The moment the restriction on the tombstone was undone, Zhuo Wen immediately entered the tombstone restriction and disappeared from where he stood.At this moment, the masked man stepped into the tombstone. Just as he was about to chase after Zhuowen, the tombstone under the tombstone suddenly split open. A huge hand reached out from the tombstone and grabbed the masked man's feet."A restriction?"The man with the ghost face mask did not panic. His eyes emitted a sword will that soared to the heavens. The giant hand that was grabbing his feet completely collapsed under his gaze that was filled with sword will.However, Zhuowen was delayed by the huge hand for a moment. He managed to pull away from the masked man."These are just small tricks. You still can't escape."The man with the devil mask smiled coldly. He stepped on the void with his right foot and his entire body turned into a sword. He broke through the layers of the void and swept towards Zhuo Wen in an instant. The distance between the two of them was immediately shortened.Zhuo Wen's gaze grew colder. As he fled, he used the Devouring Curse Restriction to continuously use the restrictions on the road to obstruct the masked man.However, it was a pity that the masked man was too strong. Not a single restriction was able to trap the masked man. The restriction was only able to make the masked man's figure pause for a moment.Cold sweat started to flow incessantly from Zhuo Wen's forehead while his gaze was filled with gloominess. He originally thought that the restrictions here would be able to stop the masked man, yet he noticed that it was all in vain.Just like this, the two of them chased and fled again. They quickly approached the seven-colored vortex in the center of the continent.Behind the seven-colored vortex, a round eyeball could be vaguely seen. This eyeball was similar to an ordinary person's eye. The pupil was pitch-black and 45% of the eye was white.Through the gaps of the seven-colored vortex, the eyeball suddenly noticed Zhuowen who was constantly fleeing. Its pupils shrank in an extremely human-like manner. It actually showed a rare trace of dependence and doubt.At this moment, Zhuowen was only a hundred meters away from the seven-colored vortex. He could even feel that the surrounding space was faintly distorted. This distorted space was caused by the seven-colored vortex.In this distorted space, Zhuowen's speed suddenly slowed down. However, the masked man chasing behind him was not affected at all.Whoosh!Soon, the masked man quickly caught up to Zhuowen. He bent his right wrist and the long sword flashed with a dazzling cold light in the air. It slashed towards Zhuowen's waist.A chill suddenly rushed from Zhuowen's feet to the top of Zhuowen's head, causing Zhuowen to involuntarily tremble.Zhuowen gritted his teeth and summoned the Green Dragon Palace again. It was like a huge mountain.The masked man's eyes exploded with coldness. The long sword in his right hand sped up and instantly cut through the void. He said coldly, "Immortal Technique Heaven Slashing!"The sword cut through the void and once again slashed out a sky-breaking sword Qi. It hit the surface of the Green Dragon Palace. Then, Zhuowen groaned. His right hand pressed against the surface of the Green Dragon Palace. He retreated continuously until he stopped more than ten meters away from the seven-colored vortex. He spat out a mouthful of blood.Ding ding ding!The man with the ghost face mask took advantage of the opportunity to pursue and attack. He took a step forward and slashed out three times in a row. The three sword lights swept over and bombarded the top of the Azure Dragon Hall. It actually separated the Azure Dragon Hall, and the man with the ghost face mask took advantage of the gap when the Azure Dragon Hall was separated to stab with his sword, aiming for Zhuo Wen's vital point.The tip of the sword emitted a powerful milky-white sword light. Zhuowen's pupils constricted as he stared at the incoming sword light. He wanted to retreat, but the sword light's powerful Qi locked onto him, leaving him no time to dodge.Zhuowen summoned the First and Ninth Yang Dao Swords. At the same time, he used the Devouring Curse to its limit. However, all of his actions were useless against the powerful sword light. Almost all of his attacks were blocked by the sword light. He was unable to stop the powerful sword light.At that moment, Zhuowen felt an unprecedented sense of danger. The shadow of death completely enveloped him."Zhuowen, leave this to me and the fox. This person is too strong. Only the two of us can take action."Xiao Hei sighed gently in his sea of consciousness. Origin energy began to boil within him while Cheng Huang held the Fuxi Cauldron. He was ready to attack as well. The two of them could sense that Zhuowen was in danger. If they did not take action, Zhuowen might die.Once Zhuowen died, the two of them would be finished as well. As a result, they were forced to take action. Even if they had to exhaust their Origin Energy, they had to protect Zhuowen.However, just as Xiao Hei and Cheng Huang were about to take action, a sharp black bolt of lightning suddenly shot over. It shot out from behind Zhuowen and slammed into the sword light.Crackle!Crackle! The moment the black bolt of lightning struck the sword light, countless strands of black lightning rapidly spread across the entire sword light. Afterwards, the sword light directly dispersed under the entanglement of the strands of lightning.The moment the sword light dispersed, the masked man's eyes narrowed to the size of needles. He stared fixedly at the black bolt of lightning. His originally calm eyes finally revealed an intense change.The black bolt of lightning was extremely sharp. After devouring the sword light, it was completely unharmed. It directly shot towards the masked man, causing the air to crackle as it passed by.The masked man hurriedly retreated. He wielded his sword in his right hand and swung it again and again. Strands of sword light gathered into a huge crescent-shaped sword light that instantly slammed into the black bolt of lightning.Rumble!The sword light erupted with dazzling light the moment it collided with the black bolt of lightning. It actually managed to block the bolt of lightning.However, the sword light did not last for very long before it collapsed. The black bolt of lightning shot out once more. It was like a specter in the night. Although it seemed slightly dim, it was still as sharp as before.The masked man's eyes were filled with graveness. He retreated once more, retreating several tens of thousands of meters away. He wielded his sword in his right hand as he formed a seal with his left hand and suddenly pressed it against the blade."Immortal Technique, Chaotic Sword Cutting the Sky!"As he spoke, the masked man quickly swung his sword nine times. Nine strands of sword Qi descended from the void in a chaotic manner and crashed into the black bolt of lightning.Bang! Bang! Bang!Bang! Nine strands of sword Qi superimposed on one another. Their power actually underwent a qualitative change. When they collided with the black bolt of lightning, countless continuous roars resounded, causing the entire fragment to quake. The space within a few thousand meters suddenly turned into a black hole.Looking at this scene, Zhuowen's eyes were filled with shock. At the same time, he was extremely puzzled. Where did the black bolt of lightning come from? Moreover, it seemed that the black bolt of lightning was helping him.Thinking of this, Zhuowen could not help but turn around. Then his eyes were fixed on the colorful vortex. In the colorful vortex, he saw a round eyeball looking at Zhuowen with confusion and attachment. This made Zhuowen involuntarily take a few steps back."What is this?" Zhuowen whispered with a grave look.Bang! Bang! Bang!Suddenly, the whole fragment shook even more violently. Even Zhuowen staggered a little. The fierce black bolt of lightning was finally annihilated under the bombardment of the nine strands of sword Qi.The masked man, on the other hand, was filled with a murderous aura. He rushed out from the dust with a long sword in his hand and his hair dancing in the wind.Zhuowen's eyes turned cold. The moment he was about to take a defensive posture, the eyeball behind him showed a trace of displeasure. Immediately, three black bolts of lightning flashed out of the eyeball's pupil.These three black bolts of lightning were exactly the same as the previous one. The aura they revealed was not much weaker than the previous one."The black bolt of lightning was released by this eyeball?"Zhuowen could not help but exclaim in surprise. He stared at the eyeball behind him with bright eyes. Perhaps because it had completely released three black bolts of lightning, the eyeball seemed a little tired.On the other hand, the expression of the person with the ghost face mask, who had rushed over, changed drastically the instant the three black lightning bolts rushed over. Without even thinking, he immediately turned around and fled.The black lightning just now had forced him to use his strongest immortal technique, the Chaotic Sword Severing the Heavens. Now that three black lightning bolts had burst out at the same time, it was not something he could resist at all. Therefore, he decisively gave up on chasing Zhuo Wen and chose to flee.The person with the ghost face mask was extremely fast, and he quickly disappeared from the boundary of the fragment continent. The three black lightning bolts stopped the moment they reached the edge of the fragment continent. With a hiss, they returned to the eyeball one after another.At this moment, the eyeball slowly turned around. Its dark pupils were facing Zhuowen. Zhuowen could not help but take a few steps back. His scalp was numb.If this eyeball could force the masked man to retreat, then it would be easy for this eyeball to kill him. Therefore, before he knew the purpose of this eyeball, Zhuowen did not dare to move at will.Just as Zhuowen was secretly afraid of this eyeball, it narrowed its eyes and let out a cheerful hiss. It swept around Zhuowen and lingered around Zhuowen. It seemed to be very happy."Hmm?What's going on?This eyeball … "Looking at the strange behavior of the eyeball, Zhuowen was surprised.Then, the eyeball fell on the back of Zhuowen's hand and intimately touched the back of his hand. Immediately, it gave Zhuowen a human-like look toward the colorful vortex in front of him, as if urging Zhuowen to enter the colorful vortex."This eyeball wants me to enter the colorful vortex?"Zhuowen frowned slightly, but his heart was hesitant. The colorful vortex did not look simple. He did not know if he would be in danger if he entered.However, the eyeball in front of him could force the man with the ghost face mask to retreat, and the power of the black lightning was too great, which made him very afraid. If he did not follow the instructions of the eyeball, he did not know if it would bring about a fatal disaster."Boy, go in and take a look. This eyeball does not look malicious. If it wants to kill you, it will be easy." Xiao Hei's voice suddenly sounded in Zhuowen's mind.

The moment the restriction on the tombstone was undone, Zhuo Wen immediately entered the tombstone restriction and disappeared from where he stood.

At this moment, the masked man stepped into the tombstone. Just as he was about to chase after Zhuowen, the tombstone under the tombstone suddenly split open. A huge hand reached out from the tombstone and grabbed the masked man's feet.

"A restriction?"
