Lu Yuan held Xuanyuan Sword tightly, golden light flashing on the sword's edge.
The fog around him was still thick, but he knew that the core of the formation was right in front of him.
"The guardians of the Black Demon Sect want to trap us in the fog, but this is just a means of delaying time."
Lu Yuan said coldly, staring at the surroundings.
"As long as we can break the formation, he will no longer be able to hide."
Ye Ling'er looked around nervously and asked in a low voice: "Brother Lu Yuan, do you know how to break the formation?"
Lu Yuan was silent for a moment, Xuanyuan Sword trembled slightly, sensing the fluctuations of spiritual power around him.
"The core of the formation must be right in front."
He said, then stepped forward firmly.
Chu Yao followed closely. Although she was full of doubts and uneasiness, she believed in Lu Yuan's judgment.
Ye Ling'er didn't hesitate and quickly followed.
The pace of the three of them is getting faster and faster.
Suddenly, a sharp voice came from the fog, like countless screaming ghosts whispering in the ears.
"Jie Jie Jie... do you think you can break the formation?"
The voice was filled with a cold chill, and seemed to come from all directions, making it impossible to determine its origin.
Lu Yuan ignored it.
His eyes were still cold, he held the Xuanyuan Sword tightly with both hands, and the sword energy gradually condensed on the sword's edge.
"I will definitely be able to break your trick!"
After he finished speaking, the Xuanyuan Sword suddenly swung out, and a golden sword energy instantly broke through the fog and headed into the distance.
"Boom!"
The sword energy hit a hidden corner, instantly causing a violent vibration.
The surrounding fog seemed to be torn apart in an instant, revealing a vague figure.
"There!"
Ye Ling'er's eyes lit up and she pointed at the blurry shadow.
Lu Yuan's eyes were as bright as fire. He knew that the man in black robe was hiding in the depths of the mist, controlling everything through formations.
"Ling'er, Chu Yao, protect your left and right first, don't let other puppets get close!"
Lu Yuan gave the order and immediately flew up. The Xuanyuan Sword burst out with strong sword light in the air and headed towards the figure.
"Xuanyuan Sword, kill!"
Lu Yuan shouted loudly, and the sword energy struck out like thunder.
The man in black robe seemed to be aware of Lu Yuan's intention, and his figure instantly swayed, trying to hide in the mist again.
But Lu Yuan had already seen through his movements, and the sword energy followed him like a shadow, instantly slashing in his direction.
"Boom!"
There was a loud noise, and the sword energy directly hit the body-protecting spiritual power of the man in black robe, shaking him back several steps in a state of embarrassment.
"You...you can actually break my formation!"
The man in black robe looked at Lu Yuan in shock, with an incredible light flashing in his eyes.
"You underestimated the power of Xuanyuan Sword."
Lu Yuan said coldly, without stopping, Xuanyuan Sword burst out with blazing light in his hand again.
"Come again!"
He shouted angrily, and his sword energy struck the black-robed man again like a strong wind.
The man in black robe quickly waved his hands, and the surrounding fog rolled up again, forming a thick barrier, trying to block Lu Yuan's sword energy.
"This little fog can't stop me!"
Lu Yuan's eyes were cold and stern, and the Xuanyuan Sword's sword light became stronger and stronger. The golden sword energy drew a dazzling arc in the air and struck the barrier hard.
"Boom!"
The barrier was torn apart in an instant, and the body of the man in black robe was shaken back again and again, and his face instantly turned pale.
"You kid...you have such strength!"
He gritted his teeth, a vicious light flashing in his eyes.
"However, you can't succeed easily!"
The man in black robe roared angrily, and with a sudden wave of his hand, the surrounding fog instantly gathered and turned into countless sharp blades, heading towards Lu Yuan.
"Here we go again!"
Lu Yuan snorted coldly, and the Xuanyuan Sword spun in his hand. The sword energy formed a barrier, blocking the attacks of those foggy blades.
"However, your formation has lost its power."
Lu Yuan said calmly, the light on the Xuanyuan Sword was still dazzling.
"This sword will completely end your delusions!"
After he finished speaking, Xuanyuan Sword suddenly burst out with golden light, and the sword energy swept out like a torrent, heading straight towards the man in black robe. "Boom!"
The sword energy hit the black-robed man's chest, knocking his body away and falling heavily to the ground.
"Pfft!"
The black-robed man spurted a mouthful of blood, and his face instantly turned pale.
"You...you actually..."
He looked at Lu Yuan with horror on his face, a trace of despair flashing in his eyes.
"Is this the Black Demon Sect's trump card?"
Lu Yuan said coldly, Xuanyuan Sword trembled slightly in his hand, and the light on the sword's edge remained undiminished.
"Your conspiracy ends here."
The man in black robe looked at Lu Yuan with hatred on his face, a trace of madness flashed in his eyes.
"Do you think this will end?"
He whispered, with a strange smile in his voice.
"The Black Demon Sect's plan is far more complicated than you think... You will never understand."
After saying that, he suddenly took out a black talisman and crushed it hard.
"What!"
Lu Yuan's pupils shrank, and he instantly felt a powerful wave of energy burst out from the spell.
"Everyone, get out of here!"
He shouted loudly and quickly swung the Xuanyuan Sword. The sword energy formed a barrier in the air, blocking him, Ye Ling'er, and Chu Yao.
"Boom!"
A huge explosion sounded, the spell exploded instantly, and black energy swept through the entire valley like a violent wind.
Although Lu Yuan's sword energy barrier blocked most of the impact, he was still shocked and took a few steps back, and the spiritual power in his body was briefly disrupted.
"This guy...actually chose to blow himself up."
Ye Ling'er's face was filled with shock, and she felt a sense of fear in her heart.
Chu Yao also held the weapon in her hand tightly with a solemn expression.
"The power of this spell is so powerful."
Lu Yuan took a deep breath and suppressed the surge of spiritual energy in his body.
"It seems that the Black Demon Sect has laid many traps and conspiracies in this fog."
He said calmly, his eyes still firm.
"However, we have already passed this level."
Ye Ling'er nodded, then looked at Lu Yuan: "Then what's next? Do we want to continue to track the other people from the Black Demon Sect?"
Lu Yuan thought for a moment and tightened his grip on the Xuanyuan Sword.
"The conspiracy of the Black Demon Sect has not yet fully surfaced, but Qing Xuzi must know more inside stories."
He said with a firm look in his eyes.
"We must find him in order to completely uncover the Black Demon Gate's plan."
"But the fog has not completely dissipated yet, we have to be careful."
Chu Yao reminded that although they had defeated the man in black robe, there was still an uneasy atmosphere surrounding them.
"That's right."
Lu Yuan nodded, then stepped forward.
"We cannot take it lightly."
The three of them continued to move forward, and as they went deeper, the fog gradually became thinner.
The road ahead is becoming clearer and clearer, as if this strange obstacle has finally been broken through.
"I feel it!"
Ye Ling'er suddenly stopped, with a hint of surprise in his expression.
"I can feel the fluctuations of spiritual power! It's the breath of Qing Xuzi!"
Lu Yuan's eyes lit up instantly, and he held the Xuanyuan Sword tightly, with hope shining in his eyes.
"Let's go, Qing Xuzi is right in front!"
He said, and then quickly rushed towards the direction of the spiritual power fluctuation with Ye Ling'er and Chu Yao.
They are finally going to find Qingxuzi and are about to reveal the true plan of the Black Demon Sect.
A crisis in the fog seems to be coming
It was over, but Lu Yuan still felt a little uneasy in his heart.
Is the Black Demon Sect's conspiracy really over? (End of chapter)
