Chapter 161 The Dark Earth
The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled over Li Muyang.
He stood bewildered among the fields, gazing at the tranquil little mountain village before him, subconsciously activating the Eye of Spiritual Sight.
Illusion Technique?
Or what?
Why had he, after entering the ancient grudge well, not encountered the Ancient Evil God or any horror but instead this little mountain village?
However, after the Eye of Spiritual Sight was activated, there was no change in the scene before him.
It was still this tranquil little mountain village, still a seeming paradise with neatly arranged paths and orderly houses.
Li Muyang felt bewildered—had he mistakenly entered a utopia?
What happened to the promised land full of evil spirits?
In Li Muyang's surprise, a figure in green silently appeared behind him.
The Glass Immortal Maiden, Chu Qingxue, with the Glazed Fairy Sword on her back, appeared in Li Muyang's field of vision.
"Lord Nameless?"
The moment they met, Chu Qingxue breathed a sigh of relief, "I thought you had disappeared too."
Chu Qingxue's remark stirred something in Li Muyang, reminding him of the scene in the tunnel just now.
Could it be that the Glass Immortal Maiden, too, found herself alone while walking?
After exchanging notes, they indeed found that their experiences matched.
Both had found themselves alone in the tunnels after the mist appeared, losing track of others.
Fortunately, after exiting the tunnel, Li Muyang and the Glass Immortal Maiden had reunited.
But they had stood in their original spot for a long time and yet saw no sign of the four Demon Suppression Magi from the Heavenly Oversight.
"... Could these four Demon Suppression Magi have seen something wrong and exited directly?"
Li Muyang muttered in surprise.
The Glass Immortal Maiden bit her lip, "That shouldn't be the case. The four first-rate Demon Suppression Magi are fearless and unyielding heroes, they wouldn't retreat."
But despite her words, the Glass Immortal Maiden clearly lacked confidence.
The two waited a bit longer, then Li Muyang said, "Why don't we go into the village to look around, starting with finding General Zhong?"
Li Muyang spread out his palm, where the two blood pupils had now calmed down and stopped moving.
Having brought Li Muyang and his friend to their destination, the two blood pupils lost their power.
Li Muyang tucked away the blood pupils and walked toward the village ahead.
The Glass Immortal Maiden hesitated for a moment, then followed.
"If this place is truly the ancient grudge well, it might be full of evil creatures..."
The two, on guard for possible attacks, quietly approached the little mountain village ahead.
Stepping into the village, they saw roosters crowing and yellow dogs running around, all within a peaceful and tranquil scene.
The villagers who saw them approaching were all incredibly surprised.
Fortunately, apart from being unable to fly, their cultivation powers were not sealed.
Li Muyang tested it and indeed could not use Escaping Light to fly, but his cultivation was still intact.
"Then we shall walk to Red Ridge Mountain," he decided.
According to the distance mentioned by the old village chief, it would not take them long to walk to Red Ridge Mountain.
As the last traces of sunset fell from the horizon in the distance, the land was plunged completely into darkness.
There were no clouds in the night sky, yet they could still see neither stars nor the moon.
There were no stars here; only an endless, pitch-black darkness.
Li Muyang and Glass Immortal Maiden sped through the darkness as fast as they could.
However, a long red bar suddenly appeared within their field of vision.
[Planchette]
This red bar appeared abruptly in the darkness, and before they could react, they collided with it.
[You have died, game over]
"...What?" said Li Muyang, baffled.
Everything went dark in his field of vision, and he was bewildered.
He didn't even see what happened, and he was dead?
But the red bar he saw before dying was indeed the Planchette.
Wasn't that one of the evil entities beneath Black Cloud Fort?
What happened to no evil spirits in this world?
Old village chief, you've tricked me!
Li Muyang loaded his saved data and once more entered into the dark land.
He and Glass Immortal Maiden ran through the darkness, with Li Muyang activating the Startling Swan Sword Technique, letting the Wheel of Law's Extinction release a brilliant blue light that followed them, like running with a massive lamp.
Under the brilliant blue light, the darkness within a radius of ten zhang turned a glowing blue.
This time, Li Muyang could see clearly.
From the void ahead, a sinister shadow silently emerged.
[Planchette].
The freakish head, covered in limbs, crying as it emerged from the darkness.
The moment their six eyes met, Li Muyang fell silent.
It was truly the Planchette... holy shit!
Was this really the world of the Evil God?
It wasn't just a projection seen in the third stage of Black Cloud Fort or the incorporeal form seen in Lijiang County, but the actual Planchette!
The real Ancient Evil God!
In this dark land, the Ancient Evil God was active!
