Damn, I Awakened With A Horror System!-Chapter 344: Beast Beyond The Mist!

Instantly causing his robed figure to hastily turn incorporeal, flickering with blandness before vanishing under the earth.

Huff~

"Damnit! I just entered this place, yet I already encountered something troublesome. However, how did it manage to approach me without being noticed by my senses?"

With eyes glinting with confusion, unable to comprehend how his high soul power failed to give him any distress signal when the beast attacked his body, Leo gazed in the direction where the thick whip originated.

Unfortunately, due to the pinkish mist that greatly hinders his senses, Leo fails to see through the figure of the beast that just assaulted him, causing the uncomfortable feeling within his mind to deepen as he immediately runs toward the distance.

Although he felt regretful upon being unable to pay for the pain and humiliation that the beast inflicted, without having an overall idea about this independent world, it was somewhat dangerous to fight an unknown beast.

Not only would he spend his spiritual Qi doing that, but he would also risk himself...

With the unfamiliar environment he was currently in, running out with spiritual qi deemed to be irrational.

"Just wait..."

Weakly mumbling to himself and glancing at the faint silhouette of the gigantic beast hiding beyond the pinkish fog, Leo, without further ado, rushes toward the distance — expelling a mist of illusion in his wake.

...

"Help!!!"

"Ughhh-"

Soon, after a while of headless detouring, Leo suddenly heard an agonizing flee in the far distance... Followed by the sound of gnawing and explosions that loudly resounded throughout the encompassing land.

Crack~~

Still not done, after the sound of the explosion subsided, the earth around him suddenly trembled, issuing a constant cracking sound akin to broken glass as the huge fragments of land suddenly flew toward the atmosphere — hovering for a while, being enveloped by a foreboding force before flying in the far distance with a swift speed.

Boom!

...

"This."

Sure enough, just as the huge chunk of earth vanished within his line of sight, the sound of a loud explosion followed by the agonizing wail of the unknown entered his ears, sending chills through his soul as he hurriedly hid behind one of the trees around him.

"That pressure. Nascent Soul realm beings are battling in the distance!"

Sensing the faint yet familiar pressure that he had experienced when the Nascent Soul tree assaulted him within the forbidden pit, Leo's illusionary heart couldn't help but skip a bit.

Not expecting that even Nascent Soul beings would be interested in this independent world.

Understanding that the battle of Nascent Soul beings might bring him trouble, Leo hurriedly activated his movement skill, summoning a faint glow under his soles as his figure hurriedly dashed toward the distance.

Shing!

However, before he could even distance himself from the origin of the battle, the familiar thick whip, highly similar to veins and covered in throbbing thorns, suddenly emerged from the ground... Creating an afterimage as it lashed toward his invisible figure with a swift speed.

Moreover, this time, the power it contained was more dreadful than before! At least twice as terrifying!

Giving Leo an illusion that it was deliberately targeting him after its failed attack earlier.

Swish~

Fortunately, after the setback earlier, Leo already grew cautious. Hence, just after seeing the veins emerging from the ground, he already manipulated the strange energy within his core, causing his invisible figure to flicker before vanishing from his location.

VOID WANDERING.

...

Boom!

Abruptly, the earth trembled as the tip of the vein, covered in sharp thorns, descended from the sky with unprecedented force, instantly creating a long fissure that ran to the depths of the earth.

Unfortunately, after a while, the expected sensation of flesh crashing and innards splashing through the distance didn't occur; instead, countless fine dust flew through the atmosphere, further lowering the visibility of the place as the vein began to retract from the ground.

Churn!

Soon, after being sure that its target really vanished within its senses, the veins trashed its body around regretfully, releasing a continuous hissing sound before retracting its being toward the depths of the earth, forming a spherical shape deep within before transforming into humanoid form.

"Interesting..."

With eyes flickering with green light and long hair that was highly similar to fine roots, the being mumbled under its breath.

Manipulating its complete rules afterward, before traversing the depths of the land again, finding another human cultivator to kill.

***

Shing!

At the same time, almost a kilometer away from the location of the unknown vein and the battling Nascent Soul cultivators, Leo's shrouded figure suddenly emerges from the void.

His body still flickering between the incorporeal and corporeal forms released a sigh of relief.

"That vein is also a Nascent Soul being.

"Fortunately, it seems to underestimate me; if not, I might be battling a Nascent Soul being right now."

Calming down his restless emotion, Leo's gray eyes casually swept around him.

In an instant, the sparse land with occasional herbs growing on them — probably grade 1 and 2 — greeted his eyes, followed by the silhouette of countless buildings being shrouded in pinkish mist, entering his vision.

However, despite the unexpected sightings, the thing that caught Leo's attention was the thick rules present within the atmosphere.

Although faintly, they actually become more noticeable and complete, giving him a profound insight as he was able to partially glean some of their information.

"Illusion... and the other one seems related to the mind?

"The rules here were thick compared to the outside world; however, despite that, comprehending them on my own was extremely hard. It might take me days just to comprehend the basic understanding of the rule."
