BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1539
The bloody frost that covered the mountain peak started to melt silently and seeped into the ground slowly.
The crowd watched on quietly and stared at the fountain on the peak.
The water rippled, but it didn\'t make any other movements. However, the two figures they wanted to see didn\'t appear again.
Time seemed to pass especially slowly.
…
A ray of morning light shone down through the thick clouds. Everything was like uncovered black mesh, revealing its original appearance.
Elder Bo Yan looked up in a daze.
The sky lit up.
The night was very long.
"Bo Yan, the frost on the surrounding mountain peaks has fully melted." Elder Hua Feng\'s voice was a little bitter.
Elder Bo Yan followed his gaze and indeed saw that under the tremendous pressure of the Heaven-Locking Formation, the bloody frost that spread toward the surroundings had completely disappeared.
There were only spots of frost still left on Million Wine Mountain. There were more near the fountain on the mountain peak, but it seemed like they wouldn\'t last for long.
The Heaven-Locking Formation seemed smaller than before as it started to gather all the surrounding force to the middle and focused on handling the remaining frost.
At this point, basically only those silver lines were covering Million Wine Mountain.
But at this moment, Million Wine Mountain was filled with holes, and its appearance had completely changed. It was no longer a mountain and instead looked like a giant rock statue.
Its structure was contorted and strange. The more shocking thing was that even now, the intersecting rocks were still turning around with the Heaven-Locking Formation. Every single line looked extremely bright, but it had murderous intent!
They knew very clearly how terrifying the Heaven-Locking Formation\'s force was! Once it was contacted, it would undeniably crush everything, including all the living things inside!
It was a patch of black at the places the bloody frost was melting, and it still looked pretty dead. One could see that it would take a lot of time and effort to restore all of these things to their original state.
"What exactly… is that?" Elder Bo Yan stared at the fountain and couldn\'t help but mutter softly.
Because the Heaven-Locking Formation was seemingly suppressing it, the fountain no longer had water coming out of it and recovered its usual appearance.
There were no ripples, and a ball of frost formed by the edges. However, the water was dark, and one couldn\'t see the inner situation clearly.
The gray rocks in the surroundings were crushed by the Heaven-Locking Formation into tiny pieces. This scene caused the crowd\'s hearts to be heavy because the rocks around that fountain were very special. With lightning bolts striking the rocks for so many years, it was inevitable that some marks would be left on them, but they were never damaged.
Now, they didn\'t even put up a fight in front of the Heaven-Locking Formation.
The scene is already in this state, so the two people in the fountain are probably… Elder Bo Yan rubbed his brows and felt lethargic. These two people are important, not to mention that these two kids have a good relationship with the director and the elders! If it really—
He didn\'t dare to think much.
After a temporary silence, he looked at the other elders. "Hua Feng, Wan Zheng, Ouyang, and…"
He called a few names.
"The few of you can stay behind. The rest of you can go back and rest."
After experiencing this torture, everyone was exhausted. Even Wan Zheng and the rest were relying on their willpower.
"Once the Heaven-Locking Formation is activated, it will continue to be active for a month. During this month, there must be someone guarding here every day. Hence, we must not let down our guard during this one month. You must be very careful, okay?"
In other words, this was a long-term fight. If all of them were overly exhausted the next day, their efforts would be to no avail.
Hearing Elder Bo Yan say this, the elders nodded in agreement because they also knew the pros and cons.
"Also, do comfort the students after you go back." Elder Bo Yan sighed in his heart. Even though the commotion in Million Wine Mountain didn\'t cause many injuries or deaths, the students will inevitably be worried. During this period of time, the countless troubles in Ling Xiao Academy have been worrying enough. In addition to this time…
"During this one month, nobody is allowed to come and go out of the academy as they wish! You must report to me about everything, and I will verify it personally!"
The elders were shocked, but upon deeper thinking, this was a special period of time, and it was understandable that he did this.
After acknowledging his order, most elders went back respectively.
Only Elder Wan Zheng and the others were left behind to stand guard here.
"Senior Shangguan, why don\'t you go back and rest too?" Elder Hua Feng hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively. "We\'re standing guard here. Once… Once the two of them come out, we\'ll definitely tell you instantly."
Shangguan Jing shook his head. "I\'ll just wait here. I won\'t get in your way; you don\'t have to care about me."
His eyes were bloodshot, and there was a faint green color below them.
He looked extremely frail.
Although he was a legendary warrior, his Holy Body had been hibernating for thousands of years, and parts of his soul had also been separated. Once he woke up, he hurriedly rushed over to Ling Xiao Academy from the Flood-Desert Northern Region.
He didn\'t even get to properly recuperate his body, and his skills couldn\'t be compared to him at his peak. That was also the reason why Elder Hua Feng was so worried about him.
Seeing that Shangguan Jing was insistent, Elder Hua Feng\'s lips moved before he swallowed his remaining words.
"Okay. If you have any requests, just let me know." He clenched his fists tightly. "I\'ll wait with you."
Shangguan Jing nodded, his voice low and slightly hoarse as he said, "Thank you."
"Dream on." Yi Wenzhuo\'s cold mockery came from the side. "The Heaven-Locking Formation has already been activated. Even a legendary warrior can\'t escape from the inside, let alone the two of them!"
He naturally knew that Rong Xiu and Shangguan Yue were top talents in the younger generation.
To be able to break through and become true gods at such an age, they were definitely extremely rare existences in the God Residence Realm.
But so what? True gods were just true gods!
"You—" Elder Hua Feng was so agitated by this sentence that his expression changed.
"We won\'t trouble you to worry about this." Shangguan Jing pulled Elder Hua Feng back and gazed at Yi Wenzhuo coldly. "Since you\'re not a director, the academy\'s power is also not in your hands. You also have no relation to Rong Xiu and Yue\'er. If we haven\'t even said anything about them, who are you to guide us and comment on them?"
Yi Wenzhuo\'s expression turned cold. "You—"
"Previously, I took Ling Xiao Academy into consideration and gave you face. Don\'t go overboard!"
