Chapter 2649

Dwight and Cayden seemed unable to see the dark shadowy figure as they approached Wrendell to take a closer look.

Dwight redid Wrendell's bandages properly again and said, "You need to calm down. And you, Cayden, are so terrified of night patrols. Where did you get all the courage to do such things now?"

"Oh, Dwight, why are you saying this all of a sudden?"

Just like that, the three of them talked and goofed around for about an hour. Dwight and Cayden then left some kind reminders before leaving because Wrendell needed to rest for his injury to get better.

As soon as they left, the dark shadowy figure spoke again, "Don't be so reckless next time. Look how worried your peers are about you."

Wrendell did not say anything. He slowly lay down and stared at the stars outside the window in a daze.

At this time, the dark shadowy figure floated back into Wrendell's body.

Wrendell stared at the moonlight in a daze. At this moment, he had thousands of thoughts in his mind.

'Did I really do something wrong? The martial brothers here on Abundance Mountain are very easy-going. My life here is easy because no one here will accuse me of my past. I can feel relaxed and at ease.

'But is this really okay? If I continue to live like this, would I become like my martial brothers and gradually lose sight of everything... At that time, would I be happy or sad?'

"What do you think about this?"

However, the shadowy figure did not answer him no matter how carefully he called out.

"Are you asleep..."

It was a long night. The moon hung high in the sky, and the ground was illuminated by the moonlight. However, darkness remained.

Reese swaggered toward the back of Abundance Mountain. He would not just stay there like a sitting duck.

The moment Reese arrived at the back of the mountain, countless shadows appeared before his eyes. He could see many demons and monsters appear, but he showed no signs of fear.

"Just in time! Looks like I'm in the right place!" Reese exclaimed as he rushed into the mountain.

Many more demons appeared along the way, but he ended them one by one with a punch. It was a clean kill with no hesitation.

However, the further he walked, the more he felt something was wrong.

The mountain did not look big, so according to Reese's traveling speed, he should probably be able to see the cliff soon. However, why was he unable to see the end despite running at extreme speed for more than ten minutes?

Reese quickly stopped and muttered, "Hmph, it's not as simple as it seems."

He kept looking around and found that the pathways around him were exactly the same. It was obvious that he was trapped in an illusion.

However, Reese was not afraid at all.

Since it was only an illusion, he could wake up as long as he had external stimulation. He then punched himself in the left arm.

Good lord, this man had no mercy even to himself. If he had punched an ordinary cultivator, that person would have been knocked away long ago.

Reese only stumbled a few steps back from the impact. Then, the pain came, and he woke up from the illusion. A black shadow the size of a baby fell off his back.

Reese recognized that this was also a demon, so he punched it away without any fuss. Then, he walked toward the mountain again.

...

Outside the gate behind Abundance Mountain, Otto looked at the mountain as he heard movements coming from deep inside, but he did not panic at all.

He was waiting for the noise to end so that he could pull Reese back.
