Chapter 28: Panic Spreads Five Hundred Miles Away

After leaving the Illusory Mountain, Leng Yanran rushed towards the Luo Heaven Sect without returning to the Moro Kingdom.

Heeding her master's instructions to leave no witnesses, she chose to hide herself beneath a black cloak and a hat, ensuring her presence wouldn't be detected prematurely.

Uncertain about the exact range of the restricted spell her master provided, Leng Yanran decided it would be safer to wait until she reached the foot of the mountain where the Luo Heaven Sect was situated before deploying it.

She couldn't afford any mistakes that would allow the sect's people to escape, or she would be too ashamed to face her master again.

Thankfully, her journey was smooth, and by the time she arrived at the foot of the mountain, the evening sun was beginning to set.

"Halt! Who goes there?"

"Leave at once! Today, the Luo Heaven Sect will not receive any visitors!"

Just as Leng Yanran arrived at the foot of the Luo Heaven Sect mountain, she was intercepted by two figures. Glancing at them, she realized they were merely two disciples at the Sky-Realm.

Without a moment's hesitation, Leng Yanran grabbed each of them by the neck, lifting them effortlessly like baby chicks.

"Take a deep breath; feeling a bit dizzy at first is normal…"

Recalling her master's words when she first met him, Leng Yanran whispered softly into the ears of the two disciples. The words seemed like a devil's whisper to them!

After struggling fruitlessly, the two disciples eventually lost consciousness. With a casual wave of her hand, Leng Yanran produced two formation discs from her storage pouch. She infused a wisp of spiritual energy into one of them, activating the pre-set array.

Following her master's instructions, the first disc she activated was the restraining formation, preventing anyone from escaping the Luo Heaven Sect.

As the formation disc hummed, an invisible barrier rapidly expanded, covering an area of five li, then ten li, and finally a hundred li!

Eventually, the circular barrier stopped expanding once it reached a radius of five hundred li, solidifying into an incredibly tough, albeit transparent, barrier.

"Isn't this... a bit too large in scope!?"

Leng Yanran found herself a little dumbfounded. She had taken extra care to activate the restraining formation right in front of the Luo Heaven Sect's mountain gate. If she had known it would cover such a vast area, she wouldn't have exerted so much effort.

No need to be so cautious!

With no time to dwell on her thoughts, Leng Yanran quickly infused another wisp of spiritual energy into the second formation disc, activating the defensive array.

The current commotion was bound to alert the people of the Luo Heaven Sect, and she couldn't afford to be careless.

As she activated the defensive formation, another circular barrier appeared, but this time, it didn't endlessly expand. It only covered a ten-meter radius around her, which was enough for her to move freely.

Upon testing, Leng Yanran discovered that the defensive formation moved with her as long as she carried the formation disc. Ten meters should be sufficient! So, she activated the defensive formation, took flight using her abilities, and headed straight for the Luo Heaven Sect's mountain gate!

This significant disturbance naturally drew the attention of everyone in the Luo Heaven Sect, including nearby wandering cultivators.

"What's going on? What is this?"

"What's happening!?"

"I feel uneasy, as if there's some danger…"

"I've had enough of this commotion. Fellow cultivators, if we have the chance, we'll meet again. Farewell!"

"What the heck!"

"Why can't we leave? What is this thing!?"

Many timid wandering cultivators sensed something amiss and decided to leave temporarily. However, as they tried to depart in various directions, they found invisible barriers blocking their paths, even in the sky and underground. There was simply no way out.

"The larger the barrier's range, the more fragile it becomes. With such a massive barrier, breaking through shouldn't be too difficult!"

"Fellow cultivators, let's join forces and break this thing. We must escape from here first."

"Agreed, let's do it together!"

After exchanging glances and sensing the unease in each other's eyes, one cultivator suggested joining forces, and everyone else agreed. Dozens of cultivators, ranging from Sky Realm and Transcendent Realm experts, to several Return to Void Realm powerhouses, launched a collective attack on a spot of the barrier.

But to their dismay...

"Huh?"

"We didn't even make a crack!?"

"What a joke! With so many of us combining our strength, even a Ninth Heaven of the Return to Void Realm would be pulverized!"

"How can this barrier be completely unyielding?"

For a moment, all the cultivators looking for excitement felt panic rising in their hearts.

After several attempts, they all gave up and chose to retreat to the farthest edge of the barrier, which was the furthest from the Luo Heaven Sect. They decided to observe the situation quietly.

They had clearly come here for the Luo Heaven Sect, and if the sect could handle the person who set up this barrier, then their problem would naturally be solved.

Within the Luo Heaven Sect, although Luo Wu, the Sect Master, and Yang Chun had been drinking the entire afternoon, they were far from being drunk.

When they saw the sudden abnormality, the two exchanged glances. Everyone in the main hall stood up and walked out to the square of the Luo Heaven Sect.

"I didn't expect that person would really dare to come knocking on our door."

"If I can't handle it later, I'll trouble Brother Yang Chun to lend a hand," said Luo Wu, narrowing his eyes as he glanced at the barrier in the sky, feeling somewhat uneasy.

The person who set up the barrier was undoubtedly extremely confident, using it to prevent the people of the Luo Heaven Sect from escaping. For a moment, he found it difficult to gauge the opponent's true strength.

"Naturally," replied Yang Chun, his expression serious as he too felt that the opponent's actions were overly confident.

Soon, Leng Yanran's figure appeared above the Luo Heaven Sect, and the people on the square finally saw her existence.

"So, you're the Annihilation Realm expert behind Leng Yanran?"

Luo Wu squinted his eyes, trying to focus his gaze, but he found a defensive formation-like barrier surrounding her. It even had an isolating effect on her aura, making it difficult for him to discern her cultivation level.

Additionally, since Leng Yanran was wearing a black robe and concealing her face, Luo Wu naturally jumped to a mistaken conclusion.

On the square, the numerous disciples and elders of the Luo Heaven Sect stared intently at the black-robed figure, feeling inexplicably nervous.

They were also puzzled about when the opponent set up such a massive isolating formation. Could it be that during the past half month, the opponent had already quietly infiltrated the vicinity and laid down the formation in advance?

Such cunning planning, such meticulous calculations! The fact that they didn't discover it until the opponent activated the formation was terrifying!
