A Reckless Test

Lin Mu directly used blink to put some distance between him and the dark grey mist.

"So this is the baleful energy they were talking about…" Lin Mu muttered.

He could sense the aura emanating from the dark grey mist, finding it to be highly unsettling. Lin Mu could tell that even he would be affected by this if it came in contact with his body.

'Though to what extent… I should know that…' Lin Mu had a reckless thought.

He opened his right palm and waved it in a curling manner.

~WHOOSH~

A breeze rose from his hand and pulled a few wisps of the dark grey mist towards him. The amount was quite small, about the same as an incense stick. 

"No better way then to test it directly…" Lin Mu directly touched the dark grey mist with his hand.

~hiss~

And when he did a hissing sound could be heard.

The sleeve directly corroded on contact before the mist touched his skin.
