Chapter 732: Du Ye?
Elder Wu Hen saw this and immediately flipped to dodge, angrily shouting at the person, "What's the matter with you!!"
Just as he finished speaking.
He noticed the person's look and thought to himself, "Are they being controlled?"
Then he looked around.
Elder Wu Hen was stunned.
The dozen or so nearest Defense Towers around him were now all targeting him!
Then he looked at the people under the Defense Towers.
All of them had dull eyes, their minds controlled by someone!
"This is bad!"
Elder Wu Hen's heart skipped a beat.
And then.
Fireballs!
Lightning!
From all directions, they all bombarded him!!
Boom!!
Elder Wu Hen immediately formed Sealing with both hands, then with his spear swept around horizontally, shouting loudly, "The will of the Eight Desolates!!"
A huge wave of Qi spread in all directions.
Those fireballs and lightning, upon contacting the Qi wave, all exploded!
"As expected of a Seventh Grade Grandmaster..."
Atop the main tower, Young Master Bai He witnessed this scene, utterly shocked.
Ordinary people being attacked by the Array like this would have probably turned to dust long ago, yet Elder Wu Hen managed to defend against it!
However.
The formidable residual impact of the explosion left Elder Wu Hen injured as well, gasping for breath heavily.
He immediately used his spear again, and with a virtual thrust, a beam of light pierced through the chests of the nearby people controlling the Defense Towers, one by one!
Those Defense Towers then stopped being under their control, but started bombarding aimlessly once more, only avoiding bombing those who were carrying Spirit Talismans on Qin Feng's side.
At this moment, Poisonous Insect King White Ghost again attempted to control other people.
With his current strength, he could make quite a few people briefly lose their minds, but to manipulate them to control the Defense Towers required strong spiritual power, and he could only control about a dozen Grandmasters at the same time.
At this moment.
Yu Xing'er and others, now sensing the sudden abnormality in the Array, during their fight with Elder Wu Hen, occasionally deliberately lured him towards the Defense Towers guarded by people from the Array Formation Hall.
As expected.
As soon as he entered the range of those Defense Towers, he would be bombarded by the guards controlling the towers, gradually being put at a disadvantage.
The situation was the same elsewhere.
With the help of the Array, Qin Feng's side once again gained the upper hand and fought fiercely.
The sound of explosions.
The sound of lightning.
The sound of screams.
All these sounds were heard!
The entire Supreme Sect soon became a field of corpses, a river of blood!
"Tan Xiao Monk's Buddhist Finger!!"
The Tan Xiao Monk pointed at the back of a Sixth Grade Grandmaster who had just been bombarded by lightning, and then a burst of Buddhist light exploded from his back!
"Ah—!"
The Sixth Grade Grandmaster screamed miserably, and died on the spot!
Elsewhere, another Sixth Grade Grandmaster who was also rampaging through the crowd was hit by two fireballs in succession, with flames burning on his body.
Before he could extinguish it with his inner strength, Old Drunkard said, "Let me add fuel to your fire!"
He took out the red gourd from his waist, took a swig of wine, then gathered his energy to forcefully spray towards the Sixth Grade Grandmaster.
Whoosh—!!
The fierce fire on the body of that Sixth Grade Grandmaster burned even more wildly like in a gust of wind!
It took less than a minute for the boundary to be burnt to bone!
The same was true elsewhere.
With the aid of the array, the members of Supreme Sect kept falling to the ground...
At the top of the main tower.
Young Master Bai He looked at the battlefield, finally relaxed, and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, saying, "Thank goodness, when the Supreme Sect was setting up the Defense Towers, they requested to increase the firepower. Now it's the perfect time to use it."
The Poisonous Insect King White Ghost was also exhausted, wearily rubbing his temples, with a lot of cold sweat oozing from his body.
Controlling so many Gu Worms for such a long time not only consumed Inner Strength but also a great deal of spiritual power.
"Next, we just need to take out Elder Wu Hen, and victory will be ours," the Poisonous Insect King White Ghost said, "Unfortunately, I don't have the energy to help anymore."
"Yes! Now we can only rely on Xingluo Peak," Young Master Bai He said.
On the battlefield.
All the people from the Supreme Sect were gradually wiped out, leaving only Elder Wu Hen, who was still trying to escape while entangled with Yu Xing'er and the other five. But having been continuously attacked by the Defense Towers, he was now covered with wounds, struggling greatly.
"Cursed fate, to have fallen to this state…" gasped Elder Wu Hen.
"At the time when you killed my parents, you should have expected that I would definitely come back for revenge!" Yu Xing'er raised her sword finger at him.
At this moment Zhiyun, along with the remaining people, also surrounded Elder Wu Hen.
"You're finished!" the seriously injured Zheng Aotian called out, clutching his chest.
Elder Wu Hen still maintained a disdainful expression and said, "Do you think it's over? No, not yet. Lord Du Ye hasn't shown up yet, and all of you combined are no match for him."
"Du Ye??"
Upon hearing this, Zheng Aotian, Yu Xing'er, and the others subconsciously tensed up.
It was because of Du Ye that the Supreme Sect could become one of the three major Sects of Qinling; he had made meritorious deeds during the great Cultivation World turmoil a hundred years ago, which led to its development. Those who survived the great war a hundred years ago all had some abilities.
Over the past century, the Supreme Sect had survived several catastrophes and wars, all thanks to Du Ye's efforts.
He was a Grade Eight Grandmaster.
And more so.
He was known as the strongest Grandmaster within the Eighth-grade!
He even had legendary feats of defeating a Ninth Grade Grandmaster in an over-leveled battle!
As a result, the entire Qinling dared not do anything to the Supreme Sect.
It's just that in the past few decades, he was wholly devoted to secluded cultivation, so the outside world knew less about him.
People like Zhiyun, who joined Qinling only in recent years, did not know of his great name. Only those like Zheng Aotian, Hong Lian, and elders from Xingluo Peak, who held a certain position in their respective Sects and had access to higher levels, heard of such a person.
However, for Hong Lian and Yu Xing'er, being in their early twenties and sixteen or seventeen respectively, the figures from a hundred years ago did not impress them much.
Elder Hua Qing and those who had lived for several decades had experienced Du Ye's glorious era and knew well his terror!
"The invincible Du Ye, wasn't it said that after coming out of seclusion, he went to the 'Wutian' base to deal with Red Fire Palace? Why is he still at the Main Sect?!!" Elder Hua Qing asked hastily.
"Hmph!"
Elder Wu Hen chuckled coldly at the corner of his mouth, "Red Fire Palace is nothing but a minor issue, our Sect Master and the others can handle it. Does it need Lord Du Ye's involvement? Lord Du Ye has been cultivating here all along. I advise you to admit defeat quickly, otherwise, you will face a dead end!"
"No way!" Yu Xing'er brandished her sword.
Yet Elder Hua Qing and the others already showed fear in their eyes.
The higher the cultivation, the greater the chasm between each level.
A Grade Eight Grandmaster!
Moreover, he was the strongest Grandmaster within the Eighth-grade, far beyond their ability to confront.
In front of a Grade Eight Grandmaster.
Although they were numerous, they were like kindergarten children, completely powerless.
To Sixth Grade Grandmasters like Elder Hua Qing, they were merely like second or third-grade primary students in front of a Grade Eight Grandmaster.
Such a disparity in levels.
Could not simply be compensated by numbers...
