Everyone knew that it was a critical juncture, and the disciples of the various sects who knew some magic circles and forbidden things stepped forward together and laid out magic circles all over the ice wall; while those disciples who practiced the Yin and Cold Exercises accelerated their casting spells and froze the ice wall; the physical cultivation disciples were busy digging wells and adding water; and the disciples who liked to kill stepped forward to block the hordes of demon beasts and ghosts that had escaped. Under Kong Rui's arrangement, everyone was also methodical, trying their best to strengthen their defensive circle.

Feng Yue, Zhang Kai and other disciples knew that they couldn't let those demon beasts and ghosts hurt these ice walls that they had worked so hard to build, so Zhang Kai released a huge fireball in front of them, and everyone lined up in the shape of a goose feather on both sides of the fireball, driving the demon beasts to both sides, firmly protecting the ice wall, and a few disciples were responsible for killing the demon beasts that broke into their defensive circle. Fortunately, the scope of this ice wall is not large, and it is indeed not threatened by everyone's strict defense.

Under the illumination of the fireball, these disciples saw from a distance that the pale yellow mist was flowing silently, and once some slower-moving demon beasts and ghosts were submerged by the mist, they only heard a few miserable howls, and they lost their breath for a while.

Seeing that this mist was so far away and so poisonous, everyone couldn't help but be a little frightened. Seeing that the pale yellow mist was slowly approaching, he only heard Zhang Kai shouting: "Retreat!" and he didn't care about the fireball, more than a dozen people hurriedly jumped into the pit, and the disciples of the Shiming Mountain Sect inside also hurriedly activated the corresponding defensive prohibitions, magic circles, etc., hoping to resist the poisonous gas that spread over.

I heard a muffled sound around the ice wall, and under a flash of glow, a hemispherical transparent shield appeared on the ice wall.

Kong Rui and a few others jumped onto the round platform in the middle, looked through the protective shield, and saw that the fireball left by Zhang Kai was slowly submerged by the pale yellow mist, and the fireball with a diameter of more than one zhang seemed to have no effect on the poisonous mist, just like a candle flame that fell into the extremely cold mist, slowly extinguished, as if nothing had happened.

Seeing such a situation, Kong Rui and the others couldn't help but secretly worry in their hearts, wondering if the defensive circle here could hold out until the teleportation circle was opened.

The rest of the disciples were also very worried, afraid that if the ice wall could not withstand the erosion of this poisonous mist, everyone would be in trouble. Soon they saw that the stars overhead were obscured by a yellowish poisonous mist that quickly overflowed the protective shield above their pit and continued to flow forward.

Everyone held their breath and waited for a while, but they didn't find that the poisonous gas in the ice wall had penetrated in, so they couldn't help but cheer, so they hurriedly continued to dig the well downwards and get more water to strengthen the ice wall;

Kong Rui knew that it was easy to do it at night, and when it was dawn, once the sun rose, it would be difficult to guarantee these ice walls, so he asked: "Fellow Daoists, our defense will hold out until noon tomorrow, but I dare not say that these ice walls can still be effective before noon tomorrow, what can you do now?" ”

Li Zhang said: "Senior Brother Kong, don't worry, I just saw the situation of the fireball extinguished, I think this poisonous gas is a kind of poisonous gas with a cold attribute, but it will have a blessing effect on our ice wall, so as long as we have enough water, there should be no problem for the ice wall, but now we are worried about these defensive arrays." ”

When a disciple next to him heard him say this, someone immediately went to the side of the ice wall with a piece of moonstone in his hand to check, and sure enough, he saw that the ice outside the ice wall did not show any signs of melting, but the ice wall was slowly melting because of the large number of people, and the heat was constantly dissipating. Then he said to the others: "That's true, but the melting inside the ice wall is enough for us to deal with." ”

Kong Rui said: "That's true, I think we still try to dig some space down, just leave a few people on it to maintain the magic circle and the ice wall, and the rest of the people go down to the ground, and they can take turns to rest." "There are more than 80 people gathered in this small space, and it is really crowded, and everyone knows that there is no other way, so they still keep digging down.

Fortunately, many of these disciples were familiar with the various prohibitions, and while digging down, they kept reinforcing the pillar in the middle and the surrounding walls, and used the excavated earth to teleport out with the bowls, but put all the seeping water into storage bags to strengthen the ice walls, and the further down they went, the larger the area they dug out, and the less crowded they were at the beginning.

Nearly an hour later, everyone made a lot of effort to expand their foothold, but they could already see that the sky was slowly brightening, but they only saw a yellow thing outside the protective shield overhead, and even the gray cloud they saw yesterday couldn't see clearly.

Li Zhangfei went up to the vicinity of the protective shield to check the erosion of the protective shield by the poisonous mist, and then fell to the bottom of the pit, and said jokingly: "Now we have really become frogs at the bottom of the well! ”

Everyone was nervous, but seeing that he was talking and laughing freely, laughing at himself from time to time, he also felt a lot more relaxed.

Kong Rui also smiled, and walked over and said, "Senior Brother Li, in your opinion, how long can our protective shield last?" Li Zhang said: "Although this Amethyst Inkstone Protective Array of our Shiming Mountain is not as famous as your Sect's Falling Shadow Great Array, if nothing else, it should be no problem to support it for another hour." ”

Everyone was overjoyed, if their Shiming Mountain's protective shield could last for two hours, the other three families all had their own means, and these people's protective shields must be more than this, so it would be easy to hold on until the teleportation circle was opened. Kong Rui was also a lot relieved, and said, "In this way, it seems that we will be able to hold out until then." ”

Li Zhang just nodded and said, "But we still have to dig some more space down, preferably some horizontal passages." ”

Kong Rui's heart moved, and he asked, "Senior Brother Li is worried that there will be more problems when the teleportation circle is opened?"

Li Zhang knew that he couldn't hide it, so he had no choice but to say: "That's true, after all, these of us are just some spirit disciple-level defensive arrays, and we are simply vulnerable in front of those Crystal Qi Realm seniors." ”

When everyone heard this, they all fell silent again, only then did they know that there was really nothing now, and it was time for them to really test when the teleportation circle was opened.

As soon as everyone thought of this, they hurriedly started to dig around, and each team dug around, but Hui Ding, Liu Shuo, Cao Ying and other people who were familiar with the magic circle all gathered together, and everyone discussed how to ensure the integrity of their defensive magic circle when the teleportation circle was opened, even if it was a little broken, they should know how to resist the poisonous mist and not enter their space.

I only heard Hui Ding say: "This time, because there is a corresponding traction array, the teleportation array of your uncles and ancestors should enter us very accurately." The biggest problem now is that this teleportation circle will keep floating around until it slowly and accurately docks with the traction array disk, and it is very fast, which will greatly damage our defensive circle. This must be difficult for them to control, and we are even more powerless to deal with. ”

Kong Rui said: "Senior brother, can we add a few more layers of defensive circles to the outside of our protective shield? In this way, we can also cushion the impact of the teleportation array that Senior Uncle Zu forcibly opened on our defensive array, at least it can slow down its speed, and also reduce the range of its drifting, so that the damage to our protective shield will not be so great." ”

Hui Ding said: "This is the best, but we can't go out now, how can we arrange the array flag outside?"

Kong Rui himself is mainly based on puppetry, so he naturally knows how to do it, so he smiled and said: "This shouldn't be difficult, we can control the puppet to help us work outside." ”
