"Did this group discover the secret of the gray mist? Was it their appearance that caused the gray mist to mutate?"
Sword Three formed a rough guess in his heart.
Otherwise, there was no way to explain why Mu Qing and the others had appeared before him almost completely unscathed.
Meanwhile, more than a dozen of them had entered, yet only three remained!
Even he himself was in a rather sorry state.
"Impossible. Not even the Holy Lord found the secret of this gray mist. They've only been here for one day—how could they possibly have uncovered its secret?"
Sword Three quickly dismissed the thought.
Seeing that Sword Three and the others made no move, the crowd spread out and surrounded the three of them.
"That guy got away," Curse Spirit suddenly spoke up.
She was referring to Ji Yang.
"It's fine. You placed a curse on him. As long as the heart is still here, it doesn't matter how far he runs. Deal with Sword Three first," Tian Yin and the others said, utterly unconcerned.
Curse Spirit nodded. She had only mentioned it to gauge the others' thoughts. Under normal circumstances, if Ji Yang had dared to run, she would have crushed the heart directly and used the curse's connection to kill him from afar.
Every gaze was fixed on Sword Three. As long as they obtained the sacred artifact statue, they could leave this Death Barrier!
As for Ji Yang, no one cared much.
The gray mist was deeply bizarre. Earlier, Jin Jiuyin had taken advantage of it to leave the group on his own.
With the gray mist concealing him, Ji Yang's escape had been effortless when everyone's attention was focused on Sword Three.
But the heart filled with Curse Power was still in Curse Spirit's hands.
