Chapter 2014: Chapter 2011: Mist Demon

The teleportation to the Evil Dragon Island Secret Realm is right in this palace.

Lin Bai followed the old man out of the front hall and into the rear hall, where numerous rune marks were etched on the ground.

“Let all warriors step into the teleportation array,”

The old man said loudly.

Many of these warriors had been waiting here since last night, and some were those who couldn’t obtain seats yesterday. They grew impatient long ago, and at the moment they heard the old man’s words, all the warriors promptly stepped into the teleportation array.

Lin Bai was among them.

At this moment, the old man silently operated the magic circle, and the glow of the teleportation array began to brighten, turning all warriors into beams of white light, disappearing within the array.

As the teleportation began, Lin Bai suddenly felt several killing intents gathering upon him. He turned to look back and happened to see the unfriendly gaze of the Huang Family Four Brothers.

Their eyes were filled with ruthlessness and ferocity, as if saying: “Prepare to die!”

Lin Bai slightly shook his head. From the words of warriors in the great hall earlier, he had already sensed that the Huang Family Four Brothers were not easy to deal with.

Since he had already offended them before, they probably wouldn’t let him off that easily.

However, Lin Bai didn’t worry much. Although in the Southern Yard area, warriors couldn’t be slain at will, once inside the Evil Dragon Island Secret Realm, those restrictions no longer applied.

“If they come for revenge on Evil Dragon Island, I’ll ensure they never return.” Lin Bai’s eyes flashed with a menacing light, and he coldly thought.

Swish—

The teleportation array’s light flickered, and Lin Bai’s view was covered by blinding white light. After feeling the heavens and earth shake, he arrived at another world.

Caw caw caw—

The white light hadn’t yet fully dissipated before Lin Bai heard the eerie cries of crows echoing around him.

In the forest, a white light fell from outside the Nine Heavens Cloud, seeming to drop from another space into this forest.

As the white light faded, Lin Bai’s figure emerged.

Lin Bai looked up and saw that the world before him was nothing like the harmony of the Southern Yard Archipelago…

This was a vast island, with trees on the island entirely black, many of which lacked leaves, and those that did bore black leaves that appeared especially sinister and terrifying.

The sky was shrouded in an impenetrable black haze, with black trees standing on the black earth. Crows perched on the treetops, their black eyes staring at Lin Bai as if waiting for him to meet his end.

“Is this Evil Dragon Island?”

Lin Bai looked around, but found no trace of any warriors.

“It seems there are no fixed teleportation points within the Evil Dragon Island Secret Realm, and all warriors were randomly transported to different locations on the island.”

“I wonder which part of Evil Dragon Island this black forest belongs to?”

Lin Bai walked cautiously through the forest, looking at the barren black woods on both sides, and his face showed a hint of solemnity.

Whoosh whoosh—

Squalls howled through the forest continually, cold winds like knives tearing at Lin Bai’s skin, with sounds resembling ghostly cries and wolf howls that disturbed the warriors’ mind.

Even Lin Bai felt irritated hearing these sounds, with a growing desire for slaughter.

Roar—

Suddenly.

A ground-shaking roar echoed, thundering through the heavens, with the earth rumbling.

Lin Bai’s expression changed instantly, and the Demonic Sword flew out from his storage bag, tightly gripped in his hand.

At that very moment, from the woods to Lin Bai’s right, a gust whipped up a swirl of black leaves, charging towards Lin Bai.

Within this gust and black leaves seemed to be something hidden inside.

“Slash!”

Though he didn’t know what monster lay within the wind, as it rushed at him, Lin Bai swung his sword, launching a fierce strike downward.

With a thunderous crash.

Sword Qi struck the monster wind, exploding violently, sending black leaves flying.

In that instance, Lin Bai caught a glimpse of the monster within the gust—it was a creature shrouded in black mist, with blood-red eyes.

“Mist Demon!”

Lin Bai’s face flashed without backing down.

Before arriving at Evil Dragon Island, Fang Yiyun had specifically told Lin Bai about various monsters on the island.

Among them was the Mist Demon.

The Mist Demon was a relatively common monster on Evil Dragon Island, with strength only at the first level of the Life-and-Death Realm, making it fairly easy to handle.

“Didn’t expect to encounter a Mist Demon right away, perfect for practice!” Lin Bai sneered, the Demonic Sword in his hand shimmering coldly.

The Mist Demon stared at Lin Bai with its blood-red eyes, growling incessantly, suddenly rolling its form to stir up a massive storm, sweeping towards him.

“Single-Stroke Sword Skill!”

“Four Gods Sword Slash!”

Lin Bai wielded his sword, slashing forward.

A sword shadow and glow struck the Mist Demon, but the Sword Qi penetrated through its body instantly.

The Mist Demon continued its assault, coalescing the mist into a sharp claw to rend Lin Bai’s chest open, attempting to extract his heart.

Just as the Mist Demon’s strike arrived, Lin Bai’s body instinctively released Thunderbolt Power.

Crack—

Before the Mist Demon’s claw hit Lin Bai’s chest, thunder struck the demon, sending it flying.

“Howl howl—” The Mist Demon was struck by the thunder, letting out a piercing shriek, as even the mist enveloping its body seemed about to disperse!

Simultaneously, its blood-red eyes showed clear dread for the Thunderbolt Power on Lin Bai.

“So you’re scared of Thunderbolt!”

“Of course, Thunderbolt is the most powerful and dominating force of heaven and earth, while you Mist Demons are dark and wicked creatures—Thunderbolt is your nemesis!”

“Then since that’s the case.”

“Qingmu Divine Thunder Sword!”

Seeing the situation, Lin Bai’s aura surged, gathering immense power, as a pillar of lightning sword energy struck forth.

Hitting the Mist Demon, which screamed terribly, its body exploding, turning into a cloud of dust and disappearing.

Along with the Mist Demon’s explosion, a fingertip-sized blue crystal remained suspended in the air.

“Is this the Spiritual Energy Crystal?”

Lin Bai approached, holding the fingertip-sized blue crystal in his hand, and the Devouring Sword Spirit inside him absorbed all its spiritual power.

However, this Spiritual Energy Crystal was too small, and Lin Bai didn’t immediately break through to a new state after absorption.

“Evil Dragon Island is rumored to be formed when Lord Yuan Mo slew a Divine Dragon in the God-Demon Sea!”

“The Divine Dragon fell, and grudges lingered, birthing these demons and monsters.”

“And I possess the Qingmu Divine Thunder Power, the most powerful thunder of heaven and earth, a perfect nemesis to these evil creatures.”

Lin Bai smiled slightly, knowing without the Qingmu Divine Thunder Body Protection, he couldn’t have so easily defeated the Mist Demon!

“Then let’s proceed, hopefully encounter more Mist Demons…” With this thought, Lin Bai moved deeper into the forest.
