Above the gray fog

"Where did all the people living in this city go?"

"How did those Jiuqu people die just now?"

With doubts in his heart, Lin Shan continued to go deeper inside.

"Hiss~", "Hiss~", "Hiss~".

A strange sound came into Lin Shan's ears.

Lin Shan stopped and spread his mental power outward, searching for the source of the sound.

In the dark building complex, there were "cubes" rolling on the ground.

There were red cracks on these cubes, and a faint scarlet light was emitted between the cracks, as if the cubes were breathing.

The cubes rolled quickly in the direction of Lin Shan, and with the cracks opening and closing, they made a hissing sound. They rolled very fast and surrounded Lin Shan in a blink of an eye.

The cubes stopped in place, and only heard the sound of "clicking". All the cubes began to deform and became spider-shaped objects. Lin Shan did not feel the breath of life on them. These spiders transformed from cubes... were not living things.

There are red lines on the spiders, as if they are breathing, flashing, and narrow eyes are embedded in the small and ferocious head.

The eyes emit a chilling light, which is even more terrifying in the dark environment.

"What is this?" Lin Shan noticed that there is a pattern mark on the forelimbs of these spiders, which is in the shape of two hands clasped together, weaving into a weird gesture.

Looking at the mark similar to LOG, Lin Shan secretly said: "These things are created by humans."

"Hiss~"

The spiders stopped in front of Lin Shan, making a series of "hissing" sounds, as if communicating.

At a certain moment.

They seemed to have received an order and rushed towards Lin Shan together.

The size of a single spider is not large, less than 20 centimeters in size, but the number is densely packed. Looking forward, the range of vision is hazy red light.

"Bang~, bang~"

At the moment when the spiders pounced, Lin Shan shook the rattle in his hand.

Waves of invisible sound waves swept away the spiders that pounced on them. The spiders crashed into the walls of the surrounding buildings and broke into pieces. The scarlet light in their eyes disappeared and they remained motionless, as if they had lost power.

The rattle was originally a defensive monster. Its ability was to defend and counterattack. It did not have the ability of "sound attack". What it shook out was just pure spirituality. This wave directly cleared all the spiders within a radius of one kilometer.

Taking advantage of the gap, Lin Shan ran again. Not long after running, he was surrounded by nearby spiders again.

The roads in front, behind, left and right were all surrounded.

Lin Shan was not afraid of these spiders. He just didn't want to waste precious spirituality on these weak spiders.

After thinking about it, Lin Shan took out the sickle sword.

Without waiting for the spiders to attack, Lin Shan waved the sickle sword in his hand.

A circular sword light quickly spread to the surroundings with Lin Shan as the center.

The spiders within a radius of one kilometer were cleared again.

Not only that, all the spiders touched by the sword light were ignited with black flames, and the spiders rushing behind were also ignited when they came into contact with the flames.

The flame with cursed properties is a derivative ability of the sickle sword, and its effect is only one, that is, burning spirituality.

The subsequent flames do not need to consume spirituality, and can continue to burn with the spirituality of the target until they are forcibly extinguished or all the targets disappear.

Although these spiders have no spirituality, they have the breath of source energy.

As the basic unit of spiritual particles, source energy particles can also be burned by the cursed flames of the sickle sword.

There is no need to treat strange things as items. They have independent blue bars that can be restored by themselves, and do not need to supply spirituality. They can be regarded as independent extraordinary things. Various abilities can adapt to different environments. This is why Lin Shan, even though he is sequence 6, always carries a sequence 7 strange thing with him.

Sometimes, if the ability is used correctly, it can also achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Just like now.

The fire spread rapidly, and in tens of seconds, the surroundings have turned into a sea of ​​fire.

The area of ​​the sea of ​​fire was still spreading, gradually clinging to the buildings. Some buildings that were across the sky kept falling, making huge noises, which was particularly shocking in the silent darkness.

Lin Shan extinguished the cursed flame on his arm. This was a side effect of the sickle sword. Even if he was promoted to Sequence 6, he could not avoid it. His own spirituality was also burned by the cursed flame. This part was very small for him, about 1% of the total.

When a sequence 7 used the sickle sword, he would hurt the enemy 1,000 times and lose 100 of his own energy. After being promoted to Sequence 6, he would hurt the enemy 1,000 times and lose 10 of his own energy.

The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and it was out of Lin Shan's control. Everything here was attached to the source energy. For the cursed flame... it could burn everything here.

Maybe it was a bit too much. Lin Shan felt a little uneasy. He didn't expect... just one sword would set the sole of the foot of the entire vulgar god statue on fire.

Holding the sickle sword tightly in his hand, Lin Shan shuttled through the sea of ​​fire.

With the sickle sword in his hand, he could control these flames slightly, at least they would not burn him.

In the sea of ​​fire.

Lin Shan put the sketch in his hand into the storage space. Not far ahead, he would reach the lifting area, from which he could enter the next platform.

The fire had been burning for half a month and had not stopped. Lin Shan also walked on the foot for half a month.

He seemed to have accidentally encountered a bug.

In the past few days of walking in the sea of ​​fire, he found that the buildings here all have the function of automatic recovery.

Every day, the burned buildings will be restored to their original state, and then re-ignited by the cursed fire, and this cycle will repeat. It is because of this mechanism that the fire can continue to burn for so many days.

The automatic recovery of the building must be consuming some energy. Lin Shan has not found the source of this energy yet, and it should involve a deeper form of energy utilization.

There are black blocks everywhere. Lin Shan can kick many of them when walking. They are also like the buildings here. They are restored once a day, and then they will soon be burned out of their source energy by the cursed fire and lose their ability to move.

The parchment has completely failed. If you use divination, nothing else... The consumed spirituality can drain him dry. Without the help of external forces, Lin Shan can only walk forward aimlessly, looking for the elevator structure on the sketch.

"Huhuhu~"

After walking for most of the day, the cursed fire in front of him showed strange changes, and the black flames fled upwards frantically.

It seemed to be sucked away by a huge suction force.

Lin Shan looked up and breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally, he was on the right track. He had already reached the ankle of the statue. Could the huge suction force in front be the elevator marked on the sketch?

Lin Shan was stunned and looked up again, his expression gradually becoming weird.

There was a huge spider perched above him. Because of its huge size, he could not see the whole picture and ignored it.

Unlike those small spiders, this mountain-like spider has a breath of life. It is a living thing.

This spider-like monster... is it a mythical beast guarding the passage?
