Star Trace Gate

Chapter 696: The Dome is Surge, Here is Upside Down

Outside the sect's blessed land, the originally chaotic battlefield suddenly became silent after the warning voice of the Heavenly Dao slowly dissipated.

The hanging old man was actually beheaded?

And it was killed by the little emperor alone?

This is impossible and unreasonable!

The upside-down old man is the strongest guarding soul in the defending camp. With the blessing of the rules of heaven, he is almost invincible. How can the little emperor defeat him alone?

The way of heaven is unfair here. It is so unfair!

The sudden death of the upside-down old man was as devastating to the defending magistrate as an incident in which an old man went out for a meal, but was suddenly found by the technician to have a fungal infection for at least a week. He thought about it carefully and realized that he had only handed in his homework on time a week ago... and he had not run away.

boom!

The sky is falling!

My mind and body suffered a double blow. For a moment, I didn't know whether to blame the unsanitary way of collecting the work or the technician's frankness.

In front of the sect gate, all the defenders with magical powers were stunned, as if they had lost their direction in an instant, and their morale plummeted.

Many people cursed the injustice of heaven, thinking that the emperor had good fortune, and must have been blessed by the gatekeepers. But little did they know that the old man who was hanging upside down did not rely on his fighting power, but on his willpower and brain.

Next to a teleportation array, Cao Yufei's eyes were blank and his brain was boiling.

Damn it, how did he get into the sect? We have to do personnel screening every night. If they come in, where did the supernatural power master who was replaced go?

If a person dies, the pass will return; if a person does not die, he will be automatically teleported back when the time comes...

So how did he manage to prevent these people from being teleported and dying? This is too weird.

Cao Yufei fell into a state of extreme concentration. He thought of many possibilities, and suddenly an idea came to him. He murmured in a somewhat collapsed voice: "The forbidden area... Only the forbidden area has ever had people stay there. He actually mastered the ability to open the forbidden area at any time... Damn it, their feint attack that time was just to steal people."

"Okay, okay, Wang Changfeng has already been a puppet, right? Are you the one who is actually directing the whole thing behind the scenes?"

His lips trembled and his fists clenched. Although he had figured out the key point, it was too late to save the situation now because the sect was in complete chaos.

[All channel notification: The temple gatekeeper is hanging upside down and dies, which boosts the morale of the attackers and triggers the defenders' special rule "Fight to the Death."]

[Rules of the duel to the death: The old man who hangs upside down dies, and no one is suppressing the Gutan Temple. This makes it possible for Tianfeng Zhenren and other Gutan Sect masters to escape, which is a fatal change for the defending camp. The winning conditions of the defending side are changed: In addition to capturing 51 attackers, the defending side must also prevent the attackers from awakening Tianfeng Zhenren and eventually kill him in order for the entire camp to win. If the above two conditions are not met, the entire camp will fail. ]

"It's over, the winning conditions have changed?!"

"We no longer have the Hanging Old Man, and you still want to kill Tianfeng Zhenren?"

"It's over. The situation has changed. Something big is going to happen."

"...!"

The defending group of supernatural masters were struck by lightning again. It was like when Lao Pu was struggling over whether to blame the person who collected the homework or the technician, he opened the door to find that both his people and his money were gone, and there was only a notice of recovery and discharge left by the person who collected the homework on the table.

She recovered from her illness, she was healthy again, and she ran away with someone!

Next to the teleportation array, despite suffering such a huge change and double blow, Cao Yufei still did not collapse mentally, become anxious and lose his composure, but only quickly weighed the pros and cons.

Don’t panic, don’t panic, otherwise there will be a complete collapse.

At this moment, the Little Emperor reversed the offensive and defensive situation, making his side completely passive, but... but if you think about it carefully, the defender still has a great chance.

This opportunity lies in the way of entering the Gutan Sect. If the attackers want to reach the temple and meet up with the Little Emperor, they must seize the six teleportation arrays in front of the sect. There is no other way. The defenders currently control the teleportation arrays and can support the two battlefields inside and outside the sect at any time. In this way, they have more initiative in personnel deployment than the attackers.

In order to stabilize the situation again, we must find the weakest link of the attacking side...

In a very short time, Cao Yufei's eyes glowed brightly again, and he whispered softly, "Yes, the prisoners, those prisoners are the weakest link of the attackers...!"

Thinking of this, he suddenly stepped onto the battle stage, radiating his awareness to the utmost, and sent a message to every defending magician: "Everyone, don't panic, don't get confused! Although Daoxuan is dead, Xiao Renhuang and his men must have fought to the death. Don't forget, they brought a bunch of burdens with them!"

"Everyone, please listen to me first. I must bring another thirty experts back to help."

"Who is willing to risk their lives, stay here and fight to stabilize our situation?"

He shouted loudly as he scanned the battlefield.

After a few breaths, an old supernatural being wearing a green robe and shaved head replied in a low voice: "In this battle, I, the Wall-Facing Man, must win. I am willing to stay here and protect you until the end, even at the cost of my blood spilling on the teleportation platform."

"I am willing to stay and fight to the death!"

"Lord Barbarian once said that victory or defeat here will determine where disaster strikes. I want to stay here!"

"...!"

A series of old voices came into Cao Yufei's ears. There were more than a dozen super-class people here who were willing to stay and lead the remaining powerful people in a bloody battle.

Not far away, Ding Hun punched an attacker away and whispered, "I am also willing to lend you a hand and stay here to fight!"

What he said was that he was willing to lend a helping hand to Cao Yufei, not that he was the wall-facing man. This shows that the friendship between the two is more important than their positions. Although he really wanted to enter the sect and fight with the Human Emperor, he had to give up at this moment.

Cao Yufei looked at him deeply and said, "I'll be quick!"

"Must win!!"

Ding Hun's hair flew in the air and he shouted, "Please ask the eleven super-class people to each hold the sect-protecting magic weapon and stay here to fight with me. Even if you die here, you will never retreat a single step!"

"Boom!"

As soon as these words were spoken, those white-haired wall-facing super-class people, for some unknown reason, all burst out with the most turbulent aura, took the defenders' unique sect-protecting magic weapons from others, and rushed outwards together, forcing back the attackers' attacking edge.

At the front of the crowd, Ding Hun tried his best to sublimate his personal aura, freed himself from his own shackles, returned to the peak of the fourth rank, and fought alone against three super-class New Year's Eve keepers.

……

In front of the temple.

After the death of the hanging old man, the Little Bad King also heard the reminder from heaven that the winning conditions for the defenders had changed, so he rushed into the temple as soon as possible and rushed to the Heavenly Prison against all odds.

Soon, he followed the rotten stairs to the ninth floor of the temple tower, and once again saw the straight and towering dome and the bright wall at the end of the dark corridor.

After passing the light wall, you should reach the central part of the nine-story prison of the temple. Zhenren Tianfeng and other masters of the Gutan Sect should be suppressed there.

"Whoosh!"

This time, Ren did not hesitate at all. His body turned into an afterimage, and with a bang, he broke through the wall of light and rushed into a white fog.

The fog was flowing, visibility was extremely low, and the surroundings were very quiet. Only above the dome, there seemed to be a faint sound of flowing water.

"Wow!"

As soon as he entered, the flowing white mist slowly dissipated and the surrounding scenery gradually became clear.

This place is very large, like a Taoist temple for praying and asking questions from heaven. It is surrounded by various ancient stone sculptures, altars, and wooden bookshelves filled with various classic books.

Ren Ye looked around the environment, but when he looked up, he was stunned in amazement.

He saw nearly a hundred Taoists in white robes sitting upside down under a dome several dozen meters high. The younger ones were in their fifties or sixties, while the older ones had wrinkled faces and hair as white as snow. It was impossible to tell their exact age, but he thought they were at least over a hundred years old.

In the middle of the crowd of people in white, there was an old man sitting upside down in cloth clothes and cloth shoes. He had white hair and a ruddy complexion, but his exact age could not be determined, and he did not exude the slightest bit of mysterious aura.

His eyes were closed and his breathing was steady, as if he was in a trance. His entire body, like the others in white, was restrained by a faint black aura and he seemed unable to move at all.

"Whoosh!"

Ren also suddenly jumped up, flew into the air, and floated straight towards the old man in cloth.

He knew very well that time was life for both the attacker and the defender, and not a single second could be wasted. The old man in gray sat upside down in the center of the dome, and his clothes were too simple, and he looked extraordinary.

"Ong!"

Ren Ye penetrated the light white mist, and in the blink of an eye he came to the side of the gray-clothed old man, and instantly exuded perception.

[Congratulations, you have finally reached the Heavenly Prison of Gutan Sect and successfully found Master Tianfeng and a group of masters of Gutan Sect.]

[You have successfully triggered the awakening rule: The old man who was hanging upside down was a very powerful existence among the bald law enforcers. After he led a group of bald men to capture Gutan Sect, in order to avoid the rescue of the people of order, he sacrificed his lifespan and used a number of very strange taboos on Gutan Sect to confuse the audience and wait for the opportunity. Now, although he is dead, his taboos have not been broken. Tianfeng Zhenren and other Gutan Sect masters are still suppressed in a certain illusion and cannot extricate themselves. ]

[Warm Tips: Tianfeng Zhenren once personally refined nine magic swords as the formation of the Nine Mountains Sword Formation, the strongest sword formation of Gutan Sect. But before the war started, a traitor of Gutan Sect, with several bald masters, sneaked into the prison and tried to steal the nine swords, but he never thought that the sword formation had spirits... The two sides fought a great battle, and finally the nine magic swords flew away and their whereabouts are unknown.]

Ren Ye listened to Tiandao's reminder, his expression was a little frozen, and his brain was working rapidly.

The whereabouts of the nine broken swords in the Nine Mountains Sword Formation are unknown. Aren’t these the rusty ancient swords that I got when I was doing the mission before?

Before the war, a traitor came with a bald man to steal, but he never expected that the sword formation had spirits, and the nine swords flew away and their whereabouts were unknown...

Ren Ye subconsciously rubbed his chin with his hand and whispered, "Why do they have to risk stealing before the war?! This shows that the upside-down old man and other bald men are very afraid of these nine swords?! Also, the sword formation was originally in the Heavenly Prison, so it must have been set up by Tianfeng himself... Oh, I see, what the Heavenly Dao means is that in order to break the taboo of the upside-down old man, the sword formation must be rebuilt, so that Tianfeng can walk out of the illusion and break all laws with the sword formation?!"

"I am so damn smart, and I have an unrivaled vision... I thought this broken sword must be an important magic weapon."

Ren Ye figured everything out in an instant, and reached out and took out eight talismans from his arms. Six of them were obtained from a series of errands he had completed, and the other two were secretly given to him by Wang Changfeng before he joined the sect.

Each of the eight talismans contains a broken sword.

Before Ren Ye prepared to return to his ancestral land for the first time, he specifically instructed Wang Changfeng to ask other attacking masters whether they had ever received such a broken sword reward. In the end, only two people got it and handed it over.

Damn, this is still one step short...

Ren Ye frowned and said, "Never mind for now, let's look for traces of the sword formation here first and see how to use these talismans. If we can put down a few more, we can put them down again."

He turned around and was about to return to the ground, but suddenly he heard the clear sound of a surging tide above the dome.
