I opened my eyes and looked at the world before me. The other three people were still seated rather far away from me. I could barely make out their faces.
Just when I was about to set up the barrier, I heard a ruckus outside. My current location is at the boundary of the barrier. When I opened my eyes and looked outside, I was shocked.
So it turns out that there were still people who were unwilling to give up and wanted to kill the Demon General for revenge.
I can understand the deep hatred between us, but at this critical juncture, destroying our actions is undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire, no longer putting our lives in our eyes.
The people guarding outside the barrier are the trusted aides of us, so we can resist for a while at the moment of accident.
But looking at the situation outside, the two groups of people seemed to be fighting in a deadlock. Our side does not have an overwhelming advantage. If they were to let one of them escape and destroy the barrier, the consequences would be unthinkable.
Even though I was anxious, I couldn't help. I couldn't leave a corner of the formation, otherwise, a hole would appear in my position.
At this point, my sister is getting bigger and bigger, and I can feel the Spiritual Energy in my body rapidly disappearing. Shuo Yue had once said that this technique could test the strength of a Spirit Master. If her mana and Spiritual Energy were not profound enough, it would be difficult to control the pressure on her position at this time.
I could feel an edible pressure coming at me. I didn't know if I could continue on in other directions.
The current situation could be considered a case of internal and external troubles. Although they had made sufficient preparations, there would still be accidents.
However, just at this moment, a figure that I had been thinking about day and night appeared outside the barrier.
Zhang Ziyuan!? I almost blurted it out, but under the immense pressure, I could only open my mouth, but no sound came out.
However, the questions in his mind only increased. Why would he appear here? Have you recovered from your injuries? Why did he leave without saying goodbye? At this time, many questions began to arise within his mind.
Zhang Ziyuan seems to have recovered his mana, since he had joined the Battle, we have an overwhelming power.
Could he have disappeared recently? Did you learn how to find a place to treat your injuries? With such heavy injuries, who was the one who healed him?
However, looking at how lively he was and his complexion was pretty good, I felt relieved. After so many days, the haze in my heart has gradually dissipated. It seems that this is called a road for no man under heaven.
Although I couldn't hear any sounds coming from outside, I could see from the screen that this battle was extremely tragic.
My disciples have already made it clear to them that even if someone comes to destroy the barrier, if they do not truly harbor malicious intent, then they should not attack heavily.
With this, we'll be at a disadvantage if we don't send disciples and we're determined to take revenge.
However, Zhang Ziyuan's appearance made the situation much more stable. With Zi Lang's superb martial arts, they could basically control the chaotic situation.
My heart gradually settled down and I closed my eyes again. I needed to be completely focused in order to realize my greatest potential.
Suddenly, I felt my heartbeat quicken. It seems that the barrier has reached its limits. If we were to continue like this, our lives would be in danger.
I was still pressured speechless as I opened my eyes to look at the others in fear. Because Shuo Yue was too far away, I couldn't see her figure, and the remaining two people also closed their eyes tightly. Their faces were pale white, as if they were experiencing great pain.
I don't know how much time has passed. I only know that the construction of this knot is still continuing. I am already pressured to the point that I can't breathe and immediately a feeling of suffocation assails me.
It looks like even if the four of us were to work together, it would be extremely difficult to create such a huge barrier.
My eyes had begun to blur. I couldn't imagine what would happen if I passed out. Just as I was in a trance, I saw a figure land in the middle of the barrier.
Who is it? After all, outsiders can't casually enter the barrier. Could it be that the Demons is here to destroy us?
As this thought flashed through his mind, he felt the pressure on his body lessen. His vision gradually cleared up, opening his eyes and looking carefully, the figure that landed in the middle was actually Demon Lord.
~ Strange, isn't this Demon Lord the son of the Demon General and a human? Logically speaking, his physique is very ordinary, he doesn't even have the strength to tie up a chicken, why is his mana suddenly so strong?
I couldn't remember how long it had been, but I realized that it had been three days and three nights.
The pressure has already completely dissipated and it has already disappeared. I opened my eyes and composed myself. I stood up and looked around me. I was still inside the barrier.
I moved for a bit and discovered that even though my body was still in good condition and not damaged in any way, the Spiritual Energy inside my body was empty. I couldn't feel anything anymore, which gave me a big fright.
Could it be that this was the result of him using too many techniques, causing him to lose all of his Spiritual Energy?
I bitterly smiled. The price was too high. I wonder if the other people had any symptoms of discomfort. Thinking of this, I quickly ran over.
Big Brother Fu had already fainted, as if all his strength had been used up. His face was pale.
I wobbled a few times and called out a few names, but he was still in a deep coma and didn't wake up.
Zhang Shaowu also fainted, but after I shook him a few times, he slowly woke up and opened his confused eyes.
Why is it already over? Rubbing his head, Zhang Shaowu said.
I nodded my head. That should be the case. From the looks of it, I have already succeeded. When did you faint?
I can't remember anything at all... I only remember that as the barrier got bigger, the pressure on my body also got bigger and bigger. In the end, I felt like I couldn't take it anymore …
So how do you feel now?
Right now, I can feel that the Spiritual Energy in my body has disappeared without a trace, and I can't use any strength at all.
So that's how it is. Not only me, everyone seems to have lost Spiritual Energy s, but more or less.
Shuo Yue, by the way, how is he? The pressure he was under seemed to be several times greater than ours.
You should rest here for a while, I will go and see Shuo Yue. Saying that, I ran to the west side.
Shuo Yue's situation was indeed not too optimistic. Not only had he fallen into a severe coma, blood had been left on her nose and mouth. It seemed that not only had her Spiritual Energy been damaged, she was also severely injured.
It seemed like the situation wasn't too good. Fu Junqing was currently unconscious, so it would be better to see who he was looking for. I was suddenly flustered and very anxious.
From the looks of it, he seemed to have suffered a backlash. Even if he risked his life, he would still suffer a strong impact. The situation was not looking good!
I feel that I have never felt so regretful before, my tears couldn't stop flowing down, I didn't expect that I would still harm Shuo Yue.
He never said anything about the backlash. Didn't the barrier succeed? As I helped him up and put him on Zhang Shaowu's back, I said.
This barrier is simply too huge. It is very easy for the caster to suffer a backlash at the same time it is formed. I'm guessing that you are worried that he didn't tell you in advance.
I wiped away my tears. Without much time to think, I hurriedly sent Shuo Yue back. Other than him, none of us have the ability to treat such a heavy patient.
Zhang Shaowu glanced at the Big Brother Fu on the ground: "Don't worry, his problem isn't too big, he's just a bit weak. When he wakes up later, he should be able to go find him, and the agarwood door that Shuo Yue left behind should be right in front of us.
Apart from the barrier, a group of people had surrounded the area. Among them, there were many people from other sects who had ulterior motives.
I also didn't want to ask who caused the trouble outside the barrier and caused the fire to start. Right now, the only thing I cared about was where Zhang Ziyuan had gone to.
However, after asking everyone, they all confirmed that they had indeed seen him. He had come out during the chaos to turn the tide, but after the chaos ended, he had to disappear. They couldn't find him anymore.
Strange, if he really could find a way? He healed his injuries, why didn't he come out to meet me? Or was there something else he didn't want me to know?
Shuo Yue followed along as she walked, but we were helpless. It was only when Fu Junqing came that he started to treat us.
"The backlash from the barrier should have been shared evenly among the four of us, but Shuo Yue bore all of it. If we continue to calculate it like this, the backlash he has to bear is four times her original strength …"
What? I turned pale with fright. Didn't I say that there was something I needed to take responsibility for? Why was this happening?
"Then is there still a way to treat it?" Zhang Shaowu asked in a low voice.
"His current situation is extremely critical, and his internal organs have already suffered heavy setbacks. In the current situation, if I treat him, I can only save his life. As for when he'll recover or even wake up, I don't know …"
"Is there no other way?"
"I need to study this. Anyway, with the current situation, it's better for him to rest and not disturb anyone."
I retreated out of my mind, feeling that I, the culprit, had caused one person after another to fall into a predicament and be seriously injured.
Now that Zhang Ziyuan is missing again, and that Shuo Yue and Li He Yue are also severely injured on the bed, I feel that all of this is because of me.
"Actually, before we made our move, Shuo Yue had told me about this before. Zhang Shaowu whispered to me. "
"What did he tell you?"
"He once asked me if this mission was dangerous. If I failed, would I have to pay a heavy price? He asked me if, if, if, if … "
It seems that Shuo Yue had thought about things much more than I did. Him being able to make such a choice, proves that he does not wish for even more people to be harmed because of this.
