Chapter 97 Another annoying guy from Shangqing Sect
Shen Yuyan was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat, her face was a little pale as she thanked him: “Thank you, Second Master Uncle.”
Li Xiaoran nodded slightly and looked around vigilantly: "There are many traps here, everyone please be careful."
At this moment, several figures slowly walked out from the shadows not far away.
It was the team from Shangqing Sect.
The leading female disciple, Qiao Tingting, had a beautiful appearance, but there was a hint of a sneer on the corner of her mouth.
Her second senior brother beside her, a young man with a slightly sinister face named Shangguan Zimo, was looking at the people from Qingling Sect with a scrutinizing gaze.
When his gaze swept over Xiaobai, who was protected by Li Xiaoran and Nangong Wentian, a barely perceptible hint of disdain and ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.
The competition between Shangqing Sect and Qingling Sect has always been fierce, and this competition was even more so.
Shangguan Zimo snorted in his heart, is a little brat worthy of such attention?
And it made my junior sister unhappy, damn it.
His eyes moved slightly, and he suddenly raised his hand, pointing to a pile of scattered, broken mechanical puppet wreckage that had long lost power not far behind the Qingling Sect.
An extremely obscure spell with an explosive nature silently penetrated into the wreckage.
“Boom…”
A violent explosion occurred suddenly.
The pile of scrapped puppet wreckage instantly turned into violent energy fragments and twisted metal torrents.
It was like a small metal storm, sweeping fiercely towards where Xiaobai and the others were.
This time the attack was fast and fierce, obviously intended to severely damage or even eliminate the Qingling Sect's team.
"Senior Brother Zimo, you..." Qiao Tingting exclaimed in feigned surprise, but there was no surprise in her eyes. Instead, there was a hint of pleasure in watching a good show.
"Despicable!" Li Xiaoran shouted angrily, and the spiritual energy in his body circulated wildly, trying his best to maintain and reinforce the defensive barrier in front of him.
The impact force of the explosion was far beyond that of the previous energy crossbow. The barrier vibrated violently and the light dimmed a little.
At this critical moment, the third senior brother Nangong Wentian, who had been silent and calm, finally moved.
His face was cold and he showed no sign of panic.
Several pills of different colors, emitting a strong medicinal fragrance, instantly appeared between the white and slender fingers.
"puff!"
The pill was crushed into powder directly under his fingertips.
The strange medicinal power spread.
At the same time, he quickly made a simple seal with his other hand, activating the remaining array patterns in the area under his feet that had not yet been completely destroyed.
The power of the medicine and the power of the remaining formation were miraculously combined under his guidance.
call……
An unusually rich white mist with a faint soothing aroma instantly rose up with them as the center.
The fog seemed to have life and quickly enveloped and wrapped the people from Qingling Sect completely.
The violent explosion shock waves and metal fragments crashed into the fog, like a drop in the ocean, and were quickly eliminated and dissolved.
When the fog dissipated a little, only some charred traces of the explosion were left on the spot. The four people from the Qingling Sect were unharmed, and even the corners of their clothes were not messed up.
Xiaobai blinked and sniffed: "Third Brother, this mist smells good."
Nangong Wentian touched her head, his eyes softened for a moment, but as he looked into the distance his gaze became cold again.
Almost at the same time, the fog was formed and the explosion was offset.
On the huge light curtain hanging high above the ruins of the Mechanical City.
The golden bar of light representing the progress of the Qingling Sect's formation repair suddenly leaped forward!
[Qingling Sect: Array repair progress 10%]
A line of small words appeared below the progress bar.
The entire ancient mechanical city ruins seemed to shake.
A tide of spiritual energy that was several times denser than before suddenly spread out to the entire ruins with the east array eye repaired by the Qingling Sect as the center. It then calmed down, then decayed, and finally turned into decay.
But under the stimulation of this spiritual energy tide, deep in the ruins, those mechanical puppets that were originally only moving sporadically or in standby mode suddenly lit up with dazzling red light in their eyes.
Their movements became faster.
Aggression multiplied.
Snap! Snap!
More mechanical puppets crawled out of the ruins and joined the riot.
The critical point of the first mission is triggered, and the puppets are in full-scale riot.
"Roar." Several intact puppets nearby roared and rushed over.
Li Xiaoran and Shen Yuyan immediately looked down at the jade tokens of their disciple status around their waists.
The jade token glowed slightly, and the score number on it was rapidly jumping and updating.
[Repair array progress 10%: get 1000 points]
[Defeat/resist 83 mechanical puppets (including explosion impact judgment): obtain 166 points]
[Current total score: 1166]
Li Xiaoran looked at the points and frowned slightly, obviously very dissatisfied with the sneak attack just now.
Shen Yuyan breathed a sigh of relief. Being able to get so many initial points, it was a pretty good start.
Only Nangong Wentian.
He just glanced at the number on the jade token, his expression still indifferent, as if the 1166 points had nothing to do with him.
But his deep eyes, without a trace of emotion, were accurately fixed on the young man named Shangguan Zimo in the Shangqing Sect team in the distance.
Dare you touch his junior sister?
very good.
The corners of Nangong Wentian's mouth curled up in a very shallow and cold arc.
He remembered it.
This debt will be recovered later with interest.
The fog dissipated.
The two groups faced each other from a distance, separated by the charred marks of the explosion.
The air was filled with the smell of gunpowder and a faint hint of sedative medicine.
Shangguan Zimo's face was so gloomy that water could drip out of it.
Qiao Tingting suppressed the surprise in her eyes and tried hard to maintain a proud expression.
Nangong Wentian's ability to turn the medicinal powder into mist really took them by surprise.
During this brief stalemate.
Xiaobai's big black eyes rolled around, and he spread out his short legs and ran towards a corner of the ruins in the southwest direction.
"Yeah, Piao Piao."
She seemed attracted by something shiny.
"Junior sister, don't run around." Li Xiaoran hurriedly reminded her, his heart tightening.
This place is weird everywhere, and it's too dangerous for a little kid to run around.
But Xiaobai seemed not to have heard it. His little hands had already pulled out a few palm-sized pieces of metal fragments covered with ancient patterns from under a pile of rubble.
There was a faint glow on the edge of the fragment, which was obviously not an ordinary object.
Shen Yuyan's eyes moved, and she quickly followed.
She squatted down and carefully took the fragments from Xiaobai's hand.
A soft light flashed on his fingertips as he carefully explored the patterns on it.
"This is the core component fragment of the ancient Yanjia, uncle." Shen Yuyan's voice was filled with a hint of surprise and solemnity.
She quickly put the pieces together.
"Although the spiritual pattern on it is incomplete, it seems to record some kind of directional information."
