"Mr. Lu, is it really you?"
Wei Xinghe couldn't believe it when he suddenly heard Lu Qing's voice.
He even suspected that he was hallucinating because he was between life and death.
"It's me, Patriarch Wei. Are you okay now?"
Lu Qing's soul fluctuations continued to appear.
Wei Xinghe then noticed that the power was actually coming from the light spirit talisman on his body.
He no longer had any doubts and sensed the movement behind him.
After a few jumps, he quickly reached the eaves of a house on the street next door, found an attic window, and climbed in.
As soon as he entered the house, Wei Xinghe's body froze.
I saw a thin figure lying on the bed in the attic. He looked haggard and was almost dead.
He understood that this was one of the citizens whose energy and spirit were sucked away when the formation was activated earlier.
Wei Xinghe clenched his palms and suppressed the anger in his heart.
Then he curled up his body, restrained his breath, and hid himself.
The situation was urgent and he could not afford to be more indignant.
The most important thing now is to inform Lu Qing of the situation in the provincial capital.
If he and the old doctor could arrive in time, perhaps the people in this city would still have a chance of survival.
Therefore, without too much time to sigh, Wei Xinghe quickly said to the jade talisman:
"Young Master Lu, something terrible has happened. The provincial capital city has been surrounded by a powerful evil cultivator who came from nowhere and has used a formation to besiege it.
That formation is extremely evil and can absorb people's energy and spirit. Many citizens in the city have already died because of it."
"Have you seen that evil cultivator?" Lu Qing asked.
“I only saw him once. The evil cultivator was very powerful. I didn’t even see his appearance clearly, but he instantly saw through the breath-suppressing talisman on my body.
If it weren't for the sword talisman that you, Mr. Lu, gave me, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to escape.
Mr. Lu, hundreds of thousands of citizens in the provincial capital are in danger now.
I'm afraid only you and Senior Chen can break the impasse and save them!"
Wei Xinghe lowered his voice and spoke quickly.
I just don’t know if it will be too late for Lu Qing and the others to arrive from Jiuli Village now.
"Master Wei, don't worry. I am outside the provincial capital now, but it will take me some time to break the formation, so I cannot enter the city for the time being."
"Mr. Lu, are you outside the city?" Wei Xinghe was overjoyed.
"Well, I just arrived and I'm trying to find a way to break the formation. Master Wei, please find a place to ensure your safety first, and leave the rest to me."
After Lu Qing finished speaking, he disconnected from the talisman.
Feeling that Lu Qing's soul consciousness had left, Wei Xinghe did not panic. Instead, his heart was filled with hope again.
He originally thought that even if Lu Qing knew the situation in the provincial capital, he might not be able to get here in time.
But unexpectedly, Lu Qing was already outside the city.
Wei Xinghe was still full of confidence in Lu Qing's methods.
Now that he is here, the crisis in this provincial capital will definitely be resolved.
So now, he just needs to protect himself and wait for Lu Qing to break the formation.
It was a pity that his Breath-Concealing Talisman was broken by that terrifying evil cultivator. Otherwise, relying on the miraculous effect of the Breath-Concealing Talisman, he could have found a random place and perhaps hidden there until Lu Qing broke the formation.
Just as he was thinking this, Wei Xinghe suddenly shuddered, and a sense of danger rose in his heart.
Without thinking, he jumped up and climbed out of the attic window.
boom!
Just as he got out, the entire attic was blown apart by a huge force.
The thin figure in the middle was blown to pieces.
"Father, you were hiding here. I had a hard time finding you."
Wei Zihao's voice rang out.
Wei Xinghe glanced at Wei Zihao, who was emitting black energy, and knew that his eldest son had been controlled by the evil cultivator.
There is no point in getting entangled with him here.
Without saying a word, he directly activated the light spirit talisman on his body. Green light flashed, and his speed increased to the extreme. In a few flashes, he disappeared in front of Wei Zihao.
Wei Zihao was unable to stop him again, his face darkened and a cold look appeared in his eyes.
The Demon Lord specifically asked him to capture his father, but he failed repeatedly. If he were held accountable, he would be afraid that he would not be able to give an account.
Thinking of this, the black runes on Wei Zihao's body began to move, and his aura became even more weird.
The next moment, he took a step forward, leaving a long afterimage.
Its speed also increased by several times, and it chased in the direction where Wei Xinghe fled.
Wei Xinghe felt the burst of energy behind him, and he felt both shocked and angry.
What shocked him was that he really couldn't imagine what kind of evil magic the mysterious evil cultivator had used.
It was able to make Zihao, who was still in the acquired realm, burst out with power that was no less powerful than his.
What made him angry was that as a warrior, Wei Xinghe knew that strength needed to be cultivated by himself.
For someone like Wei Zihao, who is still in the acquired realm, to forcibly control power far beyond his own realm, he must pay a price.
If this continues, the body is likely to collapse.
How could Wei Xinghe not be angry when that evil cultivator dared to turn his son into this state that was neither human nor ghost?
Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried, Wei Xinghe knew that he was helpless now.
The only hope is that Lu Qing can break the formation as soon as possible and defeat the mysterious evil cultivator.
Only in this way can Zihao regain his sanity.
Not wanting to engage in a meaningless battle with his son, Wei Xinghe had to speed up again and flee forward.
Suddenly, he sensed several powerful innate auras coming from the front.
…
After talking with Wei Xinghe and learning about the situation in the city, Lu Qing severed his mental connection with Qing Lingfu.
He began to focus his attention on the black formation light curtain in front of him, thinking about how to break the formation.
He had encountered an evil formation like this one that trapped and refined people's blood and essence once before.
When they were on their way to Zhongzhou, the Yinyue Sect had set up a similar formation in an attempt to refine all the martial arts masters from Yunzhou.
However, the formation set up by the Silver Moon Sect could only cover a small town.
Its power is far inferior to the powerful formation in front of it that can cover an entire state.
"The Ten Directions Blood-Dissolving Soul-Refining Formation was inherited from the Black Sky Demon Lord of the Tianyuan World..."
Lu Qing thought of the message that had appeared earlier and became thoughtful.
What is revealed here is so rich.
Whether it is the Tianyuan World or the Black Sky Demon Lord, they sound like very powerful existences.
And what is the relationship between the demon cultivators in this city and the Tianyuan World?
Lu Qing thought about it, but couldn't figure it out, so he put the matter aside for the time being.
The most urgent task is to find a way to break the formation in front of us.
Otherwise, when the formation is activated next time, many citizens in the city will be killed or injured.
Lu Qing freed his mind and carefully sensed the flow of formation power in the formation light curtain in front of him.
Due to the formation blocking his way, he was unable to sense the situation in the city.
But it is still possible to just sense the flow of formation power on the light curtain.
This Ten Directions Blood-Dissolving Soul-Refining Formation is much more powerful than the one he encountered in the Silver Moon Sect.
Any formation must have formation nodes.
As long as enough nodes are destroyed, the formation will collapse on its own.
Lu Qing inherited the Divine Talisman Sect's inheritance and had already cultivated to the [Yang Talisman] realm.
He himself can be called a master of formations.
Although this Ten Directions Blood-Dissolving Soul-Refining Formation is profound, it has been simplified countless times.
So it didn't take long for Lu Qing to discover several of the outermost formation nodes.
Without hesitation, he took out a bow and arrow from his Qiankun Yiqi bag.
At this time, the bow in Lu Qing's hand changed its appearance.
There are mysterious runes faintly visible on it, and precious light is overflowing, which looks very extraordinary at first glance.
However, Lu Qing has become addicted to using the Lihuo Ding to refine weapons during this period.
By the way, I also refined this precious bow again.
Not only were a lot of precious materials added, but several layers of restrictions were also refined into it, greatly improving its quality.
It became a true treasure-level magic bow.
"Let's see if your formation can block my arrows."
Lu Qing looked coldly as he took out a long arrow engraved with runes and put it on the bow.
Since the bow has been re-refined, the arrows are naturally no exception.
This arrow engraved with runes is a magic arrow specially refined by Lu Qing.
A single magic arrow is as precious as a magic weapon.
This is also the reason why Lu Qing was determined to get the Lihuo Ding.
With this Lihuo Sect's spiritual weapon, it was extremely convenient for him to refine things.
With this spiritual weapon, as long as the materials are supplied, he can continuously refine magical weapons and treasures.
Even Lu Qing has made great progress in his attainments in weapon refining recently.
Putting the arrow on the bow, Lu Qing began to pull the bow.
After he refined the bow into a magic weapon, its strength increased greatly, and even a strong man in the innate realm found it difficult to pull it open.
But for Lu Qing, whose physical strength has reached the point where his body is glowing with precious light, this amount of power is naturally no problem for him.
He didn't even need to take a horse stance. He just slightly separated his feet and exerted force with his arms. He easily pulled the precious bow, which was like a full moon.
Then, under the urging of his mind, the restrictions on the bow and arrow began to glow.
The surrounding spiritual energy was quickly gathered and poured into the magic arrow.
A powerful force is brewing within.
When the spiritual energy gathers to an extreme, the power in the magic arrow will be brewing to a point that is enough to make any innate realm person feel palpitations.
Lu Qing no longer hesitated and released the bowstring.
collapse!
A huge sound of a bowstring snapping shook the air around Lu Qing, causing it to explode directly.
Driven by the powerful force, the magic arrow suddenly turned into a stream of light and pierced through the air in front of Lu Qing.
It flew diagonally upwards towards the provincial capital city in front.
This time, Lu Qing still used the projectile method.
At the same time, a wisp of mind was also attached to the magic arrow.
The magic arrow flew high up, first climbing to a high point and then arriving above the provincial capital.
Then it turned around, the arrow pointed downward, and under the urging of Lu Qing's mind, it suddenly accelerated and rushed towards the provincial capital city below.
The secret technique of archery, falling from the sky!
As Lu Qing urged his mind, the restrictions within the magic arrow lit up, and the arrow accelerated layer by layer. By the time it reached the black formation light curtain, its speed had reached an extreme.
The power carried by the arrow is even more powerful.
Although the black light formation's light curtain was strong, it was still as fragile as a piece of paper in front of this arrow.
It was pierced by the magic arrow in an instant, and then a loud noise was heard from the city.
Lu Qing keenly noticed that the black formation light curtain in front of him paused for a moment and its power weakened a little.
"I seem to have overestimated the strength of this formation."
Lu Qing touched his chin, a little surprised.
Originally, he thought that it would take some effort to break through the black light curtain of the formation.
However, I didn't expect that a formation node could be destroyed so easily.
"Young Master, the power of your arrow is so great that even a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage might not dare to take it head-on.
This array light curtain is going to cover the entire state capital, the power is divided too much, so naturally it can't be stopped."
"Yan" said with a smile.
However, it was still surprised by the level of archery displayed by Lu Qing.
The arrow that Lu Qing shot just now was extremely exquisite.
Even across a large formation, one can accurately destroy the formation nodes.
This archery skill is comparable to that of a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage who specializes in archery.
How many abilities does this person have that it doesn't know about?
"Can't we stop it? This is a good thing for us."
A smile appeared on Lu Qing's face. With a thought, three magic arrows suddenly appeared in his hand and were placed on the bow together.
Now that he has already tested the defensive limit of the black formation light curtain, he doesn't need to test it further.
With the help of his mind, the three magic arrows immediately absorbed the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth again.
Just as Lu Qing was planning the second wave of attack.
In a luxurious mansion in the provincial capital, a roar suddenly rang out.
"Who dares to destroy the nodes of the formation I set up?"
A powerful aura burst out, directly blasting apart the room he was in, revealing the disheveled figure and a black bone sword floating in front of him.
What's even more strange is that blood-colored mist is constantly emerging around the black bone sword and then being absorbed into it.
This gave the bone sword an even more terrifying aura in the darkness.
"Master Demon, what happened?"
Sensing the movement here, several figures appeared, came to the room where the disheveled figure was, half-knelt on the ground, with a look of panic on their faces.
If Wei Xinghe were here, he would find that each of these figures had black runes on their faces and exposed arms and palms, similar to the ones on Wei Zihao's body, which was extremely strange and creepy.
"Someone is trying to destroy the formation. The attack is coming from outside the city. Go out immediately and kill them!"
As soon as he finished speaking, three loud noises were heard in the city.
The disheveled figure's body shook, and the black bone sword floating in front of him and the blood-colored mist gathering around it also became noticeably slower.
"Damn it, get out immediately. If you can't kill that man, bring your head to me!" said the figure with disheveled hair and a ferocious expression.
"Yes, Lord Demon!"
Several figures trembled, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.
He immediately disappeared in the mansion, and using his skills, he quickly rushed out of the city.
Only the figure with disheveled hair was left standing there, with a look of surprise and doubt in his eyes.
“Who on earth could so easily break through the nodes of the four-way Ten Directions Blood-Dissolving Soul-Refining Formation?
Even if I simplify this formation many times, it shouldn't be something that the natives of this world can comprehend!"
Just as the disheveled figure was wondering, suddenly, three loud noises were heard.
The disheveled figure shook again, and the black bone sword floating in front of him and the blood mist around him dissipated by one third.
