“Who would have thought that the world would be unpredictable? You actually entered the Jade Grade n.o.ble Realm before them.

“If Qin Xiang finds out, his eyes will probably pop out, right?

“The aura on your body is a little strange, like the Tough Realm…

“But this is probably also a manifestation of your special Force Feature, right? Really…”

“Issuer Liu!”

Lin Yan hurriedly interrupted, lie originally thought that Liu Lanqing would just sigh with emotion, but he didn’t expect her to say it endlessly.

Now that time was precious, he could not waste it. He hurriedly said, “Issuer Liu, let’s talk about this later, right? Business is more important!”

Liu Lanqing was sighing with emotion when she was interrupted. She was a little unhappy. “Business? You said you’re asking for guidance? What kind of business is this… Forget it, forget it. Tell me quickly.”

Lin Yan retracted his helpless expression and looked at the cold Ling Shuangxue beside him. He asked solemnly, “Issuer Liu, how much do you know about the Chaotic Fog?”

“What? Chaotic Fog?”

Liu Lanqing originally thought that Lin Yan was asking about the situation in the prefecture capital, the strength of the Jade Grade n.o.ble Realm, or what had happened in the underground plains.

The only thing she did not expect was that he would suddenly ask about the Chaotic Fog?

Even Ling Shuangxue, who was at the side, was stunned. She did not expect this.

“Why are you asking about the Chaotic Fog?”

“Issuer Liu, can you answer me first?”

“Alright, alright. Chaotic Fog, right? It’s usually impossible for others to tell you about this.

“However, after you enter the prefecture capital, you will definitely be able to find out the information yourself…”

Liu Lanqing thought for a moment and suddenly turned to Ling Shuangxue. “You’re a scholar of the Qianyuan Academy. You know more about these things and are better at teaching. You tell him.”

Ling Shuangxue was about to refuse when Lin Yan suddenly bowed. “Please, Teacher Ling!”

Ling Shuangxue looked at him deeply. As she stared at him, she said slowly, “You won’t stop until I tell you. Fine…”

She thought for a moment and slowly said, “It’s said that in the ancient times, the world was connected. If people wanted to go anywhere, they could reach it as long as they took a step.

“However, humans reproduced extremely quickly and expanded extremely quickly.

“Everywhere they went, it’s like locusts pa.s.sing through and seizing all the resources for themselves.

“Any creature that goes against humans will be killed by humans.

“Finally, one day, the greed and destruction of humans angered… the G.o.ds.”

Lin Yan subconsciously repeated, “G.o.ds?”

“That’s right. The G.o.ds sent down a Heavenly Punishment and brought with them the Chaotic Fog.

“In the Chaotic Fog, many living beings turned into fiends.

“Humans turned into human demons, beasts turned into beast demons, and there were even more ancient and terrifying G.o.ds and devils that humans couldn’t understand. They wandered around…

“From then on, the human world was isolated by the Chaotic Fog. Human history was buried in the endless Chaotic Abyss.

“The territories that are suitable for human survival have become isolated islands in the Chaotic Fog. A few of them can be connected through extremely rich waterways underground.

“This is the origin legend of the Chaotic Fog.”

Lin Yan muttered again, “G.o.ds… G.o.ds really exist?”

Ling Shuangxue said indifferently, “Who knows? In this world, many people believe in the existence of G.o.ds. There are even many sects that treat G.o.ds as spiritual masters and are willing to wors.h.i.+p them and sacrifice everything for them.

“Most of them wors.h.i.+p powerful human demons, beast demons, and G.o.ds in the Chaotic Fog…”

Lin Yan’s eyes lit up. “The so-called G.o.ds are at most a powerful creature.”

Ling Shuangxue smiled faintly, but there was a hint of mockery on her beautiful smile. “A powerful creature?

“You’re really fearless.

“If you’ve really seen how powerful those creatures are, how insignificant humans are in front of those creatures, the so-called n.o.ble Realm, Wondrous Realm, and Heart Realm, in front of those truly terrifying creatures, are as weak as ants…

“You’ll understand. When your power reaches a certain level, what’s the difference between you and a G.o.d?”

Ling Shuangxue’s words revealed a dense and deep coldness. Similar sadness and despair appeared on Liu Lanqing’s face, as if…

They had seen the unmatched power that made people unable to resist at all.

Was there really such a powerful creature in this world?

Furthermore, Lin Yan had discovered a bug.

“Teacher Ling, I remember Issuer Liu saying that the gigantic Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroach is a ferocious demon at the top of the food chain. It’s almost invincible in the world.

“However, to a Jade Grade n.o.ble Realm expert like you and Liu Zhang, it doesn’t seem to be unattainable.”

The smile on Ling Shuangxue’s lips deepened, but Lin Yan couldn’t tell that she was amused at all. Instead, there was a chill in her smile. Just like her strength, it was bone-chilling.

“Do you know what this world refers to?”

Lin Yan vaguely had a ridiculous thought. “This world… doesn’t include the Chaotic Fog?”

Ling Shuangxue said matter-of-factly, “Of course not!”

Lin Yan was speechless.

“You might be thinking that the Chaotic Fog is a part of the world to begin with. Why doesn’t it include the Chaotic Fog when we discuss the world?”

Lin Yan didn’t comment.

“That’s because the Chaotic Fog is a forbidden area for humans. Humans’ understanding of the Chaotic Fog is similar to fish’s understanding of land.

“The fish lives in the sea. It knows that at the end of the sea, there is a land made of stone. Occasionally, it will catch a glimpse of the creatures coming and going on the sh.o.r.e.

“But that’s land. Fish can’t live on land for the rest of their lives.

“Even if one occasionally jumps onto land, one will immediately suffocate to death.

“To a fish, will it treat land as its world?”

Lin Yan was silent. “So, the so-called invincibility in the world is the world of humans outside the Chaotic Fog?”

“There’s no need to take it to heart. The human world is already huge enough for humans to survive. Also, let me give you a piece of advice…”

“What advice?”

“Don’t casually ask others about the Chaotic Fog.”

Lin Yan frowned. “Will it be dangerous?”

“That’s not it. It’s about the Chaotic Fog. In the prefecture capital, it’s a taboo word that no one is willing to say.

“Some people believe that if they say the words Chaotic Fog, they will be marked by the Chaotic Fog and devoured by it.

“There are also people who simply don’t want to talk about it or mention it.”

“Therefore, most people have never mentioned the Chaotic Fog.

“Even if you ask others, they will immediately change the topic and not talk to you. Ah Qing knows this better than me.”

Ling Shuangxue looked at Liu Lanqing.

Liu Lanqing nodded coldly. “When 1 was young, 1 was very curious about the Chaotic Fog and often asked others. However, no matter how 1 asked, the other party would change the topic in two sentences.

“Later on, 1 could only rely on limited records to understand the Chaotic Fog.

“As time pa.s.sed, I stopped being obsessed with the Chaotic Fog.”

Liu Lanqing said this not very seriously. It was obvious that she was recalling her past memories.

However, in Lin Yan’s ears, it was like a bolt from the blue.

Because this reminded him of his conversation with Yu Qian and Bai Ling.

At the mention of the Chaotic Fog, Yu Qian and Bai Ling immediately changed the topic!

Could it be…

Liu Lanqing could not get any information. It was not because those people were afraid and resistant to the Chaotic Fog, but purely because…

Were their minds distorted like Bai Ling and the others?

No, it can’t be. It’s unlikely…

How many people has Liu Lanqing asked since she was young?

How many people has she talked to about the Chaotic Fog?

If everyone she asked had their minds distorted…

Then what was the entire prefecture capital?

Playing house?

A human ranch?

Westworld?

Or was it a dream?
