The floating island was originally formed from the radiance formed from the power of Turbid Wave Pavilion's formation here, combining with the clouds and mist that filled the skies of Clear Concealed Lake.
At this moment, dark clouds covered the sky, and under the terrifying aura, the floating island was also dyed black.
Inside the black island, there was a faint flash of strange red light.
As the red light pulsed, the floating island shook violently. The blood-red light turned into cracks that looked like sharp wounds.
The floating island immediately shattered and began to disintegrate.
At the same time that the floating island in mid-air began to disintegrate, Clear Concealed Island below also began to shake violently.
The huge island gradually sank into the lake, until it was completely submerged.
As Clear Concealed Island sank, in the central region of Clear Concealed Lake, the waters of the lake formed a massive whirlpool. The center of the whirlpool was pitch-black, as though it was a black hole.
A terrifying suction force came from the black hole, wanting to drag everything in the surroundings in.
Hovering Island was right above the black hole. Affected by that massive suction force, the fragments of Hovering Island that had collapsed fell downwards along with Yan Zhaoge and the others on the island!
"There's a change in the plan!" Yan Zhaoge and the others exchanged glances, all reading the same thoughts from each other's gazes.
Fortunately, when the black clouds covered the sky again, everyone had a premonition in their hearts.
While Clear Concealed Island had directly sunk down below, even forming a black hole that was out of everyone's expectations, Yan Zhaoge and the others were still not caught unprepared.
Yan Zhaoge tapped lightly on a fragment of Hovering Sky Island, his entire person leapt up, landing on Pan-Pan's back, with Ah Hu following closely by his side.
Swivelling his head to look, Yan Zhaoge relaxed. He saw that Sikong Qing had already been grabbed by Xue Fei, stepping on the fragment of Floating Sky Island as they quickly fled into the distance.
As for the other Sacred Grounds, Infinite Boundless Mountain had Ji Hanru leading the way, while Turbid Wave Pavilion had Xie Youchan and Ruan Ping. Jade Sea City had Song Chao and Ye Zhongzhou.
The Xiantian Realm disciples of the various clans with higher cultivation bases would take care of their Junior Brothers and Junior Sisters with slightly lower cultivation bases.
Everyone used the floating island fragments to escape as far as possible from the center of the black hole below.
The floating island shattered, and everyone descended. Because of the black hole, the falling speed was even faster.
If they wanted to dodge in time, they would have to struggle free from the suction force of the black hole. Physical invulnerability Grandmasters and Inner Invulnerability Grandmasters had the heart but lacked the strength. They needed the help of Innate Grandmasters.
Among the disciples of the six Holy Lands. Only the situation of the Heavenly Thunder Hall was comparatively worse. Xie Ziyi had already been injured in the first place, his mental state even more unstable.
At this moment, even he himself was like a clay Bodhisattva crossing the river, unable to protect himself, let alone Chen Lin and the others.
Fortunately, over at the Sacred Sun Clan's side, Tang Yonghao had noticed this problem in time, his cultivation also high, thus being able to bring Xie Ziyi, Chen Lin and the others along to break out of the encirclement.
Everyone rushed out. Thanks to their quick reflexes, they did not fall straight into the black hole.
But at the edge of the black hole, they could still feel the strong suction force. It was like a quicksand pit, trying to drag everyone around it into it.
Under the effects of the massive formation that sparkled with black light, the previously beautiful and marvelous Clear Concealed Lake had now completely changed its appearance.
In the distance, the black lake water churned as if it was boiling.
And in the region close to the black hole at the centre of the lake, the lake water had disappeared, only leaving behind a patch of pitch black, resembling sludge that had clogged up Clear Concealed Lake.
Stepping on the sludge, Yan Zhaoge, Pan-Pan and Ah Hu instantly felt as though the black sludge beneath their feet had a life of its own. It curled towards their feet.
That terrifying aura that shook one's heart grew stronger and stronger at this moment.
Yan Zhaoge and the others released their aura-qi, keeping the sludge at bay as they continued advancing towards the outskirts of Clear Concealed Lake.
The further they were from the centre of the formation. The smaller these negative effects were.
Following closely behind Yan Zhaoge, Ah Hu said vexedly, "Didn't you say that everything was within your grasp? Why is Young Master risking your lives again? "
Yan Zhaoge looked back towards the black hole that had appeared where Clear Concealed Island had vanished, "While the Heavenly Thunder Hall provided us with some information, allowing us to identify the spies of the Decimating Abyss Organisation."
"However, this does not mean that all the spies of the Decimating Abyss Organisation are within our grasp."
"It is not that the Heavenly Thunder Hall did not report it, but that their knowledge is similarly limited."
"Everything that happened before. It is precisely because of the limited information that the plan was made as conservatively as possible, in order to guard against unexpected situations. "
Yan Zhaoge's expression was a rarely seen seriousness, "However, in the end, there was still an oversight. This means that the Decimating Abyss Organisation, or should I say the Nine Underworlds, has infiltrated the Eight Extremities World, our clan included, far surpassing everyone's imaginations."
"The Martial Grandmaster experts who have come here to ambush us were all chosen by the various Sacred Grounds to be the most trustworthy, the least suspicious."
At this point, Yan Zhaoge sighed, "However, from the looks of it now, some of these people have also met with problems. I can only hope that not too many of them have met with problems. Otherwise, we would really be sending lambs into a tiger's den this time."
Ah Hu's face was bitter, "Who could it be? Being able to rise to such a high position in the six great Sacred Grounds, why would they get involved with the Decimating Abyss Organisation? "
Yan Zhaoge did not speak, his gaze focused as he revealed a pondering look, "Let's see if the backup plan can work. However, if the backup plan is also leaked, being targeted by the enemy, today's matter is destined to be hard to resolve."
In the distance, intense fluctuations of power emanated from various directions. Clearly, many experts were currently scattered in various locations, engaging in battle.
Meanwhile, the terrifying aura that enveloped Clear Concealed Lake was growing denser and denser.
The black light formation seemed to have opened a great door to the Nine Underworlds of this human world.
Accompanied by the unceasing use of the formation, the black mud beneath Yan Zhaoge and the others' feet also began to grow more and more strange and violent.
The martial practitioners within the lake resembled flickering candles in the wind, extinguishing one by one as they were engulfed by the mud.
"Young Master!" Ah Hu's expression was stern as Yan Zhaoge said to him, "Don't worry about me. Just pay attention to your own safety, especially guarding your mind; don't let the devilish qi take advantage of you."
"At this moment, the Great Nine Underworlds Door is actually still far from truly opening. It is only a sliver of its aura leaking out from the crack in the door. As long as we remain within ourselves, we will be able to stabilise our minds."
Saying thus, the two were engulfed by the mud.
Yan Zhaoge's vision darkened, but he did not feel suffocated. That devilish qi that looked like mud, when truly situated within it, was like being within a dense fog.
Pan-Pan followed closely by Yan Zhaoge's side, curiously surveying their surroundings.
As Yan Zhaoge slowly led him forward, the scene before him suddenly changed as a purple light of thunder flickered.
Within the light of thunder, a human figure appeared. It was, shockingly, Xie Ziyi!
It was only that the current Xie Ziyi had completely recovered from his injuries, and his aura seemed to be even stronger than before. However, his entire person appeared strange and distorted.
Seeing Yan Zhaoge, his eyes lit up, and a strange smile appeared on his face.
The next moment, Xie Ziyi's figure suddenly disappeared. When he reappeared, a terrifying and evil purple sword-light had already arrived in front of Yan Zhaoge!
"Fallen to the dark side?" Yan Zhaoge frowned slightly, "Since you are seeking death, I shall grant your wish."
