A while later.
Walking in the middle of the group, Qin Yi frowned slightly as she surveyed the surrounding plants.
Unable to resist, she released a wisp of her ability.
Beside her, Qin Shi noticed her sister's strange expression. She tilted her head and asked, "What's wrong?"
Qin Yi frowned slightly. "The plants here feel a bit strange."
Zhang Wen, walking behind her, asked, "What's strange about them?"
Qin Yi released her ability and focused for a moment before answering. "I can't sense their auras."
"Are you saying these plants are all dead? That's impossible." Zhang Wen glanced at the towering trees and lush water-reeds. "Even through all this white mist, you can still see hints of vibrant green. There's no way they're dead."
Hearing this, Qi Xiang, who was at the front, suddenly found the forest eerie.
She instinctively took a step forward, pressing close behind Gu Xi.
In doing so, she accidentally stepped on the Mutated Rat King's tail.
