The roars and sounds of fighting seemed to have disappeared.
Canghai City... Canghai Pass was shrouded in a red glow, and the girl's voice echoed in everyone's ears.
The black raindrops falling from the sky have already turned many people into Eerie Monsters.
Even the dead corpses twitched, eventually blooming into an extremely horrifying fleshy flower.
An eerie silence... the murmurs echoed.
No one knows what happened.
Even the fighting at the pass has slowed down considerably.
The towering red light had not yet dissipated.
Canghai Pass.
Outside the wall.
As Li Chen felt the saturation of the Forbidden Substance within his body, he slightly opened his eyes and looked into the depths of the Black Mist, where countless terrifying Eerie Monsters were charging forward.
They paid no attention to Li Chen, as if they regarded him as one of their own.
Suddenly, the sky flashed with red light.
Li Chen also looked over, "What happened in the city?"
"Could this be the work of Evil Cult?"
Many people at the checkpoint also stopped their attacks, staring blankly at the towering pillar of light in the city.
Many people had been fighting off the Eerie Monsters there for so long that their bodies and minds had become severely polluted. Upon hearing the song, they seemed to lose their minds, their faces contorted with madness as they drew their knives and attacked their companions.
Instantly.
The entire checkpoint was in complete chaos.
Eerie Monsters, humanity has fallen into chaos.
Exclamations and roars rang out continuously.
"Help! Save them!!"
"Someone has been mentally corrupted! Medical team, come quick!"
"Tell the elementalists to stop replenishing energy and go straight to the gate; the combat unit can't hold out!"
People on the border began killing each other indiscriminately, blurring the lines between friend and foe.
Li Chen frowned, hovering in the air. "Singing?"
Why didn't I hear that?
He closed his eyes, shutting out all the chaotic sounds around him, trying to listen to the singing that was causing the confusion.
Whew~ Whew~ Whew~
A breath seemed to be echoing close to his ear.
Li Chen opened his eyes, somewhat puzzled.
Where did the singing come from? Why did he only hear exhalations?
Suddenly, an enormous writing brush descended from the clouds.
With a "clang".
The writing brush seemed to possess a spirit.
It was hovering in the air, drawing something continuously.
It was gone in a flash, like a fleeting shadow.
Within a few seconds, a word "domain" appeared in the air.
For a moment, time seemed to stand still at the entire checkpoint.
Everyone, Eerie Monsters, was as if they had become figures in a painting, unable to move an inch.
Two more beams of light descended.
Two humans were suspended in the center of the pillar of light.
They seemed to be conversing across time and space, saying, "A painting is still just a painting; let's finish this already."
"I don't want that old man to come and kill me at my home!"
One of them snorted and produced a clock in his hand, moving the hands of the clock by one minute.
The Eerie Monsters frozen in time on the sea below seemed to have been instantly annihilated into ashes.
One of them looked towards the humans fighting the Eerie Monsters creatures of the Wasteland Realm deep within the Black Mist, then stepped into the air and flew away.
The other person slowly disappeared into the pillar of light.
With a "click".
The surroundings were shattered like a mirror, and the two figures seemed to have never been there.
Time continued to flow.
The people at the pass seemed to know nothing.
Even Li Chen had no idea what had just happened.
I only clearly remember a calligraphy brush appearing.
Once he came to his senses, the world became quiet again.
Most of the Eerie Monsters in the sea below have disappeared.
Li Chen frowned. He only knew of Yu Qingnian as someone with such power, but who was it that had acted so stealthily and without anyone noticing?
"Could it be that other powerful beings from the Wasteland Realm arrived just now?"
After all, he knew that Yu Qingnian came, the sky would probably be filled with thunderclouds, and the brush must belong to someone else.
Li Chen shook his head and murmured, "Never mind... what does this have to do with me?"
"It's time to go back to the city."
"We've collected enough of the Forbidden Substances; they need to be digested."
The pressure at the checkpoint was reduced by more than half at this moment.
The chaos caused by that singing continues.
Li Chen glanced at the man from before and sighed.
As expected, he had already died.
Looking River Realm is quite strong to have survived this long.
It's just that fate had other plans.
They are all heroes.
After glancing at it, Li Chen quickly headed into the city.
He originally came here only to collect Forbidden Substances and incidentally help the pass fight against the Eerie Monsters.
During the journey, Li Chen concealed his presence using his abilities and swiftly flew towards Su Zhe and the others in the sky.
After all, Li Chen understood that the Evil Cult's presence here might be aimed at him.
They failed to breach the Ruined Pass last time.
This Eerie Tide attack presents them with their best opportunity to breach the city walls.
That's quite a coincidence, though.
The Ruined Pass was also experiencing Eerie Tide last time when they invaded, and it is doing so again now.
Could Evil Cults manipulate Eerie Tide?
Under the crimson beams of light, the entire street and the city seemed stained with blood, transforming into an Eerie Monsters paradise.
Everywhere you look, there are battles between the strong.
Li Chen even saw Wei Laoda fighting against the Seventh Seat he had met before.
The two are evenly matched.
Looking away, Li Chen frowned and stared at the red pillar of light.
What exactly happened?
He could sense something emerging from within the red beam of light; it was definitely not human. This information came from the Forbidden Substance within his body.
He naturally noticed the black rain falling from the sky.
This rainwater contains the purest Forbidden Substances; some people mutate simply from contact with it, transforming directly into Eerie Monsters.
This is because ordinary people have no power to resist.
Even those Sequence User can only barely resist, or they can simply cut off the part of their body that is contaminated with the Forbidden Substance.
Li Chen caught a drop of black rain in his hand, and the black rain instantly merged into his body. "It is indeed Forbidden Substance."
"But what kind of strange phenomenon could transform Forbidden Substance into rainwater?"
His figure quickly headed in the direction of Su Zhe.
The Forbidden Substance might not bother him, but if it came into contact with Su Zhe and the others, they would suffer a fate worse than death.
This stuff is a poison, and there's no antidote for it.
Beneath an eerie red beam of light.
The Shiva Box was now fully open.
A black, withered, and emaciated hand slowly emerged from the small box.
It was only for a moment.
Everything around us seemed to be Distortion.
The withered hand twitched slightly, its strength seemingly increasing, and crushed a corner of the Shiva Box.
Not far away, Ninth Seat's face was extremely ugly. "Damn Blood Charm, releasing this monstrous thing."
"Who will stop them?"
"No, we must go and inform First Seat Xi."
They then left quickly, without leaving a trace.
And that hand continued to crush the Shiva Box.
The surrounding houses and plants could no longer withstand this Distortion; they were collapsing and becoming Mutation.
The tumor throbbed on the ground, spewing out red mist.
