Cultivation Pet Shop - 962 End of the road

Once the skeleton fish swallowed the ball of strange energy, they could feel the strange energy coming from the skeleton fish become stronger.

It seemed that these skeleton fish and the skeletons from before were chasing the strange energy because it made them stronger.

So when the skeletal hands were grabbing Angela and Yuki, they assumed that these were the remains of one of the fallen that they could absorb the strange energy from.

It was also why they chased the strange energy balls that Lin Fan released.

This was their path to becoming stronger.

After that skeleton fish swallowed the ball of strange energy, it immediately turned its attention back to Lin Fan’s group.

The same thing was happening with the other groups of skeleton fish that had gone to chase the other balls of strange energy.

Seeing this, Lin Fan quickly gathered more balls of strange energy that he threw out around them.

Once the bait was thrown out, all of the skeleton fish turned away from Lin Fan’s group and turned their attention back to the balls of strange energy floating there.

It became another mad scramble to see who could get to it first.

Just like this, they were able to quickly make their way across the stone bridge and get closer to the end. However, it still took them quite a bit of time before they were able to reach the end.

Calculating the distance, it was several hundred kilometers that they had to travel across this small stone bridge.

They were high level cultivators, so they were able to move at incredible speeds. But even then, they had to spend quite a bit of time before they were able to reach the end.

Not to mention, they had to slow down from time to time as more and more skeleton fish appeared around them.

Every time that they appeared, Lin Fan had to throw out even more balls of strange energy around them to distract these skeleton fish.

In the end, they had more than double the amount of skeleton fish gathered around them.

If Lin Fan ran out of life energy, it really would be hard for them to escape from these skeleton fish.

Even if they left this bridge, they didn’t know what would happen. The skeleton fish were still surrounding them and they didn’t think that they would just leave them alone once they got off the bridge.

So they still had to think of a way to deal with them once they got off the bridge.

However, when they reached the end of the bridge, they were surprised by what happened.

Instead of following them, the skeleton fish all suddenly stopped chasing after them and returned to the bottom of the canyon. In the blink of an eye, they had all disappeared without a trace.

If they hadn’t seen the skeleton fish, they might have even doubted that they had existed.

But since they weren’t chasing them, they couldn’t help letting out a sigh of relief.

That was because Lin Fan was already running out of life energy at this time.

He had managed to keep going with his void laws and the suns in his dantian providing life energy for him, but it was hard to keep it up with the extra skeleton fishes that had appeared at the end.

So he was getting low on life energy near the end.

He was tempted to go back and see if he could catch one of the skeleton fish to drain of its strange power, but he thought better of it in the end.

That was because he could see the time ticking down on him.

There wasn’t much time left for the mission and if he were to waste more time on this place, then it would be too late for him to finish it.

So with a heavy heart, he had no choice but to give up this idea and continue on the journey.

The rest of the journey was actually surprisingly short since the bridge had actually been a shortcut. It was supposed to be a long wrap around across the canyon based on what Lin Fan could see, so the fact that they had cut right across the canyon had actually saved time.

As for what that wrap around was, Lin Fan was certain that there must have been another way through the canyon that was much harder.

After all, if it wasn’t for the strange energy that Lin Fan had absorbed, he definitely wouldn’t have been able to distract the skeleton fish.

So that was the only reason they had been able to take this shortcut.

There was nothing that happened during the journey to the final destination, but when they arrived, they couldn’t help being shocked by what they saw.

Even the three Rulers couldn’t help being shocked by this since this was something that they had never seen.

It was a mountain as one might expect of a final destination, but…

This mountain just looked like a complete stereotype of what a final battle location would look like.please visit pαпᵈα-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

This mountain had thunder raining down on its peak and there was smoke soaring into the sky like it was a volcano.

It was every bit like what one would expect from a final battle location…

Lin Fan couldn’t help revealing a bitter smile as he muttered to himself, “Could it be that we’ll have to fight the sealed god of the mountain too?”

After all, that was the cliche ending to most of these final battles…

But still, this was where the map was pointing them, so that was where they had to go.

At the very least though, when they approached the mountain, Lin Fan found that the map had zoomed in and he was able to more accurately see the location of the item that they were supposed to find.

As expected, it was at the very top of the mountain.

So first they had to make their way up.

They would fly up, but with the thunder raining down, it made it really hard for them to fly.

After all, the moment that they flew up above everything else, the thunder would all immediately concentrate on them. Unless they wanted to be burnt to a crisp, it was best not to fly into the sky.

So the only thing that they could do was walk up the mountain.

While there were bolts of thunder that would fall down on them from time to time, these were much easier to block. With all the cover that was found on the mountain, they could even easily make their way to the peak without being struck.

As for what this cover was, it was the plants that had grown in this environment.

To grow in a place that was constantly being struck by thunder, the plants had adapted and gained powerful resistance to electricity. Most of the plants were able to easily channel the electric energy into the ground without any harm to their own body.

So with these things providing cover for them, they were able to easily make their way up the side of the mountain.

It was only when they were halfway that they found that there was a problem.

There was a river of lava that was in their way.

The smoke plume that came from the top of the mountain really seemed to be an indicator of a volcano. This was backed even more by the appearance of this river of lava in their way.

Though they guessed that it was a river, it was better to say that this was a complete sea of lava that they couldn’t see the other side of at all.

They could fly across it just like with the canyon, but there was also the risk that there was something hiding inside of the lava.

So the only thing that they could do again was try to find a bridge across this river of lava.

It didn’t take long to find the bridge, but it was just like the one from before.

No, this one was actually much more flimsy compared to the one from before.

There were only a few rocks that were floating in the lava that formed a bridge. But these were very flimsy and looked like they could tip over at any moment, so it was much worse than that simple stone bridge.

But they still had no choice.

To their surprise, the number of thunderbolts that fell down in this place was much less than the other places on this mountain. It was easy for them to ignore it and just swat away the occasional one that fell.

As they took their first steps on these floating rocks, they really expected to be attacked by things hiding under the lava. However, there wasn’t a single thing that popped out of the surface of the lava to attack them.

It was as if there was nothing that was living under the lava at all.

Though that wouldn’t be surprising.

That was because they could feel the heat coming from the lava.

It was even at a level where the three Rulers felt uncomfortable with.

If it wasn’t for Yuki putting a snow barrier around them that kept them cool, they would have already been sweating.

For Rulers to think that the heat coming from the lava was hot, it wasn’t hard to imagine just how hot the actual lava was.

This place was definitely anything but ordinary.

But that was to be expected of a cultivation realm that the system had sent them to.
