Dense fog enveloped the entire Mist Smoke Mountain.
Even the moonlight from above was obscured.
All of a sudden, a chorus of ghostly wails and wolf howls erupted.
A black cloud burst through the dense white fog, bringing with it a strong wind that instantaneously scattered the mist.
"As long as I reach Poison Dragon Pool, I will have a chance to shake off Sun Wuhuan," Chen Mu spared no mana, desperately flying forward.
There were cracks under Poison Dragon Pool that led to the underground water veins.
Once he burrowed underground, relying on his knowledge of the Yin River beneath, he could widen the gap and escape to safety.
As he thought this, Chen Mu suddenly felt a chill down his spine, an immense fear surging into his heart.
Chen Mu immediately turned around.
A snow-white light streaked through the air, arriving in the blink of an eye not far behind him.Chen Mu’s face paled drastically.
Three Yin Slaying Demon!
Hum!
A hundred and eight ghastly green Blade Lights formed a rolling Blade Net that swooped down on the white light.
Boom!
But upon contact,
The white light instantly pierced through the Blade Net.
The ghastly green translucent Qi Blades instantly shattered.
Within the white light, a Flying Blade as long as a palm and as wide as two fingers, shaped like a willow leaf, brought a gust of wind and, in just the blink of an eye, boldly rushed in front of Chen Mu.
Flying Sword?! The Flying Sword that can decapitate someone from a thousand miles away?!
Chen Mu’s pupils constricted sharply, and he instantly raised his palm.
Sand Shooting Shadow!
Seven head-sized black and red spheres flew out in a row.
Bang Bang Bang...
The Sand Containing Technique, which could easily break through a Body Protection Aura, popped like a balloon upon contact with the Flying Blade.
The Spiritual Armor’s black smoke was first to shield him, and the Body Protection Aura suddenly rose up.
But in the next instant, the black smoke of the Spiritual Armor was pierced through, and the Body Protection Aura also collapsed.
Chen Mu’s heart felt as if it was being seized by someone.
Seven Souls Return to Origin!
Five Ghosts Possession!
Qi Forbidden Hundred Miles!
An invisible Exotic Force, like a large hand, desperately grabbed at the Flying Blade.
But the Flying Blade was like a large fish caught in hand,
Slippery and vigorous, completely unaffected by Chen Mu’s force, unable to stop its forward progression.
It looked like it was about to stab into his chest.
Bang!
A hollow White Bone Sphere suddenly appeared.
Sunshine!
The unstoppable Flying Blade explosively smashed into the Bone Sphere.
Though it was delicate and short, the force of the impact was like a hammer hitting an anvil, causing rippling waves on the Bone Sphere and making Chen Mu’s heart tremble with fear. ṜÀℕòʙƐṩ
"At last... I managed to block it!"
Chen Mu didn’t dare to delay any further. Drawing on that force of impact, his speed increased threefold, like a golf ball being struck, dashing straight for Poison Dragon Pool!
However, the Flying Sword wobbled as it flew backward.
It immediately darted into the Red Gourd in Sun Wuhuan’s hand, much like a swallow returning to its nest.
Watching Chen Mu’s retreating figure, Sun Wuhuan’s eyes lit up.
This Magic Artifact could actually block my Flying Sword?
"Isn’t that the Bone Shield I lost? How did it end up with you?"
"Junior brother, you should return the property to its rightful owner," Sun Wuhuan said with a smile.
The Longitudinal Rainbow Light on his body grew even more intense. With one leap, he had a clear view of Chen Mu’s retreating figure.
Your journey continues with My Virtual Library Empire
He immediately lifted the Red Gourd in his hand.
"Rise!"
The snow-white willow-leaf Flying Blade once again shot out from the mouth of the gourd, heading straight for Chen Mu’s heart from behind!
Bang!
The bleak White Bone Sphere barely managed to block the Flying Blade.
Yet Chen Mu, like a falling star, was forcefully smashed into Poison Dragon Pool below.
Seeing Chen Mu disappear beneath the surface of the water, Sun Wuhuan frowned.
Could there be another hidden passage here?
Thinking that the other guy might actually escape, he immediately didn’t dare to hesitate.
The Longitudinal Rainbow Light erupted and, following closely behind Chen Mu, dove into the water with a splash.
After the two disappeared, ripples spread out in circles on the surface of the Pool.
White fog drifted quietly over the water.
The moon above, too, hid within a mass of dark clouds and vanished from sight.
The entire Mist Smoke Mountain suddenly fell into an eerie silence, as if it had become a land of the dead.
...
Fifty miles south of Mist Smoke Mountain.
In a small valley.
A nocturnal creature was feasting on a mouse with great relish.
Suddenly, as if hearing something, it lifted its head, its large, glossy black eyes scanning the surroundings.
The next moment.
Whoosh!
A black pillar of light burst from the ground with sudden force.
The first creature caught in its path, along with the mouse in its claws, was instantly drained dry.
Like a balloon deflated, only a limp and withered skin remained, which the black light disintegrated with a touch.
The black pillar shot up hundreds of meters into the air, then rapidly spread out at both ends, forming a wall of black light.
At the same time, there were as many as seventy-two similar pillars of light scattered across Mist Smoke Mountain.
And in only ten breaths, they connected with each other, forming a pattern that resembled an eye.
Hum!
A mind-shaking hum suddenly erupted.
The entire fifty-mile radius around Mist Smoke Mountain fell silent. All living things seemed to have encountered their natural predator, standing in place, not daring to move an inch.
...
"What’s going on?"
"Could it be that some heavenly material or earthly treasure has been born?"
"It’s not the remnants of the Yanxia Sect coming back for revenge, is it?"
Such a commotion instantly alarmed the whole of Mist Smoke Mountain.
"Everyone stay put, do not act rashly!"
"Those who take advantage of the chaos will face the consequences!" A crisp androgynous voice suddenly resounded throughout Mist Smoke Mountain.
Liu Ling stood on the rooftop of Cloud Summit Palace, looking expressionlessly at the black light enveloping the area.
At that moment, clusters of black smoke were rising from the ground.
The temperature around the entire Mist Smoke Mountain suddenly dropped by three degrees.
It was as if summer had plunged into early winter in an instant.
"Evil heretics!"
...
Below Mist Smoke Mountain, within the Yin River.
Bang!
Chen Mu, like a cannonball, violently smashed into the hard rock wall, sending small and large stones flying.
The stark white Flying Blade followed closely, pounding like a mortar pestle or like a coiled snake-head poised to strike, hammering down on Chen Mu trapped in the rock.
The white Bone Sphere was hit causing ripples, and fine cracks spread across its surface.
Chen Mu felt intense pain all over his body, his face ghastly.
"Such a powerful Flying Sword!"
If it hadn’t been for the Five Ghosts Possession Technique, the mere recoil would have seriously injured him.
Boom!
The rock wall behind him suddenly shattered.
Chen Mu, who had been ready for a long time, instantly flipped over and slipped into a narrow crevice like an eel, twisting through several turns before disappearing again.
Jade white light flickered, and Sun Wuhuan’s figure emerged at the mouth of the hole, his gaze dark as he stared into the pitch-black crevice.
After being evaded by Chen Mu several times, his smiling face could no longer remain composed.
"Like a rat!"
"Wouldn’t it be better to just lie down and die?"
With a flick of the wrist, the silvery Talisman Paper held between his right fingers instantly turned into a blaze.
The fire, like a sprite, danced left and right briefly before swooshing into the middle of the rock crevice.
Sun Wuhuan was about to continue the pursuit.
However, from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure passing quickly not far behind him.
"Daring to play tricks right under my nose?" Sun Wuhuan let out a cold laugh and, disregarding the talismanic fire, immediately chased after the figure.
Just as he rounded a bend, he saw that the figure had actually stopped, standing still.
"Junior Brother, isn’t it a bit late to seek a disturbance now?" Sun Wuhuan said with a smirk on his face.
The next moment, he couldn’t help but stiffen all over.
He saw the person slowly turn around, sporting Chen Mu’s clothes but a face that was identical to his own.
The figure wore the same mocking smile, "Junior Brother, isn’t it a bit late to seek a disturbance now?"
As the figure spoke, blood uncontrollably trickled from the corner of his mouth, quickly staining his chest clothes a deep red.
The flesh on his face also began to rapidly rot and turn inside out.
Sun Wuhuan felt a chill rush to his head, and his back was immediately drenched in cold sweat.
"What on earth are you!"
