Chapter 126 Escaping Unscathed (1/2)
The black mist faded from the Spirit Devouring Tower.
Numerous figures blankly stared at their surroundings, evidently still in the dark about what had happened. However, the battle between Yaoyao's side and the Gu clan was quickly noticed by several individuals, making them start to realise that something was wrong.
Yaoyao's gaze took one quick sweep around the area. Her Spirit began to flicker as a voice suddenly rang out in everyone's ears.
”This is no Spirit Refining Tower but a Spirit Devouring Tower. If you do not want your Spirit to be completely devoured and be used for the Gu clan's cultivation, leave quickly!”
The moment these words were heard, the expression of countless people turned aghast with horror.
”What? Not a Spirit Refining Tower but a Spirit Devouring Tower?”
”But why do I feel that my Spirit cultivation has improved?”
”EH? Someone died here? Why is his Spirit gone?!”
”Just what exactly happened here?!”
”......”
Cries of alarm rang out one after another. Although Yaoyao's words were shocking, there were still some who felt that something was fishy about the situation and began to withdraw one by one with the intent of leaving the tower.
”Little b.i.t.c.h!”
Upon seeing this, Gu Qiu was so infuriated that his eyes turned red. News would definitely spread once these people left. When that happened, information of how the Gu clan had been strengthening their Spirit would surely be leaked. One could easily imagine what a devastating blow this would be to the prestige of the Gu clan, and how it would even create numerous enemies for them.
In his rage, Gu Qiu icily commanded, ”Call everyone here. I will make them pay today!”
One of the elders immediately nodded and retrieved a black whistle. A peculiar sound spread, instantly notifying every expert of the Gu clan, causing them to hurriedly flood towards the Spirit Devouring Tower.
”Spirit Link!”
Gu Qiu's eyes were cold and ruthless as he looked towards the two elders.
The two elders hesitated for a moment. Spirit Link was a secret technique of their Gu clan that gathered the Spirits of several people to perform combined attacks. However, the repercussions were not small, and negligence would lead to hurting one's Spirit.
However, they quickly nodded in acknowledgement, swiftly appearing behind Gu Qiu and placing their hands on his shoulders. Their Spirits flickered between their brows as Spirit energy flooded into Gu Qiu's body.
Light began to rise from between Gu Qiu's brows, his Spirit power rapidly rising.
Rumble!
An invisible ripple swept outwards. Although not as striking as Genesis Qi, invisible Spirit attacks could take one's life without drawing a single drop of blood.
Roar!
Tuntun's and the ice bird's t.i.tanic bodies jerked back as they howled, their Beast Spirits affected by the invisible ripple. Vigilance immediately surfaced within their eyes. Though their bodies were tough, Spirit waves could ignore the body and directly attack their Spirits.
Yaoyao's Spirit flickered as she extended a hand. ”Spirit s.h.i.+eld!”
A transparent s.h.i.+eld of light appeared in front of here, blocking the Spirit wave. However, the surface of the s.h.i.+eld rippled violently, a clear indicator that it would not last for long.
The gathered power of three Spirits had greatly amplified Gu Qiu's Spirit cultivation.
”Big sis, things aren't looking good.” Said Luluo in a soft voice. This was after all the Gu clan's territory, and many experts were rus.h.i.+ng over each second. If they were surrounded, the situation would become extremely dire.
Yaoyao gave a slight nod and said, ”Prepare to break out.”
Their goal had already been reached. There was no need to waste any more time here.
