Inside the compound five stars formation.

Ling Xuan, Han Xiaomo, Jiang Xing, and Zhang Jing were all sweating profusely.

Han Xiaomo looked at the huge object outside the rune formation and panicked.

He cursed, “Where the hell did this come from? Why does the Demonic Fiend Ridge have this kind of damn thing? !”

Jiang Xing was also very angry. He cursed, “Could it be that Chen Jiang that son of a b * tch lured it here? !”

Zhang Jing was not in the mood to curse. She just looked nervously in the direction of Ling Xuan and asked loudly, “Ling Xuan, how long can our talisman array last?”

Ling Xuan quickly cast out one talisman array after another and said in a deep voice, “All of you focus. We can naturally last longer that way!”

In fact, he was a little frustrated.

Lu Lin had chased Chen Jiang out just now.

In the end, Chen Jiang had brought such a terrifying big guy, but Lu Lin did not appear.

He could not help but worry: Did something happen to brother Lu?

Otherwise, brother Lu should have come back to report the news by now!

If he had known earlier, he would have stopped him at all costs!

However, it was useless to think about it now.

All Ling Xuan could do was to maintain the talisman array, fight against the demonic skeleton outside, and fight to the death with them!

He said to the others in a deep voice, “The reason why we are still standing here is because brother Lu fought with his life for us! We must not let brother Lu down!”

After he said that, Han Xiaomo, Jiang Xing, and the others also fell silent.

No matter how Lu Lin had schemed against them, at least in terms of the result, they were indeed alive and well because of Lu Lin.

No one could deny this.

After a moment —

“Kill it!”

“I don’t believe it!”

“We definitely can’t die here!”

Everyone burst out with a strong fighting spirit and crazily manipulated the talisman seal to control the talisman array.

Some desperately defended while others crazily counterattacked.

Under the collision of the two sides, waves of violent impact shook the earth in all directions and set off billowing smoke and dust.

At the same time, the talisman array that was on the verge of collapse actually stabilized again.

…

In the distance.

Chen Jiang thought that the demonic skeleton was going to break the talisman array and kill Ling Xuan and the others. He did not expect the runic array to stabilize again in the blink of an eye.

This made him frown. He was a little angry and anxious.

There was not much time left!

According to his estimation, the invigilators were likely to arrive soon!

At that time, if he still could not finish off Ling Xuan and the others, he might not have a chance!

If it was before, he would not mind letting Ling Xuan off temporarily and refine the demon bone first!

However, he had been driven mad by Lu Lin. He had also made such a big fuss, but he still could not finish off Ling Xuan and the others in the end. He was really unwilling.

Just as Chen Jiang was in a dilemma, he suddenly heard movement from afar!

Someone was coming!

Chen Jiang’s expression changed.

He felt that since he had caused a demonic monster riot and basically forced most of the contestants to retreat, the contestants who could still stay in the demonic ridge now were either very strong or extremely lucky.

But no matter which one it was, they should not be near this side!

Then, the only people who were still approaching this side were the invigilators!

At the thought of this, Chen Jiang’s expression quickly changed.

Then, he gritted his teeth and made a decision.

He said to the assassins beside him in a deep voice, “You guys, go and get rid of the people who are close by!”

Those assassins had actually guessed the current situation, but they did not refuse.

After all, the mission they had originally accepted was to solve Chen Jiang’s problems.

However, someone still asked, “Young Master Chen, then this place…”

“I can do it here by myself!”

Chen Jiang waved his hand impatiently.

At this moment, he had actually changed his mind. He planned to change his target and ignore Ling Xuan and the rest for the time being. He would focus on refining the demon bone first!

As long as he could refine the demon bone before the invigilators arrived, then this operation in the Demonic Fiend Ridge would be a huge harvest even if he could not kill Ling Xuan!

As for whether he would be punished for causing so much trouble this time and ruining the preliminaries, he had never been worried about this.

At worst, he could just send more money to the City Lord’s Estate and it would naturally be settled!

As for his Chen family, they had plenty of money!

Soon, the assassins left in a hurry and headed in the direction of the commotion.

Chen Jiang quickly sat cross-legged on the spot and began to set up a complicated talisman array.

This rune array was what he planned to use to refine the demon bone.

Because it was too complicated, even if he had made preparations in advance, it was still very difficult to set up and took a lot of time.

This kind of situation fell into the eyes of Lu Lin, who had just quietly approached him. It made Lu Lin almost laugh out loud.

This Chen Jiang was simply too good!

He was actually so cooperative!

Originally, Lu Lin had planned to ambush Chen Jiang and knock him out after those assassins were drawn away.

Then, while waiting silently for the download to be completed, he thought of ways to trick Ling Xuan into helping him set up the talisman array to refine the demon skeleton.

After all, before he completed the download of the ‘Ling Clan’s Talisman Refinement technique’, he was still just an ordinary beginner talisman refiner!

But who would have thought that Chen Jiang would actually help him set up the refinement talisman array in advance!

In this way, Lu Lin wasn’t in a hurry to make a move.

He was prepared to let Chen Jiang stay awake for a period of time.

When Chen Jiang’s talisman array was almost completed, his download mission was almost done.

At that time, Lu Lin would directly make a move and knock him unconscious before snatching the talisman array he had set up.

Next, he would wake Chen Jiang up and use the talisman array that Chen Jiang had set up to refine the demon skeleton in front of Chen Jiang!

Perfect!

Thus, while the demon skeleton was busy attacking, Ling Xuan and the others were busy defending against the attack. Chen Jiang was busy setting up the talisman array to refine the demon skeleton, and Chu Qingxue was busy dealing with the assassins that she had attracted over. Lu Lin, on the other hand, was extremely relaxed.

He tried his best to conceal his aura and hid behind a pile of rocks near Chen Jiang, silently waiting.

Over an hour had passed as he was waiting!

Lu Lin downloaded a large portion of the Shocking Dragon Palm Technique from the mission.

At the same time, Chen Jiang had finally set up the talisman array that he needed!

He glanced in the direction that the assassins had left, but he didn’t see anyone return.

He didn’t mind, and was just about to activate the array that he had set up around him.

It was also at this moment that Lu Lin finally made his move!
