Chapter 611

The two returned to the mountain again, but this time Luo En sensed that the entire mountain had lost the aura of the curse.

Could it be that the opponent truly fled out of fear and will never return here?

Thinking of this, Luo En let out a breath of relief.

Yet he still could not let his guard down, for he had not yet seen the curse's form.

Who knew if the curse was hiding in the shadows, waiting to strike Luo En suddenly as they approached?

Luo En spoke to Nai Zi.

"Be careful. Although I haven't sensed the curse's aura, that doesn't mean it hasn't lain in ambush nearby."

"The curse is extremely cunning, and it especially loves to scheme against others."

Nai Zi nodded and said.

"Don't worry. I've dealt with curses longer than you have."

"I understand them better than you do."

As they spoke, the two had already reached the mountaintop and stood before the small, dilapidated hut.

The small, dilapidated hut now looked even more ruined.

Without the curse's presence, wind and rain had left it showing signs of decay.

Many parts had rotted away, and large chunks of wood had collapsed.

It was clear that, with time, it would soon collapse entirely.

No traces left by the curse were found nearby, nor was the curse's form seen.

Luo En finally let out a long breath.

Though relieved, his heart tightened again.

If the curse isn't here, then where has it gone? He must be found and this threat eliminated.

At that moment, Luo En suddenly felt a strange energy rising from beneath the earth.

Soon he felt the entire ground trembling continuously.

Could it be an earthquake? Luo En quickly pulled Nai Zi backward.

Although they were on the mountain, even an earthquake wouldn't directly affect them.

But they knew that if a landslide occurred, they would be in grave danger.

The mountain's shaking grew more obvious, and a crack had already appeared beneath Luo En's feet.

Luo En was stunned—he had not anticipated such a thing happening here.

Nai Zi's face was equally shocked.

"What's happening? Why is it shaking so violently?"

Luo En said.

"If it's not an earthquake, then someone is attacking us."

Nai Zi clenched her fists and drew two long swords from her waist.

The two long swords gleamed brilliantly in the sunlight; Nai Zi handed one to Luo En.

But Luo En refused—he didn't need a long sword now.

Instead, he spread his curse energy throughout his body, then concentrated it into his fist, unleashing its full power.

"Be careful. Don't let the enemy ambush you."

Luo En said grimly.

Nai Zi nodded. Having fought so many battles, she knew exactly the critical points.

So when she sensed an odd sound behind her, she immediately turned and slashed with her sword.

Nai Zi's strength was formidable, and her speed was exceptionally swift.

After swinging her blade, she swiftly crouched and retreated, putting distance between herself and the opponent.

These moves flowed together like water—smooth and seamless.

The next instant, Nai Zi saw a dark figure standing not far away.

Her sword had just cut through the shadow.

But the shadow suffered no damage and charged at Nai Zi again.

Nai Zi was shocked. Though she had fought curses many times before,

her curse energy had always inflicted fatal harm upon them.

Yet this curse had somehow withstood her curse energy.

How was this possible? Had these curses gained the ability to resist curse energy?

As she retreated, she glanced at Luo En—he had already rushed forward and punched out.

The punch carried the aura of curse energy.

That terrifying force instantly repelled the curse.

Luo En realized that the curse they now faced was not the same one from before.

This curse's strength was clearly much weaker.
