Oh no, it's 6:30.

6:30 is when it gets dark.

If he couldn't te return to the city before nightfall, he would face the most terrifying situation in the world.

For 18 years, almost no human has survived a night in the wilderness.

Remaining outside after dark was almost a guaranteed death sentence.

This is bad.

Way Kai took off running, wishing he could sprout wings and fly back to the city.

However, the night as dark fog came swiftly.

In just a few minutes, the black mist engulfed the entire wild boar forest, and the sun in the sky completely vanished.

It was dark.

Faint sounds of ghostly howls echoed from all directions.

The whispers of the dead seemed to resonate in his ears, and the wind blowing around him carried a strong scent of blood.

Way Kai glanced at his status bar and found that he had already accumulated over a dozen debuffs.

His five-dimensional attributes had dropped by 80, and both his speed and stamina were reduced by more than half.

The most terrifying part was that his health was slowly decreasing, but not from losing health points.

Instead, it was a direct reduction of his maximum health.

In just a few short minutes, his health cap dropped from 527 points to 501 points.

This kind of reduction could not be recovered by any means.

He didn't he know if his health limit would drop to zero.

But if it fell to the 10 or single digits, even the slightest bump could be fatal.

No way.

He needed to find a place to hide.

Under no circumstances did way Kai want to die in the wilderness.

He still had unfinished business.

More things to do.

Dying like this in the wild, in the dark, would be too frustrating.

With that thought, he began to walk towards his right.

To the east of the wild boar forest, there was a small hill in his memory.

That was the territory of a monkey troop.

Way Kai had avoided going there because he didn't te want to encounter monkeys.

But now, that seemed to be his only way to survive.

Only by hiding in the mountain, finding a cave to take refuge.

Could he possibly survive the terrifying night? After walking a few dozen steps, Way Kai seemed to kick something, producing a sharp cracking sound.

He froze for a moment, then remembered it was the broken water jar.

Unfortunately, the water jar had been smashed to pieces by an old monkey, leaving no liquid inside.

Everything had spilled onto the ground.

The shards of a jar were of no use, and he had to be careful to avoid cutting his feet.

Just as he was walking, another crack sounded.

Wayai thought he had kicked the jar shards again and muttered, "Damn it!" Just as he finished speaking, he suddenly realized something was off.

That sound, why did it feel like it was coming from behind him? Oh no, he felt a chill run down his back as if something had already set its sights on him.

Way Kai as nerves instantly tensed and he rolled forward, glancing back during the roll.

As a result, there was nothing there.

Behind him was completely empty.

Way Kai, still on the ground, was dumbfounded.

Could it be that he was being overly sensitive? It couldn't he be? He clearly felt something was watching him.

How could there be nothing? He scratched his head, helplessly stood up, and turned to continue walking east.

Then he froze.

Before him floated a half-rotten corpse.

Ghost.

Wayai almost wet himself and immediately drew his great sword to strike.

However, the sword swung through the air.

The sword clearly landed on the corpse, but felt as if it had hit nothing.

Wayai was startled again and suddenly recalled what his teacher had said in school.

Some monsters, like ghosts, could be immune to physical attacks.

This meant that any physical attack would be ineffective against it.

Only magical and spiritual attacks could kill it.

The ghostly creature before him was clearly one of those.

Seeing his attack ineffective, Way Kai could only retreat repeatedly and then pulled out a stack of talisman from his backpack.

But at that moment, he suddenly noticed something strange.

This ghostly creature seemed to have no intention of attacking.

Realizing this, Way Kai was taken back.

How could that be? If it didn't T1 attack me, why did it appear here? It nearly scared me to death.

Thinking this, he focused again and noticed that the creature was not attacking him.

Instead, there was a blue ghostly flame flickering in its skull.

The light flickered, seemingly trying to communicate with him.

You are you talking to me? Way Kai hesitated for a long time before asking.

As soon as the words left his mouth, the ghostly flame flickered several times and then remained steady.

Seeing this scene, Way Kai's mind went blank.

This thing was really talking to him.

But what did it want to say? Just as he was in a dilemma, the ghostly flame suddenly flashed and lunged toward him.

An ambush alarm bells went off in his mind as he quickly dodged to the side, trying to evade its attack.

But the next moment, a blood red number floated above his forehead.

306.

His health bar dropped by more than half.

Damn.

Way Kai cursed angrily and immediately retaliated with his sword, but the next scene left him dumbfounded.

The creature that had originally lunged at him did not chase after him.

Instead, started fighting the air.

No, not the air.

It was fighting an invisible monster in the darkness.

Way Kai suddenly realized then quickly glanced at the game prompt.

You were attacked by Night Terror Wind, losing 306 health points.

The one that attacked me wasn't te that creature, but the night terror wind lurking in the darkness.

Way Kai instantly came to his senses, swung his sword in a wide ark, and heard a clang as his great sword struck something hard in the darkness.

Sure enough, there was not just one night terror wind hiding in the darkness.

There were more monsters lying in weight to kill him.

Damn it, let us do this.

In the darkness, he couldn't he see the positions of the night terror winds, nor could he observe their attack patterns.

If he didn't te take the initiative to attack, he could only wait for death.

But fortunately, he had gone to the towist temple with Tion Shaoling last night and bought a lot of talismans.

The next moment, Wayai pulled out several talismans from his backpack and scattered them in front of him.

In the blink of an eye, golden light burst forth from the talismans, illuminating the surrounding darkness.

In that instant, Way Kai finally saw the appearance of the night terror winds and their numbers.

Seven of them.

The golden light faded quickly and the surroundings plunged back into darkness.

But the effect that followed left way Kai wideeyed.

Chapter 44.

Entrance to the secret realm.

A beam of golden light descended from the sky, freezing the six nightmare winds in place.

Soon after, several sword energies flew through the air, followed by a thunderous crash.
