Lord of the Sky City-Chapter 736 - 699: The Truth at the End

Chapter 736: Chapter 699: The Truth at the End

After cutting off a blood vessel on the cliff face, Rocky and his companions were once again attacked by tentacles, and unlike the last time, the tentacles stretching out from the cliff this time were even more terrifying—each one was at least several dozen meters long, easily capable of sweeping across the entire cave.

In such a situation, Rocky only managed to sever the first tentacle before he immediately led Liliya and the other two to speed down further, because it was clear that it wasn’t wise for them to battle the tentacles reaching out from all directions here—they had to continue downward.

At the same time, after so many experiences, especially after cutting off a blood vessel, Rocky and his party already had a speculation about the secret hidden within this cave.

This speculation, although still vague, undoubtedly began to take shape, and was so shocking that, although they all had ideas, no one spoke of them—everyone hoped to confirm their theories after delving even deeper.

The so-called delving deeper naturally meant penetrating further into this bottomless pit, so taking the opportunity to dodge the tentacles, the four of them quickly descended further, and in the blink of an eye, they had flown down another hundred meters.

One had to admit, this bottomless pit was truly too deep—just a rough calculation would reveal that by now, Rocky and his companions had flown down hundreds of meters following the deep pit, at least three hundred or more. This was simply too terrifying, considering that the Dissolving Cave itself was located beneath Red Water Lake, and this deep pit extended hundreds of meters into the earth and appeared to have no end, which inevitably led to wonder where on earth this pit led to—could it really extend to the end of the world?

And as they descended continuously, the scenery around Rocky and his companions kept changing, which seemed puzzling. Weren’t they just flying down along the deep pit—what else could there be besides the cliff walls?

Indeed, there was something else—and it was absolutely dumbfounding.

As they went deeper, the cliff walls around them were completely covered by blood vessels; looking around, the cliff walls were densely packed with blood vessels of varying thicknesses, each one worming as though they were transporting blood.

Moreover, as they delved deeper, the number of tentacles lashing out from the cliff walls decreased, which Rocky considered might be because the blood vessels were becoming more numerous, and if the tentacles were to reemerge, they would inevitably damage many blood vessels, so they gradually disappeared.

However, the absence of tentacles did not herald the end of the deep pit. Rocky and his companions continued their flight into the darkness of the deepest region, surrounded by increasingly dense and terrifying blood vessels, and after flying down another hundred meters, they finally saw the end!

The bottom!

When Rocky, who was the fastest, saw there was an exit at the end of the deep pit, he suddenly stopped, then clenched the Scythe in his hand tightly.

As he hovered in front of the exit, the three who were closely following behind him also stopped in succession and then looked toward the exit in front—more precisely, below them.

Looking down at the exit beneath their feet, it was almost the same size as the opening inside the Dissolving Cave, with a diameter of over thirty meters. If there was any difference, it was that outside this exit, there was a faint red light emanating in waves!

From looking down from the opening within the Dissolving Cave, only darkness could be seen, which wasn’t strange, because after Rocky and his companions had personally flown down several hundred meters inside the deep pit, they knew that the pit was indeed bottomless. However, the entrance they saw now was different; it flickered with a red glow, faint it might be, but it at least confirmed one thing—that beneath this exit, there definitely wouldn’t be another pit.

Beneath this exit lay the truth!

“Everyone, prepare yourselves, we need to be extra careful,”

As Rocky uttered these words, he looked at Liliya and the others, who then nodded vigorously. Liliya gripped her Mana Sword tightly, Dusa pulled out her Mana Bow, and as for He Nan, he grabbed his War Hammer. Everyone was ready.

“Let’s go!”

After nodding to the three, Rocky charged ahead towards the exit and instantly rushed through it.

After he burst through the exit, it was as if everything had turned upside down because he had arrived inside another dissolving cave!

This cave was even larger than the one above, but since Rocky descended from the exit above, as he hovered in midair, he found himself at the top of the dissolving cave.

When he looked around, he was immediately struck with a chilling dread. This was no dissolving cave; it was more like the belly of a monster!

As Rocky looked around, he noticed that although this place was roughly the same size as the dissolving cave, the surroundings were not rock, nor was the ground made of earth. All around him, the walls were covered in thick, dense blood vessels that looked extremely harmful. What was even more terrifying was that on the ground of the giant dissolving cave, there were red cocoons, each a few meters in size!

These red cocoons looked like huge forbidden fruits, but in reality, they were massive cocoons, covered with fine blood veins and emitting a faint red glow. The red light they had seen in the deep pit earlier came from these red cocoons.

And if one looked closely at these giant cocoons, through the faint red light they emitted, one could make out the silhouettes inside… Demons!

Without a doubt, these cocoon corrupted beings were Demons!

This scene left Rocky absolutely stunned, even though he had somehow anticipated it.

It had been mentioned before that as they ventured deeper into the pit, the experiences along the way had led Rocky to some speculation, especially after seeing the blood vessels on the cliffs. Rocky had suspected that beneath Red Water Lake amidst this otherworldly realm, there might be a giant creature hiding!

This monster had merged with the deep pit of the earth, which is why they had found blood vessels on the cliffs of the pit. As for the Beetles and Mantis Demons they encountered before, these creatures were very likely… parasites of the giant monster?

This conjecture had already formed in Rocky’s and the others’ minds, but even so, when Rocky saw all this with his own eyes, he was still shocked. More importantly, the reality before him far exceeded his expectations, because he had never imagined that he would see so many cocoons here, nor did he expect that these cocoons would be incubating Demons!

When he finally calmed down and looked towards the floor of the dissolving cave, again he felt an uncontrollable chill because there were, on the ground of the dissolving cave, as many as tens of thousands of cocoons!
