After all, at this ti, True Immortal Ruyi was suffering because of Sun Wukong’s doing, his bizarre weapon destroyed, and after experiencing a fierce battle with the Mysterious Person, if they could not reclaim the Infertility Spring now, it might beco as difficult as ascending to the heavens once True Immortal Ruyi recovered.
Looking at the Mountain Protection Array before them, several people frowned and said, "It seems this Daoist magic formation wasn’t here last ti."
"It’s likely set up not long ago, probably because the disciple of the Holy Monk of the Great Tang scared them out of their wits," the leading woman conjectured.
Just thinking about that disciple nad Sun Wukong beside the Holy Monk, she felt a chill, as those demon-god-like eyes were still etched deeply in her mind.
It was highly possible that their movents had been noticed by Sun Wukong, but fortunately, they had been cautious and did not set their sights on Tan Sanzang, which allowed them to remain unscathed.
After all, even the Lady of Pipa Cave had been wiped out by him.
She quickly shook her head, pushing the flicker of fear to the bottom of her heart. Now was not the ti to think about these things. They had to seize this once-in-a-lifeti opportunity to take back the Infertility Spring, or else with the imbalance of Yin and Yang Energy, death would loom close.
"It’s a pity that Leng Qingyue can’t be utilized by us; with the Wish Power she has accumulated over so many years, she would be strong enough to contend with True Immortal Ruyi," one of the won lanted with a long sigh.
"She is soone who truly devotes herself to Maiden’s Country and is destined not to join us; had we not dealt with her, she would sooner or later stand against us."
"There’s no use talking about that now. We must focus on breaking the array."
They took their positions at the four corners, mana surging from their bodies, a special kind of mana with a strange power that seed to dissolve everything.
This was one of the gains they had acquired in Maiden’s Country. Affected by the Yin and Yang Energy, their mana underwent a transformation, seemingly capable of reverting all things back to Yin and Yang.
This mana erged and began to silently erode the power of Juxian Temple’s formation, advancing like wildfire, assaulting and overrunning, and within monts, the formation was corroded to its last breath.
However, just at this mont, a rune suddenly lit up with intense brightness, followed by a thunderous boom echoing around Jieyang Mountain.
Although True Immortal Ruyi was born in the Demon Clan, his elder brother was the Great Sage Pingtian. Through his connections with King Niumo, his exposure and knowledge were not inferior to those of the Immortal disciples.
Having occupied the Infertility Spring, how could he not probe its secrets? Though he was not a traditional cultivator, his understanding of the practice of cultivation was not shallow, and he naturally comprehended sothing unique to himself.
And this rune was one of his gains, which demonstrated its extraordinary effect this ti.
The entire Juxian Temple seed shaken to its core, the violent noise awakening True Immortal Ruyi, who was resting inside a room.
His first thought was that Lin Fang had not kept his word and made a covert move, but then he reconsidered, it didn’t make sense. Given the situation at that ti, if Lin Fang had wished, he would have already made his move without feinting.
When he ca out and saw several won wearing hooded cloaks, his anger flared up, shouting, "It’s you lot again, ti and ti again coming to my door to kill !"
Recalling that assassination attempt, which was the closest he had ever been to death in his life, the mory was still fresh, and although he had slain the assassin on the spot, flayed and dismbered, it still didn’t quell the resentnt in his heart.
Seeing their familiar attire, how could he not guess that these people were the ones scheming behind the scenes?
"Hand over the Infertility Spring, or today will be your last day alive."
A few horse voices rose, yet True Immortal Ruyi burst into laughter, "So it is indeed for the Infertility Spring. I see that the Yin and Yang Energy in you is imbalanced. You probably want to steal the creation of Yin and Yang, little do you know that the creation of Heaven and Earth isn’t sothing so easily taken. If you want the Infertility Spring, co and get it yourself."
After speaking, her figure flashed and she charged toward the crowd, her fierce fist winds sweeping in all directions.
However, these few won were well-prepared. They quickly dispersed in all directions, standing in a special formation. The mana from the sa source interwove in the void, forming a strange array.
The land shrouded by the array was perated with Yin and Yang Energy, reverting everything it touched back to its origin, and True Immortal Ruyi was the target of this array’s attack.
Feeling the surging Yin and Yang Energy, True Immortal Ruyi couldn’t help but furrow her brow. These folks, hidden in the darkness for so many years, had indeed figured out quite a few things.
Yet, as the surging Yin and Yang Energy approached True Immortal Ruyi’s body, the sowhat emaciated Daoist revealed a grin, "I’m really being underestimated here."
Right where she stood, golden light suddenly emanated, connecting to the Infertility Spring hidden within Juxian Temple. The surging Solar Energy, following this connection, burst into the array, throwing the Yin and Yang Energy into chaos.
With a thunderous boom, the array maintained by the several won broke apart, the imnse force causing them to stagger backward, their corners of their mouths already dripping with fresh blood.
The won exchanged glances, each seeing the shock in the others’ eyes. The True Immortal Ruyi before them was proving to be quite a challenge.
"Since I’ve claid the Infertility Spring, the secrets of Maiden’s Country are naturally within my sight. And yet, you dare to confront with Yin and Yang Energy," True Immortal Ruyi let out a mocking laugh.
However, the won’s faces displayed bitter smiles. Of course, they were aware that their actions were a gamble, banking on the possibility that True Immortal Ruyi hadn’t occupied the Infertility Spring long enough to fully understand its secrets.
Since True Immortal Ruyi was very powerful, and these people were limited by their bodies, they had no better thod to deal with her, and could only resort to this desperate strategy.
"Eldest sister, we have co this far, it’s ti to reveal our hand," a woman covering her chest said hoarsely, enduring the pain.
For a mont, everyone’s eyes turned to the leading woman, who showed a trace of struggle on her face before finally sighing, "It seems there’s no other way."
No sooner had she spoken than she took out a small red wooden box from her bosom, which seed to be marked with mysterious runes, bound by a black iron chain.
With a light toss, the box instantly enlarged in mid-air, and True Immortal Ruyi realized that what appeared to be a box was actually a coffin.
The coffin suspended in mid-air emanated a rich scent of blood, and only then did True Immortal Ruyi notice that the red on the coffin was not paint but thick blood.
As the group of won chanted, the iron chains coiled around the coffin emitted dazzling light.
With a crisp snap, the iron chains broke and fell to the ground. It turned out that these iron chains were sealing the coffin, preventing anything inside from escaping.
True Immortal Ruyi frowned. He sensed a distasteful aura within the coffin. Although he was born into the Demon Clan and knew several monsters who enjoyed devouring humans, he had never encountered such a bloody scent—eerie and ominous.
