volcano simultaneously with this advanced civilization’s mecha after a great battle.
This allowed Chu Tian to deduce its age!
He just didn’t know how this fellow had managed to live for so long.
It was likely due to some dormant or hibernation function within the mecha that allowed him to awaken after a million years.
“If I say… I’m going to seek help, would you believe me?” The human squatted down and patted the door panel beneath his feet.
Chu Tian knew that what he was stepping on was not merely a door panel.
But rather a box, the entire box cast from the material visible on its surface.
He just didn’t know what it contained.
His divine sense couldn’t penetrate it at all.
“Are you kidding me? Your technology has developed to the point of having such mechas, and you still need to seek help from us?”
Chu Tian didn’t believe the other party’s claim at all.
“Mecha? Heh heh… We once believed we could conquer the universe, invincible!
Unfortunately… it was too late when we realized these piles of scrap metal were just junk.
My time is running out… Listen closely, I’ll tell you…” The person glanced at the high-tech watch on his arm.
He began to narrate his story…
From his words, Chu Tian learned that the creature claimed its ancestors were originally born on Blue Star.
But after they had developed to a certain extent, Blue Star's energy became depleted, and various resources grew scarce.
The population dwindled to less than a million.
They were forced to initiate a migration. On the eve of their migration,
They surprisingly received an unknown signal source.
The sender identified themselves as being from a universe designated ΩA001.
They claimed to have originated from Blue Star, sharing the same plight, and were eventually forced to migrate.
At this moment, they had calculated the time, knowing that after hundreds of millions of years of recuperation, Blue Star had given birth to their current generation of humans.
So much time had passed, they surmised that Blue Star had once again been severely damaged.
It was on the verge of migration, so they intended to guide them away.
Chu Tian listened with a pounding heart. The current state of Blue Star seemed to be following their old path.
Would this generation of humans also have to leave Blue Star for development?
It felt as though Blue Star was like a hatchery, one wave leaves, it rests for hundreds of millions of years, then births another wave…
