Chu Chen's flying speed was fast, but the speed of those cultivators being swallowed by the fog was even faster!
When Chu Chen arrived beside them, they had already turned into a pool of blood. In the blink of an eye, they were swallowed by the fog and turned into nothingness.
Five living cultivators were swallowed by the fog?!
All the cultivators felt a chill run down their spines. It was as though a chill had run straight to the back of their heads.
The scene in front of them was too … too terrifying. In the blink of an eye, several Spirit River cultivators were silently swallowed up by the fog!
"They … they're gone …"
"Damned fog! This damned place is filled with fog. If the fog can kill people, what should we do? We have nowhere to go! "
"Perhaps … perhaps the fog won't randomly kill people. They must have done something wrong to be killed. Let's behave … it's … it's fine."
The group of cultivators completely panicked. They wanted to escape but didn't know where to go. Some people couldn't face reality and could only comfort themselves.
Chu Chen looked at the little hamster that had returned to his shoulder. "What's going on here?"
The little hamster frowned. It wanted to say something, but just as it opened its mouth, it was suddenly stunned.
Chu Chen also discovered that the cultivators' despair seemed to have activated something.
The surrounding mist seemed to have "awakened" all of a sudden. Visible to the naked eye, the mist began to surge violently like boiling water.
In the depths of the fog, strange and indescribable auras surged and wanted to strangle everyone!
"Be careful, disperse the fog. Don't let it touch you!"
Seeing the rolling fog gather in layers, the little hamster warned. Everyone's body flashed with spirit light.
Almost in an instant, every cultivator pushed their cultivation base to the limit. Dense spiritual energy transformed into layers of light shields that enveloped the area.
Tens of people joined forces and created a Spirit Light Domain. Immediately, all of the fog was forced to a hundred feet away from their bodies.
At this moment, no one relaxed. Instead, they became even more afraid.
"What's going on?"
Chu Chen looked at the thick fog surging around him.
The little hamster let out a long sigh. "It should be the fog world's doing?"
"Could it be that this fog world is alive?"
Ye Man, whose red dress was fluttering in the wind to drive away the thick fog, frowned slightly.
"It could be said that this fog world isn't just an area shrouded in fog. It's more like a powerful life form."
The little hamster's voice became especially low.
"Is this fog a complete life form?" Ye Man asked again.
"I can't say for sure if it's a complete life form, but the thick fog surrounding the immortal crystal mountain is a creature in a state of Chaos. It should be an evil creature born from the magnetic field of this immortal crystal mountain."
"You mean it has intelligence, but it's in a chaotic state?"
"That's right. It's evil, powerful, and greedy, but it's not very smart. Although it can block the senses of cultivators that enter its domain and devour them, it's only acting on instinct."
Ye Man listened to the little hamster's introduction and was inwardly shocked. Fortunately, the fog didn't have intelligence. Otherwise, they wouldn't have a chance to survive.
However, it was only acting on instinct to attack them. They couldn't resist it.
"Teacher Cang, you mentioned that there's an ancient formation in the immortal crystal mountain?"
Chu Chen asked in a deep voice as he looked at the churning evil fog.
"Yes, I estimate that there should be an ancient formation that's a few thousand kilometers in size underground."
The little hamster narrowed its eyes.
"So it was such a huge ancient evil formation that nurtured this abnormal fog. This formation shouldn't exist in this world. It can only be said that the person who created the formation is too ruthless."
Chu Chen's gaze darkened.
"Chu Chen, you're wrong. This huge formation should be a seal."
The little hamster shook its head.
"Seal?"
Before Chu Chen could speak, Ye Man spoke first. She was very surprised. "If it's a seal, it means that this huge formation exists to suppress something."
"Sister Ye Man is very knowledgeable. This huge formation was originally created to suppress and seal a treasure in the immortal crystal mountain. However, as time passed, this formation was corroded and infected by the treasure. In the end, it became an evil formation. Then, countless evil spirits were born in the immortal crystal mountain area. The thick fog is just one of them."
As soon as the little hamster said that, the cultivators who were listening quietly all looked at each other.
This legendary immortal crystal mountain was indeed not a good place. No wonder so many powerful cultivators came in and didn't return.
"I'm a little curious. What kind of treasure is this huge formation suppressing? Senior Sister Ye, do you know?"
Chu Chen suddenly changed the topic and asked Ye Man softly.
"This … this, how would I know?"
Ye Man smiled a little unnaturally.
"That's true."
Chu Chen nodded slightly. He had long known that Ye Man was definitely not an ordinary cultivator. She had come here with her own purpose.
During the process of interacting with her, he also discovered that her original identity should be extremely noble, and she had hidden her beauty.
Perhaps this mysterious red-clothed woman had come for the secret treasure under the huge formation?
Perhaps the treasure that the Nine Heavens had been searching for when they occupied this immortal crystal mountain was also this secret treasure.
"Ahem, my good little brother, to tell you the truth, I really don't know what the ultimate treasure in this immortal crystal mountain is, but I heard from Master Cang that it should be the most powerful evil treasure in this small immortal world. You must not get close to this kind of thing. Stay as far away as you can."
Looking at Ye Man's concerned eyes, Chu Chen knew that she was sincerely worried about him.
Chu Chen nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
At this time, the cultivators discovered that the turbulent fog around them gradually calmed down. It no longer bared its fangs and brandished its claws to attack them.
Instead, it returned to its previous state, ethereal and untraceable, surging with the wind.
"This fog is in a state of chaos. Sometimes it's restless, sometimes it's asleep. After the excitement just now, it seems to be gradually falling asleep again."
The little hamster's words gave everyone a glimmer of hope.
Chu Chen also understood that the fog's restlessness seemed to be periodic. The calm period seemed to be relatively safer, but in this foggy world, other than the fog itself, there was nothing else.
In this fog, there were also countless powerful evil creatures, ready to attack them at any time.
Back and forth, this fog world was really a dead end!
Then what should they do next?
Chu Chen was thinking about how to survive in this land of death when he suddenly saw a light in the fog a thousand feet in front of him.
Was it sword light?!
Chu Chen's expression changed abruptly. He was just about to warn everyone when he saw a terrifying sword light burst out from the depths of the void in front of them. Wherever the sword light passed, an extremely bright cut appeared in the air.
All the fog seemed to be repelled by a huge invisible force, surging and retreating in all directions!
With a slash of the sword, the fog retreated several thousand feet, forming a huge vacuum in the blink of an eye!
The strong sword light dissipated, and a few white figures slowly floated up from the sword light.
The person in the lead was dressed in snow-white clothes. His face was handsome and his expression was cold and arrogant. He was one of the leaders of the Nine Heavens Formation Breaking Team in the Crystal Gorge Mining Area, Zhao Hai.
