Lightning danced across the gray sky, like wild serpents of thunder illuminating the dark abyss.
Shawn's figure appeared near the Deep Pit Mine, where he found a corpse already blown to bits in a gorge that stretched tens of thousands of meters. This was a demon from the Bottomless Abyss, likely a Frenzy Demon, for the surrounding area exuded a nauseating stench. Upon entering the Bizarre Realm, its body was immediately assimilated by laws, failing the first wave of willpower judgment, and bloated under the gray mist's erosion like Lorice had before, ultimately bursting into scattered pieces of flesh.
"Where did this sludge come from? Is it the gray mist's erosion?"
Shawn squatted down, and the Invisible Hand dug a demon heart from the bloated mire of flesh. The dead demon hadn't succumbed to the erosion of hateful sludge but instead had blood and flesh pouring outward like sludge, striking one of Shawn's knowledge blind spots.
He hadn't yet begun research on the gray mist.
