"Um?"
Xu Chuang frowned slightly as he flew, his high-speed movement abruptly halting, hovering in mid-air.
"Sect Master, what's wrong?"
At this moment, the other five black-robed elders also came over, while Xu Han stood at the back.
"Something's not right."
Xu Chuang said in a deep voice.
He looked around and released his spiritual sense, scanning every blade of grass and tree within a radius of dozens of miles.
After a long while, Xu Chuang's brows furrowed deeper and deeper. He found nothing, but he had an unusual sense of unease.
Upon seeing this, Xu Han seemed to remember something, and his pupils contracted slightly.
"Oh no, it's underground!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the ground below them shattered with a deafening roar.
Countless vines sprouted wildly from the ground, and soil flew out like a torrential rain.
As soon as the vines emerged from the ground, they attacked the people suspended above with a frenzied ferocity.
The vines twisted and thrashed wildly in the air, like angry dragons.
"Sect Master, be careful!"
Xu Han's expression changed drastically, and he roared.
He had already been harmed by these vines once before, and seeing this scene again made his expression turn ugly.
"It's just a trivial skill."
Xu Chuang gave a light hum, his expression not changing much, but rather showing a slight smile.
"You finally couldn't hold back and made your move, that's a good thing."
In an instant, a black moon appeared out of thin air in his palm.
Xu Chuang coldly glanced at the surging vines, a disdainful sneer curling at the corner of his mouth.
He gave a low shout.
"Destroy!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the black moon instantly transformed into a black lightning bolt, rushing towards the vines like a black dragon.
The moment the black moon collided with the vines, a powerful energy surge erupted.
The black light swept out like a surging tide, blasting the vines to shreds wherever it went, turning them into black fragments that drifted into the air.
In the blink of an eye, the surging onslaught of vines was completely neutralized.
"What's this?!"
Underground, Hua Yuncang, who had noticed this scene, became more solemn than ever before.
"Oh no, we've really messed up this time."
"You scoundrel, get out here and face me!"
Xu Chuang coldly flicked his sleeve, slowly raised his right hand, palm up, fingers gently outstretched.
The next moment, a dense, inky black energy began to gather wildly in his palm.
It seemed to have a life of its own, constantly rolling and twisting, emitting eerie buzzing sounds.
"Black Moon - Netherworld!"
The dark spiritual energy instantly transformed into a massive black pillar of light, crashing down into the ground like a sharp blade falling from the sky.
Wherever the black beam of light passed, space was distorted beyond recognition, and the surrounding air was instantly sucked away, creating vacuum zones.
The moment the beam of light touched the ground, it unleashed a deafening roar.
Immediately afterwards, a powerful shockwave spread wildly outwards from the point of impact.
"not good."
Underground, Hua Yuncang hadn't expected the other party's reaction to be so fierce.
Without a second thought, he plunged deeper into the cave.
"You mere mid-stage Dragon Marrow Realm cultivator dares to kidnap my sect master's son? Let's see how many lives you have!"
Xu Chuang said coldly.
After the attack dissipated, the ground in this area collapsed for a full fifty meters, but no one could see the other party's whereabouts.
"Um?"
As the group wondered what was happening, even more vines surged out from another direction like a tide.
Subsequently, more and more vines and giant trees sprouted wildly from different directions, seemingly endless.
Upon seeing this, Xu Chuang's expression turned completely somber.
"Sect Master, this guy is the same person I encountered before. He's very troublesome."
At this moment, Xu Han spoke up.
"His appearance at this time must be to buy time and interfere with our judgment."
"You go and rescue the young sect leader first; I'll handle this man!"
Xu Chuang glanced at him upon hearing this, pondered for a moment, and then nodded.
"Alright, I'll give you a chance to redeem yourself."
After saying this, he and the five elders of the Black Moon Sect flashed away and sped off into the distance amidst the attacks of the Thunder Ghost.
"broken."
Upon realizing that they were heading in the same direction as An Zhen and the others, Hua Yuncang's expression changed drastically.
We must not let them get through!
His hands moved rapidly, forming hand seals, and he pushed his technique to its limit.
Giant trees rose from the ground in an instant, soaring straight into the sky.
"Black Moon - Long Wind Sweep"
Suddenly, a powerful aura of destruction swept in from the side, and a dark, raging wind instantly enveloped the entire sky.
When black and cyan met, a deafening roar erupted, and wood chips fell like rain.
Xu Han stood in the very center of the raging wind, his gaze fixed resolutely on the ground below.
“I will not let you take another step forward unless you step over my dead body.”
The ground tore open, and from among the layers of vines, the white-haired Hua Yuncang stepped out.
"You've finally shown yourself, you cowardly rat hiding your head and tail."
Hua Yuncang remained silent, frantically forming hand seals as streams of spiritual energy gathered within his body.
"Since you refuse to step aside, then we'll just have to put on a show for now."
