C1953 The Fog of the Ancient City

Yun Duoduo looked at the furry little beast and asked in surprise, "Mr. Gu Yuan, what is this?"

Gu Yuan looked at it carefully and said, "I don't know either. This thing is a bit like a fox in our Abandoned Land of Gods. Let's go and take a look."

Seeing Gu Yuan getting closer and closer, the little beast struggled intensely in excitement.

At this moment, a world-shaking roar came from afar. It seemed to be urging the little critter.

The little critter let out a sharp cry and then lowered its head to bite off its tail.

With half of its bloody tail, it ran towards the wall of the upper house without even turning back, leaving traces of blood on the ground.

Gu Yuan kept the Royal Forest Blade, wiping the blood on the ground as he sized up the broken tail on the ground.

It seemed like this ancient city was not peaceful either. That roar just now must have come from the mouth of some Ferocious Beast.

The Ferocious Beast could control the little beast, but it didn't attack Gu Yuan.

Gu Yuan guessed that perhaps this Ferocious Beast was guarding a certain spiritual herb, making it inconvenient for it to leave.

Or, this Ferocious Beast was already trapped somewhere and could not leave as it wished.

The unknown existence behind him made Gu Yuan even more anxious to collect this herb from the ancient city.

At the moment when he didn't know what kind of existence it was, he had been wandering around in the vicinity.

Gu Yuan only hoped that he could find the spiritual herb as soon as possible.

Only in this way could he bring Yun Duoduo out of this desolate ancient city as soon as possible.

The two of them continued to walk on the desolate streets.

This time, he let Yun Duoduo walk in front.

The distance between him and Yun Duoduo did not exceed an arm.

Gu Yuan was in charge of covering the rear and investigating the surrounding situation.

Just like that, the two of them carefully searched along the way.

At the same time, they were guarding against that unknown existence.

At the same time, they searched for a place where the spiritual medicines could grow.

Until a certain moment, Yun Duoduo suddenly stopped in her tracks.

"Mr. Gu Yuan, what do you think that is?"

As Yun Duoduo spoke, she even raised her arm and waved her finger.

Gu Yuan, who had been paying attention to what was behind him, almost bumped into her.

Gu Yuan, who had stopped in a hurry, finally turned his head and knew the reason why Yun Duoduo suddenly stopped walking.

He followed Duo Duo's arm and looked over. His eyes lit up and he said in surprise,

"Glazed Tile Grass! Isn't this the spiritual herb Chen Shu mentioned?"

Yun Duoduo was also very happy. "Then what are we waiting for? Go and pick it!"

"Wait a minute, Duo Duo." Gu Yuan held Yulin's sword and looked around.

Yun Duoduo stopped and asked in confusion, "What's wrong, Mr. Gu Yuan? Is there something wrong?"

Gu Yuan nodded. He did feel that there was something wrong with the surroundings. It was strangely quiet.

Logically speaking, there should be a guarding Ferocious Beast nearby, but there was nothing at all.

Even the little critter that had been harassing them and the roaring Ferocious Beast behind the little critter did not appear.

A plant that was like a transparent glaze was on a small mound less than twenty meters in front of them.

They could not tell what danger was nearby at all.

Gu Yuan could judge the appearance and characteristics of this plant from the looks and characteristics of it. This was what Chen Shu said about the spiritual herb that grew in the abandoned ancient city, the Glaze Grass.

This was really, finding it by stepping on iron shoes and searching everywhere. It didn't take much effort to find it.

He never would have thought that this Glazed Grass would be discovered by the two of them before he even reached the south of the city.

This Glazed Grass was a good thing!

The surroundings were indeed unusually quiet, but under their excited mood, the two of them seemed to have forgotten the fear of not being able to find a trace, and directly walked towards that spirit medicine.

Gu Yuan looked around vigilantly.

Yun Duoduo walked in front of the Glazed Grass, squatted down and stretched out her small white hand, planning to pick the Glazed Grass.

In the next second, she would be able to put the herb into her bag.

Gu Yuan even took out the small brocade box that contained the herb from the Hundred Treasure Bag, and was about to give it to Yun Duoduo.

Who would have thought that he would not wait for Yun Duoduo to take the medicine.

Suddenly, the originally dark sky suddenly turned dark red.

The sun disappeared without a trace and a blood red color covered the sky.

This sudden and terrifying scene stunned Gu Yuan and Yun Duoduo.

Gu Yuan pulled Yun Duoduo over and pulled her behind him. He took a step forward and stood in front of Yun Duoduo.

"Ah, my god, how could this be? Mr. Gu Yuan, look, that herb is gone."

Yun Duoduo pointed at the bare mound in front of her and cried out in shock.

Gu Yuan heard Yun Duoduo's cry and quickly went forward to check. He saw that the mound that originally had the Glazed Grass was now empty.

Gu Yuan anxiously used Yulin's sword to dig the soil. He discovered that the soil on the mound had dried and solidified. There were no signs of plants growing on it at all.

Gu Yuan felt a little strange. He had clearly seen a spiritual herb growing here just now. Could it be an illusion?

Gu Yuan was somewhat unwilling to give up and started digging the nearby soil.

"Ah! Mr. Gu Yuan, look, what is this? "

Just as Gu Yuan was frantically digging the mound for the sake of finding the spiritual medicine, a cry from Yun Duoduo rang out. It made him feel something in his heart, and he immediately turned around.

He saw that the originally dried and flat ground around him started to flip up and down.

Green-grey hands with dark red blood stains crawled out from the ground and pushed the surrounding soil, trying to remove the things that covered them.2

Slowly, some of the soil layers were pushed open.

Gray "human-shaped creatures" started to crawl out of the ground. They stood up with their hands on the ground and staggered toward the two of them.

Their throats let out deep growls like wild beasts. They raised their hands forward and crazily rushed towards Gu Yuan and Yun Duoduo.

At the same time, in the surrounding houses, dark, bean-like candles lit up and emitted a blue light.

On both sides of the street, in the dilapidated houses that should have been empty, many pale figures appeared out of thin air at this moment, and there were noises and whispers coming from them.

Gradually, the whispers turned into mournful howls.

Countless gray-white figures struggled and began to rush out of the dilapidated houses.

They looked almost translucent, and their eyes were blood-red. They appeared in groups and rushed towards Gu Yuan and Yun Duoduo like a swarm of bees.

Such a scene was even more terrifying than the various Ferocious Beast that they had encountered before. Yun Duoduo was on the verge of breaking down.

She cried and hid behind Gu Yuan.

Gu Yuan was also shocked by the scene in front of him and opened his mouth wide.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed it.

In an abandoned ancient city, there were actually so many undead hidden, just like the zombie movie he saw on Earth.

Could it be that the reason this ancient city was abandoned was because the undead occupied the world of the living?

However, didn't Yun Duoduo previously say that the sect's secret realm couldn't have an ancient city? Then where did this ancient city come from?

Although he had thousands of doubts in his heart, Gu Yuan didn't dare to slow down his movements at all.
