Chapter Eighty-Four: The Shadow
Lin Xuan walked around the city wall to the other side, and a grand battlefield appeared in his field of vision. A battle of disparity in numbers is underway!
It can be seen that there are six humans guarding this city, four of them are old men with white hair, and the other two are also middle-aged people.
Fighting against it are countless nightmarish shadows, similar to the ghosts that Sato once summoned, but even more eerie.
Lin Xuan couldn't see the cultivation of the six people on the battlefield, their strength was not comparable to anyone Lin Xuan had ever met!
In the eternal night, elemental power is extremely rare. Even if the Thunder Emperor comes, I believe it will not be stronger than a few people in the field.
Nightmare monsters come in a variety of forms, like ghosts that have been torn apart and then put back together. It looks weird and scary!
Lin Xuan had tried, and it was difficult for any elemental power to cause damage to them.
But a few people in the field can make a large area of nightmare disperse with every blow. Their attacks no longer rely on elemental power, but on the rules of the world.
Words and actions can lead to changes in the rules.
What level of powerhouse this was, Lin Xuan didn't dare to imagine. Far away, he did not intend to approach the battlefield, but walked in the direction of the city gate.
The six men on the battlefield seemed to be unaware of this.
The gates were not closed, but there was a narrow gap. Lin Xuan turned sideways, just enough to pass.
In the city, the markets are empty, and the doors of every house are closed.
Lin Xuan tried to knock on the door of one of the houses and ask what it was, but the expected knock did not sound.
His hand pierced through the wooden door, and it felt like he was knocking on nothingness.
Lin Xuan was stunned for a while, hallucination?
He seemed to understand something.
In the room, an old lady with a pale face was holding her granddaughter in her arms, and her mouth was constantly muttering, as if she was praying!
Lin Xuan couldn't understand how a person who lived in the city here could cultivate in the face of such a thin elemental power.
He tried to communicate with the old lady, even though he knew that the scene in front of him was a hallucination, but it was too real.
The old lady didn't react as if he didn't exist.
Lin Xuan was desperate, and he began to shuttle through the city. There are not many people in this giant city, most of them are some old people, and children are relatively rare.
Every adult has a sense of powerlessness, despair, numbness, and a touch of hatred in the deepest part of his eyes.
Living in such a city, experiencing war all year round, maybe it's not bad if you're not crazy.
After probably walking around the city, Lin Xuan came to the outside of the city, the battle between the six Terrans and the nightmare monsters was still continuing, but the situation in the field had changed to a certain extent.
Many strange beasts that have never been heard of before have appeared on the battlefield at some point.
They are powerful, but sluggish. It's like an unconscious marionette. They all share a common ability, Devour!
Devour everything, even the rules!
After the appearance of the alien beast, the six Terran powerhouses obviously did not deal with it with the ease they had before. Gradually, people began to get hurt!
Spirits and beasts seem to be endless, killing and reappearing.
This seemed to be an impossible battle, Lin Xuan didn't even know what was fighting against humans, all of this was like a puppet!
Finally, there was some change.
A huge black shadow appeared in the sky in the distance, and the ghost boiled and roared. It's like cheering.
The air seemed to freeze, and an irresistible sense of oppression hit. Lin Xuan felt that it was a little difficult to breathe!
There was also a solemnity on the faces of the people in the audience.
What is that? A question rose in Lin Xuan's heart.
The black shadow wanted to move forward, as if an invisible barrier stopped him, and a black shadow roared in the air.
Lin Xuan was hit hard, and blood flowed from his ears.
He began to wonder if it was really an illusion, or if his soul had broken into another dimension!
The power of the black shadow was unbelievable, and the ghosts in the air turned into wisps of black streamers that converged.
A pitch-black spear appeared in the sky, dark and deep. It seems to be able to devour people's eyes!
The black shadow clenched the spear and threw it violently!
This shot seems to have crossed the space, and there is no way to avoid it!
All six of them tried their best to resist, but in vain. One of them was pierced by a spear and nailed to the city walls!
The other five people are still fighting against the beasts, and some people look back, and there are tears in their eyes!
Perhaps all this is their ultimate fate, and they have already accepted it. From the moment you choose to come to this city, the end is doomed!
Lin Xuan suddenly felt a little sad, a little fateful, and couldn't escape it!
When the spear is shot, it turns into nothingness. The corpse fell powerlessly from the city wall!
The people in the city seemed to be able to sense the battle situation outside, and the wails and cries suddenly rang out, tearing their hearts.
Through the city gate, Lin Xuan faintly saw that someone was kneeling down towards the corpse, his face was full of tears!
In the wound of that corpse, Lin Xuan found a purple intent oozing through his clothes. This shook him, and there was a look of disbelief in his eyes.
Li!
The rumored saintless Li clan is here to confront the inexplicable unknown and conquer!
Clearly, they are guarding the city, and perhaps more importantly, the rear of the city!
Lin Xuan stared at the road he came from and pondered!
He suddenly understood the merits of the Li tribe, and suddenly thought of why the Li tribe has no saints!
The shadows in the distance remained, but they were fading. He seems to have only one blow!
But with this blow, he killed a powerful existence that Lin Xuan couldn't understand!
For some reason, Lin Xuan always felt that the eyes of the black shadow were always on him. That gaze made him so uncomfortable, as if he was out of his body, and he was completely seen through.
The black shadow finally disappeared, an unwilling roar sounded in the air, and the strange beast quietly retreated!
Lin Xuan's eyes blurred for a while, and he regained his clarity again, he was already in the stone room!
Only the blood stains on the ears prove that what just happened happened!
It all seems to be more complicated!
That ancient city, and that dark shadow, all of this seemed to remind him of what a big wave was hidden behind the calm of the gods!
