"thump--"
With a muffled thud, Xu Hong's body crashed heavily to the ground, already lifeless.
We really underestimated you.
Xu Han slowly descended and stood quietly not far in front of Tang Yuan.
He stared intently at the man lying opposite him, his eyes no longer showing the arrogance they once held.
"What, old man, are you feeling sorry for your companion?"
"No."
Xu Han shook his head.
"Being killed by a dying person can only be blamed on his lack of skill."
"Of course, I didn't expect you to be able to unleash that kind of power now."
"But I survived, while you are going to die."
Having said this, Xu Han stopped speaking, and black energy gradually gathered on his palm.
"It's alright if you don't want to reveal the young sect leader's whereabouts; I also know the art of soul searching."
After saying that, he flashed and instantly appeared in front of Tang Yuan, unleashing a powerful blow that slammed heavily towards the top of Tang Yuan's head.
Faced with this overwhelming attack, Tang Yuan had no power to resist.
He slowly closed his eyes, his expression filled with resentment.
"Master... I am about to die in this foreign land."
"Tang Yuan can no longer serve the Prisoner Wind Hall in this lifetime..."
Just as his mind was about to race through his thoughts, the soil beneath him suddenly made a series of sounds.
"Um?"
Xu Han's expression suddenly froze, and the movement of his hands also stopped.
"wrong!"
Sensing the energy fluctuations emanating from beneath the ground, Xu Han finally realized something was wrong.
The next moment, countless thick vines burst forth from the ground like dragons emerging from the sea.
These vines are several meters thick and covered with sharp barbs.
They swept towards Xu Han with overwhelming force and lightning speed.
"when?"
A hint of surprise flashed in Xu Han's eyes; his spiritual sense had not detected the other party's presence just now.
However, he quickly regained his composure.
"I see, so they simulated plants underground. That's interesting."
He snorted coldly, his hands quickly forming a hand seal, and he chanted incantations.
In an instant, a black shield appeared out of thin air in front of him.
As if possessing sentience, the vines quickly spread out, surrounding the opponent from all sides.
Some of the vines coiled around Xu Han's legs like giant pythons, trying to drag him to the ground.
The other part rose high, like a sharp sword stabbing towards his head and upper body.
Xu Han flashed, weaving through the vines' attacks like a ghost.
"Black Moon - Wind of Annihilation!"
Black spiritual energy surged, and a gale danced like a sharp blade, transforming into a series of fierce sword shadows that severed the approaching vines.
But the vines seemed endless; as soon as one batch was cut off, another batch would quickly spring up.
At the same time, a thick vine shot out from the ground like lightning and precisely wrapped around Tang Yuan's body.
Before Xu Han could react, the vines quickly carried Tang Yuan underground.
He felt only darkness before his eyes, his body being dragged along by vines at high speed, with the whistling wind and the sound of mud rubbing against the ground all around him.
Xu Han noticed the unusual activity and was startled. He shouted angrily.
"Hmph, you cowardly rats, do you really think my Black Moon Sect is a pushover?!"
His spiritual power surged forth like a burst dam, and in an instant, the sky seemed to be shrouded by a huge black curtain.
In this endless darkness, a huge black moon slowly emerged.
The black moon was surrounded by eerie black ripples, which froze the air wherever they went, making a hissing sound.
"You scoundrels, don't run! Black Moon Falls!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Black Moon, like a black meteorite falling from the sky, crashed heavily to the ground with earth-shattering power.
With a deafening roar, a powerful shockwave spread rapidly outwards from the point where the Black Moon fell, causing the entire Crimson Crystal Forest to tremble.
Wherever the shockwave passed, the vines were instantly pulverized like fragile pieces of paper.
Countless tiny fragments of vines danced in the air like snowflakes, only to be quickly swallowed up by the heat wave from the explosion.
A huge crater appeared on the ground, surrounded by spiderweb-like cracks.
As the aftershocks of the explosion subsided, a pungent, burnt smell filled the Crimson Crystal Forest.
Xu Han stood at the edge of the deep pit, his clothes fluttering in the wind.
He stared at the wrecked ground and muttered to himself.
"So they still managed to escape..."
At this moment, as if sensing something, he took out a communication jade talisman from his storage bag.
"Xu Han, have you captured that thief?"
"metropolitan!"
Upon hearing this voice, Xu Han's body trembled involuntarily.
"Um?!"
The Black Moon Sect Master, Xu Chuang, seemed to have sensed something.
"You didn't let that thief escape, did you? Why can't I contact Xu Hong? What is he doing?"
"Sect Master...it's like this..."
…… ……
Meanwhile, on the outskirts of the Crimson Crystal Forest.
"What was that sound just now? Did you hear it?"
Dai Yun asked in confusion.
"Yes, what is that?"
Dai Ting also looked up and around.
"Yun Si Ning!"
Hua Lu changed her expression and transmitted her voice.
"I know."
Yun Si Ning stared blankly in a distant direction, her lips trembling slightly.
"What's wrong? What's with that expression?"
"Flower Dew... I sense a familiar scent."
