Chapter 1678 Ancient Civilization
He continued to fly deeper and deeper into a terrifying place, a place filled with ferocious beasts.
At this moment, he was extremely far away from a safe city that even humans were most deeply involved in the secret realm.
This distance was roughly equivalent to him traveling from the southernmost region of the Five Continents Realm to the northernmost region of the Northern Region, the Extreme Frost Secret Realm.
What defines the weight of loneliness is probably far away.
This time, he had really gone too far. He had encountered all sorts of strange phenomena and seen all sorts of strange places over and over again.
Another day passed, and the sky changed.
The air here was exceptionally thin. The sky was pitch black, and the stars were unprecedentedly clear.
It was as if the atmosphere above his head had disappeared.
Some people said that the Sacred Domain existed in the middle of a plane. It did not belong to any plane, nor did it belong to any spatial node.
It's a small, independent crack.
In this kind of place, Xiang Nan saw more things that he had never seen in his entire life, even in ancient documents.
At this moment, the area he was in was still a jungle, but the trees in this jungle were incomparably peculiar.
According to Xiang Nan's own theory of knowledge, these trees should be called inorganic living things.
It was unknown what kind of strange natural law the trees here were actually made of metal.
People's understanding of life is always limited to a specific scene, media, such as water, wood, soil, and so on.
No one has ever thought that metal has life.
But Xiang Nan did see it here.
What he saw was a kind of metal, just playing with wood.
He stroked the trunk of a tree and lamented the wonders of nature.
This tree had nearly two thirds of its surface area. It was made of pure metal, and the other third was made of wood. It was as if metal and wood were perfectly combined.
He carefully cut open the tree trunk with his giant saber and discovered that there was still liquid slowly transporting nutrients inside the metal trunk.
"This thing is really strange. Is it called an inorganic organism? It's quite impressive."
Xiang Nan Xia consciously said this out of habit.
However, after a long time, no one responded, he suddenly recalled and smiled. "What's wrong? The big snake has obviously stayed in Dragon Valley, but I haven't gotten used to this kind of thing for many days in a row."
He picked a fruit from the tree. The fruit was two-thirds metal and one-third flesh.
This was a real steel jungle.
The miracle of life was quietly breeding here in a way that no one knew.
He continued forward. After flying through this vast jungle, the trees in front of him had completely turned into pure metal.
Metal wasn't an organism, but Xiang Nan could see the vigorous vitality in the metallic trees through Lightning Photoelectric Eyes.
An even more peculiar situation followed.
Here he began to discover organisms other than plants, some purely metallic insects.
A small ladybug landed on Xiang Nan's shoulder.
He squeezed the ladybug down and held it in front of his eyes. The ladybug's entire body was an iron green color, squeezed flat with his hands, and a crunching sound of metal being crushed could be heard.
The ladybug was crushed, and a pungent liquid flowed out of its body. This liquid was actually a liquid metal, the blood of the ladybug.
In front of this pure steel forest were two towering mountains.
These two mountains were like barriers to the heavens, but they were also like an ignorant human. When they reached the end of the world, they suddenly discovered that the farthest part of the world was actually a wall.
It also gave people the feeling that there was nothing outside the wall.
However, behind the two "walls", there was an incredible fluctuation in the group's vitality.
"There must be a large number of strange creatures inside. It might even be Eternal Vicious Beasts."
Xiang Nan muttered to himself, then immediately took off and flew towards the gap between the two mountains.
But what surprised him even more was that he had actually discovered humans here, as well as ruins that looked very much like those left behind by humans.
Between the two giant mountains was an incomparably large stone gate. The stone gate towered ten thousand feet high, and two flying dragon stone sculptures were carved on the top of the gate.
On both sides of the stone door stood two enormous sculptures that were three thousand meters away.
The sculpture was made of two tall and sturdy warriors. One of them held a strange weapon. It was a weapon that was somewhat similar to a brush.
The other sculpture was bent over, as if it was about to pounce at any moment. It also held a strange weapon in its hand. That weapon was like a … dragon!
Xiang Nan had never seen such a thing before.
The shape and structure of a human weapon were all very simple. Usually, it was for the convenience of hacking and hammering. Very few people would make a weapon look like a creature. Obviously, this was not a good idea.
Could it be that the sculpture depicted a dragon-shaped weapon in hand? It was not a dragon-shaped weapon at all, but a real dragon?
Looking at the stone door, Xiang Nan could not imagine how long it had existed here. It seemed that it was even longer than the lost civilization on the yellow planet.
Life forms known to humans can be deduced from fossils to hundreds of millions of years ago. These are very ancient creatures. Some are similar to half-dragons. They are usually large.
The stone door in front of him was actually even older than those fossils. It might already be several billion years old.
Xiang Xiang Nan was shocked that he actually heard a whispering sound coming from the gap between the two huge stone doors.
Xiang Nan's entire heart suddenly rose to his throat.
Could it be that there are still ancient humans living here?
Could it be that he was about to see an unknown civilization?
He carefully squeezed through the huge crack in the door and quietly glanced inside. However, when he saw it, he was greatly disappointed.
It turned out that he was not the descendant of an ancient civilization, but a modern martial artist.
Hundreds of experts dressed in modern clothes and even wearing the emblem of the Four Emperors Guild were sitting in a spacious hall. Some were talking while others were resting with their eyes closed.
These people's realms were all very high, usually around the ninth level of the Martial Saint realm, and even a small portion of them possessed the realm of the first level of the Heavenly Tribulation realm.
They also noticed Xiang Nan and looked at him curiously.
Seeing that Xiang Nan was a Martial Saint First Layer martial artist, everyone lost interest and went back to their own business.
A beautiful woman walked over curiously and said, "You little child, why did you run so deep? Did you get lost?"
"Damn it, how did you get here along the way? Didn't you get intercepted and killed by a ferocious beast?"
It was a miracle that Xiang Nan was able to reach such a deep place. However, more people were indifferent to Xiang Nan's arrival, indicating that there should be something they cared more about in their hearts that was attracting their attention.
At present, Xiang Nan had no way of guessing what that was.
