Chapter 124 Border Attack
Tang Zijun frowned slightly.
"What do you mean by 'already inside the secret realm'? We haven't found the entrance to the secret realm yet, have we?"
"Originally, secret realms usually had their own boundaries. Barriers between dimensions could prevent creatures from different realities from communicating with each other, but the veil here seems to have been destroyed."
Chang Lei stretched out his hand, constantly using his remaining energy to sense everything around him.
Although the surrounding environment was pitch black, he was still able to "see" some very unusual sights through his deceived eyes using his deception skills.
Hidden within the thick, grayish-white fog are strands of energy, resembling ribbons. They connect various scenes within the fog like a spider web, or flow continuously like a stream.
These fine lines are filled with unsettling energy, malevolent and twisted, carrying with them the stench of decay.
"We're too late." Chang Lei withdrew his gaze and said calmly. "The heretical demons have already torn apart the barrier here."
After a pause, Chang Lei continued.
"The secret realm should be protected by a naturally formed barrier, but the veil here is extremely thin. The distorted space is just the beginning, and the inverted world has already been affected."
"What will happen if this barrier disappears?" Tang Zijun asked.
"The disappearance of the barrier means that the boundary of the sealed secret realm will no longer exist. At that time, the scene in the secret realm will completely connect with the real world, and the energy inside will also flow back into reality."
Can the secret realm and the real world be integrated?
Tang Zijun narrowed her eyes slightly. "Is this a good thing or a bad thing?"
"You don't understand. There's a reason why the secret realms are isolated from the real world. The energy in those secret realms is a huge form of pollution for reality," Chang Lei replied, frowning.
"Once those energies descend into reality, they will instantly change everything they touch, eroding the things you are familiar with from the root. Even relatively mild natural energies will be extremely harmful to reality."
Chang Lei's tone was anything but joking.
The energy present in different secret realms is also very different. What is currently certain is that the energy of this "Miniature Kingdom" is biased towards nature, which in a sense is similar to that of magical girls.
Even so, this energy still has a strong polluting effect on reality.
The moment the barrier disappears, the secret realm will take root in Huailing. At that time, the immense natural energy will completely rewrite the ecology here, and may even create bizarre beasts and plants.
And this is only the best possible outcome, because if the heretical demons successfully take over this place, then these corrupted natural energies may be transformed into an even more distorted form.
If it really comes to that, the threat to the real world will not be as simple as bizarre beasts. With the help of that energy, it will be much easier for the heretical demons to produce strange beasts!
As they were talking, a ripple suddenly appeared in the thick fog.
Chang Lei's expression changed, and his body tensed up instantly.
"They're here!"
In a daze, a huge shadow slowly emerged.
As if descending from another world, or as if it had just condensed into a body, the giant beast's form appeared and disappeared, seemingly merging with the thick fog.
The darkness made it impossible to see the beast's appearance clearly; Tang Zijun could only vaguely make out a blurry outline, enormous and twisted.
The beast's breathing sounded particularly heavy in the silent environment, each inhale and exhale like the prelude to a storm.
Chang Lei carefully took a step back, trying to minimize his presence.
But this small step, the sound of the foot hitting the ground, triggered a reaction from the giant beast in the thick fog.
Without any warning, the monster moved.
It pounced straight at Chang Lei with unimaginable speed.
Amidst howling winds, thick fog billowed and churned.
Only then did Chang Lei see the appearance of the giant beast clearly—it was an enormous owl with a wingspan of six meters, which swept in from all directions in the dim light.
The sharp claws gleamed coldly, their target Chang Lei.
Chang Lei instinctively raised his hand.
"Transform!"
The next second, a flash of silver light!
The dim environment was suddenly illuminated by bright white light.
Chang Lei instinctively closed his eyes. Before he could react to what was happening, he vaguely heard the screams of a giant beast.
A foul stench assaulted the senses, and a fierce wind swept through, quickly fading the howling sound away, as if something had blasted the giant beast away.
"Wolf riders?" Chang Lei steadied himself and turned around to try to find Tang Zijun.
"Stay here and don't move."
Tang Zijun's voice rang out, calm and solemn, but for some reason, Chang Lei felt that the voice brought him a great sense of security.
Tang Zijun slightly moved her wrist and listened intently to her surroundings.
The dim lighting and thick fog prevented him from seeing his surroundings, but fortunately, this wasn't the first time he'd encountered this kind of trouble.
Having fought against the greedy one who was proficient in illusion for so long, Tang Zijun had experienced countless such chaotic battlegrounds that obstructed her view.
With a slight twitch of her ears, Tang Zijun could hear all the sounds around her, and in her mind, a 3D world was slowly being drawn out.
Suddenly, the owl-like beast swooped down from the side, its sharp claws tearing through the thick fog, aiming straight for Tang Zijun's head.
Tang Zijun dodged to the side, and swung her short sword, but it only struck the thick fog without any response.
Disappeared? !
The owl-like beast's massive body disappeared into the thick fog, vanishing without a trace.
Then, alarm bells rang in Tang Zijun's mind, this time from behind.
Years of combat experience were rekindled, and Tang Zijun quickly turned around and retaliated.
The short sword clashed with the sharp claws, sparks flying.
With a quick movement, Tang Zijun pulled out her shotgun and fired without hesitation into the thick fog.
boom!
A thunderous sound shattered the silence.
The expected sound of a bullet entering a body did not occur, and even the owl's aura had vanished without a trace.
Then, in the sky.
The piercing sound of flapping wings reappeared, along with the sense of crisis that surged into my heart.
Is it there?
The latest novel is first published here!
Tang Zijun reacted quickly, dodging the attack with a backflip.
In the blink of an eye, a loud explosion erupted from the spot where he had just been standing, sending debris flying and the earth trembling.
Tang Zijun landed steadily on the ground, splashing water everywhere. Just as he was about to retaliate, he suddenly stopped.
water?
Where did the water come from?!
Looking down, although she couldn't clearly see her surroundings, Tang Zijun was surprised to find herself in the river from the clear sound of the stream and the cold touch on her legs.
The river was flowing swiftly, and the water was less than a meter deep, only reaching her thighs. Tang Zijun judged that she was probably not in the deepest part of the river.
But the question is, why am I here?
Based on the route he and Chang Lei had taken, there was absolutely no possibility of a river nearby, and he hadn't even heard the sound of water.
Gripping the short sword tightly, Tang Zijun now understood why Chang Lei had said that the space here was similar to the Reverse World.
The boundaries of the secret realm have become extremely blurred. The gradual merging of the two dimensions has caused the space here to fold, and not only the environment, but even the creatures here will be randomly teleported.
At this moment, it was as if countless teleportation portals, invisible to the naked eye, had appeared on the outer perimeter of the secret realm.
They are even more disordered and irregular than the Reverse World, constantly distorting the space here, creating a sense of unpredictable distance, where no one can be sure where they will appear next.
"Chirp chirp chirp—!!"
Just then, the river water beside them suddenly burst open, accompanied by a piercing howl, and the gleaming claws attacked again.
With the blade pointing the way, Tang Zijun drew her sword and slashed at the claws in front of her.
Tang Zijun didn't expect the owl-like beast to get so close, but he also realized that the reason it disappeared for no reason was because of the unstable space around it.
The clash between the blade and the claws reached its climax at this moment.
With a tremendous force, the ground beneath Tang Zijun's feet collapsed, and she was shoved into the river by the owl-like beast.
"Hehehe!!"
The owl-like creature flapped its wings incessantly, and the surrounding river water was swept up by the hurricane, stirring up the mud and making the water increasingly turbid.
The soft riverbed offered no foothold, and Tang Zijun felt as if he were sinking into a quagmire. He gripped the sharp claws embedded in his chest with both hands, while trying to stand up again with his legs.
The owl-like beast let out roars, its scarlet pupils bloodthirsty and eerie, as if it were enjoying the sensation.
However, this enjoyment did not last long.
A faint light suddenly appeared in the river water beneath my feet, and then the light gradually became more and more dazzling.
Boom—Boom—Boom—
A harsh friction sound emerged, and the roar of the engine echoed through the mountains and forests.
The owl-like beast seemed to sense the danger; it flapped its wings, wanting to escape as quickly as possible.
But a tremendous force came from its feet, and its claws were firmly locked to the bottom of the river. No matter how the owl demon struggled, its large hands showed no sign of loosening their grip.
Just as the owl-like creature tried to struggle even more frantically, the motorcycle reflected in the river below was already right in front of it.
A blinding light pierced the darkness, and Langya shot out like lightning, crashing straight into the chest of the owl-like beast with unparalleled power.
"Roar!!"
With a loud bang, the owl-like beast was sent flying by the enormous impact.
The foul-smelling blood splattered everywhere, and grayish-white feathers drifted in the sky.
Its massive form crashed heavily into the water, creating huge ripples on the already turbulent surface. The resulting waves surged towards the shore and disappeared into the thick fog.
Just as the owl-like creature was struggling to get up again, a foot stomped it back into the water.
The cold light flashed as the sharp blade was drawn, its distance from the owl-like beast's pupils barely millimeters.
"die!"
