256 Departure (3)

The black sword watched from the side in fear. It had never seen such a lunatic before.

However, what shocked it even more was that the monster-like human had actually absorbed the golden fog into the black stone slab.

“Hahaha! Let’s go!”

Jiang Ming’s eyes and nose were bleeding. However, he did not care. Before the overwhelming fog hit him, he suddenly grabbed the black sword, turned around, and rushed into the crevice.

After returning to the fog passage, Jiang Ming did not look back and flew upward at full speed.

“Eh? There seems to be someone behind us?” Vaguely, Jiang Ming seemed to have noticed that there were two figures behind him, who were also running back from the depths of the passage.

“Yan Chixia! Stop!”

The two figures at the back immediately recognized the person in front of them and roared excitedly.

“There’s no spiritual energy restriction rule here. We have to kill him even if we have to consume spiritual energy!” The two of them were incomparably excited. They had never thought that they would be able to catch up with this guy.

“So, they’re from the Cangming Grotto-Heaven. Hehe, I’ll give you something good!” Feeling the fog in the passage that had quickly begun to become chaotic, Jiang Ming could not help but smile.

He activated a bunch of random talismans that he had snatched and threw them behind him.

They exploded in the passage. Although they could not kill the two, they blocked their way.

“Hmph, useless tricks! Wait until I catch up to you!” A disciple from the Cangming Grotto-Heaven said with a face full of killing intent.

“Eh? No, this is…” Suddenly, the other person’s expression changed drastically as he sensed the change in the passage.

Terrifying fluctuations came from all directions, and the previously calm fog tunnel became completely violent at this moment.

“Quickly run!”

The two of them screamed. However, it was too late. The tunnel in front of them suddenly turned dark.

It was an ocean-like black fog, mixed with a few wisps of silver, that swept everything away.

“We’re finished!”

The two of them turned pale and were drowned by the surging fog in the blink of an eye. There were sounds of people screaming in the fog. However, soon there was no sound.

“Ah, so scary!”

The culprit, Jiang Ming, had already escaped from the fog passage. Standing in the original cave, he looked back at the fogy passage that was still filled with turbulent fog. He was also amazed.

He looked back and saw that the cave was now empty. There was no one in sight. The stone pool in the middle of the cave had been completely dug out. The stone pillar fragments and the mysterious corpse in the pool had also disappeared.

“Wow, you’re quite fast at scavenging. However, unfortunately. All the good stuff is in my pocket!”

Jiang Ming smiled and rushed out of the ground. He did not meet anyone else. These disciples of the major forces were confident and did not even leave a guard behind.

As for the individual cultivators, they had either died or retreated. No one dared remain here.

“That’s good. It saves me the trouble of killing people. However, I don’t know if Lu Xiaoyu has gone home yet.”

Jiang Ming sighed. He was originally out to find someone. However, who could have expected so many things to happen?

“What?”

Suddenly, Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows. He turned his wrist and took out a Jade Slip from the storage ring.

On the Jade Slip, a crescent moon was carved. It was emitting a faint light.
