Chapter 140 Divine Court
As soon as Li Lingzhen approached the huge palace, he saw dozens of red-robed followers gathered in front of the door, shouting loudly.
"You, you, and the rest of you, go and inform the elders, and the others will follow me!"
As soon as the voice fell, a large number of believers poured into the hall, while the remaining few dispersed and left.
Soon, when one of them saw Li Lingzhen, his face lit up and he hurried forward.
"Mei Hu, go to the divine court to protect the sacred tree!"
Plum Hu?
Is this the name of this spirit?
Li Lingzhen's heart moved. It seemed that the effect of the spell he cast for the first time was not bad.
"what happened?"
he asked pretending to be surprised.
"Someone broke into the Divine Courtyard and blocked the road leading to the Divine Courtyard. Come over and help!"
The visitor finished speaking in a hurry, and without waiting for Li Lingzhen's reply, he turned around and ran away, apparently to inform others.
Seeing this scene, Li Ling was really thoughtful.
According to the information he obtained, the Red Silk Village exists because of the Red Silk Road, and the Red Silk Road exists because of the Sacred Tree. This shows the status of the Sacred Tree in the Red Silk Village.
On weekdays, only the saint, the elders and the attendants around the saint can enter and exit the divine court where the sacred tree is located at will.
Other members of the congregation are only allowed to enter the divine court to pay homage to the sacred tree during rituals.
But now the place that is the absolute core of Red Silk Village has been invaded?
He had just come in from the outer barrier, and the people who invaded the red silk road were unlikely to be outsiders. In other words, was there internal strife among them?
This is a good opportunity!
Thinking of this, Li Lingzhen no longer hesitated and set out to enter the huge palace.
Different from the simplicity on the outside, the palace is quite luxurious inside, with white walls and green tiles, sorghum colorful eaves, and red ribbons hung everywhere on the walls, which Li Lingzhen secretly marveled at!
It is really difficult for the villagers of Hongsi Village to build such a large palace with the efforts of one village.
After passing through several palace gates, Li Lingzhen saw the figures, which were several injured members of the red-robed cult.
When several people saw Li Lingzhen, they were immediately excited!
"Quick, hurry up and protect the sacred tree!"
Li Lingzhen nodded and sped up.
After a while, he came to the apse and saw a palace door full of corpses and blood.
He took a look and saw that there were at least two to three hundred people dead here, as well as dozens of red-robed believers lying on the ground, wailing and squirming.
Have you broken through here yet?
It seems that the number of intruders will not be too many!
Li Lingzhen ignored the people on the ground, walked through the palace gate, and continued deeper.
Not long after, he finally heard the shouts of killing coming one after another.
Hundreds of red-robed cult members kept charging towards a palace gate, and at the palace gate were three or four strong men in strange costumes.
They may be holding magic weapons, throwing talismans, or chanting incantations to release spells. In short, every time they take action, they can defeat the red-robed cultists.
But despite this, the red-robed cultists never lost morale at all, and could always reorganize and charge again after each defeat.
After several back and forths, the pressure on the strong man at the palace gate doubled.
"Damn, these idiots are crazy!"
"They have used secret techniques to make them unafraid of death. If this continues, we won't be able to hold on any longer."
"Anyway, I only have less than two levels of mana left. You guys can support me first while I go to the back to rest for a while."
"What the hell!"
A man with a scar on his head said angrily: "I don't have any power anymore, I also need to rest."
"How about we withdraw first? We have bought Lao Jiaotou so much time, so that's all right, right?"
"No, this is the last palace gate. If we retreat further, we will reach the Divine Courtyard. If Lao Jiaotou and Wang Juchen don't finish, all our efforts will be wasted."
"How can we waste all our efforts?"
The scarred man said nonchalantly: "If they can't do it for so long, then let's do it. Isn't Wang Juchen very good at fighting? We bought him time, and now it's his turn to deal with these people and buy us time.
The time has come.”
"Wang Juchen is willing to listen to you?"
"Hmph, if he refuses to take action, then no one will be able to live well."
Hearing this, several people were filled with thoughts. They were fighting life and death here. They didn't know what was going on inside, and there was no trace of the secret medicine.
At that time, even if Wang Juchen and Lao Jiaotou coerce Mei Xuanhua to get the secret medicine, how much will they be able to share with them?
"How about letting them into the Divine Court and then deal with them there?" someone suggested.
"That's how it should be!"
The scarred man laughed loudly and flew away first, ignoring the red-robed followers who climbed up to the palace gate.
"This guy!"
Seeing the scarred man leaving, the others were shocked and angry, no longer interested in fighting, and retreated one after another.
When the red-robed cult members at the palace gate saw the scarred man and others retreating, they thought they had won the battle and felt excited.
In an instant, all the red-robed sect members were chasing after him.
............
The divine court is no longer a palace, but a vast grassland.
In the center of the grassland is a circular altar made of stacked bricks. In front of the altar grows a huge banyan tree with a height of more than thirty feet.
The banyan tree emerged from the clouds and looked much more majestic than the palace. However, the array was arranged around the divine court and the shadow of the banyan tree could not be seen from the outside world.
Is this the sacred tree?
The man with the scar was shocked. This was the first time he saw the sacred tree. The sacred tree was silent, but it gave him an inexplicable sense of oppression.
He swallowed and looked around.
Soon, an urgent sound came.
"Scar, why did you get in? Where are the others?"
The scarred man looked over and saw that it was Lao Jiaotou who was rushing towards him.
He was embarrassed to say that he was worried about Lao Jiaotou and Wang Juchen being left to eat alone, so he only said: "Master Jiao, brothers are worried that you won't be able to handle it, so they sent me in to take a look."
Lao Jiaotou didn't pay attention to what he said. He grabbed his arm and drooled everywhere: "You go to Wang Juchen's place to restrain that beast, and I'll take a rest."
After saying that, Lao Jiaotou didn't know when he took out a pill and drank it, then he sat cross-legged and meditated.
Beast?
The scarred man frowned, and just when he was about to say something, the explosions of talismans were heard one after another near the altar.
A monk wearing a bronze mask flew out of the smoke and kept retreating and dodging. Opposite him was an invisible shadow.

Wang Juchen glanced hastily in mid-air and happened to catch a glimpse of the scarred man.
The man with the scar was confused. He thought he could take a breather when he came in, but he didn't expect Wang Juchen to be pressed down and beaten by something unknown.
"Scar, go quickly!"
Seeing the scarred man's hesitation, Lao Jiaotou opened his eyes and urged.
The scarred man's eyes flashed, he approached Wang Juchen unhurriedly, and shouted: "Wang Juchen, what are you doing? Where is the secret medicine?"
Wang Juchen was forced to panic by the black shadow and couldn't speak for a moment. At this moment, a cold voice sounded.
"Do you want the secret medicine too?"
The scarred man turned around and saw Mei Xuan's painting standing quietly on the altar.
"Mei Saint, we have been working for you for so long. There is no credit but hard work, right? I don't care about other people. I don't ask for much. It's just a secret medicine. If you give me the secret medicine, I will turn around and leave!"
Mei Xuanhua looked at him steadily, and after a while, she slowly said: "Okay, you kill the old man over there, and I will give you the secret medicine."
As soon as these words came out, the scarred man's face lit up with joy, and he immediately turned back to look at Lao Jiaotou, but he didn't expect that Lao Jiaotou was also looking at him at this time.
There was a hint of anger in Lao Jiaotou's eyes: "Scar, we are in the same group, don't be fooled."
"Old Jiaotou, people die for money and birds die for food!"
The scarred man shook his head, and mana began to flow from his body.
"Scar, do you dare?"
Seeing this scene, Wang Juchen in mid-air became anxious and angrily scolded the scarred man, but as soon as he was distracted, a black shadow passed over his back, leaving a black wound with white smoke coming out.
Wang Juchen groaned and hurriedly waved the big scissors in his hand to defend himself against the fierce attack that followed.
Seeing that Wang Juchen couldn't escape at all, the scarred man laughed loudly and said, "They say you, Wang Juchen, are very capable, but it seems that's not necessarily true."
After saying that, the scarred man put on the magic talisman and his body disappeared immediately.
