Chapter 41: New Plot Point, a Suddenly Eerie Art Style!

The corridor leading to the second floor appeared ominous.

This place had undergone the same changes as the Zongmen Jindi, with a mist invisible to the naked eye shrouding this area.

Su Qiu, who was still at the Acquired Body Refining Realm, had been able to see the edge of the second floor with his naked eye!

But now.

As someone at the Innate Qi Refining Realm, he could only see the situation on the seventh step of the corridor!

"Something must have gone wrong with Hu Xian."

"I should have thought of this sooner. How could the activation of the myriad Fuyun Array not affect Hu Xian, who is being suppressed within the formation?"

Su Qiu whispered, blaming himself.

The moment his voice fell, he took a step, preparing to set foot into the corridor shrouded by the mist.

After all,

this was the only way he could know the situation regarding Hu Xian.

Only by going to the second floor and standing before Hu Xian could he know how she was doing.

And before truly heading into the depths of the mist.

Su Qiu thought of something.

He stretched a foot out behind him, blocking Bai Ze, who was also preparing to head into the depths of the mist: "Xiao Bai, you stay here."

"The path ahead is very dangerous."

Although he had only spent a few days with Bai Ze, he had never viewed this little fellow as a Spirit Pet.

They were friends.

It was precisely for this reason.

That Su Qiu did not intend to take Bai Ze along to take risks.

It was just a pity.

Su Qiu's words were not taken in by Bai Ze.

"Meow!"

After letting out a cry.

Bai Ze chose to step directly past Su Qiu, walking to the very front of the path leading into the depths of the mist.

It was viewed as a friend by Su Qiu.

Bai Ze had actually realized this long ago.

Therefore.

Its favorability had increased so quickly.

And when its favorability reached eighty-five percent, Bai Ze had completely accepted Su Qiu in its heart; it had made up its mind to follow Su Qiu for a lifetime.

As such,

when it was time to take risks alongside its master, how could it, as a Spirit Pet, shrink back from the challenge?

It had the bloodline of a divine beast flowing through its body.

It could not afford to lose face! Seeing this scene, Su Qiu could not help but reveal a faint smile, and he followed in Bai Ze's footsteps: "Alright! Let's go together!"

Gradually, the figures of the man and the cat were completely swallowed by the mist.

This was a mist that could even block the vision of those at the Innate Qi Refining Realm.

Even though the camera followed closely.

The audience in the Xianshishijie could not see the scene right before their eyes.

Simply put: from the moment Su Qiu stepped onto the corridor, they could only rely on sound to guess the story unfolding within. 【This mist is too damn eerie!】

【Damn it! Even the perspective shown by the camera is being blocked; what exactly is this dungeon trying to do?】

【I feel like a high-energy scene is about to appear; after all... that's how it is in games.】

【Is it only us in the Great Yan Empire experiencing this?】

【No! My friend from the Great Yan Empire, have you forgotten the fairness of the Blood Curtain?】

【Are you saying it's like this all over the world?】

【That's right. I just came back from the Qiongdong Zhibojian of the Nu Hai nation; their Destiny-Chosen one is experiencing the same situation.】

【Ah-shi-ba, damn this Blood Curtain!】

【It is incredibly indulgent toward Su Qiu in terms of rules, yet it becomes fair at a time like this? What a baka!】

【Uh, the two Bang Zi bug viewers above, stop saying these things. Your country has already been invaded by the Guiyi, and you're still watching the bull-demon livestream?】

【Exactly, exactly.】

【Honestly deal with the Guiyi in the Xianshishijie!】

【Don't end up bumping into a ghost while watching.】

【...】 As the thick fog covered everything.

The entire Xianshishijie erupted in heated discussion.

Everyone expressed their opinions on this.

But however... no matter how they discussed it, they could never get to the truth behind the rising fog.

The only explanation was: the game had reached a certain stage, and some special 【Plotlines】, 【Options】, and 【Hidden Quests】 had been unlocked... The Destiny-Chosen ones,

would have to deal with this newly arrived plot.

Nu Hai nation, Qiongdong Zhibojian.

Sikefu was experiencing a strange phenomenon different from the previous days.

For example: that broken clock hanging in the living room had started to turn.

In the places of the room not reached by sunlight, continuous ghostly shadows appeared; sometimes, he could even hear whispering sounds.

Of course!

The most obvious anomalies were still the second-floor corridor and the outside world.

The second-floor corridor was wrapped in strange fog.

Now, he simply could not see the world above the first-floor corridor with his naked eyes!

And the Home Door.

The number of times it was knocked on was also increasing more and more.

"Damn it!"

As a high-level player, Sikefu knew very clearly.

The reason these strange things were happening should be related to 【the game having reached a certain progress】.

And from the changes that occurred this time, Sikefu could also make a new judgment: 【Every period of time.】

【Guiyi Zhijia will undergo a very obvious change!】

【The abilities of the Guiyi will be enhanced!】

【Although they cannot directly attack the Chosen One, they can already change the environmental factors of the home and partially manifest.】

【If the Chosen One cannot maintain sanity under the influence of the Guiyi.】

【And makes the wrong decision, violating the rules, then... he will be completely eliminated by this home.】

【There is still a long time until thirty days.】

【Can I,】

【make it?】

Thinking of all this, Sikefu's expression became even more solemn.

He said somewhat helplessly: "As expected... Gui Tan will not let the Chosen One survive so easily."

From now on.

The Chosen One's judgment will be very seriously affected!

Even the Chosen One's mental pressure will increase several times over! In addition, these strange events will also interfere with the Chosen One's continued exploration of the home, just like the fog shrouding the second-floor corridor!

It will extremely seriously affect the player's exploration related to the corridor!

If Sikefu had not found that blank note in the previous time, then he might have missed that thing forever!

"Sigh."

After thinking these things through, Sikefu withdrew his thoughts.

He leaned against the sofa in the living room.

He closed his eyes and rubbed his temples with both hands, attempting to alleviate his mental fatigue.

"Sikefu."

However, the moment he made this movement! From the living room, in the corner of the curtain that was not reached by sunlight, a woman's voice suddenly called out!

This call made Sikefu's hair stand on end, and he opened his eyes instantly! It was also at this moment.

A distorted figure appeared before Sikefu's eyes.

That was, 【Mother】! 【Mother】 was holding tableware, smiling and greeting Sikefu: "Look at what time it is now, go wash up quickly and then come eat dinner."

It was currently midday, and the sunlight was shining straight onto the ground.

Countless rays of light fell into the home through the glass, forming a sharp contrast with the shadowed areas that could not be reached.

And under these circumstances.

Standing in front of the Chosen One was 【Mother】; it was pitch black all over, just like a shadow.

This 【Mother】 was smiling and greeting the Chosen One.
