Bizarre Thing in the Jar

Though Chen Lin was confident in the strength of his soul, he did not grow careless. He sharpened his senses to their utmost and stayed alert for anything unusual.

He did not extend his Divine Sense too far, either. As soon as he felt it weaken, he stopped and moved to a new position to widen the area he could search.

For a while after that, the three of them wandered through the First Layer.

Half an hour later.

As Chen Lin focused on what his Divine Sense had detected, a feeling of extreme danger suddenly rose in his heart. His expression changed.

His Talent Ability had warned him!

He immediately used a Secret Art to sever the Divine Sense he had extended!

A Black Fine Thread, thin as a strand of hair, slowly appeared in the Void, as though it had lost its target.

Chen Lin relaxed slightly. So the thing did need to cling to Divine Sense to remain invisible. Once he severed his Divine Sense, it could no longer hide itself.

Even so, the encounter left him shaken.

Without the warning from his Talent Ability, he would never have sensed it slipping in. Its ability to conceal itself was truly terrifying.

And he had been on edge the entire time, not daring to relax for an instant.

Chen Lin shot backward, his eyes fixed on the Black Fine Thread as he guarded against any other tricks it might have.

He had thought his Divine Sense was strong enough to detect this Ghostly Creature when it appeared. Now it seemed too much confidence was no good thing.

But he had not acted recklessly. Even if it had followed his Divine Sense into his body, the Thunder God Sword could still have destroyed it. Innate Power was the bane
