Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1012: Chapter 407: Whoever wins, we help; when the formation breaks and people die, we fight with all our might - Part 5

This hint of color was initially very faint, but as the light curtain trembled, trying to dispel this light, it became denser and denser.

Gradually, the multicolored light curtain grew more and more fragile.

Xiahou Kun’s mouth hung open, and by now he knew all too well that he had become the obvious bait.

Tuoba Lingfei and the other two were the concealed main force for the assault.

Zheng Xian watched the spreading black light on the light curtain with an excited expression on his face.

”With the Dry Fire True Evil Qi of my Flame Alliance, this array won’t last three days before it dissipates into smoke and clouds!”

Below him, over a thousand cultivators were also greatly stirred.

They shouted cries of ”Break Danxia, destroy Luo Tian”.

Zheng Xian lowered his head to look at Xiahou Kun, consoling him, ”It was Wang Yuan and Chu Kui who killed your Xiahou Family members. Once we break the big formation, we will surely avenge you. Should we seize the Core Formation Secret Art, friend, you may have the first look!”

With a bitter laugh, Xiahou Kun found himself silenced by those words, unable to say anything.

Amidst the anguish and anxiety of the Qi Refinement cultivators of the Xiahou Family, he walked into the Gathering Spirit Array.

Yet his silhouette, compared to the others, seemed all the more forlorn.

...

Meanwhile, atop Danxia Peak.

Spurt!

A mouthful of fresh blood was coughed out, and Min Longyu’s complexion was ashen to the extreme.

In recent days, controlling this big formation had already taken a great toll on him.

Today, the big formation had sustained consecutive heavy blows. Especially the permeation of the Dry Fire True Evil Qi had caused a terrifying impact on his mind and spirit because of their connection.

At this moment, he was seriously injured.

Struggling, he took several elixirs from his storage bag and swallowed them like a person eating dates.

”I cannot fall!”

”This big formation must hold on for as long as possible. I must buy enough time for our leader, or the Min Family’s destruction a century ago will repeat itself.”

As he was muttering to himself.

A gentle breeze suddenly stirred at his side.

And in a daze, a familiar figure was already standing in front of him.

”You’ve done your best, now reserve your Yuan Qi to prepare for tomorrow’s battle!”

”Tomorrow?”

Min Longyu was startled.

The figure nodded, a hand placed atop his head as a cool and gentle Spirit Power soaked into his body.

Like a spring breeze turning into rain, it silently nourished him, healing his injuries from controlling the formation over the past days as much as possible.

He closed his eyes, offering no resistance and wholly accepting the treatment from the other party.

In a murmuring voice, he asked, ”Leader, can we truly win this battle?”

”We can win!”

Luo Chen, who had been out of sight for a long time, had incredibly bright eyes at this moment.

His gaze moved from Min Longyu, piercing through the stone hut, seemingly seeing the figure in the distant sky that so eagerly wished to kill him and relish in the aftermath.

His robe sleeves fluttered without any wind. Only his confident voice echoed inside the stone hut.

”Even if we suffer heavy losses, even if Danxia collapses, we will surely win this battle!”

...

Night fell.

Outside, the continuous rumbling continued.

That was the noise of the Anti-Luo Alliance Army cultivators, doing everything in their power to deplete the Danxia Array, trying to hasten its demise.

Luo Chen was in Luo Tian Main Hall, looking at the information in his hands, his brows furrowed in deep thought.

Footsteps from outside the door approached, and soon Sima Huiniang joined him.

”Do we really need to deactivate the array ahead of schedule?”

Luo Chen put down the letter, sighing, ”The Jueqing Fairy is nowhere to be found. Instead of delaying further, it’s better to conserve Min Longyu’s strength as a last resort.”

”But in a head-on fight, the enemy still has eight Great Cultivators and sixteen Foundation Establishment True Cultivators. Just their high-end combat power is enough to overwhelm the Luo Tian Creed.”

Sima Huiniang compared the forces of both sides, feeling the disparity was overwhelming.

In a soft voice, she said, ”Though Kang Dongyue has used some tricks outside to deceive some Rogue Cultivators away, we are essentially still surrounded by a pack of wolves.”

She was speaking the truth.

On one side was the large force of the Anti-Luo Alliance . On the other side were the Rogue Cultivators seeking to take advantage while the iron was hot.

With the two combined, the Luo Tian Creed would be in a dire state if there was even a hint of collapse—an all too familiar situation of the walls crumbling as everyone pushes.

This was one of the reasons why the Luo Tian Creed had insisted on not venturing out.

Luo Chen spoke softly, ”My worries are not only these.”

Sima Huiniang said softly, ”Is it that Middle Stage Golden Core of the Flame Alliance, Qin Tairan?”

Luo Chen nodded slightly.

Qin Tairan, the Law Enforcement Elder of the Flame Alliance, was known for his severe and brutal nature.

If that were all, it would have been bearable; but the man also possessed the powerful cultivation level of the Fourth layer of Golden Core, far surpassing that of Di Wanyun from before.

For the Luo Tian Creed to break through this obstacle, Luo Chen would need to take action personally.

But if Luo Chen made a move, Elder Qin would likely not relent on him.

For now, it was just that the enemy was too proud to lose face, and uncertain whether he was truly still in Tianlan or not.

”Tao Wen said she can get an Elder from her sect to protect me once. But that Elder Long is only at the Golden Core Second Layer, not a match for Qin Tairan.”

”The stance of the Elder from Ailao Mountain observing from the side is a bit ambiguous, too.”

”Without the Jueqing Fairy showing up, I’m in a precarious situation, even with a body as powerful as the Primordial Third Order. In front of a Middle Stage Golden Core Cultivator...”

In his heart, Luo Chen weighed his options.

Lastly, seeing the worried look on Sima Huiniang’s face.

”Go rest. You can just command from the back in tomorrow’s battle.”

Sima Huiniang opened her mouth to say something but felt powerless to change anything.

It was only at this moment that she realized, sometimes just managing and growing a power is not enough.

Only when one’s own strength is sufficient, can situations be turned around!

Before, Luo Chen had always shielded her from the storm.

But this time, even with Luo Chen’s earnest efforts, the situation seemed tremendously difficult.
