Yun Lintian had long discovered the killing formation when he drew closer to this area. And the dark profound light the black-robed man had released was actually coming from this formation, not himself.
Qin Yiran's brows raised in surprise. Killing formation? She had no clue at all!
The black-robed man calmed down and applauded. "Wonderful. You're the first person to detect it. No wonder Master Seer said you are an unknown factor."
Master Seer? Who the hell is that again? Yun Lintian was calmed on the surface, but his mind was full of questions. Before this, it was the lord, now adding the seer? It seemed there was an organized group here.
"Wait for my signal. I will solve this formation, and you can use this chance to finish him. Remember, don't hold back." Yun Lintian sent a sound transmission to Qin Yiran, and the latter kept herself composed without revealing anything.
The black-robed man saw Yun Lintian didn't respond. He quickly waved his hand, and this time, countless profound lights were entirely surrounding Yun Lintian and Qin Yiran.
"Die!" The black-robed man uttered coldly, and the profound lights immediately rushed at Yun Lintian and Qin Yiran, accompanied by a tremendous pressure ten times than before.
Yun Lintian pretended to take something out from his sleeve, but he took four formation stones out from his interspatial ring. With a flick of his hand, the four formation stones flew out in four directions and instantly took effect.
The countless deadly profound lights about to hit Yun Lintian and Qin Yiran abruptly stopped in the air and rushed toward the black-robed man a split second later.
The black-robed man was caught off guard. He hurriedly conjured a profound shield around him, but the profound lights were too strong. Within five seconds, his profound shield started to crack and was on-verge to shatter.
"Now!" Yun Lintian shouted and threw White Dragon Spear at the black-robed man while activating Lightning Blaze.
Qin Yiran was ready a long time ago. She waved her long sword, and a crimson giant sword shadow emerged from behind her and charged at the black-robed man.
The black-robed man knew he would definitely die if he was hit by the incoming attack, whether it was spear or sword shadow. Without hesitation, he released all of his Abyssal Energy, and his body instantly transformed back to his profound beast form.
The previous black-robed man now became a pitch-black giant crow demon. With a scream, the surrounding profound lights scattered right away, leaving behind the sword shadow and White Dragon Spear.
The crow demon flapped its wings, increasing its speed to avoid the attacks, and it had succeeded. However, before it could rejoice, Yun Lintian's figure suddenly appeared behind him like a ghost, grabbing the White Dragon Spear that missed the target and thrust at the crow demon's head with all his might.
The crow demon's eyes wide opened in disbelief as its head was pierced by the White Dragon Spear.
Yun Lintian exerted more strength, and the crow demon's head immediately shattered into pieces, ultimately ending its life.
Yun Lintian landed on the ground and looked at the crow demon's corpse with a soft sigh. Originally, he planned to keep this crow demon alive, but its power had exceeded his expectation. If he waited a little longer, the crow demon would undoubtedly escape. Hence, he decided to kill it directly.
Qin Yiran retracted her sword and looked at Yun Lintian with a trace of admiration. At this moment, she fully understood why her cousin, Qin Yuyan, had reiterated endlessly to befriend him. Not to mention, her proud strength wasn't a thing in front of him. The title of the first person in the younger generation should belong to Yun Lintian instead of her.
Yun Lintian didn't bother to care about Qin Yiran at this time. He used the spear to check on the crow demon's corpse and removed its core. This would become Linlin's snack later.
What made Yun Lintian speechless was that there was nothing else on the crow demon's body except for the Abyssal Profound Beast Core. He was curious. Why would this profound beast who takes a human form carry nothing with it? What was the point of using a human form then?
"Thank you." Qin Yiran was a woman with a few words. She expressed her gratitude and said nothing more.
Yun Lintian waved his hand dismissively and didn't continue on the topic. He asked. "Have you noticed you can't reach the center of this place no matter what?"
Qin Yiran nodded without a word. She had discovered this abnormality two days ago, but she was the same as Yun Lintian — no clue had been found.
Yun Lintian asked further. "How did you meet this guy?"
"He just appeared out of nowhere." Qin Yiran answered. When she had arrived in this area, the black-robed man suddenly appeared out of thin air.
"Is that so?…" Yun Lintian turned around and carefully scanned the vicinity with Eyes of Heaven. He had a hunch there should be an entrance around here. Otherwise, how could the black-robed man choose to reveal himself? He didn't believe the black-robed man didn't know beforehand someone was coming. After all, he said he could control the surveillance formation.
"Are you thinking there's the entrance here?" Qin Yiran was smart enough to guess Yun Lintian's thoughts.
Yun Lintian gave the nod in reply without turning back to her. He checked the surroundings for a long time but still didn't find anything in the end.
Just as he was about to give up, an idea flashed across his mind when he looked at the crow demon's corpse.
Yun Lintian pierced the corpse with White Dragon Spear and lifted it up. He then put its former Abyssal Profound Beast Core back to the corpse and then walked around the place while carrying it.
He walked randomly for ten minutes until the corpse on the tip of the spear bumped into something.. Yun Lintian's eyes lit up and tried to push the corpse forward. In the next moment, the corpse had slowly sunk into an invisible barrier…
