Under the tense gaze of Chen Shaorong and the others, the blurry, transparent phantom outline stepped out of the array's range without attracting the slightest attention from the Purple Scorpion Demon, and slowly approached Youminglan.
Upon seeing this, Chen Shaorong and the others were overjoyed. They knew that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, they would surely acquire the Netherworld Orchid.
Upon seeing this scene, Chen Xue's expression darkened even more. It turned out that Chen Shaorong had specially invited the old man surnamed Wei for this very moment!
This matter has probably been planned for a long time... It seems she was too naive, thinking that her cousin would be more trustworthy.
But now I understand that the struggle for the right path is the most ruthless!
Next, without any surprise, the old man surnamed Wei quietly took away the Netherworld Orchid, without attracting the slightest attention from the Purple Scorpion Demon.
Although the three purple scorpion elves were somewhat intelligent, they were at most equivalent to human children. At this moment, they were constantly attacking the formation and were completely unaware of the movements behind them.
The blurry, transparent phantom outline began to return to the formation.
Chen Shaorong immediately stepped forward, his face beaming with barely suppressed joy.
Even the attention of the woman surnamed Liu, dressed in palace attire, was largely diverted to her.
At this moment, Lin Xiuyuan opened his eyes, a sharp glint flashing in them, and suddenly retreated.
With a thought, streaks of white light shot up from not far away.
"court death?"
The woman surnamed Liu, dressed in palace attire, reacted extremely quickly, her expression turning grim. The blue silk ribbon that had been floating in the air was sent flying directly down.
However, Lin Xiuyuan was already prepared. At this moment, he threw out several talismans, forming an earthen wall and a water shield to defend.
Chen Shaorong looked over, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes, but he didn't take it to heart. With the woman surnamed Liu in palace attire there, how could Lin Xiuyuan possibly cause any trouble?
Even in the secret realm, it was not an easy task for him to overpower the woman surnamed Liu in palace attire. She was already a peak expert in this realm, and Lin Xiuyuan, a mere talisman master, was no match for her.
Not to mention, there are several other people with them. How could Lin Xiuyuan possibly be a match for them? He'd be courting death!
Chen Shaorong glanced at him, feeling surprised and inexplicably uneasy, so he quickened his pace and walked towards the old man surnamed Wei.
But, the next moment, something completely unexpected happened.
Lin Xiuyuan retreated rapidly, briefly using the talisman to resist the attack of the woman in palace attire surnamed Liu. However, the white feather needles he activated did not go towards the woman in palace attire surnamed Liu.
The white feather needles flew directly toward Wei Xuemao.
Upon seeing this, Wei Xuemao couldn't help but sneer and said, "Fellow Daoist Lin, it seems you want to capture me, making me, Sixth Master, hesitant to act."
"That's a good idea, very decisive and bold. But have you considered that although we are both spirit masters, your aura is much weaker than mine? Where do you get the confidence to attack me? It's laughable!"
Wei Xuemao, his face full of disdain, directly activated his spirit shield to defend against the attack, and another spirit sword burst forth with sword light, whistling out.
In an instant, the sword lights seemed to have struck several white feather needles, deflecting them away.
At this moment, a mocking look appeared on Wei Maoxue's face, and he said with a hint of ridicule, "You really overestimate yourself, Fellow Daoist Lin. Is that all?"
However, before he could finish speaking, the five white feather needles that had just been flung away suddenly began to flash with brilliant golden light.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
In an instant, terrifying spiritual energy fluctuations surged forth, and dazzling golden light burst forth continuously, falling at breakneck speed.
This sudden turn of events left Wei Xuemao with no time to react.
Lin Xiuyuan was well-prepared for this attack, deliberately wrapping the base of the white feather needle with a talisman and using the flashing white light to conceal it, making it virtually undetectable.
At least with the relatively weak divine sense of the Qi Refining stage, it is difficult to detect. Only with the divine sense strength of the Foundation Establishment stage can it be seen through at a glance.
Caught off guard, the spirit shield was instantly struck by the golden sword.
With a "bang," the spiritual light shattered in an instant. The golden sword paused abruptly as it pierced through, its sharp blade hovering over his neck.
"This...don't kill me, Fellow Daoist Lin, I, I..." Wei Maoxue's face turned deathly pale instantly. He never expected that Lin Xiuyuan could counterattack him so quickly.
He had initially scoffed and mocked Lin Xiuyuan, thinking he was overestimating himself... but now, the sharp aura of the golden sword hanging over his neck was so clear that he felt the breath of death!
In an instant, it shattered all his spirits.
Wei Maoxue felt a sharp pain in his neck, and a chill spread from there. Fear instantly filled his heart, and his eyes couldn't help but show terror and fear. His disdainful expression had turned into pleading.
Lin Xiuyuan glanced at him indifferently, then turned around and whispered, "Stop! Senior Wei, you'd better stop. If you hand over the Netherworld Orchid to Young Master Chen, don't blame me for killing him immediately."
This sudden turn of events, where Wei Maoxue was subdued in the blink of an eye, left everyone stunned, their faces showing astonishment and great surprise.
I never expected things to turn out this way!
In the blink of an eye, Wei Maoxue was suppressed? With just a few talismans?!
Although they had discovered along the way that Lin Xiuyuan's talismans were very powerful, his other combat abilities, like his aura, were quite weak...
As long as one is determined to resist, and is not immediately locked down by a large number of talismans, such a talisman master is not to be feared at all.
For a moment, they didn't notice what had happened before, and at this moment they couldn't understand how Wei Maoxue, who was clearly a cut above, could be instantly suppressed by Lin Xiuyuan.
Chen Xue, who was slumped on the ground with a disheartened expression, suddenly brightened up when she saw this scene. A surge of excitement welled up in her heart, and she quickly took out a few pills and swallowed them immediately.
