The landscape, the climate, and the environment here gave Lu Ling the feeling of being in the Third Heaven. But the flying beasts gave Lu Ling a strange feeling.
Warriors at the Third Heaven did not have the habit of riding beasts. They usually rode chariots and battleships.
It would be fine if they were regular flying beasts. But Lu Ling sensed that the beasts ahead were strong. Some of them were as powerful as warriors of the fifth tribulation.
To tame beasts that were as powerful as warriors of the fifth tribulation as mounts was a difficult task. Not even the average lord could do this.
Would a powerful lord do such a thing?
It was not like he had nothing better to do.
The city in front of them was not particularly large. But there were hundreds of beasts wandering above. It was a strange scene. If this were a city in the Third Heaven, this scene would have been known to the world.
Lu Li felt something was off as well. The beasts seemed to be hovering above the city freely. There was no one controlling them.
If there were no people, it would be a paradise for beasts.
Even if the beasts were domesticated, they would not be allowed to roam freely in the air. What if they hurt people?
"Whoosh!"
A beast was flying over from the distance. Lu Li and Lu Ling retreated for thousands of feet and hid in a forest.
Lu Ling was afraid to use psychic power while Lu Li used the Trace of Great Path to sense.
It was a huge black bird. The bird's wings were at least two thousand feet long when spread out, like a dark cloud.
More than one hundred people sat on the back of the bird. There was a white shield on the back of the bird.
A strand of psychic power came down and scanned Lu Ling and Lu Li. But the bird did not pay much attention to them. The bird whooshed by and soon disappeared into the distance.
Lu Ling did not have the courage to use psychic power, but Lu Li could sense clearly through the trace of great Dao. He could see everyone's appearance clearly.
He pulled a long face and his eyes were filled with confusion. He could not figure it out.
Lu Ling frowned and asked, "Lu Li, what is it?"
"This is not the Abyss of Demons!"
Lu Li said with certainty. Then he added, "This is not the Third Heaven either. We have come to an unknown world."
Lu Ling was alarmed as well. She asked, "How can you be so sure?"
"There were more than a hundred people on that big bird just now. Half of them were Fifth Tribulation experts, and one of them should be a Lord. I didn't understand what they were saying, but if I'm not wrong, it should be the common ancient language."
"Ancient common language?"
Lu Ling frowned. Nobody in the Third Heaven spoke the ancient language anymore. Even the 10 ancient races like her had stopped speaking it a long time ago.
Just then, out of the 100 or so people that passed by, there was a Lord. This meant that this was definitely not a small world, or else there would not be so many experts.
Moreover, there was a spiritual will that had probed them just now, but this person did not care about the two of them at all. This meant that this was not a small world, otherwise they would have been attacked long ago.
Could this really be another strange big world?
The question was, why had they never heard of such a big world other than the Third Heaven?
Just how big was this world?
As big as the Third Heaven?
Didn't the Demon Lord say that he would send them to the Demonic Abyss?
Why didn't they arrive at the Demonic Abyss, but in such a strange world instead?
Could they go back?
This was what worried Lu Li and Lu Ling the most, especially Lu Li. He had a big family in the Second Heaven. His family, his lover, and his roots were there.
"Don't worry!"
Lu Ling thought about it for a while. She took out her veil and covered her face. She said, "Lu Li, I have learned some ancient languages in the Dragon Rebel Valley. I will go to the city and have a look. Can you wait here?"
"No!"
Lu Li refused decisively, "I will go with you. I won't say anything. You go and negotiate."
They were unfamiliar with this place. Who could tell if there were any dangers?
Also, among the more than 100 people, there was a Lord Realm warrior. How many Lords were there in the city?
Lu Li didn't want to take the risk. Even if he had to die, he wanted the three of them to die together.
Lu Ling didn't say anything else since Lu Li insisted. She was about to fly down when Lu Li suddenly said, "Let's go around the city and see if we can run into anyone.
It will be safer if we can find out the situation outside the city. "
Once they entered the city, they would be at the mercy of others. Lu Li didn't want to take the risk and go into a strange and dangerous place.
They started to run around the city from a distance. Unfortunately, they didn't see anyone after they went around the city.
It seemed that everyone was in the city and none had come out.
"Chirp ~"
On their way, they did see some flying beasts leaving the city and some flying beasts arriving at the city. Those beasts would fly over from the sky, suffocating Lu Li and Lu Ling.
After a few more rounds, Lu Li and Lu Ling stopped in disappointment. There seemed to be no one outside the city.
Either they left the city and went to the distance to have a look or they had to take the risk and go into the city.
"Safety first. I suggest we take a walk in the distance. It doesn't matter if we have to take a detour. There can't be only cities and no tribes.
Even if there is only a city, there can't be no one in the city. "
Lu Li decided not to take the risk after some thoughts. This place might not be the Third Heaven, so it would be more dangerous. Lu Ling was a beauty. If someone like Ling Long came out, it would be even more troublesome. It was better to be careful.
"Sure!"
Lu Ling nodded. This was not the Abyss of Demons. For now, there was no danger. There was no hurry. They could take a look around first.
They ran into the distance. They didn't choose a path. They just went wherever they wanted.
On their way, they entered a mountain. Once again, they ran into many beasts in groups. Fortunately, the beasts were not strong. They could only be as strong as warriors of the Fourth Tribulation Realm.
Lu Ling didn't even have to do anything. Lu Li used the Law of Sound to knock all the beasts out.
After traveling for more than two hours, the two of them stood on a tall mountain and saw another city. Similarly, this city was filled with flying ferocious beasts, soaring and circling in mid-air.
"This is strange. Keep going!"
Lu Li refused to believe it. He circled around the city twice and then carried her on. Six hours later, they saw the third city. It was the same as before. Hundreds of ferocious beasts were flying in the sky.
They were almost certain that this was not the Third Heaven. Otherwise, such a strange scene would have been known to the world. There would be no news about it.
"Buzzing ~"
Lu Ling let Xiang Linglong out when she was almost healed. She was surprised to see the scene as well. She was even more surprised after hearing Lu Ling and Lu Li's explanation.
"Let's go. Let's take a look!"
Lu Li waved his hand and led them on their way around the city.
According to their agreement, they were supposed to go back and meet up with Yang Gang. But Lu Li had no intention of going with Yang Gang. He wanted to go their separate ways.
"Whoosh ~"
After running for an hour, a massive beast flew over from the distance. It looked like a golden-winged Roc, and its entire body shone with a dazzling light. This beast was also very fast. Just a moment ago, it was still tens of thousands of kilometers away, but in the blink of an eye, it arrived in front of them.
Lu Li and the other two hid in the forest at once. There would be psychic power detected from above. Hiding or not wouldn't make much difference.
But hiding would make them appear low-key, indicating that they were making concessions.
In the past, Lu Li and Lu Ling ran into several flying beasts and they were detected by psychic power as well. But the beasts just passed by and didn't pay any attention to them.
They thought it would be the same this time. Unexpectedly, a surge of psychic power came and the beast stopped.
"No, something is wrong!"
