Chapter 296 Temple Hunt
Outside the Heavenly God No. 1, the demonic beasts quietly crouched and guarded it. Half a day had passed, but they still showed no intention of launching an attack.
This allowed everyone who had been on tenterhooks to relax their tense nerves a little.
But at that moment, the monsters that had been surrounding them suddenly ran off into the distance, leaving everyone puzzled.
Yu Qianling watched the beast horde leave and asked in confusion, "Junior Brother, what's going on? Didn't you say they were probably going to wait until nightfall to attack?"
How would I know?
Suddenly, everyone heard a roar in the air. The white jade blood bat, which had been injured and fled, had recovered from its wounds and was now flapping its huge wings as it swooped down into the distance.
"What are they trying to do?" Xiao Huan asked疑惑地, then suddenly pointed into the distance and exclaimed, "Why are they all attacking the stone pillars?"
Upon hearing Xiao Huan's voice, Ye Luo also looked in the direction he was pointing. She saw that the stone pillar that had been attacked suddenly emitted a burst of golden runes, which violently sent nearby monsters flying.
That's all.
They continued their onslaught relentlessly, and in no time, the stone pillars that had stood there could no longer withstand the attack, collapsing one after another with a deafening roar.
"Not good!" Ye Luo's expression changed slightly, as if he had thought of something, and he said seriously, "These stone pillars are array stones, they are breaking the array!"
"Breaking the formation?!" Xiao Huan stammered in shock, asking, "You mean...you mean that great formation you were talking about?!"
Ye Luo had no time to answer him at this moment. Seeing that the demon beasts were making such a desperate gamble, it seemed that they had complete confidence in the thing that sealed the town.
What exactly is it?
Ye Luo felt a little scared.
"What should we do? It looks like the array stones are about to be destroyed!"
Watching the stone pillars fall one by one, as if a countdown to death was underway, some of the female disciples who were already on the verge of collapse began to sob.
Just after the last stone pillar fell, the sky over the secret realm suddenly darkened, and a fierce wind arose all around.
The golden light of the magic array on the ground flashed and disappeared, and the magic array that had been set up was obviously broken.
Suddenly the ground began to shake violently, and cracks gradually appeared, spreading outwards like a spider web from the vicinity of Tian Shen 1.
Then several spatial rifts appeared, and a magnificent and imposing palace slowly rose from the ground.
The most towering and majestic main hall appeared to have been forcibly cleaved in two. Although it looked devastated and broken, its former glory and grandeur were still undeniable.
Just then, a woman's unrestrained laughter rang out from the sky, "The Holy Temple has reappeared, I have returned!"
"who?!"
"Who is speaking?!"
Suddenly, the chilling laughter stopped. "Who? I am the Holy Maiden of Heavenly Feather, and today I will grant you a death of terror!"
No sooner had she finished speaking than a powerful force emanated from the temple's gate, piercing through the magic array on the Celestial One and sucking them all into the palace.
...
Ye Luo felt a sudden dizziness. The instant he landed, he summoned the Dragon Bone Whip to protect himself, preparing to face the sudden battle.
But when he opened his eyes, he was taken aback by the scene he had imagined.
At this moment, he was in a sea of roses. Looking into the distance, the roses stretched as far as the eye could see, their fiery red color resembling blood, swaying gracefully and exuding a captivating fragrance.
Groups of colorful butterflies fluttered and danced, creating a peaceful and serene atmosphere that was refreshing and invigorating, completely devoid of any murderous intent.
Ye Luo cautiously looked around and found that he seemed to be the only one there, with no trace of anyone else.
"What the hell is going on?"
He was a little confused, so he summoned two six-winged fire lizards, placed them on his shoulder, poked their heads, and said, "Help me sniff out the scents of the others, let's go find someone."
...
at the same time.
The people in other parts of the temple were not as lucky as Ye Luo.
At this moment, they were not only being hunted by those demonic beasts and evil spirits, but also being chased by strange vines, and were running for their lives in the huge palace.
Qingyu helped the injured Ji Xuan and led the disciples, making their journey extremely difficult. It was as if the creatures had eyes, as they encountered them wherever they went.
"Qingyu, come here quickly!"
At this moment, Feng Yue and Shi Li came to their aid, frantically cutting down the vines that were rushing towards them, and then retreated while fighting, escaping the dangerous area.
Qingyu put Ji Xuan down from her back, collapsed onto the ground covered in sweat, and gasped, "Why are there only the two of you? Where are the others?"
"I can't see it. It seems we've all been separated." Shi Li looked around warily and whispered, "Those vines are too strange. They look like the same ones that attacked you last time. If we get entangled, we're doomed!"
Upon hearing this, the members of the Illusionary Sound Sect turned pale. The bizarre scene from that day was still fresh in their minds, and they did not want to become monsters.
After a short rest, Qingyu and Fengyue led the way, while Shi Li carried the unconscious Ji Xuan on his back, leading the disciples of the Huanyin Sect forward.
The endless palace corridors were eerily empty. Shi Li suddenly felt that Ji Xuan on his back seemed to be getting heavier and heavier, so he weighed her down and panted, "Damn, just how big is this place? We're going to die of exhaustion if this keeps up!"
Feng Yue signaled everyone to stop and tried again to contact the people in Peach Blossom Valley using the communication device on his wrist, but unfortunately there was still no response and he failed again.
Qingyu sighed and said, "Perhaps there is an isolation barrier here, so you'd better not waste your time."
"Oh..." Feng Yue looked at Qing Yu beside him for a moment, took out a bottle of high-grade spiritual energy pills, stuffed them into Qing Yu's hand and quickly withdrew his hand, lowered his eyes and whispered, "You, you eat quickly, this was made by my junior brother, it can quickly restore spiritual energy."
Qingyu was taken aback. "Then you can keep it."
A hint of helplessness flashed in Feng Yue's eyes, and he clenched his fist beneath his sleeve. "I... I have no use for it..."
Watch out behind you!
Suddenly, the Demon Lord's voice came from within Feng Yue's sea of consciousness. Feng Yue's heart tightened, and he subconsciously pulled Qing Yu behind him. He saw a blood-red vine shoot out and condense into a long spear that stabbed towards him.
Feng Yue turned his head to narrowly avoid the attack, and upon closer inspection, he realized that everyone's feet were entangled by those strange vines.
"Damn it, why does this thing always follow us like a ghost!" Shi Li shouted, instantly protecting himself with a golden body, so that the vines could not do anything to him.
But the other disciples suffered the consequences, being entangled like cocoons in the blink of an eye. Qingyu, who had been panicking, quickly calmed down and threw out several fire-attribute talismans. After testing them, she found that they were indeed effective.
"Quickly, use fire-based spells to attack!"
The few disciples who escaped nodded. With the help of talismans and fire magic, sure enough, after a short while, the strange vines shrank back into the ground and disappeared from sight again.
Shi Li looked at the ground with trepidation, picked up Ji Xuan who was leaning against the wall again, and said angrily, "Damn it, they can catch up with us anywhere. These things are so annoying!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his neck was suddenly tightened and strangled. Caught off guard, he struggled painfully.
Suddenly, those eerie red vines sprouted wildly from Ji Xuan's body, instantly binding her and Shi Li tightly.
Several disciples who were caught off guard were suddenly pierced by the vines, and died after spitting out a mouthful of blood.
This scene terrified everyone, who screamed in alarm and scattered in all directions, summoning their magical artifacts to protect themselves.
