Chapter 671 Pale Fingers
Chapter 671 Pale Fingers
As the two continued to delve deeper into the relationship...
The surrounding black fog grew thicker and thicker, even becoming as viscous as liquid asphalt.
The nauseating, rotten smell in the air grew increasingly heavy.
Something's not right.
Jiang Yao stopped in her tracks. The golden mark between her eyebrows was slightly hot, a warning from a divine clan secret technique.
She looked at the absolute darkness in front of her, where even the light was swallowed up, and her delicate brows furrowed slightly.
Is the concentration of abyss energy here... too high?
Even the entrance to the abyss shouldn't have this oppressive feeling that stings my soul.
Ji Luoxin also stopped. Her usually half-closed eyes were now fully open, staring intently into the depths of darkness.
Ji Luoxin's fingertips trembled slightly:
Her intuition told her that something terrifying was ahead.
but……
A hint of arrogance flashed in her eyes.
She's just here to trigger a hidden quest.
Take a quick look and leave.
Along the way, these evil gods and demons couldn't harm her in the slightest!
Even if there is something, with her Dragon God Dharma Form and Void Dragon Evolution Technique, she will definitely be able to escape!
Ji Luoxin glanced at Jiang Yao sideways, a mocking smile curving her lips.
"Since the young master of the Jiang family values his life so much, then I'll take my leave!"
Before she finished speaking, Ji Luoxin's purple-gold light surged, and she became like an aurora that pierced through the darkness, instantly overtaking Jiang Yao and heading straight for the deepest part of the thick, inky black mist.
As they ventured deeper, the surrounding black fog could no longer be called "fog," but rather a heavy liquid substance with strong corrosive and mental-disturbing properties.
Ji Luoxin could clearly feel that her "Void Dragon Evolution Method" was becoming increasingly sluggish under the suppression of these substances.
The cutting range of the spatial rift is constantly shrinking, and its efficiency in devouring life is also greatly reduced.
However, she possessed the "Dragon God's Dharma Image," and her powerful half-dragon body endowed her with almost abnormal dynamic vision and nerve reflexes.
Even in the near-total darkness, she could still rely on her dragon instincts to weave through the gaps between those ferocious monsters, narrowly avoiding one deadly sneak attack after another.
Jiang Yao watched Ji Luoxin's arrogant back, a cold smile flashing in her eyes.
"madness."
"Since you're willing to be this stepping stone, then I'll grant your wish. After you've stumbled and bled your way through, uncovering those unknown dangers, I'll reap the benefits later."
Thinking of this, Jiang Yao was not in a hurry at all; instead, she deliberately slowed down by half a step.
She pushed "Divine Radiance Treasure" to its limit, and the myriad starlight transformed into a giant sphere of light, forcefully pushing aside the surrounding viscous darkness and hanging steadily behind Ji Luoxin.
Ji Luoxin sensed Jiang Yao's presence behind her and turned around to give her a contemptuous and disdainful look.
"With this level of skill, you think you can follow me, Ji Luoxin?"
She let out a clear, delicate shout, her body suddenly sinking, and then, like a sharp arrow, she plunged completely into that absolute darkness that could devour even the soul.
……
Meanwhile, in other areas of Zone C.
"Damn it, something's fishy about this fog!"
A tall, muscular man frowned.
He is Sun Mingyao, the heir of the Sun family.
At this moment, he was struggling to move forward amidst the demonic tide.
"Something's not right... we can't go any deeper!"
Sun Mingyao is regressing instead of advancing, and he's doing so much faster than when he came!
Meanwhile, in another direction, Ying Shilong, the heir of the Ying family, made the same decision!
What exactly happened in Zone C is not worth mentioning compared to being safe!
Ying Shilong took a deep look at the surging demonic tide and, like Sun Mingyao, chose to retreat!
……
Even with their vision obstructed by the fog, Jiang Yao and Ji Luoxin were able to clearly perceive the retreating powerful auras from their side and rear, thanks to their extraordinary spiritual perception and the unique rhythm of their evolutionary magic.
"Heh, who backed out?" Ji Luoxin let out a slightly hoarse, cold laugh amidst the ferocious half-human, half-dragon posture.
The purple-gold light surrounding her opened and closed in the black mist, and with each breath she took, she devoured the free energy in the void.
In her view, those people's retreat only proved the superiority of the "Void Dragon Evolution Method" and the profound foundation of their Ji family.
However, at that moment...
"Thump!"
A heartbeat.
It wasn't their heartbeat.
It is the heartbeat of the entire world, the entire space, and even this planet!
That instant.
The previously raging black mist has come to a standstill.
The monsters that had been roaring and devouring each other frantically suddenly stopped.
Even the dust particles drifting in the air were frozen in mid-air at this moment.
An indescribable, ancient, and infinitely malevolent pressure, like a hand reaching down from a higher dimension, pressed down on this area without warning.
Jiang Yao's body, which was moving at high speed, suddenly stiffened. She felt as if she had crashed into an invisible wall of sighs.
Her prized "Star-Eating Beast Evolution Method," with its dark purple vortex capable of devouring everything, was instantly shrunken back into her body like a frightened quail in the face of this oppressive force, trembling in fear!
"What...what is this?!"
Jiang Yao wanted to scream, but found that her vocal cords seemed to be frozen, and she could only make a "gurgling" sound in her throat.
Where was the trace of arrogance and confidence she had displayed when slaughtering the evil god in her beautiful eyes?
Instead, there was terror with pupils dilated to the extreme!
And in front of her.
Ji Luoxin felt even more distressed.
Her seemingly indestructible void rifts actually shattered one by one the moment that oppressive force descended!
"puff!"
Ji Luoxin spat out a mouthful of blood, and was forced to kneel on one knee by the invisible shockwave. The hard rock beneath her knees shattered instantly.
Her pride in elegance vanished in that moment.
In this suffocating stillness, not only Jiang Yao and Ji Luoxin, but also the other founding family and top family heirs who chose to continue their reckless pursuit of merit deep in Zone C, were like insects sealed in amber, unable to move.
That's not even the scariest part.
The most terrifying thing was that as the black mist in front of them slowly dissipated under that great power, everyone's brains instantly went blank.
That was an eye.
A colossal, purplish-black eye, tens of thousands of meters in diameter and deeply embedded in the flesh and blood of the earth, capable of devouring an entire mountain range!
The giant eye had only cracked open by a very thin slit; there was no pupil in the slit, only an endless, wildly spinning dark purple abyss vortex.
At the center of that vortex, a huge, pale finger was slowly extending outwards.
