Wanhua City, in an extraordinary mansion.
A tall young man with an ethereal temperament sat alone at a stone table in the garden. He stared at the chessboard on the table and was playing a game of Go with himself.
This young man's eyes were deep and filled with endless wisdom. It was hard to look at him directly.
Even when playing Go with himself, he seemed to be enjoying it and unable to extricate himself.
A black shadow abruptly appeared 30 meters away, kneeling on the ground with one knee. His gaze was downcast, and he remained silent.
After a while, Maki Cangsheng ended the game. He clapped his hands and asked calmly, "What's the matter?"
The man in black said respectfully, "My Lord, Lin Xuan and the Magic Lotus Sect have been forced to retreat from Griffin Ridge. They have retreated to the Dragons clan's territory in the northwest."
Maki Cangsheng did not seem surprised. He asked calmly, "The Tianding Army did not act?"
"The Tianding Army is mobilizing," the man in black said.
Maki Cangsheng ordered, "Tell Li Yanfeng that he might not be able to take down Lin Xuan alone. Tell him to cooperate with Yang Tianding as much as possible so that he won't fail miserably.
Also, inform the Demon Abyss that they can stop now. "
"Yes!"
The man in black took a few steps back and gradually disappeared in the air.
Maki Cangsheng looked up at the sky. His eyes were as deep as the abyss, and his lips slowly curled into a cold smile.
Lin Xuan, you might have some ability, but you are not worthy to be my opponent, Maki Cangsheng!
…
"Kill!"
"Kill all the monsters of the Magic Lotus Sect!"
Boom! Boom!
In the wilderness of the forest, arrows flew everywhere, and colorful auras flashed.
A group of elite soldiers in heavy armor and armed with crossbows and spears rushed out of the forest toward the Magic Lotus Sect. Each of them was like a pack of wolves and tigers, and their auras were astonishing.
Lin Xuan sat upright on the back of the snow leopard and spread out his hands. Thousands of flying locusts surged out like a torrent and rushed into the battlefield. In an instant, they dealt a heavy blow to the Jin Hua Army and destroyed all the heavy armored crossbows.
Following that, over ten thousand experts from the Magic Lotus Sect also rushed forward without showing any signs of weakness. A group of Divine Astral Realm experts rushed to the front, releasing Vital Spirit to protect their bodies. Braving the crossbows, they bravely charged forward, brandishing their swords and sabers as if they were chopping melons and vegetables, slaughtering the two thousand strong Jinhua Army.
An hour later, Jin Hua's army had left behind five to six hundred corpses. They retreated into the forest in a sorry state and gradually disappeared into the distance …
…
Dark clouds covered the moon and the stars dimmed.
A group of martial artists with vast and mighty auras walked through the undulating mountain range, frightening the ferocious birds and fierce beasts in the mountains and jungles to flee.
These people were all elites of the Magic Lotus Sect. Their realms were all above the True Energy Realm, and there were more than seven hundred of them in the Divine Astral Realm. It was an extremely powerful force.
However, at this moment, this force was already showing signs of exhaustion.
Along the way, the Magic Lotus Sect had already suffered five sneak attacks from the Jinhua Army's elites. Although the losses were not great, the impact on their morale was not small.
At this moment, the faces of the Magic Lotus Sect's members were mostly filled with confusion. They were at a loss about the unknown road ahead, and this increased their physical and mental exhaustion.
Lin Xuan walked in the middle of the group. Looking at his subordinates who were covered in blood, he could not help but frown secretly.
It had been ten hours since they left Griffin Ridge, but they had only traveled less than two hundred miles.
For martial artists, this was simply the speed of a turtle.
"Lin Xuan, the terrain ahead is complicated, and it's even more convenient for hiding troops. I think it's better to stop and rest for a while. We can continue marching after daybreak," Mu Jianfeng said.
"Alright!"
Lin Xuan nodded and instructed Yan Hui, "Pass down the order. We'll stop and rest for the night. We'll continue tomorrow."
"Yes!"
Yan Hui obeyed the order and left.
Lin Xuan jumped off his mount and sat down on a large rock. He took out a wine flask and took a sip, frowning as he pondered the situation around him.
In just a few days, a series of events had happened that made him dizzy. He had gone from a powerful and respected human prodigy to a stray dog in the blink of an eye.
Until now, he still felt that it was a little strange.
Along the way, he had encountered all kinds of ambushes and sneak attacks. It was as if someone had completely seen through his next step.
At this moment, he connected all the dots and gradually felt that he had fallen into a series of prearranged traps.
These traps were very intricate and intricate, making it difficult for him to escape. He was extremely annoyed.
'Who could it be? Maki Cangsheng? 'Lin Xuan secretly guessed.
Mu Jianfeng walked over, hesitated, and asked, "Lin Xuan, what happened? Why did the Magic Lotus Sect members betray us? "
Lin Xuan calmly said, "Master, the Lotus Demon was tampered with and temporarily awakened, causing the believers to betray us."
"What? Who would be so rebellious as to tamper with the Lotus Demon? "Mu Jianfeng's face was filled with anger.
Lin Xuan bitterly smiled and said, "Master, could it be that you really can't guess?"
Mu Jianfeng's gaze moved, and he probed, "Could it be the Keelung Sect again?"
"Other than the Keelung Sect, I really can't think of anyone else who has the strength and motive to do so," Lin Xuan said.
"The Keelung Sect! Damn it! The Keelung Sect again! They're playing with fire! "
Mu Jianfeng was so angry that he gritted his teeth, his eyes blazing.
Lin Xuan's gaze was gloomy as he said, "Whether they're playing with fire or courting death, they've already done it. We can't predict what will happen next."
He used his mental power to enter the Magic Lotus Seal's space and looked at the Magic Lotus through the altar's mirror. He saw that the Soul Raising Stone was still there.
If he couldn't take the Soul Raising Stone away soon, the Magic Lotus might awaken again. At that time, there would be even more Magic Lotus Sect members betraying us.
Lin Xuan couldn't be bothered to deal with the members of the Magic Lotus Sect who were far away in the world. However, he couldn't ignore the ten thousand elites that followed him.
He thought for a bit, then looked at Mu Jianfeng and said, "Master, after the Lotus Demon awakens, it can destroy the life source spirit of the believers and turn them into zombie-like monsters. You're very knowledgeable, have you heard of a way to deal with it?"
Mu Jianfeng stroked his beard and thought for a bit. He frowned and said, "This Lotus Demon's realm hasn't reached the peak yet. It can only absorb the power of faith in one world. I heard that in the ancient times, when the Lotus Demon was causing trouble, the human race's ancestors used a formation to temporarily force it to the outer world in order to prevent it from absorbing the power of faith. Other than that, I'm afraid there's no other way. "
"Oh?"
Lin Xuan's eyes lit up when he heard this. He said, "Master, is a spatial artifact refined from the Immemorial 33 Skies considered an outer world?"
"It should be. After all, the rules inside are different from the outside world. Hmm? Do you have such an artifact? "Mu Jianfeng was surprised.
"I do have one. Unfortunately, the space is too small. I have to expand it quickly!"
Lin Xuan became anxious. The Lotus Demon could awaken at any time. It was extremely urgent. He quickly sent someone to call Dun Fei.
Ever since he led the Snow Leopard Army to escape from the foreign race's encirclement, his enthusiasm for expanding and repairing the Illusory Demon Orb had decreased significantly. Now, however, he was burning with passion again.
"Lin Xuan, why are you looking for me?" Dun Fei walked over unhurriedly.
Lin Xuan said solemnly, "Dun Fei, I need you to continue repairing the Illusory Demon Orb. The sooner, the better. Tell me if you need anything!"
Dun Fei was stunned for a moment. He smiled bitterly and sighed. "Sigh, looks like I, Dun Fei, am destined to be a coolie. The materials for the Great Sky-Patching Array are all ready-made. If you want to speed it up, you only need Primal Stones. A large amount of Primal Stones. "
"Alright! Primal Stones are not a problem! "
Lin Xuan nodded and put Dun Fei into the Illusory Demon Orb. At the same time, he threw a ring full of Primal Stones into it.
At this moment, he suddenly felt something and looked up at the Dark Forest in front of him.
He released the Shadow Locusts to scout the way and once again searched for traces of the Jin Hua Army. This time, it was different from the previous five times. The number of enemies was huge. There were probably no less than twenty thousand of them. The leader was the famous General Li Yanfeng.
"Li Yanfeng! You're really haunting me! Do you really think that I, Lin Xuan, am a pushover? "Lin Xuan was furious. A cold murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
"What's wrong?" Mu Jianfeng asked.
"Twenty miles ahead, the main force of the Jin Hua Army led by Li Yanfeng has appeared. There are at least twenty thousand of them!" Lin Xuan said in a low voice.
Hearing this, Mu Jianfeng could not help but frown.
In the previous five sneak attacks, the Jin Hua Army's tactic of exhausting the troops was very effective. At this point, the Magic Lotus Sect was already exhausted. If there was a big battle, they would suffer heavy casualties.
He thought for a moment and sighed helplessly. "Twenty miles. I'm afraid they will arrive in less than an hour. We should prepare for battle as soon as possible."
Lin Xuan's eyes flashed. A crazy idea flashed through his mind.
