Standing silently beside Lin Yu, Shang Lin really wanted to say, "Although delaying for a while is a good idea right now, the evil spirits are going crazy because of the influence of the Blood Moon. Who are these people? They are just using the name of the Blood Moon to do despicable things. Once the Blood Moon is over, they can shift the blame to being influenced by the Blood Moon and continue to be their hypocritical and righteous people."

Clearly, Lin Yu shared the same thought as Shang Lin. He gritted his teeth, clenched his fists until his knuckles turned white from the force, and lowered his voice, "Sect Leader, do you think these shameless guys can hold out until the Blood Moon ends?"

Liu Nian took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down: "Don't panic, there will always be a way." He knew all too well what these people in front of him were really like, but maybe if he could delay, he could wait for rescue.

No sooner had Liu Nian finished speaking than another fierce attack was launched from the opposite side, with the momentum to raze their Divine Medicine Sect to the ground.

Lin Yu could no longer contain himself and broke free from Liu Nian's obstruction to rush over. However, before he could even touch her, he seemed to be blocked by an invisible wall and could not go any further.

The person on the other side was the same. When Lin Yu moved, Liu Nian shouted, "Lin Yu..." and then was so shocked by what she saw that she was speechless.

For a moment, an eerie silence fell over the surroundings, as if everyone had been frozen in time. Only the evil spirits continued to roam around, proving that the freeze was fake.

Shang Lin sighed silently in the dark, hoping that the Divine Medicine Sect hadn't been completely destroyed by these messy things, otherwise he would have really lost out this time.

Since arriving in the human realm, this is the first time I've ever set up a barrier. Unfortunately, my cultivation level is not high enough, and I need assistance. This assistance inevitably requires money, and it's burning through a lot of money!

However, Master Yuanyin said he would come to the rescue, but it is unknown when he will appear. It is really not appropriate for me to show myself. For now, I can only keep a close eye on him and show myself when the problem is solved.

Just as Shang Lin was pondering this, someone in the "frozen" scene finally reacted. One of them couldn't help but ask, "What... what's going on? Why are we separated?"

"Yes, yes, is it some kind of defensive formation from the Divine Medicine Sect?"

"How could there be such a defensive formation? If they had it, they would have used it long ago. Why would they wait until now?"

"Then what is this...?"

Shang Lin frowned slightly. He also wanted to ask what was going on. Did the cultivators in the human realm not know about barriers? Or were they not cultivators at all, but just a group of people who wanted to live forever?

Looking at Liu Nian and Lin Yu, as members of the Divine Medicine Sect, they seemed unaware of the situation either. But weren't they also cultivators, just on different paths?

At first, Liu Nian and Lin Yu didn't react. After a while, Liu Nian whispered to Lin Yu, "This, could it be, a barrier?!"

Lin Yu shook his head slightly. "I don't know. If it really is a barrier, then who made it?"

Liu Nian lowered her voice even further, "The person you're talking about!"

Lin Yu felt a chill run down his spine. "But... is this something a human could do? In all these years, I've only ever heard of it, never seen it before!"

Shang Lin listened to Liu Nian and Lin Yu's hushed conversation, his brows furrowing even more. In the end times of the human realm, are there truly no cultivators in the human realm who can set up a barrier?!

Shang Lin was somewhat frustrated. If there really wasn't any, it meant that cultivation resources in the human realm were even scarcer than he had imagined. Was spending money truly the only way out?

Shang Lin suddenly felt a tremor in his heart. He subconsciously looked up and saw the moon high in the sky. The blood moon was big, round, and eerie. The evil spirits immediately became even more frenzied, even crashing against the barrier.

Now Shang Lin dared not show himself even more. Moreover, the fact that he could stand safely under the blood moon was largely due to the concealment talisman he used. He subconsciously sealed the Dragon Spirit Tower.

Liu Nian and Lin Yu dared not linger any longer and hurriedly headed towards the inner hall. They needed to find a way to minimize the losses within the sect in the shortest possible time.

The evil spirits began to assault the barrier, and those who desired immortality also began to assault the barrier, as if breaking through this invisible barrier would grant them immortality.

Even with the invisibility talisman, Shang Lin didn't dare to push himself too hard. He would wait and see how long the barrier could hold out. He had to stay with Lin Yu, lest he lose his reward, which would be a huge loss!

In his haste to find Lin Yu, Shang Lin didn’t notice that any evil spirits that got close to him vanished instantly, as if bathed in sunlight.

The blood moon hanging high in the night sky cast an eerie red glow, revealing all evil spirits. Even the darkest aspects of ordinary people's hearts were magnified to an unlimited extent at this moment...

Shang Lin's body trembled slightly, his eyes gleaming with golden light under the blood moon. The skin on his chest began to burn, and hard scales appeared faintly, as if resonating with the power of the blood moon.

His breathing became rapid and heavy, and the pain and struggle in his heart were magnified infinitely at this moment. The light of the blood moon seemed to be able to penetrate Shang Lin's soul, arousing the wildness hidden deep in his heart that he himself was unaware of!

Shang Lin sat cross-legged on the ground, put a concealment talisman on himself, and then silently recited an exorcism incantation. He could not be affected by the blood moon, nor could he let the violent power in his heart dominate him.

He was Shang Lin, the sect leader of Yuntai Sect, a genius who had appeared only once in thousands of years in the cultivation world. He absolutely could not lose to demons and monsters. The mountain winds around him howled past, as if they were a call from ancient times.

Shang Lin clenched his fists, his nails digging deep into his palms. The power of the Blood Moon surged like a tide, assaulting his reason, but although golden light flashed in his eyes, he still tried his best to maintain his composure.

Just as Shang Lin was preoccupied with his own safety, the barrier was quickly shattered by the frenzied evil spirits and even more frenzied humans. These seemingly emotionless monsters rushed over in droves.

Shang Lin leaped up, dodging the oncoming crowd, while the evil spirits that rushed in front of him were instantly "evaporated" without anyone in the frenzied crowd noticing.

In fact, even Shang Lin himself did not realize that he was still trying to maintain his own identity, so much so that the servants who were sealed in the Dragon Spirit Tower by him and the God Lord all sensed his abnormality!

Hu Tangdi hurriedly squatted down in front of the Divine Lord and asked, "What's wrong with the Sect Master? What's his condition...?"
