Although the four great sect masters of fire, water, wood, and thunder were astonished at how Lin Susu and the others managed to escape from the Four Elements Grand Formation set up by them, they did not waste any time asking questions. Instead, they directly activated the spiritual power in their bodies and launched an attack!
After all, if those guys really relied on their own strength to break through the Four Elements Grand Formation, then their strength was definitely not to be underestimated.
It was possible that their intelligence was much higher than before.
And at that moment, because they had set up the Spirit-Absorbing Spell Formation, their spiritual power had severely depleted.
Plus, as they had sacrificed themselves to possess the descendants of the sect, their bodies were unable to recover spiritual power on their own at that moment.
Therefore, under such a situation, if they gave those guys time when their spiritual power recovered to its peak state, there was a very high possibility that they would be defeated.
Just like what was happening at the current stage, they did not notice their aura at all and had even allowed them to get close to them!
If they were not quick-witted, they would have been ambushed by now!
This really scared them.
After all, even if they were at the core formation realm, they would not be invincible if they did not have spiritual power.
It was like an aircraft carrier without fuel. It would just be a pile of scrap metal. Its attack power might not even be as high as a cruiser.
Therefore, they had to end the battle quickly!
This was the thought of the four sect masters at that moment.
Lin Susu and the others on the opposite side were flustered. They did not have time to think about what had happened!
They were clearly just meditating in the Four Elements Grand Formation to recover their cultivation. How could they suddenly be reflected by the formation and fall in front of the four unfamiliar old fellows?
Moreover, the auras of these four old fellows were so familiar.
However, even though they were familiar, the core formation realm cultivation in their bodies was truly frightening.
An enemy of this realm was not something that their current spiritual pedestal realm cultivation could withstand.
‘Of course, let us not talk about resisting first.’
‘Why did the four fellows have such familiar auras?’
‘But I don’t recognize these fellows?’
‘Who are you guys?’
‘Appearing out of nowhere, launching an attack out of nowhere!’
‘And looking at your eyes, it’s as if we’re the enemies who killed your father?’
‘But we don’t know each other at all!’
‘Also, wasn’t the Four Elements Grand Formation located in the Dragon Scale Stream?’
‘Why would it suddenly appear in the Heavenly Narcissus Lake?’
‘Also, what’s with that Green Dragon hovering in mid-air?’
‘Was he the legendary Green Dragon Sword Spirit of the Green Dragon sect?’
‘Did he really release it?’
‘By these four old fellows?’
‘What were they trying to do?’
‘What on earth was going on?’
‘And where did Victor and Ye Lingxuan go?’
‘Can someone please explain to me?’
Lin Susu and the others instantly had a hundred thousand ‘whys’ flashing through their minds.
They felt that everything they had experienced since entering the Mystic Realm was like a dream.
They had been ambushed and injured.
Although they had been released, they were in a daze and had met the hostility of four old men with unkind eyes.
‘What did we do wrong?’
‘Why are they targeting us like this?’
Lin Susu and the others thought in a daze and miserable manner.
However, they could only grit their teeth and swallow their emotions.
This was because the four old fellows in black robes had already attacked them!
A spirit of flames burst forth whilst a spirit of water waves surged forth.
A spirit of thunder and lightning wrapped around the Thunder Sect Master’s body.
A spirit of earth and wood that was densely covered in wood and stone was released!
After seeing the familiar spiritual fluctuation, Lin Susu, Zhou Xuan, Ye Manman, and Ye Huanhuan all had the same thought.
‘Could it be that these old guys are the four sons of the Central Plains?’
‘That’s not right!’
‘They should be less than 20 years old.’
‘How did they suddenly become so old?’
‘Moreover, the four sons of the Central Plains were only at the foundation establishment realm, and the auras of these four old guys were definitely at the core formation realm!’
‘What on earth happened?’
‘We were only locked up for ten hours, why did it feel like several centuries had passed outside?’
Lin Susu and the others had countless doubts in their hearts.
However, when they saw the four sect leaders of the Central Plains charging towards them, they had no choice but to accept the challenge in a panic!
They had to suppress the doubts in their hearts for the time being.
Thus, for a moment, the seven spiritual powers of the White Tiger, Black Tortoise, Phoenix, water, wood, thunder, and fire all gathered together in mid-air!
As Victor had turned off the attacking mode of the spell formation while he was slowly moving it towards the Heavenly Narcissus Lake, Lin Susu and the others were able to recover quite a bit of their spiritual powers.
Moreover, the strength of the four sect masters of fire, water, wood, and thunder was greatly weakened at that moment.
Therefore, for a moment, the two waves of opponents at the spiritual pedestal realm and the core formation realm were evenly matched.
Lin Susu and the others were barely able to fight back and forth with their opponents.
After watching the scene, Ye Lingxuan, who was beside Victor, could not help but feel a strong desire to fight. She also wanted to join the battle and fight side by side with them.
However, Victor rejected her idea.
“Currently, the seven of them have just exchanged blows. The four sect masters of the Central Plains have yet to figure out the true strength of the other party, so they have not used all of their strength to fight. They’re just testing the waters.”
“After they’ve exchanged dozens of blows with each other, the four sect masters of the Central Plains will realize that Lin Susu and the others are really only at the spiritual pedestal realm. If they use all of their strength, Lin Susu and the others will definitely not be able to withstand it.”
“The gap of a large cultivation state is not so easy to offset.”
“At this moment, we should cherish the precious time that Lin Susu and the others have bought for us and quickly carry out our plan!”
Victor analyzed calmly.
Ye Lingxuan nodded when she heard what he said.
Victor was right.
The gap of a cultivation state would not be so easy to offset.
However, why did she feel so awkward when she heard him say, “The precious time that Lin Susu and the others bought for us?”
‘How was this something that they fought for?’
‘It was clearly Victor who framed them!’
Ye Lingxuan thought to herself.
Nevertheless, even though she thought so, she felt an indescribable joy in her heart!
‘Hmph!’
‘I let you b*stards gang up on us!’
‘Serves you right!’
Ye Lingxuan thought proudly.
She did not know when, but she had also been corrupted by the wilting Victor. She could not help but feel that ‘tricking people’ was a wonderful thing.
“Lingxuan, according to our previous plan, after I undo this Spirit-Absorbing Spell Formation, you must quickly dive to the bottom of the Heavenly Narcissus Lake and look for the Nine Revolutions Golden Lotus that I mentioned.”
“That Lotus is the key item that we need to turn the tables.”
“We must find it.”
“And I will take the opportunity to set up a counter-killing formation and wait for the four sect masters of the Central Plains to return.”
“Let’s split up and act accordingly!”
Victor repeated the plan in a low voice.
Ye Lingxuan nodded her head vigorously.
She did not know when, but she had begun to follow Victor’s lead.
However, she did not feel a trace of displeasure in her heart, as if it was a matter of course.
“Let the plan begin!”
Victor made a hand gesture in a low voice. He then took the lead to charge towards the Spirit-Absorbing Spell Formation that was gathered above the Heavenly Narcissus Lake!
