"Uh!" After hitting the rock wall of the mountain peak, Chen Hao immediately spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
He had not expected that the Dark Eye Stone would harbor such formidable power.
When he returned to the vicinity of the Dark Eye Stone, the black ancient force had already vanished into the air, leaving many mysteries behind.
At this moment, a black fissure appeared above the shattered Dark Eye Stone, followed by Hua Shan, Xie Xiaofeng, the Onmyoji, and members of the Superpower Organization emerging consecutively from the fissure, landing on the ground.
Seeing those familiar faces on the ground, Chen Hao smiled and let out a sigh of relief in his heart.
Not long after, the people lying on the ground gradually regained consciousness, and Chen Hao entered the Nether Acupoint to bring out Lin Xiaofan.
"Chen Hao, Xiaofan, it's you!" Xie Xiaofeng expressed his surprise.
He got up and approached Chen Hao and Lin Xiaofan, then asked, "This is the Beiwang Mountain Nature Reserve, right? How did you guys end up here? Why has it suddenly turned dark? I clearly remember it was morning just now."
"Yes!" Hua Shan's voice suddenly sounded beside Chen Hao and Lin Xiaofan's ears; he had reached behind them silently.
Chen Hao and Lin Xiaofan exchanged glances, then Lin Xiaofan turned to look at Hua Shan and asked, "Boss, do you really not remember anything?"
Hua Shan shook his head and said, "I only recall that Xie Xiaofeng and I entered this reserve and found many beasts and beastmen. No, that's not right!"
Hua Shan suddenly exclaimed as if he had realized something. He looked up and around, then his gaze fell on Lin Xiaofan.
"Lin Xiaofan, this is the Mirror Realm, isn't it?"
Lin Xiaofan nodded.
"What, the Mirror Realm!" Xie Xiaofeng was shocked, "How did we end up inside the Mirror Realm? What exactly happened?"
During this time, all the Onmyoji and members of the Superpower Organization gathered around the four of them, each looking at Chen Hao and Lin Xiaofan with a confused expression.
"You were all drawn into a stone, and you only managed to come out after I had destroyed that stone just now," Chen Hao explained succinctly.
"Who drew us into that stone?" Hua Shan questioned, "I didn't notice anything."
"It was a descendant of a Night Wolf Tribe beastman who can become invisible and also mask his scent, which is why he could approach you without detection and then used that Dark Eye Stone to draw you all in."
Chen Hao explained, then with an urgent expression added, "I'll tell you the specifics later. Right now, City Q's urban area is full of beastmen; we need to leave the Mirror Realm and head there for rescue."
Subsequently, Lin Xiaofan led everyone out of the Mirror Realm, back to the real world.
In the real world, the Beiwang Mountain Nature Reserve was littered with the corpses of the Beast Clan and rivulets of blood.
Seeing this, everyone aside from Chen Hao and Lin Xiaofan was taken aback.
"Did you kill all of them?" Hua Shan's eyes widened as he asked Chen Hao.
"It wasn't just me; there were a few more helpers."
Then, the group hurried toward City Q's urban area.
Chen Hao and Hua Shan, along with Lin Xiaofan, Xie Xiaofeng, and two Onmyoji with profound mana, rushed to City Q's urban sector.
By that time, all five beast tribe leaders, including the gorilla-like monster leader, had been dealt with; Zhao Chong and Ye Fei each killed two, and the remaining one was defeated by Niu Tou.
Even though all the leaders of the Beast Clan had been eliminated, the number of people in Q City who had awakened their beast blood and transformed into beast people had already doubled since Chen Hao entered the Mirror Realm.
The reason-deprived beast people roamed the streets and alleys of Q City, stormed into various residential communities and densely populated areas, biting anyone they saw and causing destruction everywhere.
Soon after arriving in Q City, Chen Hao first led Xie Xiaofeng to Tang Jing, who was being surrounded by the beast people.
"Tang Jing is in your hands!" Chen Hao, floating in the air, said to Xie Xiaofeng.
"Don't worry, I'm here!" Xie Xiaofeng was very confident.
"Be careful!"
After nodding, Xie Xiaofeng performed the Five Elements Incarnation Spell, turning into a mist of water and floating down towards Tang Jing's position.
At this moment, Zhao Chong and Niu Tou came to Chen Hao's side.
"Yang King, Family Leader Zhao and I have done all we can do, the rest is up to you people of the mortal world to solve," Niu Tou said respectfully to Chen Hao.
Chen Hao nodded, expressing his gratitude, "Thank you both for your help this time."
"Yang King, no need to thank us; you should be thanking the Nether King. The Netherworld has always interfered little in the affairs of the mortal world, and if it weren't for the Nether King's personal orders, we wouldn't dare to come and assist," Niu Tou said with a smile.
"Let's go!" Zhao Chong said coldly.
Niu Tou nodded, then looked at Chen Hao and said, "Yang King, it's not suitable for Family Leader Zhao and me to stay in the mortal world for too long; we will head back to the Netherworld now."
"Farewell, another day I'll invite you both to my house for a meal!"
After Niu Tou and Zhao Chong left, Chen Hao went alone to the place where the beast qi was most concentrated, using Yin Yang Arts to one by one freeze the blood of the people who had turned into beast people, reverting them back to normal humans.
Ten minutes later, Hua Shan sped to bring the Onmyoji one by one from the natural reserve of Beiwang Mountain to Q City at the fastest speed.
At the same time, Onmyoji who had been notified in advance by the national Onmyoji Association from East Country also arrived in Q City, one after another.
As more and more Onmyoji joined, the beast people disaster that had affected the entire Q City area was finally brought under control. The Onmyoji used various Yin Yang Arts and formations to revert those who had turned into beast people back into humans.
Three hours later, after the relentless efforts of the Onmyoji, all those who had their blood awakened returned to their senses, and those from the Beast Clan who were allied with Chu Xiangjie were all either eliminated or sealed and subdued.
However, this crisis also claimed the lives of tens of thousands of innocent people in Q City, and the panic and sorrow that enveloped the entire city were hard to dissipate for a long time.
Standing atop tall buildings, looking down at the police and workers busy clearing away the mountainous piles of corpses, both Chen Hao and Ye Fei were so heavily struck that they couldn't speak.
Chen Hao had a premonition that this beast people disaster in Q City was just the beginning, and things were far from over.
Everything was due to Tai Shan; as long as Tai Shan was not dealt with, it would not end.
However, up to this point, he still did not know the purpose of Tai Shan's actions, nor what Tai Shan would do next?
The only thing he could be sure of was that this matter was definitely related to the mysterious ghost baby who had pushed open the Gate of the Nether King twenty-one years ago.
From the ghost baby's kick to open the Gate of the Nether King twenty-one years ago; to two years ago when Tai Shan used others to destroy a quarter of City H, to now Tai Shan releasing the seal under the deep sea of Nanshan Nanling, these three incidents seemed like a meticulously laid out and step-by-step executing plan.
And at the heart of all the plans was that very mystery ghost baby who had kicked open the Gate of the Nether King.
Chen Hao had this idea once more and was firm in this thought.
"Exactly who is that mysterious ghost baby? What exactly is their purpose in doing all this?"
