Just to be on the safe side, Shang Lin took out a concealment talisman. Although he wanted the benefits, he couldn't disregard the danger to himself and his servants!
Moreover, with so many people besieging the Divine Medicine Sect, Shang Lin didn't want to show his face. He was just an ordinary high school student and didn't want to cause himself unnecessary trouble.
Shang Lin secretly made plans in his mind, and then his body moved like a nimble cat, silently sneaking into the Divine Medicine Sect. Then he was stunned by the scene in front of him.
Inside the Divine Medicine Sect, there were corpses, wounded, and various magical artifacts shimmering with light, along with layers upon layers of evil spirits, creating a dense and swarming atmosphere.
Shang Lin frowned subconsciously. He knew that there were quite a few cultivators, reclusive sects, and reclusive masters in the human world, but this was the first time he had ever seen such a chaotic battle.
This isn't about stealing the Longevity Pill; it's about wiping out the Divine Medicine Sect! No wonder Lin Yu offered such a generous reward; compared to being wiped out, the reward is nothing.
Suddenly, a powerful surge of spiritual energy emanated from the area, and Shang Lin's heart tightened immediately. He saw a man covered in blood, wielding a long sword, charging around like a wild horse.
Swords clashed, sparks flew, and spiritual energy was in disarray—it was a fight to the death! The people surrounding him also had ferocious faces, wielding their weapons with no less ferocity than the evil spirits.
Shang Lin instinctively felt that the blood-stained young man was Lin Yu. He hesitated for a moment, but still rushed forward and grabbed the other's trembling right wrist.
A surge of spiritual energy instantly flowed into Lin Yu's body, simultaneously blocking an attack from another person. After that, his body felt as if it no longer belonged to him.
Lin Yu felt like a puppet on strings, being manipulated by someone to slaughter everyone, as if he were on an ancient battlefield, being chased and intercepted by countless people amidst the cacophony of voices and the splatter of blood...
He seemed unable to see or hear, and his exhausted body was forcibly infused with spiritual power, allowing him to charge left and right through the crowd, with enemies falling wherever he went.
The battle situation changed in an instant. The enemy's momentum weakened significantly. Lin Yu then glanced at them and saw that those who had fallen were all alive, but he didn't know why they couldn't move, as if they were dead!
At this moment, no one in the Divine Medicine Sect retreated; everyone fought for their sect. However, not everyone was as fortunate as Lin Yu, who had Shang Lin secretly helping him. Some were troubled by evil spirits, others were injured by humans…
Those disturbed by evil spirits either go mad or are devoured; those injured by humans either continue fighting if lightly wounded, or collapse and die if severely injured.
Shang Lin, the master of this puppet, continued to help the "puppet" rescue his fellow disciples. Since he was already here, he might as well save as many as he could! However, after this battle, even if the Divine Medicine Sect was not completely wiped out, it was practically the same as being wiped out!
Liu Nian's situation wasn't much better than Lin Yu's at the moment. In terms of martial arts alone, he was not as strong as Lin Yu, but he knew more magic techniques, so he could be on par with Lin Yu.
Lin Yu, the "puppet on a string," stumbled and rushed towards Liu Nian as soon as he saw her. "Sect Leader, it seems like someone is helping me in secret, but these scumbags, who are even more wicked than evil spirits, won't let us go! What should we do?"
Liu Nian frowned deeply, her eyes revealing determination. "Lin Yu, don't panic! We'll guard this place. You should quickly take the treasures from the sect and leave. As long as you're alive, you can always find a way out in the future."
Lin Yu suddenly looked at Liu Nian as if he were an idiot, "Sect Leader, do you even believe that yourself? There are so many of us in our own sect, and we can't even protect it. How can I, alone, leave with the treasure? And find a way out later???"
Liu Nian, “…”
He naturally didn't believe it, but at this moment, he couldn't think of any other way. Although the number of enemies around him had decreased, the remaining ones were closing in step by step.
The evil spirits that had not previously entered the Divine Medicine Sect now surged in as the exorcism talisman was destroyed and the moon rose higher, creating a cacophony of noise.
However, Liu Nian suddenly whispered, "Didn't you just say that someone is helping you in secret? Then let him take you away."
However, before Liu Nian could finish speaking, the remaining people gathered in front of him again, glaring angrily. "Sect Leader Liu, let me give you a piece of advice: you should stop resisting. All we want is the Longevity Pill. Just give it to us."
Liu Nian looked around and shouted, "Our Divine Medicine Sect has never provoked any trouble. Don't push your luck today! Besides, won't you all need the medicinal herbs from our Divine Medicine Sect for your future cultivation? Why do something so foolish as to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs?"
However, the group, completely caught up in the moment, responded to Liu Nian with even fiercer attacks and unrestrained mockery, no matter what he said.
"Liu Nian, stop making futile struggles. If the Divine Medicine Sect doesn't hand over the Longevity Pill today, it will surely perish!"
"Hand over the elixir of immortality."
"Hurry up and hand it over!"
Previously, Shang Lin had only seen Lin Yu's general description on his phone and couldn't imagine the situation at the time. Now that he was there in person, he realized just how huge the gap was between written descriptions and personal experience!
Liu Nian dodged an attack, brandishing her longsword; her stamina was clearly comparable to Lin Yu's earlier. But at the same time, several more people attacked from behind, immediately putting Liu Nian in grave danger.
At this moment, Lin Yu, the "puppet on a string," rushed over again, blocking numerous deadly attacks for Liu Nian, and at the same time, struck the person who had been shouting the loudest.
Upon seeing the person's face clearly, Shang Lin was slightly stunned for a moment. This person actually resembled Cheng Qiao by seven points. Even if he wasn't a close relative, he was still a blood relative.
Upon being successfully rescued, Liu Nian felt a tremor in his heart and subconsciously glanced at Lin Yu. At this moment, he was convinced of what Lin Yu had said—that someone was secretly helping them. But who was this person? Why didn't they show their true face?
At this moment, Lin Yu gritted his teeth and said, "Sect Leader, let's fight them to the death!"
Liu Nian grabbed Lin Yu, who was about to continue charging, and said, "Don't be reckless." They were already at their limit, and these people would definitely not give up until the Blood Moon ended.
Lin Yu was getting anxious. "These greedy guys won't let us go. Rather than waiting to die, we might as well fight them."
Liu Nian glared at Lin Yu and said in a low voice, "Fight? What are we going to fight with? Such recklessness will only lead to the destruction of the Divine Medicine Sect! We need to buy time and hold out until the Blood Moon is over. Then fewer people will be misled."
