Chapter 4698 The Mysterious Springs


    "Do you need my help?"


    the chaotic sky-devouring beast asked, eager to offer his assistance.


    "No, do not worry. These corpses fear thew of reincarnation.


    I know how to subdue them,"


    Austin replied.


    "Okay,"


    the chaotic sky-devouring beast said, nodding.


    A momentter, Austin defeated all the corpses.


    They fell into the sea once more.


    Wisps of ck smoke flew around and fled into the void. They hovered above the sea, making the sky


    darken. Ghost-like cries filled the air, and moans of desperation could be heard from miles around. The


    scene was frightening to behold.


    Austin and hispanions traveled on. Along the way, they encountered more corpses.


    Austin knew that his attainments in thew of reincarnation allowed him to easily defeat these corpses.


    If he did not possess such skills, he would be severely hurt.


    Time passed by.


    In the blink of an eye, several months had passed since Austin and hispanions entered the sea of


    reincarnation.


    On one particr day, something peculiar happened.


    The ancient ship had been sailing forward, intent on getting to its destination.


    Suddenly, Austin and hispanions heard several rumbling sounds.


    They felt the sea beneath them tremble.


    A terrifying burst of energy suddenly erupted from the sea.


    "Look, there seems to be a shadow under the sea. It''sing up to the surface!"


    the chaotic sky-devouring beast suddenly shouted.


    The huge shadow slowly rose from the bottom of the ck sea.


    When it reached the surface, it opened its eyes. They locked in on Austin''s, sending a chill down his


    spine.


    The shadow struck fear into the hearts of those who saw it.


    It stood on the sea surface, staring at the ancient ship with its cold eyes. The wavespped beneath it,


    and the sky seemed to have gotten darker.


    Austin frowned.


    There was no denying that this strange shadow possessed a great power.


    Its gaze alone could tear up the void and destroy everything in it.


    A strong and unparalleled oppressive energy spread out, seeking to fill every corner. The horrifying


    force crushed the space, exerting pressure on everything it touched.


    Orson and Donny almost fell to their knees from the crushing pressure. It was almost too great for them


    to bear.


    Austin waved his hand to unleash strong reincarnation energy. It dashed toward Orson and Donny and


    enveloped them, offering them protection. The reincarnation energy took the pressure off their bodies,


    and it allowed them to stand upright again.


    "Be careful. That guy is very powerful,"


    the chaotic sky-devouring beast warned, looking worried.


    Boom! Boom! Boom!


    Suddenly, continuous explosions erupted.


    The shadow fixed its cold eyes on Austin and hispanions.


    Austin stood at the bow of the boat and looked into the eyes of the shadow, unwilling to back down.


    The shadow remained motionless as well.


    A momentter, a hoarse voice began to speak.


    "Are you the sessor of the reincarnation race?"


    The voice was cold and thick, and it seemed to wrap around Austin and hispanions.


    "Yes, I am,"


    Austin said, nodding.


    "Good."


    The shadow nodded at Austin, sizing him up.


    "Then... Try your best,"


    the shadow murmured. Austin was surprised to hear a hint of relief in the voice.


    "Sir, may I know who you are?"


    Austin asked.


    He suddenly felt that the shadow no longer held any animosity toward him or hispanions.


    "Who am I?


    What am I?


    I don''t even know myself.


    Whoever enters the sea of reincarnation will see who he once was get blown away by the wind. I am


    only a shell of the man I once was,"


    the shadow sighed, its voice quiet and mncholy.


    The shadow then sighed once more.


    Slowly, the shadow sank to the bottom of the sea.


    "Sir! Sir!"


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    Austin shouted.


    He still had many questions to ask.


    However, the shadow no longer paid him any attention.


    It soon disappearedpletely.


    "Fortunately, he is not an enemy,"


    the chaotic sky-devouring beast exhaled in relief.


    Orson and Donny were finally freed from the mysterious shadow''s power. They both breathed out sighs


    of relief.


    They no longer felt the pressure from the mysterious shadow''s power that pushed down on them.


    Austin dazedly stared at the sea. Then, he shook his head. He geared the ship to keep moving forward.


    Boom! Boom! Boom!


    Suddenly, they heard explosionse from up ahead.


    "Damn it! Are we being attacked by corpses again?"


    the chaotic sky-devouring beast eximed angrily.


    "No...


    It''s a spring."


    Austin studied what was happening up ahead. He was confident in his conclusion.


    Soon, the ship arrived at the center of the sea. True to what Austin said, an enormous spring loomed


    before them.


    The spring seemed toe from deep beneath the sea. It emitted a sacred and peaceful light, and it


    exuded a calm, gentle power that made everyone near it feel happy andfortable.


    The closer that they got to the spring, the more radiant it became. It was pure, sacred, bright, and full of


    vitality.


    It was such a contrast to the rolling ck waves of the pitch dark sea.


    It stood out in the middle of the endless sea, like a diamond in the rough.


    Sheer darkness shrouded their surroundings.


    However, the spring was bursting with light.


    "I''ll go inside and take a look,"


    Austin said.


    He rose into the air and stepped off the ancient ship. He began walking toward the spring.


    However, he and hispanions were shocked when a few explosions began to sound off.


    They erupted from the spring.


    A powerful energy burst out of the spring, blocking Austin''s way.


    "Fuck off!"


    However, Austin was taken by surprise when he felt a terrible, mightyw suppress his strength.


    Austin had been weakened, and he could only use half of his strength.


    "How strange!"


    Austin said, frowning.


    Unwilling to yield, Austin forced himself to get into the spring. Inch by inch, he strained to get closer to


    it.


    He was only several steps away when loud explosions rang out again.


    Boom! Boom! Boom!


    All of a sudden, hundreds of corpses rushed out of the ck sea water and faced the ancient ship.


    Each one of them exuded a terrifying aura.


    These hundreds of corpses flew over together, forming a circle around the spring.


    They were guarding the spring!


    "There are too many of them! They are moving towards us quickly!"


    the chaotic sky-devouring beast suddenly shouted.


    Austin looked around and saw that many divine corpses were moving towards the spring.


    "The spring is being protected by so many corpses.


    What exactly are they protecting? What is in the spring?" Co?tent of Dr?м??ovеls.cоm


    Austin asked, smiling bitterly.


    "All right. I give up."


    He decided to forgo his original n.


    As a matter of fact, Austin was not afraid of the corpses.


    He just had a strange feeling about the spring.


    The sea of reincarnation looked so weird.


    Even though Austin was strong, he knew that he still needed to be careful. He didn''t want to force his


    way through.


    Instead of following and attacking Austin, those corpses just circled the spring. They waited silently.


    More time passed by.


    Soon, Austin and hispanions came across another spring, which looked exactly the same as the


    previous one they had encountered.


    Austin had no choice but to stay away from them.


    "Why are the corpses guarding these springs?


    It''s amazing how much power they have.


    I wonder what they''re really guarding,"


    Austin sighed, shaking his head.
