Chapter 400: Foundation

The Second Demon Venerable's pupils constricted. He had naturally noticed this scene. In fact, he had long noticed that something was wrong.

The protective array formation of the Jade Tripod Alchemy Sect was a little too strong. It was considered not bad if the protective array formation of a normal sect could withstand the attack of an Spirit Severing stage expert.

But now, there were many Spirit Severing stage experts behind him, and they even brought close to a hundred Void Refinement realm experts.

Gritting his teeth, Second Demon Venerable accumulated his strength silently. After accumulating his strength for a period of time, he suddenly exerted his strength and ruthlessly struck the light screen below with his palm.

Rumble!

An earth-shaking explosion sounded, and the light screen trembled violently.

However, it only trembled, and there were no signs of damage.

"This..." Second Demon Venerable was somewhat in disbelief. The quality of this sect protection array had already faintly surpassed the standard of the Crimson Fiend Sect.

How did the Jade Tripod Alchemy Sect set up such a powerful array?

Just as he was secretly shocked, he caught a glimpse of Perfected Yu Ding's teasing gaze through the light screen.

Seeing that he was acting as if he was looking at a monkey, he instantly flew into a rage.

This time, he was truly furious!

His vicious words just now were like a joke in front of this powerful defensive array. This made his face burn fiercely.

Without any further hesitation, a three-meter-long halberd flew out from his body. The halberd was crimson red and emitted extremely powerful spiritual energy fluctuations.

This was his life treasure!

"Break!"

Second Demon Venerable shouted sternly. The halberd fiercely pierced into the protective array under the urging of all the spiritual energy in his body!

Zila!

A strange sound rang out. The halberd opened up a small hole in the protective array and blasted into the array.

Seeing this scene, the Second Demon Venerable heaved a sigh of relief. Just as he pulled out the halberd and was about to expand the battle results, the hole lit up with a rich spiritual light and was restored to its original state.

"F*ck!"

Seeing this, the Second Demon Venerable immediately cursed. This protective array was actually a rare recovery array.

The strength of a recovery array was usually a little weaker, but he had tried the strength of the Jade Tripod Alchemy Sect's protective array. It could only be broken by a peak Spirit Severing stage cultivator like him.

This meant that the Jade Tripod Alchemy Sect's protective array formation was indeed better than their Crimson Fiend Sect's.

How many Spirit Stones did the Jade Tripod Alchemy Sect spend to set up such an array formation?

'Aren't they being a little too afraid of death!?!'

The Second Demon Venerable looked at Perfected Yu Ding inside the array formation. He was gritting his teeth with hatred, and his face alternated between green and white.

He had mobilized so many people to come here today, but they couldn't even break the Jade Tripod Alchemy Sect's protective array formation. If this were to spread out, he and the Crimson Fiend Sect would be put to shame!

"Which Demon Venerable of the Crimson Fiend Sect are you?"

At this time, a question from the Jade Tripod Alchemy Sect came from below.

The Second Demon Venerable was so angry that he almost vomited blood. It seemed that the other party still didn't know who he was!

"Perfected Yu Ding, the Jade Tripod Alchemy Sect can hide for a while, but you can't hide forever. If you have the ability, stay in the sect and don't come out. As long as a disciple dares to leave the sect, don't blame the Crimson Fiend Sect for being impolite!"

At this moment, Second Demon Venerable could only say a few harsh words to save himself from embarrassment.

The other cultivators who came along all had resentful expressions. They had heard that the Jade Tripod Alchemy Sect was an alchemy sect and thought that they could make a huge profit by coming here. They didn't expect that in the end, their efforts would be for naught and they would even lose quite a number of people, this made them very disappointed.

"Retreat!"

After realizing that the array formation couldn't be broken, Second Demon Venerable didn't want to delay any longer and directly ordered them to retreat.

A peak Spirit Severing stage cultivator couldn't break this array formation, but there was still hope for a few more experts.

When he returned this time, he would learn a lesson. The next time he gathered more strength, he would definitely be able to break through the Jade Tripod Alchemy Sect.

As soon as he finished speaking, the group of cultivators prepared to retreat. However, at this moment, the situation suddenly changed!

A few dark clouds drifted over in the distant sky. Soon after, two to three hundred cultivators appeared in the sky above the Jade Tripod Alchemy Sect.

The auras of these two to three hundred cultivators were mixed. It was obvious that they didn't come from the same strength.

More importantly, all the cultivators were wearing masks that could block divine senses. It was impossible to see their faces clearly.

"Fellow Daoist Yu Ding, I came as promised. Remember the reward you promised me."

One of them spoke. This person's voice was very hoarse, and it was probably an act.

Coupled with the ordinary itinerant cultivator's clothes and masks... it was obvious that these cultivators were doing their best to conceal their identities.

Of course, these weren't the things worth paying attention to. What was most worth paying attention to was that this person's aura was extremely strong, and he seemed to be an expert at the peak of the Spirit Severing stage. Thus, he and Perfected Yu Ding addressed each other as Fellow Daoist.

"Everyone, don't worry. When have I ever gone back on my words? I will definitely pay everyone's remuneration."

Reverend Yu Ding said with a smile.

"Then, we can rest assured. Taking money from others and eliminating disasters... are these cultivators your targets?" The person said again.

"That's right. Kill as many as you can. I don't want them alive." Perfected Yu Ding waved his hand and said in a very casual tone.

At this time, the Second Demon Venerable realized what had happened. The Jade Tripod Alchemy Sect had actually spent a lot of money to invite so many experts to deal with them!

This made him suddenly feel a chill down his spine!

Who would have thought that the Jade Tripod Alchemy Sect would be so well-prepared?

"Think carefully before you attack. I am the Second Demon Venerable of the Crimson Fiend Sect! If you touch the people of our Crimson Fiend Sect, you will never have peace in your life!"

The Second Demon Venerable threatened with a stern but timid expression.

In the end, it was fine if he did not mention the Crimson Fiend Sect, but once he mentioned the Crimson Fiend Sect's cultivators, they became even more restless.

"Crimson Fiend Sect, that's even better. Let's settle old and new grudges together."

"Hehe, I have long disliked you!"

Hearing these words, the Second Demon Venerable's expression became extremely ugly.

The Crimson Fiend Sect had many enemies. These people hid their appearances, so he could not guess their identities.

However, he knew that these people were only experts from some sects within a radius of hundreds of thousands of kilometers. However, no matter how strong the Crimson Fiend Sect was, they could not deal with them one by one.

With that thought, his expression softened a little. He said, "Everyone, no matter how much the Jade Tripod Alchemy Sect offers, our Crimson Fiend Sect is willing to increase it by 20%. We only hope that you will back off. If you follow me and destroy the Jade Tripod Alchemy Sect, the things inside will be yours to take!"

"Haha, Second Demon Venerable, we have been here for so long. Let's not talk about such nonsense."

The hoarse-sounding person laughed out loud. Then, without any reservations, he directly attacked the Second Demon Venerable.

Apart from him, there was also an expert at the later stage of the Spirit Severing Stage assisting from the side.

Most of the other Crimson Fiend Sect cultivators were also facing the encirclement of two to three cultivators. Let alone injuring or killing the enemy, they couldn't even remove the mask on the enemy's face.

..

Inside the array formation below, Perfected Yu Ding stood with his hands behind his back and watched this scene coldly.

It didn't take long before cultivators started to die. Moreover, this death caused a chain reaction. In an instant, the Crimson Fiend Sect cultivators began to flee in all directions.

The masked cultivators, on the other hand, chased after them with the intention of exterminating them. Soon, only a few scattered people were still fighting above the Jade Tripod Alchemy Sect.

Chen Chen silently looked at Perfected Yu Ding in the distance.

It had to be said that this sect master was not simple. He could actually gather so many experts in such a short time.

Other than the terrifying wealth and foundation, what was even more terrifying was their connections and resources. Even if some sects had enough Spirit Stones to invite powerful experts, they would not be able to gain the trust of those experts.

As if sensing Chen Chen's gaze, Perfected Yu Ding said indifferently, "Chen Chen, the cultivators who ascended to the upper realm only went through the experience of the lower realm. Compared to these natives of the upper realm, we are stronger in both talent and temperament. The only thing we lack is time. As long as we have enough time to settle down, there are really not many cultivators of the same realm who can compare to us."

After saying that, Perfected Yu Ding's long robe fluttered even though there was no wind. Then, he flew out of the formation and flew toward the two Demon Venerables who were fighting inensely in the distance.
