But when he's out in public, he becomes very assertive and protective of her in crucial moments.

It is precisely because of his flexible and adaptable personality that these two people, who clearly have vastly different personalities, were able to come together.

"here we go."

Ji Fanya was focused on observing his surroundings and was unaware of Zhan Wushuang's thoughts. If Zhan Wushuang knew, he would probably be smug for a long time.

"Um."

Zhan Wushuang then turned his gaze back and nodded seriously.

"Whoosh..."

Yuan Tun took a deep breath and began to devour the white mist.

Soon, the surrounding turbid air began to thin out, and finally became completely clear.

In fact, the moment their vision became clear, the two of them had already sent out their divine senses to the farthest point.

"how?"

After persisting for a while, Yuan Tun stopped and looked at the two of them, asking them a question.

However, neither of them spoke, presumably still observing the situation.

"Found it!"

Suddenly, Ji Fanya opened his eyes and looked at Zhan Wushuang in shock, saying, "A god! It's the aura of a god!"

"Gods?"

Zhan Wushuang immediately realized something and asked nervously, "Could it be the owner of this divine treasure?"

"Possibly."

Ji Fanya clenched his fist and pointed southeast, saying, "There's a thick cloud of black mist over there, completely opposite to the white fog here."

"Black mist?"

Upon hearing this, Zhan Wushuang was taken aback at first, then took out a map and said, "Xiaoya, look, where on the map does this place match?"

"Yes, here!"

Ji Fanya thought for a moment, then pointed to one of the five black dots on the map and said, "Judging from the shape of the mountains and the terrain, this is the most similar."

"That's right, that's what I think too."

Zhan Wushuang let out a deep breath. "No wonder this place is so strange. It turns out there are gods here. Shall we go and take a look?"

"Of course we should. Didn't we agree that if it was a deity, we would take it back with us?"

Ji Fanya nodded seriously, "Besides, that place is very likely the core of the formation. If we don't go there, we won't be able to get out either. In any case, we have to face it."

Having made their decision, the two headed together toward the direction from which the black mist was emanating.

They were able to find the source of the black energy entirely because of the Taotie, a creature with the power to devour everything. Anyone else who came here would probably never return.

Because even a master of breaking formations would likely turn into a pile of bones before finding a way to break the formation, if they encountered these white mists obscuring their vision and stones that could suck blood and flesh.

"hiss…"

Originally, it was not clear from a distance, but when the two of you arrived in front of the black mist, you couldn't help but gasp.

The black mist rose into the sky, forming two arc-shaped black walls, which were very similar to those eerie white stones and were composed of neatly arranged strips.

What is this?

Looking at the thing floating high in the sky, the two exchanged a glance, both seeing bewilderment on each other's faces.

"It's probably a projection of divine resentment."

Yuan Tun thought for a moment and said, "After a god dies, if he has a strong resentment, he will project it in some form."

You mean…

Upon hearing this, both Ji Fanya and the other person showed sadness in their eyes. "This god has already fallen?"

"yes."

Yuan Tun nodded. "Furthermore, it must have fallen quite some time ago; otherwise, it wouldn't have reached the point where it could affect the surrounding environment..."
