Chapter 144 Anger

Just as Xiao Yun was about to fight with his bare hands, the incredibly hard black chains suddenly snapped without warning.

Xiao Yun fell backward due to inertia, thus avoiding the black-clad cultivator's fatal blow aimed directly at his dantian.

Xiao Xuan withdrew the Heavenly Mystery Invisibility Technique, revealing his true form.

While removing the Heavenly Mystery Invisibility Technique, Si Fan was taken into the wooden bead space.

While the black-clad cultivator was still in a daze, he pulled Xiao Yun behind him.

Xiao Yun came to his senses, and his first reaction was to summon the Dao Asking Sword.

But it didn't work.

Sword Peak

The Dao Asking Sword was sealed by layers of restrictions, its sword light shone brightly, its body trembled violently, and its sword cry resounded throughout the entire Sword Valley.

Elder Shi noticed something amiss at Sword Valley and immediately took out his communication token to send a message to Sect Master Ling Yun.

Lingyun's Courtyard

Ling Yun looked at the message transmitted by the communication token.

Elder Shi: "Sect Master, there is something strange about the Dao Sword."

"The sword light intensified, the sword body trembled violently, and the sword rang incessantly, attempting to break free from the restriction."

Ling Yun released his divine sense and scanned the entire sect. Finding no external enemies, he transmitted his divine sense to Elder Gu Xing of the Enforcement Hall, "Elder Gu, come with me to the forbidden area."

In the forbidden mountain cave

The black-clad cultivator had a sinister look in his eyes, and his killing intent was palpable.

He immediately sensed the abnormality in Sword Valley by projecting his divine sense outwards. He knew that it wouldn't be long before Sect Master Ling Yun and the elders of the Enforcement Hall would come looking for him.

Faced with the choice between staying to retrieve Xiao Yun's sword bone and destroy the evidence, and leaving first, the black-clad cultivator decisively chose the former.

The black-clad cultivator unleashed the pressure of an early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, instantly making the entire cave feel incredibly oppressive.

Chen Chen, who had been asleep, also woke up at this moment.

Chen Chen's stammering voice rang out, "Senior brother, what happened?"

The black-clad cultivator immediately mobilized all his spiritual power and attacked Xiao Xuan, Xiao Yun, and Chen Chen.

With a clear objective, they aimed for a swift victory.

Because, given Ling Yun and the elders of the Enforcement Hall's cultivation levels, they will arrive soon.

Black flames billowed around the black-clad cultivator, his every move swift, ruthless, and precise.

Xiao Xuan shielded Xiao Yun and Chen Chen behind him.

The two were of similar cultivation levels. Although Xiao Xuan's combat strength was inferior to that of the black-clad cultivator, he was not a problem in terms of defense.

Chen Chen stood beside Xiao Yun, his heart pounding with fear.

His gaze kept drifting out of the cave.

They hoped that the sect leader, the elders of the Enforcement Hall, or any elder of the sect would notice the commotion and come to their rescue.

Thinking of the commotion, Chen Chen frowned. Given the attack power of Xiao Xuan and the black-clad cultivator, the cave should have collapsed long ago. The fact that not even a few rocks had fallen was extremely strange.

Xiao Yun and the black-clad cultivator naturally noticed this as well.

The black-clad cultivator gave Xiao Xuan a fierce look, then turned to leave unwillingly.

If he delays any longer, the sect leader and elders will arrive, and it won't be so easy for him to escape unscathed.

Just as the black-clad cultivator was about to fly out of the cave, his body was blocked by an invisible force. The black-clad cultivator was stunned for a moment, then gathered all his spiritual power into his fist and attacked the cave exit with all his might.

However, even when he unleashed his most powerful attack, it was like a stone thrown into the sea, unable to cause the slightest damage to the force blocking the cave exit.

The black-clad cultivator was truly enraged at this moment. He turned around, preparing to burn Xiao Xuan and the others to ashes.

Previously, he had not given it his all.

It wasn't that he was merciful, but rather that he had been coveting Xiao Yun's sword bone for many years and was unwilling to let his efforts come to nothing.

At that moment, blinded by anger, he couldn't care less about anything else.

The black-clad cultivator's lips curled into a bloodthirsty smile, his voice sinister as he said, word by word, "Since you're courting death, then I'll grant your wish."
