What was with this dense deathly aura?

Looking at the dense deathly aura above everyone's heads, Chen Heng could not help but frown as he thought to himself.

Based on his understanding towards fate, deathly aura would only appear when someone was going to meet a fated calamity.

Moreover, he had never seen so much deathly aura gathered together.

Every single person on this street was covered with a dense deathly aura.

This was not a normal situation.

"Calamity" Chen Heng muttered to himself.

If so many people simultaneously had deathly aura, the largest possibility was that all of them were going to face an apocalyptic event for so many of them to die.

Just what was this calamity going to be?

Chen Heng thought to himself.

Chen Heng walked along the street and passed by a tall building.

The building was covered with glass, and Chen Heng's saw his reflection in the glass.

On the face of things, he just looked like a handsome young man.

He wore light robes and had a calm expression, but what surprised Chen Heng was that above his head, he also had that gray deathly aura.

The deathly aura spiraled above his head, not dissipating and seeming quite strange.

"Even me"

Looking at this scene, Chen Heng could not help but frown.

He did not expect that even he would be caught up in all of this.

Standing there and looking at himself in the glass, he frowned before leaving.

Following this, Chen Heng got on a bus and began to go around the city.

Through the window, Chen Heng saw many people. However, all of them had deathly aura over their heads.

This was the case for everyone in the city.

Seeing this, Chen Heng's heart thumped and felt a bad feeling.

The range of this calamity was bigger than he had thought. It seemed that it was not just this city.

As a large city in modern times, many people would come to and leave from this city every day. Many people did not live here and would leave soon.

As such, Chen Heng had purposefully gone to a train station to have a look.

Every person there also had dense deathly aura over their heads, meaning that they were all covered by the calamity.

This calamity was not just limited to this city and spread far further than Chen Heng had expected.

The worst case scenario was that the entire earth would be covered by this calamity.

When Chen Heng thought about this, even he felt greatly startled.

A calamity that covered the entire earth? Just what could that be?

Following this, Chen Heng turned and looked towards the sky.

Many strands of fate intersected, forming a massive sky net.

This sky net represented the fate of all living creatures. It was just that as Chen Heng activated the Fortune Mark, he could clearly see that beneath the sky net, there was a dense deathly aura.

The roiling deathly aura gathered together like a storm, looking quite terrifying.

Right now, the sea of deathly aura still looked quite calm, but that did not mean this would go on.

Hidden beneath the stillness of that deathly aura was a terrifying calamity.

Sensing this, Chen Heng frowned and turned before leaving.

On the way, he thought about possibilities for the future.

In his mind, the Fortune Mark gave off a light, and Chen Heng controlled it to run various predictions to see what kind of calamity there would be.

In the end, he could not do it.

Fate was incredibly mysterious and difficult to predict.

Even though Chen Heng had the Fortune Mark, he only had a key to observing the net of fate. Using this key to predict everything in the future was not realistic.

Moreover, the current net of fate was covered with a dense deathly aura, which made the sky net even more difficult to observe.

Let alone Chen Heng, even Tian Xingzi, who had given the Fortune Mark to Chen Heng, would not necessarily be able to predict what would happen.

After trying a few times, Chen Heng's face quickly became pale.

He had received a backlash as he had tried to forcefully predict the future without having sufficient strength.

As such, he gave up on this and walked elsewhere.

Soon, he had reached a bustling street with countless people walking about and cars driving about.

This was the heart of this bustling city and was incredibly lively.

In front of Chen Heng was an old alley.

The old alley looked quite dilapidated and there were many structures within it.

Within it, there were mysterious marks.

"It expanded again" Chen Heng thought to himself.

Apart from this, Chen Heng also had some new discoveries.

A violet aura appeared, and with the help from the Fortune Mark, some energy rushed out of Chen Heng's body.

Dense light flashed as a new energy settled on Chen Heng's body.

With the Fortune Mark's help, Chen Heng's vision changed and saw things that could not normally be seen.

He could see that there was a dense deathly aura in the distance that was gathering here before connecting to the sky net.

It seemed that this place was a gathering place for the deathly aura and was connected to the net of fate in the sky.

This was enough to prove Chen Heng's guesses.

"So it really was related to this" Chen Heng's expression was serious as he thought to himself.

This old alleyway being connected to the sky net was quite important.

This meant that the incoming calamity had to do with this old alleyway.

As for what kind of relationship it was, Chen Heng had no idea right now.

Thinking to there, Chen Heng lowered his head and sank into his thoughts.

In his mind, information quickly appeared.

An expanding old alleyway, more and more demons, as well as the strange scenes that those Grandmasters had seen

In just an instant, Chen Heng thought of many possibilities.

"Could it be related to the demons or those strange scenes?" Chen Heng wondered.

At that moment, the sound of footsteps suddenly sounded out.

Chen Heng instinctively looked to the side.

Not too far away, there was a figure walking.

It was a young man dressed in black robes, and his looks were quite good. He looked quite gentlemanly and held an umbrella in his hand.

Right now, he was slowly walking forwards, and his destination seemed to be that old alleyway.

Seeing this, Chen Heng felt quite surprised and did not know what to do.

This old alleyway only looked like an old alleyway to him, but to everyone else, it was just an empty area.

For some reason, when others entered this alleyway, they would not feel that there was anything strange.

After all, what was so strange about an empty plot of land.

Chen Heng did not prepare to say anything to that person.

Since this was just an empty plot of land to others, if he told them to stay away, they would not understand and feel that he was quite strange.

Moreover, he had done that experiment in the past.

When others had entered the old alleyway, their appearances greatly changed.

He did not think much of this and prepared to leave.

However, the ensuing scene caused him to freeze.

The young man slowly entered the old alleyway, but his appearance did not change.

Seeing this, Chen Heng stopped in his tracks.

"His appearance did not change why is that?"

He felt quite curious and wondered if there was something different about the old alleyway, or if it was because that person was special.

Soon, he received the answer.

As that person entered the old alleyway, there seemed to be something that reacted to him.

The inscriptions on the walls began to twist, after which a massive arm stretched out and grabbed towards that person.

Chen Heng saw this clearly, but that person did not seem to notice at all.

From how he saw it, there was most likely just an empty plot of land.

The young man continued ahead, and the massive arm came closer and closer to him.

A hazy face seemed to appear, looking incredibly terrifying.

Looking at the young man, that face gave a sinister grin, and its eyes were filled with bitter resentment.

The arm came closer and closer to the young man from behind.

Suddenly, a white arm stretched out.

The young man did not turn and only casually swung his hand.

It was as if the scene froze, after which a formless energy spread out and scattered everything.

"This is"

Seeing this, Chen Heng felt quite surprised.

Ahead, the dense structures all disappeared.

It was like they were shadows being chased away by sunlight or they were water that had evaporated; all of those things all disappeared and turned into shadows that scattered on the ground.

The old alleyway was quickly shrinking, and as the young man continued to walk forwards, the old alleyway continued to become smaller.

Bang!!

A clear sound rang out, as if something had shattered.

In front of Chen Heng, a massive hole appeared at the end of the old alleyway.

Looking at this black hole, the black-robed young man did not hesitate and directly stepped into it.

As Chen Heng watched on, the black-robed young man disappeared.

"He's gone," Chen Heng frowned.

He looked around and found that the scene had changed.

The old alleyway had disappeared and this area just looked like a plot of empty land.

It seemed that everything had gone back to normal.

Chen Heng took a few steps forwards and found that the sinister and cold aura had indeed disappeared.

"Just who was that person?"

Looking at the black hole and thinking of that scene, he could not help but frown.

At this moment, he seemed to have found another side to this world, and he had seen something that was usually hidden.

That young man had been able to destroy that abnormality with a wave of his hand, causing this area to return to normal.

"Just who was he? And what kind of power did he have?" Chen Heng could not help but think to himself.

If he wanted to find an answer, the best way would be to pass through that black hole and see if he could find that young man.

However, that was a bit too dangerous.

Chen Heng was not in a simulation right now; this was his real body.

If he died here, he would stay dead.

If he took such a risk in this kind of situation, that would be extremely unwise.

In that case, should he just wait here?

That was not a bad choice.

Since that young man had gone through the black hole, it seemed that he had come here for the old alleyway.

He would most likely be back here after he had finished doing what he had come to do.

When that time came, interacting with him here would be much safer.

However, Chen Heng had no idea who this person was or what special abilities he had.

Rashly interacting with him would not necessarily be a good idea.

Many thoughts flashed through Chen Heng's mind.

In the end, Chen Heng stood there for a while before turning and leaving.

Time gradually passed.

At dusk, ripples began to spread out from that place.
