Wang Teng had lost sight of the dark apparition. He scanned his surroundings in panic, wanting to find it again.
As seconds ticked by, his expression grew uglier and uglier.
That damn thing… had disappeared!
Silence!
Dead silence!
He could hear the sound of the wind around him. It sounded like someone sobbing.
At that moment, rustling sounds suddenly resounded from the dense forest surrounding him.
A mist was starting to appear in the Dark Mist Forest again…
“Damn it!”
Wang Teng heard the four-man team below cursing in low voices. In this eerie atmosphere, they fell into extreme uneasiness.
“We shouldn’t wait here without doing anything. We must retreat!”
“No, once we separate, we will be killed one by one.”
…
The longer they waited, the more agitated they felt.
Some people from the team didn’t want to wait for their deaths, but retreating was obviously a bad idea.
The dark apparition hiding in the shadows was like an extremely patient hunter. It might be waiting for the four men to separate.
They didn’t need to stay too far apart. They just needed to stop pasting their backs against each other, and it would have a chance to attack them.
Where did it go?
Wang Teng was also affected by the eerie atmosphere. He felt tense and nervous as he searched for traces of the dark apparition everywhere.
Something just doesn’t feel right!
In an instant, he was on tenterhooks. He turned his neck slowly. When he reached 45 degrees, he finally saw a face that was inches away from his eyes.
A creature that looked like a human was hanging upside down on a branch. It was clutching the tree branch with its limbs tightly as it stared straight at Wang Teng.
What face was it?
A ghost face!
It was an ugly and hideous ghost face!
Its eyes were scarlet and muddy. Its face was covered with black stripes, and dark green vessels were popping out all over its forehead.
It looked both like a monkey and a human. It was bizarre and horrifying.
No wonder he couldn’t find it. This fellow had discovered him and even sneaked up on him.
“F**k!”
Wang Teng’s pupils constricted to needles. He cursed and poured out his spiritual power without thinking, forming a pushing force.
Boom!
The dark apparition pounced on Wang Teng in his face. However, it didn’t expect this human to create an invisible pushing force, causing it to fly out.
Wang Teng used the pushing force to retreat quickly. He landed on the ground.
The four people below were stunned.
This scene was too abrupt. They didn’t know what had happened, yet a figure had already flown down from the tree.
“Who are you?” one of the people below shouted.
This voice belonged to the only lady on the team. She was using the Xingwu Continent’s common language.
“This is not the time to care about who I am. Let’s take care of this damn thing first,” Wang Teng also replied in the Xingwu Continent’s common language.
After he finished speaking, he immediately looked in the direction where the dark apparition flew out from.
However, it had disappeared once again from Wang Teng’s vision.
“Luo Ya, this fellow can’t be trusted. He was hiding suspiciously on the tree. We don’t know whether he’s a friend or foe. If he hadn’t been forced out by the dark apparition, he might still be waiting to sneak an attack on us,” the other male human in the team said.
“We don’t have a choice. Let’s take care of the dark apparition first,” Luo Ya, who was the leader of this team, said firmly.
The man stopped talking. He just reminded Luo Ya so that she could be prepared.
“Be careful. It’s above you!” Wang Teng suddenly shouted.
He didn’t hesitate. Almost immediately, while shouting, he clutched the battle sword in his hand, and a fiery red Force exploded out of his body. He slashed his sword in the air above their heads.
Screech!
A furious howl.
Wang Teng saw the dark apparition pushing its palm forward. Then, with a flash of black, it shattered his sword light.
The other four people were shocked. However, they were experienced martial warriors, so they quickly launched their attacks.
The moment Wang Teng’s attack got diffused, four different attacks ensued.
