Chapter 99 - 99 98 Mysterious Black Robed Man

99: Chapter 98: Mysterious Black Robed Man 99: Chapter 98: Mysterious Black Robed Man The battle raging outside was unknown to Lin Xuan and the others, who were attacking the hard boulder with all their might.

Bang!

Boom!

Under the combined eighth strike of the group, the hard boulder was finally blasted open.

The entire hall trembled continuously as the boulder, dozens of feet tall, shattered, revealing a hole over one person tall.

As the dust cleared, a thick green Stone Gate appeared before everyone.

“Find a way to contact the people inside,” Hu Man said while trying to find the mechanism’s handle and speaking to the others.

Instantly, some began searching, others shouted loudly, and some pounded on the Stone Gate.

Lin Xuan stood to the side, his gaze flickering.

Inside the Stone Gate, three figures felt the change at the Stone Gate and huddled together anxiously.

“Is the Demon Clan finally going to break in?” The person at the front was a middle-aged man with a pale, beardless face resembling a scholar.

“What do we do, just wait to die?” the people at his sides asked.

“We must not let the treasures of Hundred Herbs Hall fall into the hands of the Demon Clan!” The middle-aged man unconsciously touched the black ring on his finger.

Just as the three were preparing to fight to the death, suddenly a voice entered their ears.

“I am a disciple of Xuantian Sect, one of the members here for the rescue.

We are outside the Stone Gate, hoping you can open it quickly.”

The three of them looked greatly alarmed, “Impossible, this gate not only blocks attacks, but also all sounds and scents, how could he transmit his voice inside!”

Yet the middle-aged man’s eyes sparkled as he said in a deep tone, “This must be soul transmission, but such a technique is extremely profound, and yet it’s being used by a youth…”

“Sun Shengshou, should we trust him?” the other two asked.

Outside the Stone Gate, sweat flowed down Lin Xuan’s forehead.

This soul transmission was taught to him by the Lord of Wine, but it was somewhat taxing for his first use.

Before he could catch his breath, a sudden change occurred.

The ground of the entire hall trembled slightly, as if an earthquake was about to occur.

“What’s happening?” everyone’s faces changed drastically.

Internally, the Lord of Wine said in a deep voice, “The beast horde is coming.

You’d better prepare for a breakout!”

After hearing this, Lin Xuan quickly informed everyone, “It’s a beast horde, prepare for a breakout.”

At the same time, he used soul transmission to inform the three inside about the situation outside.

The middle-aged man forcefully pulled the mechanism handle, “Rather than waiting to die here, let’s trust him!”

Click, clack, clack!

Just as everyone prepared to flee, the green Stone Gate moved.

The Stone Gate slowly rose, emitting a dull noise, and the two groups of people finally saw each other.

“That’s great, it really is the rescue team!” the two youths behind the middle-aged man cheered.

“I am Sun Wenyan, thank you, noble youths, for the rescue,” the middle-aged man said, clasping his fist and bowing.

“No time left, hurry!

The Demon Beast horde will be here any moment!” Lin Xuan said in a stern voice.

“Martial artists at the Eighth Rank of Congealing Veins, take out your shields to protect these three!

Others, stand by on both sides to assist, and Sister Hu Man along with other martial artists at the Ninth Rank of Congealing Veins, lead the breakout.”

Lin Xuan’s strategy was simple, the same as they had used to pass through the Earth Armor Beast horde: the weaker ones were all set to defend while the strong ones were responsible for clearing the way.

Although Lin Xuan gave out orders first, Feng Bufan and others had no objections, Hu Man also nodded in agreement, but Fan Chong snorted coldly, obviously disgruntled.

However, everyone acted quickly, so he held back any outbursts.

Zhang Hao and the other three protected Sun Wenyan and the two with their shields at the very interior, while the remaining five prepared to strike in all directions, with two sect disciples standing at the forefront of the team.

The nine sect disciples quickly divided up their tasks, ready for the assault.

Lin Xuan looked at the formation and frowned, “Sister Hu Man, it’s best if you two top Ninth-level Mystical Realm martial artists don’t act together.”

Fan Chong stood next to Hu Man, and upon hearing this, he became furious, “Kid, stop talking nonsense, do you want to die?”

“Brother Lin, what do you mean?” Hu Man also didn’t understand.

“The two with the highest combat power can’t attack at the same time, otherwise we can’t break through.

Best to balance it out!”

“I understand,” said Hu Man.

“Fan Chong, you swap with Feng Bufan first.”

Fan Chong sneered, “What can a little kid at the Eighth Rank of Congealing Veins understand!”

“I believe in Brother Lin!” Feng Bufan said sternly.

With a grim face, Fan Chong swapped places with Feng Bufan, standing to the left side of the team, with a young man named Huang Wei on the right, and Lin Xuan at the very back.

“The whole team be ready to switch at any moment.

Prepare yourselves, now let’s go!” Lin Xuan shouted.

“Everyone, trust in Brother Lin!” Feng Bufan reiterated.

Whoosh!

The group set out, like a sharp sword flying forth.

Outside the loft, apart from ordinary Demon Beasts, there were four mysterious robed figures standing atop the beasts, enigmatic and ominous.

“Hehe, once they come out, we’ll catch them all in one net!” chuckled one of the Black Robed Men, his voice sounding very young.

Swoosh, swoosh!

A dazzling orb of light rushed out and swiftly plunged into the horde of Demon Beasts, colliding relentlessly.

“Target sighted, attack!” One of the Black Robed Men patted the Red Flame Wolf beneath him, which then howled towards the heavens.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Hundreds of Demon Beasts stirred, like a ferocious flood.

Meanwhile, Lin Xuan and his group, fighting for their lives, exerted their full strength in a relentless slaughter.

“Hehe, interesting.

Let me have a try at them!” sneered one of the Black Robed Men.

“You Shisan, make it quick!” another Black Robed Man ordered.

“Don’t worry, just a few little sect disciples!” You Shisan soared out like a large bird.

Boom!

A black Palm Shadow struck towards Lin Xuan and the others.

“Everyone move to the right!” Lin Xuan, sensing the presence of the Black Robed Man through his Soul Power, bellowed loudly.

“To the right?

Do you want to die?” Fan Chong raged, disregarding Lin Xuan completely.

But in the next moment, the fierce palm winds swept across.

Bang!

Caught off guard and hastily defending, Fan Chong was hit hard, his Qi-Blood churning and his body aching all over.

“What!” The others were shocked; they looked at Lin Xuan gratefully.

If it weren’t for Lin Xuan, they all would have been attacked.

Fan Chong, infuriated beyond words for ignoring Lin Xuan’s warning and suffering greatly for it, was almost exploding with anger.

“There are people, why are there people!” Feng Bufan roared, “Who has colluded with the Demon Clan!”

“I don’t know, but our situation is very precarious because there’s more than one Black Robed Man!” Lin Xuan’s gaze shifted to the distance.

“Huh?” The figures seated on the Demon Beasts were surprised, “Someone actually noticed us, how interesting.”

“I shall take action too, let’s see what the martial artists of Xia Country are made of!” This Black Robed Man flew forth.

“You Shier has gone as well…” The remaining two Black Robed Men sat calmly, continuously watching.

Boom, boom, boom!

Ever since the Black Robed Man attacked, Fan Chong had been relentlessly targeted.

That Black Robed Man kept striking at Fan Chong, infuriating him to the point of thunderous rage.

The dark Palm Shadows, fierce in their attack on Fan Chong, were shrouded in a sinister and evil power.

Struggling to maintain formation and fighting the Black Robed Man, Fan Chong could not unleash his full strength, feeling extremely frustrated, especially given Lin Xuan’s scornful glance.

He angrily slashed out with his sword and then quickly followed the team, afraid of falling behind.

At that moment, a weird voice sounded again: “Haha, You Shisan, I’m coming!”

“Not good, another Black Robed Man is coming!” Fan Chong’s face turned pale.
