210. Chapter 210: The Building That Cannot Be Destroyed

Old City District, dust flying, a gray haze.

The explosion and impact just now had disappeared. The original Wang Sect Residential District had become a ruin, with broken walls and ruins everywhere, but this bombardment was only aimed at this one district. The nearby buildings, except for being affected a bit, had no damage at all.

The cultivators who had hidden before also appeared now, facing the flying dust.

"Cough, cough!" Zhang Lei waved his hand hard, the strong wind whistling, fanning away a piece of dust. Afterward, he and Daoist Priest Pete joined forces again, intending to see how the Wang Sect Residential District was doing.

"The Investigation Bureau's 'East Wind Great Law' is indeed not bad, very much to my liking. If it is combined with the 'White Phosphorus Evil-Driving Great Law', the effect will be even better. Mere evil spirits are not worth mentioning." Daoist Priest Pete stroked his beard and nodded, the cross on his chest appearing exceptionally bright in the gray street, as if he were a high-ranking expert.

"This thing cannot be used indiscriminately. The Investigation Bureau is willing to agree to your proposal because they want to preserve their strength. Now almost all the Spirit Perception experts in Tianchang City have come. If there is another accident, there will be no way to deal with transcendent creatures later." Zhang Lei said: "Eh, what's going on with that building? Why is it still standing there, intact?"

Suddenly.

Zhang Lei saw that on the ruins of the Wang Sect Residential District, an old residential building was still standing, and what was strange was that there were yellowish lights coming from the windows of that building. Everything appeared so strange.

"Evil, that building is very evil." Daoist Priest Pete's pupils also condensed, feeling it was inconceivable.

Under the East Wind Great Law, all other residential buildings in the district had been completely destroyed. It was impossible for only one building to remain. There must be a supernatural power protecting this building, which was why it remained intact under such bombardment.

"Could it be that there is a Mystic Object in that building?" Zhang Lei said in a deep voice: "The energy field of a complete Mystic Object is enough to cover a building, and Mystic Objects have miraculous powers. Protecting a building should not be a problem."

A complete Mystic Object?

Daoist Priest Pete showed a thoughtful expression.

This possibility could not be ruled out.

But according to his guess, the probability of a Mystic Object was not very high; the probability of an evil spirit was very high.

At the same time.

Other cultivators also appeared one after another.

Gu Mengping, Yu Chuan, Li Shaoqing, Li Yi... they gathered near the Wang Sect Residential District again, trying to search in this ruin, but they also quickly discovered the clues.

A residential building standing in the ruins, complete and intact?

This scene was astonishing.

"No way, under such bombardment, there is still a building that was not affected? This is completely against common sense." A Spirit Perception expert said inconceivably.

Li Shaoqing's expression flickered: "This building is very unusual. There must be an extraordinary power covering the building, protecting it; otherwise, it would be impossible for it to have no issues at all."

"Li Shaoqing, I also guess so. I think there might be a complete Mystic Object in that building." Zhang Lei walked over with large strides and said.

"A complete Mystic Object?"

Li Shaoqing then smiled and said: "If there were a Mystic Object in the Old City District, it would have been discovered long ago. I think the probability of a Mystic Object is not high; the probability of an evil object is much greater. Facing this kind of supernatural phenomenon, my suggestion is to blockade it on the spot, do not deal with it, and do not go to investigate. In this way, the loss can be minimized."

"This won't do. What if that woman is still hiding in this building? By then, the walking corpse incident will appear again." Zhang Lei immediately rejected this proposal, then said: "I think we should take the risk to go in and investigate. At least we must finish off that woman."

"If you are not careful, people will die. Zhang Lei, this is not a joke." Gu Mengping said at this moment.

Who is willing to go into that building to investigate?

It couldn't even be blown up; the danger inside could be imagined.

Zhang Lei said: "Whether there is danger, just go near and investigate to know. Spirit Perception will not lie. All Spirit Perception Realm cultivators present, come with me. Li Yi, you come too."

He directly and forcefully led everyone, not giving them room to bargain.

Everyone looked at each other.

No way, they could only bite the bullet and go over to see.

Li Yi didn't refuse either. He said: "Zheng Gong, Yuan Mingjin, find a position to set up the sniper rifle, ready to open fire and support at any time. Fang Hang, Cheng Pingfang, you two are the same as before, protect them well. Leave other things to us."

"No problem." Several people nodded and agreed.

Afterward, Li Yi, Lin Yue, and Zhao Lingfu walked toward the building that could not be destroyed together.

Of course, it wasn't just them. Li Shaoqing, Gu Mengping, Yu Chuan, and others were also acting. Before long, all the Spirit Perception experts walked into the destroyed Wang Sect Residential District under Zhang Lei's leadership.

The district was a ruin.

But in the ruins, some people saw some bones. Those bones were very unusual, with traces of evolution, much harder than ordinary bones, and the number was not small.

This showed that the number of walking corpses in this district was very large. It was just because of an explosion that all these walking corpses were destroyed; otherwise, there would definitely be a fierce battle.

And these incomplete bones also proved that Daoist Priest Pete's proposal was not wrong; there was indeed huge danger here.

"There is no danger elsewhere, only this building is left." Zhang Lei said in a deep voice.

Took a turn.

So many Spirit Perceptions found no abnormality, which showed that other places destroyed in the Wang Sect Residential District no longer had danger.

Before long.

Everyone came to this old residential building.

The building was very ordinary; it seemed that nothing special could be seen, and Spirit Perception experts approaching it didn't sense any danger.

"Spirit Perception didn't warn; this is strange." Zhang Lei frowned.

Others also circled the building and all shook their heads.

Even their Spirit Perception was the same; they didn't sense any danger.

"Mostly our perception was blocked, just like the energy field of a Mystic Object. Being covered by an energy field, perception will disappear." Li Yi said at this moment.

"There is this possibility." Li Shaoqing nodded.

Lin Yue immediately said: "So speaking, there might be a Mystic Object in this building?"

"Maybe that thing has already become a climate and can condense an energy field by itself. It is not impossible to save a building in the explosion." Li Yi said another guess, while Liu Yan's pale human face appeared in his mind.

"If there is something that can condense an energy field by itself, the danger level is not ordinary. Even if we join forces, I estimate we can't handle it." Yu Chuan shook his head and said, while a trace of worry appeared in his eyes.

"No matter what, this matter should have a handling plan. Zhang Lei, what do you think?" Gu Mengping asked: "I also suggest blockading it on the spot and ending this mission."

He, like others, didn't want to take too big a risk.

At this moment, others also looked at Zhang Lei one after another.

He represented the Investigation Bureau and had to make a decision at this time.

Zhang Lei was also frowning at this moment, feeling a bit of a headache. Whether it was blockading on the spot or taking the risk to go in and investigate, neither was a good idea. The former was easy to leave hidden dangers, and the latter had to take huge risks. If not careful, these Spirit Perception experts might even die here.

However, just as he was thinking.

Suddenly.

A sound of footsteps suddenly came from the stairwell of this intact residential building.

This sound appeared and immediately attracted everyone's attention.

The scene was instantly quiet.

Everyone's gaze looked at the stairwell in unison, looking for the source of the sound.

Soon.

A woman's figure appeared in everyone's line of sight. This woman was wearing a camisole, her figure was graceful, but her whole body was cyan, her skin color was very abnormal, and a pair of eyes emitted faint light, and a pale face had no blood color at all.

"It's that woman..." Zhang Lei's expression instantly condensed.

"It's Liu Yan." Li Yi's heart trembled. The one person he was most wary of had finally appeared.

But even if Liu Yan appeared, everyone still didn't sense danger. It seemed that just as they said before, something blocked their perception, making people unable to sense the things in this building.

"Clearly the eyes can see, but can't sense anything at all..." All the Spirit Perception experts had such thoughts in their hearts.

"Bang!"

Just at this moment, a gunshot suddenly sounded.

Daoist Priest Pete acted very quickly, and the bullet was very accurate, but this shot didn't hit Liu Yan, but hit the wall behind her.

Liu Yan was already in a side-facing state at this moment.

Clearly, she dodged Daoist Priest Pete's shot.

"Can dodge Daoist Priest Pete's shot at such a close distance?" Li Shaoqing's expression became solemn.

He knew Daoist Priest Pete's marksmanship. At such a close distance, even with Spirit Perception warning, one might not be able to dodge the bullet, but that strange woman did it.

Perhaps Daoist Priest Pete's behavior angered Liu Yan. At this moment, Liu Yan slowly walked toward everyone with a pale face.

"Be careful." Li Shaoqing's Spirit Perception warned crazily, and he couldn't help but shout a reminder at this moment.

Instantly.

Liu Yan actually disappeared from where she was, her figure so fast that it was impossible to capture with sight. She rushed out of that building and appeared beside a Spirit Perception expert in just one encounter. This Spirit Perception expert was named Zhou Xiong, Li Shaoqing's teammate. At this moment, his pupils shrank abruptly, subconsciously wanting to retreat to avoid the danger.

But it was too late.

A palm covered in corpse spots had already penetrated Zhou Xiong's chest, and a bright red beating heart was actually dug out alive by her.

Blood sprayed, staining Liu Yan's whole body red.

A Spirit Perception expert finished in just one encounter?

"Damn it, this thing's strength is even more terrifying than when I saw her last time." Zhang Lei roared, then his tall body rushed to kill, trying to kill this woman.

"Damn it."

Li Shaoqing was also furious at this moment. As the Vice President of the Cultivator Association, although he didn't like to take risks, he absolutely couldn't sit idly by when seeing his teammate killed.

Used the Divine Movement Technique.

His whole person turned into a residual shadow and disappeared from where he was, his speed also so fast that it was difficult to capture with sight.

Liu Yan revealed a creepy smile at this moment. She opened her mouth and actually swallowed this fresh heart in one bite. This scene was like a monster in a story, actually wanting to swallow a person's heart alive to fill her stomach.

Li Shaoqing killed first. He didn't seek to kill the enemy, just hoped to delay for a while, so that others would have a chance to act.

But the moment he killed, he found that his strike missed.

The Liu Yan before him actually disappeared into thin air.

A strange laughter came from all around, like a ghost playing with everyone.

"Where is she?" Li Shaoqing was both shocked and angry.

This scene went beyond his understanding; it was completely incomprehensible.

The others who wanted to make a move were also stunned.

She vanished from the spot in an instant; this was no longer just a matter of speed, but more like a technique—a spell akin to those in myths and legends.

"What on earth is this thing?" Li Yi's expression was solemn. He clenched his fists, wanting to strike but not knowing how.

That Liu Yan would vanish in a flicker, making it difficult to keep up even with the fastest attacks.

Could it be that the best time to attack was only when the opponent appeared to strike?

But if that were the case, who would be the next victim?
