"Huh..."
Seeing the giant python fall to the ground, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and stopped attacking.
"That was close! We almost let this guy run away!"
Bala wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with lingering fear.
"Yes, this guy's strength is really not to be underestimated."
Agni also nodded in agreement.
"Okay, everyone has worked hard," Akash looked at everyone, his tone softened a little, "Let's go back to the spaceship and rest for a while. When it's daybreak, we'll continue our journey."
"Yes, Captain."
Everyone responded in unison, and then returned to the "Brahma Wings".
...
On the spaceship, Saraswati was treating the injuries of her injured companions.
Although they won this battle, they also paid some price.
Several disciples were accidentally swept by the giant python's tail during the battle and suffered serious injuries.
Fortunately, Saraswati's healing magic is very advanced. Under her treatment, the injuries of the injured disciples were under control and there was nothing serious.
"Sister Saraswati, your healing magic is getting better and better."
A female disciple of "Bulahu Zhiyu" looked at Saraswati with admiration in her eyes.
"Yes, Sister Saraswati, you are simply our goddess!"
Another female disciple also said.
"Stop praising me,"
Saraswati was a little embarrassed by their praise. She blushed and said, "How can I compare with you with my little ability?"
"Sister Saraswati, don't be modest,"
A male disciple of "Water of Atri" also said, "Your healing magic has saved us many times. We are very grateful to you."
"Yes, Sister Saraswati, you are our savior!"
Others also echoed.
"Okay, everyone stop talking,"
Saraswati was very happy to see everyone praising her, but she was still a little embarrassed. She quickly changed the subject and said, "Let's take a rest. We still have to travel when the sun rises."
"Okay."
Everyone nodded, and then they all found a place to sit cross-legged and close their eyes to rest.
...
Ebert also found a corner and sat down.
Although he was not injured, he also consumed a lot of magic power and needed to recover in time.
He closed his eyes and began to circulate the magic power in his body to recover his physical strength.
…
Time passed unnoticed.
After an unknown amount of time, Ebert suddenly felt a chill coming from behind him.
He suddenly opened his eyes and turned his head to look.
He saw a figure standing behind him.
The figure was tall and covered in a black cloak. His face could not be seen clearly, but a pair of dark green eyes were exposed. In the dim light, they flashed with a cold and cold light.
"Who?"
Ebert was startled and stood up quickly, holding the long sword tightly in his hand, and stared at the figure vigilantly.
Others were also awakened by Ebert's movement. They opened their eyes and looked in Ebert's direction.
"What happened, Ebert?"
Akash also stood up, walked to Ebert's side, and asked in a deep voice.
"Someone!" Ebert pointed at the figure and said.
"What?"
Everyone was shocked when they heard it, and they all cast their eyes in the direction of Ebert's pointing.
"There!"
Saraswati also found the figure, she exclaimed, pointed at the figure and said.
"Who are you? You're sneaking around. Get out of here!"
Bala roared and punched the figure.
"Bang!"
Bala's fist, with a strong fist wind, hit the figure fiercely.
However, what shocked everyone was that Bala's fist actually went through the figure's body without causing any damage!
"This..."
Bala was stunned in place, with an incredible look on his face.
"Illusion? Or..."
Akash's brows also frowned tightly, and a solemn look flashed in his eyes.
"Hehehe..."
Just then, a gloomy laugh suddenly sounded in the spaceship.
The laugh was sometimes high-pitched and sometimes low, as if it came from hell, making people feel creepy.
"Who? Who is playing tricks?"
Bala roared, and he looked around, trying to find the person who laughed.
"No need to look, I'm here."
The gloomy voice sounded again, and this time, the source of the sound was clearer, right in the center of the spaceship!
Everyone hurriedly looked towards the center of the spaceship.
I saw that in the center of the spaceship, a black fog appeared at some point.
The fog rolled and surged, as if it was alive, exuding a cold and evil breath.
"That is..."
Everyone's pupils shrank suddenly, and their eyes showed a look of horror.
...
Just as everyone was stunned, the black fog suddenly began to change. It began to condense and take shape, and gradually a human figure appeared.
"Look, what has the fog become?" Saraswati exclaimed.
Everyone looked closely and saw a tall and gloomy figure appearing in the black fog. The figure gradually became clear, revealing a face as pale as death. A pair of dark green eyes exuded a cold light, which was frightening.
"Yes... it's a demon!" Akash took a breath and his face changed.
"Humph, you finally found me." The demonic voice echoed in the spaceship again, "I am the one who has been spying on you in secret."
"What? You have been following us?" Ebott clenched his sword and stared at the demon vigilantly.
"Yes, it's me." The demon sneered, "But even if you find me, what can you do? You are just caterpillars, how can you compete with a high-level demon like me?"
"High-level demon? What on earth are you?" Bala roared, "I think you are a fake liar, get out and die!"
After that, Bala punched the demon again. But just like before, the fist just penetrated and could not hurt the demon at all.
"Hahaha, stupid human, do you think you can hurt me with your insignificant power?" The demon sneered, "You are not my opponent at all."
"Then how can I defeat you?" Akash frowned and asked in a deep voice.
"Defeat me? Humph, you can't." The demon sneered, "Unless you can awaken special powers, you will never be able to defeat me, a high-level demon."
"Special powers? What powers?" Saraswati asked in confusion.
"Hahaha, you will know soon. But before that, I will let you taste the taste of despair!" The demon said, waving his hand violently, and the black fog in the sky suddenly swept towards everyone.
"Be careful! What is that?" Ebert shouted.
Everyone hurriedly fled in all directions, trying to avoid the surging black fog. But the black fog was like a living thing, constantly chasing them and gradually enveloping them.
"Ah, so cold, so scary!" Saraswati screamed in horror.
"Damn, what is this black fog?" Bala gnashed his teeth.
"This is the power of the devil! We must find a way to break through it!" Akash said anxiously.
Just as everyone was about to be swallowed by the black fog, Ebert suddenly had an idea.
Ebert used the rage of the wind in the language of nature to summon a tornado to sweep the devil. The howling wind swept everything around, dust flew, trees broke, and the devil screamed miserably....
"Quick, attack now!" Ebert shouted.
Upon hearing this, everyone used their abilities to attack the devil. Akash condensed an ice crystal column, Bala waved his fist and rushed towards the devil, Agni's fire dragon swallowing the sky technique tore through the black fog like a celestial vortex, and the tentacles of the flames devoured the approaching black fog with greedy hunger.
"No, how can this be possible!" The demon roared in despair, and the huge body finally collapsed under the attack of everyone, turning into black mist and scattering.
"We did it! We defeated the demon!" Saraswati said happily.
"But, what is he? Why is he here?" Akash frowned and thought.
"No matter who he is, we have temporarily gotten rid of his harassment." Ebert breathed a sigh of relief, "Now let's move on."
Everyone nodded, got back on the spaceship, and continued to move towards the destination. But they all felt that this was just the beginning, and there would be greater challenges in the future...
