Lin Yan immediately changed the flames. The Spirit-Snatching Demonic Flame and the Shattering Star Poison Flame were effective, but they were not strong. Then… the Sun Shining Heart Flame!
Whoosh!
Almost instantly, the indigo-colored Sun Shining Heart Flame spread to the Dark Shadow Skin’s entire body. There was almost no room for struggle as the Dark Shadow Skin turned into ashes and dissipated, leaving only a dark palm-sized thin skin that seemed to have no thickness in Lin Yan’s palm.
“What kind of flame is this!” Old Qin exclaimed. He was so frightened that he hurriedly shrunk his neck. He also felt a terrifying threat from this flame.
“Alright, this Dark Shadow Skin should be a creature similar to ghosts and spirit bodies. It’s countered by the Sun Shining Heart Flame.
“Eh, this thin skin…”
Lin Yan sensed that the Creation Bodhi was faintly glowing on the Golden Bodhi Scripture.
“This thin skin seems to be able to be absorbed by the Creation Bodhi?”
With a thought, the dark thin skin was sucked into the immortal seed space. It was fixed and sucked empty by the Myriad Treasures Tree.
At this moment, many Dark Shadow Skins had already quickly climbed up the wall.
Lin Yan didn’t have time to see the absorption effect of the Myriad Treasures Tree. As his figure flashed, the Sun Shining Heart Flame immediately spread along the wall and towards the Dark Shadow Skins everywhere.
If someone stood under the rock wall, they would see more than ten shadows that were as black as ink climbing the wall suddenly begin to disappear one by one!
From left to right, one after another, they disappeared in almost a short breath.
In the Black Tortoise Divine Armor’s concealment, Lin Yan waved his hand. After burning the Dark Shadow Skins, he threw the dozen or so thin skins into the immortal seed space.
At this moment, he could tell that on another antler branch of the Myriad Treasure Tree in the immortal seed space, there was an additional slight protrusion. Clearly, it was growing a new treasure fruit.
“I wonder what kind of treasure fruit will be yielded after absorbing the thin skins…”
Returning to his senses, Lin Yan turned to look at the pitch-black human figures approaching shakily.
They seemed to be stunned and did not understand why all their clansmen on the wall had suddenly disappeared.
Lin Yan’s gaze followed them and spread to the shadow behind them. “Let’s try and find out…”
In the Dragon Gate Pavilion, the scarlet flames in Liu Lanqing’s hand burned fiercely as he waited solemnly.
Liu Lanqing was not unfamiliar with the Dark Shadow Skin. Although she had never seen it personally, it was ranked 34th on the Demon List compiled by the Demon Suppression Division. It was an extremely disgusting demon that was not considered dangerous.
In fact, it was not high-level. Otherwise, it would not have been able to leave the Chaotic Fog and invade the human territory in broad daylight.
However, the danger of demons sometimes did not have much to do with the level of demons.
For example, the Dark Shadow Skin was not very intelligent, but it was not easy to kill. It moved silently and could hide in people’s shadows, making it impossible to guard against.
It was only because of her Force Feature, Invasive Fire, that she could injure such a special demon to a certain extent. That was why the group of people was safe and sound. She also saved the few people who had almost been engulfed by the Dark Shadow Skins.
As her vision could only focus on the front and could not determine the back in time, she had to focus all her attention. Once she received a reminder, she had to immediately turn around and attack, guaranteeing to kill the Dark Shadow Skins at a certain distance.
Therefore, she had to focus all her attention and not relax for a moment.
Fine beads of sweat slowly appeared on her forehead. Her gaze never slackened, but as time passed, a trace of doubt still surfaced in her heart.
It was not the first time the Dark Shadow Skin had come back to attack. The first two times, there had been a large group of enemies. They had also been accompanied by the Demon Dwellers that the Dark Shadow Skins had devoured, almost causing her to fail.
However, this time, after such a long time, only two Dark Shadow Skins had rushed here. It was too strange.
Just like that, after waiting for a long time, footsteps suddenly came from the door.
Liu Lanqing was shocked. She was here!
Outside the door, Ling Shuangxue walked in with a large wooden box, her expression still filled with shock.
“Teacher Ling is back!”
Fan Xiaopeng and Ning Xiaohui relaxed and were overjoyed.
Liu Lanqing raised her eyebrows in surprise. “What happened outside? Did you encounter the Dark Shadow Skin?”
A strange look flashed across Ling Shuangxue’s face. She first handed the large wooden box in her hand to the two people who had rushed up before saying, “Something strange happened…”
“Strange?”
Ling Shuangxue’s expression became even stranger. She could only tell them about the strange things she had seen.
“So, you’re saying that more than ten Dark Shadow Skins suddenly disappeared one after another in front of you? And you didn’t encounter any Dark Shadow Skins all the way back?!”
Ling Shuangxue nodded slightly. “I only felt a gentle breeze and the Dark Shadow Skins disappeared.”
Ning Xiaohui’s neck shrank slightly, and her body trembled. “It’s not a ghost’s doing, right?”
The few of them discussed for a while, but they could not say anything.
Liu Lanqing raised her hand to signal for them to stop. “Let’s not talk about this first! Since we’ve got the telegraph machine back, quickly contact them and bring the diving boat over!”
There was no need for Ling Shuangxue to personally operate it. A few teachers from Qianyuan Academy opened the box. If Lin Yan was present, he would definitely be able to tell that this telegraph machine built from various exposed electronic components was quite similar to the one he had taken from Zhang Yangzhou.
Beep, beep, beep, beep…
With a series of electronic beeps, under the strange gazes of Xie Lingyan, Zang Wei, and the others, the teachers of the Qianyuan Academy took out a pen and paper and recorded it bit by bit. Then, he took out a yellowed booklet and compared it. Soon, he looked up happily. “I’ve contacted them. The other party said that they will arrive at the underground dock in four hours!”
Ling Shuangxue and Liu Lanqing heaved a sigh of relief, but there was more worry in their eyes.
The four Mud Fruits were already dead. If they wanted to go to the underground dock, they had to pass through the Chaotic Fog. They wondered if the dead Mud Fruits still had a deterrent effect on the demons in the Chaotic Fog.
“Four hours… Prepare everything in fifteen minutes. We’ll set off immediately!”
“Are they leaving?”
He had long guessed that there must be a reason why Liu Lanqing and the others had yet to leave. Now that they had set off, they were definitely preparing to leave the city for the prefecture capital.
Lin Yan’s wrist shook slightly, and a ball of black ash sprinkled out. He threw more than ten thin skins of Dark Shadow Skins into the Myriad Treasures Tree.
Just now, after cleaning up the Dark Shadow Skins around the Dragon Gate Pavilion, he left behind a group of clones to pay attention to the actions of the people in the Dragon Gate Pavilion. He then moved to the surroundings to hunt the Dark Shadow Skins.
Along the way, he also bumped into Ling Shuangxue, who was carrying a large box. Relying on the concealment of the Black Tortoise the Swimming Mountains and Seas, he did not avoid her.
It also allowed the new treasure fruit on the Myriad Treasures Tree to have a basic shape.
Unfortunately, there were almost no survivors in the surrounding districts. The only two he saved were already on the verge of death after he killed the Dark Shadow Skins.
It could be seen that there were probably not many people left alive in the entire Ding’an City. There were only the few in Dragon Gate Pavilion…
Now that his clones had sensed that the group in Dragon Gate Pavilion had already moved, Lin Yan didn’t waste any more time and quickly sneaked back.
Soon, Liu Lanqing and Ling Shuangxue took the lead and led a group of people towards the south of the city.
Due to the large number of people and the fact that everyone had to be on guard against the sudden appearance of the Dark Shadow Skins, their movement speed was much slower.
Lin Yan relied on the concealment of the Black Tortoise to silently pass through the crowd, leaving behind his clones.
Then, he walked out in the direction they were heading in.
Along the way, the Dark Shadow Skins were not cleaned up.
Although he had decided to hide, it did not mean that he would not do anything. It was a piece of cake for him to deal with the roadblock that everyone was advancing to. Naturally, he would do it immediately..
