My Talent Skill Mutated

There might be great danger ahead.

But having come this far, they had no intention of retreating.

Liu Mei looked at Chen Yu. ”Should we go over now?”

Chen Yu nodded lightly. ”Of course.”

’We’ve come this far. We have to see what’s on the other side.’

The unknown could bring fear, but more than that, it brought curiosity!

Having reached an agreement, the two of them moved, heading toward the gap.

Before, with the volcano blocking the way and the Lava Monster present, Liu Mei hadn’t known what was on the other side of the island. Now, arriving before the gap, she looked through and saw not a primeval forest, but a stretch of gray, hazy Chaos.

Though only a single footstep away, it was as if they were two different worlds!

”This is...”

Liu Mei stared at the gray, hazy Chaos before her and instinctively glanced at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu’s brow was tightly furrowed as he gazed at the vast Chaos.

’My Force Field sense has failed!’

This gray, hazy Chaos seemed to contain some special power that his Force Field sense could not penetrate.

The final step before them was like crossing a line between life and death.

”Be careful,” Chen Yu said. As he spoke, he took the first step, striding into the gray, hazy Chaos.

Watching Chen Yu step in, Liu Mei activated her Qi, enveloping her entire body. Fully prepared, she followed him in.

HUMMM—!

The instant they entered the gray, hazy Chaos, a strange fluctuation washed over them.

An irresistible wave of dizziness struck—a violent, world-spinning sensation that shook them to their very souls.

Even Chen Yu’s Spirit Flame couldn’t withstand the vertigo.

It felt as if they were falling into another Abyss.

The dizziness came as quickly as it went.

In just a moment, the two of them recovered.

The gray, hazy Chaos was gone. Before them now was a vast Gobi desert.

Looking back, they could clearly see the other half of the island from where they stood.

”This must be some kind of Spiritual Illusion Realm,” Liu Mei analyzed.

Chen Yu nodded, agreeing with her guess.

This was indeed a Spiritual Illusion Realm.

However, it wasn’t actively triggered; it was passive.

Coming back to his senses, Chen Yu turned his gaze to the Gobi desert before them.

He activated his Force Field sense again, but it was still useless. The mysterious, special power suppressed it, making it impossible to investigate his surroundings.

Not being able to sense his surroundings was extremely dangerous.

He could only see what was in his line of sight. Beyond that, any danger could befall them.

A terrifying creature like the Lava Monster guarded the crossing point. There was no guarantee that this other half of the island didn’t have similar beasts—or even more fearsome ones.

”Chen Yu, I think we should stick together. What do you say?” Liu Mei said, looking at him.

”No problem,” Chen Yu nodded.

”We can’t sense very far here, so we need to be careful,” Chen Yu reminded her. Liu Mei nodded.

With that, the two headed deeper into the Gobi desert.

...

The vast Gobi desert seemed to stretch on without end.

Two figures flew through the air.

From their aerial vantage point, they had a much wider view.

They had traveled for several hundred kilometers, yet they hadn’t encountered a single beast.

This place seemed to be a forbidden zone for life.

It was terrifyingly quiet!

This bizarre situation made the two of them even more vigilant.

’The quieter it is, the more likely there’s a problem.’

”Hey, Chen Yu, look!”

Just then, Liu Mei suddenly pointed toward a spot in the distant desert.

Chen Yu’s gaze followed her finger to the desert floor far away.

There, in the middle of the vast Gobi, a classical European-style castle stood silently on the land.

After traveling hundreds of kilometers without seeing any signs of civilization or life, the sudden appearance of a classical European-style castle left Chen Yu stunned.

”Should we go take a look?” Liu Mei looked at Chen Yu.

”Yeah. Be careful,” Chen Yu agreed.

Having made a new discovery, they naturally couldn’t pass it up.

A castle like this appearing in the middle of a vast Gobi desert felt truly out of place.

WHOOSH—!

The two sped up and soon arrived before the enormous castle.

Their figures landed on the ground, and Chen Yu looked at the castle before him.

It was similar to the castle where he had met the True God in the inner city of Hai City.

This castle, however, looked much older.

It seemed to have been weathered by the winds and frosts of countless years.

The castle gates were tightly shut. The two walked up to the entrance, and Chen Yu reached out and gave the door a push.

The ancient castle gates swung open with ease, revealing the scene inside.

A straight path led into the castle’s interior. On both sides of the path were a lawn and rows of neatly arranged trees.

Amidst the vast Gobi desert, this was the first patch of green the two had seen.

Walking onto the castle grounds, Chen Yu looked around.

The lawn was clean, and the trees grew in neat rows. It looked as if someone maintained the grounds.

There wasn’t a single fallen leaf on the ground.

And yet, there wasn’t a soul in sight.

Not letting their guard down, they walked deeper toward the castle, ready to act at a moment’s notice.

’This place is truly bizarre.’

After crossing the straight path, the two arrived at the castle’s first great hall.

It was also very clean here, the floor spotless.

There was no dust.

”Does someone live here?” Liu Mei asked in surprise.

A clean floor without a speck of dust, immaculate walls—this really didn’t seem like an empty castle. It was more like someone lived here regularly.

There’s no way it would be this clean unless someone was maintaining it.

With his Force Field sense unable to investigate, Chen Yu also couldn’t say for sure whether anyone lived here.
