Tian Bufan had no intention of saying anything further, and simply stated, "Let's go."

Seeing this, Lin Yi didn't ask any more questions but instead inquired, "What about the adhesive?"

"You don't need to worry about the adhesive," Tian Bufan said.

Kuai Hongji sneered, "Deep within the contamination, there is a lack of many things, but there is never a shortage of high-purity extraordinary material."

He also took the opportunity to disdain the zealots, "Those zealots don't go over there and harvest because they're incompetent."

As Tian Bufan spoke, he lifted his foot and walked into the Corpse Bone Forest.

Kuai Hongji followed closely, like a guard.

After walking for a while, Lin Yi's perception seemed to capture signs of biological activity!

"Young Master Tian, I think I sensed something?" Lin Yi said, "Probably not far away to the front left..."

"Front left?" Tian Bufan squinted, with a barely perceptible smile at the corner of his mouth, "Although it's not on the main path, the point of transit is close to it. Keep sensing; if it's not something important, don't bother."

"No need to avoid them?" Lin Yi asked.

"No need," Tian Bufan replied, "If it were two days ago, I would be eager to avoid them."

"Today..." Kuai Hongji laughed sinisterly, "If they provoke us, we'll grab them and refine them instantly! Heh, heh, heh!"

Lin Yi almost face-palmed, "Not really... why do I feel like we're not the orthodox faction characters?"

Not to mention, their "heh, heh, heh" was a sort of dark humor, but when it came to Kuai Hongji, it didn't seem performed at all.

"That's not important," Tian Bufan glanced at Kuai Hongji with a bit of helplessness, "Kuai Kuai, don't be troublesome."

"Got it, got it," Kuai Hongji sneered.

Looking at Kuai Hongji in this state, Lin Yi felt as if he was under a delusion.

For some reason, he felt that since arriving at the Corpse Bone Forest, Kuai Hongji seemed to have become much more sinister.

Not evil, but sinister.

A type of sinister emanating from deep within.

A very pure "sinister," without "evil."

Kuai Hongji slowly spoke, "I think I know what that is now."

Lin Yi was slightly startled, but his perception quickly spread over there, seeing the appearance of those creatures.

However, he was disappointed.

Or rather, he felt disappointed upon seeing those creatures.

"Just zealot art teachers..." he sighed slightly, "Instantly lost interest."

The bizarre art lady teacher seemed to have suffered quite a bit of injury, picking out body parts she wanted in front of an eerie ancient tree.

She was anxious, her face covered in large sweat beads, which under the interplay of light and shadow, looked like her face was covered in tiny eyeballs.

It looked as if half of her body was burned away, her clothing tattered, but the exposed areas were not normal muscle texture but rather clay-like contrasting sections, with blood vessel and bone lines drawn on them.

The whole person looked as if she was molded with extraordinary material on a skeleton.

In addition to her, some zealots were also repairing their bodies.

Lin Yi didn't pay much attention to them; these people posed no threat to him now, nor did they go out of their way to block his path, so he didn't plan on fussing with them.

Yet as they moved, those zealots sensed their presence, each looking at them through the gap in the branches in the darkness.

"Don't bother them! Keep repairing your bodies!" the bizarre art lady teacher said through gritted teeth.

However, her command was ineffective at this time, and quite a few zealots didn't listen and went stealthily in shadow.

"Tomato... Teacher, I want to eat tomato so badly..."

The eyes of the zealots were filled with desire for food, soon charging to the side of Tian Bufan and Kuai Hongji.

Tian Bufan sighed, "A waste of time."

"Leave it to me, you guys go ahead," Kuai Hongji said coldly, standing in place, temporarily leaving the group.

Tian Bufan kept moving forward, not stopping.

Their destination was at the edge of the Layer Rift, far away, requiring conservation of energy.

Not long after, Kuai Hongji caught up, carrying a green bundle in his hand.

Tian Bufan glanced at the bundle and sneered, "All sorted out?"

"A trivial matter," Kuai Hongji stated sinisterly.

Lin Yi was shocked; only three zealots came, but Kuai Hongji dealt with them all?

"Those people had encountered Old Lin many times, especially that teacher... I always felt something was amiss," Kuai Hongji said, "But I was too lazy to think too much about it, so I cleared them out."

"Furthermore, you would never guess what else I found."

Kuai Hongji didn't play coy and directly took out a crystal, fiddled with it for a while, and tossed it to Tian Bufan.

"Ash crystal?" Tian Bufan's expression shifted, "Huh, wait, it's more than just a crystal..."

"Indeed, it seems to contain a trace of breath from the 'Primordial Ash Apostle,'" Kuai Hongji nodded slightly.

Tian Bufan squinted, "Now I understand, the ashes in the areas from the fifth floor and above in the Teaching Building were caused by the 'Primordial Ash Apostle' when penetrating the layers. The bizarre art lady teacher and her companions extract the crystal; when its concentration is sufficient, the breath of the 'Primordial Ash Apostle' can be sensed."

"Those people aren't just art students, but also zealots from the Desolate Land base here, all injured, penetrating from the physical layer to the spiritual layer."
