"Do you guys want to blame me for letting that kid go earlier?"
Maybe it was because the Falling Stars Hall was too famous, or maybe it was because Hua Wuren's cultivation was too high.
When these words were spoken, not a single person uttered a single word.
Hua Wuren looked around and smiled coldly.
"If you're capable, you can enter the thick fog to find that kid. I have no objections."
Hua Wuren's words finally angered everyone. Someone stepped forward and snorted.
"If you hadn't been careless and made a bet with that kid, he wouldn't have had the chance to hide in the thick fog."
"That's right."
As soon as the man in the attire of the Darkstar Hall finished speaking, another person walked out.
This person was Qiao Shanyuan from the Falling Stars Hall.
"Fellow Hua, it's all your fault. If you had killed that kid with a single strike, this wouldn't have happened."
"If that kid hadn't gotten the Divine Arm of the Ruler, he would have died in the fog."
"If he had gotten the Divine Arm of the Ruler and left from the other side …"
At this point, Qiao Shanyuan's voice came to an abrupt halt as the disciples of the Fallen Star Hall behind him took a step forward in unison.
Seeing this, Hua Wuren's pupils shrank. Zhou Yunsheng and Mu Fengxiu, who were on the side, came to his side and stared at the crowd.
"If that's really the case, you'll have to take responsibility for this!"
With one person taking the lead, others followed suit.
All of a sudden, all sorts of comments about Hua Wuren were heard.
Although the voices were different, the meaning was the same.
They were all blaming Hua Wuren for messing around with Wang Yan earlier. They should have killed Wang Yan with one palm strike. That way, such a thing would not have happened.
If they couldn't get the Divine Arm of the Ruler, Wang Yan wouldn't have it either.
But now, Wang Yan had entered the thick fog. If he got the Divine Arm of the Ruler and left successfully, wouldn't they have wasted their time waiting here?
Hua Wuren didn't say a word, but the coldness in his eyes became more intense.
The terrifying aura that had been hidden for a long time slowly rippled out.
It was as if a ferocious beast that had been sleeping for thousands of years was slowly awakening.
When this ferocious beast completely awakens, it will be the day when the sun and moon lose their light and the world loses its color.
This faintly discernible aura was extremely terrifying, indicating that Hua Wuren was on the verge of exploding.
"What, could it be that you want to fight?"
Qiao Shanyuan sneered and stared at Hua Wuren fearlessly as he sensed this faintly discernible aura.
If Hua Wuren attacked him, it would mean that the battle between the Falling Star Hall and the Falling Star Hall had officially begun.
After all, in this expedition into the White Bones Forest, every single one of the leaders of the three halls represented the Sect behind them.
"You're not worth my time."
With a snicker, Hua Wuren shook his head and stepped forward.
In an instant, everyone's expressions changed.
This was because Hua Wuren was less than a meter away from the thick white fog!
"Senior Brother!"
"Senior Brother!"
Zhou Yunsheng and Mu Fengxiu spoke one after another, their faces filled with disbelief.
"Don't worry, I won't risk my life."
With his back facing Zhou Yunsheng and Mu Fengxiu, Hua Wuren shook his head and stared at the thick white fog with his narrow eyes.
After a while, he suddenly raised his eyebrows.
A smile appeared on his chiseled and handsome face.
"Everyone, I believe that the thick white fog will disperse in no time."
As soon as he said this, everyone's expression changed slightly.
Some were eager to give it a try, while others sneered and looked at him mockingly.
"Look, isn't the thick white fog a little different from when we first came here?"
Everyone looked towards the direction of the voice. After a while, exclamations could be heard.
"If that's the case, the thick white fog is much thinner than when we first came here!"
"At this rate, I'm afraid the thick white fog will disperse in no time?"
"Shouldn't be wrong. Let's just wait patiently …"
Right then, Zhou Yunsheng took a step forward and stood behind Hua Wuren.
"Senior Brother."
"Yes, it's true."
As if he knew what Zhou Yunsheng wanted to say, Hua Wuren said this without turning his head.
Then, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he sat cross-legged less than a meter away from the thick white fog.
Hua Wuren's action stunned the rest of the crowd, but they quickly followed suit.
After all, the closer they were to the thick white fog, the faster they would be able to rush into it.
In an instant, all the experts that had gathered here sat cross-legged less than a meter away from the thick white fog.
Thousands of people did the same action, and the scene was spectacular.
No one spoke at this moment. Everyone was conserving their energy and closing their eyes to meditate.
Once the thick white fog completely dissipated, it would be the time for them to move out.
Time slipped away silently, and three days passed just like that.
Within three days, the originally thick white fog had become extremely thin.
Everything within the fog could be seen clearly.
It was no longer like before, where one could only see a few feet away.
…
"Phew …"
Wang Yan let out a sigh of relief and slowly opened his eyes. There was an unprecedented heat in his eyes.
At this moment, a pair of black eyes as deep as the night was like a pair of divine lamps, radiating light in all directions.
For fifteen days, he had used the Sky Burial Divine Rune to absorb a massive amount of Star Power.
Wang Yan had broken through to the peak of the Tenth Star Refining Realm from the Second Level of the Star Refining Realm!
He was only one step away from the Star Condensing Realm!
"Should I condense the Star Power?"
Wang Yan murmured to himself. In the end, he shook his head and gave up the idea of condensing the Star Power.
As his cultivation continued to break through, the difficulty of condensing the Star Power through the Star Condensing Technique would greatly increase.
Every time before breaking through to the next level, Wang Yan would choose to compress and merge the Star Power.
However, the process was extremely long and difficult.
Not only did it require a certain amount of time, but it also required a massive amount of Star Power.
Before this, every time Wang Yan compressed and merged the Star Power, he would consume a massive amount of Star Guiding Stones.
This also caused Wang Yan to constantly kill people, rob storage rings, and obtain a large amount of Star Guiding Stones, but it still could not make up for the consumption of Star Power.
This was a rare opportunity. Wang Yan did not want to waste time compressing and merging the Star Power.
"Let's break through to the Star Condensing Realm first."
After making up his mind, Wang Yan tilted his head and looked behind him.
Yun Zhi was still sitting cross-legged with her eyes closed.
But the aura emitted from her body was stronger than a few days ago, as if she could break through to the next level at any time.
After thinking for a while, Wang Yan withdrew his gaze and slowly closed his eyes.
At this moment, the number of Star Power in his Dantian had reached 109,999, just one more to break through to the Star Condensing Realm!
