Chapter 532: Alliance

Wang Chen focused his mindset, and the door of the Wei Hall silently opened.

The sect rules of the West Sea Sect were strict, not only prohibiting disciples from harming each other but also obligating them to assist those in distress.

Yun Feifei ran to the entrance seeking help. Given their good relationship, it was his duty to aid her, even if they had been strangers.

Seeing the door open, Yun Feifei and the two other female cultivators felt an immediate sense of relief and swiftly entered the Wei Hall.

Wang Chen promptly closed the door and reactivated the defensive formations.

He stood up and left the control room, stepping into the main hall.

"Wang Shixiong…"

Yun Feifei and the two other female cultivators were in the hall. Upon seeing Wang Chen, she greeted him with a graceful bow and said, "Thank you!"

"You’re welcome," Wang Chen replied with a wave of his hand. "It’s only natural for sect members to help each other."

He nodded to the female cultivator standing beside Yun Feifei, "Sun Shimei, it’s good to see you again."

This was Sun Yulian, who had previously purchased spiritual rice from him.

Sun Yulian blushed slightly, "Wang Shixiong."

Wang Chen’s gaze then shifted to the third female cultivator.

She was tall and graceful, her face veiled, revealing only a pair of eyes that sparkled like stars.

"Wang Shixiong, let me introduce you," Yun Feifei said, "This is Senior Sister Li Mengyan."

Li Mengyan was an inner sect disciple who had entered the Underworld Realm for training a year ago. Assigned to an area for expansion adjacent to Yun Feifei’s, they had become acquainted and formed a small team for the mission to eliminate the Evil Nests.

Female cultivators generally had weaker combat abilities, making the destruction of Evil Nests occupied by evil spirits more challenging and perilous. Thus, forming a team was the optimal strategy.

Li Mengyan, with her high cultivation level and earlier arrival, led this team of female cultivators.

Together, they battled the Evil Nests in their area for expansion.

They had previously succeeded in destroying one Evil Nest, but while tackling the second, a sudden surge of sinister energy caused significant losses to their unprepared team.

Yun Feifei, Li Mengyan, and Sun Yulian narrowly escaped but found their return route to their Wei Hall blocked, forcing them to seek refuge with Wang Chen.

"Junior Sister Zhang and Senior Sister Wang have met with misfortune…"

Yun Feifei’s eyes reddened as she spoke, "If I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have led everyone into the mountains."

Her guilt was palpable.

"This is not your fault," Li Mengyan stated coldly. "No one anticipated such an accident, but it occurred; it’s all part of fate."

Yun Feifei wiped her tears and remained silent.

The atmosphere in the hall grew heavy.

Wang Chen sighed and said, "Senior Sister Li, Junior Sister Yun, Junior Sister Sun, our current situation is perilous, and safety here is not assured."

"Are you planning to stay here with me to defend Wei Hall, or should we break through to Wei Fa City?"

Yun Feifei and Sun Yulian exchanged glances.

Neither of them had much decisiveness, so they looked towards Li Mengyan.

Li Mengyan pondered for a moment and said, "The situation is unclear. We haven’t received any orders from the sect’s law hall. Instead of risking a breakout, it may be better to stay and wait for reinforcements. What do you think, Shidi?"

Wang Chen nodded, "Agreed!"

It was clear that this Senior Sister Li had a very calm mind, unaffected by the sudden emergency.

In Wang Chen’s view, staying at Wei Hall was indeed better than risking a breakout!

Li Mengyan continued, "Then I must trouble you during this time, Shidi. If there is anything we can assist with, we won’t hesitate to help!"

Yun Feifei and Sun Yulian nodded in unison.

Wang Chen smiled and said, "We are all in this together, so there’s no need for formality."

Boom!

Just as he finished speaking, Wei Hall suddenly shook, and countless dust particles fell.

Oh no!

Wang Chen cursed internally, immediately activating the water mirror to check.

He saw a large number of evil spirits gathering from all directions, including those that liked to throw rocks, which he had previously repelled. They waved their long tentacles, rushing to the front and throwing large stones towards Wei Hall.

Alongside these giants were various strange colossal creatures, some emanating black smoke, some resembling lions or tigers, and others appearing like giants, with their roars echoing incessantly.

It felt as though all the magical spirits and evil spirits of the Underworld Realm had mobilized!

"Follow me quickly!"

Wang Chen, without thinking, led Li Mengyan and the two other female cultivators to the control room, saying in a deep voice, "Senior Sister Li, Junior Sisters, I entrust the defense here to you. I will go to the tower to fight!"

The Wei Hall constructed by Wang Chen was built with the spirit tool provided by the sect, though small, it was fully equipped, especially in terms of defense.

The control room was the hub for managing the formations, and the tower was the combat unit. However, before, Wang Chen could only defend from the control room alone, unable to utilize the tower’s capabilities.

Now, with the control of the defensive formations handed over to Li Mengyan and the others, he could focus on fighting.

Both Li Mengyan and the others understood the seriousness of the situation and said nothing unnecessary, immediately taking their positions at different nodes of the formations and channeling their magical power to enhance it.

Their Wei Hall had the same layout as Wang Chen’s, so once they gained control of the formations, there were no obstacles in operating it, allowing them to start immediately.

The defensive formation suddenly blazed with brilliance, and the entire building emitted a faint glow, creating a magical barrier that blocked all the incoming stone bullets.

After entrusting the control center to the three female cultivators, Wang Chen quickly rushed to the tower.

The tower was located to the left of the stargazing platform, seamlessly integrated with Wei Hall. From the outside, it merely appeared as a prominent part of Wei Hall, with a tower top designated as the position for the cultivators, which had a formation node set up.

When Wang Chen reached the top of the tower, the brass mirrors embedded in the four walls lit up simultaneously.

The mirrors showed the scene outside.

At this moment, the army of giants was merely a few hundred steps away, appearing like waves of black torrents surging up the slope, trampling over the spirit fields that Wang Chen had painstakingly cultivated, trying to engulf the Wei Hall that was perched atop the rocky hill!

"Lightning come!"

Wang Chen immediately formed a spell gesture and unleashed the Sky Thunder with all his might.

Atop the tower, he could access the full power of the formations to amplify his spellcasting.

Compared to when he was in the control room, Wang Chen could observe more comprehensively here, cast spells faster, and deliver greater potency.

In the next moment, dazzling lightning struck down, pounding the attacking giants above the Wei Hall.

One by one, the giants were hit by the lightning, either turning to dust, shattering into pieces, or being pierced through their bodies, howling as they fell to the ground.
