"Hurry, leave me alone!" Ye Lang was not very polite to Zhen Xiaoyan, he had driven her away before, how could he be gentle with her now.
And Ye Lang couldn't help but wonder why Zhen Xiaoyan's words felt a bit strange. Clearly, he had wanted to make her his cook, but now it felt as if he must eat her cooking and never escape?
What was going on?
Ye Lang was a bit puzzled, but he didn't have time to think about it right now, so he quickly set it aside.
"Little Seven, why aren't you saying anything?" At this time, Little Seven did not speak, leaving silently, which seemed strange to Ye Lang.
"What do you want me to say? If I say I want to stay and accompany you, will you agree?" Little Seven said softly, with her head down.
"...you'd better not say it!" Ye Lang responded directly.
"..."
And so, everyone said their goodbyes to Ye Lang, leaving him alone to draw the Alchemy Array on the ground. They ran toward the rear as fast as they could, wanting to break away from within ten miles in the shortest time, which was what Ye Lang wanted and the only thing they could do at the moment.
Ten miles away, everyone turned to look at Ye Lang at the same time, only to see a 20-meter diameter Alchemy Array on the ground where he stood, with various small sub-arrays within it.
At this moment, in different places within the Alchemy Array, there were different magic crystal stones, which were commonly used in Alchemy Arrays to better activate the array!
This Alchemy Array was mysterious and fascinating!
At the same time, the large army behind had already reached Ye Lang, the distance between them was just ten miles, yet they did not approach Ye Lang, but maintained a considerable distance.
The army surrounded Ye Lang like water surrounding a stone, and of course, the people on the side continued to move forward, pursuing!
It is absolutely unwise to approach an alchemist, especially one within an alchemy formation, even if one does not know who Ye Lang is, pursuers would not come near, let alone those who know.
"Thirteenth, long time no see. You might as well surrender. We will guarantee your safety and the empress won't harm you!"
To his surprise, among the leaders, there was actually someone who knew Ye Lang quite well, or rather, Ye Lang knew him well, but Ye Lang himself did not know who he was!
And from what he understood from this conversation, he would not allow Ye Lang to be killed by Zhao Yarou, and it seemed that Ye Lang had quite a good reputation.
In fact, even if Ye Lang was captured this time, nothing would happen. Many would protect him, and this might be something that many, including Zhao Yarou, could not have imagined. She would not have expected that Ye Lang would have such high support, and so many people would defend him, even if he no longer had power and might, even if he had made mistakes.
"I believe in you, but I don't believe that crazy woman. She is capable of doing anything! Okay, now that you're all within the range, I'm sorry to say that you can stay in the formation for a while!" After Ye Lang finished speaking, he placed his hands on the ground...
Ye Lang's hands began to glow, and with it, the alchemy formation also started to light up, with Ye Lang's hands as the center, the light spread across the formation, illuminating the entire area.
Soon, as the entire alchemy formation lit up, the light began to seep out in a very regular manner, expanding outward, like drawing an alchemy formation, turning the entire ground into a gigantic alchemy formation, which swallowed all the soldiers within a radius of ten miles.
"Ah..."
"What's this?"
The soldiers began to panic. This was something they had never seen before, and when people see something unusual, they naturally feel fear, especially when they were in the midst of such an unusual phenomenon.
"Rise!"
At Ye Lang's command, the light grew brighter, blinding even...
After the intense light, the earth began to tremble, and then walls and mounds of earth rose from the ground...
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
The soldiers were thrown into disarray by the sudden emergence of walls and mounds of earth, and what frightened them was that behind these earth walls and mounds, there could be even more terrifying things which would trap them in an unescapable abyss of fear!
However, to everyone's surprise, after these earth walls and mounds, nothing happened. If anything, it was the fact that the ground continued to grow new earth walls!
It seemed that this was all Ye Lang could manage on his own.
Nevertheless, even so, everyone admired Ye Lang's alchemical prowess, as he had single-handedly affected the ground for miles, which was frightening!
Could it be that Ye Lang really had limited power and could not achieve what he wanted?
No, absolutely not. He would not underestimate his own abilities or attempt to do something beyond his capacity!
This was the result he was aiming for!!
The soldiers who had been assembled began to chase after them again, attempting to move through the earth walls and mounds in the direction they wanted to go, circumventing any new obstacles they encountered.
However, although they proceeded, they could not break free!
Later, some people thought that perhaps Ye Lang was constructing a maze, so they went straight through the walls. However, after breaking through the walls, they found themselves in another world, a realm from which they could never escape!
What was this? The situation seemed somewhat similar to Zhuge Kongming's Nine Palace Eight Trigrams Formation, a formation that rendered tens of thousands of soldiers helpless.
Yes, it was a formation from the Eight Trigrams of qimen dunjia, trapping people without any intention to kill!
Don't forget, Ye Lang was not just a pure alchemist; he had long since combined qimen dunjia with alchemy, or it could be said that he had interwoven alchemy into qimen dunjia.
By using alchemy to change the environment, he could directly present a formation!
At the same time, alchemy had an advantage, which was better control of a formation, being able to alter it according to one's wishes, although this required a prerequisite, that you yourself had the strength to initiate it!
Now, Ye Lang was at the center of the formation, controlling it, while also protecting the formation's core from being destroyed. He was slowly swallowing up the massive chasing army, possibly creating a new legend, of single-handedly holding back tens of thousands of troops, well, or maybe not that many.
