When he noticed Hu Zhou's battered body, his expression changed abruptly as he hurriedly asked, "What happened to you? How did you get so badly injured? Where are your teammates?"
Seeing this situation, he seed to recall sothing, his face turning grave as he said, "Don't tell you led your team deep into Mist Island? I warned you before—never venture into the depths of Mist Island."
Hearing Fan Haixin's words, Hu Zhou wore a bitter expression and replied, "It's not what you think. It's a long story, so I'll keep it brief. We..."
One minute later.
After listening to Hu Zhou's account, Fan Haixin's expression darkened further. The situation was even more serious than he had imagined.
However, based on Hu Zhou's description, he could confirm who had saved him.
At this thought, Fan Haixin said, "I truly didn't expect you to encounter sothing like this. Fortunately, you ran into Shura. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable. From the looks of it, Shura is even more formidable than I thought. His strength must definitely surpass Level 4."
When Hu Zhou heard Fan Haixin ntion a na, a look of surprise crossed his face. "Who is Shura? Is that the na of the person who saved ?"
At the ti, he had been too overwheld to ask Luo Feng's na before they parted ways. Thus, he had no idea what his savior was called.
Fan Haixin pondered for a mont before replying, "Yes, that's him—Shura. I..."
anwhile, inside Mist Island, after walking for about half an hour, Luo Feng and the others finally arrived at a different location.
They stood before a forest.
Throughout their journey, Luo Feng's group had encountered no danger whatsoever—not even a small animal, let alone a single ghoul. This starkly contrasted with the widespread belief that Mist Island was extrely perilous.
This didn't surprise Luo Feng, however.
It was likely that the escaped Black Ghouls had devoured all the animals and White Ghosts in the area. This realization further underscored the terrifying nature of the Black Ghouls.
If these Black Ghouls remained confined to Mist Island, it wouldn't be so bad. But if they ever escaped and entered the outside world, they would bring unimaginable disaster to humanity.
Creatures that could eat anything and rapidly grow stronger were truly horrifying to contemplate. Weren't they even more terrifying than zombies?
Even if Luo Feng didn't care about humanity, he had to think about his own pockets.
Every Black Ghoul contained a Mist Crystal within its body—an irresistible temptation for Luo Feng.
Just as Luo Feng was lost in thought, Tang Xuewei suddenly spoke up beside him, "Luo Feng, Xiao Bai just told sothing. There are so very strange creatures in this forest, and they're incredibly powerful. Even at its peak, Xiao Bai would have faced obstacles passing through here. However, this is the shortest route to the Soul-Bewitching Fruit. If you'd rather not take this path, we can detour—it just ans going the long way around."
Luo Feng was slightly taken aback by Tang Xuewei's words. If he rembered correctly, when they had encountered White Tiger earlier, it had been at level 4 strength.
Even a level 4 White Tiger had faced so obstacles—clearly, there was sothing unusual about this forest.
However, Luo Feng wasn't the type to be afraid.
If a level 4 White Tiger could enter, how could he possibly fail?
With that thought, he smiled and said, "Let's go, we're pressing forward. I don't have ti to take detours. If any creatures here dare provoke , we'll see if I don't set this entire forest ablaze."
As he spoke, Luo Feng led the way into the forest, followed closely by the two won and White Tiger.
Once inside, they were imdiately enveloped by an eerie atmosphere. The forest was deathly silent—not a single sound could be heard. There was no sign of danger, nor any movent at all. The stillness was unsettlingly unnatural.
At that mont, Tang Xuewei whispered very softly, "Xiao Bai says we should pay attention to the trees. Most of the creatures here are flying ones. So may not be very strong in attack power, but their cries are extrely irritating."
Hearing this, Luo Feng quietly activated his Clairvoyance Charm. In this mist-filled environnt, not using it would indeed be inconvenient.
Just as the thought crossed his mind and before his vision fully adjusted, a sudden bark grabbed everyone's attention.
"Woof! Woof! Woof!"
A dog's bark? Here?
Could soone actually be keeping dogs in this place? That didn't make any sense.
They all tensed, scanning the surrounding undergrowth warily, afraid a wild dog might leap out and ambush them. After all, even among humans, many lacked martial virtue—let alone animals, which had no concept of it whatsoever.
Not daring to delay, Luo Feng imdiately used the Clairvoyance Charm to inspect the bushes, searching for the source of the bark. First, he needed to determine the dog's level. If it was low-level, there was nothing to worry about. As long as it wasn't above level 4, Luo Feng could handle it.
But after scanning the area, he found no trace of any dog.
Had they imagined it? That couldn't be possible. Luo Feng knew whether he was hearing things or not.
Could it be... the legendary Dog-Shaped Ghost? A ghost in the form of a dog? Such entities rged with the mist, rendering even the Clairvoyance Charm useless. In that state, they beca indistinguishable from the mist itself. If Luo Feng tried to see through the mist, he'd also see through the ghost. This proved the Clairvoyance Charm wasn't omnipotent.
Just as Luo Feng was pondering how to lure out the Dog-Shaped Ghost, White Tiger suddenly let out a roar toward the sky.
Startled by the sound, Luo Feng's expression changed as if struck by a realization. He quickly looked up—and what he saw nearly made his heart stop.
The sight before him defied all his previous experiences. Luo Feng was no stranger to grand, perilous scenes, but this... this was beyond anything he'd ever witnessed.
However, this was the first ti he had seen such a situation in reality.
He actually saw a bird silently flying toward them.
If it were just a Common bird, Luo Feng wouldn't have been so surprised.
The main thing was—this bird's head wasn't a bird's head.
Its head was a dog's head.
