The skinny old man took action continuously, and in a moment, he destroyed the fortifications carefully constructed by Yan Jie to pieces.

The Jindan monk was really too powerful. Yan Jie relied on the flight restrictions and spiritual bans set up by the formation, which did not pose any threat to him at all.

Even the soldiers hiding in the tunnel are hard to escape from the attack of the thin old man.

"Yan Jie, go quickly! The matter in Linshan City has nothing to do with you, it is enough for me to stay here..." Qian Jue looked at the black fog rolling in the distance, but his heart gradually calmed down. She knew that the moment the black fog appeared, the war was over.

Yan Jie's arrangement is indescribable, and even the foundation-building monk cannot escape his calculations, but human power is ultimately limitless.

No matter how exquisite the calculation is, it will be useless in the face of absolute strength.

In Qian Jue's view, the cultivation level of the Golden Pill stage is absolutely powerful.

Liu Ruyan, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but persuade: "It's still time to withdraw now...Young master, make a decision quickly! You can't delay any more... The soldiers on the front line are using their lives to buy time!"

Yan Jie still looked at the black fog in the distance firmly and asked gradually: "If we retreat now, how can we be worthy of the soldiers who died in blood? How can we be worthy of the people in Linshan City?"

Liu Ruyan was speechless.

In fact, as long as she is willing, she can make up countless reasons to support her leaving. But facing Yan Jie's eyes, she couldn't say a word.

It was not until this moment that Liu Ruyan truly believed that Yan Jie’s oath of “survival and perishing with Linshan City” was serious.

He really could die for a group of irrelevant people, as Zhang Xian said!

She looked at Yan Jie, and a string in her heart was inexplicably touched.

This is a foolish Taoist priest, but it is so stupid that it makes people feel distressed.

Liu Ruyan didn't know Yan Jie's ideal, but she was moved by Yan Jie's decision.

She said with ease, "The young master made this decision and sacrificed his life with me. I will not hide it from you. When I became the head of the Liu family, I was ready to sacrifice my life. Now that I can live and die with Linshan City, it will be even more glorious..."

When Qian Jue saw that Liu Ruyan had chosen to stay, he felt uncomfortable and said unwillingly: "Isn't it just death? You are not afraid of being a stinky Taoist priest, what is this princess afraid of?"

"Actually, you don't have to be nervous. Although it's time to decide the outcome of this battle, it's not certain who wins and who loses..." Yan Jie held the new order and entered his magic power into it, activated the defensive formation of Linshan City.

In an instant, the entire city was shrouded in a light green curtain. The green light shone on the three people on the city tower, emitting moving light under the rising sun.

As the light curtain rose, the thin old man hiding in the black fog also felt instantly. He gave up his attack on the outer positions and turned to look at the highest point on the city - Wangting.

Although the Black Owl knew that the person behind the defense of Linshan City was just a Qi-refining monk, when he saw it with his own eyes, he still couldn't control the rage in his heart.

Over the years, he has been powerful in the cultivation world, and everyone knows the name of the Black Owl. Even if he is a cultivator in the Golden Pill stage, he has to retreat in front of him.

But now, a small Qi-refining cultivator dared to openly challenge him, and even blocked him for three days. Not only did he not make any progress, but even his disciples were sacrificed!

What a humiliation!

The moment Yan Jie was locked in, the thin old man was furious.

He let go of the soldiers who were still on the position, drove the black fog and headed straight for the city tower.

It took nearly two hours to go from the front line to the city tower, but it was only a blink of an eye when the black owl escaped.

The escape light shrank above the city tower, and Yan Jie finally saw the figure of this Jindan monk with his own eyes.

This is a skinny old man, wearing a wide black robe, which looks nothing in line with his thin body.

The old man's facial features were a little distorted in anger, and his scarlet eyes were particularly scary, which made Qian Jue and Liu Ruyan unable to help but their scalp numb.

"Hehehehehehehehe...boy, there is this

If you are with two beautiful ladies, you should be at ease even if you die!"

The thin old man laughed loudly. When he looked at Qian Jue and Liu Ruyan, he couldn't help but show a hint of greed.

In his eyes, this small Linshan City was already a dead city, and the lives of everyone in the city were only in his thoughts.

Yan Jie looked at the skinny old man calmly. Seeing that he showed his figure and stayed outside the green light curtain out of thin air, he asked, "I guess the corpse ghost is also your accomplice, right?"

"Do you know the corpse ghoul?" The skinny old man was stunned when he heard this. The corpse ghoul had just died. The kid mentioned it casually, probably for some reason.

Yan Jie's expression became calmer and he continued, "About a month ago, I caught an old woman in the Foundation Establishment Stage alive. I guess you know her too?"

"It turns out that the skeleton woman is broken into your kid's hands! OK, okay! She's really searching for something without any effort, and she's saved me some soul searching skills!"

The skinny old man's eyes condensed, and a red light about a foot long burst out of his eyes, with fierce flames surging.

Yan Jie relied on the cover of the formation and did not take the thin old man seriously at all. He turned to Liu Ruyan and Qian Jue and said, "Don't be afraid. Although this person is a Jindan monk, he cannot break my protective magic circle..."

The two women looked at Yan Jie half-believingly, wondering what he was selling in the gourd. That was a Jindan monk. He wanted to stop him with this city protection formation alone? How could this be possible?

But Yan Jie had no intention of explaining at all. He just looked at the old man in gray robe in front of him, as if he didn't take the old man seriously at all.

"Boy, dare you despise me?" Black Owl could no longer hold back. It was a great shame to be underestimated by a small Qi-refining monk. He wanted to break the kid's body immediately and let him taste the taste of soul refining!

He smiled gloomyly, and his hands lit up black light at the same time.

Immediately afterwards, his hands were turned around, and two balls of black light combined together, condensed into a ghost claw about a meter long, and grabbed it straight towards the city tower.

The ghost claw is amazing, but it is very realistic, and can even see the texture of the palm. The ghost claw "hissed" on the surface, and there is a faint sound of ghost crying in the black air.

Seeing this, Qian and Liu were still scared even though they had the consciousness of dying.

Qian Jue suddenly said, "Yan, Yan Jie, if you can't hold on, remember to give me a happy one! I, I don't want to fall into the hands of this demon!"

Liu Ruyan quietly grabbed Yan Jie's arm. Although she didn't say anything, she also realized that she would die.

With a "boom", the light curtain contracted sharply under the attack of the ghost claws. The point hit by the ghost claws flashed through various colors in a hurry, and it looked like a thread stretched to the limit, which could be broken at any time.
