The moment he entered the darkness, Shi Xiaole immediately lost contact with the others.
The power here, unlike the demonic aura of Black Devil Ridge, diluted his senses rather than limiting them, just as ink diffuses in clear water.
After wandering alone in the dark for an indeterminable amount of time, Shi Xiaole unexpectedly collided with another person.
The other person reacted quickly, slashing their blade towards him with the force of a wild storm.
Drawing his Redfire Sword from his waist, Shi Xiaole parried it.
Bang!
Their blades clashed, causing the man to retreat. Shi Xiaole immediately lost sight of him, but he instinctively thrust his sword out, provoking a muffled grunt from the darkness.
"What a dangerous place."
In here, where senses have no effect, one could encounter others at any moment, and a slight delay could result in their demise.
After all, those who entered weren't solely from the Lan and Huang families. Who knew who was friend or foe?
