Chu Jie, Kong Feiying, Zhao Wenbin, and more than a dozen other prodigies who did not use any energy to protect their bodies and had ingested a large amount of the grey mist, were all excited. The gloominess on their faces was swept away, and as if they had been given a new lease of life, they let out joyful howls and began to greedily gulp down the rainwater.
"What … what did I do just now?"
"I actually attacked my own people, how … how could I do such a thing …"
The faces of the Death Warriors who had regained consciousness were blank. They looked at the blood on their hands and recalled what they had done, and their faces instantly turned pale.
They were only Death Warriors groomed by various large families, and they were very clear about the rules of their respective families. They knew very well how serious the mistake they had just made was, and how disastrous the consequences would be for them.
Not only would they die without a doubt, but even their families and clans would be annihilated.
"Young Lord, please spare me.
Young Lord, please spare me, I completely lost my mind just now, I didn't even know what I was doing … "
"Young Lord, please spare me, we had no choice, we couldn't control ourselves …"
…
Many of the Death Warriors began to beg for mercy. They were not afraid of death, because they could only live for a hundred years at most, and they were more worried that the people behind them would be implicated.
This was because some of them had relatives, wives, children, or families. It was only because of various circumstances that they were forced to do something against their will, such as selling their lives to the top families, and being planted with slave imprints, becoming Death Warriors groomed by the Hundred Tribulations Divine King Dan.
Jin Hong's gaze swept across the Death Warriors, and after a moment of hesitation, he said to the other prodigies, "Since they have all recovered, hurry up and reorganize your troops. This is not a place to stay for long, we need to leave as soon as possible."
"Yes, yes, yes, even if there's a big problem, let's put it aside and leave this place first. That huge commotion just now must have alerted the Life Sucking Beasts in the distance. Who knows, there might be a large group of Life Sucking Beasts rushing here right now, we need to leave quickly, leave quickly …"
Hearing this, many people's hearts tightened, and dozens of prodigies immediately reorganized their troops and left in a hurry.
However, after this lesson, none of them dared to conserve their energy. They all conjured up an energy shield to isolate themselves from the thick fog.
A hundred miles away, Jianchen stood up from the back of the giant eagle. He grabbed at the direction of the group from a great distance.
With this grab, the space immediately twisted. Drops of rainwater were sucked into his palm from hundreds of miles away using the Law of Space, condensing into a thumb-sized water droplet that quietly floated in his palm.
His eyes shone brightly like a sharp needle. He wanted to pierce through the water droplet and see through the secrets it contained.
However, in his observation,
This was just ordinary rainwater. There was nothing special about it.
Jianchen would never believe that such ordinary rainwater could cure those men of sacrifice who had lost control.
As far as he knew, ordinary rain wouldn't be able to restrain this strange gray fog at all.
"No, it's not this rainwater." A gleam of light flashed through Jian Chen's eyes. He could clearly sense that the rainwater he had absorbed was slightly different from the rainwater that had awakened the sacrificial warriors. It was as if they were two completely different substances.
Jianchen continued to grab at the rainwater. In order to understand its secrets, he didn't care so much and prepared to directly take it from the bodies of the men of sacrifice.
Jianchen's body suddenly became illusory. From a solid body, he turned into a transparent shadow. Moreover, this shadow was constantly fading. After two breaths of time, Jianchen's shadow had completely disappeared.
When he disappeared, the condor below him glanced back. A sliver of confusion appeared in its muddy and dull eyes. This was because it could sense that Jianchen was still standing on its back, but it could no longer see Jianchen.
Jianchen used the Laws of Space to enter outer space before arriving before a man of sacrifice a hundred kilometers away. He gently touched the man's shoulder with his hand hidden in outer space, and some of the rainwater on the man of sacrifice immediately vanished strangely, landing in Jianchen's hand.
However, as soon as the rainwater landed in Jianchen's hand, Jianchen immediately frowned.
His soul had once fused with a strand of true Chaotic Force, so it was different from the rest. His senses were abnormally sharp, allowing him to discover many things that even experts at a higher level of cultivation than him could not. He could clearly sense that the rainwater had undergone some subtle changes when it was about to land in his hand.
It felt like something hidden in the rainwater had suddenly vanished.
"Just as I thought. It's not the rainwater that's allowed these people to recover, but something hidden in the rainwater. It's just a cover, "Jianchen thought. He was extremely surprised by this discovery, and he could not help but begin to doubt whether the rain was natural or man-made.
But what he couldn't understand was, if it was a natural rain, why would there be such a coincidence? Why would some of the strange substances contained in the rainwater suddenly disappear when he tried to absorb the rainwater to understand its secrets? Why would it use the rain as a cover?
However, if it was man-made, who would have the ability to hide from his senses in the World of the Fallen Beast that only cultivators under the age of a thousand could enter?
As for the Darkstar race, their strongest expert was only the Darkstar Emperor. Jianchen was confident that although he might not be the Darkstar Emperor's opponent right now, it was impossible for the Darkstar Emperor to hide from his senses.
For a moment, Jianchen remained where he was as he sank into deep thought. The light in his eyes constantly flickered as his expression constantly changed. Only when the group had travelled far away did he leave and return to the eagle.
An illusionary figure suddenly appeared in the forest after Jianchen had left. The figure was condensed from the power of a soul, so it was only possible to make out that it was a man. He was slender, but his facial features were blurry.
The illusionary man hovered in the air like a ghost as he faced Jianchen's direction. He seemed to be able to see Jianchen's figure sitting on the eagle's back a hundred kilometres away.
"Jianchen, this isn't the first time I've heard about you from Wuxin. Now that I've seen you, you really are quite extraordinary. You actually managed to discover the problem with the rainwater. However, even if that's the case, so what? How can a mere Infinite Prime like you see through something that I've personally taken action?" The illusionary man seemed to look at Jianchen as he muttered to himself. His voice was filled with admiration and disdain.
He did not seem to care about Infinite Primes at all. He did not take them seriously at all.
However, Jianchen did not sense anything at all. Even when the senses of his soul constantly enveloped a range of ten million kilometres, even covering the forest where the illusionary man resided, Jianchen failed to discover his existence at all.
Afterwards, the illusionary man seemed to look in the direction of Jin Hong and the others. He murmured, "Your cultivations may be weak, and you won't be able to cause any trouble in the Saints' World.
However, your strength cannot be underestimated in the Darkstar race. The formation formed by the many death warriors can even unleash the strength of First or Second Heavenly Layer Infinite Primes. It's enough to cause a huge storm in the Darkstar race. "
