I have a city in another world

Chapter 7094 The Terrifying Nature of Forgetting

Tang Zhen was unaware that in this ruined hunting ground shrouded in blood and despair, a cultivator was searching like a lone wolf, regarding him as the only lifeline that could pry open a glimmer of hope in this death contest dominated by the demon god.

Perhaps it was some kind of innate intuition that made them certain that in this desperate situation sealed off by the will of the demon god, there was a being capable of breaking the rules.

And that being was Tang Zhen.

If Tang Zhen knew about this, he probably wouldn't be humble at all; he would just smile slightly and give a faint compliment, saying that the other party indeed had good taste.

This ruin, controlled by otherworldly demons, is permeated with the aura of death and filled with demonic energy that corrodes living beings.

Invisible, crimson threads of law tightly bound all extraordinary beings who stepped into this place. Whether they were cultivators who could fly and escape into the earth, technologically modified humans equipped with energy cores, or genetically engineered warriors with unparalleled physical strength, none could escape the fate of being hunted and harvested.

Tang Zhen had more than one way to escape from such a deadly situation, and each one was enough to allow him to leave unscathed right under the nose of the demon god.

However, he has not left yet, but wanders around the city that has long since become ruins.

Amidst the ruins, charred steel bars, like withered bones, point straight to the gray sky, the air thick with the smells of gunpowder, blood, and the burnt odor of an energy explosion.

With each step, one could hear the faint sound of shattering rocks, and occasionally the roars of cultivators fighting, the booming of colliding energies, and the desperate cries of life slipping away.

This once bustling city has become a desolate wasteland in a very short time.

Only slaughter and death are the eternal themes here.

In fact, Tang Zhen was in the city, right under the noses of those cultivators, yet no one could see him. On several occasions, he even leaned against the collapsed city wall to watch the fighting.

None of the cultivators who were fighting with all their might noticed that there was another person beside them, and none of them could detect even the slightest trace of his aura, as if he had never existed.

Like a drop of water merging into the ocean, or a speck of dust falling into the desert, Tang Zhen became perfectly integrated with this ruin and this battle, becoming an invisible bystander.

During this period, he encountered Feng Jiu Kui twice.

The first time was at an abandoned energy core station, where Feng Jiu Kui was surrounded by three gene cultivators.

The second time was next to the ruins of the clock tower in the city center, where Feng Jiu Kui was squatting on the ground, panting and bandaging himself.

Tang Zhen's concealment technique was very special; in the eyes of Feng Jiu Kui and all the cultivators, he was essentially in a state of complete concealment.

There was no breath, no light or shadow, no trace of its existence.

Even though the distance between the two was less than three zhang, Feng Jiu Kui only frowned subconsciously, feeling a strange emptiness in his heart.

But he never imagined that the goal he had been searching for and regarded as his only hope was right in front of him.

If Feng Jiu Kui knew that the person he had been searching for, who had traversed ruins and exhausted his energy, had appeared before him at such close range twice, I wonder what he would think.

Not only could the cultivators of varying levels of cultivation not find Tang Zhen, but even the consciousness of the otherworldly demon god who controlled the entire hunting ground and looked down on everything could not find or lock onto his whereabouts.

It wasn't that Tang Zhen's realm was higher than that of the Demon God, but rather that it stemmed from a special technique he created himself, called the "Art of Concealment".

This technique is neither an offensive nor a defensive technique, but a secret art specifically designed to conceal oneself and evade detection by the rules.

Its core is to integrate one's own aura, soul, and even traces of existence into the surrounding laws of heaven and earth, like a chameleon blending into its environment, or a shadow clinging to an object, without conflicting with any rules or leaving any flaws for investigation.

This "Disappearance Technique" will continuously evolve and improve as Tang Zhen's cultivation level increases. With each breakthrough in a major realm, the concealment effect of the technique will undergo a qualitative leap. Now that Tang Zhen has become a ninth-level cultivator, he is only one step away from the demigod realm that countless cultivators dream of. The spiritual power within his body will slowly transform into his original essence, and the effect of the "Disappearance Technique" will become increasingly powerful.

It has now reached the state of "hiding in the world, leaving no trace".

Even when faced with the overwhelming power of the rules, he can remain calm and hidden, undetected by any being.

Unless the other party's cultivation level far surpasses his, or they possess an ancient artifact specifically designed to break concealment techniques, there is absolutely no way he could discover his whereabouts.

This led to a strange situation: in many places outside, people gradually began to forget Tang Zhen's existence.

Not long ago, he stayed in the wizarding world for a long time. Many low-level wizards there had gradually forgotten this powerful figure who once stirred up a storm in the wizarding world and single-handedly created a huge wave.

It is important to know that wizards are born with exceptional memories; they can remember everything they see and never forget it.

They almost never forget what they remember, yet even so, they still cannot resist the power of the rules attached to the "Art of Vanishing".

It was a strange power that "erased the traces of existence." It didn't delete memories, but rather made Tang Zhen's figure, aura, and deeds gradually fade from other people's perceptions, like an ancient book sealed by the dust of time, forgotten and forgotten by everyone.

Before long, even the most powerful high-level cultivators in the wizarding world will gradually forget about Tang Zhen's existence.

Occasionally, due to certain special reasons, perhaps seeing the martial arts techniques that Tang Zhen once used, perhaps touching items related to him, or perhaps some unexpected opportunity, when they briefly recall this name, they will involuntarily feel a strange shock and fear.

It was as if I recalled some kind of intimidation from the depths of my soul, yet I couldn't quite place where that intimidation came from.

What kind of existence is hidden behind that name?

Only those beings of the same level as Tang Zhen or of a higher realm can barely resist this power of the rules. Remember, there is such a person as Tang Zhen.

However, over time, it will also be affected, and it will take an equal amount of effort to correct it.

For the enemy, this is a very painful and disgusting thing.

The otherworldly demon god who controls this hunting ground is undoubtedly powerful and holds the power of life and death. His divine sense, which comes from another realm, covers the entire city like a net, monitoring the every move of every cultivator and reaping their essence and soul.

However, He was descending from another realm, and His divine consciousness was severely restricted and weakened by the spatial barriers and the laws of heaven and earth. It was like looking at the world through a thick layer of frosted glass. Although He could control the overall situation, He could not perceive every minute detail.

Faced with the power of rules contained in Tang Zhen's "Art of Concealment," it was naturally powerless to detect Tang Zhen's existence, which was normal.

Although Tang Zhen's figure could not be seen and his whereabouts could not be located, the Demon God's divine sense was so keen that he could still vaguely sense an anomaly.

In the hunting grounds He set out, some scattered treasures are mysteriously disappearing.

These treasures include storage rings and cultivation manuals carried by cultivators, as well as various materials left over from city ruins and energy crystals condensed from damaged spiritual veins. Most of them are bait that He deliberately placed to lure cultivators into fighting.

At first, the demon god didn't care; minor losses were insignificant to Him.

His divine sense cannot cover everything; there will always be some that slip through the net, and some treasures that cultivators will hide or lose.

But when this phenomenon of loss continued to occur, and even became more and more frequent, with more and more treasures disappearing without a trace, and even the few divine crystals containing primordial power that He had placed there mysteriously vanishing, the Demon God realized that this was by no means a coincidence.

This indicates that an unexpected situation has occurred in the hunting grounds that is beyond His control.
