Under Master Yao's full power, the clouds in the sky above were reflected in a crimson hue.
Even without looking at the black mist that was retreating step by step under the flames, one could see how powerful Yao Yongjun's move was.
However, even a master of extraordinary skill, after unleashing such a powerful move, began to have his aura become somewhat disordered.
After swallowing a vial of potion, he immediately gave up his position, restoring his momentum and creating space for his attack.
However, this powerful move, though effective, was difficult to sustain. After a brief pause, the flames vanished without a trace.
Although the scorched black mist evaporated into water vapor and disappeared completely in an instant, the next second, wisps of black mist surged in from all directions.
It seemed as if it would be restored to its original state in an instant.
Seeing countless ordinary people lying sprawled on the ground, Meng Lie knew that this was an opportunity not to be missed, and he didn't hesitate.
He immediately unleashed all his mental power to conjure countless tentacles, blocking the black mist from recovering while simultaneously seizing the time to rescue people, continuously pulling out the unconscious civilians from the ground one by one.
Meanwhile, Yao Yongjun, who had already recovered, was using various methods to deplete the black mist and buy him time.
To be fair, the black mist severely hindered mental power, which forced Meng Lie to expend more effort to rescue the humans he had grabbed inside.
Looking at the unconscious man in front of him, whose breath was weak, Meng Lie frowned again.
"As expected, it's the aura of the Heavenly Demon entering their bodies! Although these people haven't been possessed by the Heavenly Demon, they have too much filth in their bodies, and I'm afraid they won't survive."
Even if they manage to survive, it's uncertain how long they can hold on.
Although I've heard that Wang Zheng's special ability can have a purifying effect on this demon, I don't know if it will be successful..."
Although both of them had great confidence in Wang Zheng's strength, Meng Lie hesitated when faced with the strange Heavenly Demon.
He was unsure of what to do, and Yao Yongjun's expression became even more serious.
At this moment, Master Yao, who was responsible for dealing damage, stared intently at the black mist on the ground in the distance.
Seeing the demonic energy rise again and begin to envelop the area once more, his expression turned extremely grim.
"Damn it, what are those beasts lurking in the shadows plotting now? Such a large-scale operation, I'm afraid it's not that simple, there's likely more to come..."
Meng Lie also knew the seriousness of the situation, and although he knew that the source of the black fog was not here, the people he had rescued were still alive, and they could not just abandon them.
After all, their mission was to save the civilians here.
As the black mist gradually gathered again, and his spiritual power was blocked from penetrating it, he could only give Yao Yongjun a bitter smile.
"There's no time to think about that now. There are still quite a few people inside. As long as they have a breath left, we can't just stand by and watch them die. Even if I do my best, it will take at least two more attempts to pull them all out. Master Yao, thank you for your help..."
Faced with Meng Lie's choice, Yao Yongjun felt there was no problem and waved his hand generously.
"That's how it should be..."
Seeing Yao Yongjun begin to gather his strength once more, Meng Lie, while preparing to rescue the man, couldn't help but look towards the distant mountains and mutter to himself:
"This whole situation is strange. I just hope you can successfully destroy the core of this black mist..."
...
Looking up at the distant foot of the mountain where a towering flame had erupted once again, Wang Zheng knew he needed to speed things up.
He and Zhu Jingxian swiftly climbed up the clouds, and saw that the black mist below was where two balls of mysterious light had condensed, which then crashed down.
The spiritual light was still incredibly effective against the black mist of innate talent, like hot water poured into cream, quickly consuming all the surrounding black mist.
Unfortunately, the range of the light was limited and its energy was finite, while the black mist seemed endless and quickly returned to its original state.
Wang Zheng thought for a moment. Since they were all light-type divine abilities, the Annihilation Divine Light also had a damaging effect. It might even be more effective. So he raised his hand and threw down another Annihilation Divine Light.
This time, the black mist beneath his feet seemed to be stimulated and suddenly trembled.
The next second, a vortex with a diameter of about ten meters formed next to the small energy ball, and then the black mist seemed to have encountered something terrifying, and all retreated and scattered.
Ultimately, it was compressed into a fist-sized sphere, which, after twisting wildly, rapidly dissolved under the power of the annihilating divine light.
Under the suppression of this divine light, even the fog surging from all around slowed down considerably.
Compared to Master Zhu's cold energy attack, this was already quite efficient.
Moreover, although Wang Zheng possesses the flame energy of Zhu Yan, it is only a special effect of the visualization object rather than a superpower. Furthermore, Wang Zheng does not have the ability to cause damage over a wide area.
Even if he could compress the candle flame energy ball and launch it inside, who knows what the situation is underneath this black mist?
So he didn't even try, and simply chose to deal with it by unleashing the extinction divine light.
Fortunately, with the help of this divine light, the speed at which the black mist was digested also increased.
What Wang Zheng didn't know was that his actions, reflected in Zhu Jingxian's eyes, made the taciturn grandmaster look at him with even greater respect.
The appreciation in their eyes deepened.
