Considering the altitude of Cuifeng Mountain and the air humidity, there shouldn't be such thick fog.

Fortunately, the four of them are not mediocre. Even in an environment where visibility is less than ten meters, they can still ensure that they are walking on flat ground.

However, there is a saying that when something goes wrong there must be something wrong. Faced with such a situation, everyone's nerves could not help but become tense.

"You said that the ghost plague in Cuifeng Mountain caused the deaths of thousands of people, so why is Biyun Village safe and sound? Could it be that this rookie's work is the real reason?"

"Miss Luo is joking."

Such venomous words naturally came from Lori's mouth. As for the rookie she mentioned, Yun Ting felt very angry.

In such a boring environment, Luo Li said this with the original intention of easing the atmosphere. It would naturally be better if Zhang San could speak up.

It has to be said that although everyone doesn't say it, they are very grateful in their hearts for having such a gentleman in charge.

However, Zhang San, who is meticulous about his work, does not have the leisure time like them. Being in an unfamiliar environment, talking will lower his vigilance. Therefore, except for the necessary intelligence gathering and tactical command, Zhang San almost never speaks during the mission.

In order to ease Luo Li's embarrassment and to quell the conflicts within the team, under this circumstance, Xie Lingyun, who understands the overall situation, naturally had to take on the responsibility.

"Even rabbits don't eat grass near their burrows. Any spirit that has achieved success in cultivation will naturally have good intelligence. If it really wanted to cause harm to the surroundings, wouldn't it be exposed as soon as it moved?

"You should know that there is a Qionghua Temple in Yangzhou Prefecture. You don't really think that the master of the Shenxiao Sect is a vegetarian, right? If he really couldn't spare any effort, the old man would have struck down with a thunder talisman long ago. How could we have a chance to take action?"

"Oh, so that's how it is. It turns out that monsters are so smart. I have to remember this for the sake of educating future rookies, hehe~"

Because of the impact of the three words "Cthulhu" before, as if to test Zhang San's depth, Xie Lingyun always seemed vague when speaking. If the other party really had an extraordinary inheritance, he would naturally know who the high priest of Qionghua Temple she was talking about.

However, what made her curious was that after hearing Xie Lingyun's words, Zhang San's expression did not show the slightest change, as if what she said had nothing to do with him.

No, it seems a little bit.

The moment she saw Zhang San holding the knife in his right hand, and when Xie Lingyun was about to shout "be alert", a flash of lightning exploded in front of her.

At the same time, a tragic scream resounded through the clouds.

“Ah~”

Judging from the level of swordsmanship, the Breathing of Thunder is not even as good as Jing Ye Si's standard swordsmanship, let alone the Xie family swordsmanship that is famous in Dajin.

But even so, with more than twenty years of innate Qi and the blessing of the three levels of reverse life, Zhang San's casual swing of the sword had the power to split mountains and expand the sea.

Unlike ordinary people, due to deliberate training, Xie Lingyun would not blink even when facing the flashing of swords and sabers. It was also for this reason that she could see Zhang San's sword clearly.

It was like a bolt of lightning, and as the sword light whistled past, the fog in the sky instantly rolled back. Looking from the air, it seemed as if a tornado was rising from the ground. Under the effect of the sword light, everyone's vision became much clearer.

It’s a pity that compared with the endless fog that permeates the mountains, no matter how hot Zhang San’s sword light is, it can only be powerful for a while.

As time passed, the space around everyone was once again filled with fog, and that imperceptible feeling of powerlessness once again filled Zhang San's heart.

There is no doubt that even without investigating, Zhang San can confirm the other party's death. Blood will be drawn when the thunder sword is unsheathed, not to mention the blessing of his current cultivation level.

However, judging from the touch of the knife just now, the opponent's muscle fibers were a little too hard, and the movement speed was also incredibly fast. If Zhang San had not made a breakthrough before this, he might not have been able to cut it.

And more importantly, as if sensing the threat posed by them, the density of the fog around them rose to another level. Now, Zhang San's perception range of the transparent world was less than 20 meters.

At this distance, it's okay to deal with simple physical attacks, but if you face large-scale magical attacks, you'll be at a loss.

Sure enough, I have to deal with this annoying fog first?

But with this kind of viscosity, the Tianpeng Curse... probably won't be able to blow it away.

Just when Zhang San was helpless, perhaps because he was provoked by the monster's sneak attack, in order to clear his name and also to restore the reputation of the Xie family, Xie Lingyun's face under the mask also put away the casualness.

In fact, if it weren't for the funny mask, her murderous face would probably scare away the heroes.

But this is just the feeling of other people. For Zhang San, he may have to thank the monsters hidden in the fog. If they had not angered Xie Lingyun, he might not have been able to see the true appearance of Xie family sword techniques in his life.

What, didn’t Xie Lingyun chop a sword in Huangcun? Please, if that is also considered a sword technique, it is too much to underestimate the Xie family! "The earth is broken and the sky is shocked, and the heaven and the earth are burned. I serve this sword with my body, and I only hope that the sword can turn the clouds and the sea upside down!"

Unlike the fast swordsmanship pursued by other swordsmen, Xie Lingyun's sword-drawing action was extremely slow. If it were not for the inappropriate timing, Zhang San even believed that an eighty-year-old old lady was faster than her.

It was a very slow and graceful movement. If I had to make a metaphor, it was as natural as the wind.

But when the wind blows, who can resist it? And who knows where the wind comes from? The sword has slowly, slowly stabbed out.

It pierced out from the most incredible part, and when it pierced out, there was suddenly the most incredible change.

Finally, as if witnessing the exhaustion of time, or as if it was just a blink of an eye, when Xie Lingyun pulled out the ordinary eight-sided Han sword, the surrounding time and space seemed to solidify, and a mysterious feeling once again surged into Zhang San's heart.

There is no doubt that this sword of hers was a blow that transcended cause and effect, but unlike the ordinary blow that transcended cause and effect, the Xie family's swordsmanship gave people a sense of déjà vu of making their wishes come true.

If you want to kill someone with one sword, this sword will make the person's head fall to the ground; if you want to split the sky with one sword, this sword will make the sky weep.

This is the Great Aspiration Sword Technique, this is the Xie family of Green Water Lake. As long as the willpower is sufficient, let alone a small mist monster, even a mortal immortal will need to temporarily avoid the edge.

"--open!!!"

Golden light broke through the dawn, clouds rose and rolled, and with a long and stirring chant of sword energy, the fog that had been lingering in Cuifeng Mountain for countless years finally dissipated, and the mountain that was originally surrounded finally revealed its true appearance in front of everyone.
