Compared to Wang Ye, Xiao Jiu was completely unaffected.

With the Phoenix Will and the light attribute, the dark fog that wasn’t very dense had little effect on it.

“Chirp!” Xiao Jiu let out a cry, and a faint white-gold flame spewed out from its body.

The flame burned with an intense white light.

In an instant, it was as if a bright lamp had appeared in the darkness!

The boundless dark fog quickly retreated, like a poisonous snake in the shadows that had smelled realgar wine!

Ear-piercing screeches sounded from within the dark fog.

Within a fifty-meter radius of Xiao Jiu, the dark fog quickly dispersed, and the low-level strange gods in the surroundings let out piercing screeches!

It was extremely unpleasant to hear!

As the light dispersed, densely packed groups of low-level strange gods appeared in their line of sight.

Their numbers were far more terrifying than they had imagined!

When everyone saw this, they took a deep breath of shock.

In the next moment.

“Skyful of Feathers!” Wang Ye was extremely calm.

Xiao Jiu seemed to have long been prepared as a few dozen feathers suddenly appeared on its body.

The feathers were very special.

After evolving, Xiao Jiu had undergone a great change.

Each of its feathers contained special energy that burned with a faint white-gold flame.

It was the Scalding Bright Flame.

Characteristic, Flame-like Light Blade.

Any attack from Xiao Jiu that had to do with its wings would be added by light flame damage.

This was practically fatal to the low-level strange gods.

A few dozen feathers were nothing to Xiao Jiu.

Moreover, by now, it could already perfectly control the feathers that flew out.

Wherever it aimed, the attacks would hit!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

The feathers that were burning with flames were like invisible flying swords, piercing through the strange gods in front of them.

Like sickles cutting grass, they were harvesting rows of low-level strange gods.

It was effortless.

Like enchanted feather blades, the attacks interweaved into a forbidden area within a fifty-meter radius of the only lit area.

This scene dumbfounded the investigators behind them.

Their minds were filled with question marks.

What the hell was this?

It was usually difficult for them to deal with even a few strange gods in the dark fog.

But now, the strange gods had been dealt with so easily?

They did not even dare to shoot a movie with such a plot.

It was as if those strange gods were just mannequins!

“This is ridiculous… What kind of pet is this?” A senior investigator could not help but say, “Xu Hu, it seems that you were the one who brought him out to investigate in the beginning, right? That green sparrow has already grown to this stage?”

“I’m also very confused…” Xu Hu fell silent, “But let’s get back to business for now. After all, Wang Ye’s pet is only at level two. It won’t last long.”

Everyone came back to their senses and immediately took action.

They could not waste time.

At the same time, Wang Ye, who was deep in the dark fog, could no longer see Anping County.

He could only see the surrounding fifty meters which was within the lighting range of the skill Shine Upon the World.

The area covered by the dark fog was like a small map that wasn’t within his field of vision.

Xiao Jiu’s Shine Upon the World made it so that one could only see within fifty meters.

Fortunately, the point of light could move.

The extremely eerie environment did put great psychological pressure on people.

But at this moment, Wang Ye appeared very calm.

It couldn’t be helped. After all, he had rehearsed this scene countless times in his mind.

“With Xiao Jiu’s current spiritual energy value… it shouldn’t be a problem for it to last a day,” Wang Ye did some calculations.

Unless a large batch of middle-level strange gods appeared.

After all, they would be more difficult to kill with Skyful of Feathers.

He still had some supplements in the spatial sphere, though.

The more strange gods were killed, the more they surged.

Wang Ye didn’t know how long he had walked for. Perhaps he had been very fast, or perhaps he had been extremely slow, but before long, he saw a door.

The glowing door in the dark fog was rather eye-catching.

Strange gods continuously surged out of it, and endless dark fog followed.

“This should be the teleportation door,” Wang Ye muttered.

It was a pity. If he had a deeper understanding of the strange gods, he might have been able to just close it then and there.

“Xiao Jiu, try using your feather blades to attack,” Wang Ye said in a low voice.

Xiao Jiu nodded. The strange gods were like wolves eyeing their prey, but Xiao Jiu’s gaze remained determined and fearless.

It was as if it wasn’t surrounded by strange gods, but a group of ants.

The feather blade gently cut through the strange halo arch.

The halo only rippled slightly, but nothing changed.

“If that high-level strange god created this glowing door, it should be able to sense that I’m destroying it now…” Wang Ye took a deep breath.

He continued to wait.

His mind was slightly fatigued.

After all, he didn’t have as many characteristics as Xiao Jiu.

Time passed bit by bit.

Vaguely, the sound of footsteps could be heard.

Wang Ye wasn’t surprised. He just squinted his eyes and looked at the distant darkness. A figure quickly walked over.

“Wang Ye, are you stupid? How dare you enter such a place alone?” The scolding voice was vigorous and powerful.

It was Tang Xiong.

“Instructor Tang, why are you here?” Wang Ye hurriedly asked.

“I heard from the investigators outside that you went deep into the place,” Tang Xiong said in a deep voice. “Besides, as the instructor of the Corps, I naturally have to come to investigate. Although I’m old, I’m still someone who has experienced the dark fog war.”

“Let’s not talk about that for now. You should leave this place quickly,” Tang Xiong said with a frown, “Don’t act recklessly just because your pet has some strength. There’s no end to these strange gods. You won’t be able to kill all of them. Besides, with your weak talent, if you stay in the dark fog for too long, you’ll easily be infected. You go out first. I’ll investigate here.”

Wang Ye pondered for a moment, then glanced at Tang Xiong and said, “Let’s go out together.”

At this moment, the glowing arch suddenly stirred, and countless strange gods gushed out like a tide.

This time, apart from low-level strange gods, there were quite a few medium-level strange gods as well.

“No!” Tang Xiong shouted, “There are too many. With just the two of us, we will be surrounded. If you stay in the dark fog for too long, you won’t be able to leave. That glowing arch isn’t something that you and I can deal with! You leave first. I’ll help you cover the rear. Then, I’ll follow after. Don’t waste time! Hurry up!”

Wang Ye narrowed his eyes. He thought for a moment and slowly nodded.

With that, he brought Xiao Jiu with him and headed back immediately.

“Chirp, chirp!” Xiao Jiu called out a few times.

Were they really going to leave?

It felt that it could still fight!

It was indeed very dangerous in the dark fog. If they waited for too long, there would be problems.

But whether they could leave or not was another matter. It had not fully displayed its strength yet!

“We are, of course, going back,” Wang Ye slowly said, “We’ll just wait here for a while before doing that.”

Xiao Jiu was puzzled.

Wang Ye did not speak.

Time was tight, so he did not have time to carry out a reality simulation.

This time, he naturally did not choose to do the same as he did in the simulation and just left.

He simply waited quietly.

Not long after.

No one knew what he wanted to do, and even Xiao Jiu was very puzzled.

“Let’s go,” Wang Ye said, “Let’s go take a look.”

He brought Xiao Jiu back to the door and found that the number of strange gods in the surroundings was gradually increasing.

In the distant dark fog, a figure was surrounded by countless strange gods in the center. Only a strange outline of the figure could be seen.

However, the sound that came at this time made Wang Ye’s hair stand on end.

It was the sound of chewing and devouring.

In the middle, an increasingly strange and majestic figure was crouching on the ground, continuously chewing and devouring.

A sinister shadow began to spread out from the figure’s body.

Shadows didn’t seem to exist in the dark fog, so this shadow was as if it had been highlighted and seemed very special.

But there was only a shadow, no entity.

It seemed to have sensed something.

That figure turned its head, revealing a strange and ferocious face that was somewhat like a human but wasn’t human.

The deathly silence of the darkness seemed to have stopped at this moment.

Only the countless strange gods continued to swarm forward while making threatening gestures.

It was as if they were scrambling to be eaten.

“You, why did you come back?” A hoarse and familiar voice with a hint of vigor came out of the figure’s mouth.

“You shouldn’t have come back!”

“You shouldn’t have come back!”

“You shouldn’t have come back!”

The voice gradually became treacherous and evil, then gradually calmed down.

“You shouldn’t have come back to die.”

Rumble!

In an instant, a terrifying aura erupted from the latter’s body!

“Chirp, chirp?” Xiao Jiu’s expression was a bit dumb as if it was confused.

“Indeed, I shouldn’t have come back,” Wang Ye took a deep breath, and his dazed eyes gradually became firm, “But I don’t regret it. Otherwise, I’ll never know the truth. Tang Xiong. High-level strange god, mirror demon phantom.”
