Xing Huis awareness was at the level of an Advanced Mage. Mo Fan even felt like Xing Hui was worse than a Hunter, who had to be on alert at all times. It had to be the result of indulging in secular desires inside the safe walls of the cities for too long. Mo Fan seriously wondered how someone like Xing Hui had survived until now on Tianshan Mountain!

The shadows slowly crept closer, like dusk chasing the last glimpse of sunlight away. Mo Fan was amazed by how slow Xing Huis response was. As a Super Mage, he should have realized that once darkness ruled the area, his life would be trapped in darkness forever too. He only realized he was surrounded when all that remained was the final glimpse of sunlight.

The shadows were like devils hiding under the ground, or deadly black seawater forcing Xing Hui to stand on a single spot, like he was stranded on an island.

The seawater kept rising. They would soak his legs and slowly crawl onto his body, finally clenching his throat coldly.

It was actually easier for Mo Fans army of darkness to infiltrate the space while it was under the influence of his Chaos Magic. When the remaining land of the living that Xing Hui stood on was invaded, the darkness immediately turned restless.

The frozen ground was replaced by a black swamp Xing Hui was sinking continuously into.

The guards of the Shadow Tribe rose from the swamp. They resembled knights of the ancient days under Mo Fans influence, each holding two jagged swords with hooks at the tip as they approached from all directions, inflicting injuries that festered rapidly on Xing Huis body.

Xing Hui only wished he could use all his limbs to cast his magic. He even wished he had Qin Yuers ability to cast spells without drawing any Star Orbits. Every time he killed a few guards of the Shadow Tribe, a new bunch of them would appear from the swamp. They just kept coming!

Seal of the Nine Laws!

Mo Fan had already completed the Lightning Star Palace on the mountain. The Lightning Tyrant displayed its imperious aura as huge lightning halberds fell from the sky, accompanied by a deep rumble, like the roars of dragons from the Heavens. Xing Huis head was buzzing badly before the lighting halberds even reached the ground.

Xing Hui was already worn out trying to deal with the endless guards of the Shadow Tribe. He cried out in agony when he felt like his body was being split into pieces after the lightning halberds landed on him.

Thats only the fourth, five more to go! Mo Fan said coldly.

Mo Fan never showed his enemies mercy. He had no intention to call off the remaining five halberds, even though Xing Hui was already at his last breath after the first four halberds.

The entrapping power of the Seal of the Nine Laws was even more terrifying when all the lightning halberds landed. Xing Hui naively tried to defend himself with magic Equipment, but he forgot the outstanding penetrating power of the Lightning Element. Any defensive Equipment was mere decoration before the Lightning Magic. Not only would it fail to reduce the pain, his flesh would shatter too!

Xing Hui turned into scorched ashes following a few blinding flashes. His cries of agony echoed in the area for a few seconds.

Mo Fan withdrew the imperious lightning and his army of darkness. He shook his head as Xing Huis remains scattered in the wind. This Xing Hui was seriously too weak. A relatively strong Advanced Mage might have beat him if they could stop him from using his Super Spell.

The Mu Clan had raised many useless pieces of trash like him!

As a matter of fact, there were a lot of Mages like him in the Magic Associations. They occupied important positions in society and claimed a lot of resources for themselves instead of giving them to those who needed them. They were also the first to run away when the cities were invaded by demon creatures!

A persons cultivation was not directly proportional to their strength; Mo Fan had known that for a long time. The unpredictable Chaos Element had played a crucial role in the fight. Xing Hui was lost right from the beginning of the fight. The avalanche he had prepared over a long time had also been useless. Otherwise, not only would Mo Fan have struggled to defend himself from the Super Ice Spell, he would not have had enough time to expand his shadow army and construct the Lightning Star Palace!

Did you take him out? Nanyu asked curiously when she saw Mo Fan leaving the distorted space.

Yeah, the guy was weaker than I thought, Mo Fan replied.

Its you whos too strong! Nanyu immediately refuted.

Youre right, hed be no match for me even if I hadnt reached the Super Level, Mo Fan agreed with a smile.

He looked into the chasm and saw Mu Ningxue and Qin Yuer still on the cliff down there.

I can only protect them with my magic. I cant pull them up, Nanyu told him.

Keep watch, Ill help them.

Mo Fan had no trouble saving the two inside the chasm with the Space and Chaos Elements, as long as no one was disturbing him. It was like pulling a rope, but he had to keep pulling with both hands.

Luckily, no one had found them again. Mo Fan let out a relieved sigh after pulling Qin Yuer and Mu Ningxue from the rift.

What now? Nanyu asked.

We have to destroy the Nine Lights Formation first. Otherwise, none of us can leave this place, Mo Fan said.

Sister Qin, do you know... Mu Ningxue turned around. She was going to ask about the Formation, but Qin Yuer was already gone.

Qin Yuer was behind her just a moment ago. Mu Ningxue could even hear her heavy breathing after being overwhelmed by fatigue, but there were only a few ice petals drifting around, with no sign of Qin Yuer.

Where...where did she go? Mo Fan opened his eyes wide. He did not see Qin Yuer no matter where he looked.

Shes at the hill over there, but shes really soft...I dont think she wants to be a burden to you two, Nanyu said.

Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue fell silent.

No faction or country dared to oppose the Heresy Judgment Court, Qin Yuer knew that better than anyone. Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue were already in deep trouble for saving her from the rift. She did not want them to become the Heresy Judgment Courts enemy!

Mo Fan, Ningxue, either way, we cant afford to offend the Heresy Judgment Court. Its not only about you, but Fanxue Mountain will be affected too! She did the right thing. You cant oppose the Heresy Judgment Court if you want a place in this world. You should keep that in mind if you are planning to destroy the Nine Lights Formation, Nanyu warned them sternly.
