Chapter 163: There’s Nothing He Can’t Do

Ye Xuan spent some of his prodigal points to get the purified version of the black fog.

Still maintaining its original form, the black fog was currently completely harmless. Its evil power had been absorbed by the system.

“Why isn’t he back yet? Did he run away?”

“It’s very possible. We’re just courting death by being here. With his cultivation, he wouldn’t even have time to escape in the face of danger. Why would he dig his own grave?”

Seeing that Ye Xuan hadn’t returned after a long time, the crowd couldn’t help but stir, and there were grumbles.

Only the people of the Tai Qing Sect firmly believed in Ye Xuan. “Elder Ye is not that kind of person. Don’t talk nonsense.”

The others were about to argue when they heard a cry of surprise. “Look!”

Ye Xuan, who was covered in black Qi, walked toward everyone. Everyone retreated in fear. The first thought that came to their minds was that Ye Xuan had been exposed to and had been swallowed by the black fog.

Even Shen Changling subconsciously clenched his sword, his gaze serious.

Seeing that everyone was about to attack, Ye Xuan quickly stopped them. “It’s me. ”

The black Qi immediately dissipated and condensed into a small black ball in the center of his palm. Ye Xuan returned to his original appearance.

Everyone was confused, but they still didn’t let down their guard. They thought that the black fog had evolved and was trying to confuse them.

“What’s going on? Have you been infected by the black fog?”

Ye Xuan took out the excuse he had prepared. “This is the black Qi I just forged.”

Seeing that Ye Xuan’s expression was clear and his pupils were pitch black, unlike those who had been swallowed by the black fog, everyone believed Ye Xuan’s words.

The others hurried over and looked at the little black ball in the center of Ye Xuan’s palm. They couldn’t help but sigh. “Elder Ye, how did you do it? You’re too amazing. You’ve reached the point where you can pass off a fake as the real thing.”

It wasn’t just them. Even the people outside the secret realm were dumbfounded, not understanding how Ye Xuan did it.

“Although it’s easy to fake the black fog, it’s absolutely impossible to deceive everyone.”

Soon, they knew what Ye Xuan wanted to do. He wanted to sneak into the enemy’s base and blend in.

Those from the Dao Seeking Sect couldn’t help but sneer, “Such thoughts are too naive. If the black fog could be so easily fooled, would we still be unable to open the secret realm?”

The other sects had the same idea and were not optimistic about Ye Xuan’s plan.

“Isn’t it because you’re just too incompetent that you’re still unable to open the secret realm?” Mo Jianming interjected from the side.

The group of grand elders was dumbfounded.

“Are you suggesting that earth rank kid is able to do it? Just wait and see, their idea will definitely not work.”

Ye Xuan and the others still didn’t know that the outside world could detect their movements at that moment.

Looking at the thing in Ye Xuan’s hand, the average person would find it almost exactly the same as the black fog outside. The only difference was that they would not feel evil aura from it.

If they knew that the black fog was not fake, just purified by the system, their jaws would probably drop.

“We can use this to go to the underground palace. The black fog will not attack us. Then, we can find an opportunity to find the array.”

That was the plan that Ye Xuan had thought of. It sounded good, but some people showed hesitation.

“But what if we get exposed? After all, this is fake.”

“Absolutely impossible,” Ye Xuan said firmly.

The black fog came from the same body, so how could it be seen through? However, the others didn’t know that and were a little worried.

Seeing that everyone was hesitating, Ye Xuan didn’t say anything. He immediately dispersed his defense and walked out. In an instant, he was wrapped in black fog.

For a moment, no one could tell if the black fog was fake or real.

Under everyone’s gaze, Ye Xuan safely walked around. When he returned, everyone looked at him in amazement.

“That’s too amazing. It’s simply to the point of passing off the fake as the real thing.”

Ye Xuan didn’t say much. “Let’s not waste any time. Let’s get going.”

The others did not hesitate any longer. One by one, they drew out a portion of the black fog and wrapped it around their bodies. In an instant, there were dozens of people wrapped in the black fog on the spot. Those who did not know the truth would think that they had been completely devoured.

The people outside the secret realm fell silent.

On the other hand, Mo Jianming revealed a gratified smile. “Who said that they couldn’t succeed?”

He knew Ye Xuan would have a way.

The few grand elders who had spoken with conviction earlier immediately lowered their heads and did not dare to say anything more. However, a few of them were still stubborn.

“So what if they managed to bluff their way through? How can it be so easy for them to enter the enemy’s lair?”

Mo Jianming only glanced at them. “Then we shall wait and see.”

Ye Xuan and the others set off toward the underground palace. The further they went, the thicker the aura of the black fog became.

Everyone could feel the cold aura coming at them, and they shivered subconsciously, their hearts in their throats.

The calmest person there was probably Ye Xuan. Even Shen Changling, afraid of being seen through, had his forehead covered in sweat.

The others were rather emotional. Although Ye Xuan’s cultivation wasn’t high, his magnanimity and courage were really beyond ordinary people.

Soon, a deep pit not far away appeared in everyone’s sight. The thick black fog was almost solid, and the howling wind mixed with ghostly wails and wolf howls made people shiver.

Occasionally, a gust of black fog would sweep past them, and a cold aura would follow them like a shadow. It was as if they were walking on a tightrope on a cliff, and they felt like they would be discovered in the next second.
