Chapter 439: Very ups and downs, simple and rough

The people of the Supreme Sect guessed correctly, the evil demon really wanted to capture the leader first.

In other words, it's not about capturing the king, it's about killing the king.

They were divided into two groups, one to rescue King Sejong, and the other to rescue the leaders of various sects.

But before the two groups of people could completely separate, a deafening explosion was heard.

The huge roar and aftermath caused all the people moving forward at high speed to subconsciously mobilize their spiritual power to put up a protective shield, but they were still blown away by the aftermath.

Everyone retreated hastily to avoid the impact of the aftermath.

"Oh no! It's the fortress where the master and the others are!" Yan Qing shouted.

Everyone's heart tightened. They could see with their naked eyes that the remaining fortresses were trapped in the Great Demon's territory or formation, and almost no one heard the explosion.

Lin Du Weizhi, Hou Cang and the other two had the highest cultivation levels and were the first to rush forward.

The thick smoke was rolling and heavy, darker than the sky, and in the remaining smoke, a flash of blood rose to the sky.

Those who had originally rushed towards King Sejong also turned back.

"What are you doing here?" Lin Du's voice, which was so cold and even inhumane, echoed in the dark night.

"Mo Lin and Yan Qing, take your men to protect King Sejong and follow the original plan."

Chu Guanmeng landed on Ni Jinxuan's shoulder and said, "Let's go."

The exploded fortress was in ruins. Lin Du flew down to the destroyed formation and killed all the evil demons that had just climbed up.

The power of ice and snow easily shattered those frozen evil demons.

She lowered her head, her consciousness expanded, and she quickly determined the extent of the damage to the formation and took out array stones to repair it.

Jiang Liang and others rushed into the exploded bunker, trying to find survivors.

Ju Yuan didn't bother to be so particular and simply shouted, "Grand Senior Sister!! Sect Leader!!! Senior Sister!!"

Passing through numerous demons and ruins, the heavy mist and thick smoke dissipated, and a golden light slowly appeared before everyone.

"What are you howling for?" A female voice came from the golden light.

Ju Yuan let out a long breath, "Senior Sister, you are still alive!"

Feng Chao's voice became even calmer. "Do you think we are the leaders for nothing?"

A very weak voice said, "Ah! Someone! Save me first. I am really not that powerful as the head of the sect. I am too old to be scared."

Feng Chao: ...Can you please move the big pot in front of everyone away before you speak?

The fat old man from the Tongtian Sect carefully poked his head out from the edge of the pot and said, "Ah, the people from the Wushang Sect are here!"

Cangli's eyes fell on the pot, "Your pot..."

It looks like it's of a high level and the material is rare, no wonder it can withstand such a big explosion.

The fat old man wanted to put the pot away, but another evil demon jumped up. His hand trembled and he put the pot down again, blocking everyone in the pot.

Cangli: ...

Anyway, at least everyone is fine and there are almost no casualties.

It's just that the fat old man's elbow was a little worn out from holding the pot.

Lin Du had finished repairing the formation, and the brothers and sisters who followed him had also finished sweeping away the evil demons. Only when they met Feng Chao did they understand what had just happened.

The evil demons realized that this was the fortress of the general command center, so they did not continue to fight, but directly sealed off the fortress. After the blockade, they deployed poison mist and giant explosion arrays, hoping to catch them all in one fell swoop.

The leader of the Ji Shi Zong directly took out the top-grade poison pill and asked everyone to take it. Several leaders of the demon tribe felt the precursor of the explosion. When the chief of the bird tribe wanted to throw out the magic treasures, he found that most of them were given to his son who was fighting on the other side. The leader of the Tongtian Sect cooked a big pot at the critical moment, and everyone was spared.

Very ups and downs and simple and rough.

Lin Du was amazed and thought of another thing, "There must be an insider among us, otherwise this fortress should not have been discovered."

It was impossible for the reconnaissance demons to find the locations of the two fortresses so accurately, so they only attacked these two fortresses directly. As for the other fortresses that were more numerous and powerful, they just used their domains to hold them back and did not intend to kill them so decisively.

"That's a problem." Feng Chao frowned slightly, "What do you think?"

Lin Du's eyes fell on the pot, "I have an immature idea."

Everyone's eyes fell on the pot that was about to be put away. The wrist of the Tongtian Sect leader suddenly began to ache again. "Ah?"

On the other side, when everyone arrived at the fortress where Je Sejong was, they found that the ground was damp and had a strong smell of herbs. A group of Je Sejong's disciples were on the fortress, each holding a large basin, desperately sprinkling medicinal powder and liquid down. Countless evil demons grimaced, but they never dared to go up.

Yan Qing: ...

"Who did Junior Master ask us to rescue?"

"Don't say that, seriously. We can't fight against Jesejong's people, but they can attack with potions!" Yuan Ye silently used his spiritual power to put up a shield.

How nervous the group was before they arrived, how relaxed they became after seeing the situation clearly.

It wasn't just attacks with potions, there were also dozens of people killing the enemy with bare hands. Their punches were like thunder, and their kicks even produced obvious explosions of spiritual energy.

"Je Sejong... doesn't seem... very..." Yan Qing pondered the words for a moment, "fragile."

"No wonder almost no patients dare to make trouble under King Sejong of Je." Yuan Ye crossed his arms and exclaimed in amazement.

"Hey! That's... Yan Qing?! Is he a fellow Taoist from the Supreme Sect??" A female voice came out, "Don't just stand there! Help me!!"

Yan Qing was stunned for a moment. It sounded familiar. Jese Emperor Du Shao?

Yuan Ye lowered his head, "We do need help. The explosive array is still there, but the liquid medicine they spilled suppressed the demonic energy, making it difficult for the array to be triggered. We cannot waste the medicinal materials, so we need to dismantle it quickly."

Ni Jinxuan asked quietly, "Can you dismantle it?"

Yuan Ye shook his head, "I can't."

Chu Guanmeng turned around and shouted at Wei Zhi, "Can you do this?"

Wei Zhi stood behind them calmly and nodded when he heard the words, "Okay."

The demon-subduing pestles fell down one by one, and golden light surged up instantly. The demonic energy was swallowed up by the golden light the moment it surged.

The rest of the people gathered together and took out their belongings the moment the evil spirits surrounded them. Are you kidding me? Are you trying to compete with them in strength?

A night attack was safely ended. When the last evil demon fell to the ground, Yan Qing received a message from Lin Du, flew upstairs, looked around, and found Du Shao.

"Friend Du."

Du Shao was stunned for a moment. What did Yan Qing want to do with her? Did she offend him when she was yelling in a hurry just now?

Yan Qing took her aside, asked for a large bag of medicine, said thank you, and turned away.

"Senior Sister Du, that is the weapon refining master of the Supreme Sect, right? Why did he just ask you for some medicine and then leave?"

Du Shao turned around and said with a casual smile, "Their sect has a few simple medicinal herbs, so I gave them to them."

Yan Qing flew all the way to the fortress where they were.

Lin Du had already brought back the fat old man from the Tongtian Sect and was setting up a big pot. Hot soup was steaming out and it smelled so good that even those who were old enough to fast wanted to have a bowl of it.

The fat old man muttered, "Look, you asked me to make soup, but why did you bring me back?"

Lin Du glanced at Yan Qing and asked, "Has the medicine arrived?"

Yan Qing took out a medicine bag that was bigger than a human head, "Hmm!"

Fatty was stunned for a moment, then watched Lin Du open the pot and pour the food into it.

He then reacted slowly, "You called me back? To make poison? To poison those traitors who are colluding with the evil spirits?"

"Then can you let me have a sip before you finish boiling it? I haven't finished boiling it yet."

Lin Du shook his head, "Don't worry, it's not poisonous. You can drink it even if it's released."

Fatty didn't believe it, "You look like you have nothing good to say!"

The corner of Yan Qing's mouth twitched, Chu Guanmeng laughed wildly, and Lin Du explained seriously, "Really, they are all herbs that can drive away evil spirits, don't worry."

The fat old man took a careful look. Although he didn't know what effect the combination of the ingredients would have, it was clear that they were not poisonous and their medicinal properties did not conflict with each other.

He muttered, "There are so many of them. Once we get down there, we won't be able to move them!"

Lin Du smiled, "Can't your pot be made bigger? If there's too much medicine, add water, if there's too much water, add medicine. Anyway, you have to boil it all together, and you have to make sure there's no smell of medicine. I know your skills, you can do it."

The fat old man yelled that it was against his will, but at the same time he was forced to boil the soup to remove the smell of the medicine under the gaze of this group of high-ranking monks.
