## Chapter 2687: The Things Behind The Formation Are Coming Out

The origin shuttle slowed down and flew silently into the forest. The area was full of mountains, and many spirit beasts lived in the forest. Lin Moyu had to be careful.

Lin Moyu activated a formation in the origin shuttle. The power of faith enveloped the shuttle, completely masking its presence. Xiao San’s nose kept twitching as Lin Moyu pointed in a direction. Coincidentally, the direction he pointed in was exactly the same as the one Xiao Wu had indicated.

The origin spiritual vein has the function of suppressing luck. It is normal for an origin spiritual vein to exist in a place with strong luck. However, Xiao San mentioned that this origin spiritual vein felt a bit strange, though he couldn’t pinpoint exactly why.

The high mountains and ancient forests were full of green vitality, but gradually, Lin Moyu frowned. “Strange, how can there be a trace of death in such a vibrant place?” As someone who mastered the Immortal Dao, he was particularly sensitive to death. It was too unusual for death to suddenly appear in a forest full of vitality.

Normally, death energy only accumulates after battles and the death of countless lives. “Could it be that a war broke out there? Many lives died, producing this death energy?”

Full of doubts, the origin shuttle passed through the mountains and finally stopped in front of a canyon. This canyon was not an ordinary one but a mountain that had been split by a sword. However, it was not completely split, and there was no crack on the top of the mountain. It was more like a huge cave than a canyon.

Even after countless years, one could still feel the powerful sword energy emanating from the canyon. Based on the appearance of the canyon, Lin Moyu speculated how the strong man had done it. “The sword should have been inserted into the mountain first and then cut down, so the top of the mountain was not split.”

This is the Origin Continent, not the big world. Not only is the space solid, but everything within it is solid. On the Origin Continent, it is impossible for stars to be destroyed and galaxies to collapse. Even destroying mountains and rivers requires significant effort.

Lin Moyu thought that splitting a mountain was possible, but maintaining the power within it for countless years was something only a Dao Zun could achieve with the power of the Great Dao. Most importantly, there must be an origin spiritual vein here; otherwise, the terrain would have changed over the years and would not be stable at all.

Xiao San whispered, “The origin spiritual vein is in the canyon.” The direction Xiao San pointed to was the same as the place Xiao Wu had indicated. The origin shuttle slowly flew into the canyon, and the light suddenly weakened. Not long after, the light had completely disappeared. In the canyon, there was an invisible force that seemed to absorb the light.

Upon careful observation, Lin Moyu found that this force came from the canyon itself. The material of the canyon was a special substance that could absorb light. The surface of the canyon was not smooth; it looked like a honeycomb with countless small holes. Lin Moyu did not recognize this material, but judging from its ability to absorb light, it should be valuable.

Lin Moyu remained extremely alert. In this unfamiliar environment, anything could happen. Even the Eye of the Dead could not be completely trusted. What if there was a spirit beast that could evade the Eye of the Dead?

Xiao San kept sensing the origin spiritual vein. It was getting closer and closer. The canyon was five hundred kilometers long. The origin shuttle passed through silently without encountering any danger. Finally, it came to the end of the canyon. It was already dark here; all the light had disappeared.

The origin shuttle stopped again. In front of it, in the darkness less than a kilometer away, wisps of death energy were bubbling out like a fountain. Only then did Lin Moyu realize that the canyon itself not only absorbed light but also absorbed this death energy. The death energy that emerged was absorbed by the canyon, so it did not leak out.

This death energy is deadly for living beings. Whether it is a spirit beast or a plant, as long as it touches the death energy, its vitality will quickly disappear. There seemed to be a barrier at the end of the canyon. This barrier greatly reduced the speed of the death energy leakage and allowed the canyon to absorb and digest the death energy in time.

But the spiritual vein that Xiao San mentioned and the place with strong luck that Xiao Wu pointed out were just behind the canyon. Lin Moyu thought that to get there, he must pass through the death energy barrier. No one knows what is behind the death energy barrier.

Suddenly, a swarm of spirit beasts rushed into the canyon. Lin Moyu was shocked and immediately wanted to let the origin shuttle dodge. There was no place to hide in the canyon. Lin Moyu could only control the origin shuttle to fly upwards until it reached the top of the canyon.

After a while, he saw thousands of spirit beasts rushing in like they didn’t care about their lives, crashing into the barrier densely. There were all kinds of spirit beasts—some looked like eagles, some like jackals, and some like rabbits. They ranged from the other shore realm to supreme beings and heavenly beings. They were smashed to pieces on the barrier and died on the spot.

The originally dark screen suddenly lit up, and Lin Moyu was shocked, “Formation!” The barrier at the end of the canyon turned out to be a formation. Not only the barrier but also the two sides of the canyon were arranged with formations. These spirit beasts used their lives to attack the formation, as if they wanted to smash it.

The formation was extremely powerful, and no matter how these spirit beasts attacked, it did not move at all. The spirit beasts died, and their flesh and blood were absorbed by an invisible force. More death energy emerged and was quickly absorbed by the canyon.

Lin Moyu felt it carefully and sensed that after this wave of impact, the formation in the canyon seemed to be weakened by a tiny fraction. This kind of weakening is not felt by ordinary people at all, but Lin Moyu still sensed it.

“These spirit beasts, at the cost of their own lives, are using a slow grinding method to try to break through the formation. After they die, their blood and flesh power is absorbed by the existence behind the formation. Then more death energy erupts, as if something is about to come out but is blocked by the formation. The death energy is absorbed by the special material of the canyon. What is hidden behind the formation?”

After watching the whole process, he also had his own guesses. The person who split the mountain set up this formation to prevent the things behind the formation from coming out. As all the spirit beasts were killed, the formation gradually dimmed, and darkness enveloped the canyon again.

Lin Moyu suddenly saw a protruding stone in a corner in front of the formation. The whole canyon was very flat without any rocks, and this protruding stone looked very abrupt. He also saw that there seemed to be words engraved on the stone. He put away the origin shuttle and descended.

“Death Qi!” Without the protection of the origin shuttle, Lin Moyu immediately felt the death energy in the canyon. The closer he was to the formation, the thicker the death energy. This death energy continued to spread outward until it was all absorbed by the canyon after a thousand meters.

However, the mere death energy was nothing to Lin Moyu. The vitality in his body was running, and the majestic vitality directly melted the death energy without being affected at all. He came to the protruding stone, which was about two meters high and half of it was broken. There were words engraved on the stone, and Lin Moyu ejected a ball of immortal flame, illuminating the surroundings.
