As he ran with the herd of strange beasts, Qin Mu saw that the land ahead of them suddenly sloped doards into a valley Ancient, untouched structures were strewn throughout the village, such as ruined palaces, an enormous plaza, and even majestic skyscrapers

"So there really was remnant of civilization ahead of us!" Qin Mu exclai ruins was a towering gate that spanned the entrance to the valley Marble pillars ons sculpted into the marble of each one so that they appeared to coil upward

The herd of strange beasts turned towards the gate, rushing toward the ruins

Qin Mu inadvertently glanced upwards, and his scalp went nu down into the valley like a wave of ink!

"It’s here!" he screaate to the ruins and engulf it!

As if they could sense this as well, the strange beasts running alongside Qin Mu grew frantic They rushed the gate with evenother more careless beasts to death

Now definitely wasn’t the time to be calm and orderly—If they couldn’t reach the ruins in front of them before the darkness arrived, they would die horrible deaths!

Sprinting forward rabbed onto a behe a ride on it, the behe aside and tra all of the other beasts in its path

Some of the beasts that the behemoth left in its wake leaped forward and latched onto its tail as well, allowing it to bring theripped the behemoth’s tail, Qin Mu looked below hie beasts that had been ferocious during the day were now tre to the behemoth’s tail for their very lives When he turned to look farther behind the the behe for the ruins

Finally, just before the darkness engulfed the gate, the beheust of wind

At that same exact ate as well However, of the five youths, only three of theh before the darkness engulfed it Senior Brother Qu, Senior Sister Qing, and one other youth h, but the other two disciples were a hair too late Between the two, one only ot the front half of his body through—the back half had been claih the gate, he irab onto his two junior brothers

Taking hold of the visible ar white skeleton to ee from the darkness

Before Senior Brother Qu could even reach for the other youth, he collapsed to the ground

The blood of the surviving disciples ran cold Flesh, blood, and clothing still covered the front half of the youth, but all of the other half of his body had been stripped down to the bone, devoured by so in the darkness

"Why does this darkness exist!’ Senior Sister Qing screaled to stay co breath

"Death is like a la out Our two junior brothers were brave and heroic They died trying to vanquish a devil," he solemnly said "That devil brat purposely cae of the darkness and use it to kill us!"

"He’s somewhere in these ruins He won’t be able to escape us with the darkness everywhere," said the youth who survived Ruthless fury could be heard in his voice, a clear indication of how much the deaths of his fellow disciples affected hie our junior brothers by chopping that devil brat into a thousand pieces!"

"He’s over there!" Senior Sister Qing exclai Qin Mu jump from the tail of the behemoth "You still have the audacity to try and escape after causing the deaths of two of my junior brothers, little devil?"

Her accusations annoyed Qin Mu

"You were the ones who chased me for no reason How are their deaths my fault when it was you who decided to relentlessly chase htfall? I didn’t provoke you in any way, yet you pursuedmy life Aren’t I the one who’s innocent here?"

Senior Sister Qing gritted her teeth "How dare you try to argue with me, you little devil…!"

"You’re the devil!" Qin Mu yelled, flying into a rage "Granny and I only killed an elk to uys killed an entire herd of them, yet you still dare to say we’re the devils in this situation?"

A dark expression appeared on Senior Brother Qu’s face and he stepped forwards

"The little devil is skilled at stirring up the doubt in our hearts We don’t need to waste ti… we just need to kill him!"

As soon as he said this, the three of therowl resounded throughout the ruins They looked around to find out where it came from, and what they saw instilled shock in their hearts Gathered throughout the ruins were hundreds of thousands of strange beasts There were even plenty of beasts that were powerful enough to have their own territories Every single beast looked down at the three relint in all of their eyes
