Chapter 42 Turmoil in Beijing
A tremendous surge of Aura of Evil made them realize that the Ghost Gate opened on Longevity Hill had merely been a Precursor Sign of what was to come.
KWA-AANG!
With a heavy thud, the Ghost Gate finally opened wide.
Immediately after, a thick, visible cloud of Demonic Energy began to pour out from the small gap in the gate.
“Hahahaha! It’s done! It was quite a close call, but I succeeded!”
Yi Ja-ryong’s maniacal laughter echoed above the Ghost Gate, which now radiated an overwhelming presence.
The sound reverberated.
It echoed as if hitting an invisible wall.
The anomaly was immediately perceived. Namgung-woo didn’t even need to activate his Azure Serenity Eyes’ special ability; the mere reverberation of the sound was enough for him to realize that this place was beginning to twist.
“Space is…”
It had closed.
This place was no different from a prison. There were no physical boundaries, yet the area they occupied was clearly isolated from the outside world.
“Hey, Young Hero.”
When had Guo Dan approached? Their softly spoken words, though not imbued with Internal Energy, reached Namgung-woo clearly.
What was happening now was something Guo Dan, who had served in the Embroidered Uniform Guard for decades, had never witnessed before. Yet, not having experienced it didn’t mean they were ignorant of it.
For humans learn through the experiences of others.
The Seniors of the Embroidered Uniform Guard had experienced days like this, and they had documented their lives in writing, preparing for future generations.
