151: Chapter 151 It was all true after all!

Upon hearing this, Shen Qingci was greatly alarmed.

"What? Kill that thing?"

Although she had anticipated this—after all, he wouldn't have appeared here just for that treasure—but regardless, this was an indescribable existence.

Shouldn't they make some preparations, do some planning, or formulate a strategy of some sort?

Is it really a good idea to just strike directly like this?

She was completely shocked and was just about to stop him, opening her mouth to say: "Wait, shouldn't you observe it first? That thing is..."

However, before she could finish her sentence, Su Lin had already thrown his Thunder Spear.

"Boom—!"

The moment the Thunder Spear left his hand, it erupted with an earth-shattering roar!

A purple stream of light, like divine punishment, dragged a blinding arc of electricity behind it and slammed fiercely into the massive creature atop the castle!

"Rumble—!"

Thunder exploded, and purple electrical arcs danced wildly across the creature's body!

The monster let out a painful roar, a sound so deafening that the entire space trembled.

Its body twisted violently, and white energy gushed out from the wound, scattering like blood.

The scattered energy landed on the surrounding monsters and the translucent houses.

Those monsters and houses immediately began to burn with white flames.

Su Lin was somewhat surprised.

"What kind of power is this?"

Seeing this scene, Shen Qingci immediately realized something.

"Wait, that's not right!"

"This thing is definitely not a god; it might not even be at the Immortal Level."

"After all, an attack of that magnitude could never easily injure an existence of that level."

"Yet, this massive existence before us was actually injured and let out such a painful roar."

"Although it is still exuding a terrifying aura, it's clearly just a bluff—strong on the outside but weak on the inside."

"Moreover, those indescribable existences cause terrifying mutations even if one just glances at them."

"But I've been looking at this monster for so long, and I haven't felt any discomfort at all."

"Caught off guard, seeing an existence suspected to be a god did indeed give me quite a scare."

"But now that I've calmed down, I've sorted out the situation."

"Without a doubt, this thing cannot be a god; it's even questionable if it's at the Dominator Level."

Shen Qingci turned to Su Lin and asked: "You knew it wasn't a god all along?"

Su Lin just smiled, his tone relaxed: "Isn't that obvious at a glance?"

He wasn't lying, either.

After all, he had read the Ancestor's notes and had long known that this thing was just an Empty Shell.

And after this shot, he was even more certain of his judgment.

This thing was just for show; it looked intimidating, but in reality, it possessed no power of a god.

If the Ancestor hadn't misjudged it back then, this thing would have been dealt with long ago.

However, he couldn't be bothered to explain that much.

However, upon hearing this, Shen Qingci was completely stunned.

"Obvious at a glance?"

She had just been scared out of her wits, thinking she had truly run into a god.

And he had seen through it at a glance?

The gap between them was just too large, wasn't it?

Sure enough, the man before her far exceeded her imagination in both strength and insight.

The people around the Gray-robed Masked Man were truly not simple.

However, Su Lin paid no mind to her shock.

Because the massive creature had already begun to move.

It opened its blurry, massive mouth and let out a deafening roar.

"Roar—!"

The terrifying sound waves spread in all directions, causing the space to warp slightly.

Immediately after, a surge of white energy poured out from its body, sweeping outward like a tidal wave.

Wherever that energy passed, the air became viscous, the ground began to crack, and gravel was pulverized into dust.

The aura was icy cold, sinister and evil, as if it wanted to devour everything in the world.

Su Lin frowned slightly.

Although this thing was just an Empty Shell, its strength was not to be underestimated.

Watching the surging energy, Shen Qingci sighed speechlessly.

She waved her hand, and a translucent barrier of space condensed in front of the three of them.

"Hum—!"

The white energy slammed into the barrier like waves crashing against a reef, scattering in all directions.

However, the barrier blocked all the attacks from the outside.

"This guy's power is strange," she said in a low voice. "Although it can't be a god, it's not simple either."

Watching this, Su Lin just smiled; he didn't refuse her protection.

He just said indifferently: "Regardless, our primary goal right now is to kill it."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qingci was momentarily stunned. She pointed at herself and asked: "I... do I have to kill it too?"

Su Lin replied in a relaxed tone: "That goes without saying."

Although this was just an Empty Shell, the power it possessed was still very strong; it was clearly not something that could be handled easily.

Shen Qingci was not weak, and as a practitioner of the Space Path, she could certainly help a lot and make their operation easier.

Not to mention, if anything happened, they might be able to look out for each other.

Shen Qingci was stunned for a moment upon hearing this.

She was also a bit curious: the Gray-robed Masked Man wanted to purge gods, but this was clearly not a god.

Then why did the Gray-robed Masked Man send Mr. Mask here?

Could it be that this thing was involved in some plan?

Because it was too simple, it was left to Mr. Mask to complete as a test?

Thinking of this, she tentatively voiced the doubt in her heart: "Is this also related to the God War?"

Upon hearing this, Su Lin was momentarily confused.

"Huh? The God War?"

"Isn't that just that so-called Ancestor causing trouble?"

"How did it get dragged into the God War?"

Su Lin had naturally heard of the God War.

It was said that a madman was hunting down Immortal Level and Forbidden Rank existences, wanting to ignite the God War.

Because of this, he was also very troubled, fearing he would be targeted by that madman.

However, why did she bring this up? Did it have any connection to the current situation?

Although he didn't know what she was overthinking, since he had already decided to make contact with the forces behind her, he might be able to take the opportunity to boost the reputation of the Gray Mist Council.

When the time came, he could fish in troubled waters and might even be able to reap quite a few benefits.

Thinking this, he went along with her words and said: "It's enough that you know; don't spread it around."

Su Lin's tone was serious, and his attitude was clear.

Upon hearing this, Shen Qingci was completely stunned.

"What?!"

"So, it was all true?"

The news of the God War had recently been spreading like wildfire in the supernatural circles.

But in the end, it had only remained within the realm of rumors and speculation.

After all, no one had really asked those two Forbidden Rank existences, and it was even less likely to get a definitive answer.

Various forces could only secretly infer and plan based on various clues.

And all sorts of subtle clues pointed in that direction.

Therefore, the various forces were already surging with undercurrents.

But now, could she consider this a definitive answer obtained from someone involved?

So the Gray-robed Masked Man was truly purging gods, and truly wanted to ignite the God War?

Shen Qingci was shocked for ten thousand years!
