"The place Dynasty went to was called the Luotian Sect. They wanted to loot the place, but the people from the Luotian Sect awakened the human immortals who sealed themselves. The most powerful one was an old Taoist priest whose combat strength was almost on imperial-level purple gold-rank. He killed half of Dynasty's powerhouses with a single move. In the end, the Seventh Prince used his life-saving technique and managed to escape with the other five people … "
Bloody told Lin Huang the information that it had retrieved from the people's brains when they returned to the inn.
"As expected, there are still human immortals in this world!" Lin Huang was secretly glad that he did not expose himself. "Since the human immortals from the Luotian Sect are still alive, it means that there might be human immortals from the other sects who are still alive."
"There might even be demigods and powerhouses who are even more powerful," Bloody added.
"Do the governors and deputy governors in these cities have anything to do with the sects?" Lin Huang asked again.
"Yes, many of the commanders of the immortal guards are from the sects. Only a minority of them are independent cultivators." Bloody obtained the information from the plump young man who had retrieved the governor's brain.
"Is there any other useful information?"
"There's a very strange doomsday prophecy that Fatso Jr. retrieved from the governor's brain." Bloody thought about it and decided to tell Lin Huang about it.
"Tell me about it."
"When the mysterious thunder appears, a disaster will come. When a phenomenon appears, heaven and earth will be in chaos. " Bloody told him about the 12-word prophecy. "I think it might just be a saying passed down by the ancient people. It doesn't mean anything."
Lin Huang thought about it for a while but he could not figure it out. He soon put it aside and did not delve into it.
Two days passed by in the blink of an eye.
Tan Lang and the rest returned late at night. The ten of them from the Heaven Alliance gathered again.
After distributing the loot, Tang Ning told them about the information that she had gathered throughout the past few days with a strange expression on her face.
"The government residence has received a couple of strange news throughout the past few days."
"A town in the east has disappeared into thin air. A few places in the north of the government residence, Northernmost City, are haunted. In the south of the government residence, Luo Hua City, there was a sudden snowstorm. In just one night, the entire government residence was completely covered in snow. Also, in the desolate wilderness to the west, a town suddenly appeared out of thin air … "
Hearing Tangning's words, Lin Huang's heart skipped a beat. He clearly remembered that one of the two sentences in the prophecy was, "Strange phenomena will appear, and the world will be in chaos."
"Can you be more specific?" Lin Huang quickly asked. "What do you mean by the town disappearing into thin air?"
"All the buildings and residents of the entire town disappeared into thin air. There's only an empty space left, as if it had never existed. "
"The situation in the west is the exact opposite. A town suddenly appeared out of thin air, and there are more than a hundred thousand people in the town, including warriors and cultivators. According to the locals, they had been living there for generations for tens of thousands of years. But cultivators often come to that area to hunt, and they all say that they have never seen that town, and they are very sure that that area has always been an empty field. "
"As for the haunting in Northernmost City, we still haven't found out the reason. There's a family that hears a baby crying every day. The crying happens at random times, and most of the time, it comes from a small room. The cultivators there have checked, but they couldn't find anything unusual. There's another family that has people moving around every now and then. Those people seem to be just images that can't be captured. There's another family that's even weirder. Every day, when it's time to eat, the smell of all sorts of food will come from the kitchen. Sometimes, it's roasted meat, sometimes, it's stewed soup, and sometimes, the smell of steamed rice … "
"Also, there's the snowstorm in Luo Hua City. It went on quietly for a night and buried the entire city. Only the third floor of a few three-story buildings wasn't completely covered by the snow. Fortunately, it's just normal snow, so there were no casualties. "
Tan Lang and the rest were not too bothered after hearing Tangning's news.
Lin Huang was the only one who frowned as he kept thinking about the prophecy.
"Lin Xie, are you alright?" Tan Lang soon noticed that something was wrong with Lin Huang.
Lin Huang hesitated for a moment, but he decided to tell them about the prophecy.
"When I was at the library in Gushan City, I came across an ancient book by accident. There were two sentences in it …" Lin Huang told them half of the truth. He told them that he had read the prophecy from an ancient book.
"When the mysterious thunder appears, a disaster will come. Strange phenomena will appear, and heaven and earth will be in chaos … "Tan Lang and the rest could not help but frown when they heard that.
"Strange phenomena … Could it be referring to the current situation?" Shen Tao could not help but ask.
"I think it's possible." Lin Huang nodded.
"Now that you mentioned it, I suddenly recalled that when I received the news about the strange phenomena from the other government residences, one of the deputy governors was there too. The expression on his face was a little strange at that time, and he left immediately after receiving the news. "Tangning frowned." I suspect that the governor and the deputy governor might know something. "
"I'll ask around later." Tan Lang faintly felt that this matter was not as simple as it seemed. "Is there any other news?"
"There's another important piece of news." Tangning nodded in all seriousness.
"A sect called the Luotian Sect was attacked. According to the description, it's most likely the people from Dynasty who did that." Tangning paused as she spoke to this point. "I heard that the attack caused such a huge commotion that all of the Luotian Sect's patriarchs were unsealed. More than 20 human immortals were born. The people from Dynasty have disappeared for the past few days. They might have been wiped out. "
"Dynasty's people were wiped out?!" Tan Lang and the rest were stunned to hear that.
"With the abilities of the people from Dynasty, they might not be wiped out even if they encounter an imperial-level yellow gold-rank powerhouse. I'm afraid there might be powerhouses who are on par with imperial-level white gold-rank or even imperial-level purple gold-rank among the human immortals. "Tan Lang knew very well about the overall abilities of the Seventh Prince and the people from Dynasty." It seems like this world is more complicated than we thought. "
"These sects shouldn't be unreasonable people. As long as we build a good relationship with the government residence, the possibility of them attacking us shouldn't be high." Lin Huang had some understanding of these sects from the memory that Bloody retrieved. "If they're not easy to talk to, we'll just leave this foggy world and try not to fight them."
"That's what I thought too." Tan Lang nodded. "The Fallen God Land ruins are huge anyway. We have other places to explore."
"That's it then. I'll ask the governor about the phenomenon tomorrow morning." Tan Lang soon made further arrangements. "Six of us and the Herculean King will be enough for tomorrow's hunt. We'll leave two more people in the government residence for safety. Who wants to stay? "
"I'll stay. I have strong senses." Li Jia was the first to suggest.
"I'll stay too." Shen Tao volunteered to stay as well.
"Sure, Li Jia and Shen Tao will be in charge of the government residence's safety. Lin Xie and Tangning will stay put. The rest and the Herculean King will follow me to hunt."
