Yao Zhenjun returned to the top of the stage. She did not put her sword back into its scabbard. Instead, she held it in her hand. The long sword tassel swayed in the wind. She was thinking about how to improve her swordsmanship.
At this moment, Yin Huanting's voice came from above the Xuntian Dao Zhang, "Supreme Yao, how is the battle going?"
Yao Zhenjun said honestly, "These people combined were enough to block my sword energy. Furthermore, there was a mystical creature helping them from the side. If it wasn't for the protective magical artifact from the Profound Yin cultivator, I wouldn't have been able to escape so easily. It's very likely that I would have already died there."
She was very calm about the fact that she might have lost her life if she hadn't joined hands with them. She didn't hide it at all. Winning or losing was secondary. Every battle was an exploration of Dao and a tempering of swordsmanship.
Yin Huanting pondered for a while and said, "Won't it work even with the help of Senior Daoist brother?"
Yao Zhenjun replied seriously, "It still won't work. Even if Daoist brother Shi were to join the battle, we would only be able to fight them to a standstill. We wouldn't be able to win."
She was confident in herself, but she was not conceited. Especially when it came to her fellow Daoists, she would not overestimate herself too much.
At this moment, Shi Yanxin also said, "These four people are not mediocre. Their magic power is not particularly strong, but they are very experienced. They were already on guard against our methods in advance. They also have the help of various spiritual creatures with various abilities. Fellow Yao's judgment is correct. With the two of us working together, we can only contend with them, but it will be difficult to defeat them."
Yin Huanting thought for a while. Although the formation was guarded by Mister Tao and seemed to be stable, it was not appropriate to be trapped inside. They had to have the power to fight their way out. He said, "What if we have the help of another fellow Daoist?"
Shi Yanxin said, "It depends on how much effort this fellow Daoist is willing to put in. If he is willing to cooperate fully with us, then we might have a chance of winning."
Yin Huating nodded and said, "Please wait here for a while. I will go and ask around. Perhaps I can find one or two helpers."
He withdrew his mind from Xuntian Dao Zhang and came out of the hall. He found Daoist Bo, the messenger of the Xiu Ming Sect, who was still in the city. He said, "Previously, you said that the elders of your sect were also near the city and could help at the critical moment. I wonder if Daoist Bo could contact the elders of your sect?"
Daoist Bo said seriously, "The ancestral elder is indeed near the city. I'll pass the message on your behalf. Please wait for a moment." He went into the inner chamber and took out a concentric jade. He used his finger to carve on it to communicate with the Ancestral Daoist who was outside. He also passed on Yin Huanting's plea.
Not long after, he saw lines of words appear on the concentric jade. The ancestral elder said that he was only here to observe the battle under the orders of the sect leader. He did not plan to fight against King Xi or the Hao Clan behind him directly. His status was not suitable to do so. Mian Lu had to rely on herself for everything.
However, if the city was breached, he would be responsible for moving the important people away. He would do his best to form a good relationship with them. He would not care about anything else.
When Daoist Bo saw this, he could not help but feel a little regretful. He thought for a while and walked out of the inner chamber. He returned to Yin Huating and said, "The ancestral elder can't do anything for now. However, if there are any unexpected changes, the ancestral elder will try to take care of them. I hope you won't blame him."
Yin Huating did not show any displeasure. His expression was very natural as he said, "I can understand your sect's consideration." He raised his hand and bowed. "Thank you, Daoist Bo, for passing the message."
After thanking him, he turned and left.
When Daoist Bo saw Yin Huating leave, he secretly stroked his beard and sighed. He felt that the ancestral elder had taken the wrong step.
He understood that the ancestral elder cherished his own interests for the sake of the sect. However, if he did not help when Mian Lu was in trouble this time, how could he expect Mian Lu to treat them with sincerity in the future?
In the end, the ancestral elder still believed that these Celestials could not withstand King Xi's attack. They might even turn around and beg them for help. Therefore, he did not care about Mian Lu's attitude at all.
He shook his head. They were obviously forced out of the Heaven Region, but they still put down their pride.
During these days of living in Mian Lu City, he learned a lot about these Celestials. He also knew what they did. However, Mian Lu had an inexplicable confidence in them. He believed that these Celestials could withstand it. However, his words did not carry much weight. He could not rely on this to influence the will of an elder.
Outside the city, after Li Jiao used the jade talisman to suppress the restless "Wu She", he looked at the formation in front of him again. The Creator alchemist behind him said, "The two Daoist cultivators just now seemed to be hiding inside and didn't want to come out. The few Yellow Loaches also disappeared. This formation seems to be difficult to break. What do you plan to do?"
Li Xiao said, "This is easy. We just need to do as I said and set up a barrier outside."
"A barrier?"
The creator was somewhat surprised. "Without the fleet and the many armored soldiers, it is impossible for us to do such a thing."
If the fleet was complete, then with the help of the Creator Sun Star and the Hall of Five Chariots, they could use spiritual energy to form a solid barrier to surround Mian Lu in a short period of time. However, the fleet was almost destroyed now. How could they do such a thing?
Li Xiao said, "This time, I brought the" White Race "with me. Together with the mystical creature" Shi Lu ", even without the fleet, we can set up a solid wall outside."
The creator said disapprovingly, "Even with these things, it will take us at least several months to do it with our current strength."
Li Xiao said, "But what if King Xi's reinforcements come?"
The creator was surprised. "Master, are you not going to report the current situation …" Then he understood and said in a low voice, "Put on a show?"
Li Xiao said, "They don't know that I haven't called for reinforcements. Right now, we just need to put on a show and put some pressure on them. If they don't want to be trapped to death, they will definitely choose to fight. If they really lose their courage and are unwilling to come out, then I don't mind making the show real."
After he decided on the plan, he gave the order. The armored soldiers in the Hall of Four Chariots moved out and scattered some white insect-like seeds around Mian Lu.
As soon as these seeds came into contact with the soil, they wriggled on their own and burrowed deep into the soil. Under the urging of the omnipresent light of the Creator Sun, thick and sturdy pillar-like plants grew out of the ground overnight.
The location where they were planted could be seen to have been carefully planned. As they grew, the gaps between them became smaller and smaller. Gradually, they formed a wall that was still expanding.
At this time, Li Xiao opened another crystal cabinet. Inside was a large red butterfly. After its wings were opened, the patterns on them were like a pair of luxuriant and majestic antlers.
This thing was called "Master Deer". Wherever it was, all plants would grow even more luxuriantly. However, these benefits did not come out of nowhere. They were obtained by overdrawing the essence of heaven and earth in the surroundings. If any of these creatures were to use them, then in the future, the area around Mianlu City would become a land of death where not even a blade of grass would grow.
He urged "Master Deer" to activate the "White Race" and then looked at the remaining crystal cabinets. Most of the mystical creatures in the All Spirits Sanctuary were powerful and had their own strengths. Controlling two different creatures was already difficult for him to suppress. If it wasn't so, he would have released all of them a long time ago.
However, it was enough for now. He looked at the city and sneered. He thought to himself, "Let's see how long you can endure."
Zhu Zonghu had been observing the changes inside and outside the Hall of Four Chariots since the two sides were fighting. At this moment, he saw a wall of plants rising up. It was not difficult for him to understand what the other side was doing. He said with a serious expression, "This is the" White Breed ". They saw that I did not come out. It seems like they want to use this to surround me and trap me here until I die!"
Wang Zhidao frowned and said, "Your Highness, let me tell Mister Yin …"
Zhu Zonghu waved his hand and said, "No, even if the" White Breed "was set up, it could not be done in a day. Moreover, Mister Yin and the others should be able to understand the situation. There is no need to say anything more. The only thing we can do is to trust Mister Yin and the others!"
After Yin Huanting left Daoist Bo's place, he thought for a moment and walked towards the underground formation. When he reached the depths, Daoist Wu, who was guarding here, saw him and bowed. He said, "Xuanxiu Yin is here to check on the situation. Don't worry, fellow daoist, there are no changes here. Fellow daoist Ying should still be cultivating and has not come out yet."
Yin Huanting was slightly disappointed. However, he also knew that in addition to cultivation, sometimes it also depended on luck. It was not something that could be done easily.
He stayed here for a while and then walked out again. In his heart, he was thinking that if he really lacked strength, there was a way. He could let the Creator Alchemists who had put on the outer armor. If he waited for a few more days, perhaps more people could put on the outer armor. If these people went out together to help, the chances of success would be higher.
Just as this thought flashed through his mind, he suddenly felt something strange. His footsteps paused, and he lifted his head to take a look. He saw a black-robed figure standing in front of the crystal wall with his back facing him. He seemed to be looking at the scenery outside. Yin Huanting couldn't help but be stunned. Then, his face lit up and he said, "Fellow daoist Ying, you've come out of seclusion?"
Yingxiong slowly turned around and said calmly, "I have seen what is happening outside. Does fellow daoist need my help?"
Yin Huanting looked at his pair of deep and serene eyes, but his heart unconsciously sank. After a moment of absent-mindedness, he came back to his senses, and he seemed to be completely unaware of the strange feeling he had just felt.
He smiled and said, "When fellow daoist came, I went to find fellow daoist Wu, but fellow daoist Wu said …" He couldn't help but shake his head. He was still bound by his past experience. If this person had become a Xuan Zun, then if he wanted to come out, no one outside would be able to detect him.
At this moment, Zhang Yu was cultivating in the hundred-floor hall. At this moment, he suddenly raised his head and looked outside. His eyes flashed slightly. After a moment, he withdrew his gaze and continued to cultivate.
