At this moment, just as Elder Chen's retaliatory black energy approached her, a burst of intense spiritual energy suddenly erupted beside her.
A flash of silver light blocked the attack of the black energy.
"Array Activate!"
With a delicate shout, the array flags scattered on the ground flew into the air, each emitting different colored lights, and moved towards Elder Chen's position.
Elder Chen's expression changed, realizing the danger. His figure flashed as he soared into the sky, his body glowing with a bloody light, and the blood-colored flying knife reappeared.
However, he only flew three or four zhang above the ground when a white light flashed before his eyes, and a two-zhang-long silver giant sword slashed down fiercely.
The blood-colored flying knife also surged with bloody light, blocking above Elder Chen's head. Blood energy and silver light collided, erupting in a series of sizzling sounds.
Zhang Ling scanned with his divine sense and saw another person beside Huang Ying. It was actually Tu Fei, who was supposed to be dead. This person was manipulating hand seals, and the silver giant sword was his magical artifact.
Before he could consider why this person hadn't died, he heard a crisp sound as the giant sword blocking Elder Chen was sent flying by the blood blade.
But at this moment, Elder Chen's expression was extremely unsightly. A layer of golden spiritual light rose around him, like a semi-transparent bowl covering a range of more than thirty zhang.
In this situation, he knew he was trapped by an array.
"Good, very good. You b*tch, I will make you wish you were dead," Elder Chen sneered, his spiritual power condensed, and the aura of a Golden Core cultivator erupted. His hands suddenly clasped together, and a ball of white light appeared in his hand.
"Fellow Daoists, act quickly! Attack together! As long as you kill this old thief, you will receive several Cold Jade Pills."
"People die for wealth, and birds die for food."
A fierce glint flashed in Zhang Ling's eyes. He flipped his right hand and revealed more than a dozen talismans, which he activated and launched at Elder Chen in the array.
Seeing Huang Ying's sneak attack on Elder Chen, and then Tu Fei's attack, he had the intention to kill Elder Chen.
Now that Elder Chen was trapped in the array, he had two choices: turn around and leave, or fight Elder Chen.
After thinking for a moment, he chose to attack. After all, the Cold Jade Pill was the purpose of this trip. Although the risk was great, he couldn't just run away from a Golden Core cultivator.
Hong Shan also understood this matter at the same time, and this woman also chose to attack.
She held a crimson jade fan in her hand, which, under the urging of her magic power, turned into a two- or three-foot-sized jade fan. With a vigorous wave, five or six wheel-sized fireballs attacked Elder Chen in a line.
Huang Ying held a bronze token in her hand, with five black tokens flying around it. It was obviously an array disk for trapping enemies.
This woman actually used her own strength to trap a Golden Core cultivator with an array, but seeing her pale face and white lips, it wasn't an easy task.
As for Tu Fei, a black wooden box appeared in front of him, from which countless silver light swords flew out. At a glance, there were as many as two or three hundred, all attacking Elder Chen in the array.
Zhang Ling didn't idle either. He held another spiritual talisman in his hand, pouring magic power into it frantically. The talisman gradually became transparent, and an exquisite golden wheel appeared in his palm. Golden spiritual threads surrounded the golden wheel.
As he continuously poured spiritual power, the golden wheel gradually became solid and thick, and at the same time, it rotated rapidly, emitting bursts of buzzing sounds.
"Talisman Treasure Golden Moon Wheel!"
Zhang Ling was urging this treasure. He knew that it was basically impossible to break through the defense of a Golden Core cultivator with ordinary attacks, so he used this trump card from the start.
However, Elder Chen's figure could not be seen in the array. Only a cloud of black mist could be seen, covering a space within seven or eight zhang. A blood blade flew around, constantly entangled with several silver giant swords, emitting a sound of metal clashing.
The other attacks, whether it was Zhang Ling's spiritual talismans or Hong Shan's huge fireballs, only scattered some of the mist when they entered the black mist, and did not achieve any success.
This scene made several people anxious, and they continued to increase their attack intensity.
Zhang Ling did not use other magical artifacts, but constantly activated talisman attacks. He did this to reduce the consumption of spiritual power.
At this moment, his consumption was not small, whether it was urging the array disk before or the talisman treasure now. They consumed a lot of spiritual power.
With his current cultivation, it was not a problem to activate more than a dozen low-level talismans at the same time. He had prepared a lot of spiritual talismans for this operation.
Compared to the others, Elder Chen's consumption was even greater. He was the main force in dealing with the Earth Armor Beast before, and he was also attacked just now. He would definitely not be in his prime.
This was also a major reason why they dared to attack.
Elder Chen was hiding in the black mist as he thought, holding a jade bottle in his hand, pouring out several pills and swallowing them, but his expression did not improve. He raised the arm that was attacked, his expression gloomy.
The arm that was attacked by Huang Ying was bleeding non-stop. There was a two-inch-sized wound on his arm, deep enough to see the bone. This kind of injury would be restored soon for a Golden Core cultivator.
But at this moment, several methods were used, but the wound could not be stopped. Whether it was healing pills or secret methods, they had lost their effect.
What was worse was that there was a strange spiritual power in his arm, and a burst of heat came from it, constantly devouring the spiritual power in his body.
This was obviously some kind of poison.
Elder Chen could only seal the meridians on his arm to prevent the erosion of this spiritual power, and deal with the injuries after solving the miscellaneous fish outside.
Originally, he only had about 30% of his spiritual power left to deal with the Earth Armor Beast. Now, he used a lot of spiritual power to suppress this spiritual power.
He could only use about 20% of his spiritual power.
But even if his strength was greatly reduced, he was confident that he could deal with the people outside.
Elder Chen smiled hideously, pinched a magic seal with one hand, condensed the spiritual power on his body, and spat out another mouthful of blood essence. After this blood essence was sprayed out, his face paled a lot.
Blood essence and cultivator's true essence are both very important.
After spitting out blood essence, he quickly condensed the magic seal. His current state was not suitable for a protracted war. He had to use secret techniques to break the array that trapped him in one fell swoop.
As long as there was no obstruction from this array, killing the people outside was as simple as crushing a few ants.
As Elder Chen cast the spell, the spiritual power in his hand, plus the blood essence, turned into a mass of black-green spiritual power. These spiritual powers made a series of soft sounds, turning into clusters of black-green flames.
Seeing this, Elder Chen cast several magic formulas on the flames. Suddenly, the black-green flames condensed into thick black-green fire snakes.
"Go!"
Elder Chen shouted loudly, and countless black-green black snakes rushed towards the sky with a crash.
