Chapter 1113: White Fog

The three huge Greater Evil Spirits stood in front of the Devil Heart Pillar menacingly as the "evil" character on their heads wriggled and took the shape of sneers as they stared at Li Luo and the others.

Even Feng Lingyuan's eyes grew dark when faced with three Greater Evil Spirits, because it meant that they would be facing three Greater Heavenly Disaster-class Others, all at the Greater Heavenly Resonance Tier.

With Feng Lingyuan's strength, three Greater Evil Spirits would not be able to stop her if she truly wanted to leave, but the current situation was way too unexpected.

Based on Feng Lingyuan's past experiences, a B-class mission could not be considered difficult by any stretch of imagination. The appearance of a single Greater Evil Spirit was already surprising, but there were three! Feng Lingyuan would've rated this mission as A-class with those three alone. However, the cruel reality was right before their eyes, so there was no way that they could suspend their belief.

"The situation is not right. There is too much deviation from the college's intelligence report," Feng Lingyuan said coldly.

Deng Changbai also frowned deeply. It was naturally impossible for the academy to intentionally trap them with fake information, and if it wasn't the academy that had planned this situation, then it could only be... the work of the All-Beings Devil King.

The All-Beings Devil King was definitely aware of the college's intention to send students into the Fifth Minor Earthly Branch Realm to destroy the Devil Heart Pillars, so it wouldn't just sit back and watch them successfully complete the sabotage plan. It would obviously devise countermeasures.

Then the appearance of the three Greater Evil Spirits was most likely one of the countermeasures that the All-Beings Devil King had put in place.

It had turned what most students thought was a practice field to cultivate and train in into a murder arena where only the strongest would survive. It was hard to imagine how many casualties and how much chaos this would wreak amongst lesser teams if they were to encounter the same situation in other areas. Thinking about this scenario, the faces of everyone present all turned sour.

However, the three Greater Evil Spirits did not give them more time to ponder. An opening slowly emerged on each of their twisted and cracked faces right then.

Whoosh! nove(l)bi(n.)com

In the next instant, an extremely dense, white fog erupted from the openings accompanied by countless mournful screams. In just a few breaths, the entire town was completely veiled.

Li Luo and the others immediately activated their resonant power to resist the sinister cold aura that the white fog emitted.

Li Luo examined the white fog closely, vaguely making out what seemed to be countless dust-like particles floating within. A drop of cold sweat emerged from his brow when he realized that the white fog was made of minute fragments of Other skin.

The white fog was extremely insidious and seemed to dull everyone's five senses, causing the group's vision and awareness to be greatly reduced.

"You guys stay where you are and protect each other as a group!"

Two Dragon Fang Swords were flying erratically in the sword formation, constantly gulping sword light.

With the appearance of the sword formation, a terrifying amount of sword qi piercing through much of the white fog filling the area, slightly increasing the visibility.

The sword formation did not launch any attacks; it merely hovered above the heads of the group.

Zong Sha and Jiang Wanyu immediately relaxed a little. The level of Li Luo's sword formation Duke Art was rather high, hence it naturally exuded an indescribably dangerous aura while it was activated.

However, Li Luo did not intend to use the Dragon Fang Swords of the sword formation to dispatch the Greater Evil Spirit, as that was obviously not very realistic. Instead, he had activated the formation as a deterrent. This was undoubtedly a bluff that would not be very effective in actually dealing with the Greater Evil Spirit.

The arcane sword formation rotated slowly, flowing with thick sword qi.

Lu Ming stood behind Li Luo, stretching out her palm that was engraved with the Ancient Spirit Leaf. The resonant power within her body began to rapidly flow out and, through the enhancement and transformation of the Ancient Spirit Leaf, surged into Li Luo's body, replenishing his quickly depleting resonant power.

Time passed quietly.

About ten seconds later, Zong Sha, Jiang Wanyu, and the others' pupils suddenly shrunk as they saw a hideous face inscribed with the "evil" character slowly emerge from the dense fog in front of them.

It seemed to be staring at the sword formation, and its sharp bloody talons stretched out towards it, intending to test the strength of the formation.

Upon seeing this, the group immediately tensed up and clenched their teeth.

Fortunately, the Greater Evil Spirit retracted its claws a few moments later and quietly retreated back into the midst of the thick fog.

It was only when it was fully out of sight that the entire group could finally heave sighs of relief.

Still, Li Luo still did not retract the sword formation, choosing to maintain it lest the Greater Evil Spirit changed its mind and returned to kill them all.

But it wasn't long before some miserable screams rang out from the other direction.

They were from Deng Changbai's group!
