Blood rain fell on their bodies and faces, scalding like boiling water the instant it touched the skin, causing many Treasure Hunters to cry out in surprise.
Such a bizarre and horrifying scene left everyone in a panic, their only thought being to quickly find shelter from the rain.
Everyone scattered and fled, rushing toward the nearest trees or searching for gaps beneath the rock walls, hoping to find some protection.
Lin Chuqiao and the others also hurriedly sought refuge with the crowd and soon found a hiding place under a relatively concealed rock wall.
"What’s going on? Could breaking the Golden Benba Bottle have triggered some taboo?"
Bai Ling’s face showed a look of terror, her eyes wide as she stared at the blood rain pouring outside.
"Who cares, the rain won’t kill us no matter how hard it falls, we’ll leave as soon as it stops."
Big Hammer squatted on the ground, scratching his head, completely unconcerned:
"Besides, I feel like the rain falling on me is warm, it’s actually quite comfortable."
As he spoke, he even reached out his hand, trying to catch a few drops of the blood-colored rain to examine them closely.
"Big Hammer, be careful!"
Lin Chuqiao quickly warned him, "Now is the time to be cautious, we mustn’t casually touch such strange things."
As she spoke, her eyes showed a grave expression, and she raised her gaze to the blood rain in the sky, trying to discern its source.
Unfortunately, aside from a thick red and darkness, she couldn’t see anything.
The blood rain continued to drizzle without any sign of stopping.
The air was filled with a pungent smell of blood, mingled with the mist from the mountain, forming a layer of bloody haze.
The smell was overpowering, making it difficult to breathe, while simultaneously giving off a deadly allure.
Suddenly, the Professor’s voice came clearly through the Spiritual Link:
"Xiao Chu, is there a phenomenon of blood rain happening on your side?"
"Yes, yes, it’s terrifying, just like a horror movie."
Before Lin Chuqiao could answer, Bai Ling quickly interjected, then asked with full curiosity:
"Professor, why is blood rain falling from the sky? Haven’t we left the Inner World?"
The Professor paused briefly, seemingly choosing his words carefully, then responded:
"You could say that we are both in the Inner World and the Outer World, in a state of quantum superposition."
Bai Ling’s mouth slightly opened, clearly unable to understand such profound philosophical concepts.
Lin Chuqiao, Big Hammer, and Monkey heard and were equally confused.
"I can’t contact the White Ghost right now, but I can confirm that he has successfully destroyed the array."
Seeing everyone’s confusion, the Professor tried to explain in simpler terms:
"The Secret Realm for the Lu Family to safeguard the Ancestor Spirit was in the process of transitioning but was interrupted halfway, resulting in only half the transition being completed and failing to solidify completely."
"As a result, the entire Mist Mountain is in an extraordinarily unique situation, where the Inner World and Outer World spatial dimensions intermingle and transform, in a continuous dynamic process."
"This transformation from chaos to stability is akin to the balance between Yin and Yang, although complex, fortunately, it won’t last long."
After elaborating, the Professor suddenly stopped, his tone slightly hurried:
"Now is a unique opportunity, hurry and go out to get soaked in the rain!"
"What, soaked in blood rain?"
Everyone was even more astonished upon hearing this, as if they heard something unbelievable.
