Chapter 54 Paper Saves Lives

Fang Yue was instantly stunned.

"What exactly was that just now…"

Fang Yue looked in astonishment at his [Bewildered Transformation] thumb.

His entire right palm was devoid of flesh and blood, completely turning into white bone.

Only the [Bewildered Transformation] thumb maintained its paper form, standing proudly, out of place with the surrounding bones, like a general guarding the frontier, holding the pass against ten thousand enemies.

Fang Yue was shocked. He thought it was a backlash, a Bewildered Transformation consequence, but it had saved his life!

The eerie curse [Black Rain] seemed to fear the parchment, becoming afraid to move.

Clearly, just now, after losing the recovery effect of [Breath of the Night], the eerie curse [Black Rain] had retaliated like crazy, frantically devouring the flesh and blood of his palm, but when it reached the [Bewildered Transformation] thumb, it suddenly stopped.

Parchment, forever a god!

Fang Yue had previously thought he was done for, frantically calling out to the parchment in his heart.

But the parchment remained deeply asleep, without any reaction.

In the previous battle with Bai Xiaoya, Fang Yue had used the power of the parchment even more than during the Gu Yue Village incident.

Originally, the parchment had been suffering from the aftereffects of the Gu Yue Village battle, needing a lot of rest to recover its power. Now, he had overdrafted it again, and who knew how long it would sleep before waking up.

But there was no choice. Fang Yue had exhausted all his means. His only hope was to burn his remaining lifespan, allowing the parchment to continuously use [Time Reversal], helping him hold out until Black Cyan Canyon.

As a result, the parchment didn't come out, but the eerie curse [Black Rain] suddenly stopped, and [Night Rain] stopped with it.

But what was the situation now? Stuck in between…

Fang Yue lowered his head to look at the eerie curse [Black Rain], and then looked up at the big black cloud above.

Suddenly, Fang Yue's pupils contracted sharply.

It was as if the eerie curse [Black Rain] had withdrawn.

The huge dark cloud above slowly dissipated, revealing the sun!

The morning sun shone on Fang Yue's body, giving him a feeling of rebirth for a moment.

The clouds… had dissipated?!

The effect of the eerie curse [Black Rain] had passed??

Coming back to his senses, a surge of joy flooded his heart.

Fang Yue collapsed to the ground, trembling all over, gasping for breath as if he had survived a catastrophe, and burst out laughing.

The aftereffects of the [Cape Pill] then swept in like a tide.

Every part of Fang Yue's body ached. He was covered in wounds, and his eyelids were so heavy that he just wanted to lie down, close his eyes, and ignore everything.

But, he couldn't!

He still had to get up, still had to run!

Because with the disappearance of [Night Rain] and the dissipation of the black clouds, the monsters in the distance could finally approach Fang Yue.

The tide-like army of monsters gathering was something the current Fang Yue couldn't deal with at all.

So he had to escape, get up and escape immediately!

Looking down at his pitted body, like a mud figure washed by a rainstorm, many parts of his body revealed white bones, and blood flowed directly from the wounds, his appearance was simply horrible.

Biting his teeth, Fang Yue still got up and immediately started running.

Fortunately, after running a distance forward, he found a small merchant caravan traveling on the road.

Seeing Fang Yue's ghostly appearance, and the dark mass of monsters following behind, the small caravan was scared out of their wits.

Those who were walking jumped onto the carriages in a scramble, whipping the horses madly to escape.

But how could Fang Yue let them go? He sped up to catch up, snatched a horse, threw down a black stone, and galloped away.

However, these merchants didn't care about the money, their lives were at stake.

"The horse, the horse is gone!"

Someone in the caravan exclaimed in horror, his face pale.

But no one paid attention to him, because behind Fang Yue, the vast army of monsters was the real threat of death!

Losing a horse only meant less mobility for them, but facing the monster horde, it was a true place of no burial.

Everyone screamed and wailed, but as the monster horde passed by, the monsters, which usually devoured every living thing they saw, seemed uninterested in this small caravan, passing by as if they were nothing, their target directly at the person who had just snatched the horse, rumbling through the village road, passing by the small caravan, and rushing into the distance.

Watching the monster horde gradually disappear, everyone looked at each other, their faces full of confusion and astonishment.

No one dared to believe that they had encountered such a large number of monsters and were still alive??

"What exactly was that person just now…"

"Don't know, never seen him before."

"Being chased by so many monsters, what did he do?"

Everyone discussed, only the caravan boss silently picked up the black stone on the ground, bit it with his teeth, and immediately showed a look of joy.

It was actually the real thing?!

What a generous boss!

Ordinary horses like theirs could be bought with silver, but in terms of the value of the black stone, this was a markup of who knows how many times.

Just as they were collecting their minds and preparing to continue on their way.

Rumble…

The earth, trembled.

In the far distance, more monsters, a vast number of monsters, were charging towards this side!

And in the sky, there were even groups of flying monsters, ignoring the terrain and flying towards this side.

Above, below, a vast number of them were gathering in this direction!

With a clang, the black stone in the caravan boss's hand fell to the ground.

He stared blankly at this scene, his mind going blank.

"How… how can there be so many monsters!"

It wasn't just him, everyone else was frightened, stunned.

They thought the previous wave of monsters was already abnormal enough.

But compared to the scene before them, the previous wave was just an appetizer!

If the number of monsters was small, this caravan might still try to fight or escape.

But with the number of monsters so large, they had completely given up hope, their hearts were filled with despair, their eyes were a dead silence.

But those in this line of work always had their heads tied to their belts, and everyone was mentally prepared, but truly facing certain death was still unacceptable.

And this scene was also happening in the Black Green Mountain Range, on various village roads, in various areas.

For the first time, the monsters in the Black Green Mountain Range had such a collective action. The dark mass of the monster army brought despair that drowned everything.

However, after the monsters passed, everyone found that… they were completely fine.

It was as if this huge monster army had a precise target and did not do any unnecessary things.

After the shock, everyone was immediately filled with mixed feelings, celebrating as if they had survived a catastrophe.

And after these 'survivors' arrived at their respective villages and exchanged information.

They discovered that all the monsters in the Black Green Mountain Range were chasing after one person—Ye Baiyi of Green Silk County!
