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

Chapter 298 A Sudden Turn of Events

at last.

A light flashed again on the body of a dark figure.

Ling Yun thrust out his sword without hesitation.

This time, the blade successfully pierced the shadowy figure's body.

The dark figure let out a shrill scream and vanished into the mist in an instant.

Encouraged, the three attacked even more fiercely, and through their combined efforts, the shadowy figure was gradually wiped out.

However, before they could even catch their breath, the surrounding mist suddenly began to swirl, forming a huge vortex.

A powerful pulling force came from the center of the vortex, pulling the three of them back into it.

When they landed again, they found themselves on an ancient battlefield.

The battlefield was filled with smoke and the shouts of battle were deafening as countless soldiers fought each other.

Ling Yun and the other two stared in astonishment at the scene before them, wondering why they had suddenly appeared here.

"Is this still an illusion?" Lin Ximeng asked in confusion.

Ling Yun nodded, carefully observing the battlefield, trying to find a way to leave.

Just then, a familiar figure appeared in their line of sight.

That is the Black Hole Saint King.

He was standing on high ground on the battlefield, directing his soldiers in battle.

"Why is he here too? Could this illusion be related to him?" Qin Feng asked, frowning.

After a moment of contemplation, Ling Yun said, "No matter what, let's get closer to him first; perhaps we can find the key to breaking the illusion."

The three of them cautiously approached the Black Hole Saint.

However, their actions quickly attracted the attention of the soldiers.

A group of soldiers charged toward them, their weapons gleaming coldly.

Left with no other option, Ling Yun and his two companions had to fight back.

They engaged in a fierce battle with the soldiers, who, although merely illusions, were formidable in combat.

Ling Yun displayed exquisite swordsmanship, each strike repelling several soldiers; Qin Feng unleashed magic, his powerful spells causing soldiers to fall to the ground; Lin Ximeng's sword energy swept across the land, leaving soldiers either dead or wounded wherever it went.

After a fierce battle, they finally broke through the soldiers' encirclement and arrived before the Black Hole Saint King.

The Black Hole Saint looked at them, a strange smile appearing on his face.

"You think you can easily break through my illusion? How naive!"

As he spoke, he waved his hands, and the soldiers on the battlefield suddenly stopped fighting and instead surrounded Ling Yun and the other two.

The soldiers' eyes were filled with emptiness and numbness, as if they were being controlled by some kind of force.

Ling Yun and his two companions felt unprecedented pressure. They were surrounded by countless soldiers, and their retreat was cut off.

Just when they were in dire straits, Ling Yun suddenly remembered the flaw he had discovered on the shadowy figure earlier.

She carefully observed the soldiers around her and, sure enough, discovered that they also had a similar light shimmering on their bodies.

Ling Yun was overjoyed and told Qin Feng and Lin Ximeng about her discovery.

The three worked together seamlessly once again, launching their attack whenever the soldier's light flashed.

Through their efforts, the soldiers fell one after another, and the encirclement was gradually torn open.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, the three broke out of the encirclement and continued to approach the Black Hole Saint.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the Black Hole Saint King suddenly transformed into a black ray of light and fled into the depths of the battlefield.

Ling Yun and his two companions gave chase without hesitation. They traversed the smoke-filled battlefield and arrived at a mysterious cave.

The figure of the Black Hole Saint disappeared into the cave. Ling Yun and the other two exchanged a glance, took a deep breath, and then entered the cave.

A damp smell permeated the cave, and a faint light shimmered on the walls.

They proceeded cautiously, wary of any potential dangers around them.

As they walked, they came to a huge stone chamber.

In the center of the stone chamber stood a huge black mirror, its surface emitting an eerie glow.

The Black Hole Saint King stood beside the mirror, looking at Ling Yun and the other two with a smug smile on his face.

"You've finally arrived. The core of this illusion is right here, and you'll never get out!"

Ling Yun looked at the black mirror and felt a strong sense of unease.

She could sense that the mirror contained enormous energy, and this energy was the key to maintaining the illusion.

"We can't let him succeed; we must destroy this mirror!" Ling Yun said firmly.

The three of them rushed towards the Black Hole Saint and the Black Mirror at the same time.

Upon seeing this, the Black Hole Saint King placed his hands on the black mirror.

Instantly, a powerful energy fluctuation emanated from the mirror.

The stone chamber began to shake violently, and countless boulders fell from the cave ceiling.

Ling Yun and his two companions struggled through the chaotic environment, constantly dodging falling boulders while also dealing with the attacks of the Black Hole Saint.

The Black Hole Saint King unleashed his dark power, and beams of black energy shot towards them.

Ling Yun brandished his longsword, deflecting the energy beams one by one; Qin Feng and Lin Ximeng also unleashed their own techniques, engaging in a fierce battle with the Black Hole Saint King.

During the battle, Ling Yun discovered that whenever she attacked the black mirror, the Black Hole Saint King's expression would become extremely painful, as if the mirror had some kind of close connection with him.

A thought struck Ling Yun, and she decided to concentrate her efforts on attacking the black mirror.

She unleashed all her strength and thrust her sword fiercely into the black mirror.

Just as the blade was about to touch the mirror, the Black Hole Saint King suddenly let out a roar.

He lunged at Ling Yun desperately, trying to stop her attack.

Upon seeing this, Qin Feng and Lin Ximeng quickly stepped in to stop the Black Hole Saint Lord.

They engaged in a fierce battle with the Black Hole Saint, buying precious time for Ling Yun.

Ling Yun gritted his teeth and thrust his sword out again with force.

With a deafening roar, the black mirror was finally shattered, and a powerful energy surge instantly spread out, causing the entire illusion to collapse.

Ling Yun and the other two only felt a flash of white light before their eyes, and when they opened their eyes again, they found themselves back in their original world.

The Black Hole Saint King lay weakly on the ground, his previous arrogance gone.

Ling Yun and the other two slowly walked up to him. The Black Hole Saint looked at them, his eyes filled with resentment and despair.

"How...how could you possibly break through my illusion..." the Black Hole Saint King said with difficulty.

Ling Yun stared at him coldly without saying a word.

He raised his sword, ready to deliver the final blow to the Black Hole Saint.

Just then, the mysterious black halo suddenly appeared beside the Black Hole Saint King, and a powerful force emanated from the halo, sucking the Black Hole Saint King into it.

Ling Yun and the other two watched this scene in astonishment. They tried to stop it, but it was too late.

The black halo flashed and disappeared in an instant, and the Black Hole Saint King vanished without a trace.

"What exactly is going on?" Qin Feng asked, puzzled.

Ling Yun shook her head; she couldn't explain this sudden turn of events either.
