Chapter 602: Familiar Feelings

"According to the gloom and depression in the air, this realm should be full of death and despaired souls.
"Even if the physical remains had been hidden somewhere under the sand, it should not make the air this uncomfortable, unless countless souls died in extreme agony and never got to leave this area.
"However, if the souls never left the area, the air should also not be like this. The soul energy should be present. Even if we can't use it to cultivate, I should still be able to sense it somewhere, but this realm is completely devoid of soulpower."
Luoluo's brows were furrowed, and the more she spoke, the more solemn the whole group became. Many things did not add up, and these things made them all feel uncomfortable.
"Let us take a step back and guess that maybe these chaotic souls had gathered together and become a vengeful spirit, there has to be some sort of ripple in the aura, but what I sense is not pure hatred that should be present within a vengeful spirit, instead it is despair and hopelesness."
Luoluo's frown suddenly loosened as her eyes widened and a trace of disbelief and confusion appeared within her eyes.
"I feel as if I have experienced this feeling before."
Although Luoluo spoke hesitatingly, she would not mention it unless she was confident in her memory of this feeling, but her hesitation was still obvious.
While she remembered the feeling very clearly, she could not remember when or where it was from.
"My memory of when I was locked up at the Garden of Shadows is faulty, but I am quite certain that this feeling originates from there."
Xue Wei and the others looked doubtful, but they did not question the truth of her words, instead they tried to figure out why this feeling would appear both places.
"Actually, this feeling is not only from the Garden of Shadows. I might not be completely certain, but after spending some time trying to recognize the feeling, I also find it somewhat similar to the aura that we encountered on the island within the Thunder Twilight Zone that we entered during our travels in the Sea of the Enchanted."
Bai Tianyi was also trying to sense the aura, but unlike the uncertain Luoluo, he seemed to remember this gloomy feeling much more certainly.
"Why would the same feeling appear in both the Thunder Twilight Zone and the Garden of Shadows?"
Lin Xiao could not help but ask the question that all of them were thinking about. Although he had been part of their group during both of these adventures, he did not remember many things these two areas had in common.
Xue Wei seemed to have a thought flashing past, but it was too quick for him to grasp, and he felt as if he was ignoring something important.
Hei Gou was standing aside. He was present during both adventures, but his memories were locked up somewhere within a mist in the depth of his mind, so he was not able to help them figure out anything if it depended on their past experiences.
"I feel as if I am missing something important. There is a memory looming in my mind, but I can't grasp it properly." Xue Wei's eyes were narrowed and he looked into the horizon as he tried to catch this vague memory. He felt that it might be a lead to figuring out what was happening.
Luoluo frowned. She did not remember much details about her time in the Garden of Shadows. Her spirit had been severely harmed and even the time she spent being locked up was was vague and hazy, not to mention the rescue.
The time in the Thunder Twilight Zone were a bit more distinct in her memory, but even so, she could not pinpoint anything specific that could explain the current situation.
"We have to keep moving. Even if we are facing something more dangerous than initially expected, it is no longer possible for us to retreat."
Xue Wei's brows were still furrowed, but he knew that they could not spend too much time considering these vague worries.
"For now, the most dangerous thing are the creatures that keeps looming around us. Even if there is something more dangerous hidden within this No Man's Land, we should not worry about it for now.
"The dangers that are in front of us cannot be ignored. If we are preoccupied with these hidden threats, we will end in the stomach of some beasts before we can get harmed by something hidden.
"If this gloomy feeling has some sort of connection with our previous adventures, then it is very likely that it also has some sort of connection to the unknown enemy we are facing. Since this is the case, then things will be unraveled at some time, so for now, we just have to do our best to survive."
Although Xue Wei's words might sound as if he was pushing aside the troubles, there was truly no other option. The No Man's Land where they were right now was not simple, and surviving was already difficult. If they had something else to confuse them, they might end up dead.
"It is truly a desperate situation."
Lin Xiao could not help but smile wryly as he shook his head. The unknown enemy had pushed them to their limits. Although they were perfectly well aware of the dangers within this No Man's Land, there was truly no other way to get to their destination.
They had to risk their lives and suffer unmeasurable horrors, and even so, their future survival was still uncertain.
