Entering Nine Yang Mountain

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!

The moment Black Fish's consciousness vanished, the barrier formed by the Asura Killing Qi vanished as well, and killing qi flooded toward Nie Yun like a raging tide.

"Hmm?"

Without the slightest hesitation—before he had even realized it himself—he skipped past that level
