Chapter 657: The Holy Statue Under the Peach Tree

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The peach forest was red, like the blush of a young lady . The place seemed to go on forever, and it was filled with the energy of youth .

When Han Sen walked into the peach tree forest, he was quite surprised . All the peach trees had dragonflies flying around them . The pink flowers on the trees were wide open and rivers of them flowed down to the ground in harmonic beauty .

The scent of the flowers could be smelled from far away, and the sweet fragrance brought a smile to the faces of all who encountered it . It was like the scent of a young lady .

The berserk bone elephant did not care for anything in its way, and it continued to beeline straight for the forest . As it approached the eaves of the tall boughs, however, it slowed down . It didn't blusterously stomp its way through the forest as it had on its way there . It tiptoed gently and lightly around the trees, venturing as quietly as it could, as if to avoid waking up a sleeping beauty .

The berserk bone elephant's red hue started to rescind and go lighter, which surprised Han Sen and Wang Yuhang . Never before had they seen a creature revert back from a berserk-state .

"It looks like the bone elephant didn't truly become berserk . It must be some sort of ability that it possesses," Han Sen said, as he pondered the curious trait .

"I suppose you are correct . Should we enter?" At the edge of the forest, Wang Yuhang looked in, but did not dare take a step forward .

"How about this, Little Uncle? You return to the shelter and wait for us . We will take a look . " Han Sen was worried something might happen if Wang Yuhang accompanied him .

"Sure!" Wang Yuhang quickly agreed . He turned and took off running to Devil's Shelter without looking back . Han Sen thought it odd, as he'd never seen him demonstrate such haste before .

Having thought about it some more, Han Sen understood; earlier, Wang Yuhang appeared before everyone in Devil's Shelter as a glorious savior of the people . Now, he was eager to finish the show .

Han Sen wiped the cold sweat from his forehead . Wang Mengmeng's "Little Uncle" was a legendarily strange man with no equal in the entire world .

"Do you want to go back and wait for me, too?" Han Sen looked at Zero, who didn't say much . She just stepped closer to Han Sen, signifying she was keen to continue .

Han Sen, without saying anything more, walked into the peach forest with Zero by his side . With the silver fox accompanying them, it was unlikely they'd suffer much trouble . If a creature were to encounter them, it would most likely run off .

The blood-red color that tainted the bone elephant's appearance had now entirely faded, with its bones turning to their original grey and white color . It was still walking incredibly slowly, as well, as if it was afraid to damage the trees . Because it was going at this pace, Han Sen and Zero could follow its passage with ease .

The peach forest was massive, and it was impossible for them to be certain of how big it was . They followed the elephant for a whole day and the environment did not change much, as vast streams of flowers continued to drape the sides of the trees and color the forest floor .

The elephant continued to tread softly, as if it was walking through a sacred place and was afraid of making it dirty .

Han Sen constantly looked around, but he only saw trees and flowers for as far as his sight could reach . There didn't seem to be anything inherently special about the peach forest, from what he could tell . They hadn't seen a single other creature on their way, either .

Even with the silver fox by their side, they should have still been able to see some, or notice signs of them having been in the area . The entire time, since they first entered the forest; the elephant was the only creature they had found .

Han Sen activated his gene lock every now and again, using his senses to assess the surroundings and analyze whether or not there were any dangers in the vicinity . Despite his best attempts, there was nothing .

The silver fox could not discover anything, either . Quietly, it continued to lie in Zero's arms .

The moon was in the sky, and under the moonlight, the ocean of peach flowers looked even more beautiful . When a breeze danced between the trees, it rustled the flowers as petals submitted themselves to the pull of the wind . As gorgeous as it was, the entire affair seemed somewhat surreal .

Han Sen and Zero both sat upon Golden Roarer . As she sat graciously between the rain of flowers and petals, Zero's pretty face graced the view as a mesmerizingly beautiful image .

Han Sen could not help but pick up one of the flowers and place it in her hair . Now, she was perfect .

"Now you are even prettier . " Han Sen looked at Zero, who almost seemed to be one with the flowers . He was not sure whether her beauty was accentuated by the flower, or if the beauty of the flowers were accentuated by her presence .

Zero, who had always appeared emotionless, started to look red in the cheeks . This made her even prettier, like some fairy that lived amidst the peach flower trees .

The bone elephant, by this point, had been wandering through the forest for a few days now . Just when Han Sen started to feel lost in the seemingly endless peach forest, he suddenly saw a giant peach tree up ahead . The trunk of the tree was bigger than the rest, leading upwards into the heavens . The flowers that graced and decorated its body spread out at the top like stars in the sky .

The bone elephant seemed to be heading towards that tree .

"What is this strangely big peach tree?" Han Sen observed the peach tree from afar and couldn't believe its size .

He did not sense any danger and neither did the silver fox . All the silver fox did was stare at the peach tree, and all Han Sen could do was wonder what it was thinking about .

Since they were here already, Han Sen wanted to see what the elephant wanted . Han Sen followed the elephant but stayed a safe distance away from it, not daring to get too close .

The giant bone elephant was heading straight for the perplexingly huge peach tree . As it approached, the massive elephant didn't look so big anymore .

The elephant walked beneath the boughs of the tree gently and knelt . Then, it kowtowed before the tree, lowering its head as if it was praying before it .

Han Sen was frozen . He did not believe that a super creature like this, a monstrous elephant no less, would pray in front of a tree . It was unbelievable .

"What is this strange peach tree? Does something more powerful than a super creature even exist? Why would the elephant adore the tree and show so much respect?" Han Sen was puzzled . He watched the bone elephant kowtow before the tree for a very long time .

But what happened next was even more unnerving .

Under the moonlight, the bone elephant sat beside the tree in a human pose . With all the flowers flying around it, it appeared to be meditating .

With the forest lit with the moonlight, and the flowers and petals continuing to skate the breeze, the bone elephant's body started to resemble the flowers from the peach tree . Then, it started glowing .

The grey and white bones now looked like jade crystals, which seem to exude a holy light of some sort .

Even the red eyes of the elephant seemed to fade away, and it didn't seem as if it wanted to kill anything anymore .

The whole bone elephant was like a sacred buddha beneath the peach tree, with a halo of divine light coming from it .

"What is going on here?" The longer Han Sen watched, the more confused he became .
