Chapter 822: Chaos Coming
Zhang Hui nodded solemnly:
"That's right, it's the Tianji Mirror."
"It seems that the man in black robe has not given up, but is secretly accumulating strength and preparing to act again."
Yun Youzi took a deep breath and said:
"In this case, we must act immediately. Where is Li Yang?"
Zhang Hui nodded slightly:
"He has already gone outside the city to investigate the situation."
"We agreed that if we find any abnormalities, we will report back immediately."
At this moment, the courtyard door was pushed open suddenly, and Li Yang walked in quickly, with a slightly nervous look on his face.
"How should I put it..."
Li Yang glanced at the two of them, paused for a moment, and then said,
"It's already a mess outside the city."
"The dark cloud is constantly expanding. Wherever it passes, the grass and trees are withering, and the birds and animals are fleeing."
"What's even worse is that there are still many people who are wandering around aimlessly as if they have lost their souls after being enveloped by the dark clouds."
Yun Youzi and Zhang Hui looked at each other and saw solemnity in each other's eyes.
"It seems the situation is more serious than we thought..."
Yunyouzi said in a deep voice,
"We must act now."
Li Yang nodded and looked at the two of them:
"Zhang Hui, go and inform the state pastor and ask him to organize manpower to evacuate the people."
"Senior Yun, do you have any secret treasures that you haven't used yet that can help with the current situation?"
"We need more power to fight this disaster."
Zhang Hui nodded in agreement and immediately started taking action.
After a brief thought, Yun Youzi quickly walked to the study and took down a simple wooden box from the bookshelf.
Opening the wooden box, there was a bronze mirror lying inside, which was the broken Golden Crow relic that had been taken back from the man in black robe.
Yunyouzi picked up the thing and looked at the mirror carefully.
Some strange runes could be vaguely seen flowing on the mirror, but the overall look was dim and dull, as if it had lost its past magical power.
"Right now, I don't know what the sudden fluctuation of the Tianji Mirror comes from..."
Yunyouzi frowned and thought,
"The worst possibility is that the man in black robe has found some way to use the power of the Tianji Mirror..."
"But both the Tianji Mirror and the Golden Crow relic have the ability to sense each other."
"Using this thing, we may be able to find the enemy's location."
At this moment, a faint light suddenly flashed across the mirror, and then a blurry picture appeared in the mirror.
Yunyouzi took a closer look and saw a towering mountain peak in the picture. The top of the mountain was shrouded in thick fog, and a huge altar was vaguely visible.
Around the altar, there were countless black shadows swimming around, as if they were performing some strange and abnormal ritual.
"This place...is Wuyang Mountain."
Yunyouzi's pupils narrowed slightly and he spoke slowly,
"The guy is not dead after all...he is still there to continue his plans."
The picture quickly disappeared, and the relic returned to calmness again.
Yun Youzi understood that this might be the last strength of this broken artifact.
At this moment, Zhang Hui had returned here and brought the latest news.
He said seriously:
"Zhou Mu has begun organizing manpower to evacuate people, but the situation is not optimistic."
"Those people who have been shrouded in dark clouds seem to be completely unable to listen to any advice and just wander around in confusion."
Yun Youzi also nodded slowly and told the two of them what he saw in the Tianji Mirror.
"It seems that we must go directly to Wuyang Mountain to solve the problem at the source..."
Yun Youzi said,
"It's just that it must be extremely dangerous there. Are you two friends willing to go with me?"
Li Yang and Zhang Hui glanced at each other, then nodded slowly.
Li Yang was the first to speak and said slowly:
"Other than that, there is no other way."
"Until we find a way out of here, that man in black robe is our only way out of this world."
"We are trapped here. If this world is destroyed, who knows what will become of us?"
Zhang Hui also echoed:
"Yes, besides, this is related to the safety of the entire city. So many people's life and death are our responsibility."
Yunyouzi smiled happily and said:
"In that case, let's set off immediately."
The three of them simply packed up, took the necessary magic weapons and elixirs, and set off in a hurry.
Along the way, they saw outrageous sights.
The originally bustling streets were filled with people wandering around in a daze, their eyes empty, as if they had lost their souls.
The dark clouds in the sky are getting thicker and thicker, and weird lightning flashes from time to time, making heart-stopping thunder.
Leaving Zhoucheng and heading towards Wuyang Mountain, the three of them found that the situation was even worse.
Large areas of farmland have withered, trees have lost their vitality, and the whole world seems to be shrouded in a layer of gray.
"This situation reminds me of the... original Chaos invasion recorded in ancient books."
Zhang Hui suddenly said,
"According to legend, the way of heaven fell, the gods went crazy, and the world turned into chaos. Under the will of the gods, it became distorted, degenerate, and lifeless."
"The first scene when chaos came was what it looks like now."
Yunyouzi nodded:
"This is what happened back then... If my guess is correct, we may be at that point in time."
"It seems that the purpose of the man in black robe is probably related to the fall of Tiandao and the arrival of Chaos."
Li Yang said in surprise:
"If you put it that way...are we afraid that we will have to fight Chaos head-on?"
"That's true..."
Yun Youzi said in a deep voice,
"But that's why we must do our best to stop it."
"Not only to save ourselves, but also to take a look at our situation over there and see if there is any solution."
The three of them quickened their pace and soon arrived at the foot of Wuyang Mountain.
Looking around, the entire mountain was shrouded in thick black fog, and the top of the mountain was completely unclear.
The eerie and terrifying aura hit his face, making people shudder.
"It seems that we have to find a way to break through this dark fog..."
Yunyouzi said, taking out a jade talisman from his arms.
Explain while using it:
"This is a magic weapon I got when I traveled around the world in my early years. It's called the Evil-Breaking Talisman. It's said to be able to drive away all evil spirits."
"Hope it comes in handy."
After speaking, he raised the jade talisman high and chanted a spell in his mouth.
The jade talisman immediately emitted a dazzling golden light, forming a light shield that enveloped the three people.
Under the protection of the light mask, the three people began to head towards the top of the mountain.
The black fog continues to dissipate where the light mask touches, but will soon gather again.
"This mist... has very special properties." Li Yang said as he walked, "It feels like it is alive."
"If nothing else, this should be some kind of manifestation of the power of chaos."
Zhang Hui nodded in agreement:
"Yes, I always feel that there is something hidden in this mist, and it may pop out at any time."
Yunyouzi looked around cautiously:
"Everyone, be careful and don't take it lightly."
