555: Chapter 65 Chaos Within the City

Seeing that Wei Qiong refused to give any of the answers he wanted, Azure Dragon's face darkened.

At the same time, the Poison God below spoke up: "Old man Wei, stop playing dumb. A few years ago, I sent Qin Wuyan to Yudu City to investigate the matter of the Wanfu Ancient Cave, but he went missing after entering the City Lord's Manor. As the City Lord, how could you not know his whereabouts?"

"As for the entrance to the Wanfu Ancient Cave..."

"If you don't speak up, the commoners in this city are going to suffer greatly."

After saying that, he activated the green Pill Furnace in his hand.

Not far away, Kuong A Xiang saw the appearance of that Pill Furnace and instantly cried out in shock: "The Yanxia Golden Light Furnace?!"

These words caused Zeng Shushu, Lin Jingyu, and the others to be momentarily stunned.

Immediately after, Zeng Shushu said in surprise: "The Yanxia Golden Light Furnace? Isn't that a supreme treasure used for Alchemy by the Tianyin Pavilion? How did it end up in the hands of the Wandu Sect?"

Kuong A Xiang gritted his teeth and said: "A few years ago, a thief infiltrated the Tianyin Pavilion and stole the Yanxia Golden Light Furnace. My Master and the others have been investigating, but to no avail. I didn't expect it was done by the Wandu Sect, and they've even turned this Alchemy furnace into an evil object for causing harm."

Zeng Shushu and the others finally understood.

Afterward, they couldn't afford to dwell on the matter.

Because after the Poison God activated the Yanxia Golden Light Furnace, the controlled commoners had already begun to surge upstairs toward them.

Looking at the red glow in the eyes of the surrounding commoners, Tian Linger thought for a moment and drew a Kunxian Symbol. The chains generated by the Talisman's power bound both sides of the stairs, stretching across the middle to form a defensive line. She then cast the Purifying Heart Mantra on the person rushing at the very front.

As the spiritual light of the Purifying Heart entered the body and took effect, the red glow in that person's eyes quickly faded.

Seeing this, both Tian Linger and Lu Xueqi beside her were delighted.

But in an instant, that person clutched his head and began to wail in pain.

Then, the red glow that had just faded covered his eyes once again.

Lu Xueqi was startled and hurriedly asked: "Junior Sister Tian, why is this happening?"

Tian Linger frowned and said: "The Purifying Heart Mantra has the effect of purifying various types of evil Qi and wicked thoughts, such as resentment, baleful energy, ferocity, and bloodlust; it can also calm the heart and clear the mind."

"For it to take effect and then fail like this, there are two possibilities: first, the evil power on him is too heavy, and my cultivation is insufficient to completely purify it with the Purifying Heart Mantra. Second, the Spell is the wrong remedy; he hasn't become like this because of an evil possession, but because of poisoning."

"Combining the current situation, it is most likely the latter."

"As for detoxifying, I have no way."

"Then what should we do?" Lu Xueqi felt a headache coming on.

If it were some wicked demon, she would have drawn her sword and struck them down, but she couldn't bring herself to use such brutal force against these innocent commoners.

Tian Linger also understood this. After a moment's thought, she said helplessly: "We can only find a way to trap them."

"But there are too many people; I can't handle them all by myself."

"Senior Sister, do you know any corresponding methods?"

Lu Xueqi thought for a moment and replied: "Within the Divine Sword Control Thunder Technique, there is a sealing method that can turn the power of thunder and lightning into an invisible barrier to block off exits. If someone tries to force a Breakthrough, they will be attacked by the power of lightning."

"It's not very appropriate for sealing these unconscious, innocent commoners."

Hearing this, Tian Linger took out a jade seal the size of a child's palm, engraved with a Talisman, from her storage ring and handed it to Lu Xueqi: "Then we can only use this."

"This is?" Lu Xueqi reached out to take the jade seal, her face showing doubt.

Tian Linger explained: "It's called the 'Body-Fixing Talisman Magic Seal,' a Magic Treasure my Junior Brother refined in the past. After you infuse it with your magic power to activate it, you can consume magic power to use it to fire a Body-Fixing Talisman. Once it hits the target, it can freeze them in place."

"The specific effect depends on the situation."

"With your cultivation, Senior Sister, freezing these ordinary people for an hour shouldn't be a problem."

Lu Xueqi was stunned for a moment.

Is it really that miraculous?

Afterward, she followed the instructions to activate the Body-Fixing Talisman Magic Seal and fired a Body-Fixing Talisman at an ordinary person climbing upstairs.

After that person was hit, he was instantly frozen; although he could still breathe, he was unable to Move.

Lu Xueqi's face immediately showed a look of joy.

This Magic Treasure was indeed suitable for dealing with the current situation.

Tian Linger also breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Just then, the sound of fighting came from outside.

The two of them looked toward the sound and saw that the people from the Wandu Sect had made their Move again.

The Blood-Sucking Old Demon and the Hundred Poisons Child had targeted Wei Qiong.

Now that his identity had been exposed, Azure Dragon did not help again, choosing instead to stand by and watch.

Wei Qiong was fighting one against two and was falling into a disadvantage.

Zeng Shushu, Lin Jingyu, Kuong A Xiang, and Li Xun wanted to help, but they were blocked by the Wandu Sect Disciples and those commoners.

Lu Xueqi and Tian Linger joined the battle without a second word.

Seeing that Wei Qiong's situation was becoming more perilous, Lu Xueqi didn't have time to perform the Divine Sword Control Thunder Technique. She directly leaped forward to close the distance, activated the Body-Fixing Talisman Magic Seal, and fired a Body-Fixing Talisman at the Blood-Sucking Old Demon, who was about to take advantage of the situation to strike Wei Qiong.

Tian Linger, on the other hand, drew a Kunxian Symbol and threw it at the Hundred Poisons Child.

The Blood-Sucking Old Demon and the Hundred Poisons Child didn't expect Lu Xueqi and Tian Linger to dare to interfere in their high-level match, and both were caught off guard and hit.

The Blood-Sucking Old Demon's movements faltered, and his killing Move was interrupted.

The Hundred Poisons Child's hands and feet were bound by the chains transformed from the Kunxian Symbol.

Seeing this, Wei Qiong, who was facing the two, had a sharp light flash in his eyes. He hurriedly seized the opportunity, intending to severely wound them.

But just as he made a Move, a streak of bloody light struck toward him.

It was the Poison God, seeing the situation was not right, providing support.

As the bloody light approached, alarm bells rang in Wei Qiong's heart, and he could only stop his attack and pull back to dodge.

The next second, the Blood-Sucking Old Demon and the Hundred Poisons Child both channeled their magic power and erupted, breaking free from the restrictions of the Body-Fixing Talisman and the Kunxian Symbol.

Then, the two of them looked at Lu Xueqi and Tian Linger, their eyes filled with murderous intent.

If the Poison God hadn't acted just now, they would surely have been injured by Wei Qiong, and quite possibly severely.

After a brief moment, the Blood-Sucking Old Demon said to the Hundred Poisons Child: "You hold off old man Wei; I'll go deal with those two little girls who don't know the meaning of death."

The Hundred Poisons Child nodded and attacked Wei Qiong.

Wei Qiong saw through their objective and felt a chill in his heart. He wanted to stop the Blood-Sucking Old Demon but was entangled by the Hundred Poisons Child.

Seeing the Blood-Sucking Old Demon attacking, Lu Xueqi knew that ordinary Spells and Moves would be difficult to deal with such a powerful enemy, so she directly began to perform the Divine Sword Control Thunder Technique.

Tian Linger, meanwhile, quickly drew a Five Thunder Talisman.

As soon as the Blood-Sucking Old Demon approached, the Five Thunder Talisman struck out.

Seeing the power of lightning, the Blood-Sucking Old Demon was startled and subconsciously dodged.

When the blue-white electric light missed, he realized its power was not even a fraction of what he had expected, and he was instantly both relieved and enraged.

He was relieved that the thunder Talisman's power was insufficient to harm him.

He was enraged because his performance just now had been a bit embarrassing.

Then, he once again attacked Tian Linger and Lu Xueqi.

As he got close, Tian Linger activated another drawn Talisman.

The Blood-Sucking Old Demon thought it was another Five Thunder Talisman and did not dodge.

Unexpectedly, when the Talisman was activated this time, it transformed into five human-shaped phantom shadows that flew behind him, grabbing the Blood-Sucking Old Demon's hands and feet and strangling his neck.

This change came so suddenly that the Blood-Sucking Old Demon was dazed for a moment. After he reacted, he hurriedly channeled his magic power to break free from the restraint.

At that very moment, Lu Xueqi finished drawing down the lightning and struck with her sword...
