228: Chapter 228 The stage is set

"The Luotian Sect's Miluo Refining Absolute Formation... This Formation locks all life within it, refining their flesh and Divine Souls together into Medicinal Pills."

Xu Chuan walked over with a grim expression and said.

The moment this Formation appeared, their opponents had also retreated together.

"Exactly."

Song Shu nodded.

Although they hadn't interacted with demonic cultivators for five hundred years, the people of these Sects always felt that those defeated demonic cultivators would surely make a comeback; they were unwilling to accept defeat.

Therefore, they had always been on guard against demonic cultivators and had consistently taught their Disciples knowledge related to demonic Sects.

However, they hadn't expected that after only five hundred years, they would be unable to restrain themselves.

The Blood Refining Sect's Crimson Smelting Yuan Tu Array was still somewhat different from the current Miluo Refining Absolute Formation.

The Crimson Smelting Yuan Tu Array only extracted the flesh and blood of the living beings within the Formation.

But the Miluo Refining Absolute Formation could refine everything of the living beings within the Formation into Medicinal Pills.

Furthermore, the grade of the Miluo Refining Absolute Formation was higher than that of the Crimson Smelting Yuan Tu Array.

The Crimson Smelting Yuan Tu Array was a Rank 5 Formation, while the Miluo Refining Absolute Formation was a Rank 6 Formation, a difference of one rank.

"The Luotian Sect is involved as well."

Sun Yiwen's expression became increasingly grim.

The Luotian Sect was also a demonic power with significant strength. They believed in something called 'Luotian,' which they considered to be their own version of the Heavenly Dao.

They believed that everything in the world must return to Luotian, and only by returning to Luotian could they attain eternal life.

The Blood Fiend Sect, the Yougu Sect, and the Luotian Sect.

When this Formation appeared and he learned of the Miluo Refining Absolute Formation's effects from the Sect members...

They knew that these Demonic Path practitioners wanted to completely transform and destroy Yanyun Mountain, refining all the living beings within it.

"What should we do?"

One person gradually began to panic; he didn't want to die.

"We're going to the city. The True Monarch might have a way."

Sun Shuo said with a pale face.

His opponent just now had also been remarkably strong, and he had suffered some losses at his hands.

But after the Formation was activated, that person had also fled.

"Exactly, our Old Ancestor is still here, so there shouldn't be any problems,"

The Wu Family Elder said in a deep voice.

The True Monarchs of the Other Shore from their four families were currently their greatest source of confidence.

Xu Chuan wanted to say that he had notified the Sect, but when he thought about how the Sect hadn't responded for so long, he hesitated and ultimately didn't say anything.

What was going on?

Once it involved the Demonic Path, the Sect should have responded quickly.

Why was there no response this time after so long?

This left Xu Chuan somewhat puzzled.

"Let's go to the city first,"

Sun Yiwen said.

Within this Formation, they certainly wouldn't be able to leave even if they wanted to.

And as the Formation operated, their flesh and Divine Souls would be refined one by one.

They couldn't just sit here and wait for death.

Right now, it was best for them to find the True Monarch and act together. With the True Monarch's help, they might be able to break this Formation.

Without any hesitation.

They rushed toward the city.

They also saw the corpses on the ground; the blood Qi on them was being extracted at a speed visible to the naked eye, surging toward a certain location in the city.

Their Divine Souls felt as if they were being pulled by some kind of force, trying to leave their bodies.

The time left for them was running out.

Soon, the group returned to the city.

As soon as they stepped into the city, they saw corpses everywhere. People were constantly rushing out of Yanyun Mountain, trying to escape, and the entire Yanyun Mountain had fallen into chaos.

"Patriarch Sun, save us!"

Upon seeing Sun Yiwen appear, some people went directly to him and pleaded.

"Rest assured, everyone. We will never allow the people of the Demonic Path to continue such behavior."

Sun Yiwen said in a deep voice.

Although he currently had no confidence in the matter, it was still necessary to stabilize people's hearts and integrate the existing forces.

"Patriarch Sun, I will return to my Fang Family first."

The Fang Family Elder stood up at this moment and said to him.

Since they had returned to the city, he didn't plan on continuing to act together.

The people from the other two families felt the same.

"Junior Brother, if it really doesn't work out, you two can leave first."

Xu Chuan said in a deep voice.

It was the same sentiment as before.

Lin Ming and Yu Yaoqin absolutely could not be allowed to come to harm.

"Don't worry, Senior Brother, nothing will happen."

Lin Ming smiled slightly and said.

As long as he wanted to, breaking this Formation wasn't a difficult task.

After all, he was a Saint-rank Formation Master; wanting to break this Rank 6 Formation was an effortless matter.

In his eyes, this Miluo Refining Absolute Formation was full of flaws.

Moreover, with his current strength, he could even break it by force.

However, the stage had already been set, and the main characters had not all appeared yet; how could he destroy the stage so soon?

Immediately after, Lin Ming's gaze turned toward the mountain, toward the location of the flame star flowing moon sandalwood.

Under the persuasion of the Sun Family Patriarch, the people of the three families finally decided to act together, first heading to the Sun Family, which was closest to them, and then rescuing the other families.

As for Lin Ming and the others, they also decided to act with Sun Yiwen for the time being.

After all, they didn't know the whereabouts of the enemy, and it was best not to act rashly when they knew nothing about the enemy's location.

Along the way, surrounding survivors also joined the team.

They didn't turn anyone away.

However, some people only followed for a while before collapsing, their blood Qi and Divine Souls being pulled away by the Miluo Soul Refining Formation.

Before long, everyone arrived at the Sun Family.

The Sun Family was relatively fine, as most of their strength was guarding the home.

When the chaos started, the Sun Family reacted quickly and guarded their home. After losing some manpower, they successfully held their ground.

"Where is the True Monarch?"

Sun Yiwen asked.

"There is a True Monarch of the Other Shore among the enemies. The True Monarch went to deal with them."

The person quickly replied.

Everyone was not surprised by this; it matched their expectations.

Otherwise, this Formation would not have covered Yanyun Mountain.

What they wanted to know was how many True Monarchs of the Other Shore the opponent had deployed. Currently, the True Monarchs of all four of their families were tied up.

"How is the situation with the other three families?"

Sun Yiduo said in a deep voice.

"I don't know."

Since they were attacked, they had lost contact with the other three families and didn't know their status.

"Patriarch Sun, we should still find a way to break this Formation first."

Xu Chuan said at this time.

The urgent priority was to find a way to break the Formation; otherwise, everyone present would eventually be refined into pills.

The eye of the Miluo Soul Refining Formation was where the blood Qi converged.

A Miluo Flower.

A Miluo Flower refined by the Tianluo Sect. By destroying it, the Formation could be broken.
