Duanmu Feng Hua and Duanmu Fu, one on the left and one on the right, were always leading the way. Naturally, they were the closest to the black fog.

When the black mist arrived, the two of them bore the brunt of it. Before they could react, their bodies were already covered by the black mist.

At this moment, Duanmu Fenghua placed his hand on Zhang Junwei's body, his true energy forming a protective s.h.i.+eld around his body.

Zhang Junwei didn't know what to do. He could only rely on the amulet to protect himself from the black mist, but soon he felt another wave of energy wrap around his body. His taut heartstrings relaxed.

After seeing who was helping him, Zhang Jun heaved a sigh of relief. He could not help but look gratefully at Duanmu Fenghua.

At this time, Duanmu Fenghua ignored Zhang Junwei.

His eyes once again fell on Lu Chen.

Seeing Lu Chen using only low-grade dark cla.s.s zhenqi to form a s.h.i.+eld around his body, Duanmu Fenghua's first thought was to be worried.

However, this worry soon turned into curiosity.

This was because he discovered that this clearly only had a low-grade Profound Rank zhen qi s.h.i.+eld, but it had actually successfully blocked the attack of the black fog.

Even though it looked like it would collapse at any moment, the fact that it could block it far exceeded Duanmu Feng Hua's expectations.

He had originally thought that he would have to at least have the strength of a mid-tier Xuan cla.s.s to barely withstand this sort of attack.

Even if his cultivation was slightly lower, he might not be able to last even ten seconds.

What was he trying to do?

Duanmu Fenghua could not help but frown.

He felt that he was starting to find it harder and harder to understand Lu Chen.

Actually, Lu Chen was also feeling bitter.

Even though his zhen qi s.h.i.+eld was strengthened by karmic power, the black mist was unable to erode it.

One side seemed endless, while the other side seemed to consume less and less.

At this moment, the s.h.i.+eld that Lu Chen had built with his true qi began to shake violently.

Coincidentally, he had noticed Duanmu Feng Hua's gaze, so Lu Chen didn't think too much of it and directly sent him a pleading look.

What was going on?

Was he really unable to deal with the corrosion of the black mist?

This didn't make sense!

Although he couldn't figure it out, Duanmu Fenghua quickly regained his senses.

Regardless, he decided to help Lu Chen first.

Duanmu Fenghua's reaction was extremely fast. With a thought, he took a step forward and placed his other hand on Lu Chen's shoulder.

With the support of Duanmu Fenghua's true energy, Lu Chen felt his entire body relax.

The teetering s.h.i.+eld of steam was also stabilized in an instant, and the black gas was unable to advance any further.

Only then did Lu Chen secretly heave a sigh of relief.

At this time, Lu Chen's gaze fell onto the black fog and began to observe it carefully.

On the other hand, the zhen qi s.h.i.+eld that he had released earlier had formed a sharp contrast.

Upon discovering this rule, a thought suddenly appeared in Lu Chen's mind. He wanted to test what exactly was going on with this black mist.

Sure enough, once this bullying true energy sensed the true energy s.h.i.+eld on Lu Chen's body and the power he released weakened, it immediately gathered around him and once again attempted to break through the s.h.i.+eld and invade his body.

As Lu Chen continued to reduce the strength of his Zhen Qi s.h.i.+eld, the black mist gradually began to seep into his body.

Although it was only for an instant, Lu Chen once again strengthened his zhen qi s.h.i.+eld, once again isolating his body from the black fog, that little bit of black fog was enough to make him feel fearful.

Lu Chen could clearly feel it. The moment the black mist touched his body, he felt his heart tremble, as if he had fallen into an abyss.

Moreover, he had every reason to believe that if the appearance of the Power of Merit had been a little slower, he would have been affected by the black fog and become restless, in the same situation as Dao Ba.

It was a violent power that could control a person's mind, and would naturally give birth to an urge to kill.

With the support of the Immoveable Bright King Talisman, the aftermath of the black mist on his spirit was quickly suppressed.

There is a saying that a person is mature and intelligent.

Although he did not quite understand it in the beginning, after he clearly sensed the changes on Lu Chen's body, Duanmu Fenghua finally realized that Lu Chen was deliberately risking his life to figure out what was going on with this black fog.

As he finished speaking, Duanmu Fenghua suddenly pointed at the air with his right hand, and a golden light filled with greyness was released from the tip of his finger.

Suddenly, the entire tomb overflowed with golden light, dazzling everyone's eyes.

The cold air seemed to have become warmer at this moment.

Seeing the effect of the golden light, Lu Chen couldn't help but be stunned.

If he didn't know that the Duanmu Family was using the evil aura to cultivate, then that would be fine.

However, it was unavoidable for them to be tainted with hostility, yet they still had such moderate Buddhist methods. If they did not see it with their own eyes, they would not have believed it.

Lu Chen was surprised to discover that within that seemingly peaceful golden light, there was actually a black aura mixed in!

It was obvious that the incantation was also affected by the evil aura.

In other words, this golden light was a mutated golden light.
