Not long after, just as the Onmyoji were arranging their formation, preparing to execute the Demon-Dispelling Soul-Stabilizing Array in the center of the Beiwang Mountain Nature Reserve, a pure black light, darker than the surrounding night, suddenly appeared in the center of the formation and rapidly spread outward, devouring almost all members of the Superpower Organization standing outside the formation.

Everything was unexpected and happened too quickly for anyone to react. In the blink of an eye, the black light appeared and then disappeared, taking everyone with it.

"Ha!" Once the black light disappeared, a cold laugh echoed.

Following that, a person appeared, holding a strange black stone in his hand. At first glance, that black stone looked like an eye.

"Isn't there a powerful guy named Chen Hao in Tai Shan?" the person muttered to himself, "How did I manage to deal with him so easily?"

However, just as the man was basking in self-satisfaction, a voice sounded from behind him.

"Who are you?"

The man instantly had a sharp gleam in his eyes and swiftly turned around.

"Ah!" He suddenly screamed, his face fiercely punched.

That punch was actually quite heavy; if it had hit an ordinary person, they would have surely fainted, but when it hit the face of this man holding the mysterious stone, it only revealed his true form.

He was a werewolf, also known as the Chairman of the Revival Import and Export Company—Chu Xiangjie.

"Awoo!" Chu Xiangjie howled, his entire body transforming into a wolf.

"So, you're Chen Hao!"

Chu Xiangjie, now a wolf, looked at the person who revealed his true form and said, "I thought you were easily absorbed by this stone."

"I almost was!" Chen Hao honestly said, recalling how he had quickly escaped with Tang Jing and Lin Xiaofan standing beside him to a place hundreds of meters away the instant he saw the black light, thus avoiding the man-eating black light.

"Tai Shan is right; you are an opponent to be wary of, much stronger than Campus Hero!" Chu Xiangjie laughed.

"Campus Hero!" Chen Hao looked shocked, "Could it be?"

"That's right!" Chu Xiangjie's face showed a proud smile, "I've already killed him!"

Hearing this, Chen Hao's expression relaxed, displaying a smile that Chu Xiangjie couldn't fathom.

Chu Xiangjie was very puzzled as to why Chen Hao could still smile at this moment.

"Can you turn invisible? And you can also hide your beast scent and breathing when you do." Chen Hao looked at Chu Xiangjie suspiciously, along with the stone in his hand that resembled an eye.

"Everything you said is correct."

"So, the two friends of mine who came here to investigate a few days ago, were they also absorbed into this stone?" Chen Hao continued to ask.

"Are you referring to the two people who entered the reserve two days ago?"

Chen Hao's expression darkened, realizing that Hua Shan and Xie Xiaofeng were indeed absorbed into the stone. Recalling the incident of the Onmyoji and Superpower Organization members being devoured, all happening suddenly and swiftly, no wonder even someone as capable as Hua Shan couldn't avoid it.

"Let's fight," Chu Xiangjie sneered, "I really want to see how much stronger you are than Campus Hero."

"You can only turn invisible, right? That advantage doesn't work on me," Chen Hao said nonchalantly, "I've always killed people without needing my eyes. However,"

Chen Hao paused briefly then added, "But I'm busy right now dealing with the beast inside. I'll come back and settle with you later!"

"Unless you kill me, I won't let you go in."

Chen Hao chuckled, "Haven't you noticed any changes here?"

"Hmm?" Chu Xiangjie's gaze turned eerie, then he looked around.

Immediately, his face showed shock as he realized the surroundings were eerily quiet, a quiet that felt oppressive. Besides that, he could not sense the presence of his fellow Beast Clan members inside the Beiwang Mountain reserve.

"What's going on?"

Chu Xiangjie glared at Chen Hao: "Where is this place?"

"If you release our people, I'll let you leave this place!" Chen Hao started to negotiate a deal with Chu Xiangjie.

Ignoring Chen Hao, Chu Xiangjie leapt into the forest searching for his companions.

Chen Hao did not chase after him; instead, he made his way to the opposite mountain peak, where Lin Xiaofan and Tang Jing were hiding.

That had taken place while Chen Hao and Chu Xiangjie were speaking; Lin Xiaofan used his ability to control the Mirror Realm to bring them into it without either of them noticing.

"Never mind him for now," said Chen Hao urgently to Lin Xiaofan, "Let's get out first, eliminate the other beasts and beastmen, then come back to deal with him and rescue Xie Xiaofeng and the others from Hua Shan."

As he spoke, Chen Hao's gaze shifted to Tang Jing, knowing that she was very worried about Xie Xiaofeng.

Lin Xiaofan nodded, then abandoning the mirror, he led Tang Jing and Chen Hao out of the Mirror Realm.

Back in the real world, the first thing Chen Hao did was summon Niu Tou from the Netherworld to the mortal world.

Unexpectedly, along with Niu Tou, Zhao Chong also arrived, bringing along more than a dozen top fighters from the Zhao Residence.

Zhao Chong's arrival in the mortal world was naturally prompted by Ye Yuqiao's intentions.

Then, the group charged into the Beiwang Mountain Nature Reserve, launching an onslaught against the Beast Clan hidden in the forest.

After pulling out his long blade, Niu Tou immediately summoned over ten thousand copies of himself, instantly compensating for the inferiority in numbers on their side.

The sudden emergence of so many Niu Tou beasts in the woods caught the nocturnally sleeping Beast Clan by surprise, throwing them off completely.

Despite the Beast Clan possessing modern weapons like firearms, these posed no threat whatsoever to Niu Tou and the masters from the Netherworld.

Thus, the battle didn't last long before the Beast Clan was defeated, with most being killed and only a few managing to escape by luck.

After the battle, Niu Tou, Zhao Chong, and Chen Hao gathered together.

"All of this is thanks to the tremendous help from Niu Tou and Clan Leader Zhao, allowing us to eliminate these beasts so swiftly," said Chen Hao.

"I didn't expect to find so many beasts and beastmen congregating here!" sighed Niu Tou, "And among them were ancient beasts too! Fortunately, Yang King you discovered and eliminated them in time, otherwise, it would definitely lead to disaster, disrupting the order between Yin and Yang realms."

After sending Niu Tou and Zhao Chong off, Chen Hao returned to Lin Xiaofan and Tang Jing's side.

Just then, a pale blue light, like a shooting star from the horizon, landed in front of the trio.

Ye Fei had arrived!

Although he was killed and thrown into the sea by Chu Xiangjie just earlier, before long, he was revived by the fishman's heart within him. Being in the deep sea not only sped up the revival time but also enhanced his strength after the revival.

"Ye Fei, I knew you were alright," Chen Hao said with a light chuckle.

However, Ye Fei's expression was solemn as he said, "Chen Hao, something terrible has happened!"
