Chapter 767: Chapter 768 Anomaly_1

"What is this..."

Agunas glanced at Xiao Ji, surrounded by black mist, and as soon as they entered Foreyn’s mansion, a strange change occurred on Xiao Ji. A thick black mist emerged from Xiao Ji’s body and enveloped it.

"I didn’t expect it to happen so fast. Little Green Snake, can you find the connection point?"

Feng Yuan bit his lip and looked at Little Green Snake. He had thought the situation wasn’t serious, but now it seemed otherwise. Little Green Snake closed its eyes and sensed for a moment before shaking its head, leaving Agunas somewhat perplexed as he asked,

"Connection point? What exactly is this?"

"The boundary between the Netherworld and the real world has somehow started to dissolve. I had sensed that this place was gradually connecting with the Netherworld, but I thought there was no urgency. I didn’t expect..."

Feng Yuan explained as he observed the Foreyn mansion gradually undergoing a transformation. Granny Mianlan, her expression unchanged and calm, commanded,

"Panni, Breeze of Freshness!"

A deep purple spherical Spirit Beast with the majesty of a king materialized behind Granny Mianlan. The golden cotton ball atop its head wobbled and stirred up a breeze that carried a strong scent of life as it blew in all directions.

"We don’t need to fight them."

Feng Yuan glimpsed at the Ghost Series Spirit Beasts dissipated by the Breeze of Freshness, frowning slightly. Those Ghost Series Spirit Beasts were clearly coming through the connection point from the Netherworld, and they weren’t exactly amicable toward the living.

Although Panni received no further orders, the Legendary Level creature didn’t need too many commands from Granny Mianlan. A series of emerald storms spread out in all directions. Although Wood Power was not particularly effective against Ghost Series Spirit Beasts, it was the best they could do.

"Can you find them?"

"The staff? That’s not a big problem, as long as those Ghost Series Spirit Beasts don’t act recklessly."

Feng Yuan nodded, responding to Granny Mianlan’s inquiry. If those Ghost Series Spirit Beasts mistakenly thought the staff members had intruded into the Netherworld, it would be troublesome. Although they didn’t possess Spatial Ability themselves, most Ghost Series and Death-type Spirit Beasts innately had the ability to move in and out of the Netherworld.

With the reality and the Netherworld intermixing here, if they attempted to move between the worlds, Feng Yuan also didn’t know where they would end up.

"Lead the way."

Granny Mianlan said calmly, yet everyone could sense the slight urgency in her voice.

"Xiao Ji, over to you."

Xiao Ji looked at Feng Yuan with some confusion before pointing at Panni; Feng Yuan said resignedly,

"You’re in charge of leading the way, and also make sure to shield our aura well. Don’t let them mistake us for invading the Netherworld."

Xiao Ji nodded, flew into the sky, and let out a loud call. Although it only had Good Level strength, as a Death-series Divine Beast, its power and abilities would undergo a tremendous change in such an environment.

A cloud of black mist shrouded Feng Yuan and his group, leaving the Ghost Series Spirit Beasts that sensed the Wood Power and rushed over without a target. Xiao Ji glanced at Feng Yuan, let out a call, and flew towards the main mansion.

"Sorry."

Granny Mianlan immediately stopped Panni, who was about to take action. Although Feng Yuan hadn’t explained in detail, she now understood that this was not an invasion of Foreyn’s mansion by Netherworld Spirit Beasts, but rather, due to some unknown reason, the Netherworld had connected with reality. The Ghost Series Spirit Beasts residing in the Netherworld had mistaken the area of Foreyn’s mansion as part of the Netherworld.

Although she had not experienced that era, she had heard that before the Guardian Wars, the opposition between the human world and the Netherworld was intense, as many nobles fantasized about reviving the dead and even attempted to lay claim to the Netherworld—thus invading it wantonly. Although the exact reasons for the human world’s devastating defeat remained unclear, thereafter humans were forbidden from entering the Netherworld, and any that appeared would be considered invaders.

Of course, if they didn’t show malice, the creatures might also assume they had wandered into the Netherworld by mistake and send them back to the human world.

Previously, Granny Mianlan thought these Ghost Series Spirit Beasts had invaded Foreyn’s mansion and might harm the people, which was why she couldn’t help but have Panni take action.

"What exactly is this place..."

Qi Chen looked around in astonishment. Unlike the artificially created environment they had seen before, the entire Foreyn mansion now looked very sinister and eerie—so much so that various strange apparitions roamed around, too disturbing to look at for long.

"The Netherworld is basically like what you see now, only there the Ghost Series Spirit Beasts are forced to reveal themselves, so it’s even more terrifying."

"If you had dealt with it earlier..."

"These things would have appeared directly."

Feng Yuan glanced at Agunas and interrupted without letting him finish. This was also why he had noticed but not intervened before. He wasn’t bothered by it, but for the other students, it was a different story, and they had to be protected, which really wasn’t necessary.

"But it’s strange, considering the strength of the spatial barriers at that time, it shouldn’t have collapsed so quickly. Why..."

"Did you create this situation?"

"Don’t talk nonsense; I’m not that bored. But why did you come here?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Feng Yuan looked at the white-haired man beside him with some surprise. Lorraine Tower looked towards the distorted Foreyn mansion and said,

"Someone is attempting a forbidden ritual here, so I came to have a look,"

"Another betrayer?"

After thinking for a while, Lorraine Tower shook its head and said,

"It’s unclear, it doesn’t quite seem like it, at least there’s no sign of an invasion in the future."

"Or does that mean all those rituals failed?"

Lorraine Tower also found this strange. Among countless possibilities, it indeed did not see a successful one. Agunas glanced at Feng Yuan and asked,

"Have you ruled out his influence?"

"What does it have to do with me... I would be excluded from such matters, okay?"

Feng Yuan said somewhat speechlessly. Agunas flicked its tail and did not say much more. Unlike Lorraine Tower, which monitored the river of time, it wasn’t very clear about the specific possibilities for the future.

Glancing at Xiao Ji in the sky, Lorraine Tower calmly said,

"Do you plan to let it solve the chaos this time?"

"How could that be possible, Little Green Snake is in charge of this matter."

"Little Green Snake? So it’s involved?"

Lorraine Tower looked at Little Green Snake with an indescribable expression, now understanding why Gitalien had been acting strangely these past few days.

"I believe that the overlay of the Netherworld and reality shouldn’t lead to those dangerous forbidden rituals."

Lorraine Tower didn’t look very pleased, as it had been busy dealing with other matters with Gitalien, and now this issue had arisen too. According to priorities, the current threat to world safety demanded a much higher priority than the matters they were dealing with.

"I’m not sure about that, you could check it out while you’re at it."

Feng Yuan didn’t care much about that; he just needed to take Little Green Snake and re-separate the spaces. Remembering something, Lorraine Tower looked at Feng Yuan and asked,

"What has been happening in the Netherworld recently?"

"What about it?"

"We’ve been dealing with spatial barrier fragmentation lately, many of which are related to the Netherworld. Is there a problem there?"

"That... I’m not sure, after all the Netherworld is part of the Yang World, and many things..."

Feng Yuan gave a helpless smile, and Agunas said in surprise,

"You’ve been busy with this?"

"Yes, I don’t know why there have been multiple instances of barrier fragmentation."

"Could it be Emperor Savidi..."

Agunas seemed to recall the mischief they had done before and shook its head as Lorraine Tower said,

"No, it’s also busy dealing with the damaged barriers of the Dream Domain."

"Infiltrators from the Bright World?"

Considering a possibility, Agunas spoke with a grim expression. Hearing Agunas’s words, Lorraine Tower quickly caught on and, with a somber face, said,

"It is possible; they indeed have an easier time evading my surveillance than others."

"If that’s the case..."

Feng Yuan, with a slight smile, tossed the Dark Ancient Book in his hand and said,

"Then let’s confirm it~"

"Don’t mess around! The people here haven’t been rescued yet!"

Agunas swung its claw and a beam of chaotic light directly hit the Dark Ancient Book. Perhaps because Feng Yuan hadn’t used much force, the Dark Ancient Book was sent flying back into Feng Yuan’s hands by the chaotic light.

"Are you sure using that thing won’t affect those people?"

Agunas looked at Feng Yuan disapprovingly. Scratching his head, Feng Yuan’s face beamed as he stowed away the Dark Ancient Book.
