227 transcendent creatures
In the silent forest, Chen Jue once again passed by the lake where he scooped water yesterday, which was the farthest point detected yesterday.
After observing the surrounding environment, it is true that there are only traces left by the place where I passed by yesterday. Except for the pit that had been torn open by his own kick, there was no sign of life anywhere else.
I scooped up some water with a water cup and tested the water quality again, and the result was the same as yesterday, so Chen Jue confidently and boldly poured a few cups, replenished the water needed by the human body, and by the way, took a folding sapper shovel to dig a hole by the lake, put the backpack in, and then pulled some leaves to cover it.
On the subsequent journey, Chen never planned to take this obstructive backpack again, but went on the road lightly throughout the journey, wearing an aerospace combat uniform, carrying a Tang knife, and carrying eight telescopic javelins for self-defense.
Bypassing the small lake more than two hundred meters wide, Chen Jue was unhurried and went straight to the edge of the forest where there was a golden light curtain in the eyes of the [Xuanmen Wangqi Technique].
With his agility attribute of breaking 5 now, if he wants to pass the 100-kilometer distance quickly, he can run the whole sprint in less than half an hour.
But Chen decided to conserve his strength, and basically relied on brisk walking.
Affected by the state bonus of [Shenxing Taibao], the undulating terrain in the forest is like walking on the ground for him, and the canopy of this alien tree is wide, and the interval between each tree is more than ten meters, unlike the old forest of Gongshan that he has been to before, the path is narrow and there are many bushes.
It's just that the closer he got to the invisible light curtain, the quieter Chen Jue's whole person became, emitting his body's magnetic field in the state of [Heaven and Man Unity] and living in harmony with the surrounding plants and trees.
He heard the sound of insects and insects in the forest behind the invisible light curtain a hundred meters away.
"Finally the breath of life!" Chen sighed in his determination, the bonus of [Downwind Ear] allowed him to hear the wind and grass within a radius of hundreds of meters, especially when this forest was so silent.
The faint noises, against the backdrop of the silence, became extremely harsh when they fell to his ears.
Slowing down his pace and coming to the edge of the invisible light curtain, Chen Jue took a closer look at it with the [Xuanmen Wangqi Technique], and found that the golden light curtain rising from the ground was like a circle of dividing lines.
On the side of the inside, there are only signs of vegetation survival, and there are traces of life activities and breath left after crossing the other end.
"Is it a formation?"
"Or is it natural?" Chen Jue squatted down to check it, and cut the soil with his hands, and found that there was a clear difference between the soil and rocks on both sides.
Although the rock on the other side also has subtle dark gold lines, it is not as rich as this one, just like the gold content of gold ore, showing a cliff-like fall.
Cautiously stepping over this invisible light curtain and coming to the other side, Chen Jue took a deep breath and found that even the innate concentration in the air had turned straight down.
"Is such a clear dividing line caused by the mountain that appears to be a building of wood?" Chen Jue secretly guessed, and looked up at the new environment in front of him with the eyes of [Clairvoyance].
It is also a forest of tall trees, but the growth of these trees is much worse than that within a hundred kilometers behind them.
In addition to signs of insects and animals gnawing, as well as traces of damp moss all over the ground, Chen Jue also saw a fire-like charred black and a thick hole in the mouth of a bowl on several trees.
There are also a few large trees that have been broken off at the waist, but the broken parts are full of traces of mushrooms, moss, and weeds, and it seems that they are not caused recently.
"Cracked by thunder? Or is it something else? Chen Jue looked at the broken trees and thought in his mind.
Slowly walking forward for more than three hundred meters, Chen Jue discovered the first living creature on this strange planet.
It was a group of palm-sized insects, with three segments on its body, black and red carapaces, two tentacles on its head, and slender six legs, full of spikes and whiskers, and a long pointed and serrated jaw, which looked very similar to the ants on the earth, but the largest bull ants on the earth could not compare!
Moreover, the aura emanating from this group of ants and insects made Chen Jue's whole person feel excited, and there was a faint sense of threat.
In particular, one by one, they were constantly creeping up and down from the trunk to the exit of the nest at the base of the tree, dragging the pieces of the carcass of some kind of animal, as well as the pieces of wild fruits.
Seeing this scene, Chen Jue held his breath and gathered his mind.
After preliminarily sensing the entrance of the nest with the induction of heaven and man, Chen Jue found that the nest of ants and insects buried deep in the ground was like a huge underground city, and it spread to the invisible barrier not far behind him.
And in the deepest part of the nest, there was an ant insect that fed back to him a mental magnetic field fluctuation with doubt, vigilance, and vigilance!
The fluctuating feedback of this spiritual magnetic field made Chen Jue think of a huge queen ant with a body as white as jade and a body length of nearly half a meter.
In the next second, I saw those giant ants who were carrying food, their tentacles swinging one by one, turning their postures, and sending out a "hiss" low-frequency insect chirp towards Chen Jie.
Apparently reminded by the queen ant underground, he warned Chen Jie, a strange species that had intruded into their territory!
"Lie down in a big groove!"
"Ants have become sperm?"
"Wait, if you can mobilize the psychic magnetic field, this queen ant should be considered an extraordinary lifeform?" Chen Jie's eyes showed a bit of solemnity, and he hurriedly conveyed his goodwill to the owner of the fluctuating spiritual magnetic field.
Immediately after that, another wave of psychic magnetic field emanated from the ground, and the vigilant giant ants relented a little and continued their carrying work.
Seeing this forbidden scene, Chen Jue couldn't help but swallow his saliva, as if facing an army, and said in his mouth: "I'm sorry! Excuse me!"
Then, with his footwork, he avoided the entrance to the anthill and headed farther into the forest.
After walking a few kilometers away, the figure of the giant ant became less and less, and the mental magnetic field fluctuations of the underground ant queen also began to dissipate, and Chen Jue knew that he should have stepped out of their territory.
"Whew!"
"It's a good thing these giant ants are neutral creatures and didn't storm me."
"Such a big ant, if you get bitten ......" Chen Jieyan breathed a sigh of relief, thinking about it, he felt that his scalp was troublesome, and cautiously glanced back at the invisible golden light curtain.
He felt that the invisible light curtain composed of geomagnetic fields not only separated the innate concentration of the forest from the inside and outside, but also isolated the danger from the light curtain, which must have been formed for some special reason, otherwise the giant ants would not have set up a nest around the ground of this light curtain.
"Is it possible that other creatures dare not approach the light curtain, and it is also related to the existence of these giant ants?" Chen Jue had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but he looked at the sky hidden by the big trees and felt that this place should not be as simple as he thought.
After passing through the territory of the giant ants, Chen Jie's next steps became more cautious.
After walking for about five kilometers, he came to a river about ten meters wide and four or five meters deep.
The water in the river is a bit turbulent, the bottom is a large pebble, although the water is clear, you can see water life such as moss floats, and occasionally a few slender fish with blue and silver scales swim at the bottom of the river.
The reason why they are called strange fish is because these fish are as long as an elbow, with two whiskers in their mouths, and the fins on their abdomen are wide and slender, longer than the whole fish, as if they had two wings hanging on their sides. If it stirs up a wave, it will disturb the flow of water and make a splash on the surface of the river.
Chen Du visually measured the swimming speed of these strange fish, which was definitely more than 40 meters per second, which was already beyond the fastest species of sailfish known to swim on Earth.
Moreover, this river channel is obviously not deep, and seeing fish swimming so fast in such a small river, Chen Jue feels that his eyes are not enough.
"Gan! Yesterday, I said that there was a wave, and it was a giant ant and a strange fish...... Could the creatures of this strange planet be influenced by a congenital masterpiece and evolve more thoroughly than the creatures of the earth? Such thoughts crossed my mind.
Chen Jue stood on the edge of the river, staring at the strange fish that swam quickly at the bottom of the river, their fins were not only powerful, but also mixed with colorful scales, shining in the sunlight.
As I was watching, there was a buzzing sound in my ears, as if something was flying from the river.
When I looked up at the sound, I saw a huge moth with flapping wings, chasing the scales emitted from the fins of those strange fish at the bottom of the river, flying all the way closer.
But before the basin-sized white moth approached the water, a strange fish at the bottom suddenly flapped its wings, and jumped out of the water like a flying fish on the earth and bit at the moth.
The white moth's wings fluttered, and it suddenly soared several meters away, avoiding the attack of the strange fish.
Just as Chen Jie's trapping process, which resembles the jungle in nature, ended because the moth escaped, another monster fish with a larger body jumped out of the water from behind, and the wide winged fins slammed into the ground, and actually took it up five or six meters in mid-air.
At the same time as narrowing the distance with the white moth, the strange fish that rose in the air was even more belly bulging and pressing, opening its mouth and spraying, a water stream like a high-pressure water gun directly shot the white moth's wings through the hole, countless wing feathers were scattered all over the sky with water, and the white moth lost its ability to fly and fell directly to the river.
Immediately afterwards, I saw several strange fish jump out of the water and eat the moth, and the team cooperated very tacitly.
However, just as one of the strange fish was about to fall into the river, a swishing sound sounded in the air, and a long sharp black shadow shot out from the side of the river, directly passing through the strange fish, and nailing it to a big tree on the opposite bank with its body.
Seeing this scene, Chen Jie, who had just shot the javelin, showed a slightly satisfied smile, jumped up with an arrow, and leaped across the river.
And those strange fish that had been waiting for rabbits at the bottom of the river and rounding up white moths were now frightened by the inexplicable death of their kind, and they disappeared without a trace.
After Chen Jue jumped over the river, he walked to the strange fish step by step, looked at the red blood oozing out of its wound, and then lowered his head to smell the smell of the fish, and said with a strange expression: "Freshwater fish, with a faint fishy smell, and the blood component is also hemoglobin, it seems that it is also a carbon-based life form, but it is different from the evolution direction of the earth's fish." ”
"The attack that spat out the high-pressure water cannon from the mouth just now should have strengthened the body structure of spitting water."
"I really miss the time when I was on Earth, if I took a picture and sent it to fishing, the anglers would definitely identify what kind of fish it belonged to." Chen Jue stretched out his hand and pulled out the javelin, and weighed the strange fish that was already dead, weighing about 30 catties. I reached out and touched the fins and body of the fish, and there was a greasy and soft feeling.
"Why don't you try it baked?"
"It's all fish anyway, so you should be able to eat it, right?" Chen Jue felt that the texture of the fish of this strange fish should be very good, after all, it was a regular exercise, and it absorbed the innate essence of this strange planet, and the protein content might be higher than 5A Wagyu.
But not long after the thought arose, another sound like the flapping of wings came from the forest at the other end of the river.
Looking for prestige, I saw a strange snake with a body length of more than three meters flying through the forest!
The strange snake had black-brown markings all over its body, and a pair of flapping flesh wings on its cheeks, like an enlarged version of a king cobra, with a black forked snake letter spitting out of its mouth, obviously smelling the bloody smell of the strange fish in Chen Jie's hand.
Chen Jiechong sensed a hint of threat on the strange snake, and the speed at which the other party flew in was very fast, but when he opened his eyes, he swept a hundred meters away and went straight to Chen Jie's face.
And from the psychic magnetic field emanating from the other party's body, Chen Jue sensed a negative emotion of cold-bloodedness, killing, and predation, and pulled out the Tang knife behind his back and threw the strange fish aside, Chen Jue stared at the strange snake.
The strange snake rolled its eyes, looked at the catch at Chen Jie's feet, and let out a low roar at him.
The other party had obviously never seen such a strange creature as Chen Jie, and he was a little wary of him.
But as the smell of blood grew stronger in the air, the serpent's reason gradually overwhelmed by the urge to prey, and the moment it opened its mouth, a mass of oily liquid splattered out of its fangs.
Chen Jue thought that this liquid was carrying some kind of corrosive venom, and was about to dodge, but he saw that between the teeth of the strange snake, an electric spark similar to that of a gas stove flashed, and the splashed liquid was suddenly ignited and turned into a fire dragon, carrying a rolling heat wave to rush towards him.
"it!"
"Fire-breathing ???" Chen Jue was startled when he saw this, stomped his feet, and his figure slammed backwards ten meters away, avoiding the flames.
Chen Jue didn't use the Tang knife to respond to the enemy stupidly, but pinched his finger, and a golden sword qi burst out, cracking the blazing flames that had not yet dissipated from it, and at the same time, slashing the strange snake that was flying in the air from head to tail.
