207: Sudden Attack

Sudden Attack

Other than Yan Hua, who was still refining pills, and the few elders who were protecting him, everyone else rushed over. "Vice City Lord, what happened to you? What exactly happened?"2

Only Lin Bai frowned slightly as he examined Ren Zeyuan who had suddenly barged in. He felt that the aura on his body seemed a little strange, but he could not pinpoint it.

"There's a problem on our side..."

Ren Zeyuan spoke intermittently and looked weak. He suddenly coughed out large mouthfuls of black blood and fell to the ground like an incomparably twisted creature.

Everyone hurriedly transferred their spiritual energy to him, but even so, his face was still pale.

"We originally wanted to purify the City Lord's evil aura, but we didn't expect that the City Lord would be corroded too much by the foul aura. We didn't notice it at all and accidentally fell for it. Now, president He and the others are using their bodies to suppress it and delay those things. They asked me to come outside and ask for help."

Probably because he had said too much in one breath, Ren Zeyuan was coughing non-stop. Looking at the remnant black qi that was still lingering around his body, coupled with his tragic appearance, no one doubted him.

"How could it be like this? Could it be that the City Lord's situation is hopeless?"

Everyone's expressions were somewhat fearful. They had originally wanted to save the City Lord, but now that they found out about this news. Even He Qingyuan's life would be in danger. They didn't know what to do for a moment.

Even Yan Hua's aura became unstable. If He Qingyuan and the others failed to purify it, even if they refined this pill, they didn't know if it would have any effect.

Because Yan Hua was affected by the outside world, the flames in the pill furnace became unstable. Sometimes it was strong and sometimes it was weak. It appeared mottled.

Yan Hua was still considered fine. The spirit energy of the array guardian elders had become dim, causing the surrounding air to form a distorted shape. It almost affected the pill furnace.

Yan Hua hurriedly said, "Calm down and calm down. Don't be disturbed by the outside world."

No matter what, he had to continue refining the pill. If he succeeded, at least there was a chance of survival.

Even if He Qingyuan and the others couldn't completely purify it, at least the pill plus the sacrifice could suppress the foul air, giving them a chance to go out and find reinforcements. Then think of a way to solve the matter here.

However, if the refinement failed, the sacrifices would have been in vain and everyone here would be completely annihilated. Moreover, it would even affect the outside world, and the consequences would be immeasurable.

Hearing Yan Hua's reminder, the other elders immediately focused their attention, not daring to be distracted by the matters of the outside world again. The formation once again stabilized, and the indistinct medicinal fragrance became even stronger.

Ren Zeyuan, who was heavily injured, had a glint in his eyes. His eyes became somewhat turbid. He lowered his head slightly, but within a short moment, he returned to normal.

"How's the situation here?"

"The situation here is still alright. Nothing unexpected has happened for the time being."

The others revealed a bitter smile. They didn't know if the pill refinement would still be effective if the purification failed. Just as everyone was at a loss, Yan Hua became the backbone of everyone. He suddenly spoke:

"No matter what, there might be a way if we refine the pill first."

He felt a little guilty when he said the last sentence. Other than Yan Hua himself, there were also a few elders who knew the inside story of the Alchemist Association. Everyone here had to be sacrificed other than those few elders.

The others also heard it. They only thought that Yan Hua spent a large amount of blood essence to refine the pill, which was why he was so weak.

Ren Zeyuan also comforted everyone, "Don't worry, everyone. President He is trying his best to buy time. He also asked me to bring something that can help elder Yan."

No one doubted him. Only Lin Bai felt that it was inappropriate for Ren Zeyuan to walk toward Yan Hua step by step.

"No."

Before he could finish his words, Ren Zeyuan, who was seriously injured, turned into two streams of black smoke. One of them pounced toward Yan Hua and the other elders, while the other pounced toward the pill refining furnace.

"Ah!"

A few miserable screams could be heard. Yan Hua and the other guardian elders held their heads and rolled on the ground. Their eyes were filled with blood and tears, and for a moment, their faces looked extremely terrifying.

"Foolish humans, you still want to subdue and purify my lord. When my lord descends, it will be the time of your death."

"Elder Yan, are you alright? !"

Everyone hurriedly ran over, their hearts surging as if a huge wave had been set off. The black fog suddenly became extremely large, and it let out a strange laugh. Its scarlet eyes stared at everyone, flickering with a ruthless and bloodthirsty light. Just looking at it made one shudder in fear.

Looking at the group of people on the ground, it was as if he was looking at little chicks. Just as he was about to go back and fulfill his order, a sharp sword qi suddenly blocked his path.

The one who attacked was Lin Bai. He raised his eyebrows. "You want to leave? It's not that easy."

The sword qi split into two and blocked the black fog's path, but he did not take Lin Bai seriously. "Petty tricks."

The black fog gave a light snort. It was about to forcefully charge over and transform into countless tentacles. However, the moment the fog touched the sword qi, it seemed to be corroded by something. It immediately let out a scream that was even louder than before.

A large hole had been corroded in the black aura, and it was continuously spreading towards the body. It had to be completely cut off. This sword qi seemed to be its nemesis.

The sword qi wrapped around it in all directions, and the black fog was deeply trapped within. If it was not careful and touched it, green smoke would be emitted from its body. Therefore, it was forced to shrink.

Seeing his body shrink in an instant, his eyes immediately revealed a fearful light. He was only been separated. Although he had partial consciousness, his strength was not as strong as Ren Zeyuan's. Otherwise, it would not have been restricted so easily and trapped in this cage made of sword qi.
