Before this, Li Chengfeng felt that if someone had asked him what was the scariest sound in the world, his answer would have been a myriad of strange ones, with three variations in a day.
But after this night, Li Chengfeng only had one answer: the sound of a copper bell!
Li Chengfeng felt his bones go numb when he heard the bell, his hair standing on end. It was as if a chill shot up from his tailbone to his head, causing his hair to stand on end!
Sun Yongcai's face was pale, his body trembling uncontrollably.
Li Chengfeng grabbed Sun Yongcai's collar and roared, "Where are the two junior brothers you saved?!
Aren't you going to save them?!
I'm telling you, I don't care if you live or die!
Die if you want to, don't drag us down with you! "
As he spoke, he left Sun Yongcai and ran.
Sun Yongcai's expression flickered. He saw Zuo Fei rush toward him and help him up. Zuo Fei stared at him for a moment, then nodded. Sun Yongcai nodded back, gritting his teeth. The two of them supported each other and struggled to catch up.
Li Chengfeng caught up to Yuehan in a few steps and quickly looked at her. Her face was as white as a sheet and the veins on her temples were bulging. Her skin had a translucent hue to it, it was a very strange sight.
He could not help but ask, "What's going on?
Didn't we just … "
As she ran, she said, "You were all affected by an illusion!"
Li Chengfeng looked back to see the dark fields getting further and further away. He could vaguely hear the sound of a copper bell in the dark night. "What illusion is this?
When did we fall for it?
Why does it look so real? "
Yuehan looked very weak as she gritted her teeth and said, "This is the Nine Hells Magic Array!
We fell for it the moment we saw Xi Mengcai! "
Li Chengfeng's heart chilled. "That's too scary!
How are we supposed to defend against illusionists in the future?
What about you?
Why didn't you fall for it?
Was it you who saved me from this illusion array first? "
Yuehan pursed her lips, hesitated for a moment, then said, "The Magical Nine Hells Array can't be defended against. Once it's activated, it'll be a life-or-death illusion array!"
He turned to stare at her. "Then how did you escape?
These are the top ten devils in the world! "
Yuehan pursed her lips tightly, not saying a word.
Li Chengfeng immediately realised something. He stared deeply at her, then turned towards Xiaobao who was supporting Han Tianxing. He slung Han Tianxing on his back and said to Xiaobao, "Go help Blockhead!
Let's hurry! "
As he spoke, Li Chengfeng turned his head and suddenly saw a blinding red figure appear in the dark night behind him.
Li Chengfeng's hair stood on end and his voice changed. "He's here, run!"
Everyone subconsciously turned their heads and saw Xi Mengcai's figure appearing in the distance. Instantly, they seemed to have forgotten the pain all over their bodies. It was as if they had been injected with a shot of adrenaline. In an instant, their bodies stiffened and they jumped up, fleeing frantically.
Even those who could not run were supporting Xi Mengcai, limping as they ran.
They did not want to fall into Xi Mengcai's control ever again. Whether it was the endless tide of corpses in the illusion realm or being trapped in the Treant's body and sucked dry as nutrients, they did not want to experience that again.
Mengcai had now become the scariest nightmare in their minds. Even without Li Chengfeng's reminder, they would run as fast as they could.
At the front of the group was Xiaobao and Ouyang Nan supporting Blockhead, while Li Chengfeng carried Han Tianxing and followed closely behind. Yuehan had almost used up all her energy in the battle with Xi Mengcai. Her face was pale and she swayed but she gritted her teeth and persevered.
Behind Yuehan were Su You and Tianjun, a pair of inseparable brothers. They couldn't tell who was supporting who, they were supporting each other, gritting their teeth as they struggled to escape. They didn't know where they could escape to, they only knew that they had to get as far away from Dream as possible.
Qin Mieqin supported Qiu Chuqiu. Both of them were rescued later but at least their cultivation levels were higher. Other than the initial discomfort, their bodies were slowly recovering and they ran faster and faster.
Sun Yongcai and Zuo Fei, who were the last to leave, quickly caught up to the two Hidden Sword disciples. Sun Yongcai shouted at the last person, "Quick!
We must return to Spiritual Mountain together! "
This defected disciple of Hidden Sword Court was also rescued very late, and his cultivation was relatively low. His body had already been severely corroded, and half of his face had almost been corroded. Sun Yongcai took a closer look and found that he could actually see the tongue in his mouth through the half of his face. The other disciple's eyelids had been corroded, and his eyeballs were swaying in their sockets, as if they were going to fall out at any moment.
Supported by another disciple, the disciple limped forward. He tried his best to speed up, but he was unable to. Sun Yongcai and the others gradually overtook him. Behind them, Mengcai's figure grew clearer and clearer. The terrifying ringing of the bronze bell grew louder and closer.
Both of them looked terrified. Finally, they mustered the last of their strength and ran as fast as they could, finally catching up to Li Chengfeng and the rest.
However, after frantically running for a few miles, they had already exhausted all their vitality. They began to be unable to keep up with the group and gradually fell behind.
In the end, they could only watch helplessly as Li Chengfeng and the rest ran further and further away. They could no longer even shout for Li Chengfeng and the rest to stop.
When they suddenly heard the ringing of a copper bell behind them, their bodies tensed up to the extreme and they subconsciously turned around to look!
In front of the two of them, Xi Mengcai's face was right behind them. He was grinning. His face was badly mutilated, as if he had just suffered a serious injury. Only his exaggerated red lips had split into a bloody mouth. Then, the blood-red cloak he was wearing flew up, covering the sky and earth as it pounced on them. Then, their vision went black, and they were trapped in eternal darkness.
Sun Yongcai and Zuo Fei were running slightly closer to them when they heard a muffled scream from behind them. Sun Yongcai subconsciously turned around, only to see that Xi Mengcai's huge red robe had already covered the bodies of the two traitorous disciples of Hidden Sword Court. Through the gaps in his red robe, Sun Yongcai could see that Xi Mengcai's body did not have the flesh and blood of a human. Instead, it was filled with eerie white bones. However, within those eerie white bones were squirming internal organs and a beating heart.
The two traitors of the Hidden Sword Court were sucked into his long robe, and their Yuan Qi was quickly sucked out. They were turned into dried meat, and turned into dried bones. Then, the long robe rolled them out and threw them on the ground, where they quickly turned into a pile of dust.
Meanwhile, the internal organs in Dream Master Xi's skeletal body began to glow with a blood-red aura. His face also began to give off a thick blood-red aura.
"No!"
Sun Yongcai's eyes were bloodshot. He immediately pulled out the sword on his back to fight but Zuo Fei pulled him along and ran for his life. Zuo Fei's eyes were brimming with tears as he screamed, "Senior Brother Sun!
Where there's life, there's hope!
If we die, no one will avenge our juniors! "
Sun Yongcai seemed convinced. With reddened eyes and tears, he looked deeply at Xi Mengcai, then wiped his tears and started running like a madman.
Li Chengfeng and the rest who were at the front of the group turned to look when they heard the commotion.
Yuehan was close to her limit too. She stopped for a moment and swayed, almost falling. Li Chengfeng quickly put Han Tianxing down and caught up to her.
Her face was pale, her lips trembling as she said, "Quick, set the fire!
The bigger the better! "
Li Chengfeng asked immediately, "He's afraid of fire?"
Yuehan shook her head, struggling to lift a finger and point in the direction of the Divine Capital.
Li Chengfeng understood immediately. This fire is for the capital to see, they have to get reinforcements!
