The thick fog hung heavily, with arm-thick vines dangling mid-air, vaguely visible but obstructed by the mist, making it hard to see clearly. A very heavy satellite, entangled by many vines, had crashed onto a train. The place was eerily silent, as if death itself had claimed it.
This scene was quite shocking to the eye; that was a satellite, supposed to be in space, running on its designated orbit. How could it have fallen?!
Chu Feng and Zhou Quan felt a chill down their spines, sensing waves of coldness and couldn't help but look up again at the gray sky. What was there?
"Don't tell me these vines are really hanging from the sky!" Zhou Quan's voice was hoarse, his face looking very grim.
This scene was too much for him to accept, he couldn't believe it!
Chu Feng remained silent, walked closer, pushed aside the vines, and looked carefully. After several glances, he confirmed it was indeed a real satellite, no mistake about it.
"What's going on here?" Zhou Quan felt his mind was in chaos.
Chu Feng pondered, not knowing what was happening outside. They should leave this place as soon as possible and couldn't stay any longer.
"Brother, what are you doing?" Zhou Quan snapped out of it when he saw Chu Feng pulling on the vines hanging mid-air with both hands.
"I want to go up to the sky," Chu Feng said.
"Do you still have the heart to joke?!" Zhou Quan, usually always smiling like a kind and benevolent Buddha, now wore a worried expression.
The drastic changes today made him feel anxious.
"I'll go take a look," Chu Feng said, wanting to climb higher to check.
"No, it's too dangerous. This isn't a heavenly path. Do you think you can really climb into the celestial palace?" Zhou Quan opposed, worried about his safety.
"It's fine, I won't go too high, just take a quick look," Chu Feng said. His excellent physique became evident as he quickly climbed six or seven meters up.
At this moment, the mist enveloped him, and visibility below became extremely low.
"Brother, are you okay?" Zhou Quan shouted from below.
"Yes!" Chu Feng replied. He continued climbing upwards, reaching dozens of meters before stopping.
"The vines in the air are thicker, hanging straight down. They don't seem to grow from the sides of the mountains but hang down from the sky," Chu Feng frowned.
It was hard to believe such an earth-shattering event could happen overnight.
Then, he recalled the news he had seen earlier—trees appearing in space and other floating plants, all Earth-native species, lush and verdant, which now gave rise to many thoughts.
Chu Feng slid down the vines, realizing there was no need to venture further.
"Brother, we need to leave quickly. We can't stay here any longer, I find it creepy," Zhou Quan said.
Chu Feng nodded. With the train stalled and communication with the outside world cut off, he felt they should figure things out themselves and leave first.
The continuous occurrences were unsettling, and they couldn't passively wait.
"My God, what am I seeing?!" At this moment, a scream came.
Several physically fit young men also climbed onto the roof of the train, arriving here and immediately spotting the heavy satellite, staring in disbelief.
They looked as if they had seen a ghost, faces frozen.
Soon, the news spread, causing a sensation, accompanied by panic. The mountainous area couldn't remain peaceful, everyone left the carriages, crying mixed with various noises.
"This is bound to cause chaos," Zhou Quan said.
In a state of disorder, incidents were most likely to occur, but who could maintain order now? The attendants and others were already confused, at a loss.
"What happened to that ancient person?" Chu Feng asked.
"How could he be anything else, he died long ago. I went to check, heard he might not be an ancient person, but carried a communicator," Zhou Quan replied.
"Hmm?" Chu Feng was taken aback. He had observed everything about that person—the attire wasn't simply retro, but genuinely had a special ancient charm.
"Why think so much, let's get out of here!" Zhou Quan urged, not wanting to linger.
In fact, others were also taking action, wanting to leave immediately.
Chu Feng weighed the black sword in his hand, only a foot long but incredibly heavy, denser than any metal material he knew. This made him highly suspicious.
"Where's that person's communicator? Let's see who he contacted, it's too strange."
Unfortunately, Chu Feng didn't succeed. There were too many people, chaotic, and the communicator was nowhere to be found.
"Let's go!"
Without delay, they set off quickly.
Groups of people left together, heading towards the nearest town.
Chu Feng and Zhou Quan followed the railway tracks. Zhou Quan was relatively familiar with this route, having traveled it multiple times before. According to him, crossing the mountains would lead to a small city after ten miles.
"Who did this? No wonder the train broke down, this is too much!" On the way, Zhou Quan was furious.
After walking several miles, they saw broken railway tracks, a major safety hazard. Continuing would surely lead to disaster.
"Something's wrong!"
After another two miles, they saw the tracks broken again, this time strangely, not as if dug up, but... there was something hidden.
"You see, something's off!"
Zhou Quan looked closely, face solemn.
The ground seemed stretched, areas expanded, and the tracks snapped, unable to connect.
Both were puzzled. Could the original terrain stretch and expand?
"Should be an earthquake?" Zhou Quan suggested.
But they hadn't felt any tremors earlier, the situation was bizarre, leaving them bewildered.
They proceeded forward, soon hearing the sound of tracks breaking and witnessing the ground stretching and expanding.
Zhou Quan stared dumbfounded, mouth wide open, speechless.
"A monster!" Finally, he screamed.
"Quick, this region is unstable!" Chu Feng said, accelerating.
Though fat, Zhou Quan showed good stamina, breathing heavily while running but not complaining.
"Is there no road?"
Ahead, a large mountain blocked the railway tracks.
Strangely, the tracks seemed pressed under the mountain. Digging revealed buried sections.
Not just Zhou Quan, even Chu Feng was stunned. What was happening? How did a mountain appear here?
"Are you sure there's a town ahead?" Chu Feng asked.
"I'm sure!" Zhou Quan replied, swearing he had never seen this mountain before, seemingly appearing out of nowhere.
"No choice, let's climb over, I don't believe we'll enter an unknown world!" Zhou Quan said.
"No, let's go around, it's not far!" Chu Feng stopped him.
Zhou Quan reluctantly agreed, starting to walk around.
Suddenly, a roar echoed, shaking the forest, clearly a terrifying beast!
"How is this possible, that roar is alarming, but there shouldn't be large beasts here, where did it come from?" Zhou Quan was shocked.
Chu Feng pointed at the mountain, and Zhou Quan instantly gave up on climbing, choosing to walk around.
During this process, they repeatedly heard startling roars and human screams.
"Somebody's climbing the mountain!" Zhou Quan's face paled, relieved they hadn't taken that path.
Finally, they successfully circumvented the mountain, continuing along the railway towards the town.
Simultaneously, they noticed increasing breaks in the railway and the land becoming more expansive.
What should have been a ten-mile journey felt like twenty miles.
Fortunately, they safely reached the small town.
By then, the mist had cleared, but sunlight didn't shine through, obscured.
"There really is a huge creature!" Chu Feng's expression changed. In the sky, numerous thick vines dangled, leaves lush.
It covered the sky, spanning across the horizon.
It didn't seem to grow from the ground but appeared born from the sky, like a myth.
A giant vine covered the area.
When the mist dissipated, people in the town saw this scene, triggering great panic.
"Run, we must leave quickly!" Zhou Quan shouted.
Indeed, many were fleeing, cars started, driving away.
"We need to stop a car, while the roads are still passable, or we'll be stuck here," Chu Feng said.
"Why bother stopping, just take one!" Zhou Quan shouted.
Ultimately, they managed to stop a car, driven by a middle-aged man who took them away from the town.
After the mist cleared, communications resumed, allowing contact with the outside world.
Chu Feng turned it on, eager for news.
"My God, famous mountains like Songshan, Wangwushan, and Luofushan show various anomalies, even rocks exude purple mist."
Zhou Quan exclaimed upon discovering this report, overnight, many significant events occurred outside!
"Eh, someone found a common tree by the roadside bearing silver fruits. After eating one, he... grew silver wings?!" Zhou Quan was stunned after reading.
The world was undergoing upheaval, Chu Feng's direct impression after reading some reports!
