Although he had not specifically enhanced his Perception, and had not yet deliberately invested resources in this area, at this moment, Gu Mo still felt a sense of oppression...

He could clearly feel that this strange sensation was growing stronger, especially within the vision of his Spiritual Vision ability, where the surrounding environment seemed to become increasingly dark.

It seemed as if the night was growing thicker, viscous like ink that wouldn't dissolve, yet at this moment there were no clouds in the sky; the moonlight was as gentle as before, and the light from distant street lamps and buildings never changed in angle or intensity, so logically it shouldn't suddenly turn dark.

This is a change in "feeling," due to the massive concentration of certain things, intangible breaths intertwining, forming a gloomy atmosphere due to their overly diverse and massive nature.

Everyone who enters this area would be affected, "feeling" the surroundings suddenly becoming dark and deep, as if they were in the high-pressure, suffocating depths of the sea.

— Eternal Darkness?

A concept popped into his mind, but Gu Mo immediately dismissed it. It wasn't the Domain of Eternal Darkness; there was a significant difference compared to it.

The city's dark side seemed more than imagined, clearly tidy during the day, but now suddenly bustling, hiding in unknown places. And obviously, what couldn't be seen during the day now suddenly turned welcoming.

Gu Mo softly exhaled, reflecting as he felt the dark aura spreading in the darkness and experienced the calm waves of the Great Fox attached to him, feeling his previously agitated mind settling down.

Despite being somewhat unexpected, after all, he was still a new Player just formally tackling the second dungeon, there was really nothing to fear...

Ahem, alright, it seems talking about something inauspicious isn't suitable before a big battle, so it's better not to set a Flag. Although not a magic boy, withdrawing from a dungeon by losing one's head would indeed be quite embarrassing.

Thinking this, he reached into his pocket and retrieved a folding knife, both guarding and subconsciously glancing back.

Because at that moment, a certain mysterious light radiated from behind, piercing through the dim environment of this remote area. But Gu Mo quickly determined through Spiritual Vision that this was something normal people couldn't see; in other words, only particular people or entities could see this light and effect.

It was in the alley behind, just in the circular area of the "Yellow Springs" he had circled around those people. The ground seemed to have turned into a thin layer of paper, linking to another dimension beneath, with a dark purple light emanating as if to engulf and melt the ground.

— Undoubtedly, this is the source of the anomaly and disturbance...

Gu Mo's eyebrows couldn't help but twitch hard, and he looked again at the jar he put back into his inventory. It wasn't considered a very special tool in that crazy Warring States Era, even in his impression, it was only suitable for handling troublesome human enemies, feeling not as useful as a simple grenade.

But in this modern era where even the Divine Power of the Gods and Buddha has become exceptionally feeble, even the countless Gods have no choice but to compete fiercely, forming a surreal divine society, it was a little more special than he had imagined.

In fact, it was because the "Yellow Springs" was truly unique, though he hadn't realized this due to the worldview of the previous dungeon and didn't think there was anything special.

Because in that era of light and shadow, where humans and Demons clashed, the Mortal World and the Common World weren't strictly separated. The endless wars led to the rampant proliferation of the Wild Souls, with countless supernatural entities boldly appearing in the Mortal World, people becoming accustomed to their presence.

Basically speaking, the human world and the non-human world were completely overlapping in that era.

Primordial ghosts, Divine Spirits from the Celestial Realm, terrifying Great Demons, and various supernatural entities... they all once roamed freely in the human world, walked the earth, coexisted with humans; it was originally a time chaotic to the extreme, unlike the current world where—

Humans believe in science and intelligence, excluding the non-scientific world, namely Demons and ghosts, as superstition. Everything has become clear and distinct, with a very explicit boundary line between the concepts of the Mortal World and the Common World, no longer overlapping.

In such a scenario, even if it's the same "Yellow Springs," its Effect in these two different eras and worlds would naturally be vastly different.

This was something Gu Mo hadn't anticipated, but fortunately, the glowing anomaly caused by the volatilized "Yellow Springs" area sustained, without breaking through anything or opening something; at least, the anticipated grandiose scene of a purple light pillar piercing the sky and entering the clouds didn't occur.

Moreover, although the deep purple light emanating from the ground was initially bright, it gradually dimmed as the "Yellow Springs" rapidly vaporized, and shouldn't last too long...
