Outside the valley, Ming Yue was still sitting cross-legged. It seemed that he had not left for a few days.
Not long after Shen Luo entered the Sun Moon Hall, he suddenly received a strict order from the guide to keep a close eye on Shen Luo. If there were any abnormal movements, he would immediately report it.
At this moment, an evil aura suddenly came from the Sun Moon Hall. All the hair on Ming Yue's body stood up and his mind trembled.
"What's going on?" He suddenly opened his eyes and took out a jade pendant. It was engraved with dense runes. It seemed to be a communication item. He was about to activate it.
However, the evil aura coming from the Sun Moon Hall suddenly disappeared as if it had never appeared.
Ming Yue was stunned. He spread out his divine sense to carefully explore the aura in the hall, but he did not sense anything.
"Did I sense it wrong?" Ming Yue thought. He spread out his divine sense to explore the Sun Moon Hall again, but he still did not sense anything.
He looked at the jade pendant in his hand, shook his head, and put it away.
He was not confident that the aura just now really existed. Naturally, he could not report it to the guide. Even if it was true, it was not a big deal. Shen Luo was refining treasures in the Sun Moon Hall. It was possible that the evil aura was the aura of some treasure.
Inside the Sun Moon Hall, Shen Luo's face was full of pain.
A black figure stood not far from him. His two hands quickly formed seals and activated a white array flag. The Yin and Yang Dust Array around the hall stabilized again, blocking all the evil aura.
That black figure was Gui Jiang.
"Continue … use all your strength to activate the array … don't let the evil aura spread outside …" Shen Luo said with difficulty.
"Master, don't worry. I will do my best." Gui Jiang hurriedly said. He looked at Shen Luo with a trace of fear in his eyes.
Shen Luo nodded and immediately closed his eyes. He used all his strength to activate the Demon Slayer Sword and the Pure Yang Sword to resist the evil aura.
Time passed by. After a full quarter of an hour, the evil aura on his body gradually subsided.
When Shen Luo completely recovered, it was already an hour later.
"Master, are you alright?" Gui Jiang flew over and asked with concern.
"I'm fine now." Shen Luo opened his eyes and said faintly.
"That's good." Gui Jiang sighed in relief.
They were now in Wu Zhuang Taoist Temple. If anything happened to Shen Luo, a ghost like him would not have a good ending.
The Ghost General glanced at the Sun Moon Universal Cauldron and the Earth Core Sacred Flame before speaking with a pained expression, "Master, this place is scorching hot. It is harmful to my ghost body. Let me hide in the Qiankun Bag."
Shen Luo nodded. With a wave of his hand, he put the Ghost General into his Qiankun Bag. Then, he closed his eyes and began to think about the Devil Qi.
The eruption of Demonic Qi seemed to be getting more and more serious. Fortunately, he had the Demon Slayer Sword, so he was able to suppress it for the time being.
The only thing he could do now was to improve his cultivation as soon as possible. On the one hand, he wanted to reach the True Immortal Stage as soon as possible so that he could guide the thunder and lightning to refine his body. On the other hand, the higher his cultivation, the more he could stimulate the pure Yang energy in the Demon Slayer Sword.
At the same time, he had to find more pure Yang treasures. For example, the Pure Yang Sword had helped a lot in suppressing the Devil Qi this time.
"The first time the Devil Qi flared up, it was because of the Jiuli Demonic Armor. The second time was because of Yuan Tiangang's investigation. The third time was not triggered by anything else. Why did the Devil Qi suddenly flare up?" Shen Luo thought about the reason for the Devil Qi's outbreak.
This time, he was sure that there was no external trigger for the Devil Qi's outbreak. Since that was the case, the problem should be with him.
"Could it be because I have been refining treasures for several days and consumed too much of my magic power and Divine Soul?" Shen Luo thought of a possible reason. The more he thought about it, the more likely it was.
This kind of thing was not unprecedented. Even if a mortal had a chronic disease in his body, it was easy to cause the disease to flare up if he was too tired.
"It seems that I have to be more careful in the future." Shen Luo secretly warned.
He immediately closed his eyes and operated the Divine Wood Favor to check the situation of his Natal Vital Qi. His face sank.
As he expected, his Natal Vital Qi was contaminated by the Devil Qi.
Shen Luo operated the Divine Wood Favor to refine the Devil Qi in his Natal Vital Qi.
This time, his Natal Vital Qi was more contaminated by the Devil Qi. The refining time was also rather long. It took a full day and night before he stopped.
Although most of the Devil Qi was refined and expelled, the black-red Fiendish Qi in his Natal Vital Qi increased by a sliver.
The Natal Vital Qi was related to the foundation of one's life. If anything happened, it would be a huge matter.
Shen Luo's face was gloomy, but he could not think of a good solution at the moment. The only thing he could do was to be careful in the future and not let the Devil Qi erupt again.
He sighed and got up to put away the few sets of array tools in the hall. He turned around and was about to leave.
"Boom!" A loud sound rang out. The Sun Moon Hall's door suddenly opened. A formless huge force attacked with earth-shattering force.
Shen Luo was shocked. The Moon Shadow under his feet shone brightly. His body retreated with incomparable speed. However, this huge force was even faster. It caught up with him in the blink of an eye.
However, he did not panic. He activated the sword art and changed it.
A red sword ray that was dozens of feet long shot out from his hand. It was the Pure Yang Sword. He slashed in the air in front of him.
This huge force was immediately cut in half. It brushed past his body and flew backward, bombarding the ground of the Sun Moon Hall.
A layer of red light appeared on the Sun Moon Universe Formation on the ground. It easily shattered the two huge forces. It was not damaged at all.
Shen Luo then had the time to look outside. He frowned.
He saw two middle-aged men standing outside. They were the two Elders of the Fifth Manor from the Hundred Fruit Immortal Gathering.
One of the Elders held a green long sword, while the other held a mountain-splitting axe that was taller than a person. The one who attacked just now was the Elder who held the axe.
"Shen Luo, our Fifth Manor has treated you well. How dare you steal our Ginseng Fruits again and again. You even destroyed the fruit trees. This time, we will not let you go. Give me your life!" The Elder who held the mountain-splitting axe was furious. The axe flew out and appeared above Shen Luo's head in a flash. Its size increased by several times and slashed down at Shen Luo's head.
"Elder Qin Shan, what did you say? The Ginseng Fruit Trees were destroyed? What happened? "Shen Luo was shocked when he heard this. He dodged the attack.
During the Hundred Fruit Immortal Gathering, he had already learned the names of these two Elders. This one was called Qin Shan. The other Elder who was controlling the green flying sword was called Li, and his name was He.
"Shen Luo, since you dare to do such a thing, why don't you dare to admit it?" Elder Li He attacked as well. The green flying sword in his hand shot out like lightning, producing blurry sword shadows that resembled smoke and rain. They enveloped Shen Luo's body.
"Misty Rain Sword Art!" Shen Luo recognized the sword art used by the person. It was the famous Misty Rain Sword Art of the Fifth Manor.
The sword art was like smoke and rain. It alternated between reality and illusion, dazzling one's eyes and making it impossible to figure out. Every move seemed illusory, but once the opponent revealed a flaw, the illusory sword shadows would immediately turn corporeal and kill. Countless cultivators had been confused by the alternation, dying under the Misty Rain Sword Art for no apparent reason.
