Chapter 652 Escape from the Ruins
From the apocalyptic flood to the present day, supernatural abilities have developed and grown stronger.

Liang Yuan is no longer the naive newbie he once was.

He also developed his own understanding of superpowers.

The so-called superpowers are actually the activation of more powerful genes within the body, allowing humans to mimic powerful mutant beasts and thus acquire their abilities.

Whether it's merfolk or any other kind of transformation ability, from a fundamental genetic perspective, they are all essentially mutated beast genes.

However, the genes of these mutated beasts can be controlled and changed under the guidance of human consciousness.

Those who fail to awaken will be controlled by this gene and turn into monsters.

The merfolk hatching from these giant eggs must be real merfolk creatures!
Liang Yuan simply couldn't understand where these merfolk creatures came from.

"Could it be that some mutated fish evolved from mutated beasts that awakened merman genes, and then began to directly reproduce and create the merman race?"

Liang Yuan frowned, then focused his gaze on the stone coffin on the altar.

The stone coffin looked quite ancient, and there must be a reason why it was placed here.

"What's inside this stone coffin? Could it be related to these mermaid eggs?"

Liang Yuan became interested and immediately expanded his mental energy to quickly investigate the stone coffin.

However, as Liang Yuan's spiritual power touched the stone coffin, he suddenly felt a powerful resistance.

This stone coffin was actually able to withstand my mental energy intrusion!

This discovery immediately made Liang Yuan raise an eyebrow.

After thinking for a moment, he immediately swam silently toward the stone coffin.

Before long, he had reached the top of the stone coffin. There was no one around. He reached out and pushed the coffin hard.

hum!
Suddenly, Liang Yuan forcefully pushed open the lid of the stone coffin, which emitted a buzzing and vibrating sound.

Gollum-

Bubbles surged and billowed from inside the stone coffin.

Liang Yuan looked down and his pupils immediately contracted!
But inside the stone coffin was a huge skeleton!

Inside this enormous stone coffin, the skeleton was equally massive, exceeding ten meters in length, and estimated to be twelve or thirteen meters.

The upper body clearly resembles a human skull, but the sternum is completely different from that of humans, with finer bones and many more bones than humans.

What's even more amazing is that its lower body isn't legs, but rather a fish tailbone!
Liang Yuan instantly pictured Ji Xiaoyu's transformed appearance.

"Is that a fish-man?"

Liang Yuan was astonished.

When were the fish-man skeletons inside this stone coffin from?

Stone Age?
Liang Yuan scanned the inside of the coffin and suddenly discovered that there were a large number of runes engraved inside.

However, under the harsh passage of time, the runes inside the coffin have become somewhat dim and corroded.

This scene astonished Liang Yuan even more.

Even stones erode and decay over time, yet these bones have not rotted.
He instinctively reached out to touch the bones of the corpse, wanting to examine their material.

However, at that moment, a terrifying thought suddenly struck.

Liang Yuan was startled.

"Be bold!"

That thought, filled with terrifying fury, was an emotional expression that Liang Yuan could understand.

Without saying a word, Liang Yuan grabbed the skeleton and instantly vanished into the shadows.

However, that terrifying consciousness pierced through the shadows and immediately fixed its gaze on Liang Yuan.

Liang Yuan was startled: "He can see me!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Liang Yuan flashed and disappeared into the Sumeru Space.

Rumble!
But then, a giant mermaid suddenly rushed in from outside the tomb.

The mermaid had a human body and a fish tail, with a full head of white hair.

It turned out to be a mermaid who looked like an old woman!
The old woman rushed into the hall and immediately focused her gaze on the area where Liang Yuan had disappeared.

She rapidly recited strange words, and suddenly the area lit up with streaks of rainbow-colored light.

Immediately afterwards, the shadow completely disappeared.

However, she couldn't find Liang Yuan, and her brows furrowed.

Immediately realizing something, he moved swiftly, approaching the stone coffin at top speed.

She looked down at the stone coffin, and her expression changed drastically!

"what--"

A scream erupted from her mouth, rapidly spreading in all directions!

The commotion immediately attracted many merfolk outside.

The merfolk rushed into the stone hall, shouting something in a high-pitched voice.

The old mermaid woman immediately turned her head and shouted at the merfolk, then pointed outside.

The merfolk showed anger and immediately turned and rushed out.

The old mermaid reached out and took out many supernatural stones, which she then quickly placed inside the stone coffin.

Once the supernatural stones were installed, the entire stone coffin suddenly began to vibrate.

A large amount of dust fell, and the runes inside the stone coffin quickly emitted a bright light, enveloping all directions.

As the stone coffin lit up, the entire altar seemed to come alive as well.

The stones on the exterior of the altar cracked, revealing the metallic patterns inside.

Beams of light burst forth from the cracks, the runes trembled, and the entire ancient tomb shook.

At this moment, Liang Yuan had already teleported to the dungeon.

Without saying a word, he waved his hand and pulled all the people in the dungeon into the Sumeru space.

Then he turned around and was about to teleport away.

Bang!
Liang Yuan moved, about to teleport away from the dungeon.

But they found that the space in front of them was like an impenetrable wall.

The spatial barrier that he should have opened was now completely unshakable!

Liang Yuan looked surprised: "What kind of method is this? Even the spatial barrier has been reinforced?"

Just then, they heard the sound of waves and undercurrents coming from outside.

Without hesitation, Liang Yuan flashed into the shadows and swam rapidly towards the outside of the tomb.

Whoosh whoosh!
As Liang Yuan quickly left, he remained in the shadows, thus avoiding any unrest.

So much so that the pursuing merfolk were completely unaware of Liang Yuan's presence. Before long, Liang Yuan had returned to the museum ruins.

However, at this moment, all the runes inside the museum trembled and shone brightly.

And a barrier had been erected over the ruins!
Liang Yuan walked straight over, revealing his figure, and punched the barrier.

Boom!

The barrier remained completely still!
This commotion immediately alerted the merfolk who were searching everywhere.

A large number of merfolk rushed over quickly.

Upon seeing this, Liang Yuan frowned slightly and immediately activated the [Spirit Turtle Illusion Snake] gene, transforming into a giant white snake.

A scale between his eyebrows emitted a strange light.

Spiritual resonance drives progress.

Resonant frequencies lit up, frantically bombarding the barrier in an attempt to find its frequency.

Before long, Liang Yuan had found the resonant frequency, and the next moment, the barrier in front of him quickly melted open a hole.

Upon seeing this, Liang Yuan swam out of the cave without saying a word!

He swam rapidly, covering a hundred meters in an instant, and had already left the area.

"what--"

A deafening roar came from behind; it was the furious roar of an old woman.

It wasn't an ordinary sound, but some kind of ultra-high frequency sound wave!

It attacked directly into Liang Yuan's mind.

Liang Yuan frowned slightly, and his spiritual power surged out instantly, transforming into a spirit turtle shield that covered his entire body.

Instantly, all ultrasonic and audio attacks were blocked.

The entire spirit turtle shield trembled, clearly indicating that the enemy's ultrasonic attack was extremely powerful.

As Liang Yuan rapidly departed, he moved further and further away from the ruins.

The ultrasound waves finally disappeared.

Liang Yuan turned to look at the ruins.

But above the ruins, a light shone, and a barrier covered the site, concealing the interior.

One after another, mermaid figures rushed out, rapidly chasing after him.

Liang Yuan didn't get entangled with these merfolk and disappeared into the bottom of the lake in an instant.

When it reappeared, it had returned to the surface of the water.

Soaring into the air, Liang Yuan looked down at the snow-covered plain below.

Rumble!
The snowfield trembled, and large amounts of ice shattered.

Then they saw the merfolk smash through the ice and roar angrily in the water.

Some people even took harpoons and hurled them into the air.

Liang Yuan snorted coldly and pressed down sharply with one hand.

Instantly, a massive wave of icy air swept down, covering everything.

A surge of icy power caused the water below to freeze over once more.

Many merfolk were instantly frozen and sealed in ice!

Liang Yuan didn't look at it for long; he flashed away and flew away.

He only stopped after getting completely away from the area.

With a wave of his hand, the Sumeru Space unfolded, and he stepped directly into it.

Inside the Sumeru Space, Zhang Peng, Gu Jianye, and the others were lying on the ground.

Gu Jianye was still unconscious, but the others had all woken up.

When Zhang Peng saw Liang Yuan, he immediately started shouting excitedly.

Their mouths were gagged so they couldn't speak, and their hands and feet were tied.

Liang Yuan stepped forward to help Zhang Peng remove the gag from his mouth and the ropes binding him, asking, "Zhang Peng, what happened? What are you doing there?"

"What's going on with those merfolk?"

Zhang Peng's eyes reddened slightly as he said excitedly, "Mr. Liang, I never thought I would have the chance to see you again!"

"I almost thought I was going to be defeated by those monsters this time."

Liang Yuan asked in surprise, "You're also a merman with superpowers, so why are you talking about those mermen like that?"

Zhang Peng shook his head, excitedly saying, "They are not superhumans, they are not even human, but real merfolk!"

“Mr. Liang, I saw with my own eyes them taking people out of the dungeon, cruelly torturing and even killing them.”

"They don't understand human speech at all; they have their own language."

Liang Yuan's heart stirred slightly; it was indeed much as he had predicted.

Liang Yuan immediately asked, "How much do you know about these merfolk?"

Zhang Peng said, "I don't know much about it. I was just captured by them."

"When we were at the mouth of the dark abyss, we were suddenly sealed off from many of our senses, including sight and hearing. I immediately realized something was wrong and broke the ice to escape underwater."

"Because I lost my sight and hearing, I simply followed the undercurrent and hurriedly escaped."

"Unexpectedly, I was suddenly captured by a group of merfolk. By the time I regained my sight and hearing, I was already in a dungeon."

"By the way, Mr. Liang, those few were also captured by that group of merfolk, and they seem to know more than I do."

Zhang Peng immediately pointed to the people around him.

Liang Yuan looked at the group of people and saw that they were looking at him with extremely excited expressions, as if they wanted to say something, and they were making loud noises.

Liang Yuan found it strange and immediately unpacked the things from their mouths.

One of them exclaimed excitedly, "Mr. Liang! Is it really you? Mr. Liang!"

Another person exclaimed excitedly, "Is this Mr. Liang from Yangshan? Do you remember me? I'm Ye Nan."

Liang Yuan was taken aback, and for a moment he couldn't recall where he had seen these people before.

"You are?"

The young man named Ye Nan said excitedly, "Mr. Liang, we are from Lingyu Island."

Upon hearing this, Liang Yuan also showed a look of surprise.

People of Lingyu Island!
Lingyu Island, which had been missing for a long time, was the island he had sent people to search for for a long time without any news.

I can't believe I ran into him here!
