"What's going on?"
Gounières raised his palm with difficulty.
His entire body was like an old rusty machine. Gounières tried his best to raise his palm to his chest, unable to move any further.
"My body is very strong, but it's not listening to me anymore."
Gounières's face became gloomier.
Meanwhile, the noisy human-faced lantern was slowly approaching them.
Many human-faced lanterns were shouting that they wanted to eat Gounières, and some were threatening not to escape.
Gounières quickly manipulated the Origin Energy, the Blood Sea, and the power of the Wind Spirit to get himself out of this strange situation.
The Origin Energy seemed to have lost its effect at this moment.
The failure of the Origin Energy greatly reduced Gounières's casting of spells.
With a thought, Gounières's soul force directly drew the Origin Energy of the surrounding heaven and earth and gathered it into a Great Thunder Flame Spell.
"Sizzle …"
The black lightning struck the human-faced lantern.
Other than shaking, the lantern was not injured at all.
Ignoring my spell?
This strange scene made Gounières even more vigilant.
Immediately after, Gounières released another Demon Submerged Corrosive Blade.
"Chi ~ ~"
The Demon Submerged Corrosive Blade pierced through, and the surface of the human-faced lantern bloomed with ripple-like patterns, safe and sound.
"As expected, the attack doesn't have much effect."
"Maybe it's not that it doesn't have any effect, but I don't have the corresponding means to restrain it."
After repeated attempts, there was not much effect, so Gounières stopped trying.
He began to activate the power of the Blood Sea and the power of the Wind Spirit.
When Gounières's Blood Sea power bloomed.
"Hualala …"
As the power of the Blood Sea surged in the surrounding space, Gounières, who was supported by the Blood Sea, seemed to have lubricant added to his joints, and his entire body could move.
He tried to take a step. Although his body was still like a machine, Gounières could already move.
"Huff huff huff …"
Next, Gounières's Wind Spirit Wings unfurled from his back, and an extremely dense Wind Spirit Energy enveloped Gounières.
Gounières's body slowly rose from the ground.
Gounières heaved a sigh of relief.
Being able to fly was a rare piece of good news.
With the surge of Wind Spirit Energy, Gu Nie flew in the opposite direction from where the human-faced lantern had come from.
The speed of the human-faced lantern was only slightly faster than an ordinary person running at full speed.
On the other hand, Gounières was much faster than the human-faced lanterns.
However, Gounières did not think that everything was fine just because he was faster than his opponent.
Instead, his frown deepened.
This was because Gounières had already noticed that many lanterns in all directions had noticed the commotion and were gathering towards Gounières.
As he flew, Gounières quickly considered the situation in his mind.
"According to the information I've received, as well as the information I received from Senior Sukra.
"This place called the Shadow Shepherd's Lantern Isle is not within the range of the Ancient God Emoko Mountain Region.
"There is also no relevant information recorded that this Shadow Shepherd's Lantern Isle is in a strange and bizarre environment.
"But as soon as I arrived, I fell into this bizarre scene."
"Yes, this is something that has never appeared in the information before."
"Did something happen to the Shadow Shepherd's Lantern Isle?" Gounières frowned slightly.
"That should be it.
"Earlier, I didn't feel any sort of power enveloping me. Even my recovery was relatively normal.
"But when these strange human-faced lanterns discovered me, I was somewhat unable to control myself. Did some sort of strange power imprison me?
"Or could it be that this Shadow Shepherd's Lantern Isle has already become like this, and after I came in, that strange power imperceptibly influenced me?"
After thinking about it for a while, Gounières didn't have much of a clue.
"Fortunately, I'm fast enough now. If I spend a little more time, I can slowly shake them off.
"After I shake them off, I'll find a secluded place and recover my strength first. Right now, I only have half of my peak strength. Whether it's the power of the Blood Sea or the power of the Wind Spirit, I can only release half of my strength.
"Once my strength is fully recovered, my speed will at least increase by a large margin.
"When I encounter these strange lanterns again, at least I won't have to be too afraid of them.
"What I'm afraid of is …"
Gounières's eyes focused slightly, looking into the deep and oppressive boundless darkness.
"There are other strange creatures deep in this darkness."
With a strange existence like the human-faced lanterns, there was no guarantee that there wouldn't be other strange creatures.
With Gounières's current strength …
If he really did encounter a powerful strange creature, his chances of survival were not high.
As he thought about it, the Profound Meaning of Darkness gradually bloomed.
Gounières quickly became one with the darkness.
Although the effect wasn't very good, it at least allowed Gounières to avoid some potential dangers.
When he turned back to take a look, the human-faced lanterns were still chasing after Gounières relentlessly. Even though Gounières had become one with the darkness, they could still sense Gounières's exact location.
After putting some distance between them, Gounières calmed himself down slightly, and his Eye of Destiny opened slightly.
As the Eye of Destiny opened, the surrounding darkness and the world seemed to be covered with a layer of color.
Some areas were dark red like blood, which struck fear in people's hearts.
Some areas were crimson, which seemed to be filled with danger.
Some areas were light blue.
The deeper areas were dark blue, which made people feel comfortable.
The Eye of Destiny could detect danger. This was one of Gounières' techniques.
However, as Gounières's abilities increased, the Eye of Destiny's energy consumption also increased. Overall, it could be used much longer than before.
After activating the Eye of Destiny for more than ten seconds, Gounières felt his eyes sting.
Gounières immediately turned off the Eye of Destiny, and then flew towards a dark blue area.
However, even though he was flying towards a dark blue area, he was still very cautious.
Gounières didn't let his guard down.
The black leaves and fog on the Dark Shepherd Lantern Island were strange and weird. Who knew what dangers were hidden in the depths?
As he flew, Gounières used the Profound Meaning of the World as his own vision, and opened up a path for himself.
Gounières could see everything in an ordinary dark environment. It was no different from daytime.
Gounières's powerful vision didn't work at all. He was no different from an ordinary person in the dark.
Gounières's powerful vision didn't work here at all.
Only by using the World Essence could he see everything within a hundred meters of him clearly.
Gounières couldn't see anything further.
In the Dark Shepherd Lantern Island, his Profound Meaning of the World and the Profound Meaning of Darkness were greatly disrupted.
As he flew, he shook off the ten odd lanterns that were chasing him.
Gounières landed on a pile of rocks.
"I have to recover my abilities as soon as possible."
Gounières sat down cross-legged and started a new round of recovery.
