Though he was a rough man, he could still tell that Bi Fan was quietly at the center of this group, even though Bi Fan had been walking at the very back.
Then Luo Cheng led Bi Fan and the others toward the border pass.
Along the way, Bi Fan saw that the surrounding land was desolate. A layer of gray haze seemed to shroud the sky, pressing down on the spirit. The farther they got from the Ancient Ruins, the more intensely he sensed the evil energy in the air.
This whole world had been tainted by evil energy.
The air was foul, too. All kinds of blood had dried and stiffened across the ground, its pungent stench enough to turn one's stomach.
In such an environment, the human race's strength would be affected, preventing them from fighting at full power. The Evil Race, on the other hand, would be strengthened by the evil energy that tainted the world.
Under these conditions, some Magic Beasts were corrupted by the evil energy. Some died from the corruption, while the rest fused with it and mutated into Evil Beasts. The four Chaos Mo Wolves that Lan Yuxiang and the others had faced earlier were sixth-rank Evil Beasts born from absorbing a trace of evil energy. Their strength was equivalent to that of a Chaos Celestial Venerable. Even human experts of the same rank would find them difficult to defeat—and Chaos Mo Wolves did not act alone, but in packs.
After traveling for about ten minutes, Bi Fan and the others encountered three packs of Chaos Mo Wolves.
The largest pack had fourteen wolves.
There was no need for Bi Fan and the others to step in. Luo Cheng handled them all by himself.
As they continued onward, Bi Fan's brow furrowed.
