When He Dazhi pointed the pen-shaped magic treasure in his hand at the valley, a whirl of wind dropped from the tip. By the time it reached the bottom, a tornado had already taken shape. As it spun on, everything in the valley was swept high into the air and torn to pieces inside the gale.
Seeing the great swathes of monsters in the valley so easily exterminated by Wu Dayi and He Dazhi working together, smiles appeared on Tian Buyi and the others' faces. So these monsters were not as invincible as the rumors made them out to be. Killing them was still quite simple after all!
But before they had been pleased for long, He Dazhi was the first to sense something wrong and hurriedly withdrew his brush, cutting off the spiritual power linked to the tornado.
The others also noticed the abnormality one after another. The tornado was visibly turning black. After those monsters were torn to pieces, strands of black qi were quickly sucked into the tornado, and before long, the originally clear whirlwind had been dyed black.
"That's... malicious qi!" Looking at the tornado in the valley as it gradually darkened, Tian Buyi's face showed wariness.
"So this is the most troublesome thing about these monsters. That malicious qi absolutely must not be touched, or else you'll become just like these monsters," He Dazhi warned.
When the tornado disappeared, a layer of black mist hung in midair over the valley. Tian Buyi led his disciples carefully around it and headed deeper into the valley.
As they went farther in, they gradually saw bloodstains, scraps of clothing, and bits of minced flesh.
"Be careful, all of you. Up ahead is where Myriad Poison Sect and the monsters were fighting," Tian Buyi warned the disciples behind him.
