Darkness Trap

The cultivators were all rushing towards the place Wu Shuhui was, but they were all caught off guard when a curtain of darkness descended where they were. With their sight hindered, they stopped from taking any unnecessary action. 

Their formation was quite interesting. They were banded together with five team members per team, in other words, their own members. It showed that even inside the Fire Labyrinth, there were some unresolved problems between them, that would not let them to fully cooperate with each other. 

The world was a cruel place, after all. They just witnessed how the almighty Blazing Phoenix Sect got destroyed from within by a betrayal. A colossus existence like that sect, reduced to mere ashes of what it was before. About fifty of their strongest figures died because of this conflict, reducing them to the bottom ranks, it is a number enough to shake their foundation. They are for sure, not the third strongest nation right now.
