Chapter 200 The Mysterious Sky Beneath the Gluttonous City



Crimson Corruption is similar to Demonic Power, except that Demonic Power is no longer as rampant in his hands, while Crimson Corruption becomes even more sinister in Su Quan's hands.

It's like a sealed, bottomless abyss, containing the unknown, and once opened, there will be no more possibilities.

The corrupt kiss left on his body by Su Quan was the key to opening the gates of the abyss.

With this key, all that's needed is for Si Zang to guide the power scattered across the earth when Su Quan died, so that he can take the opportunity to unleash the potential of Crimson Corruption and stimulate this power to bloom with a lingering will that once attempted to control Crimson Corruption!

As for whether this world will be destroyed... compared to being gradually devoured by the enemy, they may have the possibility of rebuilding on the ruins after the destruction.

After a brief discussion, Si Zang left the courtyard of the Yin House.

Lin Feng gathered the zero power that had emerged from the Book of the Dead and held it in his hand.

Without any particularly unusual changes, malevolence began to emerge from the demonic blade, attracting Zero Force to release a dark purple aura from it. As the aura continued to spread, the dark purple gradually enveloped his body until his entire being emanated an aura severely corrupted by Zero Force.

"How do you...feel?"

Lin Feng stood up, wondering about Hong Linggui and Gui Ke in his mind.

“I have a feeling of being watched. This power doesn’t belong to you.” Gui Ke poked her head out and said very solemnly, “There is a hidden will within this power. If its master appears, he can take it back at any time.”

“Qiong Qi.” Lin Feng understood: “All of this Zero Power originates from Qiong Qi, the King of Ten Thousand Zeros, but... it’s enough to conceal our identities.”

After getting used to it for a while, Lin Feng took off his combat uniform, changed into a very ordinary outfit, put on a straw hat and straw sandals, and walked out of the Yin House Ghost Domain.

Their current location is very close to Taotie City. There are many ordinary people who have transformed into Rakshasa and are heading towards Taotie City on the surrounding mountain roads. Behind them are some human teams infected by Zero Force.

Lin Feng quietly blended into a group from the back and followed them back into the city.

Compared to before, there are no normal people left in this city. On the desolate streets, one can see people who are about to become nothing and are full of dejected souls. Several Rakshasa crawled out of the big pit in the center of the city and staggered into a pile of ruins.

This seems to have happened many times before.

Lin Feng continued walking quietly, entering the base through the open gate without any hindrance.

In retrospect, it seems that this base was never intended to be fortified. The patrol personnel encountered last time were only there to ensure that the base's infrastructure was not damaged and that it could continue to operate.

Upon reaching the third floor, Lin Feng glanced at the several people lying on the ground, swept away the zero energy emanating from them, stepped over them, and headed towards another door.

Langming's mother is here, imprisoned deep within this base.

As Lin Feng slowly approached, he heard footsteps leaving from the depths. After waiting for a while, he quietly went over.

There were no guards in the room. In the dim light, there was only a figure chained up with an iron chain, huddled listlessly in the corner, showing no sign of life.

Lin Feng took a few steps closer, and just as he was about to see the sorrow on that face clearly, footsteps sounded from outside again.

"She's right here!"

"How could Sister Mei be here?"

"Really, look!"

The three of them entered the room, their eyes all fixed on the locked figure.

"Is it really Sister Mei?" The room light shone on the speaker's face. Zhan Chi rubbed his eyes in disbelief and hurriedly ran over: "Sister Mei, Sister Mei, wake up, what are you doing here?"

Qianjun spoke coldly from behind the light and shadow: "He made a wish to restore Langming's sight."

“A wish? No, Sister Mei hasn’t turned into a demon yet.” Chen Yue denied the guess.

At this moment, Zhan Chi, who had rushed to Mei Ran's side, grabbed the iron chain and pulled it hard a few times, shouting, "Hurry up, let's get her out of here. We can't let Sister Mei become a demon!"

"Don't move."

Qianjun suddenly stopped Zhanchi and pointed to the seal mark on the iron chain: "Our mission is to find out the situation here. Taking action will not only expose us, but also implicate Sister Mei."

A beam of light was moved onto the iron chain, and circles of tadpole-like characters crawled all over the wall along the chain. If the Xia Lan technique had been used just now, the entire room might have changed.

"Let's write this down first, and then bring the teacher to see it later."

"Um."

The three went out, and when their footsteps disappeared at the edge, Lin Feng emerged from the ghostly realm where he was hiding and came to Mei Ran's side.

"Red Belle controls her soul..."

"Wait, let me do it, I have a way." Gui Ke rushed out and burrowed into Mei Ran's body.

In no time, Gui Ke emerged from Mei Ran's body, smiled, and then disappeared.

"You...you..." Mei Ran raised her head, a red mark pressed into her pale cheek.

Lin Feng's gaze was icy: "Is Lang Jing still alive?"

Mei Ran looked at the face that emerged from the dim light with panic in her eyes, and heard the question asked again: "Is Lang Ming's father still alive?"

The image of the woman she had just seen in her dream appeared behind that face. A sense of relief led Mei Ran to lower her guard. She swallowed and slowly replied, "He... is gone."

"What happened?" Lin Feng's tone showed no softening. Gui Ke, who was standing to the side, released a bit of her soul power and flew into Mei Ran's body, soothing her emotions once again.

"He...was controlled and died at the hands of the Xia Lan."

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng quickly calmed his thoughts and continued to ask, "Where is the soul of the Taotie?"

Mei Ran leaned against a box in the corner and answered in a low voice, "According to the records of Jiugongling, the soul of Taotie has been swallowed by Qiongqi."

What? !

Lin Feng lowered his breath and asked, "Is Qiong Qi really dead?"

"Dead..."

Before Mei Ran could finish speaking, Lin Feng already had a new answer in his heart: who knows if he was really dead or not?

One-third of Qiongqi's Zero Power was sealed in Langming's body, but since there were participants present, what difference would it make if Qiongqi learned how to split his soul and killed one of them?

"Lang Ming is unaware that his father is dead; only Commander Jiugongling knows this."

"Please take me to him, I can't let him..."

"Task Five: Mei Ran's Request"

Lin Feng glanced at the mission prompt and shook his head without hesitation, saying, "You can't save him."

Qiongqi, Taotie, Langming, Jiugongling... If that's the case, then the real enemy waiting for them below will be Qiongqi, who possesses the power of Taotie!

In the original storyline, Qiongqi needed a suitable body, which means that his original body had been destroyed. Now, what could possibly be better than Taotie's body?

With the help of the participants and the existence of Taotie City, as long as the timing is right, no one will stop him from being resurrected, and no one will even be able to detect his secret plans.

So, the one inside Langming is Qiongqi, and the one below who fulfilled Langming's wish is also Qiongqi. Once the cycle of all changes is perfectly closed, he will be able to devour everyone and be resurrected in an even stronger form.

"Please, please, take me there, it's definitely possible..." Mei Ran's emotions collapsed again, and her slumped figure in the corner seemed to lose its support, pressing down on the box next to her.

Lin Feng faintly heard a few sighs, and after a few silent exchanges, all hope was extinguished.

He couldn't save Langming...

This was an unpredictable operation; let alone saving lives, they might not even be able to retreat safely.

As he left, the dim light in the room flickered a few times, and several footsteps could be heard coming from the corridor in the distance. Mei Ran's eyes regained some of their luster.
