Gods: Start with Goblins

Hearing this, Luo Dan couldn't help but smile bitterly, thinking to himself: "Oh no, this seems to be aimed at me." A hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes, but then he became determined. He knew that he couldn't just sit there and wait for death, and he had to find a way to deal with the predicament in front of him.

He clenched his teeth and took a deep breath, as if to cheer himself up. He murmured to himself, "It seems that I have to do it this time. Well, since I can't avoid it, I will face it bravely."

At the same time, the people outside saw Luo Dan trapped, and looked at each other with worry and anxiety on their faces. They prayed in their hearts, hoping that Luo Dan would be safe.

Luo Dan's heart skipped a beat. He felt the concern of the people outside, and a warm current surged in his heart. He knew that he was not fighting alone, and there were so many people who cared about him.

Then, he couldn't help but shouting to the old men outside: "You old men, is there any way you can save me? If I continue to be trapped in here, will I be unable to get out?" There was a hint of anxiety and helplessness in his voice, but more of it was trust and expectation for the people outside.

Several old men frowned upon hearing this. They knew that Luo Dan was in a very dangerous situation and that he could lose his life if he wasn't careful. However, they were unwilling to give up on Luo Dan, after all, he was the best among the younger generation that they had watched grow up.

So, they began to discuss countermeasures, hoping to find a safe and effective way to rescue Luo Dan. Luo Dan waited quietly inside, he knew that the only thing he could do now was to stay calm and patient and wait for rescue from outside.

The elders of several sects gathered together, staring at the mysterious formation. The light and shadows in the formation intertwined, and the trajectory was strange and elusive. They looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a moment.

"This formation is extremely strange." An elder said, his tone full of doubt, "We can't figure out the principle behind it for a while. Most importantly, this trajectory is too strange. It exudes mystery all over."

Another elder nodded and added, "Indeed. This formation seems to have its own will, constantly changing its form, making it hard to predict. If we act rashly, it may backfire."

Hearing this, Luo Dan's heart tightened. He was stunned for a moment, his face full of disbelief. How could it be possible? He was Luo Dan, how could he be trapped in this formation and unable to get out?
He looked anxiously at several elders of the sect, hoping that they could come up with a way to save him. However, the faces of the elders were full of helplessness and confusion.

"Maybe he has to break out on his own." An elder spoke slowly, his tone full of helplessness, "We can't ask for help from outside forces. If we rely on outside forces, it may backfire."

Luo Dan heard this and became even more anxious. He frowned, not knowing what to do. Although he was mentally prepared for the strength of the evil cultivator, he was still shocked when he saw it with his own eyes.

Just when he was struggling over whether to go and rescue him, Zhang Xiaoruo stopped him in time. He spoke slowly and firmly: "No, we can't go. This is a conspiracy against Luo Dan, and only Luo Dan can break it. Otherwise, no one can help him."

Luo Dan was unwilling to accept the words, but he also knew that what Zhang Xiaoruo said made sense. He took a deep breath and tried to calm his anxiety. He knew that he could only rely on himself now.

He spoke with great confidence, his words were full of unquestionable determination, as if every word weighed a thousand pounds and struck Luo Dan's heart. Luo Dan stood there, feeling unhappy, his expression so solemn that it seemed as if water could drip out of it. He knew very well that the current situation did not allow him to relax at all, and every decision could be related to life and death.

"Luodan, you must give me a clear answer this time!" The man's voice sounded again, with irresistible force.

Luo Dan pursed his lips and did not answer immediately. His eyes penetrated through the layers of fog, as if he was looking for something. At this time, he heard the anxious calls of Jiaolong and Qilin.

"Luodan, what happened to you? Come out quickly!" The dragon's voice was full of worry. It circled anxiously outside, but did not dare to easily enter this unknown area.

Although the Qilin did not shout as urgently as the dragon, it did not forget to take advantage of this opportunity to recover. It was seriously injured and has not recovered yet. If it had not returned to the origin and borrowed the power here, the Qilin would have felt better. However, the person who caused it to be like this was Luo Dan. The Qilin's eyes burst out with murderous aura, and it secretly swore that it would never let Luo Dan go easily.

--------

The dragon felt Qilin's anger and murderous intent, and it couldn't help but feel a little worried. It knew that once Qilin went crazy, the consequences would be disastrous. So it tried to comfort Qilin: "Qilin, calm down, Luodan must have his own difficulties."

However, Qilin seemed not to have heard Jiaolong's words, and its eyes were still cold and firm. It knew that it had to become stronger in order to seek justice from Luodan. So, it began to focus more on recovering its body, while silently thinking about how to deal with Luodan. Luodan felt the movement outside, and he knew that Jiaolong and Qilin were worried about him. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself. Then, he said to the man firmly: "I, Luodan, will never give in to anyone easily. No matter how difficult the road ahead is, I will persevere until I find my own way!"

At the same time, in the dark space on the other side, Luo Dan was fighting against the rampant demonic energy. He clenched his teeth, his eyes flashing with determination, as if he was fighting a silent battle with an invisible demon.

He created two clones, trying to distract the evil spirit and gain a chance of survival. However, no matter how hard he tried, the two clones seemed to be insignificant to the evil spirit, and they continued to wreak havoc without any harm. Luo Dan couldn't help but feel powerless. He knew that if he continued like this, he would sooner or later run out of energy and fall into a desperate situation.

Thinking of this, Luo Dan quickly calmed down, took a deep breath, and tried to calm his inner panic. He stood there quietly, staring at the demonic energy in front of him, and began to carefully observe every subtle change of it.

He discovered that there seemed to be space flowing in the demonic energy, like invisible whirlpools that were constantly swallowing up everything around them. This discovery made Luo Dan's heart move, as if he had grasped some key clue.

Then, as if he had thought of something, he quickly took a step back. He closed his eyes and felt the flow of spiritual energy around him. When he felt that something was quietly absorbing the spiritual energy he had burst out, he suddenly felt something was not good.

"Such a strange existence is hidden in this evil energy!" Luo Dan was secretly shocked. He knew that he had to be more careful in dealing with it, otherwise, if he was not careful, he might fall into an irretrievable situation.

He took another deep breath, adjusted his state, and prepared to face the next challenge. He knew that only by finding the weakness of the evil spirit could he hope to defeat it, otherwise, he would be lost forever in this dark space.

"What should I do now?" Luo Dan stood at the entrance of the dark cave, looking at the rolling black gas, and couldn't help feeling powerless. He clenched his fists, trying to find a way to break through the predicament, but the scene before him left him helpless.

At this moment, a mocking voice came from the depths of the cave. The voice was sharp and cold, like the most biting ice in winter, mercilessly piercing Luo Dan's heart, making him shiver involuntarily. "I am an evil cultivator from the ancient times. Those ordinary spiritual energies that you are proud of are nothing but child's play to me. They will not hurt me at all. On the contrary, they will become the source of my strength and be devoured by me one by one." The voice was filled with endless contempt and provocation, as if everything was under its control, making Luo Dan's anger burn like oil, instantly burning.

Luo Dan's face twitched with anger, and he clenched his teeth tightly, as if trying to suppress the gasp that was about to come out. His eyes were like torches, staring angrily at the slowly creeping black gas in front of him. The black gas seemed to contain endless evil and unknown, which made people feel afraid. He cursed in his heart, no wonder this thing looked black and dull, it turned out to have such a strange ability, good at swallowing spiritual energy, no wonder the attack he launched with all his strength before was like a stone sinking into the sea, without causing any ripples, let alone producing any effect.

He took a deep breath, trying to calm his anger and anxiety, and secretly thought of a countermeasure. Since ordinary spiritual energy was no threat to this evil cultivator, he had to try other methods. Luo Dan's mind quickly flashed through the various secret methods taught by his master, as well as some unique skills he had learned during his practice. He believed that there was always a way to break the defense of this evil cultivator and make him pay the price he deserved.

Thinking of this, Luo Dan's eyes became more determined. He slowly raised his hands and began to gather the spiritual power in his body. This time, he no longer launched an attack blindly, but condensed the spiritual power into thin and long light threads. These light threads intertwined in the air, forming a complex and mysterious spiritual power net. Luo Dan took a deep breath and swung his arm violently. The spiritual power net broke through the darkness like lightning and rushed straight towards the black gas.

A sharp hissing sound suddenly rang out in the cave, and the black gas seemed to feel threatened and began to roll violently. However, Luo Dan did not stop attacking. He continued to mobilize his spiritual power and increase the intensity of the attack. The air in the cave seemed to be torn apart by this powerful force, forming twisted space cracks.

In this fierce battle, Luo Dan and the evil cultivator fought a desperate battle. He kept trying various methods to find the evil cultivator's flaws. The evil cultivator was not to be outdone, and kept devouring the surrounding spiritual energy to try to resist Luo Dan's attack. The roars and roars of both sides echoed in the cave, and a thrilling battle began...

Thinking of this, Luo Dan took a deep breath, as if he wanted to suck all the thin air around him into his chest to strengthen his spirit. He slowly closed his eyes and devoted himself to the gathering of spiritual energy. Inside the cave, time seemed to freeze at this moment. Only the sound of the spiritual energy flowing in Luo Dan's body was heard, subtle but full of power. After a moment, he suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes flashing with determination and firmness, and a sword with cold light appeared in his hand. This sword, named "Frost Moon", was a treasure that his master personally passed on to him on the day he graduated. The sword body was as transparent as ice, and the sword energy was unparalleled. It was said that it was enough to cut off all the evil and darkness in the world.

"Since the sword energy can hurt you, I will try again!" Luo Dan roared, his voice echoing in the cave, shaking the dust on the stone wall. He held the "Frost Moon" in his hand, lightly touched the ground with the tip of the sword, and his figure was like a flash of lightning, bursting out at an astonishing speed in an instant, and killed again. Every move he made was full of power and beauty, the sword light was like a dragon, cutting through the darkness, and heading straight for the wanton black energy.

The black gas seemed to feel an unprecedented threat, and it began to roll violently, trying to avoid the fatal blow. However, Luo Dan's swordsmanship was too exquisite, and the sword light followed him like a shadow, tightly biting the black gas, not giving it the slightest chance to escape. Finally, after a fierce collision, the black gas let out a shrill scream, which was filled with fear, anger, and a hint of despair that was barely perceptible.

This scream made Luo Dan feel happy. He knew that he had found the weakness of this evil cultivator. The sword energy was the power that it could not resist. He sneered, his eyes became sharper, and he continued to attack the black gas fiercely with "Frost Moon" in hand. Every time the sword flashed, he could hear the painful groan from the black gas. The sound became weaker and weaker, as if foreshadowing that the evil cultivator was about to die.

Luo Dan knew that as long as he continued to attack and took advantage of the sword energy, he would be able to completely defeat the evil cultivator. His belief became stronger, and the sword in his hand became more powerful. The whistling of the sword energy and the wailing of the black air echoed in the cave. A contest between justice and evil was taking place here...

Therefore, Luo Dan did not relax, his eyes flashed with determination and perseverance, and he continued to wield the "Frost Moon" sword in his hand. The sword energy was like a rainbow, cutting through the darkness in the cave, and constantly slashing at the wanton black air. Every slash was accompanied by a deafening roar, as if it was lightning across the sky, illuminating this dark space. Every time the sword energy touched, the black air groaned in pain, and the sound was full of fear and despair, and Luo Dan's confidence doubled. (End of this chapter)
