Chapter 262 The First Elder Who Suffered

Seeing that there was a chance to open the Mountain Protection Array, anticipation appeared in everyone’s eyes once again. “The Shen family is indeed worthy of being an array family. The First Elder is indeed powerful. He even has a way to open the hundred-year Mountain Protection Array.” The First Elder’s expression did not show much joy. His gaze was solemn, and his forehead was already covered in fine beads of sweat. To outsiders, this seemed like an easy matter. However, no one knew how much pressure he was currently under.

Those fireflies seemed to have entered smoothly, but they had only advanced halfway when they felt a great pressure. It was as if countless mountains and rivers were crushing down on them.

At this moment, he was like a tiny speck of dust. In the face of the great rivers and seas, he did not even have the ability to resist let alone fighting back. Waves after waves of pressure struck his body, like heavenly punishment. However, at this moment, he was suffering and unable to speak. It was as if he had been forbidden from speaking. It was as if he was being punished for his offence.

If he had known that this Mountain Protection Array was so difficult to deal with, he would not have taken the initiative. He had been careless.

The people around him only saw that everything was going smoothly, but no one noticed that the area around the First Elder had sunk a foot deep into the ground. At this moment, his body was still slowly sinking, as if a huge mountain was pressing down on his shoulders.

“Why aren’t there any reactions after those fireflies entered? Has the Mountain Protection Array been resolved now?”

Everyone waited for half a day, but there were no other reactions. Some people tried to use their spiritual power to probe the situation. Although there was still some resistance, it was much less than before.

“I believe that it won’t be long before it can be completely resolved. We just need to wait patiently for a moment.”

Hearing this, the First Elder almost fainted. He only hoped that these people would act quickly and save him from the fire and water. However, his body could not move nor could he speak. He could only use all of his spiritual power to struggle and resist.

His face gradually turned pale. Everyone thought that it was because he had expended a lot of energy to resolve the array. If the Mountain Protection Array was so easy to resolve, then wouldn’t the Alchemist Association’s reputation be in vain.

However, the First Elder’s silence finally made people realize that something was wrong. “I feel that the First Elder’s condition is a little strange.”

Seeing that someone had finally noticed him, the First Elder used all his strength to signal with his eyes. The others took a step forward and held his hand, but they were repelled by an enormous force.

Only then did everyone realize that the First Elder had been affected by something. He could not speak or move.

The Shen family members were extremely anxious and were about to step forward immediately. “Not good! The First Elder is in danger!” However, they were stopped by others.

“Be careful. You must not act rashly, lest you fall into the same trap as the First Elder.” Everyone tried to use their spiritual power to free the First Elder from it. However, no matter what they did, they would be bounced back when they came into contact with the First Elder. It was as if there was an invisible barrier around him that enveloped him completely. Someone guessed, “Could it be that the First Elder is also affected by the mountain-protecting array?”

The Shen family members looked at the scene in front of them. The mutation had started from those fireflies. They nodded and said, “It’s very possible. However, how can we save him?”

Everyone looked at each other and fell into a dilemma for a moment. This was great. The Mountain Protection Array was not broken, but a powerful companion was thrown in instead.

Just as they were thinking about how to solve this problem, a new change occurred on the First Elder’s side. He could vaguely feel an inexplicable attraction that was slowly pulling him in.

The First Elder hurriedly signaled with his eyes. When everyone saw him move, they thought that the First Elder had freed himself from his shackles, but they realized that it was not the case at all.

“It seems like the formation is pulling him in!”

If he went in, they did not know if he would be able to come back unscathed. Everyone quickly used their spiritual power to transform into ropes and tied them around the First Elder’s body. It was like a tug-of-war. Both sides were playing with each other, and they were in a state of anxiety.

At this moment, the First Elder was truly helpless. They did prevent the first elder from falling into the array.

Just as everyone heaved a sigh of relief, a huge suction force suddenly came over, and everyone’s bodies leaned forward together.

“What the hell is going on?”

“I don’t know either. The power inside is absorbing the spiritual energy in my body.”

Everyone was shocked and hurriedly used all kinds of methods to resist. However, the effect was minimal. Other than delaying them from being dragged in, it didn’t have any effect at all. Instead, they felt as if they were sinking deeper and deeper into the array.

However, the First Elder in front was the most miserable. Just when everyone was trying their best but couldn’t get any inspiration, it was too late to break the connection. They couldn’t break free at all.

“What should we do? It’s too late to escape now.”

Just when everyone was in a terrible state, someone suddenly suggested, “Since we can’t break free, we might as well join in. We’ll use our spiritual power together and inject it into it. It can’t be a bottomless pit that can absorb everything, right?” Although everyone had some doubts about this method, from the looks of it, this method was the only one that could work.

“Then let’s give it a try. It’s better than dragging it in without doing anything.”

After saying that, everyone activated their spiritual power together. They didn’t know if it worked or not, but the suction force was really reduced by a lot. Everyone smiled happily.

However, the spiritual power fluctuation outside the array had changed at this moment, as if there was some kind of huge change inside.

“Boom!” A loud sound could be heard, and a powerful thrust swept over. Everyone was caught off guard, and they all fell back together, looking very miserable.

“What’s going on? Is our spiritual power working?”
