When Li Fan transmigrated into a new world, his life seemed unremarkable. He was moderately well-off, with a wife and children, but nothing extraordinary. Everything changed upon his death, when he...
Chapter 1095 Darkness Swallows the Dharma King
"From now on, we are one unit."
"If anyone finds the three people who have fallen behind and are trying to return, report it immediately. Then we will kill them together."
"Remember, don't trust someone who comes back from the darkness. Even if he was once your closest companion."
As they moved forward step by step, the members of the Immortal Alliance reiterated the ban.
At the same time, through communication with the Dharma Transmitter Zhou, Li Fan also learned the origin of this dark and desolate place.
Due to the existence of the Immortal Ruins, the Xuanhuang Realm is constantly affected by extremely huge suction forces.
According to common sense, if it is not stopped, everything in the Xuanhuang Realm will slowly fall into the Immortal Ruins.
This is what the monks of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance once believed.
But the discovery of the Dark Jedi broke this perception.
The dark wasteland is a collection of all worldly matter that deviates from the direction of the Immortal Ruins.
Although it is still a part of the Xuanhuang Realm, it has its own unique rules.
In addition to what was mentioned before, the spirit and sound cannot leave the body.
The lost monks will be seized by an unknown existence in the darkness and become another existence.
But he himself could not perceive it.
"This... seems to be somewhat similar to Mo Rubin's method of possessing another's body?" Li Fan's heart moved.
"Yes. But they are just similar in characteristics. That doesn't mean anything."
Dharma Transmitter Zhou seemed to be intentionally avoiding this topic and continued, "Since this place was discovered, the Immortal Alliance has attached great importance to it. Because darkness deviates from the characteristics of the Immortal Ruins, perhaps by studying it, we can find a way to escape from the Immortal Ruins. But before this, it was only known to the most core few Dharma Transmitters."
"The Xuantian Sect Dharma King once occupied the bodies of Chen and his companions, so he also knew about the existence of this place."
"The You people do not live in the Dark Jedi. Instead, they were the first to discover how to open the Dark Jedi and master the method of utilizing the power of darkness. We discovered this secret when we conquered the small world where the You people lived and fought against them."
"The power of darkness? Could it be that it is a completely different existence from the power of immortals?" Li Fan asked thoughtfully.
"That's not the case. After our observations over the years, we found that the dark power also possesses certain characteristics of fairy power. But..." The Dharma Transmitter Zhou paused, as if he was looking for the right language to describe it.
"The power of the fairy and the power of darkness. Just like a person and his own shadow."
"Originally, these two should be inseparable and blended with each other. But due to the existence of the Immortal Ruins, the dark power was forcibly separated from it."
After hearing this, Li Fan vaguely understood something.
It's like a centrifuge separating the different components of a liquid.
Because of their nature of being contrary to the Immortal Ruins, the forces of darkness all gathered in the opposite direction as the entire Xuanhuang Realm gradually fell into the Immortal Ruins.
"The suction force of the Immortal Ruins is due to the existence of the character [Hungry]."
"So what exactly is this dark force? How can it be able to resist the power of the True Immortal's seal characters?"
Li Fan was somewhat confused.
"We have already explored the entire Dark Jedi. So when Mo Rubin sneaked in and caused anomalies, we were able to detect it immediately."
"If you observe carefully, you should be able to notice something." The Dharma Transmitter Zhou reminded.
"oh?"
Upon hearing this, Li Fan frowned and sensed the darkness around him.
After a while...
"You mean, this is like the regular rhythm of water waves?" Li Fan asked.
"Yes. We found Mo Rubin's aura at the source of this rhythm. But..."
The Dharma Teacher Zhou's tone became a little uncertain: "He has been here for about ten days. He has never changed his position. He seems to have been seriously injured and lost consciousness."
"Could it be a trap?" Li Fan asked.
"No." The Dharma teacher Zhou said firmly.
"Even if it's a trap... With so many of us here this time, we are not afraid of a mere ancient immortal."
Seeing that the Dharma Master Zhou was so confident, Li Fan did not refute him anymore.
No one communicated, and the surroundings fell into a terrifying silence again.
"Be careful, we're almost there."
After an unknown amount of time, the reminder from Dharma Master Zhou came.
They locked onto the direction where the rhythm came from, and the members of the Immortal Alliance formed an encirclement according to the instructions.
Surrounded Mo Rubin who was hiding in the darkness.
They just waited for the order and then attacked in groups.
At the same time, Li Fan was also constantly reminded by the Jiaozi formation.
"Is it really Mo Rubin?"
Li Fan couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"strangeness……"
Although he still had doubts in his heart, Li Fan did not act rashly.
Just follow the actions of the Immortal Alliance and gradually narrow the hunting circle.
Everyone held their breath and waited, but Mo Rubin never responded.
It seemed as if he was completely unaware of the approaching enemies around him.
This was the case until the Immortal Alliance monk finally came to him.
…
"Alert lifted."
"He looks dead."
A somewhat disbelieving voice came from the Dharma Preacher Zhou.
"Um?"
Li Fan felt a sudden chill in his heart.
Following the bodies of the monks of the Immortal Alliance, we came to the center.
The moment he touched Mo Rubin's body, his spiritual sense also sensed his current appearance.
Mo Rubin's face has disappeared.
There was only a dark mass, constantly coming together and coming apart, surging in my head.
This scene was indescribably weird, but what made Li Fan feel even more horrified was Mo Rubin's body.
Half of it is still human.
But the other half seemed to be occupied by the darkness here.
Constantly evolving back and forth between darkness and reality.
After testing by the black-clad warriors of the Immortal Alliance, it was confirmed that the darkness that engulfed half of Mo Rubin's body was not an illusion.
Rather, it is the real physical body that is constantly changing as it disappears and appears.
When darkness appears and you reach out to touch it, what you touch is nothingness.
But after a while, the physical body reappeared after half a day.
The darkness suddenly disappeared.
The hand of the assassin that had reached into the darkness also disappeared.
The darkness seemed to be contagious, and the black-clad warrior was unable to make any sound.
He was engulfed by the darkness that emerged from his hands.
Fortunately, the Dharma teacher Zhou acted decisively and cut off contact with the death squad immediately, and ordered them to be killed immediately.
This prevented the spread of darkness among the Immortal Alliance.
"What do you think, fellow Daoist?" asked the Dharma teacher Zhou in a heavy tone.
Li Fan was silent for a long time, and then he said slowly: "The darkness on Mo Rubin's body seems to be different from that in the Dark Jedi."
"The ones on the body are contagious, but the ones in the surrounding environment are not."
"Before you figure out the truth about this place, it's better not to touch it."
