With Shui Ling having erected a massive water shield, the clay figures were unable to break through for the moment, giving Ye Feng and the others a brief respite.
"Ye Feng... those blood mists were absorbed by the Variel Altar... Tu Po had Lin Ba Sen create a large number of goblins to fight the humans... the War Horn drove people into a frenzied slaughter... the purpose is likely slaughter and death..."
"The altar... Tu Po might be trying to summon something with the Variel Altar!"
Qiao Ying exclaimed in horror after observing for a while.
Ye Feng's expression also changed!
Because he thought of a possibility: Tu Po was going to such great lengths precisely to summon Ares, one of the Twelve Main Gods...
"Ye Feng, we probably need to quickly stop Tu Po or destroy the altar... or prevent the people of Arcanum City from slaughtering each other..."
Bing also seemed to realize something and spoke with great concern.
During the brief discussion Ye Feng and the others were having, Arcanum City was already engulfed in flames, with sounds of fighting, explosions, screams, and goblin roars echoing everywhere...
Vast amounts of blood mist floated in the air, and under the morning sunlight, Arcanum City appeared as if it were immersed in an eerie sea of blood...
"Buzz!"
Just as Ye Feng was about to charge to the top of the Variel Altar to kill Tu Po or destroy it, the space at the base of the Variel Altar twisted, and three figures instantly appeared: Tu Po, Hua Xin, and Lin Ba Sen...
Unlike the bare-handed Tu Po from before, Tu Po now held a long spear engraved with strange runes, exuding immense pressure – the Spear of War.
"Boom~ Crash!~"
"Crash~ Hiss!"
At this moment, the massive water shield conjured by Shui Ling could no longer withstand the attacks of the numerous clay figures and dispersed.
"Kid, I couldn't show you true creation in the ancient ruins, now is the perfect time for you to experience it!"
Tu Po snorted coldly, formed a strange hand seal, and his earth-attribute arcane energy flashed. The clay on the ground surged, and figures rapidly condensed...
"Big Brother, there's a fake me... and Sister Bing... Shui Ling and Grandpa Li Shu too..."
Xiao Xiao exclaimed as she looked at the newly condensed clay figures made by Tu Po not far ahead.
Earlier, due to the appearance of the Variel Altar, Xiao Xiao, Bing, Shui Ling, and Li Shu had all sustained minor injuries. Tu Po had taken advantage of that moment to collect their blood, thus creating the clay figures...
"Whoosh! Swish swish swish!"
While Ye Feng was thinking, the clay figure Shui Ling shot out a barrage of water arrows towards them. Shui Ling flickered, deflected the water arrows, and swiftly swung her water blade at the clay figure Shui Ling.
"Swish!"
"Screech!"
"Ugh!"
Shui Ling's water blade struck the clay figure Shui Ling's right waist. The clay figure Shui Ling's waist was instantly split open, and a muffled groan of suppressed pain was heard.
"What?"
Including Shui Ling, all six people on Ye Feng's side showed expressions of astonishment.
Shui Ling's own right waist suddenly burst out with a spray of blood. The shape of the wound was identical to the clay figure Shui Ling's, as if Shui Ling's water blade had not hit the clay figure but herself...
"Hoo! Boom!~"
At this moment, the clay figure Xiao Xiao also attacked Ye Feng. Ye Feng had initially intended to dispatch her instantly, but seeing Shui Ling's wound, he could only shift to evasion...
Qiao Ying, Bing, and Li Shu also became hesitant in dealing with the new clay figures created by Tu Po, not daring to defeat them as they had before...
"Kid, what are you spacing out for!"
As Tu Po's voice fell, he appeared behind Ye Feng, his Spear of War thrusting directly at Ye Feng's back...
Ye Feng abruptly turned around, his Tang blade slashing out swiftly...
"Clang!"
A clear metallic clang echoed. Ye Feng's Tang blade met Tu Po's Spear of War squarely. A powerful blast wave erupted, and the space at the point of collision twisted slightly...
"Swish! Clang!"
"Bang! Clang!~ Clang!"
Tu Po did not stop there. Wielding the Spear of War, he rapidly attacked Ye Feng...
"Chirp! Bang!~"
After a forceful clash, Ye Feng retreated, using the rebound force, and simultaneously fired a signal flare into the air.
"Looking for reinforcements?"
Tu Po narrowed his eyes, which were almost mere slits due to his excessive obesity.
The next second, his earth-attribute arcane energy surged, and the ground beneath Ye Feng and the others instantly turned into mud.
A large number of clay figures condensed from the muddy ground and launched an even fiercer offensive towards Ye Feng and the others...
"Clang!~ Bang!"
After another clash with Ye Feng, Tu Po’s body directly merged into the void. Just as Ye Feng was about to pursue, he was intercepted by Lin Ba Sen, who had arrived.
"Clang~"
"Clatter!"
Although Ye Feng could break through spatial barriers, Lin Ba Sen's formations were also quite fast, and he didn't engage directly, only interfering. Therefore, Ye Feng was unable to catch up to Tu Po for a while...
Within a few breaths, Tu Po reached the very top of the Variel Altar and thrust the Spear of War downwards.
The runes on the Spear of War immediately glowed with a red-gray light, which then surged into the Variel Altar.
"Buzz!"
The Variel Altar trembled violently and erupted with dazzling red light that radiated outwards...
"Ah! Kill! Kill! Kill!"
"Kill everything!"
"Croak croak!"
"Ah! Sizzle!"
"Hya!"
After the red light from the Variel Altar, the entire Arcanum City erupted with a clamorous roar, and even the goblins went mad...
"Boom!~ Rumble!"
"Boom! Bang bang bang!"
"Rumble!~ Hoo~"
At this moment, a group of people ran to a spot some distance from Ye Feng and the others. Their eyes were bloodshot, and they were consuming pills of Xuantu Dan, attacking each other without dodging, and finally self-destructed...
"Croak!~"
"Bang! Bang!"
"Jeehar~ Croak!"
"Bang!~"
Not only humans but even the goblins who had arrived through Lin Ba Sen's teleportation array went insane, hacking and biting indiscriminately, their insides spilling out...
In a moment, Arcanum City was completely enveloped by blood mist, and a massive amount of blood mist converged towards the Variel Altar.
The blood mist gathered at the Variel Altar became denser and denser, eventually becoming so thick that Ye Feng could no longer clearly see the surrounding clay figures or Lin Ba Sen and the others...
"Swish~"
At this moment, Tu Po flashed and reappeared before Ye Feng. Without a word, he attacked Ye Feng with the Spear of War, with Lin Ba Sen close behind.
Tu Po did not seem to intend to fight Ye Feng head-on but rather to entangle him.
Furthermore, to restrict Ye Feng's movements, he specifically summoned the clay figures of Bing and Xiao Xiao to cooperate, completely disregarding Ye Feng's attacks...
