Within the formation, Liu Ming was enveloped entirely by black light, his figure obscured, evidently gathering all his power to resist.
The black light surged turbulently, and the powerful demonic aura it caused was felt even by those outside the formation.
Beside Liu Ming, Ye Tianmei and Jialan were caught off guard by the dramatic turn of events, both turning pale.
Though they did not know why the Tongxuan level cultivators had set such a trapping array, based on the two women's strength, resistance was impossible. However, they did not show much panic, standing their ground with cold eyes watching the actions outside.
The eight major families and Tongxuan cultivators from Heaven Monster Valley all turned their gaze toward Madam Zhen, Ancestral Xuanyu, Elder Hao Shou, and the black-robed elder from the Demon Mystery Sect, their faces showing unease.
