Chapter 149: Immortal Art — Seeing Flowers in the Mist
A thick fog, rendering objects invisible within a yard, permeated the city of Jinyang, causing panic among the citizens.
Just before, the city experienced thunderstorms and heavy rain, followed by scorching sun, as if capable of turning metal into gold and rocks into flowing rivers.
Now, inexplicably, this dense fog appeared.
The people were frightened, thinking it was the apocalypse, and they were destined to die.
To their astonishment, when they touched the mist, their bodies slowly faded, and even their consciousness was being engulfed.
In a blink of an eye, more than half of the citizens in Jinyang City disappeared as if evaporating into thin air.
In the Qin residence, Qin Feng saw this strange fog, his brows furrowing. “This is bad, what about Mom and Dad?”
Fearing for his parents’ safety, he hurried to the main hall, with Liu Jianli and Lan Ningshuang following closely behind.
Running in the corridor, Qin Feng suddenly saw Qing’er inside a nearby room.
The white fog had spread into the room, and the moment Qing’er touched the mist, her body began to slowly disappear!
“Young Master!” Qing’er exclaimed in fear. As her words fell, her figure became invisible.
Qin Feng was greatly shocked. There was something wrong with this white fog!
Strangely, he had also encountered the white fog on the way here, so why was he unharmed?
Growing more anxious, Qin Feng rushed towards the main hall. Along the way, he couldn’t see any servants or maidservants of the mansion, and they must have been swallowed by the white fog.
Approaching the main hall, he suddenly saw a maidservant who had encountered the white fog.
Her face was full of fear. Qin Feng wanted to help her, but before he could get closer, just like Qing’er, the maidservant disappeared without a trace!
At that moment, there was a commotion in the main hall.
“Mom, Dad?” Qin Feng called out.
Two figures walked out, one was his younger brother, and the other was Black Charcoal Head. There was no sign of his parents.
His younger brother looked anxious. “Big brother, we’ve searched the entire mansion, but we haven’t found any trace of Mom and Dad.”
“Where are Miss and Ningshuang?” Black Charcoal Head asked urgently.
Just as he finished speaking, he caught sight of two figures, one white and one blue, behind him, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Lan Ningshuang frowned. “This white fog is strange, but it has no effect on us. What’s going on?”
On the side, Liu Jianli looked at the white fog, lost in thought.
At this moment, Qin Feng was very worried about his parents’ safety, but he forced himself to calm down.
Because the more tense the situation, the less room there was for error.
He began to analyze the current situation. “All of us have cultivation, while those in the mansion who disappeared after contacting the white fog are ordinary people without any cultivation.”
“In other words, this white mist only affects ordinary people.”
However, the problem lies precisely here. If someone is invading Jinyang City and employing such a grand technique, but it’s not aimed at cultivators, what’s the use?
Ordinary people, how could they pose a threat to invaders?
At this moment, Liu Jianli, who had been silent for a long time, slowly spoke, “I know a technique that is somewhat similar to what is happening now.”
The others turned to look at him, waiting for the continuation.
“Immortal Art — Misty Vision.”
“Immortal Art?” Qin Feng looked surprised, “What kind of technique is this? What kind of Dao Lineage can perform it?”
Having read numerous books, he knew about literature, martial arts, and the occult, but he had never heard of Immortal Art.
Liu Jianli slowly explained, “Immortal Art has nothing to do with Dao Lineage; it is an ancient and unparalleled skill passed down through the ages. I happened to hear my master mention it.”
“Miss, what is the purpose of this Misty Vision? Where did those disappeared people go?” Lan Ningshaung asked.
“They haven’t disappeared; they have just been transferred to another space set up by the practitioner.” Liu Jianli explained.
“Another space?” Qin Feng and Black Charcoal Head exchanged glances, unable to conceal their astonishment.
“Who could perform such amazing techniques?” Lan Ningshaung exclaimed in surprise.
Looking at the scale of this white mist, it seemed to have already covered the entire Jinyang City.
Being able to transfer ordinary people from one space to another, this was not a skill that an ordinary person could perform; it seemed more like the work of an immortal.
Well-deserved of the name Immortal Art.
Qin Feng pondered, “To be able to use such a technique, eliminating ordinary people is just a matter of moments. There’s no need for such elaborate measures.”
“Big brother, do you mean our parents are safe?” Second brother asked hopefully.
Qin Feng nodded, “If my guess is correct, the person who used this Immoral Art should be protecting the people in the city, preventing them from being killed by the invaders. By the way, where are Lord Zhen Tianyi and Senior Yu?”
The others shook their heads, indicating that they hadn’t seen them.
Liu Jianli whispered, “At the moment when the thunderstorm stopped, they left the Qin residence.”
It was the moment when the deafening roar echoed. Qin Feng lowered his head in contemplation, further solidifying his speculation.
Lord Zhen Tainyi and Senior Yu had known about the impending disaster in Jinyang City; they came early to save the city.
And perhaps, they were not the only ones who came to save the day. This terrifying Immortal Art technique might be the work of another influential figure.
“To think of protecting all the people in the city, it’s truly laughable. If you hadn’t used this Immortal Art, would you have the strength to deal with my next move?” Outside the Listen to Rain Pavilion, the Ghost Buddha sneered.
As the words fell, only to see his black kasaya billowing, four arms broke through the torn clothes on his back, and his arms instantly formed various hand seals.
With the Ghost Buddha as the center, the black light cover rapidly expanded, in just a moment, enclosing nearly one-third of Jinyang City!
The powerful aura dispersed the white mist in the city, restoring clarity to the sky and earth.
Inside the black light cover, in the southeast, northwest directions, four black statues of Buddhas simultaneously appeared, towering with an angry expression.
Their eyes widened, fists clenched, palms spread, holding demon-subduing staffs.
This is a Divine Ability—Four Boundless Buddhas!
“Kill!” The four Buddhas simultaneously roared, shaking the heavens and the earth.
Enormous and powerful black arms swung down simultaneously, the earth trembled, and the surrounding houses collapsed instantly.
A wide crack extended outward, directly splitting Jinyang City and stopping after stretching over a hundred feet!
This earth-shattering scene naturally drew the attention of everyone in the city.
Si Zheng of the Demon Slayer Department looked up, his face extremely unpleasant.
Such a spectacle was not something a fifth-grade Ghost Dao practitioner like him could intervene in.
“How are the city’s people?” Si Zheng asked his subordinates.
“My Lord, the people in the city are nowhere to be found, as if they were engulfed by that white mist. However, we were not affected by the mist, not a single person among us.” A man immediately replied.
Si Zheng, as a Chief, was not an ordinary person. After a little thought, he guessed the reason: “The white mist is not a tactic used by the enemy; someone is protecting the people in the city!”
Cang Feilan stood on the side, her eyebrows slightly furrowed as she looked in a certain direction.
That was the direction of the Qin Mansion.
