2806: Chapter 2826: I haven’t told anyone about this!
“My friend flew upward, and although he had just taken off, in the blink of an eye, I could no longer see him!”
The man’s voice tightened a bit, as if he had returned to that fearful ti, back into that suffocating fog.
“Just like that, in an instant, he vanished right before my eyes, silent and traceless!”
At that ti, I was so frightened, I dared not stay there alone.
Just as I was about to fly upward as well, the fog in midair was suddenly shaken violently and then returned to calm.”
At that ti, I was so scared that I lay down under a tree root, not daring to move.
Then, sothing fell from the sky.
Upon closer inspection, it was the upper half of my friend’s body.”
Lin Chen and Gong Jianying were captivated by his story.
Murder is all too common in adventure tales, whether it’s by Demonic Beasts or other Cultivators, but never with such an eerie process.
The man’s voice was thick with horror, “My friend’s half-torso fell not far in front of , the wound was all bloodied and jagged, not like it was cleaved by a sharp blade.
His face was full of terror, as if he had seen sothing profoundly horrifying before death.”
At that ti, I was chilled to the bone, subconsciously activating a talisman I had purchased for a high price.
This talisman could shield a person’s vital signs for a short period, allowing to evade detection by others’ Divine Sense.”
“I hid beneath that giant tree’s root, then I heard the sound of sothing heavy falling, and the heavy breathing sounds.
That noise seed right next to my ear, making my hair stand on end.”
“It seed that the huge creature had co for my friend’s fallen half-corpse.
I heard the sound of chewing, and then the creature began to move away.
I couldn’t help myself; I secretly looked up through the gap in the tree roots.”
Gong Jianying asked anxiously, “What was it, could it be a Leap Void Beast?”
The man nodded, “I only saw its silhouette, but it looked very much like the shadow image of your spell, especially the two wings on its back and the tail it dragged behind, which I distinctly rember.”
“I subconsciously thought we had intruded into so powerful Demon Beast’s territory.
Perhaps these fogs were its ability.
I dared not move, just waiting there, hoping it would leave, but then sothing even more mysterious happened.”
Lin Chen’s eyes also widened.
He had originally thought it was rely a case of the Leap Void Beast devouring a person, but now it seed otherwise?
“Suddenly, two n in black robes and hoods appeared in midair, not far above .
I was terrified at the ti, fearing they would discover .”
“The two of them stood in midair, spoke a few words, and then disappeared as well.
The Leap Void Beast saw them but had no reaction, as if they were together.”
Lin Chen furrowed his brows, “What did they say?”
The man’s voice was somber as he recalled, “One man said, ‘An unlucky ghost has intruded, but he’s already dead; today, at least, we can save on his feed.’ The other man answered, ‘Check again, we cannot afford carelessness.
It’s a critical ti, and if anything goes wrong, we all die.’ The first man replied, ‘This place has always been remote; we’ve laid down the World of Mist.
As long as anyone intrudes, we will definitely know, no need to worry.’ The second one then said, ‘Anyway, it concerns our major undertaking, we absolutely cannot afford a mistake,’ and then the two n left together.”
A major undertaking?
A critical ti?
The World of Mist?
A mistake affecting their lives?
Lin Chen caught a series of keywords in an instant, puzzled in his mind.
The Red River Mountains were originally barren; what major undertaking were the Human Clan pursuing there, especially one so secretive?
What were they up to?
These people were actually together with the Leap Void Beast, or perhaps the Leap Void Beast was their creature?
That was indeed odd.
Lin Chen inquired further, “What happened after that?”
The man answered, “Hearing them say they could sense soone’s entry made very afraid.
After they left, I didn’t dare to fly, so I just kept close to the ground, blindly crawling by mory…”
“At that ti, I thought I was surely dood.
Who knew that sothing had changed midway?
The previously drifting fog suddenly surged violently.
There were also human curses heard in the distance, and then the encompassing World of Mist seed to crack.
I followed the direction of the crack to escape and actually managed to get out.”
“After escaping, I ran without looking back, finally leaving the Red River Mountains completely.
That was when I confird I had regained my life.
I didn’t dare tell anyone about this incident, fearing it would bring deadly trouble upon .
I always feel those people are not simple, probably with a significant background…”
