With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Chapter 919 How are you alive?

after these spirit beasts had been taken down, lin fan didn't bother taking the resources from them.

he could tell that the parts of these spirit beasts were valuable since he could sense the spiritual energy coming from them. with the spiritual energy inside of them, there was no doubt that precious things could be made from them.

only he wasn't interested in collecting them at all.nôv(el)b\\jnn

now that he had reached his current level, these things just didn't interest him anymore.

after all, lin fan could also tell that these spirit beasts were only in the foundation realm. they were considered strong for those from the mist guards, but to someone in the golden core realm like him...

they weren't worth anything.

after taking care of those strange looking spirit beasts, lin fan headed deeper into the weeping mist forest.

only this time, he didn't face the spirit beasts and plants that he came across.

there were more spirit beasts and plants that were scattered all throughout this weeping mist forest, but lin fan wasn't interested in them at all since they were only weak spirit beasts and plants.

they were only in the foundation realm, so they just weren't worth his time.

what he needed to do was find the spirit beast and the herb that grandma pan had tasked him to find.

with his mastery of the mist shaping technique, lin fan was able to make his way through the weeping mist forest without anything disturbing him. even though he crossed paths with spirit beasts and plants, the mist was able to hide him.

that was also part of why he had faced those plants and spirit beasts in the first place.

he wanted to test the limits of his mist, to see if it would be able to hide him from the things that were in this weeping mist forest.

through that test, he was able to see that the mist was more than enough to hide him from the spirit beasts and plants that were here. it was to the point where he was even able to walk right in front of them without them noticing that he was there.

that was just how skilled he was with the mist shaping technique.

with it, lin fan was able to reach the place that was marked on the map.

when he arrived at this valley of mist, he could tell that this place was different.

the moment that he arrived, he felt that there was something off about the mist that was around him. this mist seemed like it wasn't just thicker, it also seemed like it was more concentrated than the mist that had been in this place before.

it was as if there was something that was concentrating all of the mist that was in this valley.

or it was better to say that this place seemed like the source of all of the mist that was in this weeping mist forest in the first place. after all, lin fan could sense the mist that was being released from this place and he could tell that it was spreading all over the weeping mist forest.

did ye qing huan send him to find the source of the mist in this place?

lin fan gave a nod before slowly pulling out the envoy token to show that he was from the mu empire.

the mist guard was confused at first, but the moment that he felt the aura coming from the token.

"you're...from the mu empire?"

lin fan slowly gave a nod before saying, "i'm an envoy sent here to investigate the weeping mist forest, particularly this valley of mist. can you tell me who you are?"

the mist guard didn't respond at first as he just stared at lin fan as if he was figuring out whether he should trust him or not. but in the end, he said, "i'm the leader of the mist guards, we were sent here for a special mission."

"leader?" lin fan asked in a confused voice.

the mist guard just gave a simple nod before saying, "that's right, i'm the leader of the mist guards. though i assume that someone has taken that position temporarily since i've been trapped here for a bit."

after a pause, he added, "sir envoy, please allow me to come with you. i'm sure that i'll be able to help you with my strength."

though he made this request, lin fan just looked at him with a strange look.

after all, as far as he knew, there was only one mission that had been sent into the valley of mist and there were only a few people that had survived.

this leader of the mist guards...should be the leader from many years ago.

if that was the case...

"how are you still alive?" lin fan slowly asked in a shocked voice.

the former leader of the mist guards had a confused look when he heard this as he couldn't understand what lin fan was saying. but he could see the look on lin fan's face, so he could tell that there was something off. discover hidden content at empire

"i...i don't know? i've been wandering around in this mist the entire time."

then after a pause, the former leader of the mist guards asked, "sir envoy, what do you mean by that? why is it strange that i'm still alive? could it be that someone told you that i was dead?"

lin fan didn't answer right away, but he eventually explained what the situation was.

"you're saying that it's already been many years since i've started wandering around in this valley of mist?"

lin fan just gave a simple nod without saying anything else.

the former leader of the mist guards looked down at his own hands before looking at the rest of his body as if he was trying to figure out what was different about him.

he just looked at himself with this strange look for a while before finally looking up to ask, "how am i still alive?"

lin fan shook his head with a bitter smile as if he was saying...

"how would i know?"
