Chapter 1372: Holy Land

Get ready to get off!

The alien species' unique hissing sound came from within the huge semi-mechanical serpent; several alien species emerged from the snake heads and arrived at the front of the warehouse, their sharp openings shouting.

At the same time, the entire semi-mechanical giant serpent also slowed down, transmitting violent tremors as if drilling into the ground.

At the serpent's tail, Lin An feigned panic and lifted his head; a flash of unusual color flickered in his eyes.

Since he escaped back into the serpent, his mind has constantly scanned the surroundings, guarding against that fourth-stage alien species chasing after him.

Fortunately, perhaps his concealment worked.

Aside from vaguely sensing that an alien species of overlord-level or higher was flying toward the direction of the volcanic eruption, everything else was normal.

It was obvious that they had not noticed his presence.

There was no better news than this.

With his spirit constantly tense, upon finally reaching the destination, Lin An couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

Following the alien species as they prepared to exit the serpent, at this moment his mind was more focused on this so-called Holy Land.

Based on the simple description of these alien species inside the mechanical giant serpent, he knew this selection site was collectively called the Holy Land. Upon entering, they would face a second selection and then become holy disciples.

A strange title, a troublesome selection.

But for Lin An, he didn't care.

Irrelevant to the second selection, he had already sensed a vast number of third-stage beings waiting here!

"At least... more than six figures of third-stage alien species!"

Amidst the continuous shouting, he disembarked from the serpent, mixed among the alien species; Lin An, walking at the very rear, couldn't help but feel his heart slightly quicken.

Under his unintentionally diffused concealed mental perception, this Holy Land built underground was quickly surveyed by him in a short time.

Located in the slightly central region of the continent, yet it is a place devoid of human habitation.

Surrounded by four active volcanoes, the Holy Land here is no less perilous than standing at the edge of a cliff, constantly facing the danger of being engulfed.

If it were normal circumstances, Lin An asked himself that he would never be able to find this "Forbidden Land"!

This place is fundamentally unsuitable for alien species to survive, and it certainly should not befit a so-called gathering Holy Land!

Queuing up one by one to enter the passage, Lin An raised his head and observed coldly, realizing why this group of alien species dared to gather so many of their kind here, yet feeling no worry at all about the volcanic lava engulfing this place.

"Two fourth-stage alien species..."

"One in front, one behind; both are using rule power to construct protection for the two."

On the rock walls, faintly rotating silver glints were strikingly visible; under the immense pressure exerted on the alien species present, in Lin An's eyes they served as proof of the fourth stage.

"Not reaching overlord-level, but in the initial fourth stage they should still be formidable existences...."

He did not startle the snake.

Relying solely on the True Eye, Lin An quickly analyzed the effects and strength of these rule powers.

Having compared combat with White Fang and other fourth-stage beings, he easily judged the situation here.

"Defensive rule; while maintaining the underground space, it also possesses a certain counterattack capability."

"It looks like an artificial electric net... whether external or internal, as long as there is any disturbance, the rule power covering the entire Holy Land around will be triggered."

Amidst the panic and excitement of the surrounding alien species, Lin An at this moment was like a hidden demon, his mind utterly different from theirs.

After confirming that this place was even "better" than he had estimated, Lin An even felt a bit excited.

Six-figure numbers of third-stage alien species represent six-figure points!

If we count the alien species of all other levels, plus those two fourth-stage beings...

"Kill them all, and I can at least break through to intermediate!"

"Just pour points into it! Whether attributes or rule power, it can greatly boost my strength!"

Mental power extremely concealed, silently tallying numbers like flowing water.

In Lin An's eyes, these were either excited or looking down from above as the alien legion descended; to him they were all walking points!

Especially with four volcanoes surrounding it, this place is practically made for him...

No!

A tomb tailor-made for this group of alien species!

After killing them, he can easily destroy the corpses and erase traces!

Of course, after wiping this place out he will surely be discovered; even detonating the volcanoes would be useless.

A Holy Land guarded by fourth-stage beings, once slaughtered completely, even if the alien species react slowly they will realize that an unknown entity must have infiltrated inside. As for whether they can guess it's him, that depends on Lin An's abilities.

"Holy Land arrived!!"

"Everyone split into two teams!"

"All third-stage beings to one team! Go to the right! All below third-stage go to the left!"

"After passing the screening, you will officially gain the qualification to enter the Holy Land!"

"This is the greatest honor of your lives!!"

At the huge underground entrance, two tall figures, their bodies filled with silver-colored third-stage high-level alien species, stood beneath the massive gate and shouted sternly.

Seeing as those two third-stage high-level alien species finished speaking arrogantly, a large number of alien species troops bearing special markings instantly surrounded the transported alien species.

Mixed among the alien species, Lin An quickly sized up the scene, his brows slightly furrowed.

They are currently positioned outside the gate; this place is a massive underground structure resembling a beehive.

Approximately 1,200 meters underground lies the first-layer giant platform, a plaza spanning thirty kilometers, responsible for gathering the transported alien species.

Beyond the giant gate lies a vertical cylindrical passage.

The passage runs like a blood vessel through the entire Holy Land; each layer is somewhat larger than the one above, until the lowest few layers underground suddenly constrict.

If one could observe the entire Holy Land from another underground direction, it would be clearly seen as a deep-buried rugby‑shaped complex of buildings.

Or rather... under the shroud of rule power.

The dead heart.
