Romo was in a strange environment. He felt more and more weird. There was actually the aura of a ghostly cultivator around him, and this ghostly cultivator’s aura was very weird. It was different from ordinary ghostly cultivators.
However, ghostly cultivators were originally a very special existence to ordinary people. It was unexpected that Romo would encounter such an unusual ghostly cultivator.
Romo’s spirit had relied on the tablet to reside together. With the help of the System, his spirit had been condensed. This had caused Romo to be extraordinarily different from other ghostly cultivators. However, he had not expected to encounter an extraordinary ghostly cultivator here today. Romo could only sense a weird aura in the air.
Moreover, the black fog in the sky had not only blocked Romo’s vision, it had also affected his perception. He might have been thinking too much.
While Romo was lost in thought, a dazzling white light appeared in the sky. A dark brown pot-shaped object flew up into the sky and was absorbing the black fog through the spout of the pot.
This high-grade magical weapon had come from Harris. Seeing the power of this magical weapon, a group of people all looked at Harris enviously.
Everyone had only been immersed in envy for a short while before they realized that the magical weapon did not have much effect against the black fog. Although it could absorb, the speed at which it absorbed was as good as not absorbing at all.
“My magical weapon can’t deal with it.” Seeing this scene, Harris retracted his magical weapon and shook his head.
Mike looked at the black fog in the air. “How did this black fog come about? Was it artificially created? Why is it so powerful?”
Everyone shook their heads in confusion.
“It must have been man-made. It might be a kind of formation I have never heard of or seen before,” Edward said helplessly.
“Let’s all look around again to see if there are any leads,” said Harris.
Although the upper three levels also had many formations and mechanisms that shocked everyone, they were still within everyone’s level of acceptance. With the naked eye, one could see some gemstones and places for culturing magical medicines and so on. However, the fourth level was far beyond everyone’s expectations. Even Magi of Harris and Romo’s realms could not understand. They were careful with each step that followed, afraid that they would accidentally touch the mechanisms.
Romo and the others walked ahead for a while. Although they were very careful, they had a feeling that something would suddenly appear in front of them and attack them. However, everything was still normal. Everyone found this unbelievable.
However, the atmosphere became more and more strange. Suddenly, Romo discovered that there had been small craters on the ground that were neither too deep nor too shallow. They seemed to have been left behind from a battle. However, the craters were not obvious not because the magical power of the person fighting was weak, but because the defense of the ground was too strong, resulting in only shallow craters being left behind after the entire battle.
The entire space was within the range of the formation. Leonard had been curious about the ground earlier, so he had tested it. It was unexpected that even someone of Leonard’s cultivation base could only leave a small crater in the ground.
However, what was strange was that Romo and the others did not see any corpses or traces of a Mage despite the large-scale battle on the ground. However, the atmosphere was getting more weird.
“Everyone, be careful,” said Harris, who had heard some faint sounds with his sharp intuition. “Something is coming.”
“It might be a Corpse Soul,” Romo said with his experience. “It might even be a Mage’s.”
Everyone instantly became alert and raised their magical power, ready to fight the Corpse Soul at any moment.
A few seconds later, amid the sound of footsteps, everyone saw a figure appear with a black fog.
“So depressing,” Romo muttered in his heart. After all, he had never seen a corpse when he was alive, so the corpse in his mind had always looked majestic. He did not expect it to be completely different from what he was seeing now.
Not only were they not as awe-inspiring, they were also dressed in all kinds of clothing. Almost none of the corpses’ bodies were intact. They were either missing arms or legs, or their bodies were decaying to varying degrees. They also emitted an odor different from the decaying air. This might be the so-called corpse aura.
There was no doubt that these corpses were all Magi when they were alive, and they were all Magi of strong magical power.
In this manner, Romo thought about many random things relating to corpses. When he came back to his senses, he found that there were corpses all around him. There was no doubt, in just a short time, he had been surrounded by corpses.
And the number of corpses far exceeded everyone’s imagination.
“Could this be the legendary corpses?” Mike shouted as the corpses got closer.
“Everyone, buck up. There are definitely more corpses than we thought,” Edward instructed them, with a sign of helplessness.
Leonard said, “Perhaps these corpses were all those Magi who had come here to seek treasures. They will not be easy to deal with.”
Shirley caught the main point. “In that case, there must be a controller in this group of corpses. Can you guys find him? Romo, Harris, once we find the controller, we’ll capture the leader first and it’ll be easier to deal with this group of corpses.”
Harris shook his head. Even after he had summoned his magical items, he still did not find the controller. “No, I am not able to. These corpses have strong magical power. Everyone, be alert.”
“I have not found anything either. Let’s deal with the corpse in front of us first.” Romo shook his head. In such an urgent situation, he could not sense anything.
As the corpses kept approaching, the black fog around them became more and more dense. The entire air was filled with a strange atmosphere, making everyone feel oppressed and suffocated.
In the blink of an eye, the corpse was already very close to everyone. They could touch it with a stretch of their hands. The corpse could be seen emitting a black aura. Instantly, it was no longer as slow as before. It pounced on Leonard like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey.
Leonard picked up his weapon and struck it. Unexpectedly, it was instantly swallowed by the corpse. Not only that, the other corpses also pounced on him as if they had been given a signal.
“How can this be?” Leonard said in disbelief. It looked like everyone had underestimated the strength of this group of corpses. “Everyone, be careful.”
Before Leonard could finish his sentence, his voice was drowned by the screams of a group of corpses. Everyone had already been surrounded by a group of corpses that looked like beasts that had not eaten their fill. It was as if they were about to tear Romo and the others apart.
When everyone saw this scene, they had no choice but to deal with the crisis in front of them first. Instantly, everyone unleashed all kinds of techniques in the air, emitting magical lights of different colors.
Everyone’s moves were concentrated together, and the energy was extremely powerful.. It sent the pouncing corpses flying one after another.
