Chapter 160: Strange Mist Enters the Yin World

Yin World.

A stretch of endless mountain ridges, surrounded by Yin Qi that spirals upward, ascending into the Nine Heavens. Three figures stand here, radiating and surrounded by rampant Magic Qi and Demon Qi, looking straight ahead. Yet strangely, there is nothing in front of them.

"Third Brother, you are bold this time. To actually dare to lure that kind of thing out—aren't you afraid of capsizing in the gutter?"

"Indeed, that thing is incomparably Weird. I fear it won't be able to dissipate later, and we will end up with nothing, all our schemes ruined."

"What are you two afraid of, Big Brother and Second Brother? You didn't seem afraid when you were plotting against me before." The last figure said gloomily, making the other two figures feel somewhat awkward.

"Rest assured, since I brought it out, I naturally have a handle on it."

"Let these things cleanse the place first; it will save us from any messy resistance when we occupy that region of the Present World, wasting our strength."

That figure gave such an assurance, leaving the other two half-believing and half-doubting.

Huh?

After that voice gave its assurance, a flash of doubt crossed its mind. What is going on? Why does it feel like those things have decreased after erupting? Could it be an illusion?

Jinpeng looks straight ahead, his gaze seemingly able to cross the Void, casting it into the Present World to see the situation of the White Strange Mist.

At this moment, the White Strange Mist near Bei'an City retreats, dissolves, and is swept away under the Great Sun Radiance, returning to peace; even the plants and animals that had been swallowed and covered have returned...

The crowd is greatly astonished.

What kind of Immortal God is this person? Why do they possess such great power? To actually be able to suppress such a Weird White Strange Mist and cause it to retreat and dissolve? Why has a Great Sun risen slowly within the city?

Is this an illusion or True Reality?

If it were an illusion, why would these rays of light be able to do anything to the White Strange Mist? If it were True Reality, that is impossible—who could peer into the power of the Great Sun in the sky?

To be able to do this, they must be an Immortal God.

Just as everyone was puzzled, Ma Suxuan suddenly thought of a possibility: could this Great Sun be a Dharma Aspect? She gasped in her heart, greatly astonished.

Could it be that a powerhouse at the Innate Above level truly exists within Bei'an City?

Has that mysterious powerhouse reached that realm?

But... even so.

How could they possibly condense a Dharma Aspect of the Great Sun? No one can touch the Great Sun; this is an iron law of the world.

Various guesses flashed through her mind, but she quickly suppressed the shock and doubt in her heart and spoke aloud. "Many thanks to the senior for saving us, for saving Bei'an City. The grace of this salvation will never be forgotten!"

Ma Suxuan took the lead, and the crowd, stunned, also bowed together from afar toward Bei'an City and that brilliant Great Sun.

"There is no need for that; come in."

The voice sounded again.

"Yes, senior."

The crowd replied respectfully and returned to Bei'an City together. At the same time, they discovered that the brilliant Great Sun was moving outside the city, as if to chase the White Strange Mist in the distance that had not yet dissolved or retreated.

"I am going to investigate the truth of this mist. You stay here and do not wander off. Rest assured, with the purification of my power and the protection of that 'You', Bei'an City will be fine."

The crowd was stunned, and before they could say anything, the brilliant Great Sun had already moved far away. Ma Suxuan watched the Great Sun depart with a complex expression, then heard the happy cheers of the people in the city and let out a long sigh of relief. Regardless, Bei'an City was saved.

Although the White Strange Mist surging toward Bei'an City had retreated and dissolved, it was still surging and rolling in all other directions, sweeping away everything. Li Heng going out at this moment was to resolve these disasters.

He flew along the way, and his Great Sun Dharma Image moved slowly as well.

The White Strange Mist, which had been incomparably ferocious and ignored everything, retreated and dissipated as if it had seen a ghost, as if it had encountered its natural nemesis, no longer able to show off its might.

However, Li Heng also frowned.

Even though he had advanced to Innate, his mind's ability to interfere with Heaven and Earth Origin Qi could not be said to reach everywhere, but it was still very vast, and at the same time meticulous, gradually delving into the essence of Heaven and Earth.

Yet even with this level of mental power, he still could not analyze what this White Strange Mist actually was. Perhaps... Ren Hai, who had gone mad and jumped into the White Strange Mist, would know something?

At that time, he had used the Luck within his Official Seal to investigate, and the power of Luck should be a level higher than Innate Power. It is just unknown what he learned that caused him to go directly insane.

Or perhaps...

Did that information contain ineffable mental Pollution?

But even so, he could not be like Ren Hai and jump into the White Strange Mist to find him; that would be extremely dangerous. It seems that after returning, he must take that broken Official Seal; perhaps some information remains inside.

He suppressed these distracting thoughts and reflections back into the depths of his heart.

Li Heng focused on dispelling and dissolving the White Strange Mist, incidentally suppressing, killing, and blasting apart the Weird and Ghost Domain that were revealed, harvesting Source Power.

The previous mutation of Yin Qi was a Weird Disaster for the human race, and the human race suffered. But now, he is the Weird Disaster for these Weirds, and the Weirds are suffering!

In the Yin World.

The expressions of the three figures changed abruptly.

They truly sensed that the White Strange Mist they had released was actually slowly decreasing; this simply did not conform to Reason!

"Third Brother, what is going on here?"

Qingshi and Baixiang looked at Jinpeng in confusion.

"I am not too sure either. By all logic, it shouldn't be this way. This White Strange Mist has an extremely high essence; it is something from that place. I merely found a gap and leaked it into the Present World."

"Therefore, the power of this thing should not have diminished at all."

"Not to mention us, even those above us at the Grand Innate level would probably have to run if they encountered this thing. If they didn't run, the only word for them would be 'missing'. Eventually, as the mist retreats, they would disappear completely."

Jinpeng said in a deep voice.

"Could it be that the white mist is retreating now? So fast?"

The two demons asked again, puzzled.

"Impossible! I am observing that gap, and those mists have no tendency to roll back. Someone must be interfering. Could it be a powerhouse above the Innate level? That shouldn't be; how could such a powerhouse be in such a small place?"

Jinpeng was also incomparably puzzled.

"No, I don't care who is interfering; this matter must be completed! In a moment, I will open the gap wider. I don't believe this White Strange Mist can continue to retreat!"

He said viciously again.

At the same time, there was one reason he did not say aloud.

That was that the appearance of the White Strange Mist might force out the treasure of the Kong Que clan. Although he could not sense where the Kong Que's aura was in the Present World, it was definitely in this so-called Bei'an County!

"Then you must hold on tight; don't let things get out of hand."

"It isn't just the three of us watching the Present World."

Qingshi and Baixiang said gloomily.

Present World, within the borders of Bei'an County.

Li Heng raised an eyebrow.

He felt that this White Strange Mist, which had been fleeing and dissipating like a stray dog, was now becoming even more turbulent? It was even surging with even purer White Strange Mist from within?

He activated his Heavenly Eye and could vaguely see a few wisps of Pure White Qi within the White Strange Mist; even when affected by his Great Sun Radiance, they did not show the slightest movement.

What on earth was this?

Li Heng sneered and caused his Great Sun Dharma Image to vibrate, pushing its power and radiance to a higher level. At the same time, his own Great Sun Sacred Body connected with the Great Sun in the sky, causing it to descend a sliver of power to bolster the Great Sun Dharma Image.

Within the Yin World.

Jinpeng flashed with confusion—what was going on? He had created a large gap and even released some things that were difficult to handle, so why was the White Strange Mist retreating faster and faster?

Bang!

A blasting sound came from somewhere unknown; the three demons felt the surrounding space vibrate, and then a few wisps of Pure White Qi actually tore through the Void and appeared before them.

In an instant, the three demons were terrified.

"Go!" Jinpeng roared, fleeing in a flash.

The other two demons also hurriedly followed behind.

And at this moment, following the appearance of these few wisps of Pure White Qi, strands of White Strange Mist also gradually appeared above Ten Thousand Demon Ridge, looking like the morning mist.

In the Present World, Li Heng was somewhat puzzled.

What kind of thing were those few wisps of Pure White Qi?

His second-tier Great Sun Radiance had blasted all the surrounding White Strange Mist into Emptiness, but it had only shaken these wisps of Pure White Qi away, causing them to sink into the Void, not knowing where they had run off to.

He sensed slightly, but felt no danger.

His own Luck did not give him any warning either.

Hmm, I suppose it won't affect me; forget it.

Li Heng continued flying forward; his destination was the Sanshan Gathering. There were many living people there as well, who were currently suffering from the encroachment of the White Strange Mist and were already on the verge of being unable to resist.

Sanshan Gathering.

All the surviving commoners were huddled near that Earth Temple, lingering on in a desperate struggle, not daring to go outside.

It was already difficult enough with the thick Yin energy outside, but now they could see the turbulent White Strange Mist outside even more clearly; the layer of light protecting them was crumbling under the encroachment of the White Strange Mist.

It was clearly about to give out.

Some people were even so desperate that they wanted to commit suicide.

Kong Que looked at all this, revealing a look of shame.

Had she failed the hopes of her clan, and was she now to fail the instructions of her master? Although her strength was not great, she could feel the danger of this White Strange Mist and believed that, with her own strength, she would not be able to survive if she faced it.

"Damn it, I'm done living!"

Suddenly, a man lying on the ground with a crippled leg cursed angrily, wanting to dash his head against the pillar in front of him to end it all quickly.

At this moment, he was intercepted by a somewhat chubby middle-aged man carrying a family of three. "Brother, show some respect; don't die at a time like this. Come, let's be friends; my surname is Lu."

Lu Dafu said with a smile.

In such a depressing and desperate environment, one could not let someone commit suicide in public; otherwise, it might trigger a bad trend, such as everyone wanting to commit suicide.

"Miss Kong Que, is there really no other way?"

Lu Dafu's wife, Tang Rong, said softly.

"This..."

Kong Que looked at Tang Rong before her, as well as the child she was holding with her right hand, and seemed to be able to see the Fire Seed within their bodies, revealing a look of hesitation...

But soon, she was suddenly stunned, her face showing surprise.

Master had arrived!

Li Heng had rushed over all the way, dispersing the White Strange Mist and Town-killing many Weirds and Ghost Domains. He soon arrived at the Sanshan Gathering and very easily resolved the Strange Mist encroaching there.

Then he floated away, simultaneously tossing a sentence to Kong Que.

"You continue to help protect them; I have things to do."

Kong Que was stunned upon hearing this, then nodded happily.

It seemed Master had not abandoned her...

At this moment, Li Heng continued to rush toward the surrounding areas.

The reason he did not stay long at the Sanshan Gathering, or even go to find that female Great Demon, was because the White Strange Mist was still spreading in all directions and had to be resolved as soon as possible.

Of course, he was not a selfless firefighter.

The reason he did this was because after forcibly dispersing the White Strange Weirds, the Weirds and Ghost Domains that had been swallowed would be revealed; each one of them was walking Source Power, and he could not let them go!

He had already harvested over two thousand Source Power on his way to the Sanshan Gathering; the Source Power in other directions would certainly only be more, not less!

His Qi and Blood were also sufficient; even if the duration of the Great Sun Dharma Image ended, he could still manifest it again, so he did not need to worry about endurance issues.

The essence of the Great Sun Dharma Image was extremely high, and with the Great Sun in the sky able to descend a sliver of power to bolster it, the mere White Strange Mist was nothing to worry about, and the thick Yin energy was also easily resolved...

It was just that the Yin energy was more persistent.

It was unknown where it was seeping from; even if one area was purified, it would vaguely emerge from the Void again, so it was clearly a long-term problem...

After making a large circle, Li Heng finally resolved the turbulent White Strange Mist; these things no longer appeared within the borders of Bei'an County, and they were not endless like the Yin energy.

Because... in the Yin World, above Ten Thousand Demon Ridge.

The three demons looked at the gradually emerging Strange Mist, wanting to cry but having no tears.

Above Bei'an City, the Ye Family Third Young Master tore through the Void and emerged.

He looked around, then looked down at the city below, comparing it with the information the old guy had given him. He nodded in satisfaction; it seemed he hadn't strayed from his path, and this was the so-called Bei'an City.

He erupted with a powerful aura, instantly suppressing the entire city.

"I, the Ye Family Third Young Master, command you all to die."

The voice reached far and wide, sweeping through the entire city, and even Li Heng, who was far from Bei'an City, faintly heard it.

Li Heng frowned; people from the Ye Family?

The visitor was not here with good intentions.

However, was this person trying to court death?
