Flames, frost, and light scattered everywhere, and violent shockwaves spread in all directions, tearing the ground apart and causing mist to churn endlessly over a radius of several kilometers.

Amidst the raging storm, Yann and the others retreated repeatedly.

Among them, Jerry and other ninth-tier awakened individuals, who were relatively weaker, were blown so badly that they could hardly stand and had to retreat dozens of meters before they stopped.

The tornado, containing metal debris, was momentarily stunned by the various powerful attacks before it began to disintegrate.

As the tornado disintegrated, large amounts of metal fragments were ejected, falling in all directions like cannonballs.

Thousands of fragments flew towards Lu Ning and his group.

Yaen and the others immediately conjured an energy shield to block the flying fragments.

The shield swayed constantly under the attack of the shards.

The whole process lasted for several minutes before everything finally calmed down.

An Lan and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

They looked at the ground cracks that resembled a natural disaster, their eyes still showing a hint of lingering fear.

"What a terrifying tornado. Its power is immense," Osiris said with a grave expression.

Even the incredibly thick fog was rapidly returning to normal, which shows how terrifying it was.

The mist that had been blown away recovered at an extremely fast speed, and An Lan and the others who had fallen behind quickly moved closer to Ya En and the others.

Just then, the air suddenly distorted, and Ling Chuan, who was running towards them, was suddenly swallowed up by a distorted spatial gate and disappeared from the spot.

It all happened so suddenly that everyone was stunned.

When they came to their senses, Ling Chuan had already disappeared.

Steve, standing nearby, felt a chill run down his spine: "Ling Chuan?!"

An Lan's face turned pale, and she quickly said, "Back off!"

Steve, who was closest, immediately retreated while quickly approaching Arn and the others.

Yann and the others also moved closer to Steve and the others.

Everyone gathered together, watching warily as the space gradually returned to normal.

When the space returned to complete calm, Ling Chuan still did not reappear.

After a moment of silence, Yann said heavily, "Let's go."

The others also looked somber.

Everyone knows what it means to suddenly disappear in such a dangerous environment.

Even if Ling Chuan, who was swallowed up, is not dead yet, he still has little chance of survival if he is teleported to another area.

This place is too dangerous; even a ninth-tier awakened being cannot guarantee their own safety.

Although everyone was saddened by Ling Chuan's disappearance, they quickly cheered up.

This situation is not uncommon during fog exploration.

The group continued deeper into the area.

They then discovered that perhaps because they had entered a deeper area of ​​the fog wall, they were encountering more dangers.

The tornadoes carrying metal fragments were not isolated incidents; they encountered them frequently as they progressed.

However, tornadoes vary in size; some are smaller than the first tornado they encountered, while others are much more powerful.

The threat posed by this massive metal storm was immense. It would take the combined efforts of three Saints, including Ya'en, and Lu Ning, an Awakened One with Saint-level strength, to destroy it.

The spatial rift that had previously engulfed Lingchuan still reappears from time to time.

Fortunately, when spatial rifts appear, space is distorted, and there are some signs.

The others, including Ya'en, were even faster. Even if a spatial rift appeared around a ninth-tier awakened person, they could take the person away immediately.

The first time Lingchuan was swallowed up was because they had just experienced a metal storm, and no one expected that a spatial rift would appear here.

On the fourth day after they entered the fog wall, the group had traveled approximately 300 kilometers.

Eventually, Lu Ning and his group discovered the edge of the fog wall.

It was the same silver-gray liquid metal barrier as when we entered.

Lu Ning tried it and found that it was indeed similar to the outer barrier, but the concentration of metallized pollution was much higher.

Lu Ning tried to peek out from behind the fog wall barrier, and found that the surrounding area was a desolate, pale land.

The earth seemed to be covered with grayish-white ash, and numerous phantom images of the moon floated in the sky.

These illusory moon images emitted a cold, pale light, carrying a hint of madness.

Under the moonlight, Lu Ning felt a frenzied consciousness trying to affect his mind.

However, this awareness wasn't very strong, and it had almost no impact on Lu Ning.

Lu Ning returned to the fog wall and told An Lan and the others about the situation.

Considering that Lu Ning's mental state is different from that of ordinary people.

Finally, Yann emerged from the mist and sensed the extent of the madness's influence.

Afterwards, Yann concluded that even a ninth-tier Awakened could withstand it.

However, it requires a continuous expenditure of mental energy.

An Lan wasn't too nervous about this.

“Lu Ning can absorb mental pollution. Even if someone is really affected by a frenzied consciousness and their mental pollution level becomes too high, Lu Ning can help absorb it, and then there won’t be any problem.”

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up.

What Anlan said was indeed the best solution.

The group eventually left the fog wall.

When Osiris and the others looked at the endless, pale wilderness, their expressions were not good.

“This wilderness is too vast. Adding the area of ​​the fog wall from before, it has already exceeded the entire area of ​​Fog 101,” Aishalin couldn’t help but say.

An Lan thought for a moment and said, "It's possible that, like the Fog of Number 233, the internal space has been expanded."
