My Silly, Sweet Wife-Chapter 1057: The Hidden Gate Is Truly a Gate
In the next second, before everyone could understand what was happening.
The stone had completely shattered.
Then, a fist-sized, seemingly substantial black mass shot out from the stone.
The black mass dashed straight into Master Pang's body.
Before Master Pang could react, his body seemed to be drained instantly, turning into a mummy in the blink of an eye.
"Yin...yīnwù!" Master Pang's eyes quickly lost their vitality, and he uttered two words as he fell to the ground.
Wen Cangfeng and the others were aghast: "Quickly, activate the emergency plan and seal this place!"
He did not expect such an event to happen.
However, that black mass seemed to possess spiritual sense; after draining Master Pang, it swiftly floated outside, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Wen Cangfeng hurriedly chased after it, holding a talisman in his hand, ready to capture the black mass.
After the black mass flew out, it soon began colliding with the glass imprisoning the alien beasts and ghostly entities.
The glass was specially made, normally impossible to break no matter the force, even the glass imprisoning the red specter could prevent ghostly entities from escaping.
However, it seemed that this black mass had immense strength, and with just a few collisions, it quickly shattered the glass.
"Hee hee!"
The red specter appeared exhilarated, chuckling softly as it rushed out of the glass enclosure, quickly floating outside.
Not only that, many other pieces of glass shattered, and the things inside frantically dashed out.
The previously imprisoned white-haired zombie seemed somewhat bewildered, unsure what was happening, but seeing many others escape, hesitated slightly, then violently broke through the glass, rushing out.
The entire underground base descended into chaos.
However, fortunately, the people here seemed to know how to handle these things.
Almost as soon as the black mass escaped, everyone sprang into action.
"Quickly, don't let them escape!"
Wen Cangfeng gave the order, and no one dared to care about Ye Guichen anymore.
Wen Cangfeng, with a sword in one hand and talisman paper in the other, aimed to subdue the red specter.
Many others held guns that shot not bullets, but large red nets.
One of the nets trapped a creature resembling a monkey, but the creature screamed and tore the red net apart, though it left many scorch marks on its body.
However, more nets were quickly shot, covering the creature again.
Soon, the creature that resembled a monkey lay on the ground, rolling.
When Ye Guichen rushed out, he saw the white-haired zombie also breaking out from its neck enclosure.
However, upon seeing Ye Guichen, the zombie appeared startled, hesitated for a moment, then rushed back into the glass enclosure, curling up its head, too scared to confront Ye Guichen.
The entire underground base was in chaos.
Although Ye Guichen didn't understand what was happening, faced with this, he didn't dare to be negligent and quickly rushed to help.
They worked for over an hour.
Most of the things that had escaped were recaptured.
However, the casualties in the underground base were considerable.
Wen Cangfeng was also injured, looking grim: "Did anything escape?"
Everyone lowered their heads.
Cai You said solemnly: "The red specter is gone, and the black mist that emerged from the stone is also missing."
"Damn it!" Wen Cangfeng cursed under his breath: "Then why are you still standing here? Go out and search!"
After giving orders to clean up the site, Wen Cangfeng called Ye Guichen aside: "Mr. Ye, do you know what's going on?"
Ye Guichen shook his head: "I do not know either."
"To be honest, Brother Ye, someone once examined that stone and said it might have come from a place full of yin energy, where a yin spirit might have formed, but nothing happened for so many years. Do you really have no feeling about it?" Wen Cangfeng was somewhat suspicious of Ye Guichen.
After all, it was after Ye Guichen touched it that such an anomaly occurred: "Moreover, now that the red specter has escaped, that female ghost is extremely terrifying, living for at least a century with heavy resentment. Once it entangles ordinary people, it might not take long for them to die. We must capture her before she kills anyone."
Ye Guichen was extremely embarrassed: "I dare not say I have no responsibility in this matter, whether it's the black mass or the red specter. I am partly responsible, Wen Taibao, rest assured, I will not stand idly by."
"Good, thank you!" Wen Cangfeng had no way to deal with Ye Guichen now.
He just wanted to test Ye Guichen's potential, not anticipating such an event.
However, before sending Ye Guichen off, Wen Cangfeng gave him a Compass, telling him it could find places with strong yin energy, and if there were traces of the red specter, the Compass would indicate it.
Ye Guichen agreed.
After sending Ye Guichen away, Wen Cangfeng gathered Jin Ling and Cai You again.
"What do you think?" Wen Cangfeng asked, gazing at the space between Jin Ling and Cai You.
There was no one there initially, but as Wen Cangfeng spoke, a silhouette slowly appeared.
The figure was wearing a black robe with disheveled hair, exuding a strange and eerie aura.
He lifted his head, and his hollow eyes seemed to pierce through: "Cangfeng, I told you before, that stone is very likely from the Yinming Land, and something ghostly was sealed within it, but you refused to listen. Now that thing has escaped, it could be a major problem for the world."
Wen Cangfeng frowned: "I know, but this was at the behest of Lord Military God. Now the Hidden Sect Seven Kings are restless, and many ghosts and monsters frequently appear. When Ye Guichen easily captured the white-haired zombie, I wanted to test how capable he really is, but unexpectedly, he caused the stone to break, letting the thing inside escape."
Pausing for a moment, Wen Cangfeng shook his head: "I didn't anticipate it, had I known, I would not have been so reckless."
Cai You and Jin Ling listened, puzzled, seemingly not understanding.
Jin Ling quickly asked: "Brother Wen, Gui Tuo Grand Protector, what are you talking about?"
The figure that appeared was indeed the Grand Protector under the Military God, Gui Tuo.
Apart from Military God Chu Tiannan and a very few others, almost no one had seen him, nor knew his origins and identity.
Gui Tuo lifted his head, his hollow eyes gazing at Jin Ling: "Jin Ling, you don't understand, the ghostly entity sealed inside that stone must be very powerful. Its breaking might have been due to fear, and during the Hidden Sect's chaos back then, there circulated a rumor that twenty-three years later, the Hidden Sect would reopen, at which time, ghosts and monsters would ravage the world, turning it into a purgatory."
