During the night, everyone had peacefully fallen asleep.
It was currently the middle of the night, and it was quite dark. A silver moon hung high in the sky, giving off a faint silver light.
Right now, this peaceful mountain village seemed quite deathly silent. There was no movement around, making it seem like a land of death.
It was just that occasionally, some hazy figures could be seen.
They were black figures standing in the surroundings, and no one knew where they had come from. They stood in the corners of the room, looking around.
If one went closer, they would find that they were all people, but they looked different from ordinary people. Not only were their faces incredibly pale, but their bodies also gave off a strange aura.
Standing in front, they looked at the scene within the room.
Within the room, Chen Heng and the others' appearances were displayed before them, and they watched their every action.
They watched the movements of the people in the room with exceptionally cold expressions. Their eyes were filled with a deathly stillness, and there were no emotions or appearances of the living. They did not seem like living people, but more like corpses that had died a long time ago.
They looked at the people who had mistakenly entered this place, but they only silently watched and did not do anything.
In the sky, a silver moon hung high in the sky, giving off a bright light.
However, he did not know if it was an illusion, but as time passed, the silver moon in the sky seemed to have a trace of blood-red color.
Everything seemed quite hazy and special.
If one were to look at this place from afar, they would discover a very shocking situation.
In the outside world, where the village had been, there was nothing left.
There were no abandoned villages here, nor were there any traces of people living here.
This looked like an ordinary place, and there were no signs of people living here.
Drip … Drip …
A series of crisp sounds rang out. It was extremely crisp, similar to the sound of water dripping on the floor.
Within the room, hearing this sound, Chen Heng silently opened his eyes.
The decorations in the room were very simple. He was lying on a bed full of straw, wearing the clothes he had worn before.
However, compared to the others, he looked like he was sleeping and was only in Meditation.
For Magi, meditation could replace sleep to a certain extent, and the effect was even better.
Moreover, Chen Heng was in a dangerous situation, so if he let down his guard and fell asleep so easily, he would be too careless.
Therefore, although he seemed to be asleep, he was actually awake.
"It's not raining …"
Getting up from the bed, Chen Heng looked at the situation outside and frowned.
Drip … Drip …
In the outside world, the drip-drip-drip-drip-drip had not ceased, and was still distinct in his ears.
However, it was not raining outside.
So where did the dripping sound come from?
As Chen Heng thought to himself, he silently got up from the bed.
From just now until now, he could clearly feel the changes in the vicinity.
The negative energy nearby was obviously much stronger than before.
This kind of situation was obviously not normal.
And now, those inexplicable noises had appeared here.
Chen Heng's expression was calm as he silently got up.
He got down from the bed and walked to the door. Then, he slowly stretched out his hand.
Outside, cold-looking figures stood there, coldly looking at Chen Heng.
Seeing Chen Heng's actions, they gave slight smiles.
Although it was a smile, this smile was quite terrifying.
Not only did it not have the gentleness and ease of ordinary people, but it instead gave off a suffocating pressure, as well as a strange influence. Anyone who saw it would feel quite panicked and fearful.
As they watched on, Chen Heng stretched out his hand, preparing to push open the door.
Seeing this, the smiles on the figures' faces became even more evident, and their eyes became blood-red as if they were preparing to welcome something.
However, in the next moment, under their gazes, Chen Heng seemed to sense something and his outstretched hand paused.
"That inexplicable aura …"
Standing there and sensing that aura, Chen Heng muttered to himself.
Just then, he had felt something strange.
It was an incredibly cold and eerie feeling that came from all directions, and it did not feel good.
It gave him the feeling that there were countless pairs of eyes staring at him from all directions.
This unusual behavior was obviously not an illusion.
Even though Chen Heng had lost most of his strength, he was not to the point where he was hallucinating.
This place was quite strange.
Chen Heng thought to himself.
In front of him, that dilapidated wooden door stood there, as if it had divided the world into two different regions. It also made people feel alarmed, and they couldn't help but feel nervous.
Outside, a gentle breeze blew. At first, it was just a simple breeze, but as time went on, it became more and more violent, as if it was about to blow the wooden door open.
Chen Heng was not surprised at all and turned to look.
In front of him, the dilapidated old wooden door was swaying, and the lock on it looked very fragile, as if it could break at any time.
From the looks of it, it seemed that as long as someone gave it a light push, the door would be completely pushed down.
However, despite this, the door did not fall. Even though it was swaying, it still stood there and was not blown open.
It was quite sturdy.
If it was anyone else here, they would have panicked and wanted to do something.
On the other hand, Chen Heng seemed quite calm as he watched the situation unfold.
After watching for a while, the wind outside suddenly stopped.
It was as if someone had pressed the pause button. The intense wind suddenly stopped and calmed down.
The surroundings fell into a state of silence, going from one extreme to another.
If an ordinary person was here, they would have been scared to death.
However, Chen Heng only looked and was not surprised.
Outside the door, after the sound of the wind, a series of footsteps suddenly rang out.
Just by listening to the footsteps, one could tell that these people's footsteps were very messy and full of panic. They seemed to be somewhat panic-stricken.
"Ekado, something's happened!"
A low voice sounded out from outside; it was Hedosili.
He ran in from outside, his footsteps hurried. He quickly arrived outside Chen Heng's room and continuously knocked on the door. "Ouro's people are here. We need to leave as soon as possible."
"Hurry and come out; we need to leave immediately!"
His voice was hurried, and it seemed that he was quite worried.
As he spoke, he continuously knocked on the door, trying to get Chen Heng to open it and let him in.
"The door isn't locked."
Within the room, Chen Heng's voice sounded out from outside.
Sitting on his bed of straw, Chen Heng raised his head and looked outside, "If you want to come in, then come in."
The room in front of him was not very tightly sealed, and through some cracks, Chen Heng could see what was outside.
Outside the wooden door, a tall young man stood there. From his appearance, he indeed looked like Hedosili.
It was just that compared to during the day, his face was much paler, and there was not a trace of blood on it. However, with his panicked expression, it did not seem too conspicuous.
It was already night time, so ordinary people wouldn't have noticed this detail.
Hearing Chen Heng's voice, Hedosili felt quite surprised, as if he had not expected such an answer.
However, he quickly came to his senses and knocked even harder.
"Ekdo, I'm not joking with you!"
His expression was anxious as he said seriously, "Oro's people are here; if we don't leave now, we might not make it in time."
He once again called out, but this time, he did not receive any response.
Chen Heng calmly sat there, looking at that faintly discernible figure outside, not paying any attention to that person.
Seeing Chen Heng's actions, they gave slight smiles.
Although it was a smile, this smile was quite terrifying.
Not only did it not have the gentleness and ease of ordinary people, but it instead gave off a suffocating pressure, as well as a strange influence. Anyone who saw it would feel quite panicked and terrified.
As they watched on, Chen Heng stretched out his hand, preparing to open the door.

Just then, he had sensed something strange.
It was an incredibly cold and eerie feeling that came from all directions, and it did not feel good.
It gave him the feeling that there were countless pairs of eyes staring at him from all directions.
Evidently, this was not a misperception.
Even though he had lost most of his strength, Chen Heng was not to the point where he was hallucinating.
This place was quite strange.
That thought flashed in his mind.
In front of him, that dilapidated wooden door stood there, as if it had divided the world into two different regions. It also made people feel alarmed, and they couldn't help but feel nervous.
Outside, a gentle breeze blew. At first, it was just a simple breeze, but as time went on, it became more and more violent, as if it was about to blow the wooden door open.

However, Chen Heng only looked around and did not feel too surprised.
Outside the door, after the sound of the wind, a series of footsteps suddenly rang out.
Just from the sound of the footsteps, it was possible to tell that these people's footsteps were quite chaotic and filled with panic.
"Ekdo, something's happened!"
A low voice sounded out from outside; it was Hedoshiri.
He ran in from outside, his footsteps hurried. He quickly arrived outside Chen Heng's room and continuously knocked on the door. "Ouro's people are here. We need to leave as soon as possible."
Hurry and come out; we need to leave immediately! "
His voice was hurried, and it seemed that he was quite worried.

It was already night time, so ordinary people wouldn't have noticed this detail.
Hearing Chen Heng's voice, Hedoshiri felt quite surprised, as if he had not expected such an answer.
However, he quickly came to his senses and used even more force to knock on the door.
"Ekdo, I'm not joking with you!"
His expression was anxious as he said seriously, "Oro's people are here; if we don't leave now, we might not make it in time."
He once again called out, but this time, he did not receive any response.
Chen Heng calmly sat there, looking at that faintly discernible figure outside, ignoring him.
