Chapter 168 - Ominous

Meanwhile, the people outside the secret realm all looked serious.

Even through the water mirror, they could sense the evil aura there. That force was stronger than they had imagined. Only by seeing it with their own eyes could they understand the seriousness of the matter.

“Why is there such an evil force in the secret realm? No wonder it can seal the secret realm.”

“We were too careless for not noticing it earlier.”

Everyone’s faces were full of regret. If they had noticed it earlier, they might have been able to avoid all of this.

It could be said that since the establishment of the seven great sects, they had experienced many storms and waves, but none of them had ever been as passive as they were now.

There were too many core disciples of the sects trapped. If they really couldn’t escape, it would be a great loss for any sect. It would be a great blow to their vitality.

“I was quite optimistic about Ye Xuan before, but judging from the current situation, I’m afraid he’s in trouble. It’s a pity for a man of such high growth potential to die in the secret realm.”

“I don’t think the black fog will let him off so easily.”

They still didn’t understand why the black mist let the others leave and only focused on Ye Xuan.

If they knew that Ye Xuan had repeatedly destroyed the black mist’s plans, they would probably understand. After all, a thousand-year plan had been destroyed by him.

Because Shen Changling had left, no one knew what was going on in the underground palace.

Mo Jianming was worried about Ye Xuan’s safety, so he urged, “What’s the use of saying all this now? You should have taken action earlier. Hurry up and think of a way to break open the secret realm.”

In the past, there were many sects that had grudges against each other, but at this time, they all put aside their grudges and attacked together. Powerful spiritual power was poured into the array, then gathered into indestructible energy.

There was finally some movement at the door of the secret realm that had been closed all this time.

In the secret realm, the black mist and Ye Xuan were still confronting each other.

“You’re quite bold to face me alone. It’s been a thousand years since I’ve seen someone like you. Although you’ve ruined my plan, I can consider giving you a quick death.”

The black mist seemed to have thought of something and burst out with a strange laugh. “Or how about coming over to our side?”

As the black mist’s voice fell, a figure separated from the black mist and appeared in front of Ye Xuan. It was Bai Haoyu from the Misty Illusory Manor.

No wonder Ye Xuan didn’t see him earlier. He had already fused with the black mist.

All of the black mist immediately surged into Bai Haoyu’s body. He opened his eyes, and a towering evil aura burst out. The black color in his eyes was even thicker than before.

“This body can barely make it.” The words that came out of Bai Haoyu’s mouth were bone-chilling.

The moment his words fell, waves of black light emerged from his palm and surged toward Ye Xuan.

Boom!

Ye Xuan dodged it by a hair’s breadth. The black Qi transformed into a sharp blade and turned in the air, then turned back and caught him off guard.

Ye Xuan felt a chill by his ears and saw a few strands of hair floating in the air. He frowned as an unprecedented sense of danger enveloped his heart, almost suffocating him.

It could be said that this was a matter of life and death. He had never thought that the enemy in front of him would be so powerful, like an unscalable mountain.

That kind of strength already surpassed the sky rank.

At first, “Bai Haoyu” was not used to the new body. He was like a monster in human skin, and his limbs were a little stiff. However, as time went by, he became more familiar with it, and his attacks became faster and faster.

He was very successful in using the black mist, even successfully summoning his natal sword. However, the white sword was now stained with an ominous aura.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The glints and shadows of the blade were mixed with an omnipresent black, like a poisonous snake lurking in the dark. Ye Xuan didn’t notice it for a moment, and a few more wounds appeared on his body. The blood that flowed out was black.

Ye Xuan panted heavily, and his eyes glowed red like two rising suns. He felt as if he had supreme divine power, and the black Qi around him was instantly eliminated.

When his pupils turned completely red, countless flames rose from his palm in an instant. They fell like meteors and covered the black mist.

With a wave of Ye Xuan’s hand, the fire dragon formed by spiritual energy made the remaining black Qi dissipate completely.

Bai Haoyu’s eyes flashed with surprise. “I didn’t expect you to be so capable despite your low cultivation base.” Then, he laughed coldly. “But you’re underestimating me.”

The remaining black mist in the air quickly reappeared. Its body expanded rapidly like a balloon, turning into an ancient giant beast that covered the sky. It opened its bloody mouth and swallowed the fire dragon.

Following a wail, only scattered sparks floated in the air.
