Chapter 2064
byIn Fenglin City, accompanied by a violent noise and the shaking of the ground, a colorful light curtain suddenly emerged, in a semi-circular shape, enveloping the city.
These restricted great arrays were painstakingly crafted and arranged by the successive city lords and powerful clan members of Fenglin City over the generations, all in order to defend against foreign enemies. However, these defensive great arrays had basically never been activated.
Because Fenglin City had not yet encountered the invasion of any powerful enemies to this day, it led to the fact that even the martial artists who had lived in Fenglin City for a long time had almost forgotten the existence of the defensive great arrays.
But at this moment today, these arrays were activated one by one.
“What happened？ Why were these arrays activated？”
“There must be a major event happening. Could it be that foreign enemies are invading？”
“Could it be that a powerhouse at the Emperor Venerable Realm has come？”
For a while, the numerous martial artists in the city were in a state of uncertainty and discussed animatedly. Even more people looked towards the direction of the City Lord’s Mansion, wanting to know what kind of statement the City Lord’s Mansion would give.
And at this moment, a rapid shout came from afar outside the city： “All of you quickly enter the city without delay！”
This voice was shouted several times in a row, as if it was very urgent, and the voice was full of vigor, almost spreading throughout the entire Fenglin City.
“It’s the voice of Vice City Lord Drunken Wine Old Man！”
After some warriors recognized the owner of the voice, their expressions turned solemn, and they immediately rushed to the top of the city wall. Looking into the distance, in a short while, the city wall was filled with people.
The next moment, exclamations rose and fell one after another.
“Look, Vice City Lord seems to be being chased by something.”
“My God, what on earth is that thing? It’s a pitch-black mass！”
“Even Vice City Lord is no match？”
Just as everyone was discussing, Drunken Old Man had rushed to the front of Fenglin City. The warrior in charge of controlling the formation barrier saw this and immediately opened a gap in front of him. Drunken Old Man’s figure flickered, and he shot into the city along the gap.
After he entered, the cracked gap quickly healed and returned to its original state.
At the same time, the pitch-black aura following closely behind Drunken Old Man also arrived here. Without reducing its speed, it directly hit the outermost light curtain.
Boom…
With a loud noise, the bright light curtain actually trembled slightly, and its color suddenly dimmed a lot, almost shattering. This scene fell into the eyes of the nearby warriors, and immediately scared them. Their complexions changed drastically, and they retreated one after another.
And the warriors control the array also quickly urges their own power and increased the input of their own power. It was only with great difficulty that they stabilized the trembling light curtain.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh…
Streamers of light streaked through the air from all directions within the city, clearly they were all powerhouses of Fenglin City who had perceived the commotion here.
City Lord Duan Yuanshan was the first to appear. Landing on the city wall, he stared ahead with a solemn expression, his eyelids twitching slightly.
On both sides of him, several powerhouses exuding the aura of the Dao Source Realm also appeared one by one. After seeing the terrifying scene in front of them, their complexions all changed drastically.
“City Lord Duan, what exactly are these things？” An old man with white hair asked.
This old man had the cultivation base of the first level of the Dao Source Realm. He was none other than the old ancestor of the Qin family, Qin Zhaoyang！ He was also the oldest-looking among the nearly ten Dao Source Realm powerhouses present. It seemed that his lifespan was not long, and there were even some age spots on his face.
This was extremely rare for a Dao Source Realm martial artist. Only those martial artists whose lifespan was about to reach its limit would have these physical changes.
“That’s right, City Lord Duan. Since you ordered the opening of the defensive formation in advance, you should have received some news, right？” Du Lishen, the old ancestor of the Du family, also asked beside him.
The Dao Source Realm powerhouses of the other aristocratic families also looked towards Duan Yuanshan, hoping that he could give an explanation.
“Demonic Qi！ The pure Demonic Qi of the ancient great demons！” Duan Yuanshan said with a heavy complexion, “It is said to have leaked out two thousand miles away！”
“The pure magic energy of the ancient great devil？” Upon hearing this, all the Dao Source Realm powerhouses changed their expressions drastically.
“This city lord just received the news. Don’t ask me where exactly these magic energy came from. I don’t know. I only know that if we don’t work together, Fenglin City will be in danger today！”
As soon as these words came out, many Dao Source Realm experts all had a solemn expression.
Duan Yuanshan turned his head and looked around： “Everyone here is also the leader of their respective families. There are many clansmen of your families still in the city. You don’t want to see them being eroded by the magic energy and losing their sanity from now on, do you？”
“Naturally！” Qin Zhaoyang was the first to express his stance, “However, as for how to resist the enemy, please show us clearly, City Lord！”
“That’s right. The pure magic energy of the ancient great devil, this is the first time we have encountered it. We don’t know what kind of means to use to expel it most effectively.” Liang Pengle of the Liang family said with a cold expression.
“This…” Duan Yuanshan was at a loss for words for a while. Although he was at the second level of the Dao Source Realm and his cultivation was higher than that of the others present, the pure magic energy of the ancient great devil, like the others, he was also encountering it for the first time. How to effectively expel it, how could he know.
“Brother Duan, it’s better to consolidate the defense line first and talk about the rest slowly！” The Drunken Old Man had long since lost his drunkenness and was now more sober than ever.
“Exactly.” Duan Yuanshan’s eyes lit up and he said, “Everyone, please find a section of the city wall and assist others in strengthening the defensive formation. I will go and find someone to inquire about some information！”
As he spoke, Duan Yuanshan winked at the Drunken Old Man. The Drunken Old Man understood and immediately called the crowd to come forward and start researching.
In a short while, the martial artists of the Origin Realm had determined their respective defensive areas and dispersed.
However, the Drunken Old Man’s expression flickered. It seemed that he remembered something and hurriedly rushed towards the direction of the City Lord’s Mansion.
The sudden change outside the city had long been known by many martial artists in the city. Word spread quickly, and soon, all the martial artists in Fenglin City knew some of the situation. Naturally, there were hot-blooded martial artists who heeded the call and went to the city wall to assist in the defense.
For a while, the city wall of Fenglin City was overcrowded.
At the same time, in front of the Spirit Pill Workshop, Yang Kai and Mo Xiaoqi returned. With a sweep of his divine sense, Yang Kai knew that Kang Siran and the people from the Spirit Pill Workshop were already ready and had even boarded the building ship.
He gestured to Mo Xiaoqi, and Mo Xiaoqi immediately stepped into the building ship.
Just as he was about to enter the building ship, he suddenly looked aside thoughtfully.
Over there, among the onlookers, a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance was quietly looking at him. When their eyes met, the middle-aged man’s mouth slightly raised, revealing a strange smile.
Yang Kai couldn’t help but frown.
He felt extremely strange about this middle-aged man and was certain that he had never seen this person before. It was just that… this person was actually a martial artist at the Third-Order Dao Source Realm, which really made people feel a bit incredible.
Powerful experts of this level rarely appeared in Fenglin City. Except for the last time when the Luanfeng appeared in Yuqing Mountain and attracted countless powerful existences to come and investigate, it was very unlikely that a Third-Order Dao Source Realm expert would pass by the entire Fenglin City in a year.
But now, there was one in the crowd, and it seemed that he was somewhat interested in himself, which made Yang Kai a bit felt uncertain.
However, he didn’t think too much about it and quickly boarded the building ship and controlled the building ship to rush outwards.
After the building ship left, the middle-aged man coldly smiled and muttered to himself in a voice that others simply couldn’t hear: It’s really hard to find anything, but it comes effortlessly. I didn’t expect that after more than half a year without any clues, I would encounter the Young Palace Master’s building ship here today. It seems that you should know something?
This middle-aged man was the powerful expert dispatched by the Flying Saint Palace more than half a year ago to investigate the murderer who killed Ning Yuancheng!
He followed the clues and easily found out that Ning Yuancheng’s last appearance was at the auction in Fenglin City, so he naturally rushed all the way to Fenglin City.
However, more than half a year has passed, and he hasn’t found out any other useful information.
Who would have thought that today, by coincidence, he actually saw Ning Yuancheng’s secret treasure of the building ship in the city！
He doesn’t think Yang Kai has the ability to kill Ning Yuancheng. After all, there was a Liu Yizhi of the second level of the Dao Source Realm guarding beside Ning Yuancheng at that time. With Yang Kai’s cultivation base, he shouldn’t have this ability. But he thinks that since Yang Kai can get Ning Yuancheng’s building ship, he must know some information.
So he is somewhat interested in Yang Kai.
There are many people and eyes in the city, so it’s not convenient to do it. He is going to follow and then make plans.
At the city wall, Yang Kai controlled the building ship and flew here. But as soon as he saw the situation outside, his heart suddenly sank！
Because at this moment, the boundless ancient magic energy has surrounded the entire Fenglin City tightly, without the slightest gap. If you look down from the high altitude, Fenglin City at this moment is like having an additional solid city wall made of black materials.
That black city wall is constantly wriggling and flowing, stretching for dozens of miles. Any living being that rushes into it is probably more fortunate than good.
Although the grade of the secret treasure of the battleship is not low and it is also attached with some defensive restrictions, if he rushes in like this recklessly, Yang Kai privately calculates that except for himself, everyone else will surely suffer misfortunes.
“Brother Yang…” Kang Siran obviously also discovered this situation and suddenly said with a somewhat pale face, “What should we do？”
“Alas, it’s still too late!” Mo Xiaoqi bit her red lip lightly, with a look of annoyance on her face and at the same time cursed that Zhuang Pan to pieces in her heart.
If they hadn’t wasted so much time with Zhuang Pan at that time, perhaps they would still have had a chance to leave this place before the demonic energy surrounded the city, but now, it’s too late.
Inside the battleship, pairs of eyes also looked towards Yang Kai.
At this time and place, Yang Kai’s cultivation level was the highest, and he had become their backbone.
Although Yang Kai’s face was cold and stern, there was not much panic in it.
Because even if he was cornered in the end, he could still send everyone here into the Little Profound Realm and go through the blockade of this demonic energy alone by himself.
Using the power of space, Yang Kai had an 80% chance of being able to escape safely！
But in this way, the huge secret of the Profound Realm Pearl would not be able to be hidden. The people of the Zhang family were easy to talk about. After all, they regarded Yang Kai as their benefactor. If Yang Kai asked them not to reveal the secret of the Profound Realm Pearl, they would surely swear to agree and keep their mouths shut.
