Chapter 1472: Mountain of Flesh, Forest of Bones
“What is that?” Suddenly, Danxia Zi spoke up in a grave voice.
As if on cue, a dark shadow appeared from somewhere behind the demonic fire. It seemed to be bobbing up and down.
Ye Qing cautiously moved the Ghost Dragon Boat just a little closer to the unusual object. It was only then they discovered that the shadow—or rather, shadows—were many thick, long, flesh-and-blood creatures that resembled snakes or dragons.
The creatures were dark-colored through and through. Some of them were floating independently away, some of them were tangled up like hair, and some were compressed into a ball of sheer mass.
The one thing all the flesh-and-blood creatures shared was their humongous size, their rotten and decayed state, and endless green hair. From a distance, the green hair looked like an endless forest that was spreading everywhere and floating up and down like seaweed.
“Is it just me... or does it look a little like blood vessels?” Old Man Profound Firmament suddenly spoke up.
“Now that you mentioned it...”
The more they looked, the more they agreed with Old Man Profound Firmament’s deduction. The creatures did look like the blood vessels of an animal or a human. “But if they really are blood vessels... then how are they so big?”
Each creature was kilometers wide and incalculably long. They also counted tens, even hundreds of these creatures. What kind of human or animal would possess such humongous blood vessels? And how big were they if their blood vessels alone were this big?
It would have to be at the same level as the Sunchasing Dragon Whale at least.
“Should we head over and check it out?” After observing for a moment and perceiving no danger from the “blood vessels”, Ye Qing moved the Ghost Dragon Boat toward them.
“Phew... they’re seriously huge!” The closer they got to the “blood vessels”, the bigger and thicker they seemed. They felt practically miniscule compared to them. This was doubly true as even the green hair growing out of the “blood vessels” were as big as sky-holding trees from their perspective.
