Chapter 573 World Invasion: Cannon Fodder in Infinite Terror VS The Ghost King Killed by the Origina
Su Jinyue and Xiao Jing'an arrived at a place on the sea according to the address given by Director Huayang. According to the director, the passage was nearby.
Su Jinyue looked around: "Jing'an, this should be it. Look around for anything unusual; that should be the passage."
Xiao Jing'an responded and went to look for it, eventually discovering the anomaly ten meters above the sea.
After Xiao Jing'an finished inspecting the place, he flew down and said to Su Jinyue, "That place has the densest spatial power and is a weak point in the dimensional barrier. The people from the Xuanming Realm should have come from this place."
“Okay.” Su Jinyue looked up. “Then let’s go there. The people of the Xuanming Realm said that once we pass through the dimensional barrier, we’ll reach the Xuanming Realm.”
"Okay, Jin Yue, you must protect yourself. Spatial power can damage the soul. Your soul is not as solid as mine. Although it won't be fatal if you are hit by spatial power, it will still hurt." Xiao Jing'an was worried about Su Jin Yue and told her to stay behind him so that he could protect her.
Xiao Jing'an's soul is a fragment of a divine soul. Although it is a fragment, it is still a divine soul and is not afraid of this spatial power.
Su Jinyue was no stranger to the power of space. With her current strength, passing through the barrier would not be a problem. Besides, she had the system Kongkong, who could take her to travel freely between worlds, so this would be even less of a problem.
However, with her own man protecting her, Su Jinyue was willing to obediently be the one being protected.
Once the two were ready, they entered the passage between the two worlds. The process went smoothly, perhaps because the boundary between the two worlds was connected. Soon, the two arrived on the other side.
The exit of the passage in the Xuanming Realm is on a mountaintop, covered with tall trees. It's not winter yet, and the mountain is still lush and green.
However, the green here doesn't look vibrant or full of life; it's as if a layer of gray has been added to the original green, making the color dull.
Su Jinyue looked up and saw that not only the trees, but also the roadside flowers and grass, and the mountain streams were all like this. Even the air seemed to be filled with a hazy mist, giving people a sense of oppression that was pervasive and made them feel uncomfortable all over.
Moreover, the mountains and forests here are too quiet. Not to mention large animals like tigers, wolves, and bears, there is not even a trace of snakes, insects, or rodents.
Considering that the young master of Xuanming and the others are all souls, does this mean that not only are there no humans in this world, but there are no living things at all?
Su Jinyue wanted to continue exploring and look further away, but Xiao Jing'an suddenly grabbed her, quickly using his soul power to envelop her and hide her away.
Just as Su Jinyue and Xiao Jing'an had hidden themselves, a black aura rapidly approached them from another mountain peak.
The black mist first circled the passage before settling on the ground and taking on a human shape.
After revealing its form, the spirit looked around with a strange expression. Seeing that it didn't find anything unusual, it checked the passage again before slowly returning.
Su Jinyue raised an eyebrow. This soul was probably at the initial stage of Ghost King level. It seemed to be the one guarding this passage. Fortunately, she and Xiao Jing'an were cautious and did not let their guard down when they came over, so they did not give themselves away as soon as they arrived.
Being unfamiliar with the place, Su Jinyue and Xiao Jing'an exchanged a glance, and then tacitly followed the soul that had just left.
Soon, the two caught up with the spirit in front of them. After walking for a while, Su Jinyue realized that the spirit did not come from the nearby mountain.
This mountain forest seemed to belong to the territory of a certain force, because after following for about ten minutes, a group of buildings appeared in front of us, and their architectural style seemed to belong to the same organization.
This complex is built on a mountain range, with the main peak being the highest and the buildings on it occupying the largest area, seemingly indicating the highest status.
There were also houses on the other peaks, and they all seemed to be inhabited.
Looking further afield, at the foot of the mountain, adjacent to the buildings on the mountain, lies a plain. The buildings on the mountain have roads leading down to the foot of the mountain, and there is also a large area of buildings at the foot of the mountain, resembling a large town. It is not as grand and magnificent as the buildings on the mountain, but the houses are densely packed, suggesting that many people live there.
Su Jinyue and the other person followed the soul and saw him enter a building on the outer edge of the mountain, near the inner side. Inside, there were other souls similar to him, but some were weaker than him, while others were as strong as him.
Su Jinyue and the other person did not dare to get too close. Although none of the soul bodies they had seen so far had a strength exceeding Xiao Jing'an's, they could not guarantee that there were no hidden big shots, so they still had to be cautious.
Finally arriving at a place with 'people', Su Jinyue didn't care where the previous soul had gone. Instead, she and Xiao Jing'an quietly investigated the area.
The dwellings here show no trace of technology; they resemble the living conditions of ancient people in history, or the dwellings of cultivators.
Su Jinyue observed that this place seemed to be a clan or sect, and the souls inside were still living according to human customs.
She secretly observed the 'people' here. Although they were all spirits, most of them were still used to living as living people.
Moreover, their souls can cultivate into physical forms, so their daily lives are not affected.
However, even if one lives like a living person, one is still not a normal person.
Even the most hardened human beings, like beasts of burden, still have a sparkle in their eyes during their precious weekends, and they have their own preferences and needs.
But these souls in this world only have numbness and confusion in their eyes.
Even the spirits that patrolled daily were listless, doing their jobs in a routine manner, without any vitality or life force.
Although the patrols are not very thorough, the souls living here are relatively fixed, making it unsuitable for strangers like Su Jinyue and Xiao Jing'an to appear.
After discussing it with Xiao Jing'an, Su Jinyue decided to go down the mountain first to check and gather information.
She looked up and saw that the mountain resembled a sect or clan, and the town below depended on the mountain for its existence.
Whether it's a sect or a family, even if you don't know the people inside, you'll still recognize their faces. Even if Su Jinyue and her companion disguised themselves as people inside, they might expose their secrets due to incomplete information. It would be more convenient for them to go down the mountain.
There was a small town at the foot of the mountain, but it was a melting pot of all sorts of people. Su Jinyue and her companion would go unnoticed and it would be easier for them to gather information.
After agreeing on the terms, Su Jinyue and Xiao Jing'an quickly went down the mountain.
Upon reaching the entrance to the town at the foot of the mountain, Su Jinyue noticed a significant difference between the town and the mountain; the town was much more dilapidated and old.
At the town entrance, there is a city gate that is only half intact. Only the character "玄" remains on the gate. The rest of the gate appears to have been violently destroyed a long time ago, as the exposed bricks have weathered away.
