"Lord Shadow, be careful."
Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan stood at a distance, gazing at Huo Yuhao walking towards the gate.
As Huo Yuhao watched the white bone gate draw ever closer, the sense of repulsion from the Deity behind it grew stronger, but even so, it could not stop Huo Yuhao's steps.
Through the simple collision, Huo Yuhao could tell that this Deity was very weak, and there was even another possibility...
However, he needs to go inside to confirm.
We arrived at the gate.
Huo Yuhao took a closer look and, finding nothing unusual, stepped inside with his right foot.
Just as Huo Yuhao was fully inside, a loud noise came from the white bone gate, and the gap that was originally only wide enough for one person to pass through was closed.
Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan, who were outside, rushed over as soon as the door closed, but they were still a step too late.
The gate closed, the purple light emanating from its gaps subsided, and finally the gate shut tightly.
Thump thump thump...
"Lord Shadow, Lord Shadow..."
Tang Ya pounded on the door in front of her with all her might, but she couldn't budge it an inch.
Jiang Nannan frowned slightly and reached out to feel around on the door, searching for a mechanism to open it.
After searching for a long time, she still had no clue. Just as she was about to look around, something strange happened.
Purple light shone again above the gate, enveloping all the skeletons outside like a laser beam.
The corpse of Worshipper Duan, which had originally fallen into the light, inexplicably floated up, and the dim mark on his forehead lit up out of thin air.
The mark carried a pulling force, drawing in and distorting the surrounding air, causing the scattered bones to fly towards Worshipper Duan's body.
These skeletons are of various shapes and sizes, including tiger bones, bear bones, and the remains of many people!
These skeletons showed no signs of rejection; the purple light fused them together and then slowly covered Protector Duan's body, centering on it.
Soon, the bone transformed into a solid white sphere, firmly encasing it.
Then, with another transformation, the sphere turned into eight pure white spider legs that pierced the ground, whipping up a whirlwind and stirring up mud.
The sphere split into two, one large and one small, and they joined together. Eight compound eyes appeared on the smaller sphere, and half of Worshipper Duan's body was revealed at the very top of the smaller sphere, transforming into a giant spider.
"Giggle!"
The chilling sound of bones twisting echoed continuously. The white bone spider twisted its body, its massive form leaping with extraordinary agility, flipping over, its legs clinging to the rock wall, its entire body hanging directly above the tunnel.
Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan drew their longswords, raised them, and watched the sudden change warily. The familiar Deity aura made them realize that another great battle was about to begin.
Worshipper Duan slowly opened his eyes. His pupils were completely pale, devoid of any blackness, and devoid of any humanity. "Roar!" As the white spider above him roared, his eyes were immediately covered by an indescribable dark purple.
The giant spider, nearly ten meters long, raised its abdomen high, then strangely shrank by a size, before shooting a white, sword-like beam straight towards the two of them.
Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan moved lightly, dodging in two directions, one to the left and one to the right.
When the white energy collided with the bone gate, a massive spiderweb exploded and stuck to the entire gate.
"Roar... Roar roar!"
The spider slowly opened its head and began to hiss at the two of them. Strangely, the sound was somewhat unusual.
Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan listened carefully, and unexpectedly, the chaotic roars gradually became clearer, as if someone was actually speaking.
"Leave! Or... die!"
The two murmured the spider's words, their hearts filled with even greater fear, and Soul Ring rose beneath their feet.
Tang Ya shouted at him, "We won't leave until we get the answer!" Eight Spider Spear extended from her back, ready to fight back.
Jiang Nannan straightened her body, her proud curves radiating a surging fighting spirit, "Wherever Lord Shadow is, that's where we'll be!"
The two pointed their swords forward, and the Soul Power Huo Yuhao gave them soared into the sky. With their feet planted firmly on the ground, they flew up and raised their swords to slash down at the white bone spider.
The skeletal spider roared, unleashing countless webs as it lunged at the two men with its powerful legs.
As they collided, invisible ripples of energy spread outwards.
The immense force shook the entire tunnel, causing the stalactites overhead to sway precariously and countless stones to fall, leaving a scene of utter chaos.
Despite the commotion, the town's residents seemed oblivious; the town remained eerily quiet, without a single light on.
The feeling on this cold, snowy plain was so desolate and lonely.
As the door closed, Huo Yuhao glanced back, then ignored it and began to curiously observe his surroundings.
A large amount of green mist filled the surrounding area, obscuring the entire space behind the door, reducing visibility to only about three meters.
There was only about three meters of standing space behind the door, and in front of it was a narrow path, just wide enough for one person to pass through, that stretched into the mist.
Huo Yuhao did not directly embark on this unknown path. Instead, he reached out and slightly clenched his fist, and a wisp of green mist was pulled out of thin air.
The fog disappeared, leaving a patch unchanged, and the surrounding area quickly returned to its original state, filling the gap.
Huo Yuhao took out a piece of refined iron from the storage room and slowly brought the mist closer.
Just about ten centimeters apart, the iron block inexplicably developed green rust.
Huo Yuhao watched the change with some curiosity, then brought the iron block in his hand closer to the strange mist.
The closer the distance, the more obvious the changes in the iron block become.
Originally, it was just a layer of green rust, but then the color began to deepen slowly. Unbeknownst to the naked eye, one end of the iron block began to shrink at a rate imperceptible to the naked eye. If Huo Yuhao hadn't had amazing eyesight, he would have noticed it immediately.
After the mist and the iron block came into complete contact, the iron block, which was originally the size of a palm, was reduced to half its original size. Upon closer inspection, it appeared as if the iron block had been swallowed up by the mist the moment it came into contact with it, disappearing completely without a trace.
Huo Yuhao transformed his Soul Power into a small knife and pierced it into the mist, but he did not find any trace of the iron block. Instead, Huo Yuhao felt the small knife formed by his Soul Power being slowly swallowed by the mist.
It seems that this fog has an extremely strong corrosive ability, or rather, a power that is close to annihilating objects.
Having figured out the effect of this mist, Huo Yuhao suddenly clenched his right hand, and the ball of green mist was crushed and dissipated into the air.
Huo Yuhao mobilized his Soul Power to form a thin film around his body to protect himself, and then took out the remains of the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm stored in his Sea of Consciousness and put them on his body.
After making these preparations, he approached the eerie mist.
It was at this moment that Huo Yuhao became curious about the path shrouded in mist before him.
What material is this path made of that it remains unscathed in this fog?
Huo Yuhao reached out and touched the path. The surface was very smooth Bingbing, like a kind of metal, but not quite. It was a material he had never seen before.
Huo Yuhao drew his longsword, drew it across the ground, and offered his honest opinion, "It should be very valuable..."
