In the face of the rapidly changing situation in the square, the most tense thing is not the unfathomable strength of the Thousand Illusion Sect, not the two ghost painting families whose strength has been repeatedly weakened, and it is impossible to be the original scattered sand, but now it is condensed and many other forces.

The most anxious and uneasy person is the Xuanhong Empire, the lord of the Xuanwu Empire. The lord of the country, who wanted to reap the benefits of the fisherman, was extremely anxious at this time, but he didn't dare to say half a word to anyone.

The position he is in is the most embarrassing, the internal strife of the Xuanwu Empire, the forces involved externally, nine times out of ten are things that he tossed out. The reason is that he himself does not have the ability and strength to turn the tide, and can only muddy the waters of the Xuanwu Empire with the help of external forces, and he has a good chance to fish in troubled waters.

The current Xuan Hong is like a person walking a tightrope on the abyss, every step is extremely dangerous, and the slightest mistake will be a catastrophe.

One thing that made him feel even more depressed was that in the process of testing just now, he discovered some special features of this formation. Or maybe there were some signs that reminded him of some things he had overheard his father mention back then, some changes in this great city protection array.

"Although this formation can protect my emperor from being invaded, it is also the prison of my Xuan family, if I was not forced into desperation back then, why bother to recruit these super family 'Emperor Taishang', and now our Xuan family has become the watchdog of the Xuanwu Empire and the guardian of this formation.

Hey, if the people who built the Great Array back then left us with the slightest possibility, they would not be as aggrieved as they are now. But they just added a formation variable to it, and used it to counter me, this damn formation, this damn array crystal. ”

At that time, Xuanhong had not yet come into contact with the operation of the formation of the Xuanwu Empire's city protection array, and he didn't know what the unfamiliar words "formation, runes, variables, and countermeasures" represented, but he only knew that these words should have something to do with the formation of the imperial capital.

As Xuan Hong came into contact with the formation more and more, he didn't find anything special, and these words hidden deep in his memory were gradually forgotten by him.

However, just now, Xuan Hong remembered all those forgotten pasts, and the key to open the depths of his memory was the formation in front of him. More precisely, a part of the Mountain Protection Array, a trace of strange fluctuations in the forbidden land.

This fluctuation seems to be nothing, it is not that Xuan Hong, who is in the God Refining Period, has a brief connection with the formation, and he is afraid that he will not be able to remember his father's words back then. Now Xuan Hong already has some understanding of formations and runes, although he can't fully comprehend the complex mountain protection array in front of him, but he can still understand the general reasons for some special changes.

The changes in the formation came from the Forbidden Land, and although the reaction in the Forbidden Land was not strong, it could prove that there was a formation prohibition within it. The forbidden technique in this formation is like the crystal of the imperial array flying out of the formation, and the eyes of the entire formation immediately solidify.

Some large formations are formed by superimposing several small formations on top of each other, so that as long as they are operational, they will interact with each other, so as to achieve a more powerful effect.

In addition, there are several large formations that are connected to each other, and when a formation is activated to a certain step, another formation will be inadvertently activated, which is a countermeasure, also known as a formation ban.

Although Xuan Hong didn't know much about the formation in it, in connection with what his father said back then, the forbidden means of the formation should be a means to prevent outsiders from taking away the crystal of the imperial array.

When Xuan Hong found out that he had this heavy means, where could he still be in a good mood. You must know that these people were attracted here, but few of them were really for the title of medicine, and they basically came for the crystal of the Ancient Desolate Supreme Treasure Imperial Array.

If this Imperial Array Crystal is canceled because he can't take it out, he will probably be killed by the combined efforts of several angry forces, even if he has a high status, it is useless.

You must know that for the sake of this Imperial Array Crystal, the forces of all parties have lost a lot of strong people before and after, and the painter and the ghost family have even fallen into second-rate forces. If in the end, this Imperial Array Crystal can't be taken out at all, then everyone will only think that this itself is Xuan Hong's conspiracy, and he will be at a loss for words when the time comes.

Discovering the special variables in the formation, Xuan Hong naturally didn't dare to speak out, but his heart became more and more nervous. Seeing that the alchemy below is almost over, no matter who the title of medicine is given in the end, you need to take out the crystal of the imperial array and give it to the other party.

"Isn't it possible that this Imperial Array Crystal can't be used, if there is only one last method, I will only have one last means left. But this method is too risky, and I am not willing to use it unless I have to! ”

There was a slight bitterness in his mouth, and he muttered to himself, as if the "last resort" in his mouth seemed to have a lot of hidden dangers, whether to use it or not, Xuan Hong himself also had many scruples.

In the nervous thinking in his heart, Xuan Hong's eyes subconsciously glanced back, and there couldn't help but have a trace of excitement and hope blooming in his eyes.

'How can you forget this kid, hehe, if this kid hadn't stolen those runes and handprints that I controlled the formation, it wouldn't have aroused my suspicion and attention. This kid has already learned to go, and I was worried that he was a variable, but now I can let him do it first, so I don't need to rush to do it. ’

While thinking in his heart, Xuan Hong's gaze slowly retracted, and he unconsciously raised his head and glanced upward.

The entire Imperial Capital's protective array is still solidifying, but Xuan Hong doesn't know how long it will take for the formation to continue to operate. Now that he had a way to solve the prohibition within the formation, Xuan Hong was not so anxious, lowered his head and began to look at the refining medicine of the few people below.

The Wang family, the two representatives of the Su family, the level is actually not bad, Duan Yueyao is certainly the medicine refining Tianjiao cultivated by the medicine sect, Yao Ling is the personal disciple of the medicine camel, and he is also the junior disciple of the previous generation of Yaozi Yao Zhen.

However, the Wang family itself has a master of alchemy, Chu Nan, and with the guidance of this Chu Nan, Wang Yizhen's alchemy skills are naturally not inferior to those of the others, but the means of preparation are just a little worse.

Su Yunlong of the Su family is also an alchemist that the Su family has cultivated with all their might, although the Su family does not have an outstanding alchemist like Chu Nan, but with its financial resources and power, it is not difficult to cultivate an excellent beginner and intermediate alchemist.

It's not that the two of them didn't do their best before, but they just didn't take out all the really hidden means, after all, the means used by the two of them have too much price.

After receiving the order of their respective family masters, the two of them did not dare to hesitate any longer, and directly started refining with full firepower. The speed of the two was supposed to be a little faster than the left wind. Even if Zuo Feng used the beast fire, the refining progress at this moment was still a little slower than the two of them, and the people of the Su Wang family used such terrifying means, which was much faster than Zuo Feng.

Su Yunlong's method was to use the power of flesh and blood to exchange the body he had accumulated in the three stages of body refining for potential, and the effect brought by it became more and more obvious.

The powerful aura condensed the fire, containing the surging power of flesh and blood, which was completely injected into the mad demon pill. This mad pill was originally intended to make the person who took it stronger in a short period of time, and with these flesh and blood powers, the medicinal power of the pill became much more powerful.

Even if you look closely at the mad demon pill that is about to take shape, it already contains a thick layer of blood, and there are thick fluctuations of flesh and blood emitting from it.

Even if they can't look through the medicine pod, there are still many people who can feel the changes in the pills inside the pod. Among the three old men, the faces of the two chambers of commerce of Sitong and Yuncai became extremely ugly, and they knew that it was impossible to award the title of medicine to the ghost family now.

After all, the quality of the pills refined by the two people in front of them was already very high, even if these people present were laymen, they could clearly feel that the quality of the pills refined by the two Su Wang families was even higher.

Even if the two of them were biased, they didn't dare to point out black and white in front of everyone. You can point to a stone and say it's a walnut, but how can you point to a stone and say it's a "mountain".

The treasure connoisseur of the Duobao Pavilion was angry before, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but have the urge to laugh openly, and snorted coldly at the two people beside him.

There is a strong dissatisfaction in this, and there is a hint of mockery, which seems to say, "Look, I see that you are shameless, and you dare not take sides as recklessly as before." ”

These two treasure connoisseurs had a slightly red face, but they didn't dare to attack at all. They also knew that after this incident, the reputation of themselves and their chamber of commerce would inevitably be damaged, which was a truth they had already understood before they came.

Compared to being able to build the largest transit warehouse in the Xuanwu Empire, as well as a transit station for the exchange of goods, they can accept other losses.

Su Yunlong of the Su family has certainly paid a lot of price, but compared to Wang Yizhen of the Wang family, his efforts seem a little insignificant.

As they are, they have had a clear goal since they were young, and as a person who has been cultivated as an alchemist, cultivation and combat power are not so important. Therefore, even if after refining the medicine this time, the cultivation plummeted, and even the foundation of the three stages of refining the body was damaged, the family could try to find a way to continue to develop, but in terms of combat effectiveness, it would be worse than that of a martial artist of the same level in the future.

On the side of the Wang family, the price paid by Wang Yizhen is too great. What's more important is that Wang Yizhen's expression is still calm, and it seems that he doesn't know what price he needs to exchange for his current potential.

In the process of refining the Mad Demon Pill, the potential of his body was exerted to an extreme, but he could also feel that his body was gradually weakening. In fact, this is the loss of his life, but this loss is because he is refining the medicine with all his strength, and he has not explored it carefully at all.
