Huff!

  The unending gray mist was all absorbed into Blackie’s mouth.

  Blackie’s stomach started to expand. It started to look like a ball.

  The pavilion leader cried out in agony. He finally lost control of his mist form as all the gray mist was swallowed by Blackie.

  Woof woof woof!

  Blackie cried out to the skies as his body kept expanding and shrinking, again and again…


  The unending gray mist started to seep out of his body, surrounding him completely.

  There was even gray mist within Blackie’s pupils.

  “L-L-Lord Dog, are you okay?” Xiao Chengfeng’s teeth were chattering as he quietly retreated a few steps, maintaining a safe distance away from Blackie.

  Even when he was facing the pavilion leader contaminated by the gray mist, he had not been afraid. Yet, he did not dare to make a single move when facing Blackie who was being contaminated by the gray mist. He was worried he’d be killed with a single wave of Blackie’s paw.

  The others were also looking at Blackie in fear, retreating as well.

  Blackie had mentioned that the gray mist could only be cleansed in the expert’s yard. He had just swallowed all the gray mist, so there would definitely be problems.

  In truth, just by looking at Blackie’s state, it was obvious that there were problems!

  “Ugh!”


  Blackie was constantly growling in a low tone. An aggressive aura exploded from within his body. The strong pressure caused Xiao Chengfeng and the others to suffocate. The gray mist was still circling his body.

  However, at that moment, Blackie’s pants suddenly glowed.

  The glow from the pants was constantly fighting against the gray mist. In the end, it managed to suppress all of the gray mist.

  The scene caused everyone’s eyes to light up, pleasantly surprised.

  “T-that’s a very extraordinary pair of pants!”


  “It’s actually able to suppress all that dense gray mist. It’s an amazing heavenly tool!”


  “Is everything okay?”


  Xiao Chengfeng answered, “These are pants that the expert made for Lord Dog. Its power might be immense, but it looks like it’s still not enough.”


  Those words shocked everyone again.

  The expert was the expert. Just a casually made pair of pants was already so powerful. It defied all expectations.

  The expert could produce peerless heavenly items whenever he pleased?

  Why was he so strong?

  Yun Chen said with worry, “What do we do?”


  The gray mist might have temporarily been suppressed, but Lord Dog’s body was still shaking. It was obvious that Blackie was struggling to hold on, and they did not know how long the pants would last. “Judging by the situation, we have to look for the expert,” Xiao Chengfeng said seriously.

  That was the expert’s beloved dog. If anything were to happen to Blackie, he would not know what to tell the expert.

  They still had time to rush to the expert. He would definitely be able to save Blackie.

  “Lord Dog, I’ll bring you back to the expert. Please, don’t bite me,” Xiao Chengfeng walked over to Blackie as he spoke meekly. Right after that, he grabbed Blackie and headed toward the Forbidden Area.

  They ran as quickly as they could. In less than four hours, they arrived at the foot of Fallen Immortal Mountain.

  Even though it was their second time here, the people from the Divine Sword Mountain still looked at the mountain with deep respect.

  Just by looking at it, they could sense that the whole mountain was filled with the power of Wisdom. It was right in front of them, but it seemed like its own world. There were countless auras that could not be described coming from within. They did not dare to do anything reckless at all.

  The stele in front of the mountain, Jiang Liu the woodcutter, and even the two who picked up manure. Even the wildlife and the plants were things that would be unbelievable to the outside world. Every flower and plant was filled with Wisdom. A commoner would be able to become an immortal just by looking at everything!

  Fu Yuanhai took a deep breath as he stared at the mountain. His eyes glinted uncertainly as he quietly followed behind Xiao Chengfeng.

  “How is Lord Dog doing?”


  The stele and Elite King were both drawn to Blackie’s condition.

  They appeared at the same time and looked at Blackie anxiously.

  “Xiao Chengfeng, what are you trying to pull? You caused the expert’s beloved dog to end up like this?”


  “I even gave you two buckets of treasure. What happened?”


  Xiao Chengfeng let out a bitter smile as he said helplessly, “The gray mist is really difficult to handle. Lord Dog ate a lot of it and ended up like this. I need to hurry up the mountain. The expert might be able to do something.”


  “Ah, Lord Dog must be in a lot of pain.”


  The stele let out a sigh. It had been contaminated by the gray mist before, so it could empathize. Thankfully, the expert helped him.

  The Elite King said with concern, “Let’s not delay things any further then. Hurry on up.”


  As Xiao Chengfeng carried Blackie up the mountain, the Elite King and the stele stopped the rest from advancing.

  “Xiao Chengfeng can go up alone. The expert’s on a break, so it’s not good for all you cultivators to go up at the same time. Please, forgive us.”


  The few of them were strangers. They had never met the expert before, so they were stopped.

  “Haha, that’s fine. We won’t go up then.”


  The Divine Sword Mountain’s lord immediately retreated.

  He had really wanted to look at the expert’s awesomeness. After all, being able to see such an amazing character was something that only happened once in a lifetime. However, he knew the rules as well. He was merely a side character at most at that point, he still needed to work hard.

  Behind everyone, Fu Yuanhai’s eyes had an imperceptible tinge of reluctance.

  Xiao Chengfeng already knew the way up, so he went straight to the middle of the mountain, and the courtyard slowly appeared.

  “Lord Dog, don’t worry. We’re here. We’re right in front of your home now. You have to hold on!” Xiao Chengfeng consoled Blackie as he walked to the door. He could not help but feel a sense of apprehension.

  Blackie had ended up like that. Would the expert be angry and decide to kill him?

  Ah, he had been too reckless. He should not have allowed Lord Dog to suck up the gray mist!

  Xiao Chengfeng clenched his teeth and knocked on the door.

  Knock knock knock.

  “Xiao Chengfeng has an urgent matter for Lord Saint.”


  “Oh, no.” Nanan was the one who opened the door. Her eyes flashed as she looked at Xiao Chengfeng in confusion. However, when she saw Blackie on Xiao Chengfeng’s back, her eyes widened anxiously.

  “What happened to Blackie?”


  “It’s all my fault for being so weak. I caused Lord Dog to be like this.”


  Xiao Chengfeng’s face was filled with self-blame as he brought Blackie inside.

  At that moment, Daji and the others had already come forward as well. When they saw Blackie, their expressions changed. They were filled with anxiety and anger. They even had a violent glint in their eyes.

  Blackie was not only the expert’s beloved dog, he was also an existence that had been with the expert since the very start. Practically all of them had been helped by Blackie before. However, at that moment, Blackie was reduced to that state.

  Looking at him holding back the pain, tears started to form in Dragin’s eyes.

  Daji had a serious look on her face. “Blackie ate too much gray mist.”


  “That’s right. This time, we met an incredibly strong gray mist. It’s all my fault. I should’ve asked for reinforcements earlier. Can we save Lord Dog?”


  Xiao Chengfeng’s face was incredibly bitter as he kept blaming himself.

  “The gray mist won’t come out so easily. I’m worried that it’s currently corrupting Blackie.”


  Daji shook her head as she frowned.

  When she collected the gray mist before, she had always killed the host before sealing it. Yet, she could not kill Blackie in that situation.

  “Oh, no.”


  Suddenly, the door to the backyard opened. Li Nianfan walked over from the backyard and could not help but be stunned when he saw Blackie on the ground. After that, he hurried over.

  “Is this…rabies?!”
