Raising the "lantern," Shinji summoned it within himself.
Hiss—
Soon, wisps of green smoke began to rise from his body.
"Hmph!"
Shinji gave a soft snort when he saw this.
There was no doubt that the Breeding Overlord had not let him off. It had left a mark on his body. If he had returned directly to the Shinobi World earlier, the Breeding Overlord could very likely have followed the mark all the way there.
Fortunately, he was a Lantern Bearer and could use the "lantern" to purify himself and remove the mark.
As for whether the Breeding Overlord would follow the mark to the Six Rings World, Shinji was not too worried. According to Radiant Light Alice and the others' plan, luring the Breeding Overlord into invading the Six Rings World was already one part of their strategy to eliminate the Overlord.
After repeatedly confirming that all the contamination on his body had been cleared, Shinji finally looked around.
He was not currently inside the Contaminated Zone. Everywhere he looked was lush and green, and smoke from cooking fires rose on the horizon. There seemed to be a small village nearby.
He used the "lantern" once more to sense the level of contamination in the air, then let out a sigh of relief.
Although the Six Rings World had been invaded by the Plague Overlord, widely recognized as the most terrifying Overlord among the Lantern Bearers, the existence of the Lantern Bearers, along with the protection of an Archmage-level powerhouse who was close to Six Paths level, meant that the Six Rings World had not changed much after several months.
"T33 was destroyed ahead of schedule, and the Breeding Overlord could pursue us at any moment. I have to notify Arcane and make sure he prepares in advance!"
