At this moment, the duel between Shi Feiyang and the black-clad leader had reached a fever pitch.

Shi Feiyang's gaze was as resolute as iron, akin to an eternal star in the cold night, exuding a determined fighting spirit, as though it could pierce through the black-clad leader's defenses. He gave it his all, channeling the Bright Jade Technique, and in an instant, a dense layer of white mist enveloped his entire body.

This mist was far from ordinary; it carried a bone-chilling coldness, as if it came from deep within an ice cellar. It rustled, carrying a trembling cold aura. The surrounding air instantly froze, forming a thin, crystalline frost, which rapidly spread along the ground and stone walls at a speed visible to the naked eye, crackling as it expanded.

True Qi formed a rapidly spinning vortex within Shi Feiyang's body, buzzing like a miniature tornado racing through, possessing tremendous strength, as if it would burst his body apart. He gripped the Myanmar Saber, exuding an aura like a war god descending upon the world, radiating an intimidating pressure. Shi Feiyang unleashed the deadly move "Heaven and Earth Share Longevity" from the terrifying Hundred Victories Saber Technique.

The Myanmar Saber in Shi Feiyang's hand carved out extremely sharp beams of light in the air, each beam carrying endless coldness, as if it could slice everything in the world into two. The saber light shimmered like cold moons.

Where the saber light passed, the air seemed to be cut by an invisible sharp blade, emitting a piercing screech, forming visible waves of air spreading outward, with the sound of wind roaring incessantly.

Shi Feiyang perfectly merged the coldness of the Bright Jade Technique with the sharpness of the Hundred Victories Saber Technique, greatly increasing his power, as if to exist eternally with the heavens and perish together with the enemy, a momentum that shook the earth.

Faced with such fierce and sharp attacks, the black-clad leader showed no fear, with eyes burning with a mad flame, seemingly determined to either kill or be killed with Shi Feiyang. That insane gaze seemed capable of igniting the surrounding air. He countered with the exquisite Mountain-Cracking Saber Technique, each slash accompanied by howling saber winds, slicing the surrounding air with a "sizzling" sound, astonishingly powerful, seeming to split open the tunnel.

Their clash was intense, with interlacing saber flashes and sword shadows, dazzling and overwhelming.

Clang, clang! The metal collision sounds were incessant, like dense drumbeats, echoing "ding ding dang dang" through the tunnel, sparks flying like brilliant fireworks in the night sky, illuminating the dim tunnel.

Shi Feiyang's gaze was like a torch, fixed on the black-clad leader; suddenly, he keenly spotted the flaw of an old injury in the black-clad leader, a joy flickering in his heart, his lips curling slightly, revealing an imperceptible cold smile.

Shi Feiyang instantly changed his move, using the saber as a sword, his movements swift as lightning, nearly impossible for anyone to track, leaving only a blurred afterimage. The Myanmar Saber in his hand, like a streak of black lightning, carried the bone-chilling coldness of the Bright Jade Technique, and with a "whoosh", directly thrust towards the black-clad leader's chest. Unable to dodge, the black-clad leader was struck in the shoulder, blood gushing out like a fountain, with a "pfft", instantly dyeing his clothes red in the dim tunnel, appearing particularly shocking and glaring. He stumbled backward a few steps, yet gritted his teeth and said, "Do you think you've won? When that thing appears, the entire Jianghu will go to its grave!"

Shi Feiyang's gaze turned stern, a flash of anger in his eyes, increasing the force in his grip on the Myanmar Saber, stabbing it deeper into the black-clad leader's shoulder, shouting, "What thing is it? Speak up!" His voice was filled with authority and urgency.

At the other end of the tunnel, the monster had broken free from the stone pillar's restraint.

It let out an utterly furious roar filled with infinite resentment and rage, a "howl" shaking the tunnel. It launched another attack towards Gong Simeng, Jin Liufu, and Xiang Kun. Xiang Kun's spiritual power was nearly depleted, his face pale as paper, devoid of color, as his body weakly collapsed to the ground, eyes revealing deep despair, as if the world had plunged into a dark abyss, his breathing weak, seeming to cease at any moment.

Jin Liufu had exhausted his hidden weapons too, gripping a short dagger tightly, veins bulging on the back of his hand like winding earthworms, ready for a final hand-to-hand combat with the monster. His eyes were full of determination and resolve, even if shattered into pieces, he would not retreat.

At this critical moment, Shi Feiyang successfully subdued the black-clad leader, loudly ordering, "Have your monster stop its actions!"

However, the black-clad leader responded with a maniacal laugh, "Too late, it's all too late!" As he spoke, the end of the tunnel suddenly radiated bright light as a massive sphere emitting mysterious blue light slowly ascended.

Countless beams of blue light spread outward like agile tentacles, the light akin to a blazing sun, instantly illuminating the entire tunnel, making it almost impossible to keep one's eyes open, so dazzling it was mesmerizing.

Shi Feiyang, Gong Simeng, Jin Liufu, Xiang Kun, and others were enveloped by this sudden light, an unprecedented sense of oppression swept over them like an invisible yet immensely heavy mountain weighing down upon them, nearly suffocating them. Their chests heaved violently, and breathing was rapid. It was as if a mysterious and powerful force was scrutinizing them, plunging the entire tunnel into a deathly silence, only the blue light continuously flickering, seeming to transmit some unknown message.

As the eerie blue light extended further, touching objects were eroded by a cold force.

A layer of frost instantly condensed on the tunnel's stone walls, the frost crystal-clear, yet carrying bone-chilling coldness.

The frost spread rapidly, covering the entire stone wall within moments, cloaking the tunnel in an ice armor, crackling as it did.

The monster was covered by the blue light and surprisingly ceased its attack, standing motionless, its ferocious gaze replaced by bewilderment.

Its body trembled slightly, seemingly fearful of something, the massive physique appearing especially helpless under the blue light, its limbs quivering as if unable to withstand this mysterious force.

Shi Feiyang keenly sensed that this sphere emitting mysterious blue light might be the key to unraveling all mysteries, but it could also be the horrific source of a greater crisis.

His eyes revealed unwavering determination and resolute decisiveness, without any hesitation, disregarding personal safety, resolutely charging toward that dazzling blue sphere, his figure appearing exceptionally determined amidst the blue light.

Seeing this, Gong Simeng was filled with urgency, shouting loudly, "Feiyang, be careful!" Her voice was full of worry and anxiety, for Shi Feiyang's safety was her whole world's safety, her voice seeming to penetrate this mysterious blue light. Without hesitation, she sprinted closely behind him.

At this moment, Xiang Kun, spiritual power depleted, sat weakly on the ground, unable to move, only able to watch with eyes full of helplessness and worry, his heart filled with a sense of powerlessness. Jin Liufu exhausted all his strength extending a hand, firmly pulling Gong Simeng back, his face full of concern, eyebrows tightly furrowed, his hands slightly trembling due to exertion.

The blue sphere, like a powerful cannonball, heavily struck Shi Feiyang's back.

"Boom!" In an instant, it issued a deafening roar. That sound was as if the heavens had collapsed, the universe overturned, causing everyone's eardrums to ache, with the world trembling momentarily amid this roar, and the tunnel shaking violently.

Shi Feiyang, hit by this impact, involuntarily raised his head to the sky, a pained expression on his face.

His brows were tightly furrowed, as if pulled by an invisible force, the corners of his mouth slightly twisted, seemingly a force difficult to suppress was surging within, ready to cause him to vomit blood at any moment.

However, at this critical juncture, Shi Feiyang abruptly toppled onto the black-clad leader, using his body to shield the leader from this deadly blow, his body heavily pressing against the leader, emitting a muffled sound.
