“I hope that you will still have the courage to say such words when you see it.”

The person who had spoken earlier immediately stopped speaking when he saw the situation. How could the elders of these aristocratic families not think of the things that he could think of? If they could completely seal it, why would they wait until now.

The deeper they went, the more the black qi leaked out. That gloomy and cold feeling was even more pervasive. It was as if it wanted to drill into every pore of their bodies. The cultivation level of everyone present was not low. Even so, they felt a chill all over their bodies. They had no choice but to circulate the spiritual power around their bodies to resist, but they still could still feel a slight chill.

Stepping into this cave was like stepping into another world. There was no light, only darkness. The endless road ahead seemed to have come to the depths of the underground. It was unknown whether it was because they were worried about the safety of the City Lord or was it the words that the grand elders had just said.

Everyone was silent all the way. The atmosphere was tense and gloomy. It was strange to say that they could not control any flying immortal spiritual artifacts here, not even flying on swords. Finally, someone could not help but speak up.

“How much longer do we have to walk? Could it be that we have fallen into some kind of maze and can’t get out?”

“It should be soon.”

Looking around, the scene here was exactly the same. The immutable walls, the dim environment, and the night-luminescent pearls embedded in the walls which were emitting a faint light. The visibility was also very low. One could barely see the faces of the people around them.

Looking from afar, the entire path was filled with such small light spots. The pearls that were originally used as lighting were more like ghost flames floating in the air. After that, they disappeared into the darkness. The worse the environment, the more it affected people’s minds.

It was as if there was some kind of giant beast hibernating in the darkness, eyeing them like a tiger watching its prey. Even they felt a little uneasy in their hearts and hoped to quickly walk out of this damned place. They quickened their steps,

Soon, a faint light came from ahead. They quickened their steps, and what they saw was Yan Hua and the others laying on the ground with ashen faces. The people present quickly recognized their identities.

“They’re from the Alchemist Association.”

They had also been affected by the previous battle between Lin Bai and the others. Every one of them had black aura infested in their bodies. Their bodies were also surrounded by an ominous aura. Otherwise, they would have sent people out to seek help long ago.

Some of them who had low cultivation strength were severely injured and had already died on the spot. Only Yan Hua’s cultivation was not bad, so he had managed to hold on until now.

Everyone hurriedly went over to check his breath. “He’s still breathing.”

A few grand supreme elders worked together to send spirit energy to him. Only then did Yan Hua open his eyes with difficulty, and he said breathlessly, “Quick, go and save the City Lord.” After saying this, he fainted again.

“His injuries are too serious. He has been invaded by evil energy again. We must bring him back and treat him properly.”

They sent one person to send Yan Hua and a few others who were still alive out while the others continued to move forward.

At this moment, Lin Bai’s side still did not know that the tiger’s roar just now was emitted by the White Tiger. He also did not know that the commotion here had already affected the outside world. Many powerful factions in the capital had sent people to check on the situation.

He rested for a moment before recovering some energy. He went to check on the City Lord’s situation. Only then did he realize that the City Lord’s situation was even worse than he had imagined. The black qi had almost invaded his internal organs, and all of his meridians had been destroyed. Waves of cold aura surged.

He estimated that he would need to refine a grade-10 medicinal pill to save him. Moreover, even if he was saved, he would most likely be a cripple.

After all, the City Lord was poisoned too heavily, and he was the first to be infected by the black gas. All the spiritual power in his body had turned into nourishment for the black gas. It almost merged into one with the black gas.

Just as Lin Bai was observing, he felt an extremely cold feeling coming from his fingertips. He quickly let go, but he did not notice that the City Lord, who had been unconscious, suddenly opened his eyes.

His blood-red pupils were interwoven with a faint black fog, making him look particularly cold and bloodthirsty. It was as if he just had an empty human appearance, but his inner body was occupied by evil creatures. Or perhaps it could be said that he was just a monster wearing a layer of human skin.

“I didn’t expect there to be a fish that escaped the net.”

Lin Bai narrowed his eyes. Although the main body of that thing had tried to break the seal and escape, it had still been beaten back by him in the end. However, he did not expect the City Lord to be a small clone.

It was likely that it had already become one with the City Lord. When the spatial rift had closed, that was why the clone had not been taken back. Perhaps Ren Zeyuan’s might be in such a situation too.

The corner of the City Lord’s mouth curved downwards, forming an exaggerated and strange smile. It was as if the entire corner of his mouth was about to be torn apart, “A mere mortal body. Do you really think you can hurt me? You will pay a painful price for what you have done.”

Lin Bai glanced at him from the corner of his eyes and did not take it to heart at all. “If your real body said that, I might still be a little afraid. Let’s talk about it when you break the seal.”

Lin Bai’s words had clearly hit the mayor’s sore spot. If there was not enough spiritual energy or medicine to maintain it, this wisp of soul would not exist for long.

“I will send you on your way right now so you can properly reunite with your sealed main body!”

In order to prevent further delay, Lin Bai gathered a burst of divine light in his palm and was about to strike the City Lord’s head. However, just as he was about to speak, he heard a loud shout from behind him, “Stop!”

A flying sword flew through the air with an overwhelming aura. If Lin Bai had not dodged in time, there would have been a bloody hole in his chest. He steadied himself and turned his head around. The people who had come were none other than the major aristocratic families and sects of the capital.

The grand elders glared at him. “How dare you! What do you want to do to the City Lord? !”

Without waiting for Lin Bai to respond, the City Lord’s feeble voice rang out.. “Elders, quick, save me.”
