Book 3: Chapter 11.2: Bad News
The disciples of Sky-Forging Castle obeyed his command and gathered together. Under the shelter of the fire lotus, they rose all the way.
But at this moment, the smoke above the ancient city dissipated, the darkness inside surged, and several black sword beams burst out.
These sword beams swiftly traversed and crossed, forming multiple black straight lines on the sky, which were woven into a dense pattern, trapping the fire lotus inside.
“This is… a sword formation?”
The disciples of Sky-Forging Castle responded too late. More than a dozen dark monsters with more complex runes on their bodies, riding various black flying swords, rose into the sky and surrounded them.
From the number, this should be the group of missing Foundation Establishment cultivators.
From the energy they released, they all had the ability of the Nascent Soul stage. These monsters roared while driving the flying sword to attack Fire Lotus.
The disciples of Sky-Forging Castle hurried to fight back, but one side was full of momentum, and the other was exhausted. Soon, all the disciples of Sky-Forging Castle fell into decline. When those black sword beams pierced into the fire lotus and be burned, they immediately exploded, tearing the fire around and making the disciples of Sky-Forging Castle exposed.
The buzzing bell sound immediately took advantage of this to enter, and some disciples who could not bear the mental attack and froze in place.
“Kill……”
They lowered their heads and murmured in a quicker and faster rhythm:
“Kill the Green Emperor and recreate the Sacred Dynasty!”
“Wake up!”
Elder Liu shouted loudly, reaching for the disciples, but the dark monsters around him rushed up. He was forced to retreat, and he could only watch the disciples were brainwashed by the bell sound and fell into the boundless darkness of the ancient city.
The bell’s rhythm became faster, and the fire lotus was completely torn. Elder Liu felt bitter in his heart. Not to say that to protect these disciples, even he himself was about to be forced into a desperate situation.
In this critical moment, there was suddenly a huge snow-white beam flew across the distance of a hundred miles, breaking the sword formation that surrounded the disciples of Sky-Forging Castle.
“Elder Liu!”
A handsome middle-aged man dressed in a snow-white gown and carrying a long blade appeared.
“Are you all right?”
“Senior brother Yue!”
Seeing this person, Elder Liu’s eyes lit up. The person who came was the representative of the military force of Sky-Forging Castle, the older brother of the sect leader, Yue Qianren.
“Why are you here? Did the sect leader let you come?”
“Ah, I was looking for materials for Qianlian. When I heard about this on the way back, I came to see it.”
Yue Qianren flew towards them.
“Come on, I will take you out!”
“Several disciples were captured by the ancient city.”
Elder Liu said bitterly.
“There is nothing we can do for them right now, let’s go back first!”
Yue Qianren turned his head, then in the next moment, his expression changed.
Two monsters with more complicated runes surfaced from the darkness. Their heads had horns, their hands were controlling the magic weapon, and when they stopped in front of everyone, exuding a terrible atmosphere comparable to the Deity Transformation stage. Behind them, thousands of dark monsters who were equal to Golden Core cultivators appeared in the sky, forming a dark cloud, blocking the escape path of the disciples of Sky-Forging Castle.
“It seems that the owner of this city is not willing to let us leave.”
Yue Qianren held the back handle with his backhand and said in a deep voice:
“Elder Liu, I will open the way for you. In any case, you must pass the information about this ancient city to Qianlian!”

On the Seven Stars Peak of Qingming Mountain, Bai Qiuran was researching the copied photo stone. Although the original photo stone and blank spirit stone have been delivered to the Mystery Academy, he also left a copy, used to see if there was any opportunity to inspire him to break through the foundation.
While he was staring at the formation model of all angles on the photo stone, the voice of his disciple suddenly came from his ears.
“Master, not good!”
Tang Ruowei was riding the Kunling sword, flew from the main peak, and hurriedly landed, shouting to him.
“What’s the fuss about?”
Bai Qiuran glanced at her lazily and said:
“Your chest has grown?”
“I think it’s a bit bigger…no, this is not the time to talk about that!”
Tang Ruowei shook his head and stuffed a letter into Bai Qiuran’s hand.
“Look for yourself, this is what the elders let me bring to you.”
Bai Qiuran took it, opened the envelope, and checked the contents.
On the stationery, such a sentence was written in black and white:
“The mysterious ancient city appeared in Qing Province, all the disciples of Sky-Forging Castle who went to investigate mysteriously disappeared, including [Thousand Forging Sky Blade] Yue Qianren who went to the rescue. Only Elder Liu was back, but he’s seriously wounded and fell into a coma.”
