Chapter 1105: White Fog
Three massive "Great Evil Fiends" stood like humans before the "Evil Heart Pillar," the "evil" characters on their faces seeming to writhe and form a mocking expression as they stared at Li Luo and the others.
Facing the appearance of three "Great Evil Fiends," even Feng Lingyuan's eyes grew solemn at this moment, because it meant they would be facing three Da Tian Xiang Jing great-catastrophe-class aberrations.
Of course, with Feng Lingyuan's strength, even if there were three "Great Evil Fiends" before her, if she wanted to leave, they couldn't stop her, but the current situation was simply too unexpected.
According to Feng Lingyuan's past experience, a Class-B mission shouldn't be that difficult at all; the appearance of a single "Great Evil Fiend" was already surprising, yet now three had appeared directly. If you said this was a Class-A mission, Feng Lingyuan would believe it.
But the cruel reality was laid out before their eyes, leaving no room for doubt.
"Something's wrong. The academy's intelligence is way off." Feng Lingyuan said in a cold voice.
Deng Changbai also frowned tightly. The academy naturally wouldn't deliberately set them up, and if there wasn't a problem on the academy's side, then it could only be... the methods of the "Demon King of All Beings."
The academy's attempt to send students into "Little Chen Heaven" to destroy the "Evil Heart Pillar" was certainly not going to be hidden from that "Demon King of All Beings," so it wouldn't sit by and watch the academy smoothly complete the destruction plan, and it would certainly offer countermeasures.
So the appearance of these three "Great Evil Fiends" was most likely one of the methods of that "Demon King of All Beings."
It had directly transformed what the students thought was an initial practice ground into a high-level field brimming with killing intent. It was hard to imagine—if at this moment, in other areas, some teams with slightly ordinary strength encountered the current situation, how much fear and casualties would it bring them?
At this thought, the expressions of everyone present grew somewhat ugly.
But the three "Great Evil Fiends" didn't give them more time to think. The twisted, ferocious "evil" characters on their faces suddenly cracked open a slit at this moment.
Whooo!
The next instant, accompanied by countless shrill shrieks, dense white smoke could be seen spewing out, and in just a few breaths, it covered the entire town.
Li Luo and the others all urged their own phase force, resisting the white fog that emanated a chilling aura.
Li Luo stared at the white fog, faintly seeing what seemed to be countless tiny dust-like substances floating within it. After a moment's thought, his heart chilled—it was clear that this white fog was formed from tiny, fragmented, bizarre flakes of skin.
Moreover, this white fog was extremely strange, as if it could block the five senses of perception, greatly limiting everyone's vision.
"Stay where you are, group up and be careful!"
At this moment, Feng Lingyuan's icy voice came through. The next instant, tremendous, astonishing phase force erupted like a volcano, and faintly, Li Luo and the others seemed to see a Great Evil Fiend being drowned by countless gray-black shadows.
At the same time, from Deng Changbai's position, intense combat fluctuations also emanated, clearly indicating he had also engaged a Great Evil Fiend.
Li Luo gripped his Dragon-Elephant Blade tightly with five fingers and suddenly said in a low voice: "Senior Feng and Deng Changbai are each holding back a Great Evil Fiend, so where's the third one?"
Senior Zong Sha, Jiang Jiang Wanyu, and the others all changed color slightly. These Great Evil Fiends were bizarre and cunning, and now that the white fog had blocked everyone's perception, it would definitely take advantage of Feng Lingyuan and Deng Changbai being temporarily held up to strike at the rest of them.
In an instant, everyone immediately gathered into a group, shielding Lu Ming, Jing Jing Taixu, and others with slightly weaker strength in the center.
Their eyes nervously stared at the surging white fog around them. The other terrifying Great Evil Fiend might be hidden within, watching with malice for their opening.
Moreover, this feeling began to grow clearer and clearer.
A suffocating pressure made everyone feel as if they were walking on thin ice.
Even Senior Zong Sha, with his Void Seal-level strength, was drenched in cold sweat on his forehead under that hidden surveillance.
Li Luo's gaze, which had been scanning his surroundings, suddenly hardened, because he noticed that the dense white fog seemed to be gradually closing in on them at this moment, and the rising phase force defense was also beginning to lose its effect.
His gaze swept over the crowd. Even Senior Zong Sha, whose strength had reached the Void Seal level, was now covered in cold sweat, with fear surfacing in his eyes.
After all, a "Great Evil Fiend" lurking in the shadows was truly terrifying for them.
And Li Luo also realized that the "Great Evil Fiend" was deliberately fostering this fearful emotion, because such emotions would make it increasingly excited and powerful.
If this continued, the bizarre white fog would completely break through their phase force defense, and when the "Great Evil Fiend" struck, casualties would surely appear on their side.
Li Luo was silent for a few breaths, then he took a deep breath and his hands suddenly formed seals.
As Qi Yin Fa shifted, tremendous phase force surged skyward, then faintly constructed a mysterious, obscure sword array above their heads.
It was precisely the Many-Phase Dragon Fang Sword Array.
Within the sword array, two Dragon Fang Swords breathed sword light, bobbing up and down unsteadily.
With the appearance of the sword array, terrifying sword Qi was released, shredding much of the white fog permeating the surroundings, and vision immediately became a bit clearer.
The sword array did not launch an attack, but was held in reserve, quietly hovering above everyone's heads.
Senior Zong Sha and Jiang Jiang Wanyu saw this, and their eyes immediately lit up slightly. Li Luo's sword array-like marquis-grade art was of an extremely high grade, so once this art was deployed, it naturally emanated an indescribable dangerous aura.
However, Li Luo did not intend to use the sword array of these two Dragon Fang Swords to kill the "Great Evil Fiend"—that was clearly unrealistic—so Li Luo merely held it in reserve, using the grade of this marquis-grade art as a deterrent.
This was undoubtedly a bit of a bluff, but used against that "Great Evil Fiend," it would likely be very effective.
The mysterious sword array slowly rotated, sword Qi flowing.
And Lu Ming, at this moment, stood behind Li Luo, extending the palm inscribed with the "Ancient Spirit Leaf," and immediately the phase force within his body began to drain rapidly, while simultaneously being transformed and amplified by the "Ancient Spirit Leaf," continuously surging into Li Luo's body to replenish his rapidly depleting phase force.
Time quietly passed.
After roughly several dozen breaths, Senior Zong Sha, Jiang Jiang Wanyu, and the others' pupils suddenly contracted, because they saw a ferocious face inscribed with the character "evil" slowly emerge from the dense white fog ahead.
It seemed to be staring at the sword array, while sharp blood claws slowly extended, as if intending to test the power of the sword array.
Seeing this, everyone's hearts immediately tightened.
Fortunately, after a few breaths, the "Great Evil Fiend" withdrew its blood claws again, silently retreated, and disappeared into the white fog.
Only then did everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
But Li Luo still did not dismiss the sword array, maintaining it instead, to prevent the "Great Evil Fiend" from turning back to attack again.
However, just as their side had calmed down, not long after, from another direction, some screams rang out.
It was—Deng Changbai's team!
