Chu Liang and his two companions walked slowly, careful not to surpass the red fog. Despite their snail's pace, they eventually reached the edge of Fog Island.
However, once they arrived, they noticed a change: the formerly barren perimeter was nowhere to be seen. Instead, a blood-red coral barrier sprouted all around, enclosing the entire island.
Lady Hong Yu had sealed this area!
"Did she do this to prevent Elder Mayfly from escaping?" Xu Ziyang turned to glance back, his brow furrowed. "The red mist won't last much longer. We have to hurry and break through the barrier!"
"I'll do it!"
Chu Liang's Sword Intent peaked in an instant, and he swiftly drew his Demon-slaying Sword!
Shit——
With a single strike, the barrier, constructed of hard coral, only cracked slightly under his powerful Void Slashing swing. Moreover, the coral on both sides quickly regrew and healed itself, leaving no trace of the earlier blow.
