Chapter 148: Chapter 148: From Dutiful Senior Sister to Demon Cultivator 22

”Form the array!”

”We absolutely can’t let him escape.”

Yin Tianyun shouted loudly.

In fact, earlier they had already worked together to set up an array around, precisely to prevent Lin Mingxi from escaping. Now this array formation is naturally used to attack Lin Mingxi.

He was surrounded in the center but still wore a smile.

His clothes were tattered, but he didn’t care.

He glanced at people from various sects and laughed, saying, ”Are you ashamed and angry? You really have good luck; Yun Chen saved you once, preventing me from breaking the fixed secret realm array. But don’t be too pleased with yourselves; sooner or later, I will break through it.”

”Speaking of which, you are really useless. Guarding such a treasure place for so many years, our demon cultivators actually have the tendency to rise again. If you were determined to join forces to clean up the whole cultivation world, you wouldn’t be in this situation now.”

”Since you gave us the chance, we won’t be polite.”

”That secret realm, sooner or later, we demon cultivators will also be able to enter and take a walk. The things inside are really good, and I like them a lot.”

”Take action, we won’t waste words with him.” Yin Tianyun’s gaze turned fierce, ”As long as we kill you, this matter will be resolved. You think you can leave? Wishful thinking!”

”Even though I’ve lost half of my strength, I’m not someone you can kill.” Lin Mingxi sneered, and his figure flashed, suddenly appearing by the disciples of the Lingxiao Sect. He quickly scanned these young disciples and his eyes lit up when he saw Gu Yu, grabbing him, and began absorbing Gu Yu’s cultivation.

Gu Yu couldn’t break free at all. How could he, with Golden Core Stage cultivation, resist? In an instant, most of his cultivation was gone.

”How dare you!” Zou Yi shouted angrily, rushing over, and slammed a palm towards Lin Mingxi’s head, not even intending to save the person. If this palm landed, Lin Mingxi would be injured without a doubt, and Gu Yu would also be affected.

Lin Mingxi chuckled and casually threw Gu Yu, who had a bit of cultivation left, towards Zou Yi.

Zou Yi naturally couldn’t slam his palm onto his disciple in front of everyone, so he had to retract his spiritual power and catch the pale-faced Gu Yu. The rest rushed up again, surrounding Lin Mingxi once more.

But he said, ”A bit useless, should’ve known better than to absorb your young cultivation, waste of my time.”

”Absorbing yours would be better.” He looked at Yin Tianyun and others, ”The cultivation growth is much more significant.”

Though he wasn’t a devouring cultivator demon cultivator, he was one who absorbed cultivators’ cultivation. He simply found devouring cultivators disgusting, just thinking about it made him nauseous.

Yin Tianyun and others were very angry, but also more vigilant. They always hated and guarded against demon cultivators.

Today, Lin Mingxi trampled their pride into the ground, and they absolutely cannot let him walk away from here.

The two parties finally engaged in battle, the fight was chaotic and intense.

Lin Mingxi, having lost half of his strength, couldn’t escape in time, but the various sects also couldn’t immediately destroy him. After dozens of rounds of back and forth, both sides were wounded.

”Be careful, he is a demon cultivator; avoid falling for his tricks.”

The words fell and the fighting resumed.

Younger cultivators unable to participate in the battle moved to one side, where one of the powerful cultivators had set up an array for them. So this time, Lin Mingxi couldn’t easily run over to absorb their cultivation.

In the crowd, Gu Yu’s face was bloodless.

Originally, improving a bit of cultivation wasn’t easy, and during this trip to the Lingxiao Secret Realm, he gained some benefits, but not much. Yet now, most of his cultivation had been absorbed, such a massive loss.

Lin Mingxi was truly hateful. With so many people here, anyone could have been targeted for absorption, why him, of all people? Earlier, Ling Kewei was next to him; why didn’t he go for Ling Kewei? Ling Kewei has High Grade Fire Spirit Root, and his cultivation reached Soul Emergence, definitely more beneficial than absorbing himself.

Gu Yu’s face was gloomy, fists clenched, eyes glaring hatefully at Lin Mingxi, who was besieged by various sects, wishing for the opponent to be immediately killed by them.

Ah Chen took a glance at the battle over there and then continued observing the array with Ying Zhefeng.

They were not in a rush to break the array, after all, the fight had just begun.

If they started dismantling the array now, it definitely wouldn’t escalate into a full conflict, better to wait until both sides are heavily wounded, or one side gains an absolute advantage before breaking the array.

”What do you think?” Ah Chen asked Ying Zhefeng, referring to how long it would take to break the array.

Ying Zhefeng pondered for a moment and said, ”If I use my sword, it should take seven strikes, with each one executed with full strength. After all, it was set up by capable individuals back then, not simple.”

”You’re impressive, only needing seven strikes.” Ah Chen praised.

Ying Zhefeng modestly said, ”The array has taken some damage earlier, hasn’t recovered fully, so I’m taking advantage of that.”

”In a while, we’ll attack the array together.” Ah Chen conjured a familiar jade green bamboo segment in her hands, ”Everyone says this is an Immortal treasure, maybe it will be very useful.”

Ying Zhefeng took a closer look at the bamboo segment and praised, ”Indeed extraordinary.”

As for where it came from, he didn’t ask, wasn’t too curious, instead, felt happy for her having such a treasure. With such a powerful treasure, she had more means of self-defense against those intending to harm her, they would only self-defeat.

With this matter decided, they both turned their attention back to the battle there.

Lin Mingxi and the strong cultivators from various sects were already wounded, and from Lin Mingxi’s movements, it seemed he wanted to leave, occasionally attacking the surrounding array.

It’s understandable, as not all from various sects had shown up today.

Before they started fighting, they must have already informed their sects of the situation here.

The Lingxiao Secret Realm is involved, no sect would sit idly by, especially the three largest sects with the most allocated spots, any issue with the Lingxiao Secret Realm would greatly impact them.

Lin Mingxi had certainly taken this into account, and despite his unwillingness, he wanted to avoid further entanglement with them.

Seeing both sides so battered, Ah Chen’s eyes held a smile and she felt quite joyous, no matter who got uncomfortable, she was quite delighted.

Lin Mingxi sealed the Demon Pearl in the commissioner’s soul, likely for two reasons; one was to store his strength, not believing the commissioner could detect or utilize the Demon Pearl. The second was to prevent soul-searching on the commissioner, creating the false impression that the commissioner might be a demon cultivator or knew some secrets about them, mainly to divert attention.

Last time he came to the forbidden area, he likely intended to test the array here, in case it worked, he wouldn’t have to wait for the Secret Realm to open.

He was discovered, but he had anticipated this, otherwise, he wouldn’t have had the commissioner take the fall.

Seeing Lin Mingxi now only targeting the array, Yin Tianyun shouted once more, ”He’s panicking, don’t let him escape.”

”People from all major sects are already on the way, you can’t escape!”

Lin Mingxi looked ugly, cursing under his breath, truly being tripped up by that honest Senior Sister Yun.

If not for losing that half of his power, how could he have been so pitiful?

Since these people wouldn’t let him go, he’d have to fight them, they were the ones who forced his hand.

Lin Mingxi quickly performed complex and mysterious spells, his entire demeanor becoming more sinister, now indeed resembling a demon cultivator.

Yin Tianyun and others continued their assault while maintaining their guard.

Especially as Lin Mingxi halted his attack on the array and instead charged into the crowd to fight them, which made them even more cautious.

Just then, Zou Yi moved to Lin Mingxi’s rear and launched a surprise attack on his back. As the palm landed on Lin Mingxi’s back, he was momentarily stunned, then his expression drastically changed.
