A few days later, Xiang Shaoyun arrived at the third layer's entrance in a leisurely fas.h.i.+on. As for the Han Clan sisters behind him, they did not look as leisurely at all. Their clothes were in complete mess, and some terrible-looking scars were visible on their bodies. Evidently, they had gone through many battles recently.

They were constantly glaring at Xiang Shaoyun's back furiously, yet they did not dare to voice their anger. During the past few days, the two had worked together to kill many Devil Kings, and there were times when they were nearly killed.

However, Xiang Shaoyun had turned a blind eye to all of it, letting them deal with the dangers themselves. If it wasn't for the cooperative battle technique they cultivated, they would have died by now.

”What an ungentlemanly b.a.s.t.a.r.d,” cursed Han Qianwei softly.

”Don't say that, big sister. If it wasn't for him, we would have suffered humiliation in the hands of Xue Jianhe. In any case, he had still gotten that middle-aged man to save us the few times we encountered some really powerful devilish beasts,” persuaded Han Xuewei.

Han Qianwei rolled her eyes and said, ”Why are you siding with him all the time? Have you fallen for him?”

”Of course not!” Han Xuewei quickly denied with a blush on her face.

”That better be the case. This fellow is not a good match for you,” said Han Qianwei. A disheartened look appeared on Han Xuewei's face upon hearing that.

”Roar! Roar!”

Numerous roars suddenly rang out in the air. A dreadful wave of devilish energy surged around them as a group of powerful devilish beasts appeared and surrounded them.

”Evil humans, don't even dream of entering the third layer,” roared one of the devils before it transformed into a clump of black mist and crashed down upon Xiang Shaoyun's group.

”Watch out, master. They are the mist devils, responsible for guarding this entrance. They are capable of blending into the devilish energy in the air and are extremely hard to detect. Any carelessness will result in death,” Meng Gansu explained.

”Watch after them. Let me see what these mist devils are capable of,” said Xiang Shaoyun, his battle intent surging.

He hadn't fought for the past few days, but he wasn't idling around doing nothing either. He had been meditating on his previous battle experiences, trying to increase his combat prowess as much as possible. By now, the devil flame seed in his astral cosmos sea had nearly been fully refined by Yun Flame.

The mist devils shrouded the area with thick black mist, greatly reducing visibility. This was an extremely unfavorable environment for any cultivator. However, that was not the case for Xiang Shaoyun. With his Nether Soul Domain, he could sense his surroundings clearly.

The mist devils had the body of a bat, the head of a ghost face, four limbs, and a pair of black wings. Hiding amid the mist, they pounced on the humans. These mist devils had actually reached the Devil Emperor realm.

At that realization, Xiang Shaoyun no longer dared to be careless and started attacking with his Hurricane Kick with all his strength. Numerous clumps of hurricane were sent out, pulling the mist devils in before shredding them with the power of wind.

Unfortunately, the hurricanes failed to deal much damage to the mist devils. One of them was able to arrive safely above Xiang Shaoyun. It opened its mouth wide and tried biting his head.

”Just in time!” Xiang Shaoyun's eyes lit up brightly as the Overlord Skyslaying Saber appeared in his hand. He then swung the saber at the mist devil's wide-opened mouth. The saber streaked through the air like a bolt of lightning. With a flash, the mist devil was cut into two.
