Chapter 1237 1237: Go Summon the Elders!
At this moment.Everyone stood in stunned silence, unable to utter a single word.
The air seemed to freeze.
A gentle breeze blew.
The loose strands of hair on Qin Feng's forehead swayed lightly.
He raised his head.
The sky, clouded by Soul Defying Technique, at this moment cleared up, revealing a bright and sunny view once more.
The sun blazed in the sky.
A slight curve appeared at the corner of Qin Feng's mouth as he squinted at the dazzling sun and said, "It's noon."
Noon.
Which means half the battle is over!
Just endure the afternoon more, and the task will be completed.
He glanced around, looking at the shocked faces in the square, his heart satisfied.
The reason for using all his strength against Soul Ao.
Was to create a deterrent.
To deter them from rashly approaching, to buy more time, while secretly hastening his recovery.
Now, indeed, those people dared not come forward!
Qin Feng took out a Blood Bodhi, swallowing it, while secretly refining and absorbing it, standing tall and scanning the crowd to exert pressure on them.
Of course.
At this moment.
Xiao Wu, who had been hunted, finally returned to the square, landing beside Qin Feng, worryingly said, "Qin Feng, are you alright?"
Those consecutive explosions earlier had made her worry.
"I'm fine."
Qin Feng shook his head.
But Xiao Wu could see that Qin Feng was already at his limit.
His voice trembled as he spoke, a tremble caused by severe breath disorder, a forced tremble.
Xiao Wu raised her eyebrows and said, "Let's retreat first!"
No matter the circumstances.
Survival is crucial.
She didn't want Qin Feng to endanger himself here.
But Qin Feng shook his head, pointed to the sun above, and said, "It's noon, just hold on a little longer..."
"..."
Xiao Wu knew that once he decided something, no one could change his mind, so she gritted her teeth and nodded, "Let me handle the next part."
"No."
Qin Feng shook his head and said, "That Young Master Black Soul is not foolish. If you just attract their attention by flying back and forth on Ten Thousand Soul Mountain, they will notice something is up, and Baili Qiurong might be discovered."
Xiao Wu replied, "Don't worry, I won't fly around chaotically, just stay here to draw their fire."
The Empress is kidnapped here.
Only here can it make Holy Soul Hall believe they're coming to rescue someone.
"Alright, stop fooling around, let me handle it!"
Qin Feng said helplessly.
Xiao Wu's Qinggong and movement technique are unparalleled.
But her cultivation is too low.
And Holy Soul Hall has a large number of Ninth Grade Grandmasters, a direct confrontation would not be an even match.
"Qin Feng, you're underestimating me."
Xiao Wu pouted then said, "It seems the time we've spent together is still too short, you don't understand me at all."
"Uh..."
Qin Feng looked puzzled, what did she mean by that?
"In any case, I can't withstand their full attack, but I'm not as useless as you think, I can buy you some time, a bit of time!"
While speaking.
Xiao Wu took out a long whip, facing the crowd.
"..."
Qin Feng found it hard to argue with her, letting her do as she pleased.
He thought if it really didn't work, he would just take her and leave.
At this moment.
The crowd around the square, after their amazement, fell into chaos.
They were convinced; the Hall Master Soul Ao was defeated.
What should they do now?
Seek revenge for the Hall Master?
Yet, the power Qin Feng had just displayed was too strong, going forward would be suicide...
For a moment.
Everyone was conflicted one by one.
"Go call the Elders and Young Master Black Soul!" Someone suggested in the crowd.
"Yes, yes, we have elders here, I'll go now..."
"..."
Holy Soul Hall has a total of nine elders.
These nine elders are survivors from that Hidden World battle a hundred years ago, after enduring a century, they all held high cultivation.
Though not Quasi-Saint.
Yet five of them are Spirit King Realm!
The reason they didn't come despite such earth-shattering explosions was because they had more important matters.
That was the Sacrificial Array!
The Sacrificial Array uses the entire Ten Thousand Soul Mountain's earth vein power, with a total of nine Array Eyes, each guarded by one of them with their followers, constantly infusing and controlling the power flow.
Apart from the nine Array Eyes, there are countless Small Array Eyes, numbering in the thousands.
Just like the group Qin Feng eliminated last night, it was one of the thousands of Small Array Eyes, managed by a team of a dozen or so people.
Overall.
The Sacrificial Array is like a massive machine.
Those various Array Eyes are like heating the boilers continuously to get the machine started early.
Once stopped, it would delay time.
Right now.
Most people were around the hall's square, which left the elders guarding the various Array Eyes depressed.
In a cave at the back of a mountain.
The gray-haired Great Elder sat cross-legged in a small formation, continuously infusing power into the formation, while grumbling, "What's happening? What are they all busy with? Didn't I say that all Holy Soul Hall members should focus on the Sacrificial Array during this period?"
He could feel that many Small Array Eyes had stopped moving.
"Great Elder, I just checked it out, they say there's an external enemy invasion." said one of his subordinates.
"External enemy? Didn't Kunlun Sect get defeated? Who else would invade? Besides, isn't Hall Master Soul Ao, a Quasi-Saint level, supposed to guard this array instead of participating?"
The Great Elder expressed his dissatisfaction.
"Well..."
His subordinate didn't know how to respond.
At this moment, an elder hurriedly arrived here and reported, "Great Elder, something has gone wrong..."
He briefly explained the situation outside.
Including Soul Ao being defeated.
"What??"
Great Elder's brow shot up, saying, "Someone actually defeated Soul Ao? Who is the other party? Is it a Saint?"
"No, it's a... Third Grade Grandmaster..."
The elder responded with a wry smile.
Saying this, he found it hard to believe himself.
He reported in detail the power Qin Feng showcased to the Great Elder.
"I see, he's utilizing his potential... But still, it's incredible. I'll go take a look!" said the Great Elder.
He immediately gathered his strength, saying, "He defeated Soul Ao by tapping into his potential, that kid is likely already at his limit. Take me there, no need to disturb other elders, it's a crucial time for the Sacrificial Array, no one can drop the ball!"
"Yes, yes..." the elder replied hurriedly.
Soon.
The Great Elder quickly came to the main square.
Seeing nearly ten thousand people gathered around the square, while only Qin Feng and Xiao Wu stood there, he became furious, saying, "A bunch of fools!! So many people, and you fear those two?!"
"G-G-Great Elder, that guy… defeated the Hall Master..."
One person said timidly.
The Great Elder gave him an angry glare, then looked up at Qin Feng in the square.
A gentle breeze blew.
Qin Feng's tall figure stood firm in the wind, locking eyes...
