Chapter 401: Ghost
Everyone's heartbeats accelerated instantly. They pressed themselves against the wall, looking nervously and cautiously at the stone wall where the shadow was approaching.
Just as everyone was holding their breath, a first-level herbivorous rabbit, holding a handful of green grass in its white paws, slowly crawled out from below. It lowered its nose and sniffed in the cave, but smelled no food. It hugged the grass in its hand tightly and retreated with disappointment on its face.
It stuck its tail out and crawled down from the small hole it came from.
Mu Ze's tense nerves instantly relaxed, and he held his chest with his hand, looking like he had escaped a disaster. "I was so scared, I thought it was Yun Li, but it turned out to be a first-level small demon beast."
Luo Li also breathed a sigh of relief, but suddenly an idea flashed in her mind. She glanced at An Shuxue and the others and asked, "Did you sense the aura of this demon beast just now?"
Mu Ze and the others were stunned and shook their heads hesitantly, "It seems... really not."
If he had realized that this was just a first-level magical beast, why would he have been so nervous just now?
Lan Qingqing's eyes lit up. "You mean, there's another dimension here that can block out auras? This demon beast has entered that dimension, so we can't detect its aura?!"
Luo Li frowned, "You didn't notice it either?"
Lan Qingqing also found it strange and nodded, "That's right, I didn't feel it either. If it really is some kind of formation, the person who set it up would at least be as powerful as me."
Luo Li narrowed her eyes, "No matter what, we must find Xiaoxiao and the others first."
Mu Ze ran to the hole where the herbivorous rabbit had just entered, lay down and put his eyes close to it, then reached in and dug around, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
He turned his head and waved to Luo Li and the others, "Come and look! There seems to be something down there!"
Luo Li and the others immediately turned around, stopped talking, and walked over. "Where?"
Mu Ze stood up, patted the dirt on his hands, and pointed to the hole hidden under the ground, "Here."
Luo Li squatted down and moved closer to the place where Mu Ze said. A trace of spiritual consciousness extended from her fingertips and drilled into the cave.
But in an instant, Luo Li's expression changed, and she raised her eyes and said, "Qingqing, come and see."
Lan Qingqing straightened her expression, nodded, and moved closer. Without using her spiritual power, she simply moved closer to the cave entrance and suddenly narrowed her eyes. "Sure enough..."
She stood up, "There's a space down there."
Mu Ze was delighted, "Then Xiaoxiao and the others might be down there?!"
Luo Li nodded, "Very likely."
Her heart moved, and she suddenly felt a strange feeling, but the joy of discovering the clue overwhelmed her, and she didn't think much about it.
Lan Qingqing frowned, "But what on earth is down there? I didn't even notice there was another space down there."
She raised her eyes and said, "You guys stay up there, I'll go down and take a look first."
Luo Li frowned, "Can we go down?"
Lan Qingqing smiled and said, "I have no problem. I just checked and there is no magic weapon blocking it."
Luo Li nodded, "Okay, then be careful."
Lan Qingqing nodded, "Don't worry, I'll be back soon."
After saying that, she flashed and turned into blue smoke, passing through the wall.
While waiting for Lan Qingqing to come back, Luo Li did not waste any time. She turned around and went back to the Tower of Gods to start refining the elixir.
The main reason why we didn't enter the Tower of Gods in the cave just now was because of the Yue family. Mu Ze and the others had already known that Luo Li had a "mansion", so naturally they would not have any other doubts.
Half an hour later, Luo Li left the Tower of Gods, but Lan Qingqing still hadn't returned.
Luo Li passed the space ring filled with pills to Barrett and frowned as she asked, "Has Qingqing not sent back any news yet?"
An Shuxue shook her head, a hint of worry on her face, "No."
Luo Li squatted down, and just as she was about to put her spiritual sense into the cave again, Lan Qingqing came back.
She looked a little unhappy, and I wondered what happened to her down there.
Luo Li stood up and asked, "How is it?"
Lan Qingqing snorted coldly, "It's them!"
Luo Li frowned, a little confused, "Who is it?"
Lan Qingqing's eyes were cold. "It wasn't until I got down there that I realized it was them..."
Luo Li was stunned and asked hesitantly, "So, you know them?"
Lan Qingqing crossed her arms and scoffed, "We know each other, alright. They weren't that man's lackeys back then, but now they've really fallen and actually done something like this!"
Luo Li's eyes flickered, and she instantly understood the origins of these people, "People of the Gods?"
Lan Qingqing didn't expect her to guess it so quickly. She was slightly stunned, but still nodded and said, "Yes, but how did you know?"
Luo Li's lips twitched. "It's hard not to know, right? Besides the people from the gods you knew before, do you know anyone from Tianyuan and Wanshou?"
Lan Qingqing scratched his head and smiled awkwardly, "That's true!"
Luo Li was helpless, "Okay, tell me first, are there any traces of Xiaoxiao and the others down there."
Lan Qingqing straightened her expression and said, "Yes. The space below is very large, even larger than the space above."
Luo Li thought for a moment and asked, "Qingqing, have you sensed the aura of Xiaoxiao and the others?"
Lan Qingqing hesitated and shook her head, "No. But I already know the reason."
Luo Li's expression straightened up, "What's the reason?"
Lan Qingqing explained, "You've already guessed it. The man in black next to Yun Li is the one from the gods."
Luo Li nodded, her eyes flickering, "You mean, this situation is related to his ancient clan's talent?"
Lan Qingqing snapped her fingers and curled her lips, "That's right!"
She said in a deep voice, "If I'm not mistaken, the ancient tribe that the man in black belongs to is a tribe called 'You' in the Continent of Gods."
"In fact, this ancient clan's presence in the Continent of Gods is not strong, and their numbers are not large. However, their ancient clan talents are very special, which is why they have gained a foothold in the Continent of Gods."
Makize asked, "What's so special about it?"
Lan Qingqing pondered, "If I remember correctly, the ancient talent of their ancient clan seems to be 'seclusion'."
"They can conceal their figures at will. Under certain conditions, even their aura and soul fluctuations can be completely concealed. Moreover, those with strong talents can even hide the people of an entire city."
An Shuxue's pupils shrank slightly, as if she had thought of something. "So, the reason the man in black was able to sneak into Wanling City without a trace, and even Senior Lan couldn't detect Xiaoxiao and the others' presence, was precisely because of this talent?"
Lan Qingqing nodded, "That's right. Moreover, this 'Hide' talent is not just about hiding. It can also distort space to a certain extent, making it seem as if the hidden person doesn't exist in this world."
