Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 126: Black Twilight King Snake

Alan sat cross-legged against an ancient pine with his eyes closed. He had already eaten a simple dinner, but now he was tempering his Origin Energy. The orange-colored Origin Energy surged through the blood vessels in his body. As he circulated, the Origin Energy and stamina he had consumed from traveling were recovering. Moreover, his body temperature had risen and he was not afraid of the cold in the middle of the night.

Ow!

A deep and vigorous cry of a bear suddenly sounded. It rolled through the forest and snow like thunder and entered Allen's eyes.

"Eh?" Alan opened his eyes and stretched out his legs to sweep out a layer of snow and ice on the campfire. After extinguishing the fire, he lifted his saber and bounced up, looking in the direction where the bear's cry came from. It was late at night, and the Tyrant Bear was not a nocturnal animal. It was not normal for a bear to bark at this time.

Tonight, the moonlight was very good. The moonlight cast on the snow made the forest look like it was covered with a layer of silver veil. Alan saw it clearly. Suddenly, a huge wild beast pounced out from the east. Under the moonlight, this was an adult Tyrant Bear. It was covered in a layer of silver fur, and its chubby body even made it look somewhat honest and cute. However, once he saw the two sharp teeth on the Tyrant Bear's lips, as well as its long, curved paws, he was completely unable to associate it with "adorable".

The Tyrant Bearman stood up, with a dark gray hair on its chest, forming a "V" pattern. It looked in the direction of the Snowy Mountain of Revolving Clouds in the east. Its two bean-sized eyeballs emitted a shocking red light under the moonlight, leaving behind two faint red tracks in the air as the bear's head moved. Allen looked at the Snowy Mountain of Revolving Clouds. At this moment, a loud explosion sounded from the direction of the Snowy Mountain, and it sounded like an avalanche. Sure enough, not long after, a cold aura swept over from the direction of the snow mountain.

The cold wind whistled through the forest with ice chips, and Alan shrank back, feeling his cheeks hurt from the wind and snow. After the cold wind blew, the fat Tyrant Bear twisted its body and slowly walked in Alan's direction. He circled a few times under a fir tree and leaned against it, lying in the snow.

This is a godsend.

Alan thought to himself that he would probably be able to return to the camp in the morning. He wielded his saber and darkened it. He took small steps, borrowing the cover of trees and snow to sneak towards the back of the Tyrant Bear. A moment later, Ellen crouched behind a bush of grass. In front of him, the Tyrant Bear exposed its broad back to Ellen. Alan gently pulled out his saber, trying to avoid appearing under the moonlight, so as not to attract the attention of the Tyrant Bear.

Many of the Tyrant Bear's abilities carried the power of ice and snow, not to mention its astonishing power. There was no better way to deal with such a dangerous species than to kill them in one blow.

This was precisely the killing skill that Alan was familiar with.

Putting the straight knife behind his back, Alan lowered his body. He bypassed the bushes and closed his breath. His gaze landed on the snow not far from the Tyrant Bear, avoiding paying too much attention to the bear and provoking the reaction of the Tyrant Bear. He quietly hid himself from the giant beast. When he saw that it was only seven to eight meters away from the Tyrant Bear, a gust of wind blew from behind Alan. In the blink of an eye, the Tyrant Bear's fur was blown up and down in the wind.

Whether it was an illusion or not, Alan seemed to hear someone whispering as the wind blew by. But he ignored all of this, and when the wind blew by, Alan knew that it was going to be terrible. He cursed inwardly in his heart, but he couldn't care less about stealth. The tip of his foot stirred up a layer of ice and snow, and Alan shot at the Tyrant Bear like a javelin.

Sure enough, almost at the same time, the Tyrant Bear roared and sat up from the snow. And twisted the bear's body. Two scarlet gazes immediately fell on Allen's body. The gust of wind from before had also sent Alan's scent into the Tyrant Bear's nose. If Alan was able to sneak attack successfully, then he would really be in for a bloody hell.

The Tyrant Bear is not good at agility when it sees Alan. Alan had already slashed out with his saber, and a practicing saber light tore through the air along an arc, stirring up the snow. As the saber light traveled halfway, it suddenly shattered and exploded into hundreds of tiny pieces in the eyes of the Tyrant Bear, occupying the entire line of sight of the Behemoth!

Shattered Moon!

Allen used the saber technique he had just comprehended. Under the effect of the shock of his ability, the crescent moon shattered and his energy shot out. Tyrant Bear immediately sprang up numerous fine blood arrows from his body, and in an instant, he was struck by countless saber qi attacks. The bear's nose was cut in half by the knife. The bear's blood sprayed out and turned into a ball of blood mist. The air immediately filled with a strong smell of blood.

The sudden attack on the Tyrant Bear not only did it not shock Alan, it instead aroused his fierceness. He stood up, his heart suddenly glowing with Origin Energy. The Tyrant Bear opened its mouth and let out a heaven-shaking roar at Alan. Alan was dizzy from the loud noise. The temperature around his body suddenly dropped, and the surface of his skin quickly climbed onto the ice. It was obvious that the Tyrant Bear's roar contained some sort of ability.

The ice flower emitted a frightening cold aura and drilled into Alan's pores, making him feel like he had fallen into an ice cave, and his blood seemed to be about to condense. The Tyrant Bear couldn't help but froze as it took the opportunity to charge forward. The origin energy in Alan's body whistled and flew through his veins for an instant, melting away the invading cold energy, allowing Alan to move again.

But at this time, the giant bear had already rushed over.

Allen first kicked the ground, then retracted his saber and blocked his chest. At the same time, he activated the ability of Silent Guardian, forming a faint Origin Energy barrier on the surface of his body. The Tyrant Bear crashed into him, and the Origin Energy barrier shattered. Alan's entire body trembled violently, as if he had been hit by a flying car, and he was sent flying backwards. After scattering a pile of snow, he finally hit a thick fir tree a dozen meters away before landing back on the ground.

Alan coughed out a mouthful of blood, but the pressure on his chest lightened and his breathing became smoother. He wiped off the blood and stood up again with a knife. If it hadn't been for the adequate protective measures just now, if it had been hit by this giant beast, a few broken bones would have been the lightest injury. How could it have been as simple as spitting out a mouthful of blood?

The experience of battling Blood Hand finally manifested itself at this moment. In the face of an overwhelming expert like Blood Hand, Allen was squeezing every bit of his potential to survive under his hands. At that time, even being beaten became a subject of learning. How to weaken the opponent's attack power, how to protect oneself more effectively, all of these actions must be completed at high speed.

At that time, thinking couldn't keep up with the changes, and only intuition could make the most correct judgment. Now, all of this experience had transformed into Allen's instincts, as natural as breathing.

The Tyrant Bear gasped heavily and spat out two streams of air from its bleeding nostrils. His eyes were filled with resentment, and he wished he could immediately pounce on Alan and tear him to shreds. However, a Tier 6 Dangerous Beast was no less intelligent than an adult male. It looked at the saber in Allen's hand with a hint of fear. Allen pointed his saber and circulated his Origin Energy at full speed, forming a prairie blade in front of his forehead.

With a boom, the flames on the saber breathed. The sudden flames caused Bao Xiong's eyes to narrow. He caught this short moment and Alan attacked!

The Tyrant Bear roared and opened its arms to welcome him.

Just as the man and bear were about to encounter each other, the Tyrant Bear's movements suddenly slowed down. Alan didn't know what had happened to the giant bear. He only knew that this was a rare opportunity. Just as he was about to cut off his throat and kill the giant beast, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in Alan's ears.

"Alan "

Alan's voice was gentle and melodious, causing his entire body to tremble, and his eyes to shoot out incredulous gazes.

That's Lanny's voice!

"Mom?" Alan stopped, still holding the burning saber in his hand, and turned around to look behind him.

Behind him was the eastern side of the forest. The Snow Revolving Cloud Mountain revealed a blurry outline under the moonlight, and a slender figure faintly appeared in the shadows of the forest in the distance. How did that shadow look similar to Lanny?

'"Alan, come to my side" Lanny's voice seemed to be drifting in her ears again.

Alan's eyes gradually became confused. In his eyes, the figure in the distance seemed to be clearer. He seemed to see his mother standing under an old panasonic tree, smiling faintly. Just like when he lived in Gobi Town, when he returned home after a day of wild fun outside, he would always see his mother standing by the door, looking at him with a loving and reproachful gaze.

Is everything okay to go back?

"Of course, child. I'm right here." Lanny whispered.

Alan's eyes gradually lost focus. He mechanically raised his leg and moved in the direction of the figure in his eyes. He didn't know that the devil gem on the hilt of the saber was emitting a bloody luster. The Abyss Devil Gem continued to shine, and in the end, it suddenly flickered in the snow. The Origin Energy in Allen's body suddenly surged, and the prairie blade on his forehead shone brightly.

In response to the seals, the flames on the knife exploded, and the flames even splashed onto Ellen's hand. Alan was burned by the fire and hurt. He loosened his grip and the knife fell to the ground. Allen's eyes returned to their focus, and he stared at Lanny in the shadows of the forest in the distance.

At the corner of his eyes, the Tyrant Bear walked past Alan. The giant beast shook its fat body and walked towards the east of the forest step by step. It wasn't just the Tyrant Bear. Alan was surprised to see that many dangerous species had suddenly appeared behind him. The Swordtooth Berserk Wolf, the Tyrannosaurus Lizard, the Horned Lion, and so on, one dangerous species after another walked out from all directions in the forest. It was as if he had been summoned by something, and his gaze was dull as he walked towards the direction of Snowy Mount Shiyun.

Alan picked up the straight knife and recalled what happened just now. It was as if he had been hypnotized. This situation was similar to the one the Maritans had encountered in the alleys of Black Street, except that the last time he quickly came to his senses, this time it was clearly much more serious. Fortunately, the engraving had been activated, awakening the flames released by the burning. However, he didn't know that after he woke up, the devil praise behind his waist had returned to normal.

Looking at the other dangerous species that had been hypnotized but hadn't woken up, Alan felt a chill run down his spine. Just what was it that was able to release such a large amount of spiritual energy, affecting a large number of dangerous species?

Suddenly, Alan remembered something.
