This is truly being driven mad.

Li Yun did not hesitate, decisively taking action, he struck Zhang Ruohan's neck with a palm strike, knocking her unconscious.

Then he brought her into the Heaven Origin Ring space.

However, the situation was beyond Li Yun's expectation; he had originally thought that by using the Heaven Origin Ring space to isolate the influence of the bell sound, Zhang Ruohan would return to normal.

But after waking her, she was still driven mad.

Her eyes were as red as a rabbit's, her face contorted, as if she saw Li Yun as an enemy, and she attacked Li Yun madly.

Helplessly.

Li Yun had no choice but to knock her unconscious again.

He instructed Blackie and Little Green to watch over her, while he himself returned to the forest, preparing to investigate the source of the bell sound.

But who knew, the moment he came out, the bell sound disappeared.

Li Yun was so angry he gnashed his teeth, almost losing his composure.

Having no other choice, he could only continue to move towards the west side of the forest.

But this time, Li Yun went with a heart full of anger.

Damn it, that sudden, nonsensical bell sound attack appeared out of nowhere. If he hadn't just found Zhang Ruohan, wouldn't she have been finished?

As Li Yun continued westward.

He saw more Martial Artists, but their condition was clearly not good.

Each one was driven mad like a walking corpse, all rushing towards the west side of the forest; not a single one was clear-headed.

Li Yun immediately realized that something was not right with this situation.

He didn't know where the bell sound was coming from, but it looked like it was trying to attract all the Martial Artists in the forest in one go.

What is it trying to do?

Catch them all in one net?

Thinking of this, Li Yun quickly increased his speed.

Soon.

An ancient temple in the forest came into his view.

Large numbers of Martial Artists, like walking corpses, swarmed towards the ancient temple, surging into the open gate of the ancient temple like a tidal wave.

Soon, roars like those of mad beasts echoed within the ancient temple.

A thick smell of blood drifted out from the ancient temple.

Undoubtedly, after a large number of Martial Artists surged into the ancient temple, a rather brutal slaughter had already broken out.

"Li Yun..."

Suddenly, an exclamation came.

Li Yun turned his head, looked towards a corner in the forest, and his expression changed instantly.

At this moment, Zhao Ziyue was continuously unleashing martial arts to attack Ye Tianxie, and Ye Tianxie had clearly also been driven mad; he didn't know who Zhao Ziyue was at all, and kept swinging his saber at Zhao Ziyue, attempting to get past Zhao Ziyue and rush into the ancient temple.

Zhao Ziyue was clearly struggling a bit.

It wasn't that her strength was inferior to Ye Tianxie's; in fact, Li Yun had already seen that Zhao Ziyue, relying on a peculiar palm technique, was continuously producing crescent moon illusions, and had already formed a Martial Dao Domain.

Based on this alone, Zhao Ziyue's strength was already above Ye Tianxie's.

But precisely because her strength was above Ye Tianxie's, she was worried about injuring Ye Tianxie and couldn't go all out. Coupled with Ye Tianxie's reliance on his sinister saber technique, his movements were erratic and extremely strange.

This made it difficult for Zhao Ziyue to easily stop Ye Tianxie.

"I'll do it!"

Li Yun did not hesitate, his body moved, and he immediately shifted over.

One Element Shaking the World Fist!

He didn't hold back like Zhao Ziyue; while Ye Tianxie was affected by Zhao Ziyue's Martial Dao Domain, he fiercely struck Ye Tianxie's chest.

Directly sending Ye Tianxie flying.

Then he leaped up and knocked him unconscious.

Seeing that Li Yun had dealt with Ye Tianxie, Zhao Ziyue also breathed a sigh of relief, and caught up, saying, "It's great to see you. That bell sound just now was too bizarre; it didn't just shake the Innate True Qi, but also impacted the spirit, possessing great seductive power. Fortunately, my spiritual Realm reached the level of Concentration and Stillness, otherwise I would have been in trouble..."

"But now that the situation has become so strange, I'm afraid we can't just stand by and do nothing."

Zhao Ziyue was a little worried.

If so many Martial Artists surged into the ancient temple and fell into the trap and were killed, it would be a huge loss for Mystic Moon Kingdom.

"You want me to stop them from entering the ancient temple?"

Li Yun understood Zhao Ziyue's meaning.

Zhao Ziyue asked, full of hope, "Can you?"

Li Yun smiled faintly, "Whether I can or not is one thing, but many of these Martial Artists are not Imperial Court Martial Artists, but come from various forces within the Twelve Prefectures of Mystic Moon Kingdom. If they all perish, wouldn't it be more beneficial to the Imperial Court? Why do you want to stop them?"

Zhao Ziyue shook her head.

"You are wrong!"

"Although these Martial Artists are not Imperial Court Martial Artists, they are all people of Mystic Moon Kingdom."

"The Imperial Court and they complement each other, like two sides of the same coin. Relying solely on the Imperial Court, Mystic Moon Kingdom can never become strong."

"If they all die here, the future Mystic Moon Kingdom will inevitably face a Martial Dao gap lasting for decades. Without these powerful Transcendent Realm experts, where will the Celestial Supreme come from?"

Li Yun nodded, "Alright, I understand what you mean. I'll give it a try."

The next second.

Li Yun flashed away, appearing horizontally a mere hundred meters in front of the ancient temple. His ancient sword swept across the air, the sword light flashed, transforming into a heavy mountain that descended.

Instantly, an incredibly heavy Sword Domain formed.

It enveloped all the Martial Artists within a radius of several tens of meters. The power of the heavy mountain's suppression immediately caused the maddened Martial Artists to lose their balance, and they fell to the ground one after another while in their frenzy.

But there were too many maddened Martial Artists.

Li Yun couldn't kill them; merely suppressing an area was completely insufficient to resist the continuous charge of the subsequent swarming Martial Artists.

Li Yun furrowed his brows.

The sword light in his hand flashed, and the sword technique instantly transformed into the Sorrowful Wind Sword Technique.

A even more mysterious Sword Domain transformed into a fierce wind and rolled back towards the forest. The gale wind roared, and the maddened Martial Artists instantly fell into deep sorrow.

Many Martial Artists with lower cultivation and weaker spiritual Realms actually started wailing loudly. As they cried, they even cried themselves unconscious.

"Huh?"

Seeing this, Li Yun was immediately overjoyed.

He suddenly understood.

The reason these Martial Artists were driven mad was entirely because their spirits were seduced by the bell sound, causing them to lose their senses. And his Sorrowful Wind Sword Technique itself contained a power of sorrow, which, in the end, was also a form of spiritual attack.

This was equivalent to using poison to fight poison.

It caused these Martial Artists to suffer two types of spiritual attacks, the bell sound and the Sorrowful Wind Sword Technique, in a short period. Those with weaker spirits were somewhat overloaded and naturally fainted.

Fainting is perfect; it prevents them from rushing into the ancient temple one by one, not knowing what's coming.

Inspired, Li Yun swung his precious sword again, each strike carrying the roar of the gale wind. He swung in all directions, drawing one maddened Martial Artist after another into the Sword Domain.

He quickly suppressed the frenzied rush of those Martial Artists.

But just as the situation was about to be controlled by Li Yun, a roar suddenly came from within the ancient temple.

"Bastard!"

"How dare you ruin my plans!"

The next second, the clanging bell sound actually rang out from within the ancient temple again, more urgent and fierce than before...
