Realm of the Night God

After making up his mind, Yang Haoran prepared to act according to the plan. However, before he could make a move, the restriction barrier where Feng Yaoshi was located suddenly started to violently shake, and then it exploded with a loud bang.

The shockwave from the barrier explosion swept across the area. Yang Haoran did not try to avoid it, but instead mobilized a portion of his Yin spirit power to protect his body.

The shockwave hit him, but under the protection of his Yin spirit power, he not only suffered no harm, but his body did not even move an inch. He remained suspended in the air, unaffected by the violent shockwave.

Yang Haoran was not concerned about the shockwave from the barrier explosion. What he was interested in was the situation inside the barrier.

Although Yang Haoran did not enter the barrier, he had seen the scene inside it when the barrier was previously revealed. However, now that the barrier had exploded, what he saw was completely different from what he had seen before.

There was no small house, no medicinal garden, no vegetable garden, and no young lady. It was not because these things had been destroyed in the battle, but because they had never existed there in the first place.

Even if a fierce battle had occurred, some remnants of the original objects would still have remained. But now, after the barrier exploded, Yang Haoran saw only a small lake. There was no small house, no medicinal garden, no vegetable garden, and no young lady - they simply did not exist. In other words, the scene he had seen outside the barrier before was just an illusion created by the barrier, and not the real situation.

What he was now seeing, this lake, was the true reality inside the barrier. The size of this lake was the same as the area covered by the barrier.

Strangely, the water of the entire lake was black, and a black smoke that was visible to the naked eye was rising from the surface of the lake.

However, this lake was fundamentally different from the black water pool. The black color of the black water pool was due to the dense Yin Qi within it, but Yang Haoran did not sense any Yin Qi in this lake, and the black smoke rising from the surface was not Yin Qi either.

Just as Yang Haoran was puzzled about the reason for the black color of the lake water and the nature of the black smoke, a piercing scream caught his attention.

In the lake, a woman was struggling violently in the water, and the one screaming in agony was this woman.

This woman was none other than the young girlfriend of the Black Talisman Master.

In addition to the woman struggling in the lake, there were three people above the lake: the masked Feng Yaoshi, the Black Talisman Master from the Fu Sect, and the Exorcist Elder who had just entered the barrier. Sample from My Virtual Library Empire—read more on M&VLEMPY&R.

Hearing the woman's agonizing scream, the Black Talisman Master's face changed drastically, and he quickly waved his hand, conjuring a Great Hand with his power to pull the woman out of the lake.

However, the woman's screams did not stop even after she was pulled out of the lake. She continued to struggle violently in the Great Hand, her screams even more agonizing than when she was in the water.

Under Yang Haoran's gaze, the woman's body began to rot and suppurate. Boils rapidly appeared on her once beautiful face, and as they grew to a certain size, they would burst, leaving thumb-sized holes all over her face. In the blink of an eye, her face was covered with these holes, from which pus, not fresh blood, oozed out.

"Ah! My dear... my dear, save... save me! Ah!!!"

The woman reached out to the Black Talisman Master, her eyes filled with the terror of death, as she screamed. Her once delicate and slender arms were also covered in boils, robbing them of their soft, boneless beauty and leaving only a sense of horror and disgust.

The Black Talisman Master had chosen to pull the woman out of the water in order to save her, but seeing her in this repulsive state, he frowned, his eyes filled with revulsion.

"My dear, it's too tiring to live like this, I don't want to see you continue to suffer like this, you should rest well, I love you."

As the words fell, the Black Talisman Master immediately released his hand, afraid that if he released it too slowly, it would also have some impact on him.

As he released his hand, the Great Hand that had materialized with the power also disappeared, and the woman's body fell from the sky and fell back into the lake below.

"No!!!"

A voice full of despair came from the woman's mouth, and before the sound had completely subsided, she had crashed back into the lake, splashing some water.

After falling back into the lake, a heart-wrenching scream came from the woman's mouth, and her already completely decaying body now had large chunks of flesh and skin peeling off, and after struggling for a few moments, she lost all signs of life, leaving a skeleton with flesh hanging on the lake surface.

This scene made Yang Haoran understand why the lake water was black, and also understand what the black smoke rising from the lake surface was.

The reason why the lake water was black was because the lake water contained a deadly poison. And the black smoke rising from the lake surface was the toxic fog formed by the deadly poison.

The woman's body became decayed and even turned into a skeleton was due to the effect of the deadly poison.

After the woman turned into a skeleton, the Black Talisman Master did not look at her again, his gaze now fell on Yang Haoran.

Not only the Black Talisman Master, but also the Exorcist Elder and Feng Yaoshi, the three of them all fixed their gaze on Yang Haoran, because at this moment the three of them all sensed the powerful Yin spirit power emanating from Yang Haoran.

The three of them were not in a good state at the moment, the Black Talisman Master and the Exorcist Elder were both injured, and the power fluctuations emanating from them were much weaker than before.

Compared to the two of them, Feng Yaoshi's physical condition was even worse. At the moment, Feng Yaoshi's clothes were tattered and disheveled, and the power fluctuations emanating from his body were very weak, indicating that he had already suffered serious injuries.

To fight against the three of them and even kill one of the weakest opponents is already quite an impressive feat, after all, whether it's the Black Talisman Master or the Exorcist, their strength is above Yang Haoran's, and they even came prepared.

The reason why Feng Yaoshi could kill one opponent and inflict serious injuries on the other two in such a situation, in addition to the barrier's great help, is naturally related to the various drugs he has refined.

The sudden explosion of the barrier just now must not have been caused by Feng Yaoshi, after all, this barrier is one of Feng Yaoshi's means of fighting against enemies, Feng Yaoshi would not do that.

The barrier must have been destroyed by the Black Talisman Master and the Exorcist, but in the process of destroying the barrier, the Black Talisman Master did not take care of his girlfriend, which led to her falling into the lake and eventually losing her life.

The three of them turned their gaze to Yang Haoran, and Yang Haoran also turned his gaze to the three of them. Compared to Yang Haoran's calm and composed demeanor, the three of them all had a look of shock on their faces.

Because the three of them never expected that the power fluctuations emanating from Yang Haoran would be so formidable, and they never expected that Yang Haoran would actually possess a soul weapon.

"Where's my brother?" The Exorcist Elder did not see his brother, and his face immediately turned ugly.

Just now, inside the barrier, due to the hazy light screen formed by the barrier, he did not know what was happening outside.

Likewise, the outside world did not know what was happening inside, unless they had a powerful eye technique or special means.

Now that the barrier has exploded, apart from seeing Yang Haoran, the Underworld Envoy, he did not see his own brother, which made him have a bad premonition in his heart.

"He's dead." Yang Haoran said with a smile on his face, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.

Hearing that his brother was dead, the Exorcist's face changed drastically, and there were bloodshot veins in his eyes as he looked at Yang Haoran.

"Did you do it?" The Exorcist Elder asked through gritted teeth.

Yang Haoran nodded and replied with a smile, "Yes, I did it."
