Why did you provoke her? Even Heaven itself is afraid of her.

Ling Yun and Qin Feng immediately stopped cultivating and picked up their weapons to fight the ghost face.

These ghostly faces appear illusory, but they possess powerful offensive capabilities. Each attack carries a chilling aura, slowing down their movements.

Ling Yun unleashed her fierce swordsmanship, shattering the ghost faces that lunged at her one by one, but the ghost faces kept surging in, gradually making her feel powerless.

Qin Feng used his spiritual power to cast various spells in an attempt to dispel the ghost faces, but the effect was not obvious.

"Sister Lingyun, these ghost faces seem to be formed from yin energy, and ordinary attacks are not very effective against them. We must find their weakness," Qin Feng shouted.

While fending off the attacks from the ghost faces, Ling Yun observed their movements.

She discovered that whenever the light flickered, they would become somewhat weak.

"Qin Feng, these ghost faces are afraid of light," Ling Yun said.

Qin Feng understood and immediately cast a spell, emitting a strong light.

The light enveloped the ghost faces, instantly obliterating them.

As the ghost face was eliminated, the black mist in the cave gradually dissipated, and the cultivation environment returned to peace.

Ling Yun and Qin Feng breathed a sigh of relief and continued their cultivation.

In the days that followed, they overcame various difficulties in the cultivation process and gradually mastered the essence of the Xuanming Imperishable Skill.

Their aura was also subtly changing, becoming increasingly cold and sinister, merging with the aura of the Pluto universe.

Meanwhile, Xiao Bo was not idle in the Neptune universe either.

He devoted himself wholeheartedly to repairing the defense system and researching the secret passages set up by the Black Hole Saint.

After some effort, he finally discovered some clues.

It turns out that when the energy core malfunctioned, the Black Hole Saint King used a special energy fluctuation to interfere with Neptune's universe defense system, thus successfully setting up a secret passage.

Xiao Bo immediately wrote down this discovery, intending to inform Ling Yun and the others when they met up.

He then accelerated the repair of the defense system, and after countless attempts and adjustments, he finally succeeded in restoring the defense system to its original state.

At this time, 130 years had passed since Ling Yun and Qin Feng entered the Pluto universe.

During this period, their Xuanming Undying Technique had been cultivated to a very high level.

They felt as if their bodies were encased in a layer of cold armor, granting them powerful defense and attack capabilities.

"Sister Lingyun, I feel we've almost finished our cultivation," Qin Feng said.

Ling Yun nodded. "Yes, it's time to get out. We also need to find a way to bypass the black hole universe and head to the Dark Abyss as soon as possible."

They left the Xuanming Land and found Situ Qingming.

"Brother Situ, thank you for your help. We have successfully cultivated the Xuanming Undying Technique," Ling Yun said gratefully.

“Congratulations to you both. However, bypassing the Black Hole Universe will not be easy. The Black Hole Saint King has deployed numerous informants and defensive facilities around the Black Hole Universe. If you are not careful, he will discover you,” Situ Qingming warned.

"We are prepared. No matter what difficulties we encounter, we will not back down," Ling Yun said firmly.

Looking at Ling Yun's determined eyes, Situ Qingming couldn't help but feel a surge of admiration.

"In that case, I will escort you on your way. I have a specially made interstellar spaceship in my Pluto universe that can conceal its presence and, to some extent, avoid the Black Hole Saint King's eyes and ears. I hope it can lend you a hand."

"Thank you so much, Brother Situ." Ling Yun and Qin Feng were overjoyed.

Led by Situ Qingming, they arrived in front of a huge interstellar spaceship.

The spaceship was entirely black, with mysterious runes shimmering on its surface, as if it had merged with the darkness.

"This spaceship is called the Shadow, and it is the result of many years of my hard work. It is not only extremely fast, but also has powerful defense and stealth capabilities. You only need to follow this operating guide to operate it and you can unleash its full potential."

As Situ Qingming spoke, he handed Ling Yun a thick manual.

Ling Yun took the manual and looked at it carefully. "Thank you, Brother Situ. We will definitely drive carefully."

"Take care on your journey. I hope you can successfully retrieve the Cosmic Essence Treasure and save the universe," Situ Qingming said.

Ling Yun and Qin Feng boarded the Shadow, started the spaceship, and slowly left the Pluto universe.

Following the pre-planned route, they carefully headed towards the direction of the black hole universe.

As they approached the black hole universe, Ling Yun and Qin Feng activated the Shadow's stealth function, and the spaceship's presence vanished instantly.

They stared nervously ahead, fearing they might be discovered by the Black Hole Saint King's spies.

However, just as they were about to bypass the black hole universe, a group of black spacecraft suddenly appeared in front of them.

These triangular aircraft, emitting an eerie glow, flew rapidly toward them.

"Oh no, it's the Black Hole Saint Lord's patrol team," Qin Feng said nervously.

Ling Yun immediately maneuvered the Shadow to change course, attempting to evade the patrol team.

But the patrol seemed to have sensed something, quickly changed direction, and chased after them.

"It seems they've discovered us. What should we do, Sister Lingyun?" Qin Feng asked anxiously.

Ling Yun gritted his teeth. "We can't let them discover our tracks. Speed ​​up and shake them off!"

She increased the power of the Shadow, and the spaceship sped through interstellar space like a black lightning bolt.

The patrol team kept in hot pursuit, and the distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer.

Just as the patrol was about to catch up with the Shadow, Ling Yun suddenly discovered a huge interstellar vortex ahead.

This vortex is composed of powerful gravity and energy storms, and anything that gets too close will be swallowed up.

"Sister Lingyun, there's an interstellar vortex ahead, we can't go any further!" Qin Feng exclaimed.

Looking at the patrol team hot on their heels and then at the dangerous interstellar vortex ahead, Ling Yun quickly made a decision: "Let's rush into the interstellar vortex and use its power to get rid of them!"

"But……"

Qin Feng wanted to say something more, but seeing Ling Yun's determined look, he swallowed his words.

Ling Yun piloted the Shadow and charged towards the interstellar vortex.

Just as it approached the vortex, a powerful gravitational force sucked the Shadow into it.

The spaceship was violently shaking in the vortex, and was in danger of being torn apart at any moment.

Ling Yun and Qin Feng were trying their best to control the spaceship, attempting to find a safe way out of the vortex.

They constantly adjusted the ship's direction and speed to avoid the energy storms and meteorite impacts within the vortex.

However, the Black Hole Saint King's patrol hesitated when they reached the edge of the interstellar vortex.

They knew the dangers of the interstellar vortex and dared not enter it lightly.

But unwilling to let Ling Yun and Qin Feng escape like this, they hovered at the edge of the whirlpool, trying to wait for an opportunity.
