Chapter 918 Strange creatures
Chapter 918 Strange creatures
as lin fan walked forward, it seemed like the mist was moving out of his way.
that was because he was using the mist shaping technique to move that mist out of his way.
it was quite easy to do, it didn't even seem like it took any effort for him to move the mist out of his way.
that was because lin fan's control of the mist shaping technique was already at a level that was better than the leader of the mist guards. the speed at which he picked up the mist shaping technique had almost made the mist guards want to start crying.
it was also because of this that they had no choice but to accept him going into the weeping mist forest alone, which was where he was now.
as lin fan walked through the weeping mist forest, he could understand why they said that this was a place that normal people couldn't enter. he understood why it was important to have the mist shaping technique when entering the weeping mist forest.
without it, he would have been completely surrounded by the mist and would have lost his way.
just like when he first arrived in this place.
if it hadn't been for the road that was there, he might have really gotten lost and would have never found weeping mist city.
perhaps that wouldn't have happened if he didn't fly into the area around the weeping mist forest, but he chose to fly on the back of igneel.
with the mist shaping technique, he was able to easily control the mist in the area around him and create an area where he was able to see everything. with the mist gone, he was able to see the true appearance of this weeping mist forest.
when he saw the true appearance, there was only one thought that passed through lin fan's mind.
strange.
this place was very strange.
perhaps it was because they grew inside of the mist, but all of the plants around him had strange appearances.
this was most likely because they had adapted to the low amount of sunlight that they got because the mist blocked the sun.
this place seemed to barely have any traces of green, but that wasn't strange since they really couldn't rely on sunlight and photosynthesis to survive. it seemed that the plants here had to develop different ways of getting nutrients.
based on the roots that stuck out of the ground, it wasn't hard to guess where those nutrients came from.
lin fan could even see some bones that were among the roots that were sticking out of the ground.
these were carnivorous plants.
it would be best not to get too close to their roots if he could avoid them.
though as he thought this, there were roots that suddenly came out from under the ground.
"you want to eat me? you're nothing more than plants." lin fan gave a soft snort before black flames appeared at his feet.
the moment that the black flames appeared, the roots suddenly stopped in place. then after shaking a bit, it seemed like they wanted to dig back into the ground. find more to read at empire
it was just that the roots didn't get the chance as the black flames surrounded them.
lin fan had been using his mist shaping technique to create a thin layer of mist that hid him.
his thought when he was attacked by the plants was that they could sense him through the ground where he wasn't blocking himself with the mist. however, it seemed like this wasn't the case based on the reaction of these spirit beasts.
it seemed that they had vaguely noticed something at first and he held himself back as he waited to see if they would pass. but they didn't leave this place, rather it seemed like they had noticed where he was.
they were looking right in his direction, almost as if they could see him.
lin fan waited for another bit, but he was disappointed when they suddenly threw attacks in his direction.
it seemed like they were able to sense him in the end.
he didn't know how these spirit beasts were able to sense him, but it seemed like they were able to figure out where he was.
so the only thing that he could do was...
"die!" lin fan said as he waved his hand.
there were blades of mist that suddenly flew out when he waved his hand like this.
the spirit beasts didn't seem to react to the blades of mist at first, but then they had looks of shock when they were suddenly cut up by the blades of mist. it was as if they couldn't believe that the mist would hurt them like this.
these were spirit beasts that had lived in the mist for all this time, so it seemed that they had gotten used to being in the mist.
it almost seemed like they had this strange kind of trust towards the mist around them.
so when they were cut by these blades of mist, it was almost as if they had been betrayed by a close ally.
the spirit beasts that weren't taken down in a single hit jumped back, but they were still injured by the blades of mist. it didn't seem like they would be able to fight with the way that blood dripped from their wounds.
it seemed like they would succumb to those wounds at any moment with the way that their wounds looked.
so the only thought that was on their minds was...
"run!"
the injured spirit beasts turned to run without a single care for what lin fan thought.
only, how could he let them escape?
if he were to let them escape, there was no telling if they would bring more spirit beasts to hunt him.
so lin fan waved his hand and they were suddenly surrounded by this barrier of solid mist.
the spirit beasts that ran had shocked looks again when they bumped into this barrier of solid mist. it was almost as if they couldn't believe that the mist around them could form this solid barrier.
but there was no denying it as it was right there in front of them.
with another wave of his hand, the spirit beasts were put out of their misery.
