Chapter 5000

Under the illumination of the bonfire, Zi Chen could not see what the black shadow looked like. He could only see a shadow appear behind a person.

As expected, the other party did not react at all. He did not sense the danger at all.

After his soul power was absorbed, his body crystallized and disappeared.

Everyone was terrified. The Law Breaking Beast had just left, and now the Vanishing Shadow Beast was here.

"Put out the flames!" the guide shouted again.

The guide shouted again. Everyone immediately scattered and put out the flames in a flurry.

Without the flames, there was no shadow. Could it be that the Vanishing Shadow Beast used the shadow behind it to attack?

Zi Chen guessed in his heart.

He walked back with Miao Pengfei by his side. At this moment, he had decided that no matter what happened, he would follow Zi Chen.

Because these people were not very reliable.

"What should we do?" Miao Pengfei asked softly.

Actually, Zi Chen had kept charging forward because he wanted to escape. However, he did not expect those Law Breaking Beasts to be at the First Force Realm. They had run away before he could.

"Let's wait and see."

Everyone stood together, releasing the light of energy around them. They formed a circle with their backs facing each other.

Everyone held a weapon in their right hand and replenished their energy in their left. For the entire night, no one dared to rest or be careless.

Zi Chen looked ahead, his gaze moving. It was very dark all around. Without using his Immortal Spiritual Eye, he could not see anything.

That night, everyone was on tenterhooks. Time seemed to pass very slowly. Fortunately, there was no danger until dawn.

When the sky was completely bright, everyone let out a sigh of relief. It was as if they had gone through a life and death battle. Everyone sat down dispiritedly, almost collapsing.

"If you don't want to die tonight, you'd better hurry."

The guide's voice was cold as he walked forward first.

After hesitating, the others followed.

"Excuse me, what exactly is a Vanishing Shadow Beast?"

After walking for a while, Zi Chen finally asked the question in his heart.

Everyone looked at him, but no one explained for him.

Zi Chen was helpless.

Just then, the guide suddenly turned around and said, "There is a force. Let me tell you."

Zi Chen was slightly taken aback as he looked at the other party.

A hint of displeasure appeared on the other party's face. "What? Do you think it's too little? Add another one?"

Zi Chen could tell that the man wasn't joking and didn't want to cause too much trouble, so he took out a beam of Extreme Energy and gave it to the man.

"It's a type of existence that relies on shadows to launch attacks. No one can see them, but once you're entangled by them, you'll almost certainly die," the guide explained after putting away the energy.

"No one can see it?" Zi Chen asked again.

The guide smiled and said, "This is the second question."

He reached his hand out and gestured for Zi Chen to use the second power.

Zi Chen shook his head, indicating that he didn't want to listen.

The others pursed their lips, their expressions full of disdain.

The guide didn't explain anything further. As they walked forward, they chatted and laughed. Zi Chen and Miao Pengfei were obviously excluded.

Listening to their conversation, it would take about five days to walk from here to the Border Land.

Last night, they'd already lost two people. At this rate, there probably wouldn't be many people left by the time they reached the Border Land.

A day passed, and no one gave them any payment. They probably only got it when they reached the Border Land, so they'd have to pay for it themselves.

At night, they continued to gather together.

Although lighting a fire was useless, they still picked up some firewood in case they needed it.

"You two, go over there and gather!"

At this moment, a burly man walked over and kicked Miao Pengfei.

"What did you say?" Miao Pengfei stood up.

"I said, you two, get out of here!"

At this moment, there were piles of firewood all around them, but they hadn't been lit yet.

Miao Pengfei was furious. They'd already been used as cannon fodder last night, and now they were going to be used as bait again.

But just as he was about to refuse, the others surrounded him and stared coldly at him.

Obviously, the remaining 67 people formed a team and excluded the two of them.

They were isolated.

"It's your first time here, so it's best if you can train alone.

Of course, if an accident happens, we'll help you in time. "

The guide walked over. "After all, we're all in the same boat, so we should take care of each other."

Miao Pengfei wanted to argue, but Zi Chen suddenly said, "Let's go."

As he left, he took some of the firewood with him.

Seeing this, Miao Pengfei also took some and left.

The others didn't say anything. After all, their flames wouldn't be lit under normal circumstances.

The crowd was divided into two teams, one with 67 people, the other with only two people. Whether it was the Vanishing Shadow Beast or the Law Breaker Beast, as long as they were here, they should know which to choose.

Zi Chen and Miao Pengfei walked to the side and started to arrange the firewood. Miao Pengfei said worriedly, "We're being targeted. What should we do now?"

"Let's wait and see. If it doesn't work out, we'll leave."

Zi Chen's biggest advantage was that he could see the Vanishing Shadow Beast. At the same time, it was also the main reason why Miao Pengfei was willing to follow Zi Chen and trust Zi Chen.

And until now, Zi Chen hadn't revealed his bone rod. Clearly, he was confident.

Zi Chen didn't hesitate and lit the fire.

This made the 67 people nearby sigh in relief.

This idiot's actions would only make them safer.

Night fell. There was no Xing Chen in the sky, nor was there a moon. It was pitch black.

Beside the bonfire, Zi Chen turned and looked in the direction of the 67 people.

They were surrounded by light, so he could see them.

Noticing that Zi Chen was looking in their direction, someone immediately shouted, "Hey, don't look in our direction!"

Miao Pengfei was uneasy. He whispered, "Zi Chen, why don't you come and look at me?"

Knowing that the Vanishing Shadow Beast relied on shadows to attack, he didn't want to light the bonfire. It was Zi Chen who insisted.

Now that Zi Chen was looking in the distance, Miao Pengfei was unsure.

"What's the point of looking at you?" Zi Chen said. "Watching you die?"

He turned his head and glanced behind him. Just then, his expression changed.

Seeing Zi Chen's expression change, Miao Pengfei's expression changed. There was fear in his eyes. "Zi Chen, don't scare me!"

Zi Chen ignored Miao Pengfei. Instead, he slowly turned around. Just outside the fire, a black figure stood.

The two of them were probably looking at each other. But at such a close distance, he still couldn't see what the other person looked like.

"Ah!"

Miao Pengfei suddenly screamed.

Zi Chen glanced at him and said, "What are you yelling about?"

His shout also gave the others a big fright, and they all stood up one after another.

"Is there something behind me?" Miao Pengfei asked.

"If there was, you'd be dead!"

Zi Chen said unhappily.

Hearing this, Miao Pengfei heaved a sigh of relief.

He didn't see that Zi Chen's forehead was covered in cold sweat.
