Chapter 2918 The Danger Of The Sacred Spring
After a round of analysis, the leaders of the Xyperians surmised that there must be an even more powerful beast residing in Emberfall Rainforest, an entity much mightier than they could imagine.
After all, their research told them that beasts could absorb spiritual energy better than humans.
It would not be surprising if a beast stronger than the Deity-level beasts were to exist.
All of the Deities of Xyperia came to one conclusion—there was no upper limit to a being’s power after the spiritual energy recovery.
In other words, an entity that even a Deity could not define might exist.
That was why the Xyperians realized that there had to be an invincible being in the rainforest.
“Be careful, everyone. If you encounter it, retreat immediately. Call for help right away so that you can help each other to get out of the place.”
The Xyperians had formulated an escape plan to deal with such a situation.
In the meantime, many others had encountered the rampaging beasts, including Deity-level beasts.
Those beasts had gone into a frenzied, bloodthirsty state, and they began attacking the people with the most ferocious moves.
In a blink of an eye, many were killed or injured.
The fortunate ones would only encounter one to two Deity-level beasts, so they could still flee in time.
The unfortunate ones would encounter dozens of Deity-level beasts at once and were wiped out in no time.
Even though some did not bump into Deity-level beasts, the tens of thousands of beasts were more than enough to annihilate the major forces.
Despite having a guide, many of the teams of Xyperia still ended up encountering the beasts.
The whole place was a battlefield.
On the other hand, Levi and his company progressed smoothly.
The people he would have encountered were preoccupied with defending themselves against the beasts.
Moreover, the beasts dared not come close to Levi when they took a whiff of his aura.
Thus, there were no obstacles in Levi’s way.
Some of the beasts that could not stop in time and encountered Levi were so terrified that they would scurry away as swiftly as possible.
They looked a sorry sight.
Digital God cast a perplexed gaze at Levi. “Mr. Garrison, you can control these beasts?”
Dr. Erebus laughed. “No. They’re just afraid of Mr. Garrison.”
At that moment, Digital God realized something, and he turned to look at Levi in disbelief. “Could it be that the happenings in the rainforest are because…”
The astonishment he felt stopped him from finishing his sentence.
Finally, the three of them traversed the entire rainforest and arrived at the sacred spring.
Boom!
A powerful wave of aura assaulted them just as they reached, nearly causing them to topple over.
As it turned out, the sacred spring had seven powerful beasts around it.
More accurately, they were the overlords of the rainforest and had forcibly taken over the sacred spring to nourish their bodies.
One of them was a python which was almost on par with the snake Levi had encountered at the South Pole.
At the start, Levi wondered why the beasts remained unmoving.
Do they not sense my aura?
However, he soon realized it was because his aura was covered by something else.
The spiritual energy in the small-sized super-spiritual ley line was too concentrated that it blocked out Levi’s aura.
Otherwise, even if the seven beasts were the overlords of that place, they should have long gone mad after sensing his aura.
“This…”
It was the first time Dr. Erebus and Digital God had encountered that many beasts.
Instantly, fear caused their hair to stand on end, and their legs began to shake.
The beasts by the sacred spring were much more powerful than ordinary Deity-level beasts.
If they were not the strongest among the hundred-odd Deity-level beasts in the rainforest, they could not have managed to dominate the place.
What they had encountered was something they had never anticipated.
It seemed like others would not be able to obtain the sacred spring even if they managed to arrive there.
Dr. Erebus could foresee that even when forty to fifty Deities were sent out, they might still fail to win against the seven beasts, for they were the overlords among the Deity-level beasts.
Furthermore, they had been absorbing unimaginable amounts of spiritual energy from the sacred spring that made them stronger and stronger every second.
No one would be able to gain access to the spring.
They would all die there instead.
“What do we do now?”
