After killing the two beasts, Lin Jin's next attack was aimed at the Beast God's priest.
The priest was strong enough to be close to immortal realm. With his three pet beasts, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he could do whatever he wanted in Middle Earth.
Still, it was the same thing.
To Lin Jin who had just returned from an alien land, this Beast God's priest was nothing.
At best, he was just a little more difficult to deal with. Lin Jin didn't even need to use his pet beast's strength. His breezy sword alone was enough to suppress him.
Lin Jin was sure that the priest wouldn't be able to withstand this attack. Hence, he immediately flew toward the Grassy Continent's army.
Something was off about the black fog. Lin Jin found it familiar but he couldn't put his finger on it. Hence, his top priority now was to save his companions.
Only after saving Shang'er and the others would Lin Jin feel at ease.
Lin Jin wondered if Shang'er had been captured by the Beast God's priest. After some analysis, Lin Jin didn't think it was possible.
This Beast God's priest was indeed powerful. He had multiple Rank 5 pet beasts and could even stand toe-to-toe with Daluo Temple's abbot.
However, Shang'er wasn't a pushover. Moreover, she had other helpers, including Goldy.
Most importantly, Goldy.
If Goldy went berserk, even Shang'er wouldn't be able to hold him down.
Logically speaking, even if Shang'er and Goldy couldn't defeat the Beast God's priest, they could at least be on par with him.
But in the end, Shang'er and the others were captured.
There was a huge problem here.
Firstly, Lin Jin had to save his companions. Secondly, he had to find out what was going on. Lin Jin felt that this was important because it might be able to answer all his questions.
The Clear Wind Demon Sword did not fail to fulfill its mission. With one strike, it broke through the strange worm's defense. With the second strike, it broke the bone staff that the Beast God Sect's priest was using to block the attack. With the third strike, it finally cut the priest into two.
Simultaneously, Lin Jin charged into the Grassy Continent's army.
One could only imagine how these soldiers could stop Lin Jin.
The moment the Visitation Hall's door opened behind Lin Jin, the pet beasts were all sprawled on the ground, not daring to move. The power of the beast's aura was now at its fullest.
Since the beginning, Lin Jin had been using a special method to locate Shang'er and the others. He only attacked because he was sure he could save them.
Now that he made his move, he had to succeed in one strike.
The fiery clouds swirled.
Lin Jin summoned Xiao Huo. Although it was a little overkill, he had to be safe in order to save a life. Hence, even if he had to use a cannon to kill a mosquito, Lin Jin would accept it.
Several minutes later, Xiao Huo had devoured thousands of lives and Lin Jin had finally rescued Shang'er and the others.
All of them, including Ye Yuzhou and Zuo Wentang, were locked in a huge prison cart made of bone. Most of them were unconscious, but their lives were not in danger.
Lin Jin breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that everyone was fine.
After waking Shang'er up, she couldn't hide the excitement in her eyes when she saw that it was Lin Jin.
"Master Lin, be careful of immortals!"
Immortals?
Lin Jin was stunned.
Shang'er had clearly seen the situation around them and warned them. However, this was the Central Plains, so how could there be immortals here? If anyone dared to come out, they would probably be immediately annihilated by the ninth-stage immortal-devouring beast in the Nine Heavens Profound World.
Hence, Lin Jin's first reaction was that it was impossible.
But in the next instant, Lin Jin suddenly remembered something. He looked up at the black fog that was about to close in on him, shrouding an area of more than ten miles.
He finally remembered.
Previously, he had thought this black fog looked familiar but he couldn't figure it out. But after combining it with Shang'er's words, Lin Jin finally figured out what this black fog looked like.
Other than its color, it was exactly the same as the miasma in the foreign lands.
"This is bad!"
Lin Jin's heart skipped a beat. Immediately, he performed a spell and pointed.
Cosmos Ink!
Boom! A huge black hole appeared out of thin air. With a wave of Lin Jin's sleeve, Shang'er and everyone else who was still trapped here were sucked into the black hole.
Lin Jin knew that if his speculation was correct, this black fog had the same effect as the miasma in the foreign lands.
It could isolate one's aura.
Simply put, it was to prevent the Rank 9 immortal-devouring beast from discovering them. Lin Jin finally understood why the Beast God Cult shaman summoned the black fog without hesitation when he saw Lin Jin and even tried to stall for time. So this was the reason.
Also, Lin Jin understood why Shang'er and Goldy were defeated so thoroughly. After all, no matter how powerful Shang'er and Goldy were, they couldn't possibly be an immortal's match.
In other words, they were defeated by an immortal.
Although the Grassy Continent's five-nation allied army was impressive with hundreds of thousands of soldiers and beasts, that wasn't the main point.
Those who wanted to deal with Lin Jin knew very well that they couldn't win with just this.
Their real trump card was the immortal who would soon appear with the black fog.
There was actually something like this?
Lin Jin was dumbfounded. Regardless of the outcome, the people who wanted to deal with him were truly resourceful to think of something like this.
No.
Not only could they deal with Lin Jin, but as long as this black fog shrouded the sky, Heartland would be invincible.
It was because of this that Lin Jin immediately used a spell to rescue everyone and send them into the painting world. Because Lin Jin wasn't sure if the other party had other formations to prevent him from escaping.
Sure enough, after Lin Jin sent Shang'er and the others away, he was about to leave when he realized an invisible force had appeared out of thin air.
It was probably some kind of formation that seemed to have sealed off the entire place. Not only that, but the enemy's spell was so powerful that even those who were sent into the painting world by Lin Jin were forced out by this force.
Lin Jin's eyes widened at this sight.
The other party must have come prepared. No matter who it was, they were here to kill them all. Forget the fact that Lin Jin couldn't leave, even if he could, he couldn't.
"Blood Realm!"
With a flip of his palm, a blob of ghostly blood emerged from Lin Jin's palm. With a flick of his hand, the blob instantly expanded and enveloped Shang'er and the others like a giant cage.
It looked like a house made of blood. Vaguely, Lin Jin could see a few strange bugs swimming around in the blood.
The blood belonged to the ghostly blood beasts while the bugs belonged to the spirit devourer ghost insects.
This time, Lin Jin used his trump card. Anyone who dared to lay a hand on these people would suffer terrible consequences. Even an immortal, or even a true immortal, wouldn't stand a chance against the combination of the ghostly blood beasts and spirit devourer ghost insects.
Lin Jin was now sure that an immortal expert would show up soon. Since the enemy had sealed off the space and couldn't even use the painting world, Lin Jin knew that the enemy wasn't simple.
