The fire phoenix, transformed from flames, instantly spread its enormous wings and charged straight into the black mist.

"Hiss hiss hiss!"

The fire phoenix let out a deafening cry, and the flames engulfed the black mist completely.

The black mist gradually dissipated under the scorching heat of the flames, eventually turning into a wisp of white smoke that vanished without a trace.

Meanwhile, the cracks on the cave walls gradually healed under the melting of the flames.

The entire space returned to calm, with only the fire phoenix circling in the air.

Su He breathed a sigh of relief, withdrew the fire phoenix, and continued to channel spiritual energy into Qi Yu.

Jin Tianxiang and Shi Feng nodded repeatedly and joined Su He's group.

The three people continuously poured their spiritual energy into Qi Yu's body, and it quickly took effect.

Qi Yu's complexion became rosy, and his breathing became stronger.

Finally, with the combined efforts of the three, Qi Yu slowly opened his eyes.

"you?"

Qi Yu called out weakly, seemingly still a little dazed.

Su He quickly stepped forward and helped Qi Yu up.

"It's alright, Qi Yu, you're safe now."

"Thanks to Brother Su and the others, otherwise I would probably be dead."

Immediately, Qi Yu quickly took out the scroll that the man in black robes had been eyeing from his pocket and handed it to Su He with both hands.

"I'll leave this scroll to you, Brother Su. I can't understand the contents, nor can I decipher its mysteries."

Su He nodded, took the scroll, and examined it carefully.

The scroll was covered with strange runes.

Su He channeled his spiritual energy, attempting to unscrew the scroll.

When his spiritual power touched the scroll, he felt a strong resistance that repelled it.

"This scroll indeed contains immense power; it seems that opening it will not be an easy task."

Su He frowned.

"There should still be a way."

He took a deep breath, circulated his spiritual energy throughout his body, formed hand seals, and chanted incantations.

As soon as Su He appeared, spiritual energy gradually gathered around him, forming a huge halo that completely enveloped him.

"What kind of supernatural power is this?"

Jin Tianxiang asked in surprise.

Su He did not answer, but continued to circulate his spiritual power, and the halo grew brighter and brighter.

Suddenly, the halo exploded, turning into countless rays of light that enveloped the entire space.

"Buzzing!"

The light collided with the reel, producing a series of piercing sounds.

The resistance on the scroll gradually dissipated under the impact of the light, and was eventually completely eliminated.

Su He let out a long sigh, withdrew the light, and carefully opened the scroll.

The scroll depicted a peculiar pattern, with a strangely shaped sword prominently displayed in the center.

The sword was entirely black, radiating a chilling aura.

"Is this the legendary Demon Sword?"

Su He muttered to himself in surprise as he carefully examined the contents of the scroll.

Sure enough, the scroll contained detailed records of the origin and power of the Demon Sword, as well as the location where it was sealed.

"So the Demon Sword was hidden in this ruin. No wonder there are so many traps and formations protecting it."

Su He pondered for a moment, then suddenly frowned.

"However, according to the scroll, the location of the Demon Sword is still far from where we are now."

"Moreover, we seem to be trapped in this maze-like passageway now, with no way to get out."

Upon hearing this, Jin Tianxiang and Shi Feng also looked anxious.

"What should we do then? Are we just going to give up?"

"Giving up is absolutely out of the question. This Demon Sword is an unparalleled treasure, and we must find a way to get our hands on it."

He looked around and carefully observed the structure of the passage.

"Although these passages look intricate, they should all be arranged according to some kind of pattern."

"If we can find the pattern, we might be able to find a way out."

"Senior brother is right, we must find a way to get out of here!"

After discussing it for a while, the three decided to continue along the passage in search of clues to the exit.

Gradually, they seemed to have discovered some patterns.

"Look, the structure of these passages seems to be arranged according to some kind of formation."

Su He pointed to the patterns on the wall and said slowly.

"These mechanisms and formations are all designed to prevent outsiders from getting close to the Fiend Sword."

Jin Tianxiang and Shi Feng nodded repeatedly, gradually noticing some clues.

"That's it! I sense a powerful aura; that must be the exit!"

Suhe shouted excitedly and quickened his pace.

Jin Tianxiang and Shi Feng followed closely behind, also looking excited.

A huge formation suddenly appeared in front of us.

"What kind of formation is this? It's incredibly powerful!"

Shi Feng exclaimed in surprise, his expression changing drastically.

Before they could react, a dazzling beam of light suddenly shot out from the center of the formation, heading straight for the three of them!

"Be careful!"

Su He shouted and quickly channeled his spiritual power to create a protective barrier in front of the three people.

The light struck the shield, producing a piercing sound, but the shield remained completely still.

"By the way, why don't we use the power of that scroll to counteract this formation?"

He quickly opened the scroll and carefully studied its contents.

He then channeled his spiritual power and, following the instructions on the scroll, drew a peculiar array on the ground.

The formation was completed.

Suddenly, the light burst open, transforming into countless beams of light that shot towards the formation.

"Buzzing!"

The energy fluctuations on the array gradually weakened under the impact of the beam of light, and eventually dissipated completely.

The three of them continued forward and soon arrived at a huge stone gate.

"Looks like we've finally found the exit!"

Su He was overjoyed and used his spiritual power to push open the stone door.

Outside lay a vast space, the very same stone cave they had initially entered.

The three of them quickly walked out of the stone gate and came to the center of the cave.

Then Su He led Jin Tianxiang, Shi Feng, and Qi Yu, following the instructions on the scroll, onto the correct path leading to the location of the Evil Sword.

A thick, malevolent aura emanated from ahead, sending chills down one's spine.

"What is this? Such terrifying malevolent energy!"

Qi Yu cried out in alarm and quickly retreated.

Su He frowned, as if he had realized something.

"This malevolent aura must be emanating from the Fiend Sword! It seems we're not far from where the Fiend Sword is!"

Before the words were finished, an even stronger aura of malevolence suddenly swept over them, enveloping the four of them.

"Cough cough! This malevolent aura is terrifying!"

Shi Feng covered his mouth and nose, panting heavily.

Su He was also pale, barely suppressing the murderous aura.

He channeled his spiritual power to create a protective shield in front of the four people, attempting to resist the malevolent energy.

The malevolent energy was so intense that the protective shield gradually dissipated within it.

"Oh no! We're about to be swallowed up by the evil energy!"

Jin Tianxiang exclaimed in alarm and struggled desperately.

Just then, an even more powerful aura suddenly surged from the front, heading straight for Qi Yu.

"Qi Yu! Watch out in front of you!"
