Chapter 1405 - 1405 Secret in the Sea (4)
Thank you readers!
Yun Feng’s heart was also racing. Looking at the scene in front of her eyes, the Endless Ocean was indeed extremely mysterious. There were probably more secrets than she thought!
What appeared in front of Yun Feng’s black eyes wasn’t the ground anymore, but an ancient sea creature that was hiding here and waiting to attack! However, what was left here wasn’t a living creature, but an extremely huge and lifelike skeleton!
“It seems to have died here in such a posture…” Yaoyao watched in fascination with blurry colors in her blue eyes. “It seems to have fallen asleep here and never woke up again.”
The few contracted Magic Beasts were all dumbfounded. This skeleton was huge and lifelike! Even though there was only the skeleton here, it was as if its soul hadn’t dissipated and it could still move after the soul was put into this skeleton! Yun Feng could see the shape of the skeleton clearly from a high place. The skeleton was huge and slender from the beginning to the end. Only half of the skull was left and the original shape couldn’t be seen. Two huge front claws were inserted deep into the soil. The bones next were in the shape of a thin thread. The lower half of the body should have the obvious characteristics of the Sea Clan.
“It didn’t experience much pain when it died,” said Yun Feng softly. She lowered her body and stood in front of the huge half of the skull. She caressed it with her finger and mumbled, “It must’ve been waiting for its death here quietly.”
The few contracted Magic Beasts all glanced at Yun Feng in shock. “Master, how did you know?”
Yun Feng chuckled. “It’s just an inexplicable feeling.” Sensing that Meatball on her shoulder moved, Yun Feng chuckled helplessly. “Meatball, don’t eat this.” Meatball snorted after hearing that. “Nana!”
Little Fire’s voice came out of the Ring of Contract. “It said… it doesn’t care for this skeleton.”
Yun Feng raised her brows. Meatball rolled its little head and jumped forward to the middle of the skeleton, as if it was looking for something. Yun Feng looked carefully. Meatball was looking for the bone-white thing it gnawed just then. Meatball didn’t care about this skeleton, but it cared about this bone-white thing. Yun Feng frowned. The bone-white thing was spread around the skeleton. It should be nourished by something in the skeleton. Perhaps Meatball was eating these things? Those things that looked like blood in the bone-white thing?
“Master, this skeleton looks so huge. It’s still intact after such a long time at the bottom of the sea and its aura hasn’t decreased at all. It can be seen that this is an ancient member of the Sea Clan.” Lan Yi came to Yun Feng’s side and said solemnly. Yaoyao also came to Yun Feng’s side and nodded. “Brother Lan Yi is right. I feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity with this skeleton. It should be because of the ancient power in my body.”
Yun Feng saw that it had lost half of the skull and the suspicion in her mind became deeper. “Maybe there were other life forms around it when it died. This half of the skull obviously wasn’t naturally weathered.” Yun Feng narrowed her black eyes and looked at the unusually neat marks on the skull. Her black eyes glittered. “It seems that something took this half of the skull away.”
“Half of the skull was taken away by force?” Lan Yi frowned. Er Lei also rushed over. Hearing what Yun Feng said, the few contracted Magic Beasts all frowned. Er Lei pondered for a long time before he said, “I’ve heard a bit about the ancient races from Ao Jin. I wonder if the land is different from the sea.”
“Tell me.”
Er Lei glanced at the remaining half of the skull and said, “Ao Jin once said that the abilities of the ancient races wouldn’t disappear after they died. They would still remain inside the bodies. Even though most of them were lost, a lot of them kept circulating inside the bodies and finally gathered in the bones. This way, the bodies would die over time, but the abilities would still be preserved. The next generation of clansmen would benefit from this pile of bones and the abilities of the ancient races wouldn’t be completely lost.”
Er Lei frowned. “The dragons are like this. The ancient races on land are almost the same. The ones in the sea… should be similar.”
“It seems so. Otherwise, why would they take half of the skull? Was it just for decoration?” Yun Feng chuckled softly. Er Lei walked closer to the skeleton and glanced at it. He suddenly burst into laughter. “Hahaha, the guy who took the skull away worked hard for nothing!”
Lan Yi also approached as his blue eyes glittered. “It seems that it’s true… Master, look. This skeleton doesn’t have any luster at all. If it contains ancient energy, it certainly wouldn’t be so rough. The person who took away the half of the skull also noticed this and gave up the idea, or the entire skeleton wouldn’t be so intact.”
Yun Feng approached and took a look. As expected, there were cracks on the skeleton and its surface was extremely rough. “If it’s as Er Lei said, the ancient ability has been preserved. Even though the passage of time can reduce this ability, it can’t completely disappear. There’s nothing in the skeleton… This means that this ability has been transferred to somewhere else.” After saying that, Yun Feng’s eyes brightened! The eyes of the other few contracted Magic Beasts all brightened. Mu Canghai had been silent on the side. After hearing this, a thought flashed through his mind. Meatball!
All eyes were focused on Meatball, which was fighting with a certain bone-white thing again. Meatball didn’t care about their gazes. It was focused on biting this thing off. The ancient energy wasn’t in the skeleton. If it was lost somewhere else, it definitely wouldn’t leave this area. The most likely possibility was the bone-white thing that appeared around the skeleton. It was transparent and had a round surface. There was also the blood-red thread in the middle. The ancient energy was very likely fused in this thing!
“Crack!” Another piece was broken through by Meatball’s sharp teeth. With the success of the first piece, the second piece was much faster. Surprise appeared in Meatball’s big eyes as it swallowed the thing in one bite and chewed in satisfaction. Yun Feng looked at Meatball thoughtfully. Mu Canghai was extremely shocked on the side. “So… Meatball ate… ancient energy?!”
