"Dong Xue is so cool!"
Li Zhengkang tugged at the corner of Liu Haoming's shirt as he stared at Dong Xue's back with glowing eyes. He was extremely excited.
The scene of Dong Xue destroying the ghost with a snap of her fingers had stunned him. Then, he was enveloped by an indescribable sense of security.
Liu Haoming was a little bewildered. Strictly speaking, the white-clothed spirit was the first evil spirit he had seen, unlike the bald old man in the farmhouse three days ago.
The bald old man looked exactly like an ordinary person. Liu Haoming even mistook him for Daoist Yu's assistant at first. However, the white-clothed spirit was different. Any normal person would know that she was an evil spirit when they saw her mangled appearance.
"Lingwei, do you know what that white-clothed evil spirit is?"
Liu Haoming asked the little girl beside him.
Lingwei thought for a moment and answered truthfully, "She is the guardian of this extraordinary domain and also the follower of the domain's owner. She is a rather unique extraordinary life form that will actively attack anyone who enters the domain."
Liu Haoming pondered, thinking that Lingwei was indeed from a national professional organization. She knew more than he did.
Perhaps she and Dong Xue had experienced similar things before and were used to it. That was why Dong Xue could destroy the white-clothed spirit so calmly.
"In this domain, are there many extraordinary life forms like this?" Liu Haoming continued to ask.
"There should be a lot, and some are strong and some are weak."
Lingwei answered hesitantly.
Her experience was not as rich as Dong Xue's. The only ancient god she had encountered was Emperor Zhen. She recalled the scene of the lucky senior commanding an army of thousands of skeletons in Emperor Zhen's ruins and used that as a reference.
Just as Lingwei said, there were many white-clothed spirits here, and there was more than one of them.
When everyone reached the foot of the mountain, they heard the eerie laughter again.
"Hehehe, hehehe …"
A white-clothed spirit floated down from the top of the mountain. Her long hair covered her face like a waterfall.
Huang Xing and the others felt their hair stand on end. Dong Xue raised her hand without hesitation and fired another fireball. The white-clothed spirit did not even have a chance to show her face before she was reduced to ashes.
"This kind of evil spirit only looks scary, but it's actually not that strong. There's no need to be afraid of it." Dong Xue turned around and comforted them.
Hearing this, everyone felt relieved. They felt that Dong Xue was like a goddess of war. As long as she was there, the white-clothed spirit would not be able to harm them.
Then, Dong Xue led everyone up the mountain.
The mountain path had long been paved. It was a staircase made of cement. No one knew who built it, but it extended up thousands of steps into the deep night sky, with no end in sight.
"This mountain is at least two to three thousand meters high."
Liu Haoming thought to himself. He secretly focused his attention on observing the surroundings, guarding against possible dangers on the way up the mountain.
It seemed that they had violated some kind of taboo. As they went up the mountain, the number of white-clothed spirits increased. At first, they came one by one to deliver their heads, but when Liu Haoming and the others reached more than a hundred steps, the white-clothed spirits attacked them in groups of three to five.
Now that the number of evil spirits had increased, it was no longer as easy for Dong Xue to deal with them as before. With a wave of her hand, a large amount of raging flames condensed into a long whip in her palm. Wherever the long whip passed, all the white-clothed spirits would be whipped into pieces. Such a miraculous scene made everyone gasp in amazement. They were deeply impressed by Dong Xue's extraordinary strength.
Li Zhengkang, who already had a crush on Dong Xue, turned into her fanboy. He could not wait to put on a cheerleading uniform and cheer for her from behind.
Liu Haoming's expression gradually became strange.
He still remembered that when he was playing Infinite Reincarnation, Dong Xue also used her fire ability to destroy the skeleton monsters in the Emperor Quake dungeon. The two were not very similar, but they were exactly the same!
However, how could the experience in the game be so similar to the experience in real life?
"I've never played games."
Suddenly, Liu Haoming remembered what Dong Xue said when he saw her for the first time.
A bold idea popped up in his mind uncontrollably.
Could it be …
The Emperor Quake dungeon he played that day was not a simple VR game, but an extraordinary realm similar to the one he was experiencing now?
Thinking of this, Liu Haoming instantly lost his composure. Right at this moment — —
"Help!"
A shrill cry for help suddenly came from above, interrupting Liu Haoming's thoughts.
He looked up and saw a man in ragged clothes running down the stairs from above. Three white-clothed spirits with bloody faces chased closely behind him.
When he saw the dozen people below, the man suddenly showed an expression as if he had seen his savior. Unexpectedly, he tripped on a protruding stone and flew into the air, falling towards the crowd.
Seeing that everyone was about to be knocked over by him like bowling balls, Dong Xue acted in time and released a gentle spiritual force to catch him. At the same time, she waved the fire whip in her right hand and whipped the three white-clothed spirits into ashes.
"You're an Extraordinary?!"
The ragged man was shocked at first, then he was overjoyed. "That's great, there's actually an Extraordinary here! We're saved! "
Dong Xue looked at him coldly, feeling that this person's actions were quite suspicious.
Along the way, not only did they not meet any tourists, they did not even meet any Transcendent members. Only this strange man was able to meet up with them. It was really suspicious.
"What's your name? Why are you on the mountain?" Dong Xue asked him.
She suspected that he was most likely a Bi Fang and was deliberately approaching Liu Haoming.
"My name is Ma Wenqiang. I originally came to Mount Mang to camp tonight, but there was a sudden earthquake just now. I don't know what happened, but I was inexplicably shaken to the mountain." The man who called himself Ma Wenqiang replied.
"When I woke up, I saw those three ghostly things baring their fangs and brandishing their claws to kill me. I was so scared that I quickly ran away, and then I met you guys." Ma Wenqiang continued with a pleading expression.
"You are an Extraordinary. In this kind of place, no one can be more powerful than you. I beg you to protect me. After I safely escape, I'll definitely give you a lot of money to thank you!"
Dong Xue stared at Ma Wenqiang for a while. She didn't feel any Spiritual Energy fluctuations from his body, but he didn't seem to be lying.
And according to Lu Haoran, the Bi Fang's face hidden under the mask was disfigured, while Ma Wenqiang's face was ordinary. From this point, the possibility of him being a Bi Fang was very small.
Thus, she believed him.
"You follow behind them, I'll protect you." Dong Xue said and turned to continue climbing the mountain.
She was a Transcendent member. Protecting the safety of ordinary people was her mission. Moreover, it didn't conflict with her mission to protect Liu Haoming, so there was no comparison of priorities. Naturally, she wouldn't abandon Ma Wenqiang.
"Thank you, beautiful! I can't thank you enough! "
Ma Wenqiang repeatedly thanked her.
