Chapter 599: Lizardman Relics
The third-level dimensional plane under the jurisdiction of Zhonghai Beast Taming University is located in an unnamed mountain range about 5,000 kilometers west of Wuyun Castle.

In an unnamed valley, Li Qian and his group of nine stood in front of a translucent light shield that looked like an upside-down bowl.

As for the Winged Clan woman Wu You, and Mo Ziyu, for their safety, Li Qian had already put them both into the Beast Taming Space.

With so many big guys around to protect their safety, there is no need for the two of them. If it really comes to their turn, the situation would probably have deteriorated to the point where it cannot be reversed.

At that time, it really didn't matter whether they went up or not.

Li Qian looked at the scene inside the translucent light cover with a little curiosity.

The scene inside the light shield was relatively simple. The most obvious things to see were the four stone pillars in the four directions of southeast, northwest, northeast and southwest.

The stone pillars are carved with complex cloud patterns and exotic animal patterns from top to bottom, making them look very mysterious.

Combined with other scenes, Li Qian guessed that these four stone pillars were probably the remains left after the collapse of a building such as an altar or a stone temple.

Not far away, in other places, you can see some other "remains", including statues of strange beasts with their heads and bodies separated, stone bricks, stone tiles, and several broken walls, which are enough to prove many things.

"I don't know what civilization occupied this place in the past?" Li Qian took a look and asked casually.

Director Liu Tianxiong of the School of Archaeology was immediately interested after hearing what Li Qian said. "Based on the existing remains and some of the ancient characters that have been found, we have made a preliminary judgment."

He looked somewhat proud as he continued, "This relic is most likely a relic from a country called the Lizardman Civilization in the Third Era."

Li Qian cast a grateful look at Director Liu Tianxiong. He was quite interested in these archaeological knowledge, but time was limited and at this stage, he had no energy to study them.

Naturally, he was very interested to hear part of it here.

"This relic is indeed what was left behind by the Lizardman Kingdom in the Third Era."

Dean Yue echoed and immediately began to operate the smart bracelet. As he operated, the translucent light curtain that had been covering the Lizardman ruins actually opened a hole at this moment.

The opening was not big, but it was enough for two people to enter and exit at the same time. It was a bit like a door. Dean Yue looked at the door and continued, "In order to prevent the ancient teleportation array that was repaired with great difficulty from being damaged again, we set up an energy protection shield here and deployed several warning robots."

While Dean Yue was speaking, nine people had already passed through the door and entered the interior of the cover. After entering, Li Qian quickly discovered four combat robots and four combat robot dogs.

They are the entire defensive force of this energy shield. Li Qian can also understand the actions of Zhonghai Beastmaster University.

This place is surrounded by wolves, so it is definitely not suitable to deploy manpower at this stage. As for setting up outposts, it is even more impractical.

However, in the future, if there is no alternative place, this place will definitely be occupied by Zhonghai Beastmaster University and the official forces of Zhonghai City.

After all, a place that can continuously "produce" Holy Spirit-level ice and fire dragons is of immeasurable value.

After entering the ruins, which was the middle of the four stone pillars, the few people did not waste time and immediately took action. With the insertion of the energy stone, under the spiritual communication of Director Liu Tianxiong, the formation began to emit a hazy luster.

Li Qian originally thought that he brought Director Liu Tianxiong along on this trip because this place had some archaeological value. Now it seems that his greater role should be to preside over the formation.

As for the fact that Director Liu Tianxiong knew formations, Li Qian was not surprised at all.

When conducting archaeological research, one will frequently encounter various ancient formations. Therefore, it is normal for archaeologists to be familiar with formations and work as part-time formation masters.

As the luster became brighter and brighter, the surrounding light began to distort. Then, in just a blink of an eye, Li Qian only felt a flash before his eyes, and then the scene in his sight changed drastically.

The nine of them were no longer in the Lizardman ruins, but appeared in a strange space.

This space is bare on all sides, with nothing on it. Only if you look far away can you see a black dot. If you look carefully, you can see that it is the outline of a mountain.

Apart from this, the entire space is just a bare expanse, with the sea and the sky connected, stretching as far as the eye can see.

"This..." Li Qian looked at the endless bright and smooth scene and couldn't help being a little surprised. Inside the dimensional plane, one could really see all kinds of situations.

Qin Xiaoyun explained to him: "We have speculated on the origin of this place. It turns out that it should be an area in the sea."

"Later, for some unknown reason, the sea water froze into ice, and the black mountain should actually be a small island in the sea."

After listening to Qin Xiaoyun's explanation, Li Qian nodded slightly. Judging from the endless ice field, it did seem to be the case.

Qin Xiaoyun saw that Li Qian was quite interested, and it would take some time to get to Black Mountain from here, so she continued, "The reason why I say this is that we sensed abundant water energy under the 100-meter-thick ice layer."

Several people were riding on flying pets, talking as they headed towards Black Mountain. Although it looked not far away, in fact, if they did not ride on flying pets, the distance from the exit of the ancient teleportation array to get there was still quite far.

"We have explored this place thoroughly. There are no traces of any extraordinary creatures. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a dead zone." The flying pets landed one after another. Qin Xiaoyun jumped off the flying pets and took them back to the beast management space. During the process, she never stopped talking.

After stepping on the solid ground, Li Qian stomped gently and found that this black mountain was quite strange. There was no soil on it, only a kind of black rock.

The surface of this rock is not smooth at all, but rough and very hard. Even if you wear shoes, it will still hurt your feet when you walk on it.

"You guys go to the formation site first, we're going to take a walk around first." Li Qian glanced at the surrounding environment and then spoke.

As for not being able to find the place or anything, he was not worried at all.

The entire Black Mountain is very small. If you fly a little higher, you can see the entire mountain.

"That's fine. You can go for a walk first. We also need to do some preparations." Lu Qingzhi and Qin Xiaoyun nodded when they heard this.
