431 Destruction of the Conspiracy
“Where do you think you’re going!”
The people from the Divine Fire Sect shouted and raised their hands to release flames that filled the sky. They formed a large area and covered the phoenix.
They joined forces and formed a curtain of flames, determined to block Huo Feng and Li Yuanqing.
Li Yuanqing waved his hand and a layer of light appeared in front of him. These people opposite him were aggressive and not to be trifled with. Li Yunqing was already prepared to run at any time and hide in his domain space.
He was hesitating if he should bring Senior Huo Feng along if he ran away. He wondered if he could withstand such a crowd if he left him alone here.
Just as Li Yuanqing was about to make a move, the fire phoenix suddenly let out a loud cry. This voice resounded through the sky and turned into a substantial shock wave that spread out.
The Heavenly Masters of the Divine Fire Sect were temporarily slowed down by the wave.
The fire phoenix suddenly flapped its wings and slammed into the wall of fire that connected heaven and earth.
“Fellow Daoists! You must stop this phoenix outside. Don’t hold back!”
They abandoned their concentration and poured all their strength into the fire curtain that filled the sky.
Under their burning gazes, the fire phoenix finally collided with the fire wall. They thought that they had already tried their best to condense such a thick wall of fire and would definitely be able to refine the fire phoenix.
However, to their surprise, the phoenix seemed to be transparent and passed through the fire wall unscathed.
Everyone who was ready to attack was shocked when they saw this scene. They could not believe what they saw.
In this moment of daze, the fire phoenix’s entire body had already passed through the fire wall and flew straight towards the cauldron.
Light slowly condensed in the huge alchemy furnace.
As soon as this thing appeared, the world darkened.
A pitch-black abyss was born in the center of the alchemy furnace. The abyss devoured everything. Not only did it devour all the light from outside, but it also devoured all the surrounding light.
The originally bright alchemy furnace gradually dimmed, and all the power was about to return to that point.
The green-robed man stared at the last bit with a burning gaze. They were just one step away from success.
However, at this moment, the Fire Phoenix suddenly appeared in his line of sight. Behind the Fire Phoenix, the dozen or so humans were chasing in vain, but they did not have any methods to stop the Phoenix.
“All of you, attack. You must stop it!”
The green-robed man’s face was ashen. He did not expect that the fellow would still be able to break through so easily even after he had sent so many people.
This fire phoenix contained a very powerful force that made him feel a little terrified.
If this phoenix really flew into the alchemy furnace, all their previous efforts might really be in vain. He would definitely not allow this to happen.
The remaining heavenly masters also soared into the sky, splitting into many rows in the sky.
They all picked up their weapons. Light shone from their bodies and gathered in the sky. They kept weaving until they formed a bright net. The huge net descended from the sky and was about to capture the phoenix.
However, at this moment, a bolt of lightning suddenly fell from the clean sky and hit the net. The middle of the net was pierced by the golden lightning.
The fire phoenix was enveloped by the colorful net, but it successfully crawled out of the hole.
Everyone was shocked when they saw this. They wanted to reach out and make up for it, but it was too late.
Huo Feng raised his left hand and eagerly drew a symbol on the palm of his left hand with his right middle finger. He raised his left hand again and pointed at the Fire Phoenix from afar.
The fire phoenix, which was originally not running fast, suddenly increased its speed as if it was injected with medicine and collided with the alchemy furnace.
The moment the flaws of people from the Divine Fire Sect appeared, the Fire Phoenix had already arrived in front of the alchemy furnace. It turned into a flame and pierced through the talisman covering the outside.
“No!”
The green-robed man watched in despair as his talisman was torn apart. He let out a loud roar and pulled out his sword. He slashed out a sharp sword light, but the sword light missed.
The alchemy furnace’s originally stable situation instantly changed after the fire phoenix entered. The center that was about to stabilize suddenly became restless again.
Thousands of lights spread out from inside and kept escaping. The energy instantly became chaotic.
The light that shot out was very dazzling, making the alchemy furnace as dazzling as the sun.
When everyone saw this, they fled outside. They had worked hard for so long, but they did not expect to end up like this.
The people from the Divine Fire Sect knew very well how much fire-attribute energy was contained inside. Now that the stability of the Ultimate Fire Gathering Pill had been destroyed in the alchemy furnace, there was only one way left for them: self-destruct.
Seeing this, Huo Feng was overjoyed. Without hesitation, he pulled Li Yuanqing and ran out without looking back.
“Kid, you really have some skills. If not for your sudden intervention just now, they would have succeeded!”
Huo Feng looked at Li Yuanqing in surprise. Only then did he have the time to talk to Li Yuanqing.
The Dharma Origin Idol that Li Yuanqing had suddenly summoned just now had really contributed greatly.
Although the Dharma Idol did not cause any substantial damage to them, it seriously disturbed their rhythm and bought time for the two of them.
Huo Feng did not expect that this very inconspicuous fellow, Li Yuanqing, who was only at the peak of the Formation Arrangement Realm, would be able to provide them with so much help.
Li Yuanqing could not help but look back and answer casually, “Thank you for your praise, Senior. It’s just a smokescreen. It’s good for tricking people, but it’s useless.”
“Your thing is not a simple smokescreen. It can fool so many people at once. I was even fooled by you. Good kid, you’re really not simple.”
“Senior, what about the alchemy furnace behind?”
“Don’t worry, they’re too ambitious. The power of the Fire Gathering Pill refined is too strong. If my Fire Phoenix goes in and stirs up the power inside, they won’t be able to hold on.”
“And Senior Wang Lan?”
“Don’t worry. That old fellow is smarter than anyone else. He was the first to run away when the situation over there went wrong. Let’s hurry to the front of the battlefield. I think it’s time for us to be there.”
As the two of them spoke, they turned into meteors and headed towards the Cloud Sky Sect.
“Supremacy!”
A person who looked like a guard knelt respectfully in front of the green-robed man and begged, “Supremacy, leave quickly. If you don’t, this place will explode!”
The green-robed man gritted his teeth and looked at the alchemy furnace. This was all in their calculations. There would not be any mistakes. But how did it become like this?
“It’s over.” The green-robed man muttered to himself in the sky in a daze.
“Supremacy, you can’t do this. The Sect Master is still waiting for you!”
“It’s all over.”
“Supremacy!”
“This Fire Pill has gathered so much of our hard work and was destroyed just like that.”
“Supremacy, it’ll be too late if we don’t leave now. Please order us to retreat as soon as possible!”
The green-robed man’s dull eyes suddenly came back to life. He looked at his subordinates kneeling at his knees and slowly regained his senses.
“Leave quickly. All of you, retreat!”
“Supremacy! I’m willing to advance and retreat with you!”
“I’m going to capture those three people! I want them to suffer!”
The green-robed man looked in the direction Li Yuanqing and the others had left from afar. His eyes were red and bloodshot.
At this moment, in the Cloud Sky Sect on the other side.
The people on both sides waited anxiously.
Wang Tieyuan tightly arranged his subordinates to carry out defense checks. They kept mobilizing their people, hoping to defend for a long time.
Outside, Fang Yunlong looked in the direction of the valley anxiously. Logically speaking, they should have already prepared and brought the Fire Gathering Pill over. But why hadn’t they come after waiting for so long? The good time was about to pass. What were they doing?
The more Fang Yunlong thought about it, the more anxious he felt. He did not know what had happened.
For some reason, the purple-robed Supremacy behind him could still sit there like nothing had happened.
“I say, Zi Ling! It’s already quarter past noon. Why isn’t there any news? What happened?”
Supremacy Zi Ling walked to the clouds and looked in the direction of the valley. At this moment, a violent explosion swept over. The dark clouds in the sky were shattered by the aftermath of the explosion. The originally dark sky directly rained.
The pouring rain fell on the dense forest below, extinguishing the raging flames.
“What happened?”
“Something seems to have happened in the valley.”
“What is it that can be so powerful?”
Everyone in the clouds looked into the distance in shock. They were waiting anxiously for the good news, but it seemed like they would never get the good news.
Fang Yunlong turned around with a livid expression and looked at Supremacy Zi Ling.
“Zi Ling! Shouldn’t you explain to me what happened?”
Fang Yunlong’s body was trembling. His face was almost the color of pig liver. He looked very scary.
Supremacy Zi Ling’s face was also ashen. He stared blankly in that direction, seemingly at a loss. According to the plan, they should have finished refining the Fire Gathering Pill by now and arrived here under the escort of the Supremacy Qing Ling. After he was in position, they would start moving immediately.
However, why wasn’t that thing transported over as planned and exploded a step ahead?
“What happened?”
Supremacy Zi Ling could not understand either.
Fang Yunlong grabbed his collar and glared at him angrily. “How dare you say such words at a time like this! I shouldn’t have believed the words of your Divine Fire Sect back then. You’ll always be an unranked sect. Now that you’ve relied on some crooked methods to increase your strength, you want to reach the heavens in a single bound? What do you think you are!”
Fang Yunlong’s words were like a heavy hammer that smashed heavily into Supremacy Zi Ling’s heart. His eyes, which were already red, seemed to have exploded. His heart was beating even faster. Even from afar, he could hear the thumping of his heart.
“You bastard, I should have captured all of you back then. Let’s see how arrogant you can still be!”
Fang Yunlong’s scolding was not enough to vent his anger. He gritted his teeth and glared at Zi Ling. He shouted at the people behind him, “Catch everyone from the Divine Fire Sect!”
“Today’s matter was all caused by the people of the Divine Fire Sect. They forced us to do it. It has nothing to do with Fang North Mountain. We were only used by these crooked methods!”
Fang Yunlong saw that the situation was wrong, so he immediately throw away all responsibility. Now, he even wanted to capture the people of the Divine Fire Sect and wash his hands of the matter first.
Supremacy Zi Ling, who was originally standing motionless, suddenly began to twist his body very slightly.
Fang Yunlong thought that he had seen it wrongly and looked carefully again. He clearly saw something bulging under Supremacy Zi Ling’s thick cloak, as if something was swimming back and forth on the surface of his body.
“Men! Hurry and join forces with me and subdue him as soon as possible!”
As Fang Yunlong spoke, he took out a golden ring saber and landed in front of Supremacy Zi Ling.
The other disciples also split up with him and surrounded him.
“Zi Ling! I advise you not to attack if you know what’s good for you. I still want to leave your corpse intact. Don’t take things too hard!”
For some reason, Fang Yunlong felt a little timid, so he warned.
At this moment, the silent Supremacy Zi Ling suddenly bent down. His mouth opened wide and he let out a strange laugh. His laughter was like the sound of metal tearing as two broken gongs came together and tore at each other.
This ear-piercing laughter tortured everyone at the side.
“What are you waiting for? Hurry up and do it!”
Everyone landed in their positions and took out their weapons. They first used powerful strength to cover Supremacy Zi Ling, wanting to control him first.
However, at this moment, Supremacy Zi Ling’s tall body was suddenly pressed to the ground by the pressure of Fang Yunlong’s domain.
Fang Yunlong clearly saw a black shadow escape from his body.
The pool of mud on the ground looked like a shell.
