Chapter 824
These moving mountains were all tall creatures. Previously, there was only one, but the two had fought for a long time and consumed a lot of energy. Now, there was a group of them.
"Go, let's go quickly."
Zi Chen shouted and jumped up. At the same time, a loud dragon roar resounded as the torvosaurus soared into the sky.
Zi Chen jumped on the torvosaurus, and the torvosaurus carried him away. Zi Chen sat cross-legged on the back of the torvosaurus to recover his energy.
This was a tacit understanding formed between the two after many years. They would never waste any extra energy or time.
Behind them, there were constant vibrations as the tall creatures caught up. They were only a bit slower than the torvosaurus, and the distance between them did not increase.
Zi Chen held a few top grade spirit stones in his hand and used them to recover his energy. On the ancient road, he would save as much as he could, so there was no need to immediately swallow things to recover his energy.
There were more than a hundred tall creatures chasing after them, and the distance between them was getting closer and closer. This was not because the tall creatures were getting faster, but because the torvosaurus was slowing down.
The fierce battle had consumed a lot of energy, and now that it was running at full speed, the torvosaurus was gradually losing its energy.
"Let me do it."
The Spirit Stone in Zi Chen's hand shattered. Almost all of the Spirit Stones he had consumed earlier had been replenished. Just as he finished speaking, the torvosaurus' huge body instantly shrunk. It was like a green belt that wrapped around Zi Chen's waist.
Zi Chen's body flashed with a golden light as he replaced the torvosaurus and began to speed up. The torvosaurus only needed to wake up to recover its energy, so it did not need to swallow anything else. Therefore, before it woke up, Zi Chen would be the one running away.
Once this group of tall and big creatures launched an attack, a round of concentrated fire was enough to eliminate Zi Chen and the torvosaurus. Zi Chen, who had increased his speed, immediately displayed his extreme speed and instantly left the group of tall and big creatures far behind.
While running at full speed, Zi Chen finally had the time to observe this world. This was a relatively normal world with mountains and forests. The only regret was that there was no heaven and earth spirit qi here. However, there were birds and beasts, and they were not weak.
This world was very similar to the Barbarian World, but it didn't have the Barbarian's power inheritance. As a result, although the attacks of the tall creatures were powerful, they were all close-range attacks. As long as they kept a distance, they wouldn't be in much danger.
These tall creatures seemed to know no exhaustion. They had been chasing Zi Chen for several hours, and Zi Chen's energy consumption was gradually increasing.
"Forget it, let's find the exit first."
The lightning wings on Zi Chen's back flashed as he transformed into a bolt of silver lightning and began to search for an exit.
After flying for hundreds of thousands of miles, Zi Chen finally found the exit.
The exit was an enormous gate that occupied more than half of the sky. Not to mention a single person, even these creatures could leave through it.
There were tens of thousands of gigantic creatures around the door. Some of them were resting, while others were eating. What they were eating were gigantic beasts that were bitten to death, then torn apart, chewed, and swallowed.
Zi Chen's appearance immediately alarmed these creatures. They let out sharp whistling sounds and attacked Zi Chen.
As for the attacking objects, they were either gigantic rocks, skulls, or dried bones of beasts. These were originally very common objects, but when they were thrown with great force, they were like meteors that whizzed towards Zi Chen.
Tens of thousands of meteors fell with a whistling sound and instantly drowned Zi Chen. Under such great force, Zi Chen's protective light shield was immediately shattered. His Level Six body was instantly beaten black and blue, and some parts were even bleeding.
At the same time, under such great force, Zi Chen was like a giant bird that was attacked and was smashed down from the sky.
After Zi Chen landed on the ground, many creatures stomped towards Zi Chen. The sky suddenly darkened as giant feet covered the sky and stomped down with great force.
Zi Chen had no time to be shocked. He swallowed the fresh blood that he was about to spit out and turned into a silver light again to avoid the fatal stomp. He then left without looking back.
As he was escaping, Zi Chen could not help but cough up blood. Pale golden blood sprinkled from the sky, and he was in a very sorry state.
This was the first path of the 74 ancient roads. When Zi Chen entered, he was hunted down and the threat of death shrouded him from time to time.
After that, Zi Chen began his life as a fugitive. During his escape, Zi Chen's resources were constantly depleted.
With the exit blocked, Zi Chen could not leave. At this moment, he was like a turtle in a jar, waiting to be caught. Once caught, he would die.
In this place, Zi Chen did not even have the chance to stop and catch his breath, let alone cultivate or breakthrough. It was as if these tall creatures would never be exhausted. They chased after Zi Chen with all their might.
This situation of being chased lasted for seven days. After seven days, Zi Chen found a towering mountain peak. This mountain peak was emitting a unique aura. When Zi Chen approached the mountain peak, his body began to become unstable and he fell from the sky.
The reason why Zi Chen fell was because this mountain peak was emitting an extremely strong suction force. This suction force made Zi Chen unprepared and he fell directly. After falling, Zi Chen wanted to control his body and get up again, but he found it extremely difficult.
This suction force was gravity. It suppressed Zi Chen and made him unable to move.
"It's over."
Suddenly losing control of his body, Zi Chen's face was filled with despair. That was because those tall creatures would quickly catch up. Once they caught up, only death would await him and the tortoise dragon.
Zi Chen let out a furious roar. Golden light flashed around his body, and a powerful energy surged through his body. His bones emitted cracking sounds as he forcibly blocked this suction force and slowly stood up.
At this moment, Zi Chen felt like he was carrying a mountain on his back. He staggered into the mountain peak.
The staggering Zi Chen was only a bit faster than a tortoise. If this continued, only death would await him.
Suddenly, Zi Chen seemed to have noticed something and turned his head to look back.
Zi Chen had already wasted quite a bit of time here. According to reason, those tall creatures should have already caught up to him. But there was no movement behind him.
After turning his head, Zi Chen really did see those tall creatures chasing after him. But they didn't come forward. Instead, they stood outside the mountain peak, as if they were extremely afraid of this suction force.
They paced back and forth outside the suction force, surrounding the entire mountain peak. In addition, there were also some creatures moving rocks from the distance. They whistled through the air and threw them at Zi Chen.
Because of the suction force, those rocks fell in a straight line when they got close to the mountain peak. They were simply unable to get close to Zi Chen.
Seeing this scene, Zi Chen laughed heartily. "Haha, the heavens never seal off all paths."
He was saved. He was saved by this suction force. Of course, it could also be said that he was trapped. But Zi Chen didn't think so.
Inside the suction force, those tall creatures were unable to do anything to him. And he had enough time. During this time, Zi Chen could strive for a breakthrough in strength and then charge out.
Therefore, Zi Chen stopped here and prepared to stay here to cultivate. As for the torvosaurus, it continued to sleep at the side.
Now, Zi Chen's strength was already at the pinnacle of Grade 1. Once he broke through, he would be at Grade 2. This was a watershed. Although it was only a difference of one grade, the difference in strength was huge. Using the Primal Core Realm's classification, Grade 1 was the middle stage of the Primal Core Realm, and Grade 2 was the late stage of the Primal Core Realm.
Zi Chen's strength had reached the watershed. So had his elemental energy. He was at the peak of the early stage of the Primal Core Realm, not far from the middle stage.
However, it wasn't easy to break through these two bottlenecks. Based on the situation here, Zi Chen's strength breakthrough was slightly easier than his elemental energy breakthrough. This was because he had discovered many resources on the ancient road that could increase his strength.
Therefore, Zi Chen began to focus on increasing his strength.
Outside the gravitational field of the mountain, the group of tall creatures didn't stay idle. They first made sharp provocative sounds at Zi Chen. When they found that it was useless, they moved more large rocks.
On the second day, a few more tall creatures came. These creatures were much stronger than before. After they appeared, they lifted large rocks and smashed them at Zi Chen, who was in the middle of the Gravity Mountain.
The rocks let out sharp whistling sounds and passed through the Gravity Mountain in an instant. Then, they resisted the huge gravitational force of the mountain and smashed towards Zi Chen.
Zi Chen heard the sound and opened his eyes. When he saw the large rocks whistling towards him, his expression changed drastically. He grabbed the torvosaurus and dodged to the side.
Peng.
The large rocks brushed past Zi Chen's body and smashed into the ground. The huge impact caused the mountain to shake.
Zi Chen's forehead was already covered in cold sweat. He was even more afraid of these tall creatures. After knowing that this place wasn't safe, Zi Chen walked towards the depths of the mountain.
Behind him, there were many rocks that were not willing to give up. However, they could only fall to the place where Zi Chen was standing. They couldn't go any further.
After advancing for about a hundred meters, Zi Chen stopped and began to focus on cultivation.
The torvosaurus was still sleeping. Zi Chen began to drink wine and then refined it. After his body was filled with energy, Zi Chen began to walk in the gravitational field.
If he wanted to increase his strength, he couldn't just focus on cultivation. Before that, he still needed to consume energy. Just like when he wrestled with the Barbarian Bulls and Barbarian Tigers. The gravity here was very strong. In the beginning, Zi Chen could only walk slowly. However, as he slowly adapted, Zi Chen's steps gradually became stable.
As time passed, Zi Chen's speed became faster and faster. Not only were his steps smooth, he could even jog. This scene caused the distant creatures to stare at him with wide eyes. Then, more rocks were smashed down.
He wasn't satisfied with being able to jog. Soon after, he picked up another large rock and started to run.
Zi Chen was cultivating in the Gravity Mountain. The tall creatures outside were still guarding there. They would throw out many rocks every day. As Zi Chen's strength became stronger, the rocks thrown out by them also became denser and denser.
This situation lasted for an entire year. Zi Chen was also trapped for an entire year. During this year, the torvosaurus was still sleeping. He could also increase his strength while sleeping.
