At this moment, the dark figure seemed to have completed some kind of activation, suddenly transforming into a black vortex that stretched towards the top of the tower.
At the end of the vortex, a huge stone gate slowly appeared.
"Nine Heavens Emperor, welcome to the Gate of Despair!"
The shadowy figure's voice became incredibly arrogant.
"Once you dare to step inside, you will never be able to escape!"
"Master, this guy is playing tricks!"
Little Fire patted its tail.
"Once we go inside, we'll know what kind of tricks they're up to! I reckon it's probably their lair inside!"
"Walk!"
Ye Lingtian said coldly and strode towards the stone gate.
"Whatever it tries to do, it will ultimately be in vain!"
"Alright! I'll keep a close eye on it this time!"
Little Fire followed closely behind, a blazing fire igniting between its claws, ready to strike at any moment.
The stone gate slowly opened, and a strong sense of evil rushed out, accompanied by a low humming sound.
Inside the door was a huge circular space, with a massive magic circle at its center. At the core of the magic circle floated a dark red crystal, emitting a dazzling light.
"Master, something's definitely wrong with this crystal!"
Little Fire's eyes widened.
"Is it some kind of core of the Void Abyss?"
"It's very likely a node connecting to the Void Abyss!"
Ye Lingtian's gaze was cold and stern. He casually set up a barrier to completely isolate the evil energy.
"Be careful of your surroundings, this place might not be the only one!"
Little Fire immediately became alert, its tail slightly raised, and its eyes scanning the surroundings.
"I knew it! This place couldn't be that simple! Master, don't worry, with me here, I'll make sure these guys don't get away!"
Just then, the dark red crystal suddenly burst out with a blinding light, and the entire space began to shake violently.
A deep voice emanated from the crystal, carrying immense pressure.
"Nine Heavens Emperor...you have indeed come. Unfortunately, this will be your burial ground!"
"That same old nonsense again!"
Ye Lingtian smiled coldly, and the seven-colored sword light in his hand suddenly burst forth, pointing directly at the core of the crystal.
"Today, this connection point will be destroyed!"
The crystal suddenly trembled, releasing countless rays of black light that formed a massive net of malevolent energy that enveloped Ye Lingtian.
"Master, this thing actually dares to resist!"
Xiao Huo shouted, and heavenly fire instantly erupted, colliding head-on with the black light.
However, the black light did not completely dissipate under the scorching heat of the heavenly fire. Instead, it expanded rapidly as if it were alive, enveloping the entire space.
Ye Lingtian remained calm, and the sword in his hand suddenly slashed down. The seven-colored light surged towards the crystal like a giant wave, instantly tearing apart the net of evil energy.
"Your methods are nothing special!"
Ye Lingtian spoke indifferently as he approached the crystal step by step.
"The erosion by the power of the Void Abyss has come to an end!"
The crystal seemed to sense a great threat, letting out a piercing shriek. Its light surged instantly, and countless evil shadows poured out of the crystal, rushing towards Ye Lingtian.
"Master, let me do it this time!"
Little Fire shouted excitedly and jumped into the air. The Heavenly Fire Domain expanded instantly, engulfing all the evil shadows.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ye Lingtian raised his hand and condensed a seven-colored sword light, which pierced straight into the core of the crystal.
With a deafening explosion, the crystal shattered.
"Master, it's all done!"
The little fire fell from the sky, its tail swishing rapidly.
"Have we cleaned it up completely this time?"
"Just one node!"
Ye Lingtian said coldly, his gaze deep.
We must continue!
As the crystal shattered, the entire space began to slowly collapse, the runes inside the Heavenly Cloud Tower gradually lost their light, and the evil energy was completely eliminated.
Ye Lingtian sheathed his sword and turned to walk towards the exit of the passage.
"Master, is this a complete solution now?"
Little Fire jumped to his side, its tail swishing gently.
"With this node shattered, how can those demons still manage?"
"It only temporarily weakens Xu Yuan's power here!"
Ye Lingtian said calmly.
"Xu Yuan's plan involves far more than just one point; similar arrangements are likely spread throughout the Three Realms!"
"Ugh, these demons are such a nuisance! We've only dealt with one, and there's a whole bunch more to come!"
Little Fire pouted and wagged its tail.
"But don't worry, as long as I'm here, I can burn as many as I encounter!"
Ye Lingtian did not respond and walked steadily through the passage.
Soon, they walked out of the Tianyun Tower.
The disciples of the Jade Cloud Sect outside the tower had been waiting for a long time. When they saw Ye Lingtian and Xiao Huo return safely, they all showed their respect.
Yu Changqing stepped forward quickly and bowed with his hands clasped in greeting.
"Heavenly Emperor, what is the situation inside the tower?"
"The evil energy has been eliminated, and the node has been destroyed!"
Ye Lingtian said calmly.
"However, this is only part of the Void Abyss Plan. You must remain vigilant and not let your guard down!"
"I will obey the Heavenly Emperor's teachings!"
Yu Changqing asked in a solemn tone.
"Your Majesty, should we take any further action?"
"Continue to monitor the area around Tianyun Tower. If anything unusual is detected, send a message immediately!"
Ye Lingtian's tone was calm, yet carried an undeniable air of authority.
"Furthermore, strengthen the sect's defenses to prevent further infiltration by evil energy!"
"yes!"
Yu Changqing quickly agreed and watched Ye Lingtian walk away.
"Master, where do we go next?"
Little Fire jumped onto Ye Lingtian's shoulder, its tone filled with curiosity.
