Immortal Mansion: With mediocre qualifications, I have no choice but to live forever

Yan Yi and others thought that the defensive forces of the camp had been completely lured away by Zhou Yiqiao. However, when they broke into the core area of ​​the camp and prepared to destroy the spiritual herbs in it, they found that they had entered a carefully set trap.

After the monsters entered the core area, mysterious spiritual patterns suddenly lit up on the ground of the camp.

A huge complex magic circle was formed in an instant, surrounding all the monsters.

This magic circle is different from the outer defenses that obviously seem to be built temporarily. It appears to be more ancient and profound. Each spiritual pattern seems to contain the mysteries of mountains, rivers, lakes, sun, moon and stars, and releases waves of heart-pounding spiritual power as it flows.

Yan Yi and the others were trapped in a magic circle, and the surrounding spiritual energy was rapidly deprived, causing their physical strength and the power of their inherited secret skills to drop sharply.

What's worse is that this magic array does not just deprive them of their spiritual power, it also manipulates their lost spiritual power in reverse, condensing it into waves of fierce attacks, like an endless storm, violently rushing towards them.

"What's going on? Didn't Mr. Zhou say that the defense forces in the camp had been diverted?"

A demon cultivator couldn't help but complain during the tough battle, and his voice was filled with dissatisfaction towards Zhou Yiqiao.

Although Yan Yi also felt a lot of pressure, he still firmly supported Zhou Yiqiao.

"Mr. Zhou must have his own plan. We can't just give up!"

However, as more guards joined the camp, the situation for Yan Yi and others became increasingly unfavorable.

"Haha, let's see how long you can hold on!"

One of the guards laughed loudly.

"You are really overestimating your own capabilities. You actually dared to attack our spiritual herb cultivation base that we have been armed for several months!"

Another guard scoffed.

At this moment, even Yan Yi, who trusted Zhou Yiqiao the most, felt a sense of powerlessness.

He also began to doubt whether Zhou Yiqiao really had some plan, or whether all of them had been misled and stepped into this crisis from which there was no turning back.

However, he also knew that at this critical moment of life and death, his only option was to believe that Zhou Yiqiao would come back to help.

Yan Yi took a deep breath, and with a sharp gaze he glanced at his fellow soldiers who were struggling beside him, and said in a deep voice.

"Everyone, we can't just sit there and wait for death!"

"Although this formation is powerful, it is not invulnerable."

"We must find its weakness and attack it together, only then can we survive!"

As soon as Yan Yi finished speaking, a clear sword sound suddenly came from the night sky of the camp.

Immediately afterwards, a bright sword light streaked across the sky, like a falling meteor, and struck directly at the core of the magic circle.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the light of the magic circle vibrated violently under the impact of the sword light, and the spiritual patterns that were originally flowing continuously stopped for a moment.

Yan Yi and others suddenly felt the pressure relieved. They knew that Zhou Yiqiao had returned.

Zhou Yiqiao's figure appeared above the camp like a ghost, with his Netherworld Demon Sword in his hand, the tip of the sword pointing directly at the weakness of the magic circle.

His arrival seemed to inject a powerful force into Yan Yi and others, and the fire of hope rekindled in their eyes.

“Mr. Zhou!”

A demon cultivator couldn't help but shout, and a look of joy appeared on his face.

Yan Yi and the others also smiled. They knew that as long as Zhou Yiqiao was there, there was hope.

Zhou Yiqiao did not respond; his entire attention was focused on the magic circle.

The current situation of Yan Yi and others is closely related to himself. If he cannot rescue them safely, even if he seizes the spiritual plant cultivation base of the Great Elder, he will not be able to return to Yanlin City to report to the Yanlin Demon King.

His spiritual sense spread out quickly like a large net, capturing every fluctuation of spiritual energy in the magic circle.

Soon, he discovered a subtle flow of spiritual power in the center of the magic circle.

That is exactly the center of the magic circle!

Zhou Yiqiao swung his sword without hesitation, and an even sharper sword energy went straight to the center of the formation.

This sword condensed all his skills. Wherever the sword energy passed, the space was distorted.

"Buzz!"

The core of the magic circle was shattered by Zhou Yiqiao's sword energy, and the entire magic circle collapsed instantly. The spiritual chains that originally bound Yan Yi and others dissipated instantly.

Yan Yi and the others only felt their bodies lighten, they knew that Zhou Yiqiao had succeeded in breaking the formation.

"Mr. Zhou, you are finally back!"

A demon cultivator said excitedly, his eyes filled with gratitude.

Zhou Yiqiao nodded slightly and said in a deep voice.

"Everyone, now is not the time to relax. It won't be too late to celebrate after we kill these guards and completely destroy this place."

Upon hearing this, all the monsters perked up.

They were like wild beasts that had been imprisoned for a long time. Once they were freed, they would completely reveal their brutal nature.

The frustration of being suppressed and restricted in the formation turned into endless anger and strength.

Yan Yi let out a long roar towards the sky, his body flashed, and he turned into a blazing storm, rushing into the guards.

His fists and feet were blazing with fire, and each blow was as heavy as a thousand pounds, sending the enemies flying in all directions.

The other demon cultivators were not to be outdone and showed their true strength one after another.

Some transformed themselves into giant beasts, others summoned strange visions, and amidst the earth-shaking chaos, they slaughtered the guards in the camp one after another.

After all living things were destroyed, what followed was a feast of plunder.

All the spiritual fields in the base were razed and destroyed, precious elixirs were uprooted, and even the warehouses storing low-level herbs were looted.

Zhou Yiqiao did not join in the destruction. He flew high in the sky, patrolling the surroundings vigilantly to prevent any further accidents from happening.

Fortunately, he was too cautious this time and there were no signs of other ambushes or reinforcements around.

As the last trace of resistance was quelled, all that remained in the camp were the busy figures of the demon tribe and the devastated scene.

Yan Yi was covered in sweat, but his eyes were flashing with satisfaction and excitement. He walked to Zhou Yiqiao and bowed deeply.

"Mr. Zhou, Yan Yi will remember your kindness today."

"You not only saved all of our lives, but also enabled us to complete this almost impossible mission."

Zhou Yiqiao smiled bitterly when he heard this, and naturally did not dare to accept the gift.

"Your Highness, I am so embarrassed."

"If my plan hadn't gone awry, you wouldn't have fallen into such danger, Your Highness. What I'm doing now is just to make up for my mistake and do my best."

However, Yan Yi didn't think so.

"Mr. Zhou, please don't blame yourself so much. On the battlefield, the situation is unpredictable. Who can predict everything?"

"Since we are willing to follow Mr. Zhou to carry out the mission, we have already prepared for death."

"Besides, I was only imprisoned temporarily. I was lucky to be rescued by Mr. Zhou in the end."

"My demon race doesn't have as many twists and turns as humans. Since we have completely submitted to Mr. Zhou in the valley, we won't have any other thoughts."
