Everyone in Jianye City, without exception, had an extremely terrified expression on their faces. Presumably, they were like Shen Luo, who had seen the apocalyptic scene of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
On their bodies, there was an indistinct black mark of light, as well as a wisp of flickering red blood Qi. They were all converging towards a certain place in the sky.
Shen Luo raised his head and looked in that direction. He saw that without exception, all of them were gathered on the demonic wind in the sky.
At this moment, Yao Feng was still fighting with Bai Xiaoyun. The cloak on his body had turned from black to blood red. His aura was much stronger than before.
When Shen Luo saw this, he pondered for a while and immediately figured out what was going on.
He had once read an article about evil cultivators in the library hall of Mount Fangcun. It mentioned an evil cultivation method that could strengthen one's cultivation by absorbing the energy contained in negative emotions such as fear, hatred, and anger.
Those who cultivated this method would often deliberately create killing, hatred, and fear to obtain the negative energy that they needed.
Yao Feng had spent so much effort to lure them into the city but was not in a hurry to kill them. It was very likely that he wanted to absorb the fear and Blood Qi of the people in the city to recover his strength.
If he were to continue doing this, all of the people in Jianye City would become dried corpses without any Blood Qi, just like the people in Swords Gate Pass.
When he recovered more of his strength, Bai Xiaoyun would not be able to withstand his attacks.
However, although Shen Luo's Breeze Barrier-Breaking Talisman dispelled part of the illusion, the people who were trapped in the illusion did not wake up.
Shen Luo could not think of a good solution at the moment. He could only leap forward and fly toward one of the people. He grabbed his shoulder and shook him in an attempt to wake him up.
However, the red light in the person's eyes did not diminish, and he did not seem to wake up at all.
He turned his gaze and saw Lu Yong standing not far away. He quickly rushed to Lu Yong's side, grabbed his shoulders with both hands, and shook him violently. However, Lu Yong was no different from the person in front of him, and did not move an inch.
Shen Luo hesitated for a moment. Then, he turned his wrist, took out a small thunder charm, and stuck it on his arm.
"Ordinary people can't handle it, so I can only test it on you. Sorry for the offense." He took a step back and activated the talisman.
With a "boom", a bolt of lightning descended from the sky and struck Lu Yong's body in an instant.
"Ah …"
Lu Yong screamed and woke up abruptly. He first took a few steps back in fear, and then looked around with a helpless expression.
"What happened?" he asked blankly.
"Time is of the essence, so I don't have time to explain in detail. Everyone has fallen into the Demonic Wind's illusory spell. Let's wake the others up first," Shen Luo said hurriedly and dashed toward another cultivator.
Lu Yong looked around and then looked up at the two figures fighting above. Although he still didn't understand what had happened, he knew that the situation was not good. He directly passed through the crowd and headed for the city gate.
When Shen Luo saw this, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes. However, he had no time to care about it. He could only wake the others up first.
"Eh? You can get out of the illusion on your own? "Evil Wind noticed the abnormality below and said in surprise.
As soon as he finished speaking, a silver light flashed by his side. Bai Xiaoyun's monk's staff had swept towards him again.
Yao Feng raised his arm to block the attack. His sleeves were wrapped in a blood mist, and he blocked the staff. The Blood Qi on it was like a living thing, seeping into the staff. The Great Compassion Mantra inscriptions had already dyed half of the staff red.
When Bai Xiaoyun saw this, he had to withdraw his staff.
"Forget it. Anyway, I've absorbed the fear to the limit. It's time to eat." Evil Wind laughed wantonly.
As soon as he finished speaking, his blood-red cloak fluttered without wind and opened up like a bat's wings. Suddenly, a huge blood-red vortex appeared on his exposed body, and a strong suction force came from it.
As soon as the force appeared, the people on the ground who had not woken up seemed to be strangled by an invisible force. They started to whimper.
Then, these people opened their mouths unconsciously. Streaks of blood-red light flowed out of their mouths and gathered into a long blood-red river in mid-air, flowing into the vortex in front of Evil Wind.
Shen Luo focused his gaze and saw a few of the young men and women who were not very energetic. Their faces turned from red to white, then from white to yellow. Their skin was also loosening at a speed that was visible to the naked eye.
His heart skipped a beat. He did not care about anything else and quickly went to the back of the group to save the people from the Shen family and the Bai family first.
In a hurry, Shen Luo had to use dozens of Little Thunder Talismans to hit Shen Yu, Bai Bi, and the other cultivators at the same time to wake them up.
"Hurry up and save them. Use your magic to protect them." In a hurry, Shen Luo did not know if it would work, so he could only shout loudly.
After Shen Yu and the others woke up, although they did not know what had happened, they could tell that the situation was urgent. Without asking for details, they all cast spells to protect the people around them with their magic power.
However, to their surprise, Lu Yong rushed to the city gate alone and was hacking at the thick and heavy city gate with a flying axe.
However, the city gate was also covered with a layer of dark red light. It seemed to be supported by a Dharma Formation, so it did not break at all.
On the other side of the sky, as soon as the blood-red light entered the vortex, the light on Evil Wind's body became brighter and brighter. The cracks that appeared on his body were quickly filled by the blood-red light and started to heal bit by bit.
Bai Xiaoyun looked down and became more and more serious. He made a gesture with one hand and hit the monk's staff heavily.
With a clang, the Great Compassion Mantra that was engraved on the monk's staff lit up. The Pure Pearl that was inlaid at the end of the staff suddenly released a layer of gentle white light that spread up the staff.
The parts of the staff that were tainted by the blood-red light were instantly purified by the white light.
As Bai Xiaoyun held the monk's staff, a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes. However, when he looked at the Bai family members who were having their Blood Qi absorbed quickly, his gaze became determined again.
He formed a seal with one hand and waved his palm forward. The six Buddhist beads engraved with Buddhist mantras that had been floating beside him suddenly shone brightly, and all of them whistled and rushed toward the evil wind.
"Mantra Chant, Buddha's Light Demon Suppression, Om, Ma, Ni, Pad, Mi, Hum."
As he chanted softly, the six Buddhist prayer beads instantly flew to Evil Wind's side and surrounded him, shining brightly.
Every mantra on the prayer beads shone with a crimson light that illuminated the sky. From the prayer beads, illusory Buddha shadows that were hundreds of feet tall appeared. They held the Dhyana Mudra, the Fearless Mudra, the Wish Mudra, the Sutra Mudra, the Wisdom Fist Mudra, and the Demon Subduing Mudra respectively and attacked Evil Wind.
