With a turn, the meatball exploded!
The terrifying air current blasted the Seventh Elder and Ye Fan away!
"Bang!"
"Gurgle..."
They fell heavily to the ground, rolling several times before stopping.
The Seventh Elder lay weakly on Ye Fan, her face contorted in pain.
Her back clothes were completely obliterated by the explosion, and her exposed skin was covered in wounds of various sizes.
Her entire back was stained red with blood!
Some of the wounds had been instantly cauterized by the high temperature, forming ugly and horrifying scars.
Through the wounds and torn muscle, the shadows of her internal organs were vaguely visible...
At this moment, she felt pain all over her body, as if her body had shattered!
A slight vibration came from the ground.
The Seventh Elder knew it was the sound of the demon beasts running.
But now, she couldn't even move a finger, let alone fight back...
A deep despair instantly enveloped her heart...
Her consciousness began to blur...
It seemed that today...
She would die here...
Sect Master, I am sorry...
I failed to complete the mission you assigned...
...
Suddenly, she felt a strange sensation on her lips.
It was as if something was trying to pry her mouth open.
She instinctively wanted to resist, but she was too weak.
Soon, the thing pried open her mouth and drilled inside.
Her tongue felt a cool sensation and a slightly sour taste.
Then, the taste turned into a warm current that flowed down her throat towards her Dantian.
It was a pill!
The Seventh Elder finally realized!
As the medicinal power dissipated, her mind finally regained some clarity.
She felt a sensation on her lips again.
She opened her eyes and saw two fingers holding a pill and feeding it into her mouth.
This time, she cooperatively opened her mouth and swallowed the pill in one gulp!
She even swallowed so forcefully that she pulled the fingers holding the pill into her mouth!
Her true energy was rapidly recovering!
The pain in her body was diminishing!
Her back felt a tingling sensation, accompanied by an itching.
The Seventh Elder knew this was a sign that her wounds were healing!
At this moment, she was utterly shocked!
She had been severely injured once before, to a similar extent.
At that time, the Second Elder had shaken his head helplessly, stating he could do nothing.
Such injuries were almost impossible to heal. Even if she survived, she would have to be bedridden for ten to eight years.
Furthermore, it would leave serious after-effects, causing her cultivation to regress.
Later, True Master Yunhua went to great lengths to find her a sixth-grade Life-Returning Pill.
Then, she was bedridden for a month before fully recovering!
It was precisely that experience that made her deeply aware of the power of sixth-grade pills!
Such horrific injuries had healed in just a month!
And without any after-effects!
It could be called a miracle!
But now, she realized how ridiculous her previous thoughts were!
In the blink of an eye, her injuries had completely healed!
Compared to this pill, the previous sixth-grade pill was trash!
The effect was simply terrifying!
She wouldn't even dare to imagine something so bold in her dreams!
It was no different from being resurrected on the spot!
Such a feat was probably something only the legendary, ethereal Immortals could achieve!
When she had learned that Ye Fan was a seventh-grade alchemist, she had indeed thought he was amazing.
But this was just a vague concept in her mind, with no tangible experience.
It was only at this moment that she truly understood what a seventh-grade alchemist meant!
Such a person was far superior to an army of thousands!
It was terrifying!
"¥%&%..."
Ye Fan, who was beneath the Seventh Elder, said something.
The Seventh Elder quickly got up.
"Hoo—hoo—!"
Freed, Ye Fan gasped for breath.
The Seventh Elder's pressing down on him had finally put him in a difficult position...
Coupled with being muffled for so long, he had almost suffocated...
After catching his breath, Ye Fan placed his right hand on the Seventh Elder's thigh.
Seventh Elder: ???
Ye Fan rubbed his fingers on her thigh a few times, with a look of disgust on his face.
This woman was too wild earlier!
She almost swallowed his fingers while taking the pill.
It had made his mouth full of saliva...
Seventh Elder: !!!
But soon, she had no time to dwell on these matters.
Because the demon beasts had arrived!
As the Seventh Elder was about to attack, she caught sight of something flying towards her out of the corner of her eye.
"There's this too."
Seeing that it was a pill, the Seventh Elder swallowed it without hesitation!
As the medicinal power dissipated, she felt a noticeable lightness in her body!
With a movement, she discovered that her speed had increased!
She was familiar with this feeling, having experienced it once before!
With the aid of the medicine, the Seventh Elder finally gained the upper hand.
She darted and weaved among the demon beasts, finding opportunities to deliver fatal blows!
It was actually quite comical.
The defenses of these demon beasts were not originally this weak.
Even with her speed enhanced, the power of her attacks had not changed.
Previously, these demon beasts had made her extremely disheveled with their tough hides.
But the explosion of that meatball earlier was an indiscriminate AoE attack...
It could be said that these demon beasts were already injured by that blast...
After a flurry of attacks, the Seventh Elder easily achieved victory.
Ye Fan quickly walked over and began collecting the corpses of the demon beasts.
After all, he was poor now and had to be frugal with his expenses...
The Seventh Elder watched quietly.
Thinking about Ye Fan wiping his saliva on her thigh earlier, she couldn't help but feel a pang of embarrassment...
"Alright, let's continue."
After collecting the corpses, Ye Fan led the way in another direction.
Since he had figured out what the formation was, Ye Fan naturally had an idea of the locations of the other stone pillars.
That's right, the stone pillar just now was only the beginning.
There were three more stone pillars waiting for Ye Fan to decipher!
Not long after, the two arrived at the location of the second stone pillar.
As before, Ye Fan carved runes on the ground and 'pulled' out the stone pillar.
"Take these." Before taking action, Ye Fan gave the Seventh Elder two more pills: "Eat them when necessary."
He didn't want to experience that heart-pounding feeling again...
One increased perception, and the other increased attack power.
These were sufficient to deal with the current situation.
At this point, Ye Fan had to lament his foresight, otherwise, it would have been truly difficult now.
After the Seventh Elder accepted the pills, Ye Fan busied himself with the pillar.
Meanwhile.
Compared to Ye Fan's ease, True Master Yunhua and his group were having a tough time.
With the collapse of the first stone pillar, the situation had instantly worsened!
Several black vortexes appeared in the battlefield without any warning!
The demon beasts that ran out were no longer invisible, but each one was fiercer than the last!
Dealing with that one invisible demon beast had already been enough for them.
Before, they were like a stretched rubber band, pulled to its limit.
Now that so many more had appeared, they were on the verge of cursing.
They had to contend with attacks from invisible demon beasts and defend against ambushes from the newly appeared ones.
For a time, everyone felt immense pressure!
Time passed slowly.
Ye Fan resolved the second stone pillar, and True Master Yunhua's group was met with another wave of demon beasts...
Casualties began to increase.
More and more people fell. Da Feng Novel Network
...
Finally!
By the time the fourth stone pillar was dealt with, the Yunhua Sect and the Boundless Sect were almost annihilated...
Besides True Master Yunhua, only four elders remained on the Yunhua Sect's side.
The Boundless Sect was slightly better off, with four and a half remaining.
The reason for it being half was that the elder was close to death...
And with the disappearance of the last stone pillar, the surrounding scene finally changed!
The white mist finally dissipated!
Everyone then realized that they were in the ruins of a building.
Scattered flames were still visible on the ground, and the air was thick with heat.
The hidden demon beasts also revealed their true forms!
