Song Wen frowned slightly as he gazed at the mist within the ravine.
The mist not only obscured his vision but also interfered with the probing of his divine sense.
According to the Azure-faced Jade Foxes he had captured earlier, the forbidden ground was shrouded in mist to prevent other demon beasts from spying on it.
"What is this mist? Could it be an array?"
But upon further thought, Song Wen dismissed the notion.
He had yet to encounter any members of the Demon Race who knew array formations.
Song Wen did not dwell on it. He opened his mouth slightly and released the only Gu insect he possessed.
The Shadow Gu landed upon a dead leaf, burrowed into it, and crawled forward. After leaving the thicket, it continued crawling through the green grass.
Before long, it reached the ravine and entered the mist.
Song Wen's divine sense immediately became unable to observe the Gu insect any longer.
He lowered his head and buried himself beneath the dry grass again, concealing his aura as he waited quietly.
Although this was already deep within the Azure-faced Jade Fox Clan's territory, perhaps because it was forbidden ground, no Azure-faced Jade Foxes roamed nearby. Song Wen was therefore not worried about being discovered.
A quarter-hour later.
The Shadow Gu returned, crawling back along the grass all the way to Song Wen.
From the Shadow Gu, Song Wen learned:
The mist could only prevent spying; it could not bar entry.
The Shadow Gu had entered the valley beyond the mist without difficulty. However, two extremely powerful auras within the valley had frightened it from venturing deeper. It had only taken a hurried glance before retreating.
"So the mist truly isn't an array formation, but some kind of object capable of disrupting divine sense."
