The person turned their head, their face obscured by a disguise suit, making it impossible to see clearly, but Li Zheng knew the other person was definitely sizing him up.
After a mont, the person said, "You're the only one trying to enter the area behind the golden light here. Who else could I be talking about if not you?"
"Thanks for the reminder." Li Zheng thought for a mont, then stood in place and asked, "It's my first ti here, so I'm not very familiar with this place. I see you all sitting here without venturing deeper into the Sin Domain. What are you waiting for?"
"So, you're a rookie." Another person not far away suddenly spoke, mocking, "I don't think this is your first ti here, but rather your first ti in the Sin Domain, right? What? Finally willing to step out of the Outer City's cradle?"
Li Zheng knew that person took him for one of those residents indulging in debauchery in the Outer City. He couldn't be bothered to explain and instead quietly watched the person who had initially reminded him.
Seeing no reaction from him, the mocking individual felt it uninteresting to continue and ceased the hassle, only occasionally casting disdainful glances at Li Zheng.
"Don't take Nato's foul mouth to heart." The person who had reminded him initially expressed an apology for that fellow who mocked Li Zheng, and then explained why everyone was sitting there.
"Those who stay in the Golden Light Zone are waiting for an opportunity. Every so often, twisted creatures from deep within the Sin Domain charge the Golden Light Zone, trying to break through and reach a place closer to the Teleportation Gate."
"But the battle front left by the Celestial Dragon Race beca a solid barrier that's hard for twisted creatures to break through. Simple words can't explain it clearly, just wait patiently, and when you see it with your own eyes, you'll understand."
Having said that, he turned his head and continued watching outside the Golden Light Front, saying no more.
Li Zheng nodded in gratitude, "Thank you."
To be honest, he was quite curious about how the Celestial Dragon Race's barricade would withstand the onslaught of twisted creatures. Could these corpses co back to life to kill enemies?
He mimicked the others, sitting on the ground and quietly watching, facing deeper into the Sin Domain.
Outside, it was silent, with no sound whatsoever.
But Li Zheng could feel that at the unseen end of his vision, there was an aura of danger that even he felt was nacing.
After waiting for about an hour, a ssage suddenly popped up in front of him, a prompt from Lao Pu:
[High energy approaching ahead!]
Li Zheng imdiately perked up, staring intently into the darkness ahead.
Before long, a vast shadow appeared in the darkness, seemingly endless, with muttering voices full of malice emanating from them.
"It's here!" Nato stood up excitedly as if what was coming wasn't twisted creatures, but sothing worth being excited about.
Apart from him, Li Zheng saw others also rising one after another, silently preparing with a posture ready to rush out of the Golden Light Zone at any mont.
"Is this going to be a battle?" Li Zheng tilted his head, if it wasn't for not detecting any evil thoughts, he would have thought these people were beguiled by the Fourth Sin Domain, thus suddenly becoming so enthusiastic.
Rumbling...
The shadows rapidly approached, the sound akin to thunderous roars, noise created by twisted creatures collectively running.
Closer now, Li Zheng could finally see clearly; those shadows were twisted creatures he had never seen before, with bodies emanating eerie purple light, intermittently flashing with blood-red glows.
"Jackpot!" A person next to Nato rejoiced, "It's actually a Purple Magic Crystal-grade twisted beast tide! This is a rare opportunity once in three years; after this battle, my spiritual power can finally advance further, allowing to personally delve into the Sin Domain to hunt twisted creatures in the future!"
The Purple Magic Crystal is a better-twisted magic crystal than the Red Magic Crystal. Whether in terms of the concentration of magic crystal energy or purity, its quality surpasses the Red Magic Crystal by more than tenfold!
Those unable to continue improving with the Red Magic Crystal had to use the Purple Magic Crystal to purify their spiritual power further in order to break through their current bottleneck.
"Sothing's off!" Li Zheng saw several relatively smaller shadows running in front of the twisted creatures, seemingly being chased, fleeing in panic.
"Those don't look like twisted creatures, but... normal people!"
His eyes widened, and in his mind, he said to Lao Pu, "Help investigate those people's identity information!"
[No problem...]
Lao Pu had just sent out three words when suddenly, the twisted creatures sped up, instantly trampling those relatively smaller figures into pulp, leaving nothing behind.
[Corpse... corpse... corpse... pulp... corpse... identity unknown...]
Li Zheng: "..."
Too late.
He frowned slightly, not knowing why, he always felt those figures didn't seem to be fleeing under duress but rather actively luring the twisted creatures toward the Golden Light Front.
At this ti, more than a thousand people had gathered at the edge of the Golden Light Front, dispersed among the bodies of the Celestial Dragons. Everyone was itching for a fight, none noticing a few people had t their end under the feet of the twisted beast tide.
"Are these people gathered here waiting precisely for the twisted beast tide?" Li Zheng felt a tinge of disappointnt.
Just then, the person who initially reminded him shouted loudly, "Sing the war song!"
Sound waves layered upon each other, spreading over a range of a thousand ters around, delivering the sound to everyone's ears.
An oddly lodic tune erged from their mouths; Li Zheng couldn't make out the lyrics' aning, perhaps the song itself had no definitive lyrical significance.
Humming for less than ten seconds, the tune suddenly shifted, becoming extrely uplifting.
At the sa ti, Li Zheng felt a surge of heroic spirit rising in him, blood boiling, every pore in his body opened, yearning for a fierce fight.
