Chapter 2204: Granting authority?

After entering Cangmang Mountain, endless darkness immediately surged towards me from all directions, and in the blink of an eye, it enveloped me completely.

Only then did I understand why Cangmang Mountain looked so dark.

Because in Cangmang Mountain, there was a layer of black mist.

This mist seemed to be able to swallow all light sources, and it also exuded an extremely strange aura. In a trance, I seemed to hear... sighs in the black mist?

"Could this mist also be formed after the evil god's fall?" I frowned, carefully sensing the changes in my body, and found that this mist did not seem to have any effect on my body.

"If this fog never dissipates, doesn't that mean there is no daytime in Cangmang Mountain? But this is obviously impossible!"

In Mu Han's description, Cangmang Mountain is also divided into day and night.

So I guess that this strange black fog should only appear at night, and this black fog should not cover the entire Cangmang Mountain, but only a part of it.

"If this black fog only covers a part of Cangmang Mountain, then my luck is too bad. I just entered Cangmang Mountain and came to the area covered by black fog?"

Just as I squinted my eyes and carefully sensed the surrounding situation, suddenly, a sigh rang in my ears.

Oh my God!

This sigh came too suddenly. Although the sound was light, it sounded like a thunder in my ears. I was so frightened that my hair stood on end. I tensed up and my eyes were full of fear.

"Who?"

I asked in a low voice.

There was no response, only the whistling wind and thick black mist rolling around me.

"Did I hear it wrong?" I swallowed my saliva with a gulp: "Whether I heard it wrong or not, I must leave this place as soon as possible. This place is too weird!"

After saying that, I turned around and wanted to exit Cangmang Mountain first and return to the plain to wait for Mu Han.

But just as I was about to leave, that sigh rang out again.

This time, I could hear it clearly. That sigh was extremely long and deep, and the sound was extremely melodious. It seemed to be ringing from a place extremely far away from me, and it seemed to have reached my ears across the endless void and across the history.

"Who? Who is sighing?" I bent my body slightly and took a defensive posture.

But, apart from that sigh, there was nothing unusual here, only the thick black fog was still surging non-stop.

"Could it be... the residual soul of the evil god who once perished here?" I frowned, and then turned around and left without hesitation.

After all, according to Mu Han's narration, even the fourth-stage strong men of the demon race were possessed and controlled by the residual soul of the evil god. Now I am just a second-stage Yin Yang Realm dragon slayer. If the residual soul of the evil god really exists here, I am afraid I will not even have the strength to resist.

However, just when I was about to rush out of Cangmang Mountain, the sigh sounded again, and this time, the sigh sounded more lonely than the previous two times.

Then, I heard a voice full of sorrow saying, "You are the hope I'm waiting for, right? But... you are not here at the right time, you shouldn't be here at this time!"

At this point, another sigh sounded, and I was suspicious.

Who is talking?

And what do these words mean?

What do you mean I am not here at the right time, I shouldn't be here at this time?

Is there a time limit for when I come to Cangmang Mountain?

But the next second, I was suddenly shocked, because I suddenly thought of a possibility!

"I originally traveled from the modern times to the ancient times. Does the owner of this voice mean that... I shouldn't enter Cangmang Mountain at this time node? But why did he say that? What would happen if I came here at another time node? And he... seems to know me?"

I thought to myself, how is this possible? I don't belong to this era at all. In this era, except for the few people I met before, other people can't know me!

It's even more impossible for them to know that there is someone like me in this era!

"You are too weak, so weak, but you met me at the wrong time. Should I say this is my misfortune or your misfortune?" The voice rang again, but this time his words made me even more confused.

"Who are you? What do you mean?" I asked in a low voice.

At this moment, I have given up the idea of ​​leaving.

The owner of this voice does not seem to have any ill will towards me, and from what he said, it seems that he is waiting for me.

Although I don't know why someone would be waiting for me in this era, it is precisely because of this that I decided to stay, because I want to figure out what is going on.

And for some reason, at this moment, I suddenly had a strange thought.

That is...

this person is very likely to be my adventure in this era!

"Who am I?" A low laugh came from the thick black mist, but soon, the low laugh died down, and it was replaced by a sigh that was still very sad and lonely.

"I don't remember who I am. I have been wandering here for too long. I only remember... I was waiting for someone, someone who could save me. And you should be that person, right? It's a pity that you came here at the wrong time. You came too early, and I was not ready yet, and you... haven't grown up yet. You are too weak now. Even if I can give you the power, you simply can't bear it."

"What!"

These words exploded in my mind like a thunderbolt, and I trembled all over. At the same time, I widened my eyes and stood there like a wooden chicken.

"Give me authority? You, you are not the remnant of the evil god, nor are you an immortal who died here?"

As we all know, immortals are immortals because they have no hope of becoming saints, so they choose to enter the immortal world. Before entering the immortal world, they must return the authority they hold to the way of heaven.

But this person actually holds authority, so he is obviously not an immortal!

Although the evil god can hold power, if it is only a remnant of the evil god, it is not enough to continue to hold power. The power it holds will inevitably return to heaven at the moment its soul is gone.

Since this person is neither an evil god nor an immortal, who is he?

And why did he give power to me?
