Chapter 1185: Chapter 1185: Searching for the Source

"The far west? Didn’t something happen there many years ago? Why are these magical beasts surging over now?"

Lin Chen slightly furrowed his brows and said in confusion.

The first time Lin Chen entered the Huangyu Continent, he encountered the anomaly in the far west of the continent. At that time, many magical beasts also emerged, but their numbers were within a controllable range, far from being as exaggerated as now.

"I don’t know either,"

Ge’an said with a helpless smile, shaking his head.

Currently, the Giant Race cannot send anyone, so they have no idea what is happening in the far west of the continent.

He now felt grateful that Lin Chen had used the gemstones from the Greyflame Tribe to fortify the city’s defenses, preventing the current situation from impacting the Greyflame Tribe; otherwise, they would have faced a catastrophic disaster.

The sturdy defenses of the Greyflame Tribe also led other nearby giants to take refuge there. In light of their cooperation in recent years, Ge’an opened the city gates to let those giants in.

After all, many surrounding Giant races have already pledged allegiance to Lin Chen.

Looking at the situation before him, Lin Chen realized that continuing like this was not a solution, as the number of magical beasts coming here was still increasing.

At the moment, these magical beasts had not yet gone berserk, but if their numbers continued to grow, they might target the Greyflame Tribe.

By then, the defenses of the Greyflame Tribe would certainly be broken under the combined assault of the magical beasts.

To solve this problem, Lin Chen would have to figure out the situation in the west of the continent.

This matter could only be investigated personally by Lin Chen.

"Chieftain Ge’an, have someone guard the city gate closely. Don’t open it and don’t provoke these magical beasts; I will go to the far west to investigate the situation."

Lin Chen instructed Ge’an.

Upon hearing this, Ge’an’s face changed drastically. He deeply understood the terror of that Barbaric Wilderness in the west, far from the stability of the east.

Moreover, with magical beasts continuously coming from the west, Lin Chen would be undertaking a perilous journey if he set out in that direction.

Although Lin Chen had various abilities, how could he ensure his safety amidst such a beast horde?

Ge’an was very worried about Lin Chen. If Lin Chen lost his life because of this, the Giant Race would feel guilty for a lifetime.

"Young Master Lin Chen, we need to discuss this matter thoroughly; please don’t be impulsive."

Ge’an advised Lin Chen.

However, Lin Chen waved his hand, indicating that he had already made up his mind, and then glanced at the Sky Howling Demon Wolf beside him. Together, one man and one wolf flew away.

"Young Master Lin Chen, be extremely careful!"

Ge’an still wanted to persuade Lin Chen to stay, but Lin Chen was already enveloped in a purple lightning, disappearing from his place, and appeared a thousand miles away in the next instant.

The Sky Howling Demon Wolf’s heart skipped a beat when it saw this. It actually wanted to heed Ge’an’s advice and stay, but since Lin Chen had already set off, it had no choice but to follow with trepidation.

Very soon, the Sky Howling Demon Wolf caught up with Lin Chen’s figure and immediately transformed into a small wolf, landing on Lin Chen’s shoulder. Its large size would have drawn attention during full flight, inviting unnecessary trouble.

As Lin Chen flew, he used not only the Purple Thunder Shield Technique but also the Wind System Body Technique and the Concealing Form spell.

In doing so, he remained invisible even when flying through the sky, undetectable and unnoticeable by others.

Back in Tan Shui Village near Xindi Water City, after resonating with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, Lin Chen learned to utilize various Great Daos in such a manner.

If he didn’t have this ability, Lin Chen naturally wouldn’t dare venture from the east to the far west, wading through numerous beast hordes; that would be suicidal.

Lin Chen’s speed was extremely fast, already nearing the speed of a medium-grade flying boat in Central State.

This wasn’t Lin Chen’s fastest speed; he could increase it by another level if he flew at full throttle.

However, doing so would greatly deplete Lin Chen’s energy, which was not conducive for long-distance travel.

On the way to the west, whenever his spiritual power was down to about twenty percent, Lin Chen would stop to rest and consume an elixir to restore his spiritual power.

Traveling in this manner, after flying for ten days, Lin Chen finally reached the far western region.

As soon as Lin Chen approached the western region, he immediately sensed a tremendously powerful and terrifying aura, which made his brows furrow deeply.

Lin Chen quickly restrained his aura and switched to using the Abyssal Eye to survey the area.

The overwhelming aura made Lin Chen’s heart palpitate, as if it had the power to destroy the world.

Lin Chen finally understood why the magical beasts from the west were migrating to other regions; under such a powerful aura, few magical beasts could withstand it.

Continuing to fly west, Lin Chen observed even more powerful magical beasts migrating east.

If all these beasts reached the east, the Greyflame Tribe would likely face a catastrophic disaster.

"Boss, this aura is terrifying. Should we continue forward?"

The Sky Howling Demon Wolf asked Lin Chen.

As an ancient exotic beast, even it couldn’t help but feel a chill in the heart when faced with the terrifying aura.

The Sky Howling Demon Wolf was sure that the owner of this powerful aura was something they absolutely couldn’t contend with.

So what could Lin Chen do even if he found the source of this aura?

"Of course, I have to take a look. I can’t make this journey in vain,"

Lin Chen said with a serious expression, a faint smile on his face.

The aura was indeed powerful, giving Lin Chen an intense sense of danger.

But without uncovering the source of this aura, Lin Chen’s heart would remain uneasy, because as long as the Giant Race remained on the Huangyu Continent, Lin Chen had a responsibility to face the source of this powerful aura sooner or later.

Therefore, Lin Chen planned to investigate, and if no solution could be found by then, he would have to consider leading the Giant Race to temporarily abandon the Huangyu Continent.

Although Lin Chen was reluctant to give up on the Huangyu Continent, given its abundant resources that could provide ample supplies for the Jade Cauldron Sect, it remained a possibility.
