Everyone calmed down a little and began to think about their next move.

Mo Xi always felt uneasy and looked at Mu Li worriedly, "A Li, take out the Book of Life and Death and let me see it!"

Although Mu Li was puzzled, she still took out the Book of Life and Death from her body.

In an instant, a terrifying pressure swept over.

Everyone looked at the Book of Life and Death in Mu Li's hand, half of which was glowing with golden light and half was shrouded in black mist, and was so surprised that they forgot to react.

"This? How did the Book of Life and Death become like this?" Mu Li shouted in horror.

"What's wrong, Junior Sister? Is there something wrong?" Xuan Yiheng asked hurriedly.

"It wasn't like this before. It used to be radiating golden light, noble and mysterious! Unlike now, half of it is covered by black fog, giving people an evil and ominous feeling!" Mu Li said worriedly as she looked at the Book of Life and Death.

Xuan Yiheng frowned and said solemnly, "The changes in this Book of Life and Death are definitely not ordinary. I'm afraid some mysterious power has caused it to change."

Xuan Sichen also agreed: "Yes, this black fog looks eerie and strange, which makes people feel creepy."

Mu Li looked at Mo Xi anxiously: "What should we do? Can we restore it to its original state?"

Mo Xi pondered for a moment and said, "Don't panic, Ali. The Book of Life and Death is your life-originated magical weapon. Can you sense the origin of this black fog?"

"I'll try." Mu Li said, closing her eyes, taking a deep breath, and then slowly gathering the spiritual power in her body to her fingertips.

She concentrated her mind, trying to inject her spiritual energy into the Book of Life and Death. As the spiritual energy flowed, she felt an unfamiliar force surge within the Book of Life and Death, but she was unable to fully control it.

Fine beads of sweat began to appear on her forehead and her face turned pale.

But she did not give up and continued to try hard to control the power.

Suddenly, the black mist on the Book of Life and Death began to surge violently, as if it were given life, rolling continuously.

The aura in the black fog became increasingly dense and mysterious, making people feel an inexplicable fear.

The black mist seemed to be trying to break free from the constraints of the Book of Life and Death, spreading out in all directions and giving people a strong sense of oppression.

"Be careful!" Xuan Wuyuan shouted loudly.

Everyone stepped back, staring at the Book of Life and Death vigilantly.

The black fog gradually condensed into a vague human outline.

"What is this?" Mu Li asked in a trembling voice.

The humanoid silhouette let out a low, creepy laugh.

Mo Xi gritted his teeth and said, "No matter what it is, let's try to dispel it first!"

As he spoke, he cast a powerful spell, and a beam of light shot towards the black mist figure.

However, the light was easily absorbed by the human figure.

"Oh no, this thing is very powerful!" Xuan Yiheng said.

Mu Li clenched her fists tightly and said, "Is there no way to deal with it?"

At this time, the humanoid began to speak: "Why do you want to expel me?!"

Mu Li asked loudly, "Who are you? Why are you in the Book of Life and Death?"

The figure sneered, "Hahaha, don't you know why I'm in the Book of Life and Death? Because I am the Book of Life and Death, and the Book of Life and Death is me!"

Mo Xi was startled, looking at the humanoid black mist that gradually revealed its true appearance, "You?"

Everyone was also stunned when they saw Heiwu's appearance.

"Who are you?" Mu Li looked angrily at the human-shaped black mist in front of her who looked exactly like her but was wearing black clothes, and shouted sternly.

"Didn't I say it? I am the Book of Life and Death!" said the human-shaped black mist.

"Impossible!" Mu Li retorted loudly.

Mu Li didn't know why she was so sure, but when she heard Hei Wu say that she was the Book of Life and Death, the word "impossible" popped up in Mu Li's subconscious.

"How is it impossible?" Black Mist said with an evil smile.

"..." Mu Li was speechless for a moment. She couldn't say that her subconscious told her it was impossible.

The black fog snorted coldly and quickly pounced towards everyone.

Everyone quickly cast spells to resist.

For a moment, light flashed and spells intertwined.

But the black mist figure seemed to have great strength, and everyone gradually felt exhausted.

Just when everyone was about to collapse, a powerful force suddenly erupted from Mu Li's body.

This force instantly repelled the black mist figure.

"This...what's going on?" Xuan Sichen said in surprise.

Mu Li herself was also bewildered.

Mo Xi looked at Mu Li and said, "Perhaps this is the power that the Book of Life and Death gives you in times of crisis."

But the black mist figure did not give up and rushed over again...

"You abandoned me back then. Don't you want to abandon me again now?" Black Mist said angrily.

"What do you mean?" Mu Li said in shock.

The humanoid black mist let out a shrill laugh. "Do you really remember nothing? Everyone has both good and evil sides. The Book of Life and Death records the lives of all living beings in the world in detail. Over time, it developed intelligence. After the baptism of the long river of time, the intelligence gradually took shape and became a living being. After seeing the human nature and ugliness in the world, it gradually developed inner demons!"

Everyone gasped when they heard this.

"Once, in pursuit of the so-called righteous path, you sealed me deep in the Book of Life and Death. Now, I finally have the chance to see the light of day again, but you want to destroy me again! Why?" The black fog asked loudly.

Mu Li's eyes widened in disbelief: "I...I don't remember this happening!"

Mo Xi frowned: "No matter whether what you said is true or false, based on your evil appearance now, I will not let you succeed!"
