Ye Chen walked to a cultivator and asked with a smile, "Fellow, may I know what demonic beast everyone is looking for?"
"Hmm?"
The man looked at Ye Chen and realized that it was the guy who had caused trouble earlier.
"So, it's you!"
The man lowered his guard when he recalled how the City Governor had treated Ye Chen earlier.
"You probably don't know yet, but we're looking for the ultimate demonic beast of this hunt. Whether the hunt is successful or not depends on who will be the champion. It all depends on who can catch it."
"What demonic beast is that?"
"It's called the Void Breaker Beast. No one has told me what it looks like."
"Why?"
"Don't you understand? That's because those who have seen it are all dead."
"Huh?"
Ye Chen was speechless. The man gave such an old-fashioned answer.
"Void Breaker Beast? Is this demonic beast related to the space rule?"
"I'm not sure about that. I only know that's its name. As for its cultivation base and ability, it's hard to say."
"Thank you!"
"You're welcome!"
The man turned around and continued to look forward after saying that, waiting for news from the person holding the compass.
Ye Chen returned to the patriarch and told him what he knew.
"Yes, I think the demonic beast really controls some kind of space rule and is restricting our movements," the patriarch said.
"That's right. I think so too."
Ye Chen looked around and closed his eyes to sense. Although his instinct told him that something was wrong, he could not sense the source.
"This Void Breaker Beast might like to hide itself."
"Is that so? That's troublesome."
"Don't worry. Let's wait for news from the person holding the compass."
"Alright!"
The three of them followed the crowd and continued to observe the movement in front.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!
Suddenly, the person in front stopped. Ye Chen realized that the compass was shaking and the needle had lost its direction. It kept bumping around.
"Oh no, there's something wrong with the compass. The Void Breaker Beast might be around!"
The person shouted.
"Be on guard!"
Everyone held onto their weapons, ready to fight.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Suddenly, a gust of wind appeared in the surrounding space, sweeping up a Mana atmosphere, causing the visibility of the surrounding space to become very low.
"Patriarch, Wushuang, watch out!"
"Alright!"
The three of them were on guard.
Ye Chen condensed Qi on his sword finger and released a wisp of Demonic Psyche into the surrounding space.
This Demonic Sense hid within the space and blended in with the environment. Even Magical Beasts would not be able to detect the difference.
As the Demonic Psyche continued to enter this space, Ye Chen's sensing ability also extended. This was true sensing ability, which was much more reliable than sensing through energy. It was as if he was there.
Ye Chen felt that there was definitely some kind of energy hidden in the surrounding space. The controller of this energy was observing them, hiding in the darkest place.
"Chi!"
Suddenly, there was a strange sound.
"Ah, ah!"
A cultivator kept screaming. Everyone looked over and found that there was a black thing on his neck. That thing was constantly moving, trying to enter his neck.
"Save me, save, save …"
That person's body kept spinning, shouting for help. Then, that person closed his mouth, and his eyes widened like bronze bells.
"What happened? What happened to you?"
Many people asked him, but he didn't say a word.
"Back off!"
The man with the compass shouted.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"
Everyone retreated, but there were also people who could not retreat in time and were hit on the spot.
"Ah, ah, ah!"
The screams were endless. Black things kept bursting out from that person's eyes, nose, and ears. When it encountered a stranger, it would stick to them and control their mind.
"Oh no, it's the Demon Eye Worm. We're surrounded."
No one knew who cried out, but it immediately caused everyone's expressions to change.
"Demon Eye Worm?"
Ye Chen was wondering what it was. However, judging from the way these guys attacked, they could quickly control a person's nervous system and then become their puppet.
"Dong, dong, dong!"
The person who was infected by the Demon Eye Worm kept walking toward them. Both his eyes were bulging, and his mouth and ears were already rotten, beginning to emit green liquid. Such a terrifying state almost made many people vomit.
"This is too disgusting. What is this thing?"
"Kill him!"
Someone could not hold it in anymore. He pulled out his sword and slashed forward.
"Chi!"
The sword slashed across, and a bloody wound appeared on that person's body.
"Chi, chi, chi!"
Following that, the bloody wound continued to split open. Suddenly, black liquid burst out from the wound and sprayed directly on the person who had attacked.
"Ah!"
The person cried out in pain. The black liquid kept corroding his skin. Following that, the person's figure began to hunch. His movements were very strange, like a zombie.
"Don't kill infected people at will!"
Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, Ye Chen shouted.
"Hmm?"
Everyone turned around and saw that it was Ye Chen. They all knew that Ye Chen was being courteously received by the City Lord, so they all moved toward him.
"Fellow Ye, what should we do?"
"Yeah, this is the first time we've seen this thing. How should we deal with it?"
Many people began to ask Ye Chen for a solution.
Looking at everyone's eager eyes, Ye Chen sneered in his heart. These people were so useless.
"Get out of the way, let me see!"
"Yes!"
The crowd made way for him. Ye Chen walked to the front and faced the infected person.
"Ugh, ugh, ugh!"
The person had already fallen into a state of chaos. His entire person became very strange. He began to shout, but his voice was like that of a wild beast or a dead person. It was difficult to distinguish.
"Whoosh!"
Ye Chen condensed his sword energy and pointed at the person.
"Chi!"
The sword energy pierced through the person's body. Immediately, everyone turned pale with fright. Was this not courting death?
Those people retreated, not wanting to be corroded by the black liquid.
"Ah? Nothing happened? "
Everyone was stunned. Previously, someone had used a sword ray to slash and was corroded by the black liquid. Now, Ye Chen was fine after releasing sword energy. What was the meaning of this?
Many people were puzzled and went forward to ask Ye Chen.
"Fellow Ye, what's going on? Your sword energy didn't trigger the monster's backlash?"
"That's because I saw the infected core of this monster's body. He's already dead."
As he spoke, Ye Chen released a slight energy forward. The person fell to the ground with a bang and stopped moving. At the same time, the person's body rapidly corroded, turning into a black, petroleum-like liquid.
"True Samadhi Fire!"
Seizing the opportunity, Ye Chen released the True Samadhi Fire and destroyed the infected on the spot.
"Roar, roar, roar!"
In the flames, the infected source kept shouting, trying to escape but it was useless. Soon, it was burned to ashes by the True Samadhi Fire.
