"Keep moving forward!"
"It's highly likely that Xiao Jiang triggered some kind of eerie phenomenon. If there truly exists a force so quiet that it can kill an Apostle Level being, it wouldn't resort to such sneak attacks!"
Shen Chan forced herself to calm down.
Based on experience, the so-called eerie phenomena can't be comprehended with common sense.
Those trapped can only save themselves; outsiders can rarely interfere, unless their power can crush the eerie force.
Furthermore,
Most eerie phenomena are triggered passively.
If they waste time on a rescue here, it's likely that other companions may trigger it.
Everyone understood this well; they could only grit their teeth and keep moving forward, hoping Xiao Jiang could find a way to survive amidst the eerie phenomena.
Though retreating now might be the best way to cut our losses.
But the target graveyard is right before us, who would want to give up halfway?
It's worth noting,
The eerie phenomena once only threatened ordinary people, but now it's developed to the point where even Apostle Level beings might inadvertently fall into it. The future might be even more dangerous.
"Damn it, this is really frustrating!"
"I'd rather face a Fierce Beast in battle than have anything to do with these things!"
Someone clenched their fists and cursed angrily in their mind.
The feeling of having power but not being able to use it is extremely painful.
Of course,
He wasn't the only one with this thought; it was an issue that troubled the entire Extraordinary Realm.
Because,
When facing Fierce Beasts, Transcendents can always use various methods to gauge the power disparity and see if they can kill it, which is relatively straightforward.
But the eerie phenomena are different.
One moment, an ordinary person can escape, but the next, a Transcendent can be instantly killed by it.
Only by judging through their ability to affect the strongest levels can one assess the danger.
It's much like the hidden chess pieces in military chess; you don't know if the piece ahead is a soldier or a commander, you can only choose whether to engage and test it!
As for how the eerie phenomena are produced, some speculate it's an alternative manifestation of power distorted to the extreme.
For a moment, everyone's hearts felt heavy.
They had only just entered, and already a team member's life was uncertain. What degree will this disaster escalate to? It's simply unimaginable.
Shen Chan's expression was also tense, wanting to say something comforting but unable to find the words.
This wasn't her first time facing an eerie phenomenon that could affect an Apostle Level being; when they were obtaining the three pieces of Ancient Weapons, she had witnessed it once.
It seems...
The eerie phenomena all have some sort of connection with things lost to time.
About a minute passed.
They were already very close to the target location, but they had to pause again.
Because,
They saw towering figures, like mountains, standing on the land ahead!
And their arrival seemed to have disturbed them.
One of the figures slowly stood up, turned its head, revealing a ferocious face.
"It's a Fierce Beast!"
Everyone's faces were filled with alarm.
They had always wondered why they never encountered the King level Fierce Beasts from the Dimensional Passage, and now they realized they had all gathered here!
They crouched low.
It seemed they were performing some kind of ritual.
Roar!
The King level Fierce Beast let out a deep, low roar, its eyes gloomy, brimming with hostility, flapping its wings to soar into the sky. From its right claw burst forth black flames, which it swung forcefully.
Countless dark Energy Beams shot down like steel needles!
"Oh no, speak of the devil!" The Apostle Level being who previously complained about preferring an encounter with Fierce Beasts shivered with coldness along their spine, not expecting it to come true so soon.
That was just talk, the boomerang didn't have to come back so fast!
If they weren't mistaken, there were probably hundreds of King level Fierce Beasts gathered here.
Forget about it.
Besides running, there's no other thought.
Back in the Black Water Marsh, they only managed to hold on with the help of the mysterious Transcendents from the Ninth District and the Supreme Court's Law Enforcement Officers. Now, relying on just themselves, whether in numbers or strength, they'd shatter at the first touch!
However,
They were surprised to see Shen Chan unleash her aura, wielding an Ancient Weapon, drawing a brilliant light.
Intercepting all those dark Energy Beams!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
As soon as the two collided, they instantly created energy annihilation, causing a visibly perceptible tremor in the void!
"Big sister, we must retreat quickly!" Lu Xiaohan's face was filled with urgency.
The others were also at their limit, ready to run at any moment.
At this moment,
Shen Chan spoke rapidly, "Don't panic, these Fierce Beasts seem to be doing something; they aren't fully focused on us. Cover me as I move forward; I want to..."
"Take a look, to see what exactly is happening there!"
Upon hearing this,
Everyone's face turned pale.
Have you gone insane?
Even at this moment, you're still unwilling to give up.
Truthfully, they would rather face the eerie phenomena than engage in combat with these Fierce Beasts.
Facing the eerie phenomena still holds a chance of survival.
But if more Fierce Beasts are awakened, it's certain death!
"Shen Chan, calm down, we can't handle these Fierce Beasts!"
"Yes, while the other Fierce Beasts are not yet awakened, let's quickly escape!"
At this point,
Everyone was intently watching the Fierce Beasts that were gradually awakening, their voices shrill with terror.
"Ten of them!"
"Let's wait till the tenth Fierce Beast awakens, then retreat!" Shen Chan's eyes burned with intensity; only four had awakened so far, and she glimpsed a corner of the Mysterious Tomb.
What exactly happened there?
If they missed this opportunity, it might be incredibly difficult to investigate next time!
Leaving these words behind, she ignored the soaring Fierce Beast and rushed forward.
Seeing this, the King level Fierce Beast became furious, diving down aggressively.
However, it was met with an astonishing strike from Lu Xiaohan.
The sword light flickered, unimaginable in speed!
The Fierce Beast suddenly paused, narrowly avoiding the blade!
Taking advantage of this gap, Shen Chan advanced another thousand meters.
This action drew the attention of the newly awakened Three-headed King-level Fierce Beast, which growled furiously as it charged, seemingly wanting to tear this human to shreds!
"Your opponent is me!"
From behind, several teammates shot forward.
One of them held out their right hand, forming an invisible Energy Whip that extended rapidly, binding a Fierce Beast tightly.
Someone else, bursting with energy and surrounded by blazing flames, delivered a powerful palm strike toward a Fierce Beast.
The palm strike was immensely forceful.
Before it even landed, it shifted through several colors, from yellow to red, finally turning pure white!
The battle erupted instantly.
Without any sign.
Clearly, they were swayed by Shen Chan's words.
After all, joining this Extraordinary Squad, besides achieving success, is to seek a chance for a new haven.
Having undergone one great migration, who wants to wander again?
In an instant,
Shen Chan was overwhelmed with emotion, acknowledging the recklessness of her actions.
But to uncover the secret behind the gathering of these Fierce Beasts, her heart told her that no matter the risk, it was worth it!
Along the way,
More and more Fierce Beasts awakened.
Yet they were held back by the trailing teammates.
Closer,
And even closer.
She held her breath and focused, her gaze seemingly penetrating the thin layers of black mist, resting on an eerie graveyard!
In front of the graveyard,
She saw...
Several Fierce Beasts, with earth from the graves spreading underfoot, engulfing their lower limbs, and their massive bodies seemed drained into withered husks!
