By the time Beiya woke up, an entire day had already passed.
When he opened his eyes, what appeared in front of him was a stretch of ruins.
This was once the grandest palace built by his clansmen. Humans were more skilled than beasts, and the palaces they built were all incomparably exquisite.
After wandering in the sea of stars for a very long time, Beiya had never seen a building that could compare to his hometown.
But now, it was all in ruins …
His home was destroyed, but where were his clansmen?
After waking up, Beiya scanned his surroundings and grabbed Yang Tian's arm tightly. He gritted his teeth and said, "Save my clansmen, I beg you …"
Yang Tian nodded and said, "I've already checked the situation here, and I didn't find any corpses.
Your clansmen should still be alive.
Perhaps they were attacked by foreign clansmen and knew that they couldn't win, so they went to another island.
If they encountered such a situation, where would they go? "
As soon as Yang Tian finished speaking, his eyebrows twitched unconsciously. He then lowered his head and fell into deep thought.
A few minutes later, Beiya gritted his teeth and slowly shook his head. "If the island is destroyed, I don't know where my clansmen will go.
The sea of stars is vast, but it's too difficult for us humans to find a place to stay … "
After speaking, Beiya sighed helplessly. He looked at Yang Tian and said, "I didn't understand the situation just now. I don't know where my clansmen went, and I don't know how they are now. You might not be able to help."
… …
The island was no longer a habitable island, so Yang Tian brought Beiya back to the Four Islands Island.
When they arrived at the Four Islands Island, Beiya took the initiative to bid farewell to Yang Tian.
He told Yang Tian that he would find a habitable island to settle down and work hard on his cultivation. When he became stronger, he would look for his clansmen.
When he saw Yang Tian and the Little Blue Dragon leave through the Four Islands Island's teleportation formation, Beiya finally let out a sigh of relief and disappeared into the crowd of beasts on the Four Islands Island.
… …
Half a month later in the Ketla Star's time.
On the destroyed island.
In the ruins of the palace, Northcliff pushed a huge rock to the side and sat down on the ground, letting out a long sigh.
After seeing Yang Tian and the Little Blue Dragon leave through the teleportation array, the North Cliff returned to the vicinity of the teleportation array. He stayed there for half a day before leaving the Four Isles Island. He flew for a total of ten days before returning to the Origin Island.
He did this because he didn't want Yang Tian to know a big secret of the clan.
After Northcliff returned to the ruins of the palace, he kept moving boulders as if he was looking for something. After dozens of hours, he finally couldn't hold on any longer.
North Cliff panted heavily for a while, but there was no longer any air that was beneficial to his body, so it was unable to relieve his fatigue.
Breathing on the current Origin Island was just a kind of biological instinct to prove that they were still alive.
What the North Cliff didn't know was that not far away, Yang Tian and the Little Blue Dragon were squatting behind a huge rock, gnawing on a piece of barbecued meat. There were two huge wine jars beside them. The aroma of the barbecued meat and the aroma of the wine permeated within the small range of the array formation's energy.
Not only was the aroma unable to spread out, but even the light was refracted by the array formation into the vast sea of stars.
"This guy is really too impatient. If it were me, I would have stayed on the Four Isles Island for at least a month or two.
Also, his acting skills are really too bad … … "
Yang Tian said as he tore into the greasy barbecued meat.
The Little Blue Dragon at the side would occasionally squeak in response to Yang Tian.
After Yang Tian and the Little Blue Dragon finished eating the barbecued meat, the North Cliff got up from the ground and continued moving the heavy boulders.
Yang Tian and the Little Blue Dragon held their comfortable stomachs and squatted on a huge rock. They quietly watched all of this with smiles in their eyes.
The North Cliff should be looking for an underground passage or a teleportation array formation. Yang Tian was sure of this.
"Hahaha … …"
When Northern Cliff lifted up another boulder and moved it to the side, he suddenly laughed happily.
At this moment, what the North Cliff didn't know was that other than him, Yang Tian and the Little Blue Dragon were also happy.
After moving the huge rock, the North Cliff finally found an underground passage that could only allow one person to pass through.
After laughing, the North Cliff looked around vigilantly before entering the underground passage.
After entering, the North Cliff smashed a huge rock at the entrance with his palm.
Amidst the loud explosion, the huge rock shattered and blocked the entrance.
"He's quite cautious. Xiao Long, go take a look!"
Yang Tian said with a smile as he watched the rubble collapse and block the entrance.
The Little Blue Dragon jumped up and did a spin in the air before charging into the pile of rocks.
… …
"How could this be?
That was impossible!
Why … … "
After passing through the winding passage, the North Cliff reached the underground palace that was a few hundred meters deep. Looking at the destroyed array formation in the center of the underground palace and the withered corpses of humans and mutated beasts around the array formation, the North Cliff couldn't believe his eyes.
At this moment, he felt that he had been completely abandoned.
Back when he returned to the Source Island with Yang Tian and saw the desolate scene, the North Cliff was indeed in pain.
However, later on, when Yang Tian asked him where the North Cliff people would go, he suddenly recalled a legend he had heard when he was young.
According to the legend, in the distant past, the North Cliff people saved an injured Divine Dragon.
When the Divine Dragon left, he gave the North Cliff people a huge gift. That was an undeveloped habitable island.
To the Divine Dragon tribe that roamed the universe, it was actually very normal for them to discover a few habitable islands and give them to humans who needed them.
The Divine Dragon tribe didn't care about these islands, but to the humans on the Source Island, they were spare living territories. They were places that could save lives. They were simply too precious.
As such, the tribe leader and a few elders decided that they wouldn't use this spare island unless the tribe was in danger of being exterminated.
The array formation in front of North Cliff was the teleportation array that led to the habitable island.
Unfortunately, it had already been destroyed.
There were a total of three human corpses and two very small beast corpses beside the array formation. From the degree of desiccation of the corpses, the Little Blue Dragon, who was hiding at the side, could guess that the time of death of these people and beasts was several decades ago.
"Ahhhh … …"
Beiya, who was in despair, suddenly shouted loudly. As if he had gone mad, he kept pounding the ground with his fists.
Because he didn't use the energy in his body, his fists swelled up after a few hits, and blood splattered everywhere … …
Seeing this, the Little Blue Dragon immediately turned around and flew back the way it came.
When Yang Tian walked into the underground palace, North Cliff was still crying on the ground. He was in a state of selflessness, and he didn't even notice Yang Tian's footsteps.
Yang Tian stood behind North Cliff and raised his head to look at the ceiling of the underground palace. In the middle of the curved ceiling of the underground palace, there was a huge glowing crystal. From the energy waves it emitted, it was an ordinary runic treasure.
A long time had passed, and the energy of the runic treasure used to light up the place was almost used up. The light it emitted was already very dim.
Yang Tian took out a beast core. With a flick of his finger, he accurately sent the beast core into the groove on the crystal. Instantly, the underground palace became brighter.
