"boom"
Suddenly, a deafening roar erupted, like a thunderclap from the heavens!
This earth-shattering roar suddenly rang out, as if it were about to tear the entire world apart.
In that instant, the small defensive array shattered into countless fragments, just like fragile glass.
These fragments scattered and flew in all directions with sharp force.
Some crashed into the surrounding rocks, kicking up a cloud of gravel and dust.
Some streaked across the void, leaving behind brief but dazzling trails of light.
Ling Xueyan, Qing Jie, and Jin Xiaoman were all startled and trembled. Like frightened rabbits, they instinctively turned around to look.
In an instant, a figure strolled out unhurriedly from the swirling dust.
Upon closer inspection, the figure was none other than Qin Feng!
At this moment, Qin Feng did not exude even the slightest aura that a cultivator should have.
He looked like an ordinary mortal, nothing special.
However, everyone present knew very well that Qin Feng could not possibly be an ordinary mortal.
It should be noted that Qin Feng has already successfully broken through to the half-step Heavenly Dao Realm!
The reason he appears ordinary right now is simply because he has completely concealed his vast and powerful aura.
Ling Xueyan looked suspicious, her beautiful eyes scanning Qin Feng up and down, trying to see through the man in front of her.
No matter how hard she tried to observe, she could never see through Qin Feng's unfathomable cultivation level.
This feeling stirred a strange unease within Ling Xueyan.
At the same time, Qing Jie frowned slightly, his gaze fixed on Qin Feng, and the fear in his eyes was clearly visible.
Qin Feng was only at the late stage of the Hongmeng Saint Emperor realm, yet Qing Jie already feared him greatly.
Now that Qin Feng has broken through to the same half-step Heavenly Dao Realm as him, he is undoubtedly more wary and vigilant.
Qin Feng's lips curled up slightly, and he gave Ling Xueyan a warm smile, as gentle as a spring breeze.
Immediately afterwards, his sharp, hawk-like eyes slowly swept across the surroundings.
In an instant, he could see everything around him, and even the demons hiding in the shadows had nowhere to hide.
Just as Qin Feng was preparing to show off his skills and annihilate these demons in one fell swoop, something unexpected happened.
The monsters that had been eyeing them menacingly suddenly turned and fled without warning, as if they had received some mysterious command.
Their movements were as swift as a sudden storm, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Seeing this, Qin Feng was slightly taken aback.
These monsters seem to be quite intelligent, able to so keenly perceive my strength and wisely choose to retreat.
Thinking of this, Qin Feng helplessly curled his lip and muttered to himself, "At least you guys have some sense, knowing that I'm not someone to mess with. Otherwise, today would have been a good opportunity to test just how strong I am after my breakthrough."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Feng turned his head and looked at Jin Xiaoman not far away, asking with concern, "How are your injuries? Do you need my help?"
Hearing Qin Feng's question, Jin Xiaoman shook her head. "No need to trouble yourself! I've already absorbed enough divine source."
"Although I still have broken bones, I should be fine with my own recovery ability."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "The most urgent thing now is to leave this place of trouble as soon as possible, lest things get worse and something else goes wrong."
After saying that, Jin Xiaoman took a step forward without hesitation and walked straight ahead.
Seeing this, Qin Feng and the other two did not hesitate at all and followed Jin Xiaoman's steps.
...
Qin Feng and his group walked through the misty forest, remaining vigilant and alert to any potential dangers.
After a difficult trek, the fog ahead finally began to thin, and sunlight filtered through the leaves, illuminating the path ahead.
As they took that final step, a vast and mysterious land unfolded before them.
But this place is the true demon realm!
The environment in the game can only be described as "horrible".
The sky was so gloomy it seemed it could press down at any moment, with lightning flashing intermittently amidst the rolling dark clouds.
The ground was uneven, riddled with sharp rocks and bottomless cracks.
The surrounding area was filled with pure demonic energy, which twisted and swirled in the air as if it were alive, giving people a sinister and terrifying feeling.
Moreover, the air was filled with a nauseating stench, a smell that was like a mixture of the stench emanating from countless rotting corpses.
This odor is pervasive; even covering your mouth and nose doesn't completely prevent it from entering your nasal cavity.
Faced with such a harsh environment, Qin Feng and the others couldn't help but frown.
It should be noted that this kind of environment is extremely unfavorable for cultivators.
The cultivation techniques practiced by immortal cultivators mostly rely on the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, but here, the dense demonic energy will interfere with and erode the divine power within their bodies.
If one is not careful, one may go astray and even lose one's life.
Qin Feng immediately mobilized his divine power to condense a shield to protect himself.
The shield, like a transparent crystal, emitted a faint and soft light, clinging tightly to his skin as if it had become a part of his body.
Seeing this, Ling Xueyan, Qing Jie, and Jin Xiaoman followed Qin Feng's example and used their divine power to condense shields on their bodies.
For a moment, a thin layer of light enveloped the four of them, shimmering with various colors, temporarily resisting the ever-encroaching demonic energy.
After taking precautions, they breathed a slight sigh of relief and continued to move forward cautiously.
However, they hadn't gone far when a melodious flute tune suddenly reached their ears.
The flute's clear, melodious, and ethereal sound, like heavenly music, seemed particularly out of place in this eerie and demonic region, completely out of sync with its surroundings.
Qin Feng and his group instinctively looked in the direction from which the sound came.
Not far away, there was a high platform where a woman in a white dress stood quietly.
She had a graceful figure, long flowing hair, and held a jade flute in her hand, playing it softly.
Surprisingly, no demonic energy dared to approach her within a radius of several feet, as if the demonic energy had a deep fear of her.
"This is not a place for you. Leave now!" The woman put down her jade flute, glanced at Qin Feng and the others, and said coldly as she parted her lips.
Although her voice was cool and clear, it carried an undeniable authority.
