The head of the faceless sculpture was blown off, sending smoke and dust everywhere.
When everyone saw this, everyone was dumbfounded.
Especially the people of Yuqiu Sect.
You know, on the first day they entered the sect, they were told that this sculpture has a long history, is sacred and inviolable, and must not be touched.
Therefore, they have always respected it and did not even dare to approach it easily.
However, such an important sculpture was blown up today!
It feels like a certain belief has collapsed.
A red light diffused from the smoke and dust, which looked a bit strange.
"Oops!"
Seeing this, Yu Wuji's expression suddenly changed, he let out a low voice, and his expression was particularly cold and solemn.
The other elders also felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy, and their whole bodies were tense.
Ye Wen didn't seem to expect that his action would lead to such an outcome, and he was stunned for a moment.
As the master of the Star Reaching Pavilion, he naturally knows the importance of sculpture.
There is also an identical sculpture in the square of their Star Reaching Pavilion.
It is said that this sculpture is not just a simple decoration, it is also a deterrent, suppressing the undead underground!
Of course, no one knows whether the legend is true or not. Anyway, it has been passed down from generation to generation, and this is true for all three major sects.
Before everyone had time to guess what the red light was, there was a sudden tremor under their feet, and many people were knocked to the ground.
"Is there an earthquake?"
The disciples of the Yuqiu Sect were very confused. The Yuqiu Sect had always had outstanding people and had never had an earthquake!
Wow~
After the sculpture's head was broken, the whole body began to crack, and pieces of gravel continued to fall down.
In the square of Yuqiuzong, a crack spreads from north to south!
Passing through the foot of which sculpture, the sculpture is crumbling, as if as long as the crack is wide enough, it will immediately fall into the abyss of eternal destruction!
The cracks grew longer and wider, and soon the entire Yuqiu Sect, which faced north and south, was divided into two by the cracks!
There was black mist coming out of the cracks. It was not obvious at first, just like wisps of black smoke.
Others did not notice, but Ye Qingran's expression changed.
This black mist is almost exactly the same as what she encountered in Beimingzhou!
Deadly!
An idea appeared in Ye Qingran's mind.
“Is it possible that this sculpture suppresses the energy of death?”
Ye Qingran thought to himself, but felt that it was not that simple.
"ah!"
People who were closer to the crack were entangled in the black mist and felt nothing at first, but soon started to wail in pain.
The air of death was seen wandering around their bodies, making their skin appear strands of black and giving them a sense of fragmentation, which looked particularly terrifying.
"Quick, stay away from the black mist!"
"Xuanli body protection!"
Someone shouted loudly, and many people continued to retreat while activating their mysterious energy to protect their bodies.
Such a sudden change touched everyone's heart.
"It seems that the legend is true!"
"This sculpture is really used to suppress evil spirits!"
.......
Only then did everyone realize that the legend that had existed for thousands of years was not false!
"It's all Ye Wen's fault. If it weren't for him, the sculpture wouldn't be broken!"
Some people began to complain and ask questions at night.
If Ye Wen hadn't insisted on taking action, the sculpture would not have been broken!
"It's none of my business! It's obviously Ye Qingran!"
Ye Wen put all the blame on Ye Qingran.
Ye Qingran glanced at him coldly and did not refute, but instead turned his gaze to the red light in the smoke.
Because the sculpture is still collapsing, smoke and dust are everywhere, and the sculpture is on a crack, no one dares to approach it.
"What's in that red light?"
Ye Qingran squinted his eyes and did not dare to get close to find out what was going on.
More and more black mist came out of the crack, centered on the crack, and spread to all directions.
Some people were entangled in the black mist, lying on the ground rolling in pain, wailing in pain from their mouths, which was terrifying to watch.
Everyone was so frightened that they swallowed their saliva and kept retreating back, further and further away. Going forward, they reached the cliff of the abyss.
"We can't retreat anymore! We have to find a way to deal with this black mist!"
As he finished speaking, the ground beneath his feet suddenly trembled violently, and a thick black light shot out from the ground and shot straight into the sky. The next moment, black mist spewed out from the sky, like a volcano erupting.
The black mist came from behind everyone and formed a circle, surrounding everyone from the inside to the outside, making them unable to retreat!
"It's over! There's no place to retreat now!"
The black mist not only surrounded Yuqiuzong, but also continued to emerge from the cracks and continued to disperse in all directions.
At the foot of the mountain of Yuqiu Sect, there is a city. Farther away, there are countless cities, large and small. If the black mist is allowed to spread, everyone will be doomed, and even the entire floating world will be devastated!
"What exactly is this black mist?"
"It's the energy of death! You must not touch them directly, otherwise the power of life will be exhausted and you will die!"
The elders who knew the truth reminded loudly.
Deadly?!
The expressions of everyone present changed dramatically.
Of course they knew about the existence of death energy, but before today, they had only heard about it and had never seen death energy.
You must know that death energy is the biggest enemy of life. Once it is contaminated, the power of life will be consumed, and in serious cases, you may even die!
"Ye Wen and Liu Jin have concealed the chaos in the floating world. Our three major sects should temporarily put aside their past grudges and fight this crisis together!"
Yu Wuji said in a deep voice.
Ye Wen and Liu Jin thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay!"
Of course, the three major sects are not just guarding a sculpture. They also inherited a formation that can be used if there is a problem with the sculpture.
The sect leaders of the three major sects stood in different positions and began to activate the formation in the shape of an equilateral triangle.
As they continued to form seals, a golden formation rose under their feet.
The golden formations are radiant, and the mysterious lines exude an ancient and mysterious atmosphere. While people are fascinated by it, they can't help but respect it.
"rise!"
The three of them spoke at the same time, and the array pattern rose from the ground, then transformed into a huge barrier.
The golden barrier has a wide range and contains the crack. Black mist pours out from the crack and hits the golden barrier, causing ripples, but it cannot get out.
"Everyone, leave the barrier quickly!"
Hearing this, the people in the barrier hurriedly ran towards the outside of the barrier. Although there was still residual black mist outside, it did not pose much of a threat.
Seeing that the black mist could not come out of the barrier, the people outside breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Great! We are finally safe!"
However, this joy of surviving the disaster did not last long, because they discovered that black mist was still continuously overflowing from the cracks.
The golden barrier was filled with black mist, and the concentration was frighteningly high. The golden light of the barrier gradually dimmed, and it seemed that it could not last long!
The joy and excitement on everyone's faces disappeared little by little, and their hearts were high, praying silently in their hearts.
Ye Qingran had already guessed that this formation would not last long when he saw the golden light beginning to weaken.
"No, we have to think of other ways!"
Ye Qingran frowned and suddenly thought of the Chaos Green Lotus Seed obtained from the ruins of the ancient battlefield!
She took out the green lotus seeds and put them in her hands.
But the Chaos Green Lotus Seed consumed too much life force at that time and is currently in a deep sleep, let alone sprouting?
Ye Qingran put his fingers together and held the green lotus seeds in his hand, "How can I make the green lotus seeds grow?"
