All members of the Beast Horn Sect were ready to escape, but this sudden change made them pause for a moment.
"We must rescue them. The hidden formation won't last long." The fourth elder said as he made countless green leaves grow out of his hair. The green leaves fluttered down and fell on the people, and everyone suddenly felt much more energetic.
"Ancestor, we must go. If the Ice Flame Ladybug reacts, we won't have the invincible golden membrane to protect us. We will either be frozen into ice or burned into ashes," the sect leader reminded.
Mei Ling quickly said, "No, Grandpa, we promised Cang Lin that we would protect his safety. Leaving like this would be a betrayal!"
"But, my niece, if we save him we might all die."
The ancestor raised his hand to stop the clan leader from speaking.
"Ling'er is right, and you are right too. Let's wait and see what happens. As long as we can grasp a glimmer of hope, we must rescue little friend Cang Lin."
The third elder said, "What a pity! If it were just him, entering the formation and dragging people out would be easy, but with three people, the difficulty increases."
"Kong Qing and Yuan Jun were not allowed to come, but they insisted on coming. They are of no use except causing trouble," someone complained.
At this time, the white-eyed lizard suddenly turned around and drilled back into the entrance of the Hanshu Cave. Only the ice flame ladybugs were still circling around the hidden formation. It seemed that their only target was Cang Lin, and they ignored everyone else.
At this time, a sneaky head popped out from the formation, his round face and head were wrapped in wet rags. He stretched out his hand and threw a handful of medicine powder into the air, and the ice flame ladybugs flew out of nowhere.
His big round eyes opened wide with excitement, and he waved again to try. Indeed, the ladybugs flew away for a few breaths wherever he waved.
"Grandpa Kong, your medicine powder is really effective. The Ice Flame Ladybug has been really driven away. We can get out now," Yuan Jun shouted.
"Yes, this is the beast repellent powder I stole from the sect's pharmacy."
When the Sixth Elder heard this, his face turned green. The sect's pharmacy was under his management, yet Kong Qing was able to steal the medicine.
Others were skeptical. Could the sect's beast-repelling powder really be that effective? Some who didn't believe it tried it, but it didn't work. That was even more bizarre!
At this time, Yuan Jun held the powder bag in one hand and waved it with the other, carefully walking out of the formation step by step. In the process of waving the powder at a high frequency, he opened up a way to survive, but soon ladybugs appeared again where he passed.
When he walked out of the range of the hidden formation, the Ice Flame Ladybugs were no longer there, because the ladybugs were still circling around the formation stubbornly.
Since there is a chance of saving them, there is no reason not to save them. The sect leader asked the others to move away first, and he, the ancestor, and the third elder waited for Cang Lin and Kong Qing to come out.
The second person to come out was Kong Qing. Originally, he wanted to come out with Cang Lin, but Cang Lin said that he was afraid that the target was too big and could not be covered by the powder. He also asked Kong Qing to go out before he felt at ease to go out.
So Kong Qing also returned to the third elder and others among the handfuls of medicinal powder.
In the end, Cang Lin was the only one left. As soon as Cang Lin stuck his head out, the ice flame ladybugs rushed over like a swarm of bees, and he had no time to sprinkle the powder.
So I had to go back in.
"Xiao Lin, ouch! What should I do?" Kong Qing slapped his thigh anxiously.
Mei Ling asked, "Grandpa, can you coat Cang Lin with your 'Invincible Gold Film'?"
The ancestor shook his head.
"No, he must come out before I can use my skills. Otherwise, no skills can enter the formation."
After hearing this, Yuan Jun became anxious and knelt down all of a sudden: "Ancestor, Sect Master, Third Elder, please save Xiao Lin, save him, please!"
Mei Ling quickly pulled him up: "Don't worry, Grandpa and the others will definitely find a way."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a loud "bang".
A big hole appeared under the hidden formation, and the formation was broken all of a sudden. Cang Lin was bitten on the calf by the white-eyed lizard and dragged into the hole.
The group of ice flame ladybugs also crawled into the hole.
"Xiao Lin——"
Kong Qing screamed miserably, his voice filled with anxiety, despair and madness.
It turned out that the white-eyed lizard saw that it could not break through the formation, so it wanted to find another way. It dug a hole under the formation, and then broke through the formation with brute force.
No one present had expected that this demon beast was so clever, and the ground where the formation was hidden was the weakest. Before everyone could recover from the incident, Kong Qing rushed out and jumped into the Hanshu Cave.
At this time, a group of people rushed over and saw red and blue spots of light flashing from time to time in the dark cave. The evil energy pouring out of the cave was sometimes chilling and sometimes scorching, making people feel deeply desperate.
At this time, Yuan Jun also stretched out his arms and legs and prepared to go down, but was stopped by everyone, who advised him not to be impulsive.
Yuan Jun was very annoyed: "Don't be impulsive, there are my brothers and my brother's grandfather in there, how can I not be impulsive?"
"You, on the other hand, said you were going to protect us, but in the end you still lost your life."
The leader said unhappily: "We said we wanted to protect Cang Lin's safety, but this change was not something we could have predicted."
"If you can't guarantee it, don't ask for help. We help with morality, not with your life."
After saying this, Yuan Jun was already in tears.
The old ancestor sighed and said, "My dear friend, I am truly sorry. I did not expect this to happen. The hidden formation was originally meant to save your lives, but I did not expect it to harm him. I will try my best to find a way to save them."
At this time, Mei Ling came over and said, "Grandpa, let me in. I will try my best to find them and bring them back."
