61: Chapter 61 An army presses in, luring the enemy into a trap.
The night was as thick and unyielding as ink.
Above the Mysterious Maiden Sect, dark clouds gathered, obscuring even a single star, creating a suffocating atmosphere.
The Sect, usually filled with Immortal Qi, serene and peaceful, was now eerily silent, as if even the wind had ceased to flow.
Outside the mountain gate, a vast, dark army, like a tide, surged from all directions, completely surrounding the Mysterious Maiden Sect.
Leading them were three massive black flying boats.
On the decks of the flying boats stood three figures, exuding powerful auras.
In the center was Young Master Mo Fan of the Medicine King Valley.
Clad in battle armor and wielding a long sword, he was now full of vigor, completely shedding his previous dejected air.
To his left was a burly man with a ferocious face, holding a ghost-head broadsword. He was Zhang Kuang, the Sect Leader of the Divine Blade Sect.
To his right was a bald monk, as robust as an iron tower, with bulging muscles all over his body. He was Sect Master Wang Ba of the Vajra Sect.
Behind them were the elite Disciples of the three great Sects, all radiating Killing Intent, their gazes greedily fixed on the majestic mountain gate of the Mysterious Maiden Sect.
"Hahaha! Young Master Mo, is your information truly reliable?"
Zhang Kuang, the Sect Leader of the Divine Blade Sect, asked in a booming voice, shouldering his ghost-head broadsword.
"Has that woman, Phoenix Unrivaled, really left?"
"Sect Leader Zhang, rest assured."
Mo Fan stood with his hands behind his back, a knowing smile playing on his lips.
"I have confirmed it repeatedly. Phoenix Unrivaled's Dragon Carriage has already left for thousands of miles, there is absolutely no falsehood."
"That's good! That's good!" Sect Master Wang Ba of the Vajra Sect stroked his bald head and chuckled.
"Without that woman interfering, a Mysterious Maiden Sect, left with only women, won't it be ours for the taking?"
"Just thinking about those delicate female Disciples of the Mysterious Maiden Sect, this old monk's heart can't help but stir with excitement!"
"Hahaha!"
All three burst into knowing lewd laughter.
In their eyes, tonight's operation was not an attack at all, but a feast of spoils.
The Spiritual Veins, Cultivation Techniques, Medicinal Pills of the Mysterious Maiden Sect, and those female Disciples who usually looked down on everyone, would all become their war trophies!
"Two Sect Leaders, calm down." Mo Fan raised a hand to stop their laughter, a glint of lewdness flashing in his eyes.
"Everything else can be divided. But Leng Hanshuang, she must be mine!"
"That's natural! That's natural!" Zhang Kuang and Wang Ba quickly nodded and bowed.
They both knew that this success was entirely due to Mo Fan's initiative.
Leng Hanshuang, the greatest prize, naturally belonged to him.
"Alright, the time has come!"
Mo Fan glanced at the sky, his eyes blazing with Killing Intent.
"My command! All troops attack! Break open this Mysterious Maiden Sect's Mountain-Protecting Formation!"
"Roar!"
As he gave the order, outside the mountain gate, tens of thousands of soldiers roared in unison, their voices shaking the wilderness.
Countless beams of Spell and Magic Treasure light, like a torrential downpour, poured onto the semi-transparent Mountain-Protecting Formation of the Mysterious Maiden Sect.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Violent explosions resounded incessantly.
The entire mountain range of the Mysterious Maiden Sect began to tremble violently.
Under the storm-like attacks, the light curtain of the Mountain-Protecting Formation rippled, its glow flickering, as if it could shatter at any moment.
Mysterious Maiden Sect, on the main peak of the mountain gate.
Leng Hanshuang, dressed in white, stood on the city wall, gazing at the vast, dark army outside the mountain, her beautiful face a picture of "solemnity" and "paleness."
Beside her, Lin Rou and Liu Yuqin also wore expressions of "anxiety" and "worry."
"Sect Master! The Mountain-Protecting Formation can't hold much longer!" an Elder reported in a panic.
"What are you panicking for!" Leng Hanshuang "sternly" rebuked, "My command! All Disciples, defend the Formation's core! Swear to live and die with the Sect!"
"Yes, Sect Master!"
The Elder took the order and left.
Leng Hanshuang's words, transmitted through the Sound Transmission Array, clearly reached the ears of Mo Fan and the others outside the mountain gate.
"Hahaha! You're about to die, yet still so stubborn!" Mo Fan laughed triumphantly.
"Give the order! Increase the attack intensity! Break it in one fell swoop!"
Just then, a Transmission Talisman in Mo Fan's arms suddenly lit up.
It was Chu Ying.
"Young Master Mo! I've reached the northwest corner of the Sect's grand Formation! The defense here is the weakest! As long as I destroy the Formation Base here, the grand Formation will surely break!"
"Good! Well done!" Mo Fan was overjoyed, "Chu Ying, don't worry! Once the Mysterious Maiden Sect is conquered, you will have the greatest merit! I guarantee that you will personally slay your enemy!"
"Thank you, Young Lord!"
Chu Ying's voice was filled with excitement and venom.
After hanging up the transmission, Mo Fan immediately said to Zhang Kuang and Wang Ba beside him.
"Two Sect Leaders, our inside man is in position! Get everyone ready, once a breach appears in the grand Formation, immediately charge in with me!"
"Good!"
The two responded in unison.
At the same time, in the northwest corner of the Mysterious Maiden Sect's grand Formation.
Chu Ying, dressed in a servant's uniform, stealthily hid behind a large boulder.
Looking at the Inner Sect Disciples nearby who were struggling to maintain the Formation's core, a trace of twisted pleasure flashed in her eyes.
Now!
She suddenly rushed out, a black dagger appearing in her hand at some point.
The dagger emitted an eerie black Qi, clearly a malicious demonic artifact.
"Pfft!"
Taking advantage of the moment when the Disciples were fully focused on maintaining the Formation and could not spare attention, she fiercely plunged the dagger into the core Formation Base.
Crack!
A crisp cracking sound rang out.
The incredibly sturdy Formation Base instantly became covered in cracks.
Mo Fan and the others, who were frantically attacking the Mountain-Protecting Formation, heard only a loud "rumble."
The massive light curtain in front suddenly exploded, forming a huge gap in the northwest corner!
"It's broken! The grand Formation is broken!"
"Hahaha! Charge!"
Mo Fan was ecstatic at the sight, transforming into a streak of light and being the first to rush into the breach.
Zhang Kuang and Wang Ba followed closely, and the tens of thousands of soldiers behind them also poured in like a flood from an open dam.
Each of them wore greedy and excited smiles, as if they had already seen the dawn of victory.
However, when they rushed into the Mysterious Maiden Sect's territory, they all froze.
The imagined scene of Mysterious Maiden Sect Disciples panicking and fleeing in all directions did not occur.
The entire Sect was eerily quiet.
Not even a ghost could be seen on the empty plaza.
An ominous premonition began to quietly spread through everyone's hearts.
"What's going on? Where are the people?"
Zhang Kuang, carrying his broadsword, vigilantly looked around, his brows tightly furrowed.
"Something's wrong... it's too quiet here."
Wang Ba also put away his lewd smile, his expression becoming solemn.
Mo Fan's heart also sank.
He wasn't a fool; this strange scene instantly made him realize that things might not be as simple as he thought.
Just then, behind him, the breach in the grand Formation that had just been broken suddenly flashed with light.
"Buzz—"
The huge breach actually healed rapidly at a visible speed!
In the blink of an eye, it was as good as new!
"No! It's a trap! We've fallen for it!"
Mo Fan's face instantly turned pale!
