Chapter 33, The Fearless Shadow Clan, Inheritors of Extraordinary Legacy

in the dark.

Lin Ran suddenly opened her eyes, a flash of bright silver light passing by.

The black dagger was fixed a foot in front of the throat, and a figure appeared out of thin air, its head slowly falling off.

After the body fell, no blood flowed out; instead, it exploded into a cloud of black mist with a bang and disappeared.

Lin Ran beckoned, and the crystal, now split in two, fell into her hand.

This was a Shadow Clan member who disguised himself as a human and intended to ambush him, but his ambush tactics were clearly inadequate.

Lin Ran flicked out a flame, rekindling the fire.

The flickering flames rose, dispelling the surrounding darkness. In the blink of an eye, they did not disturb Feng Wuhen and Yan Lingfei, who were resting.

Time passed, but the assassin in the darkness did not leave, waiting for the moment his prey would let its guard down.

Lin Ran maintained her pose, and wisps of darkness spread out from behind her, merging into the greater darkness.

He saw the assassin in the darkness; they were wisps of black mist with no fixed shape.

Only a pair of scarlet eyes were visible, while a jet-black dagger was hidden within the black mist.

Shadow Clan!

Twelve Shadow Clan members were hidden in the nearby darkness, three of them observing their surroundings while the other nine stared at him.

The Shadow Clan is naturally highly compatible with darkness, making it impractical to launch a sneak attack using dark spiritual energy.

Lin Ran paused for a moment, then suddenly stood up and turned her head.

The Shadow Clan noticed Lin Ran's movements but didn't take any further action; in the darkness, they were the true kings!

Snapped!

A Shadow Clan member's body suddenly exploded, the black mist rapidly dissipated, and the core shattered into three pieces that fell to the ground.

The other Shadow Clan members were slightly taken aback, and then another Shadow Clan member's body exploded, its core shattered.

The remaining Shadow Clan members realized that this human could see their location!

The next moment, all ten Shadow Clan members launched an attack on Lin Ranfa.

Lin Ran's gaze swept across the scene, and three Shadow Clan members were utterly destroyed. However, the remaining Shadow Clan members seemed fearless and charged towards him.

boom!

A jet-black dagger appeared out of thin air, but struck the crimson dragon scale armor, infusing the original blood energy with burning flames.

The dagger was blocked by the armor, and a flame shot up, instantly igniting the Shadow Clan member's body.

A large fireball appeared out of nowhere in the darkness. Lin Ran glanced at it, and the fireball instantly shattered and went out, another Shadow Clan member died.

boom……

The six daggers stabbed at the dragon scale armor one after another, hitting the same spot. Several dragon scales were shattered and disappeared, and the armor was also pierced. However, even the sixth dagger failed to touch Lin Ran's skin.

Six massive fireballs exploded and dissipated, with shattered cores falling to the ground.

[Hidden Dragon Body LV2→LV3: 50/1500]

Lin Ran beckoned and grabbed all the core members. The Shadow Clan's fearless behavior was truly abnormal.

He guessed that failure and retreat would have even more serious consequences, and that there was likely a force nearby that he could not detect watching them.

Lin Ran secretly became more vigilant, trying to find the hidden forces, but found nothing after a whole night.

As dawn approached, he woke up Feng Wuhen and Yan Lingfei to take their shifts, and then rested briefly.

……

The sky is bright.

Lin Ran woke up and glanced at the pattern on her wrist. It was still dim and lifeless, and she could not use it to escape the ruins for the time being.

"Captain, good morning, where are we going today?" Yan Lingfei greeted him, handing him a lunchbox.

"The core of the fire-removing part."

After breakfast, led by Yan Lingfei, the three set off.

According to Yan Lingfei's description, this world of ruins is roughly divided into two parts.

The Cat-People's transcendents are associated with fire, while the Shadow-People's transcendents are associated with darkness. The power remaining after their fall formed this relic, with each group occupying a core position.

Most of the precious resources have been taken away, but some legacies remain as rewards for meticulous exploration.

Every extraordinary individual is a legend. Even in the Human Alliance, with a population of hundreds of billions, there are only five or six hundred extraordinary individuals.

The legacy of extraordinary beings from other races provides a great reference for the development of the human race, and it is also the way in which the human race develops its path to transcendence.

If one obtains a transcendent inheritance suitable for the human race, becoming a powerful figure in one's own right is a piece of cake!

The cat-people are similar to the human race, and the legacy of this fallen cat-people superhuman is most likely also suitable for the human race.

As we traversed the vast wilderness, the darkness diminished, the crimson hues increased, and the temperature rose steadily.

The earth and sky were a sea of ​​crimson, with dense fire elemental energy floating in the air. The rapidly spinning fire elemental energy transformed into fiery tornadoes, threatening to tear everything apart.

Fire elemental energy is not suitable for absorption; it is filled with resentment and madness, the extraordinary grievances of the fallen cat-people.

Lin Ran led the way, with Yan Lingfei and Feng Wuhen close behind. The three of them bypassed the fire tornadoes and headed towards the center.

The scorching wind gradually intensified, and the air temperature exceeded 100 degrees Celsius, but this could not stop the three of them from their actions.

After several hours, the three finally reached the core area.

This place is a giant basin, with a bright red spot of light in the very center being particularly noticeable.

Lin Ran looked around and felt that there should have been something here, but it seemed like there had been an explosion?

"Yan Lingfei, was there an explosion here?" Lin Ran asked.

"Wait me a moment……"

Yan Lingfei closed her eyes, releasing her fire elemental energy to communicate with the fire elemental energy in the air.

Soon after, she opened her eyes.

"Indeed, this place was originally the palace of a cat-person superhuman. A cat-person obtained the inheritance inside and activated the alarm mechanism."

"Later, someone broke into this place and went all the way to the innermost part. They met the inheritor of the extraordinary legacy, triggered an explosion, and destroyed everything except the inheritor."

Lin Ran understood. No wonder he thought this place looked like a meteorite crater. He felt that no matter how bad the place where superhumans lived was, it couldn't be like this.

"So, that's the successor?"

Lin Ran squinted and looked at the bright red dot in the center of the basin.

The distance was too great, and there was also an obstruction, so he couldn't see clearly.

"It seems the one who received the inheritance is a cat-person. Shall we go take a look?"

"Let's go take a look."

Lin Ran nodded, thinking about how to obtain this inheritance and then exchange it for more resources.

It took the three of them more than ten minutes to reach the outside of the barrier.

"Yunzhu?" Yan Lingfei was surprised, yet thought it was quite normal.

Lin Ran stroked his chin, wondering how to make a catgirl listen to him.

Suddenly, the barrier enveloping Yunzhu shattered with a snap, and she, curled up, slowly fell down.

Lin Ran stepped forward and hugged her, and Yun Zhu woke up at the same time.

The orange ears twitched, and the eyes slowly opened, still looking confused.

"Brother Lin?"

"Hmm, you're awake?"

"I remember I was in a palace?" Yunzhu rubbed her forehead, her tail naturally wrapping around Lin Ran's wrist.

"Someone broke into the palace and triggered an explosion. The palace and the enemy were destroyed together. I came here to see what else was there, but that was also destroyed. How much did you take?" Lin Ran asked directly.

"We've got all the information, but not a single resource. Do you want it, Brother Lin?" Yunzhu blinked, sensing Lin Ran's vague thoughts.

"Yes, I want it."

Yunzhu smiled and pulled Lin Ran over, pressing her forehead against Lin Ran's forehead.

"Here you go, Brother Lin, come closer."
