Chapter 214: Play Along With The Plan
Unfortunately, it was too late. Lin Bai had already fed him the medicine. At that moment, Ren Zeyuan suddenly made a move. Other than Lin Bai, the others were all pushed back by the black qi and flew more than ten meters away. They fell to the ground and spat out a large mouthful of blood.
“Vice City Lord…”
Before they could react, Ren Zeyuan suddenly made a move.
Lin Bai had dodged Ren Zeyuan’s sudden attack. It seemed that he was on guard. Seeing that he didn’t fall for his attack, Ren Zeyuan couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows. “It seems that you’ve been suspecting me for a long time.”
It turned out that He Qingyuan had been controlled by Ren Zeyuan all along. However, when Lin Bai took out the medicinal pill, he suddenly regained consciousness and broke free from his shackles. It was a pity that it was too late.
They had actually succeeded in refining the pill. They had never thought that they would end up falling into Ren Zeyuan’s trap in the end. They were both angry and anxious. A gush of scarlet sweetness filled their throats as they once again broke through Ren Zeyuan’s imprisonment.
“All of you hurry up and leave. You’re not a match for this monster at all. It has long corroded the Vice City Lord’s mind and occupied his physical body.”
It did not matter even if Ren Zeyuan saw that his true face had been exposed. It was just that there was some surprise and amazement on his face.
“I didn’t expect this pill to have such an effect. It can even break free from my control spell. If I really let you guys follow the original plan, there’s a high chance that you’ll succeed.”
The heavily injured people on the ground immediately revealed an extremely terrified expression. However, they couldn’t leave even if they wanted to.
Ren Zeyuan waved out a few streaks of black air. A majestic pressure came like a mountain and a sea. It was also like some ancient giant beast had suddenly woken up. In an instant, resentful ghosts cried and wailed. The baleful and evil aura within him were simply terrifying.
Lin Bai could see that Ren Zeyuan seemed to have some similarities with the monster he had encountered earlier underground, but his power was even stronger. He suddenly leaped to the side as if his body was like the wind between heaven and earth. He didn’t leave any traces.
However, the wall next to him suffered. The black gas landed on it and instantly corroded a large area. Moreover, the black traces were like moldy spots that could not be wiped away. They were rapidly spreading in all directions. Even the temperature in the air had dropped. It became extremely cold and gloomy.
One could imagine that if this attack landed on Lin Bai’s body, he would be either dead or crippled.
Ren Zeyuan revealed a cold smile. “Your skills are pretty good.”
At this moment, his appearance was still the same as before. However, upon closer inspection, his facial features seemed to have bulged. It was as if he had been inflated by blisters. There seemed to be something densely packed surging within.
Even his pupils had turned completely white. There was no life in his gaze or expression. It was as if everything was dead, causing one’s heart to tremble.
More and more black gas gushed out from his body endlessly. It was as if he was the incarnation of the abyss at this moment. When he descended into the mortal world, all disasters and death would follow.
Lin Bai did not dare to lower his guard. Ruo Shui sword was tightly held in his hand. As if it was under an invisible pressure, the blade of the sword trembled slightly and let out a faintly discernible sound.
One had to know that the Ruoshui sword had never been like this before. Now that a great enemy was in front of them, it could not be underestimate it.
Lin Bai did not summon Little Red, Little Black, and the others. After all, Ren Zeyuan definitely did not display his full strength now. He still had a trump card in his hand, so he also planned to leave a backup move.
The air was filled with a murderous aura, indicating that a war was about to break out. Their gazes met in mid-air. Ren Zeyuan’s expression was full of contempt and disdain. “You’re a mantis trying to stop a chariot, overestimating your own strength.”
“Why are you talking so much nonsense?”
Ren Zeyuan was even more furious, and his expression became extremely vicious. “You will pay a painful price for your arrogance and boldness.”
The two seemed to have made an agreement to attack together.
White spiritual energy and the black fog intersected like a huge beast tearing at each other. The fight was so intense that it could not be separated. Lin Bai’s Ruoshui sword drew out a stream of sword qi. It seemed to be a light and gentle, but it was mixed with the power of lightning.
However, the black mist instantly expanded and swallowed it in the blink of an eye.
“I thought you were very capable. This bit of sword qi is not enough to fill the gaps between my teeth. I can swallow as much as I want.”
As soon as he finished his words, countless sword qi followed. It was as if the Ruoshui sword had turned into thousands of swords, interweaving into a dense net. The black mist could not avoid it and was exposed to the sword qi.
As Lin Bai waved his sword, the black fog’s figure became smaller. The originally huge giant’s figure suddenly shrunk, and Ren Zeyuan finally looked at Lin Bai, “Little ant, you still have some ability. The sword in your hand is a pretty good magic weapon.”
However, he still held contempt in his heart. He thought that the only reason why Lin Bai had such great strength was because of the sword in his hand.
The black gas exploded again, like a volcano, forming a huge skull in the air. Wherever the sword light went, it could not affect it at all. Instead, the white spiritual power became dim.
The dark eye sockets stared at the crowd, giving them an indescribable pressure especially when the skull opened and closed its mouth. Cold air came out like a bone-piercing blade.
“None of you will be able to escape this place today.”
Lin Bai was able to dodge it, but the others were not so lucky. They laid on the ground and moaned in pain. The black fog nibbled away at the spiritual energy in their bodies bit by bit, like a glutton that didn’t know when to stop.
The protective sword qi on Lin Bai’s body had dissipated a lot after being swallowed by the black fog. However, the Ruoshui sword was not an ordinary magic tool, so the loss of the sword qi was nothing.
“If I didn’t have any use for you group, I would have sent you all to h.e.l.l long ago, and your souls would never be at peace.”
Lin Bai’s eyes changed slightly, as if he was in a daze. His entire body was wrapped by the black fog, and he could no longer move again..
