After going around in circles, Sei Itō walked through the unexplored parts of Lolokda. Apart from those strange murals, he didn't find anything of value. Of course, Sei Itō didn't expect to find anything. After all, there must be professional treasure hunters among those who explored the ruins. With their methods, it would be too easy for them to clean up an entire ruin.
Further ahead was the unexplored part of the ruins. Sei Itō gathered his thoughts and carefully walked in.
At first, just like the ruins before him, there were strange murals and collapsed buildings. However, after passing through a doorway, an oppressive atmosphere enveloped the entire ruin. Even Sei Itō felt a little uncomfortable.
As he went deeper, the oppressive atmosphere suddenly changed. It was like a furious person. The violent pressure and cold killing intent filled the entire ruin. Sei Itō had to release his psychic force to resist it. However, it was like trying to put out a burning cart with a cup of water. The deeper he went, the greater the pressure. After walking a long distance, even Sei Itō felt that he couldn't take it anymore. A layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.
I was wondering why those hunters didn't explore the remaining part of the ruins. It's not that they didn't explore it, it's that they couldn't explore it. Sei Itō thought to himself. With his current psychic force level, he could be considered one of the best in the world of hunters. He wasn't inferior to some two-star hunters. Even with his ability, he was already like this, let alone the other hunters. Moreover, those hunters wouldn't be interested in this place.
Sei Itō withstood the pressure and continued walking. A palm-sized object appeared in his hand. After walking for a while, even Sei Itō couldn't take it anymore. Sei Itō activated the object in his hand. A transparent glass-like barrier spread out from the object and enveloped Sei Itō. A hexagram pattern spun in Sei Itō's hand.
"Yin Yang Technique, Vajra Barrier!"
That was the name of the barrier. The item in his hand was a foundation stone that Sei Itō had prepared using a special method. This was something that Sei Itō made in his spare time as a precaution. It was troublesome to make, and finished products were rare. After all, it was not a position-type barrier. Making a cornerstone like this was quite complicated, so Sei Itō only had one finished product and a few half-finished products.
With the protection of the enchantment, Ito Sei felt that the pressure was reduced a lot, and he walked a little further. Perhaps Sei Itō had triggered something, or perhaps Sei Itō had reached a certain limit, but the murderous intent and pressure that had no effect on Sei Itō suddenly changed. An indescribable ghost-like howl echoed in the ruins, piercing straight into one's heart and causing Sei Itō's mind to become restless. At the same time, he felt as if something had come out from the depths of the ruins. It was watching Sei Itō's every move from the depths of the ruins.
Sei Itō could not afford to be careless. He was afraid that if he moved, he would trigger a tsunami-like attack.
Just like that, Sei Itō was in a deadlock with the existence in the depths of the ruins. Time slowly passed. The cornerstone in his hand began to flicker with light. A slight cracking sound came from the cornerstone. Yi Tengcheng knew that the cornerstone had reached its limit.
Sei Itō took a deep breath and gently took half a step back. Who would have thought that as soon as Sei Itō moved, countless ghost-like shadows suddenly appeared in the depths of the ruins. They were so fast that they appeared in front of Sei Itō in the blink of an eye and attacked the barrier that was on the verge of collapse.
"Crackle, crackle!" Waves of crashing sounds echoed in the ruins.
Itsunari didn't care about anything else. He quickly walked back to the original road without thinking. However, the ghost-like shadows did not let Sei Itō go and continued to chase after him.
At this moment, Sei Itō finally had some time to look at the things that were attacking him. These shadows were like black fog and exuded a cold and strange aura. They were like ghosts from hell and did not have any form. It was as if a howl from the bottom of their hearts echoed around them.
Sei Itō used his fastest speed to run a certain distance. The cornerstone in his hand finally could not bear the burden and shattered into a pile of useless stones. It fell from Sei Itō's hand and scattered on the ground.
At this moment, Sei Itō quickly waved his hands and took out talismans one by one. Under the control of his spiritual power, they floated around Sei Itō like yellow ribbons.
The black shadows did not care about what was in front of Sei Itō and attacked Sei Itō crazily. However, every time they touched a talisman, a dim yellow light would be ignited. At the same time, black smoke and screams would appear around the shadows.
"Are these really ghosts?!" Sei Itō thought uncertainly. Although there were all kinds of strange things in the Hunter's World and ghosts were not uncommon, basically no one had seen them before. Even those who had unique telekinesis related to the soul were rare. He did not expect to encounter a bunch of them here.
However, Yi Tengcheng knew that this wasn't the time to think about this. It was better to leave this place first. These talisman papers were all his belongings. If these talisman papers were used up, then he really wouldn't know what to do.
Sei Itō used his maximum speed, but the black shadows did not seem to have an upper limit. They followed closely behind and used up the yellow talismans on Sei Itō's body one by one. By the time he was about to leave the ruins, Sei Itō had no protection on him.
"Damn it!" Sei Itō cursed in a low voice. His hands quickly formed the Peacock Seal, the Bright King Seal, and the Vajra Seal. He chanted a mantra and endured the damage and mental torture caused by the black shadows. He used the highest level of Yin Yang Technique he had learned and could use — Wrath of the Bright King Curse.
In an instant, Sei Itō's body emitted a bright light. It was like a flame that forced the black shadows back. Some of the light flames burned on the black shadows. The flames were rootless and attached to the black shadows like maggots on their bones, burning them. The black shadows let out inhuman screams, causing Sei Itō's mind to be in chaos. His mind was filled with fantasies.
Fortunately, Sei Itō's willpower was firm. He quickly rushed out of the ruins and bathed in the sunlight. Sei Itō finally felt a bit comfortable. He panted as he turned around to look at the black shadows lingering at the entrance of the ruins.
He saw that the flames that were attached to the black shadows had already spread out. It was like a fire burning fiercely in the void. However, no matter how much the flames burned, the black shadows still did not die. They were still fiercely struggling and howling.
Sei Itō saw that they would not be able to leave the ruins. Only then did he relax. He quickly distanced himself from the ruins and rested to check the wounds on his body.
After checking his body, Sei Itō was given a fright. He saw that the places where the black shadows had attacked were black and wrinkled. It was as if they had lost their vitality. Moreover, when his spiritual force flowed through those places, it would suddenly weaken as if it had disappeared into thin air. Fortunately, Sei Itō's power system was not supported by his spiritual force alone. As his spiritual force flowed through his body, his flesh and blood were instantly nourished. Traces of itchiness flowed through his body, and his skin began to regain some luster.
Sei Itō took out the Rejuvenation Talisman that he had mass-produced and threw it on his body to speed up his recovery.
"It looks like these ruins are not simple. It is just that it is impossible to enter with my current strength. Also, from the abilities of these black shadows, there might be even more terrifying creatures inside. I am still too weak." Sei Itō thought to himself and helplessly sighed. He originally thought that he had become a first-rate expert in this short world, so he was a bit proud of himself. However, this trip to the ruins had shattered his confidence.
However, this was also good. At least he would not become arrogant and would not get carried away and put himself in danger in the future.
When his body had more or less recovered, Sei Itō stood up and looked back at the ruins. He finally decided to end this trip as a hunter and return to the main world.
"There are still many things that I need to learn!"
After tricking the hunters, he would return in the future.
