Chapter 89: Another Strange God?

At this moment,

Facing the panicked Miss Liuying,

Long Xingyun remained unmoved, only comforting her, "Miss Mei, please relax a bit. This is just an illusion affecting your mind, creating a kind of illusion."

Cheng Han's mouth twitched upon hearing this.

If the method of the illusion's killings is considered "devouring," then the term "pulling sensation" does indeed seem like an illusion.

He knew very well that the top human experts could suppress strange gods and it was impossible for them to be unaware of illusions.

However, this world was not an information age, and coupled with the fact that the spiritual realm was an isolated society, the speed of information circulation was extremely slow. Long Xingyun had limited information and thus had a mistaken understanding of the illusions.

A series of thoughts flashed through Cheng Han's mind as he quickly muttered, "Deduction!"

The illusion appeared:

Inside the illusion, there was a faint gray shadow hidden within the illusion, seemingly slowly opening.

It really was a gateway to another world!

Driven by fear, Miss Liuying instinctively sought support and stumbled towards Long Xingyun, reaching out to embrace his waist.

Seeing that she was just a weak woman and also quite attractive, Long Xingyun, out of some male instinct, did not avoid her.

He even extended a bear paw and patted Miss Liuying's back.

The next moment,

A terrifying scene unfolded.

The ever-changing illusion suddenly swelled up and turned into a black giant mouth, swallowing both of them in one go.

In the blink of an eye,

The illusion disappeared.

The place was empty.

After a moment,

The illusion turned into a bubble.

Cheng Han's expression changed slightly.

No!

He must save them!

Cheng Han decisively took two steps forward and shouted, "Slash!"

His mental power condensed into a knife and swiftly slashed towards the illusion.

It was the Soul-Shaking Slash.

This slash mobilized more mental power and was more powerful than the previous one. He intentionally released the restraint on his mind, causing the power to be somewhat scattered, and the shockwave affected Long Xingyun.

With one strike,

The effect was immediate.

The wriggling speed of the illusion greatly slowed down.

Long Xingyun's mind was impacted, and his mind went blank for an instant.

Cheng Han took another step forward and quietly activated the Linghuan Remnant Seal, saying, "Miss Guan, please don't panic. The Inspection Bureau can ensure your safety."

This sound contained the extraordinary power of soothing the mind, similar to the later moves of the Nine Elements Strong Body Technique, but the effect was better.

And below the Xuan Shi level, there was no ability to distinguish between the fluctuation of the Remnant Seal and the fluctuation of the Source Energy, so they could use the power of the Remnant Seal without worry.

Miss Liuying's panic was quickly calmed down.

Cheng Han took another step forward and gently patted Miss Liuying's shoulder, releasing a tiny amount of True Flame power.

This pat was the most crucial part of the rescue plan.

According to the deduction, the illusion represented the "Darkness of Eternal Night," while the True Flame Remnant Seal represented the eternal light. The two were naturally opposing forces.

With just a trace of darkness, it could drag him into the gateway to another world?

Thinking too much!

Of course,

If the illusion was thousands of times stronger and darkness completely overwhelmed the light, it would not be impossible.

"Crack!"

His palm fell.

The wriggling of the illusion slowed even more.

Cheng Han quickly conducted a second deduction and breathed a sigh of relief.

In the illusion presented by the All-Knowing Eye, the gray shadow inside the illusion had disappeared at some point, indicating that the gateway to another world had closed.

Done!

To tamper with things under the watchful eyes of the Inspector, and not let him notice, it was really troublesome!

At this moment,

Miss Liuying came back to her senses and hugged Cheng Han's arm, bursting into tears.

Cheng Han felt a little embarrassed.

Long Xingyun also recovered from the shock.

He was shocked to find that this kid's Soul-Shaking Slash was even stronger than he had imagined. The previous strike had actually been held back.

What an amazing student!

Long Xingyun glanced at Miss Liuying and winked, saying, "Cheng Han, do you need me to leave for a moment? This way, it would be more convenient for you to comfort Miss Guan."

The word "comfort" carried a different meaning.

This was obviously a boring and vulgar joke.

To have an unconventional relationship with a detainee while guarding the illusion was definitely a serious violation of the law and would definitely be severely punished.

Cheng Han glared at him angrily.

I saved your dog life, and you still make fun of me?!

Excessive!

But.

Long Xingyun quickly resumed his disguise as a serious person.

This guy smiled and said, "Miss Guan, the illusory shadow under your feet is not moving now. I just said that it was just your illusion. Do you believe it now?"

Miss Liu Ying sobbed while looking down at the ground.

Sure enough.

The illusory shadow stopped wriggling and seemed to have turned into a real shadow.

She stared at the motionless black shadow and cried and laughed, "Shadow... sob, it seems much fainter than before... sob, am I going to be fine soon?"

Upon careful observation, the color of the illusory shadow did indeed become much fainter than before.

Long Xingyun nodded and said, "Based on the experience of the Inspection Bureau over the years, this should be a sign that the illusory shadow is dissipating. It may take another half a day to a day for it to completely disappear."

Miss Liu Ying started crying again.

But this time, it was tears of joy.

Long Xingyun's expression carried a hint of pride as he said, "Miss Guan, please trust the professionalism of the Inspection Bureau. We have the ability to deal with all kinds of anomalies."

Cheng Han took the opportunity to pull his arm out and retreated to the door.

He muttered to himself, "What professionalism do you have? If it weren't for me resolving the crisis, you would have become the pioneer of exploring the otherworld long ago."

No.

Perhaps "martyr" is a more accurate adjective.

*

The following time.

Everything was calm.

Miss Liu Ying took the medicine again and fell into a state of deep sleep.

This was not to help her sleep, but to stabilize her psychological state and avoid stimulating the illusory shadow, which would also help speed up its dissipation.

Cheng Han stared at the illusory shadow, recalling the "gateway" that appeared just now, and silently recited, "Deduction!"

When the gateway to the otherworld appeared on its own, the All-Knowing Eye would surely be able to analyze more knowledge from it. The so-called "opportunity in crisis" was exactly this principle.

A chill rose.

His mental value plummeted.

A torrent of information surged out.

Among them were some fragmented and bizarre images.

For example, a withered and desolate land, covered with deep bottomless gullies; or a boundless black mist pressing down on the land, occasionally revealing some fleeting shadows, like ghosts.

Among them was also a piece of information—the place was called the "Eternal Dark Origin."

Confirmed!

It really is another world!

After a few breaths, a prompt message flashed: "Proficiency +224, current proficiency is 1598/3000, mental value is 18.4/34.4."

Cheng Han smirked.

Indeed, they gave a lot of proficiency for analyzing high-level existences!

The progress bar had surpassed halfway, he made a profit!

After digesting the knowledge, countless thoughts flooded his mind.

"The illusory shadow originates from a power called the 'Eternal Night Darkness.' The 'Eternal Dark Origin' is highly similar to this term, so there must be a close connection between the two.

"The Eternal Dark Origin cannot be small, and there are also some strange creatures there. From a logical perspective, there is probably a super powerful existence controlling it."

This was not difficult to understand.

In the ancient land, three major divine beings ruled; in the current human world, top-tier powerhouses stood at the top.

In the presence of extraordinary powers, the Eternal Dark Origin was unlikely to be a land without an owner.

This conclusion startled Cheng Han, "Could it be that a powerful being comparable to a divine being, no, perhaps another divine being, is peering into our world?"

The possibility was high!

He couldn't help but sigh, "How many unknown secrets does this world hide?"

Seeing him lost in thought, Long Xingyun curiously asked, "Cheng Han, what are you thinking?"

Cheng Han didn't answer, but instead tentatively asked, "Chief Inspector, I would like to ask, besides the three major divine beings, are there any other divine beings in this world?"

He thought that the other party had been serving the authorities for many years and might know some insider information.

However.

The answer was disappointing.

Long Xingyun shook his head and laughed, "If even the three major divine beings have been suppressed, how could there be other divine beings? You kid really have wild imagination."

Cheng Han casually agreed, "I was just daydreaming," but secretly shook his head.

Forget it!

Ignorance is also a kind of bliss!

*

Two hours later.

The shift ended.

Two inspectors entered the bedroom on time, taking over Cheng Han and Long Xingyun's positions.

Cheng Han strolled out of the house, looked up at the night sky, and couldn't help but complain, "What a loss."

His previous promise to Long Jingshan was only to help the 15th Middle School achieve a top-five ranking, but saving the Chief Inspector's life far exceeded the scope of the promise.

I need more money!

Right, I've saved enough money. I can go and see the Feathered Beasts another day.

Thanks for the reward for 'Not Entering the Dao'!
