Chapter 2257 The Disaster of Red Mist
A flame silently burned on Sharon's still body, making a 'sizzling' sound, causing the surrounding practitioners who were already in despair to raise their heads in surprise.
"What happened to this salon? Why did it suddenly spontaneously ignite..."
"How could it be possible to spontaneously ignite, there must be some powerful cultivator who helped us get rid of this hateful salon!"
"But I have seen the scene when the city lord solves the salon. Even if he wants to solve a salon, he needs to prepare a few days in advance, and it takes several hours to complete..."
"Yeah, it's strange. Could it be that the red mist has spread to our place?"
"Chi Wu... Hurry up, hurry up, I don't want to risk my life on luck!"
Many low-strength practitioners talked about it, but the word "red fog" mentioned in it caught Lin Yue's attention.
"Red Mist...?" Lin Yue murmured puzzled.
At this time, Lu Yu also flew over from not far away, and after hearing Lin Yue's words, he continued, "You heard that too? I heard from their description that the red fog should be a natural disaster in this large area, but I don't know why Those who fled out of the city are practitioners, but mortals are rarely seen."
Lin Yue narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "This matter is a bit strange."
Then he looked at an old man beside him and asked, "Old man, what is the red mist that everyone just mentioned?"
"Huh?"
Hearing Lin Yue's question, the old man was taken aback for a moment, and cast a puzzled look at him.
"You are also a practitioner, how come you haven't even heard of Chiwu? Could it be that you came from another northern region?"
Lin Yue nodded and said, "I'm new here, I really haven't heard of Chi Wuyi, please answer one or two for me."
But at the same time, he was also puzzled. The old man actually mentioned other large regions in the north. Could it be that the red mist was not just some kind of natural disaster in this large region as Lu Yu guessed?
"Okay, then I'll tell you. We've only heard about the red mist in the past two days." The old man stroked his long white beard and explained slowly.
"I heard that it came from the south, and now it has invaded the scope of many large domains, so we will collectively migrate to the north, hoping to go to other northern large domains before it arrives, I advise you to hurry up and go the same way Come back!"
Speaking of this, the old man's face has become extremely solemn, obviously feeling the great pressure under Chi Wu's reputation.
But Lin Yue and Lu Yu were a little confused. They didn't understand what the existence called Chiwu was for a while.
The old man also seemed to see the doubts on the faces of the two, and said apologetically, "The old man may not have made it clear. This red mist is actually a red mist, but it contains terrifying danger. I heard that someone After touching it, the whole body festered and died, and some people directly turned into a mummy, and there are all kinds of death methods, which are very terrifying!"
Hearing this, Lu Yu couldn't help but widen his eyes, "Is it actually a poisonous gas that can spread across large domains...?"
On the other hand, Lin Yue asked, "Mr., but I think most of the people who come out of the city are practitioners, and mortals are rarely seen. Why?"
In the entire Yangjian, although the number of practitioners is not rare, the overall ratio is still lower than that of mortals, so the sight of mortals not being seen now seems a bit abnormal.
Hearing Lin Yue's inquiry, the old man also said with a strange expression, "The reason is very simple, because that kind of red mist will not affect mortals in any way, and only practitioners will be in danger when they come into contact with it, so most mortals in the city are afraid of it." I didn’t leave, and the mortals I saw occasionally were just family members brought by some practitioners.”
"Ordinary people will not be affected? There is such a saying..." Lin Yue raised his brows slightly, his eyes revealing a hint of thought.
It's okay if it's just a poisonous gas that can be spread, but the target is
It only affects practitioners, but has no effect on ordinary people with weak bodies, so it has to make him think a little too much.
Could it be that this existence called 'Red Mist' is specifically aimed at practitioners?
"Old man, do you know where the source of the red mist is? Where did it come from?"
After hearing Lin Yue's question, the old man shook his head in a rare way, and said helplessly, "I don't know about this question either. After all, it has only been a few days since the news of Chiwu came. Several buildings have already fallen, let alone It is said that such important news has been sent back."
Hearing this, Lin Yue also understood that the red mist is specially effective for practitioners. Even practitioners who know where it comes from may have disappeared. As for mortals who are not affected by it, Without a means to quickly transmit information, such important information as the place of origin cannot be communicated...
"Thank you, sir, for clarifying the confusion."
After hugging the old man, Lin Yue led Lu Yu away from the crowd.
As soon as he walked out of the crowd, Lu Yu asked him eagerly, "Boy, what do you think of this matter?"
Hearing this, Lin Yue's expression gradually became serious.
He sighed and said, "This matter is much more serious than you and I imagined at the beginning. Not only does it involve the entire Yangjian, but the speed of spread does not seem to be very slow. The blood sacrifices that have been going on are far greater!"
"That's right! But the weirdest thing I think is that it only affects practitioners in a targeted manner.
Coincidence or...? "Lu Yu said halfway, his face became a little ugly.
Lu Yu suddenly remembered the saying of the end of the era. Could this be a sign that the era was about to be destroyed? He can feel that the frequency of similar catastrophes is far beyond usual...
After pondering for a moment, Lin Yue said decisively, "No matter what, we still have to return to the Human Realm first, and deal with the matter of the Ten Thousand Races Alliance in advance."
Since the red mist will affect all practitioners, it is also a severe test for the Ten Thousand Races Alliance, a large force composed of multiple races.
It's just that there is always a touch of anxiety in Lin Yue's heart. If the red mist is really like what the old man said just now, people who practice it will die if they stick to it, and it will continue to spread, then where will these practitioners hide in the end? ? Sooner or later, all the large domains in Yangjian will be invaded by the spreading red mist, and they will have nowhere to escape...
Is it possible that they can only hide in a certain paradise that is isolated from the world, or use the means of the strongest to open up a space for practitioners to survive?
