Starry Sky Railway: Twin Origins

Chapter 316 One wave subsides, another rises

"I'll handle it!"

In the instant of falling, Lin Qiong reacted quickly, immediately summoning the Black Abyss White Flower in his hand, and then forcefully throwing it downwards.

boom!

A dull thud resounded.

The black abyss and white flower spear tip accurately pierced the platform below, which was also rapidly falling.

In an instant, emerald green light surged outwards like a tidal wave, and life energy instantly enveloped the entire platform.

Immediately afterwards, after a brief half-second pause—

boom!

The platform surface suddenly cracked open, and a huge plant root broke through the soil, then grew wildly upwards with unstoppable force.

With the appearance of this plant, Lin Qiong and the others' downward momentum was immediately reversed!

Amidst gasps of astonishment, the plant, like a giant hand lifting people up, steadily supported their falling bodies from below, and then climbed upwards at an astonishing speed.

Once the plants had lifted everyone back to their original height, Lin Qiong immediately shouted the command to everyone: "Now! Jump over!"

Without the slightest hesitation.

The moment the words left his mouth, Lin Qiong took advantage of the brief pause that occurred when the plant reached its growth limit and leaped forward.

His goal was clear—

It is at the edge of that platform that has not yet collapsed, and it is also where the road leads away from this place!

The moment Lin Qiong leaped out, the others followed closely behind, jumping up with him almost without hesitation.

Finally, under Lin Qiong's leadership, the group successfully returned to the core area where they had previously fought a fierce battle with the Sky Titan.

"Phew, no serious injury, thankfully nothing bad happened."

Lin Qiong stood at the edge of the platform, and only after his wildly beating heart had calmed down a little did he slowly exhale.

"Is everyone alright?"

He quickly turned around and glanced at his companions behind him to make sure everyone could return safely.

"It's fine, it's just that my heart is beating a little fast."

Xing gently touched her chest, stood up from her half-squatting position, and still had a look of lingering shock on her face.

"I am fine."

Dan Heng nodded to Lin Qiong, indicating that he was alright, and then turned to look at the large hole behind him.

He frowned, a hint of doubt in his eyes, and asked, "But what exactly is that golden liquid down there?"

"I actually wanted to ask that question earlier."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qiong immediately followed Dan Heng's gaze and looked down, while simultaneously raising his hand and gently beckoning.

In an instant, the black abyss white flower, still stuck on the falling platform, transformed into a stream of light and flew back into his hand.

After retrieving the Black Abyss White Flower, he paused, organized his thoughts, and then continued, "When I first saw the light, I thought it was lava."

He had barely finished speaking when Feng Jin's voice interrupted.

“What Grey Treasure said isn’t wrong.”

The pink-haired girl had somehow moved closer to the two of them and was leaning down to look down with them: "The golden pool down there is indeed as hot as lava."

"Hmm? Like lava?"

Lin Qiong withdrew his gaze, looked at Feng Jin curiously, and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

"It means exactly what it says."

Feng Jin didn't answer directly, but just smiled slightly, then pointed downwards: "Look, you'll see it with your own eyes soon!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Qiong's gaze was once again drawn to it.

The massive body of the Sky Titan plummeted like a falling rock, creating a massive splash the instant it hit the golden liquid.

Almost simultaneously, the platform covered with giant plants also collapsed.

The moment the platform touched the golden liquid, the plant on it burst into flames, burning like a giant torch in the golden sea.

In just a few seconds, the Sky Titan's body, along with the plant on the platform, was submerged in the golden liquid.

"Oh my god, if we had really fallen in just now, would we still be alive?"

Seeing this, Xing shuddered and quickly pulled her head back, her face filled with lingering fear: "This temperature is obviously much more terrifying than ordinary magma."

"Let's leave the matter of what happened earlier aside for now. Now that we have the fire seed, it's time for us to leave."

As soon as Xing finished speaking, Bai E picked up the conversation and spoke first: "After all, before returning to Ohema, no one can predict what will happen in the next second."

“Bai E is right.” Dan Heng turned his gaze away from the golden pool and nodded in agreement: “This is indeed not a place to stay for long.”

"Then let's leave now!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Qiong no longer hesitated and immediately led the way to turn around and leave.

For some reason, even after witnessing the Titan of the Sky fall into the Golden Pool, the inexplicable unease in his heart still did not dissipate.

On the contrary, this unease intensified, as if some unknown danger was quietly approaching.

Driven by this premonition, Lin Qiong unconsciously quickened his pace, leaving the others far behind.

Seeing this, the others, though somewhat confused, quickly followed Lin Qiong's steps and retreated in the direction they had come from.

But just as Lin Qiong and his group passed through the two gates and arrived at the area where they had last changed the weather,

The once peaceful Sky Fortress suddenly began to shake violently again, as if it were being wantonly kneaded by an invisible giant hand.

Rumble!

Accompanied by deafening roars.

An endless darkness surged in like a tidal wave, instantly swallowing the clear sky.

This sudden turn of events startled Lin Qiong and the others, who all stopped in their tracks, staring wide-eyed at the scene before them in disbelief.

"above!"

Kevin, seemingly sensing something, suddenly let out a low shout and immediately looked up at the transparent dome above.

Hearing the shouts, Lin Qiong and the others quickly looked up and saw a huge, twisted, and ferocious figure come into view.

Immediately afterwards, the figure shot straight through the dome like a diving cannonball, and with unstoppable force, it headed straight for the location where everyone was!
