In the Ring Hall high up in the city, Zhang Yu immediately sensed something. His eyes flickered as he looked into the distance. He saw a powerful spiritual force rushing towards Mian Lu City. Its mind and aura were released without restraint, as if it was afraid that people wouldn't know what its target was.
After watching for a while, he withdrew his gaze and returned to meditation.
This person's spiritual force was comparable to an ordinary Xuan Zun. However, the city had already prepared a countermeasure, so there was no need for him to intervene.
On the other side of the Ring Hall, after Zhu Zonghu refused King Xi's conscription, his heart had been tense for the past few days. He could only constantly deal with official business to divert his attention.
Clear footsteps came from outside the hall. Daoist Wang came forward. After bowing, he said, "Zonghu, the buoy has detected an enemy approaching. If its speed doesn't change, it will reach me in about half an hour."
Although Mian Lu City didn't create a Creation Solar Star and didn't directly exchange information with the other cities of the Vast Race, there were still Roaming Buoys refined by cultivators.
These buoys were very sensitive to spiritual force. They moved like waves. Using the order of their vibrations and arranging them according to the appropriate distance, they could monitor the enemy's arrival and speed from a relatively distant place. The city could use this to take precautions in advance.
Zhu Zonghu didn't know why, but at this moment, his heart calmed down. He nodded and said, "They're finally here. Let's see what Mister Yin does next."
This time, he didn't intend to use the appraisal bird. Before he even made a decision to respond, he forced the appraisal bird into the prepared suppressive artifact and buried it in the depths of the great array.
This spiritual creature was bestowed to him by King Xi. Although it protected him in the past, it was also monitoring him. Now that King Xi might attack him, how could he be at ease leaving this thing by his side? Naturally, he had to seal it first to eliminate the possibility of it being counterattacked.
At this moment, Yao Zhenjun stood alone at the top of the hundred-story hall. Her bright eyes stared into the distance. At this moment, she reached out and grasped the hilt of her sword. Half of the blade was removed, and then she suddenly pulled it out!
Refiner Han was currently flying towards Mianlu. Suddenly, a bright and gentle light bloomed in front of his eyes, and then disappeared.
At this moment, his spiritual senses made him suddenly feel that something was wrong. He abruptly stopped in his rapid flight, and a brilliant spiritual light was released outward with a boom. It was as if a blazing sun had appeared in the sky, and the staff sword in his hand was lifted up first, blocking in front of his body.
However, at this moment, he paused for a moment. After standing in the air for a moment, a crisp sound rang out. A crack appeared on the staff sword in his hand. As fine fragments fell down, the staff sword broke apart from the middle.
The spiritual light on his body suddenly dimmed, as if it had burned out everything. In the end, it was extinguished. At this moment, his entire body suddenly split into pieces, falling down from the sky. Before it landed on the ground, it had already turned into dust and dissipated into the atmosphere.
Yao Zhenjun was still standing on the high platform, looking into the distance. In the high altitude wind, the hemp Daoist robe on her body fluttered along with her hair. She slowly sheathed the long sword in her hand. When the sword light disappeared, it let out a soft sound.
Just now, she seemed to be standing in the same place without moving, but in reality, in an instant, she had used the magical ability of the sword, "Forced Light Rotation", to travel thousands of miles back and forth. Her sword had cut off Refiner Han's life force. By the time he realized it, everything was already over.
She tilted her head slightly, causing the hair on her cheeks to flutter behind her back. Then, she walked down from the high platform.
Yin Huanting and the others were waiting for her there. At this moment, he walked up and said, "Fellow Daoist Yao?"
Yao Zhenjun's voice carried a trace of lightness as she said, "The enemy has been eliminated."
In truth, Refiner Han's strength was also high enough. At the very least, Yao Zhenjun's level of strength wasn't much higher than his. However, what he faced was an attack he had never seen before.
He never imagined that he would be attacked thousands of miles away from Mianlu City. If he had stayed where he was and remained vigilant, he might have had a chance to defend himself. However, as he quickly moved forward, most of his spiritual power was used to propel himself. By the time he reacted, it was already too late.
In the main hall, Zhu Zonghu was sitting there, waiting for news.
He looked calm on the surface, but the fists in his sleeves were tightly clenched. Although he had confidence in Yin Huanting and the others, this was the first time Mianlu City had relied on their own strength to resist an enemy. If they couldn't stop it, then their 30 years of hard work would have been for naught.
At this moment, there was a sound from outside. Daoist Wang asked for permission to leave and then walked out. After what seemed like a long time, he returned.
Daoist Wang had a happy expression. After entering, he bowed to Zhu Zonghu and said, "Zonghu, Mister Yin and the others have already eliminated the invaders and the buoy is no longer in the east. The news is reliable."
Zhu Zonghu's expression immediately relaxed. At this time, he discovered that his fingers had nearly stiffened. However, the rich joy in his heart diluted this.
After carefully asking, his mood gradually calmed down. He said, "I understand my Granduncle very well. He won't give up so easily. Towards those who resist him or those who don't submit to his will, he will never be lenient. Unless that person has no choice but to be lenient. "
He looked at Daoist Wang and said, "We can't relax our guard. We must double our vigilance. I fear that the future attacks won't be just one."
Daoist Wang solemnly said, "Zonghu is right. I will arrange for more buoys to monitor the surrounding movements."
Zhu Zonghu said, "Also, help me thank Mister Yin and the others. Also, help me thank that upper cultivator. If possible, I will personally thank them!"
Daoist Wang bowed and said, "I will pass on Zonghu's words."
Soon, five days passed. At the front lines of the spirit horn, Mister Xu entered the main cabin of the ship. He said, "Master, Refiner Han …" He saw that Zhu Yanding was taking the Essence Augmenting Pill and didn't dare to disturb him. He immediately shut his mouth and waited to the side.
Zhu Yanding waited until he swallowed the pill and rinsed his mouth. Then, he asked, "How is it? Has Refiner Han returned? "
Mister Xu bowed and replied, "Master, after Refiner Han went there, there was no news from him."
Refiner Han originally said that he would return in a day, but there was no news from him the next day. Mister Xu thought that it would be difficult to deal with Mianlu City, so there was a delay.
However, there was no news for a few days. Only then did they realize something was wrong. They immediately sent someone to send a message, but they found that there was no movement from Mianlu City. It was as if Refiner Han had never been there.
Zhu Yanding frowned. "Did Refiner Han go somewhere else? Have you checked the nearby Creation Sun Star? "
It was impossible for a Creation Refiner with high-level power to disappear for no reason. Even if they were stopped or attacked, they would leave some traces behind. Usually, it was easy to find their whereabouts.
Mister Xu said with difficulty, "Mianlu City is a remote place, and Zhu Zonghu's foundation is weak. He doesn't have the ability to create a Creation Sun Star, so it's inconvenient to send messages. That's why we don't know what happened there."
Zhu Yanding frowned. "If you don't know, then go and investigate. I want an accurate result."
Even though the Boundless Race had more upper class power than cultivators, when placed in the hands of an Earthen Sect Master like him, there were only a few Creator Alchemists in his fief. Losing even one would be a great loss. Thus, he was also very decisive. He took out a gold medallion and tossed it over. "If necessary, you can transfer Alchemist Shao … Wait a moment!"
He stood up and walked in a circle. Mister Xu looked at him in confusion. After a while, he turned around and said, "There's something wrong with this. There's something strange about Mianlu. Mister Xu, write a letter to my good uncle and tell him that my people disappeared on the road. It's suspected to be Zhu Biye's doing."
He pointed. "Yes, tell him that. Let him know that I can't do what he wants me to do for the time being."
Mister Xu bowed and said yes, then slowly retreated.
Zhu Yanding looked at the map on the table and muttered to himself, "That kid can't have really become powerful, right?"
When he received the report, King Xi found out about this at almost the same time.
Although he appeared to be benevolent, in reality, he sent people to closely monitor every clan member and noble who came to participate in the war, let alone Creation Refiners and other high-level powers.
However, he was very surprised that Refiner Han went missing on the road to Mianlu. Before Refiner Han went, he didn't hear any more news about Zhu Zonghu from Jian Niao. There was definitely a connection between the two.
He grunted and revealed a smile that shocked Mister Chen. "It seems like he's grown wings." He raised his head and said calmly, "Mister Chen, let Feng Zhidao go and check it out. He can take whatever he wants. Just remember to bring my grandnephew back."
Mister Chen's heart trembled. He lowered his head and said yes.
This Daoist Feng was not a good person. He was an evil cultivator. He had once used his fellow disciples to refine a technique, and after he was exposed, he sought refuge with the Vast Race. He used the power of the Vast Race to destroy his original sect, and then refined every single one of his fellow disciples using evil techniques. He was an extremely cruel and vicious person.
This person's level of power was extremely high. It was said that his body could be destroyed without dying. He was also one of the few experts under King Xi.
However, once this person made a move, not many people in the city would be able to survive, except for the Celestials. After leaving the main cabin, he sent King Xi's decree to a flying hut floating outside the main ship.
Daoist Feng was currently writing a book in the hut. As the bright red words fell, they began to twist. Waves of cries of infants could be heard, and bursts of burnt smoke floated into the air.
At this moment, a crystal talisman flew in from outside. He didn't even raise his head. He grabbed it and put down the brush. After looking at it, an interested expression appeared on his face. He muttered to himself, "With tens of millions of people, I can barely refine a blood pill. Those Celestials are really interesting. Perhaps I can catch some to refine medicine …"
