System: Infinite Evolution into Qilin Bloodline

The body was exceptionally well-preserved, with smooth, delicate skin, as if it had simply fallen into a deep sleep.

His face was serene and handsome, and his brows revealed an extraordinary and refined air.

Zhang Hao was secretly amazed; he had never seen such a peculiar sight before.

However, he also realized that the corpse was likely the source of the flesh thread.

Those eerie fleshy lines grew out of this corpse.

He guessed that the owner of the corpse must have mastered some kind of secret method during his lifetime, which allowed him to draw nutrients from other creatures after death to keep his body intact.

Zhang Hao's fist struck the seemingly indestructible coffin like thunder. At that moment, the air seemed to freeze, and time seemed to stand still.

With a loud "boom," the transparent outer shell of the coffin shattered into pieces, which scattered and bounced on the dim forest floor, making a crisp and eerie sound.

Immediately afterwards, an intense, almost suffocating stench of blood wafted over, a smell emanating from deep within the coffin, a mixture of antiquity and decay.

At the same time, the bright red liquid surged out like a long-suppressed flood, carrying an irresistible force and instantly covering the surrounding land.

This red liquid is the source of those strange fleshy lines; it contains unknown and powerful energy, which is being released at an astonishing rate.

As the red liquid flowed, the fleshy lines that had been raging in the air seemed to have encountered their natural enemy. They began to twist and contract violently, as if they were experiencing unprecedented fear and despair.

These once formidable organisms, under the corrosive influence of the red liquid, quickly lost their former vitality and resilience, becoming extremely fragile.

Finally, amidst a series of subtle crackling sounds, they turned to ashes and vanished without a trace.

Zhang Hao witnessed all of this, and a feeling of indescribable shock and relief welled up in his heart.

He crouched down and carefully touched the still-warm red liquid, feeling the complex power it contained.

This is not merely a material existence, but an ancient and mysterious force, perhaps closely connected to the past of this land and the secrets that lie dormant underground.

Wu Tianzhen and Zhang Qilin also came over, their eyes wide with disbelief as they stared at the scene before them.

They had never seen such a bizarre and spectacular scene, and could not imagine that these seemingly delicate fleshy lines could originate from such a coffin and such a pool of red liquid.

"This...what the hell is this?"

Wu Tianzhen asked in a trembling voice.

Zhang Hao shook his head, his brows furrowed.

"I don't know either, but judging from the reaction of these fleshy lines, the red liquid clearly has a deadly restraining effect on them."

He paused for a moment, then continued...

"Moreover, I always felt that there was a huge secret hidden behind this, a secret that was closely connected with this dense forest and this coffin."

To gain a deeper understanding of everything, Zhang Hao decided to conduct a detailed investigation of the site.

He carefully collected some samples of the red liquid, intending to take them back for research.

At the same time, he began to carefully examine the coffin fragments and other items scattered on the ground.

He noticed that, in addition to the missing corpse, there were some seemingly ancient ornaments and runes scattered inside the coffin.

These ornaments are exquisitely crafted and feature intricate designs, clearly indicating that they are not ordinary items.

The runes, in particular, were filled with an aura of mystery and the unknown, making people hesitant to touch them.

"Hey, what's that? Why is it shimmering with golden light?"

The fat man had sharp eyes; when the coffin broke, he saw something fall out of it. So he used his flashlight to search for it, and just as the flashlight beam shone under the banyan tree, a golden light flashed by.
