Chapter 546: The Powerful Red-Robed Elderly Men

When the fragment of the realm core released its true power, a white pillar of light blasted into the sky as invisible energy fluctuations radiated outward for several hundred kilometers in all directions, enveloping the entirety of Qi Lou City.

An Lin discovered that the black branches around his body were beginning to squirm as they glowed with a vibrant red light.

He looked around with an expression of despair. It didn’t appear as if there was anything he could do. Was he really just going to be trapped here in Qi Lou City forever? He didn’t want to accept this fate!

“Oh? We have some guests, Lü Cheng,” the stocky old man suddenly said.

The tall old man nodded in response. “I’ll capture them and use them as fertilizer.”

His body disappeared as his voice trailed off.

An Lin and the others all felt a hint of renewed hope upon hearing this.

In the air above Qi Lou City, Lü Dongbin tore open a spatial rift before walking out with Liu Chuchu in tow.

He looked at the black tower and swept his powerful divine sense through the building before his expression shifted drastically. “There are so many Return to Void Stage powerful beings imprisoned within that tower! Even An Lin is there!”

Liu Chuchu’s heart jolted in shock. “Even An Lin is there? We have to go and save them!”

“He is a member of the Heavenly Court, and I have to repay him in Xiao Tu’s stead anyway, so I’ll definitely save him. However, our enemy is extremely powerful, so you have to get out of here and go as far away as possible!” Lü Dongbin warned in a grave voice.

Liu Chuchu nodded and was just about to stage a retreat when a tall and thin elderly man in a red robe suddenly appeared before them.

“You’re here anyway, why not participate in our grand plan?”

“Go!” Lü Dongbin drew his longsword as a peerlessly sharp white sword projection swept through heaven and earth before descending upon the tall old man.

The elderly man stood resolutely before the sword projection as he threw a punch forward.

The tremendous force behind his fist instantly vanquished the white sword projection before slamming into Lü Dongbin’s body, creating a blast of air that knocked even the nearby Liu Chuchu flying.

Liu Chuchu capitalized on this power, and she retreated with Xue Mengmeng. A golden light flashed before her eyes as she turned her gaze on the tip of the black tower.

“Eye Technique, X-Ray Vision!”

Symbols revolved within her eyes while the walls of the black tower melted away before her eyes, thus revealing the interior within.

She then discovered that An Lin and a few other cultivators had been bound by black branches and were completely immobilized.

“Huh? There’s another one of them?” Liu Chuchu furrowed her brows before deciding against staging a rescue mission herself.

When Lü Dongbin was knocked flying by the elderly man’s punch, blood gushed forth from his mouth. He hadn’t underestimated the old man in the slightest and unleashed his full strength from the get-go, but he still sustained heavy wounds from their first clash.

The power imbued within that fist had already transcended beyond the pinnacle of Return to Void Intermediate Stage, but he was completely unable to detect the aura of the old man. It was as if he were just a wandering spirit with no sense of presence.

At this moment, another spatial rift was split apart in the distance.

Two snow maidens with flowing silver hair stepped out of it before their eyes lit up as they assessed the situation.

“Nice, Su Jingxiang! Our enemy is being held off by a human cultivator; let’s take this opportunity to grab the fragment of the realm core!” the snow maiden holding the ice doll said excitedly.

“Oh? Are fragments of the realm core really that easy to grab?”

An unhurried voice sounded nearby.

A short and stocky elderly man in a red robe appeared before the two snow maidens in the next instant.

“Go, Yan Hua, I’ll hold him off!”

A white ice lotus materialized in Su Jingxiang’s hand as she spoke to the snow maiden beside her.

Yan Hua immediately sprang into action and flew toward the tip of the black tower.

It was also at this moment that Su Jingxiang launched her ice lotus at the stocky old man.

The ice lotus instantly expanded to encompass an area with a radius of over a kilometer as boundless power of extreme frost surged violently through the air before converging upon the old man in the form of a destructive, sealing power.

The stocky old man had already summoned his guqin as he wobbled his head from side to side. “The song of illusion expends too much energy to play, looks like I’ll have to play the song of slaughter instead. What a pity for these little girls…”

His hand stroked the strings of the guqin as he spoke, and a series of short and sharp notes exploded forth.

The space within a radius of five kilometers suddenly congealed as the sound waves transformed into countless blades that tore through the air, which reduced the massive ice lotus to specks of white light, before flying toward the two snow maidens.

Yan Hua had only just unleashed a spell technique to break through the congealed space around her before countless blades of sound converged upon her.

As for Su Jingxiang who had volunteered to hold off the stocky old man, she was also in an extremely perilous situation…

Around fifteen kilometers away from the black tower, Liu Chuchu drew her pink bow. A crimson arrow materialized on the bowstring, making the air around it warp and shimmer with its fearsomely high temperature.

“Divine Technique—Explosive Flame Arrow!”

Whoosh!

The arrow shot forth, streaking through the air as if it were a meteorite.

The targets of the arrow were the black branches within the tower.

Since the two red-robed men were being distracted, it was now time to try and rescue An Lin!

Lü Dongbin was firmly on the back foot in his battle against the tall old man, but his spirits were immediately lifted at the sight of the crimson arrow. He then gritted his teeth and tried to go on the offensive.

Boom!

The Exploding Flame Arrow suddenly seemed to strike something when it was still around ten feet away from the tower, and its momentum came to a grinding halt. A rippled emanated forth from the surface of the black tower while a sharp screeching sound erupted as the arrow fought to break through, only to spontaneously explode, transforming the entire sky into a sea of flames.

The sea of flames was kept at bay by an invisible barrier, leaving the black tower completely unscathed.

“Don’t waste your energy. Do you all really think that we would leave the tower undefended? We may be old, but we’re not quite senile yet,” the tall old man said in a calm voice as he unleashed attacks on Lü Dongbin.

His attacks became more and more powerful as each and every one of his fists descended upon Lü Dongbin with mountainous force.

Lü Dongbin stumbled back in retreat, having already been forced to the brink of defeat.

He didn’t expect there to be a defensive spell formation too.

Is there really no hope…

Liu Chuchu pursed her lips before drawing her bow again.

Within the black tower.

An Lin and the others were unable to do anything but wait for the commencement of the ceremony.

Sharp, hollow tubes had already materialized on the branches, and they slowly positioned themselves over the hearts of their targets.

The location of Xue Zhantian’s heart was not very obvious. As such, the tube on his black branch was aimed at his mouth.

Xue Zhantian was scared to the point that he was on the brink of tears while he entertained the thought of committing suicide by biting through his own tongue.

Right at this moment, An Lin suddenly felt his pocket begin to bulge a little.

No, wait, it was bulging a LOT!

“F*ck! What the hell is this?” An Lin felt like his waist was being forced to the side by some massive object.

A bright white light then began to burst forth from his pocket.

Immediately following this was the sound of a sharp crack.

A thought suddenly occurred to An Lin. “Tina?”
