Along the way, Liu Lanqing and the others were naturally careful and did not dare to slack off at all.
However, the further they went, the stranger they felt.
Ning Xiaohui quietly went to Fan Xiaopeng’s side and whispered, “Why isn’t there a single Dark Shadow Skin left?”
Fan Xiaopeng swallowed. “Could it really be as Teacher Ling said? Are there ghosts here?”
The two of them trembled at the same time, causing the expressions of the surrounding people to change slightly.
Ding’an City was silent now, without a trace of human life. It was like a ghost town, so everyone was on edge. Any abnormality would be magnified infinitely.
Suddenly.
“Silence! Look!”
Liu Lanqing frowned and shouted.
Everyone stopped in their tracks and looked ahead. That was Jing’an District. The paths in the district were complicated, and there were many pavilions and shadows.
Everyone looked over and saw that there seemed to be boiling water rolling in the narrow shadows everywhere. Countless black shadows were constantly jumping out.
“So many Dark Shadow Skins! Issuer Liu, let’s retreat first!” Ning Xiaohui was so frightened that her face turned slightly pale.
Liu Lanqing shook her head slightly and raised her chin. “Look carefully!”
Everyone focused their gazes again and were stunned.
The Dark Shadow Skins that kept jumping and moving were clearly fleeing for their lives!
Dark Shadow Skins suddenly disappeared and turned into balls of fine powder that scattered out. A strange power chased after these Dark Shadow Skins and killed them!
“That’s what I saw before!”
Ling Shuangxue’s expression was solemn, and the cold force on her body was hidden. In the Chaotic Fog, strange creatures and demons appeared endlessly. It was not strange for anything to happen.
Ning Xiaohui and Fan Xiaopeng turned to look at Liu Lanqing. “Issuer Liu, we…”
“Wait a moment.” Liu Lanqing’s eyes flickered. “That strange power seems to only be interested in the Dark Shadow Skin. Otherwise, it would have attacked us previously…”
Everyone stopped and established a formation again. While guarding against the Dark Shadow Skins, they also guarded against that strange power.
Ling Shuangxue leaned towards Liu Lanqing and whispered, “Can you tell what it is?”
Liu Lanqing shook his head slowly. “It’s completely invisible to the naked eye, but that thing seems to have a corporeal body… Look, when it passes by the flag, there will be wind and waves flowing, blowing the flag. It’s as if there’s something invisible chasing and killing those shadow demon skins… Are there any species among the demons that can be invisible?”
Ling Shuangxue said in a deep voice, “There are, but they’re only in the records. Moreover, it’s impossible for there to be no movement when they move. Even we can’t sense it… Be careful, there’s Dark Shadow Skin coming!”
It seemed that the invisible strange hunter had caused the Dark Shadow Skins to escape in all directions, but two or three of them were running in their direction.
Just as the flames in Liu Lanqing’s hand rose, the three Dark Shadow Skins suddenly disappeared into thin air in front of her. Then, a few fragments appeared out of thin air again. The process was silent and there was no movement.
Then, the Dark Shadow Skins suddenly disappeared one after another until there were no more Dark Shadow Skins in the shadows of the entire Jing’an District. The entire process was silent, short, and extremely strange.
“I keep feeling that something is deliberately clearing the way for us…”
Liu Lanqing recalled that she had not encountered any Dark Shadow Skin on the way and said uncertainly.
Soon, peace returned to Jing’an District. Everyone looked at Liu Lanqing. “Issuer Liu, are we leaving?”
Liu Lanqing raised her hand. “Let’s go!”
With that, the group continued forward. However, when they passed by the calm and peaceful Jing’an District, they couldn’t help but feel their hair stand on end.
In particular, just now, many demons transformed from the Dark Shadow Skin suddenly exploded and dissipated without any warning, leaving behind pools of thick blood. It was really terrifying to step on them.
Lin Yan leaned in the shadow of a wine shop. Seeing that everyone had finally moved forward, he stood up again and walked forward.
He was not deliberately cleaning up these Dark Shadow Skins in front of everyone.
However, Jing’an District seemed to have become the main camp of the Dark Shadow Skin. There were indeed too many of them. It was just that he could not clean them in time.
Fortunately, Liu Lanqing was indeed swift and decisive. After seeing such a strange scene with her own eyes, she continued forward without changing his expression.
There were not many Dark Shadow Skins left. Lin Yan could completely clear them all the way to the city gate.
Lin Yan first removed the two Mud Fruit clones that were wrapped around his body and placed them in the city gate.
Then, he looked up.
The city gate was naturally open. Beyond the city wall was the Chaotic Fog, separating it from the human world.
Before Liu Lanqing and the others arrived, Lin Yan climbed the city wall and went up the city tower.
The strange scene at the city tower was even more obvious. The Chaotic Fog was extremely accurately separated outside the city wall and was closely connected to the city wall. There was no gap in between.
Lin Yan squatted down and touched the ancient brick under his feet. “Old Qin, do you know why the Chaotic Fog is blocked by the city wall?”
“What’s the big deal? There must be an Ancient God Corpse inside the city wall!”
Lin Yan didn’t expect to receive any answers, and he didn’t expect Old Qin to answer him casually!
“Ancient God Corpse! What’s that?!”
“That’s… Eh? Ancient God Corpse? What’s that?! The corpse of an ancient god? Or a god’s corpse from ancient times?”
Old Qin blurted it out himself, but he couldn’t remember. He actually made guesses..
