Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor-Chapter 823 - 316: The Summoning Court’s Plot

Whether the Divine Artifact can be found or not is no longer important. At least, she must take the remaining people and escape.

"Roar---"

A terrifying beast’s roar echoed from the direction of the corridor.

"This is... the Purple Gold Demon Beast."

Everyone was stunned.

Just as they were preparing to escape, the Purple Gold statues made from those magical beasts in the Demon Beast Corridor all came to life.

Twenty Purple Gold Demon Beasts were eyeing them like prey, waiting in the corridor and blocking the escape route layer by layer.

"How could this be? How did these demon beasts come to life?" It was truly misfortune upon misfortune. Lan and others didn’t expect to encounter so many demon beasts at such a critical moment.

These demon beasts, for some unknown reason, had transformed into Purple Gold statues and hadn’t eaten for over five hundred years.

Now, famished, they would devour anything they came across.

To escape, there would surely be another battle.

The castle shook more and more violently.

In Lan and the others’ eyes, only a gravity remained.

Outside Taiyuan Castle, the Third Main Summoner and several Summoners from the Magic Temple watched from afar as the castle gradually collapsed, a smile of conspiracy success on their faces.

This Taiyuan Castle shall be the tomb for the Six Great Forces. "It seems that the people of the Six Great Forces won’t return from this place."

"It was really thanks to the plan of the Red Robe Summoning Emperor. Those fools actually believed they could find some Divine Artifact here."

"Foolish, five hundred years ago, Taiyuan Castle buried the treacherous Taiyuan. Today, let this castle completely bury the elites of the Six Great Forces."

The Summoning Court had ambitious dreams of weakening or even eliminating the other great powers to become the only power on the continent.

But they had never had the opportunity.

It wasn’t until Ji Fang inherited the position of the Red Robe Summoning Emperor, being the most magnificent and strategic Summon Emperor in over a thousand years.

Pope Ji had been painstakingly building up the Summoning Court for many years.

Finally, the opportunity favored the Summoning Court.

An anomaly had occurred in the Dutian Blood Realm, and the Dutian Blood Seal would collapse at any moment.

The mages and martial artists on the continent became restless, proposing to search for the lost Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts.

The Summon Emperor knew that the Magic Temple would use the Starry Sky Magic Array to locate the Divine Artifacts and began plotting today’s conspiracy.

However, what surprised the Red Robe Summoning Emperor even more was that the Magic Temple’s Starry Sky Magic Array designated the Taiyuan Ruins as the site where the Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts would be unearthed.

Upon hearing this news, the Summoning Court pretended to form an alliance with Dihong City and proceed to the Taiyuan Ruins.

Those returning Summoners were those from the Summoning Court who had "been forced" to leave earlier from Sea and Sky.

They feigned withdrawal to lure members of the other Six Great Forces into the Taiyuan Ruins and into their traps.

Despite setting countless traps along the way from the Taiyuan Tree to the Enchanted Forked Path, the people of the Six Great Forces passed smoothly.

Fortunately, the wise Summon Emperor had left a contingency plan—the Purple Gold Demon Beast statues in Taiyuan Castle.

Purple Gold statues, also known as the Purple Gold Curse.

They were magical beasts sealed within Taiyuan Castle by the Red Robe Summoning Emperor of that time using the Purple Gold Blood Curse at the beginning of the Taiyuan Ruins’ establishment.

Only Summoners of the Summoner Level could unlock the Purple Gold Demon Beasts.

After the people from the Major Forces entered Taiyuan Castle, the Third Main Summoner lurking in the shadows unlocked the Purple Gold Curse and sealed the entrance to Taiyuan Castle.

Just then, Yun Sheng and Chen Lianlian had a conflict in the City Lord’s Hall. As the castle was on the brink of collapse, the people from the Six Great Forces were forced to retreat, but exhausted as they were, they never expected to be met by the hungry Purple Gold Demon Beasts.

"But Lord Summoner, are you certain there’s no Divine Artifact in the castle? If not, why would the Magic Temple’s magic array indicate this place?" a Summoner questioned.

"Impossible. The Taiyuan Ruins were thoroughly searched by the Summoning Court over five hundred years ago. The top echelons of the court are all aware of this," the Third Main Summoner replied dismissively.

Not only Taiyuan Castle, even every dwelling in the Taiyuan Ruins was meticulously searched, let alone Taiyuan Castle.

The Third Main Summoner confidently asserted that there were no Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts in the Taiyuan Ruins.

This time, it was all thanks to the Magic Temple.

The Elite Camp, Hou Qin, Great Zhou, Hunter Soldier Union, Tang Yuan, Xianju, Medicine Emperor Pavilion, etc., were all prominent forces on the continent.

Those considered the most talented mages and martial artists had to die.

Especially the talents from the Elite Camp, Hou Qin, Great Zhou, and Tang Yuan, known as the most gifted Crown Princes and Princes, were all buried in the Taiyuan Ruins.

Thinking of this, the Third Main Summoner felt even more triumphant.

At this time, the sky unknowingly darkened.

The purple cloud in the sky seemed to press down several inches.

The entire Taiyuan Mountain seemed more oppressive and suffocating.

With the Third Main Summoner and more than ten Summoning Court Summoners watching, the Taiyuan Castle collapsed inch by inch.

No one rushed out, and some parts of the castle were already aflame.

The firelight, like a ghost in the dark night, looked horrifying.

The Third Main Summoner patiently waited; by dawn, the castle should completely collapse.

The mages and martial artists inside should now be in a bloody battle with the twenty Purple Gold statues.

The shattered stone walls and ferocious beasts transformed the entire Demon Beast Corridor into a blood-soaked path, filled with the pungent scent of blood.

In Taiyuan Castle, as the magic array shattered, Yun Sheng unexpectedly fell into the magic array.

In an instant, Yun Sheng was dragged downward by an unknown attribute of magic power.

She tried to use Magic Wings to escape this magic power.

But regardless of how Yun Sheng chanted or used her Magic Soul, her body continued to fall.

It was as if she was falling into a boundless hell.

Darkness, endless darkness, without a trace of light.

All she felt around her was the biting cold wind.

Her body kept falling, and amidst the wind, she heard that familiar voice once more.

"You’re here--"

"Here---"

"Save us---"

Suddenly alert, save us?

Her initial fear slowly receded, and Yun Sheng blurted out: "You all? Who are you, calling me?"

When she entered Taiyuan Castle, Yun Sheng had heard an unfamiliar voice.

Now, she heard it again.

This voice sounded mournful, fearful, yet tinged with despair.

"I... am Taiyuan..."

"!"

Just as Yun Sheng was about to ask more, a powerful force struck.

She felt herself falling into a wide embrace.
