“Phew, it’s finally settled. Can you contact that helper of yours?”

Lin Bai landed steadily in front of Luo Ningyu and Little Blue.

Little Blue climbed onto Lin Bai’s body with a face full of joy. It did not care about the bright green blood on Lin Bai’s body and the Demon Flood Dragon’s minced meat on his body.

“Alright, I’m fine.” Lin Bai could not help but laugh. He rubbed Little Blue’s head hard. “Behave yourself.”

Little Blue revealed a satisfied expression as Lin Bai rubbed it. Only then did it jump off his shoulder and onto the ground.

“Luo Ningyu?”

After Lin Bai greeted Little Blue, he looked at the silent Luo Ningyu with a puzzled expression.

Luo Ningyu suddenly felt a warm current in her eyes. She turned her body slightly and in the next second, she turned around. Her face was as calm as water as she said,

“Okay, let me contact him.”

Luo Ningyu took out the jade pendant again. The jade pendant was like a glowing beetle, shining in the darkness.

“Finally, there is news. What happened just now? What did I miss? Damn it, I missed it again…”

Spiritual power surged in Luo Ningyu’s hand, and she was about to cut off the communication with the jade pendant when the man on the other end of the jade pendant shouted:

“Ahem, tell me about the situation on your side. I’m… I’m also a little curious. You don’t have to cut it off so easily, do you?”

The man’s voice was rarely serious.

Luo Ningyu said softly, “Let me tell you. The situation on our side is not very good right now. Up until now, the leader of the enemy has not been seen.”

As Luo Ningyu spoke, Lin Bai took out a set of clean clothes and came to the tree behind Luo Ningyu. He threw away the dirty clothes on his body and a ball of fire appeared in his palm to burn them into ashes.

Lin Bai took out another water bag and washed away the stinky blood on his face. Only then did he feel refreshed again.

“Heh, I didn’t expect that the great Luo Ningyu wouldn’t meet the enemy behind the scenes until now. If I were there, Humph…”

The man only acted half-cocky this time. “Continue.”

Only then did Luo Ningyu tell the man everything about her and Lin Bai sneaking into the Black Cloud Stockade, being ambushed by a group of people, and finally entering the mountain. She also told him everything about the mountain and the Demon Flood Dragon.

The other party was silent for a long while. Not only was he thinking of a plan, he was also in a state of shock.

After a long while, the other party finally uttered a few words, and a weak voice sounded, “M-flood-dragon? A Demonic Flood-Dragon?”

“Cough cough, I once killed a Demonic Flood-Dragon as well, but that was all in the past, so I won’t bring it up.”

“I mentioned before that the mountain you’re on is an altar right?”

Luo Ningyu nodded. “Yes, do you have a way to break the formation? It would be best if it can sabotage their plans too.”

Luo Ningyu saw from the corner of her eyes that Lin Bai had already arrived beside her. He was completely focused on the jade pendant, and his eyes were filled with contemplation.

“Of course I do. It’s a good thing that I’m here to help you guys. Haha. Long story short, you guys know a law, right?”

Luo Ningyu frowned slightly. She did not like this kind of suspense.

Lin Bai was very straightforward. He shook his head. “I don’t know.”

“Well, it doesn’t matter if you don’t know. After all, I haven’t said it yet. That law is that when things reach their extreme, they will turn against each other.”

“When things reach their extreme, they will turn against each other?” Luo Ningyu frowned even more.

“Didn’t you say that the demonic aura on that mountain is the densest place you have ever seen? I want to use this as a point to help you break the formation.”

“It just so happens that you’ve killed a Demonic Flood-Dragon. With the Demonic Flood-Dragon, breaking the formation will be much easier.”

“There should be an orb contaminated by the demon qi in the body of the Devil Flood Dragon. Take it out and break it into small pieces first. Listen carefully to the next steps, don’t make any mistakes…”

Lin Bai endured the stench and stuffed his hand into the body of the Demonic Flood-Dragon, fumbling around.

Why did I have to change my clothes just now?

Lin Bai couldn’t help but feel confused.

Fortunately, it didn’t take long for him to grab a round bead and pull it out.

A pitch-black bead that seemed to swallow all the light appeared.

As soon as the bead appeared, the surrounding demonic qi formed a cyclone with the bead as the center. It continuously surged into the bead.

“That’s it.” Lin Bai nodded.

Luo Ningyu was also ready, holding sixteen small flags in her hands.

Soon, Little Blue was also carrying a dead spirit beast the size of a mountain, heavily throwing it on the ground.

Then.

According to what the person on the other side of the jade pendant had said, they built another formation with sixteen small flags on the inside of the formation at the top of the mountain.

“I’ll say the details again. You have to confirm it without any mistakes. First…”

The man on the other side of the jade pendant also became serious.

“No problem.” Lin Bai nodded after confirming it again and again.

“Then the last thing is to put the pieces of the devil pearl on each flag.”

Lin Bai did it silently.

“Finally, throw the flesh and blood into the center of the array and drop three drops of blood essence.”

Little Blue placed the huge body in the center of the formation while Lin Bai poured out three drops of blood essence.

“The final and most crucial step…”

Following the instructions of the jade pendant, Lin Bai left the mountaintop with quick steps.

“Is it useless? Why isn’t there any reaction?”

Luo Ningyu looked at the mountaintop, but it was completely silent. There was no reaction at all.

“How can there be no response? No, even if there is a response, it’s you guys…”

Suddenly!

The entire mountain was filled with hundreds of millions of howls and howls.

The demonic qi at the top of the mountain was as wild and violent as a turbulent flow, filling every part of the mountain.

Lin Bai hurriedly channeled a trace of spirit energy into the small cauldron. With a buzz, the small cauldron emitted rays of golden light.

The golden light enveloped the two humans and one beast, preventing them from being eroded by the demonic qi.

The flowers, plants, and trees began to wither, and the soil became dry and cracked.

Soon after.

The withered flowers, plants, and trees were dyed with a layer of black. They gradually swelled and grew, and their branches and leaves continued to grow.

The cracked soil was also dyed with a layer of black, and it shattered into pieces…

Crack!

Crack!

Crack!

Crisp cracking sounds came from the direction of the mountain peak.

Not only that, there were also visible cracks in the sky. Moonlight poured in from the cracks, revealing bits of the starry sky.

“It’s broken!”

Lin Bai heaved a sigh of relief.

Even though the appearance of the mountain was getting more and more strange, even though the demonic qi on the mountain was dozens of times more vigorous than before…

They could finally get out of the array formation.

“No, Look!” Luo Ningyu cried out in surprise.

The cracked sky was gradually repaired, and the moonlight disappeared bit by bit. The dome gradually disappeared into the darkness.

“Let’s go!”

Lin Bai grabbed Luo Ningyu’s hand and ran toward the nearest direction.

On his way out, Lin Bai saw a few dead spirit beasts. The bodies of these spirit beasts were trembling slightly, as if they were about to come to life.

This made Lin Bai feel extremely uneasy.

“There!” Luo Ningyu pointed ahead. Not far away, there was a crack that was about to close up.

Lin Bai suddenly exerted strength under his feet.

The two of them and the Beast escaped from the formation in the nick of time.
