The tent was attacked by a strong gust of wind. The roof could not withstand it and was torn apart. Tang Xinrong reacted immediately. Her powerful qi domain protected the lower half of the tent and everyone else.
"What happened?"
"Not good, Red Rock City has fallen!"
Red Rock City had fallen?
Just as everyone was feeling bewildered, they suddenly heard a cry of alarm and quickly looked towards Red Rock City. They could not help but be shocked to see that behind Red Rock Stronghold, there was a huge gray membrane enveloping the city, and it was slowly sinking. The gray aura of death that clung to the gray membrane became thicker and thicker as it sank. The scene inside also became more and more blurry. It was as if there were people who were falling into hell. They were desperately knocking on the gray membrane to ask for help. Their eyes were filled with misery and despair.
The spectators were all moved.
Yan Li frowned slightly. Almost half of the people in Red Rock City, even if he didn't count those opportunistic Hunting Groups and rogue cultivators, there were still close to two million people. This was more than ten times more than the number of people he burned alive to avenge Yan Chaosheng.
Since they were in a low-lying area, it was not long before they could not see clearly. They ran up to the top of the slope and stepped on the dry and cold gravel. Through the weeds that had withered under the bitter cold, half of Red Rock City was exposed to their eyes.
It was as though a formless beast was swallowing it. The majestic Red Rock City was disappearing bit by bit. The scene in front of them was shocking and helpless.
"How can this be!"
At this moment, they finally remembered that the reason they had gathered here was to discuss how to rescue the trapped citizens of Red Rock City and their fellow sect members. Who would have thought that after half a day, they would only be able to hold a trial? Furthermore, it was a case of miscarriage of justice.
"Heh, forget about rescuing people. Those who went to investigate might not even be able to return." Ye Xiaolang mocked loudly.
Zhu Rong and Tang Xinrong's expressions changed. Don't think that I won't teach you a lesson just because you are the first seat of the Sword Duel Peak. Just as they were about to scold him, they were interrupted by another voice.
"Look, there are people there!"
Following the direction of the voice, they saw dozens of people rushing out from the sunken horizon.
"It's Eldest Senior Brother!" The Dao Court disciple became excited.
The dozens of figures were almost all marionettes, and the one who led them out was Emperor Han. He used his powerful aura to support himself and flew towards them.
After him, another person appeared. He also used his aura to pull the unconscious person over, but his method was much more brilliant. Furthermore, he flew through the air and arrived before Emperor Han.
"It's Master!" Shen Wanzhou suddenly said.
"Catch!" Ye Qinglan threw him down from the sky.
Yan Li saw that Cao Zigu and Huang Chengyan were among the people falling down. He hurriedly caught them and laid them flat on the sand. Both of them were unconscious. Their faces were filled with a grey baleful aura, and they were frowning in pain.
"What happened to them?" He couldn't help but look at Ye Qinglan.
Ye Qinglan looked very tired. He shook his head and said, "Keep an eye on them. I'll take them back to the sect for treatment after I adjust my Qi-circulation for a while. Don't ask any more questions. Any delay will cost their lives. — Tang Xinrong, take care of them yourself! "Then, he went to meditate.
"Is this the Netherworld Baleful Demon?" Liumu Bingjian walked over and said in surprise. "When did the Inferno Formation possess such evil power?"
"It's the Yin Nether River!" Emperor Han landed on the ground and handed his junior brother and sister over to his fellow sect members to take care of. He had a strange expression on his face. "The Demon Race opened a tunnel underground and guided the Yin Nether River here.
It corroded the underground of Red Rock City. Once the Inferno Formation activated, the ground sank uncontrollably. They were all hit by the Yin Nether River. I was lucky enough to escape … "
Yan Li had read about the Yin Nether River in the ancient records. Legend had it that this river led to the Underworld Realm outside the three realms — the destination of all souls that couldn't return to the Sea of Stars. This river flowed from the Yin Mountain to the Yellow Mountain and nurtured millions of lives in the Demon Realm. However, only the residents of the Demon Realm could enjoy it. This was because the Yin Nether River was demonic water contaminated with baleful demons. Once a cultivator touched it, their Dao foundation would be eroded. What was more terrifying was that not only did the Yin Nether River contain baleful demons, it was also the coldest Yin water in the world. Even the Demon Race had to go through special treatment before they dared to drink it.
However, he was not surprised by the fact that the Demon Race had secretly dug a tunnel, but by Emperor Han's current expression.
He had not met Emperor Han many times, but he knew very well how deep and cold the latter was. Forget about showing his emotions, even his emotions were unpredictable.
But at this moment, the expression on the other party's face was clearly one of helplessness and agony.
"I can't save them!" His lips were trembling in pain.
"Brother Han, you've tried your best," Liumu Bingjian consoled him.
"The Yin Nether River is outside, and the Inferno Formation is inside … We can't save them …" a Dao Court disciple muttered.
"Not only the citizens, but also the first batch of people who went in to save them …" Xue Tianya said with a solemn expression.
The first batch of people who went in numbered more than sixty, including Xiao Pojun of the Sixth Big Dipper Palace, Tang Tianfeng of the Fourth Big Dipper Palace, Li Zhengjun of the Upper Wilderness God Temple, Su Xingyu of the Dragon Elephant Mountain, Du Qirui of the Mystic Divine Sect, and Luo Jin of the Five Elements Court … These were all geniuses who were at the top of the Heavenly Star and Prodigy Roll. If all of them died in there, in addition to the war resources that the city had accumulated over the years, the losses would be immeasurable. Needless to say, this Demon-Buster Conference was a huge loss.
"Damn the Demon Race!" Duan Yihong said angrily, "Why did we not know that they dug a tunnel? From the Yin Nether River to here, we have to pass through the Illusion Night Forest and the Red Rock Canyon. Can they dig a tunnel that is thousands of kilometers long in just a few days? I think spies have already infiltrated Red Rock City! "
"More than two million people …" Du Ziqi, who was sitting on the lotus seat, said fearfully, "What should we do? I … I'm afraid that this will become a nightmare that will haunt me in the future … Weiwei …" She looked at Gu Caiwei pleadingly.
Gu Caiwei was silent. She did not show mercy when it came to killing people. Apart from the fact that she did not meet the standard of "killing the innocent," she was not benevolent at all. However, with such a large number of people, she was at a loss as to how to choose between knowing that there was only a slim chance of survival. She could not help but look at Yan Li.
"Let's give up!" Zhu Rong made up his mind. "Originally, the best way was to find a Heavenly Master Craftsman nearby and mobilize all our forces to cooperate with the Heavenly Master Craftsman to break the array. Now that Red Rock City has fallen, even if the Heavenly Master Craftsman were to come back to life, he would not be able to save the people inside."
The silence was like a poison that gripped everyone's throats. Even if they wanted to speak, they could only roar helplessly in their hearts.
Ji Zhiyuan took a deep breath.
"Save!"
However, someone spoke first. She looked over and realized that it was Yan Li. She could not help but be stunned.
