I walk sideways in the game world

A strange energy surged from Ren Xiaoyao's broken sword, like a dormant dragon awakening, emitting an ancient and powerful aura. This aura rapidly spread, illuminating the previously dim sky with a blood-red glow. The wind and clouds shifted, and sand and rocks flew. The black-robed figure's expression suddenly changed, clearly unprepared for this sudden change.

"What...what kind of power is this?!" The man in black robe took a half step back in horror, and for the first time, a look of fear appeared in his eyes.

Ren Xiaoyao seemed to be completely immersed in a wonderful state. He felt a powerful force surging into his body, and his originally exhausted true energy was instantly replenished, even more refined and powerful than before.

The broken sword in his hand hummed, as if responding to his will. In the split second between life and death, a sudden inspiration struck him, and a move recorded in an ancient secret book he had accidentally acquired emerged in his mind.

"Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Art!" Ren Xiaoyao roared, and the broken sword in his hand seemed to turn into a bolt of lightning, carrying the power to destroy the world, and pierced straight into the chest of the man in black robe.

The man in black robe felt the terrifying power of this attack and dared not be arrogant anymore. He quickly formed seals with his hands, and a black light curtain appeared in front of him, trying to block this fatal blow.

"boom!"

A deafening roar erupted, and the entire valley seemed to tremble. The black curtain of light was instantly torn apart, and the broken sword, undeterred, fiercely pierced the black-robed man's shoulder.

The black-robed man groaned, staggered back, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. He looked at Ren Xiaoyao in disbelief, his eyes filled with shock and anger.

"You actually..." The black-robed man was about to speak, but his expression suddenly changed, and he turned his head sharply to look in the distance...

"Not good!" Xia Lin exclaimed, her figure flashed, and she ran straight towards Ren Xiaoyao...

Xia Lin and Lady Lin cooperated seamlessly. One of them had a light figure and agile moves, like a dancing butterfly, attracting the attention of the man in black robe; the other had sharp sword skills and a tide of attack, forcing the man in black robe to retreat again and again, making it difficult for him to free his hands to deal with Ren Xiaoyao.

"Xiaoyao, seize the opportunity!" Lady Lin shouted delicately, and the long sword in her hand shot out like a venomous snake, aiming straight at the black-robed man's face. The black-robed man had to distract himself to defend himself, but at this moment, Xia Lin seized the opportunity, and a white light shot out from her slender jade fingers, hitting the acupuncture point on the black-robed man's back.

The black-robed man paused, and Ren Xiaoyao seized this fleeting opportunity and swung the broken sword in his hand again. This time, he poured all the true energy in his body into it, and the sword emitted a dazzling golden light, as if it was going to split the dark sky in half.

"Break!" Ren Xiaoyao roared angrily, and the broken sword, with the force of thunder, slashed fiercely on the black-robed man.

"Ah!" The black-robed figure let out a shrill scream. His protective Qi was like paper before this devastating blow, instantly ripped apart. He was completely blown away by the powerful sword energy and fell heavily to the ground more than ten feet away, his life or death unknown.

Ren Xiaoyao didn't let his guard down. He fought back the weakness from his excessive Qi depletion and walked towards the black-robed man lying on the ground. Xia Lin and Lady Lin followed closely behind him, vigilantly observing the surroundings.

"Is he...he dead?" Charlene asked softly, with a hint of disbelief and fear in her tone.

Ren Xiaoyao didn't answer. He slowly walked over to the black-robed man and used the tip of his sword to pry open his mask. The face of a strange middle-aged man was revealed, his face full of pain and unwillingness, his eyes wide open, and he had lost all life.

After confirming that the black-robed man was dead, Ren Xiaoyao finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the broken sword in his hand fell to the ground with a clang. At this moment, something strange happened. The black-robed man, who had been dead for a long time, suddenly showed a strange smile at the corner of his mouth.

"Haha, do you think... this is the end?"

Before the black-robed man finished speaking, the ring in his hand suddenly burst into a dazzling red light. The red light quickly spread, enveloping Ren Xiaoyao, Xia Lin, and Lady Lin. The three of them felt their vision go black before their eyes, and then they lost consciousness.

After an unknown amount of time, Ren Xiaoyao slowly awoke, finding himself in an unfamiliar environment. Looking around, he saw Xia Lin and Lady Lin unconscious beside him. He hurried forward to check on them, finding they were only temporarily unconscious and not seriously injured, and he felt relieved.

"Xiaoyao, what happened? Where is that man in black robe?" Xia Lin woke up slowly and asked hurriedly after seeing Ren Xiaoyao.

"I don't know either." Ren Xiaoyao shook his head. "I just remember being surrounded by a red light, and then I don't know anything."

"It seems that the man in black robes has a backup plan." Lady Lin also woke up. "We must leave here as soon as possible, find the force behind him, and find out the truth."

The three of them did not dare to neglect and immediately stood up, preparing to leave this strange place. At this moment, a loud noise came from the distance.

"Look! It's Hero Ren!"

"Hero Ren! I'm so glad you're okay!"

Ren Xiaoyao looked in the direction of the voice and saw Sect Leader Ouyang and a group of martial artists rushing towards them, their faces full of excitement and admiration.

"Master Ouyang, why are you here?" Ren Xiaoyao was a little confused.

"Master Ren, your deeds have spread throughout the martial arts world!" Sect Leader Ouyang said excitedly. "You bravely fought against the mysterious organization alone, ultimately killing its leader and saving the martial arts world from danger. You are a hero to us all!"

It turned out that at the moment Ren Xiaoyao and the other two were engulfed by the red light, Sect Leader Ouyang and his men arrived at the scene. They witnessed the black-robed man being killed and saw the strange red light. Although they didn't know what happened, they knew that Ren Xiaoyao had once again saved the martial arts world.

Ren Xiaoyao's heroic deeds quickly spread throughout the martial arts world, and he became a hero admired by everyone. All major sects expressed their willingness to cooperate with Ren Xiaoyao to jointly maintain peace in the martial arts world.

Amidst the crowd's cheers, Ren Xiaoyao and Xia Lin embarked on a new journey. Before leaving, Lady Lin handed a jade pendant to Ren Xiaoyao, "Xiaoyao, I know you still have many questions in your heart. This jade pendant may help you find the answers. Take care!"

Ren Xiaoyao solemnly took the jade pendant. He knew that their adventure had just begun...
