Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food Chapter 1676 - 1008: Another Awakens
Previously on Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food...
Liang Yuan showed a contemplative expression.
If the Eight-headed Great Serpent is indeed Tu Long, it has been slumbering in magma all these years.
With its Talent Ability, it endured the long era of Spiritual Energy decline.
It wasn’t until now, with the Spiritual Energy Revival, that it awakened once again.
However, with this awakening, it’s clearly unwilling to continue being a mobile power source for the Netherworld.
Thus, it intentionally allowed outsiders to enter the Netherworld, regardless of their power, as long as they entered, they could potentially bring chaos.
"What if this group entering the Netherworld accidentally destroys those chains?"
"Perhaps it could seize the opportunity to escape the chain control of the Netherworld."
Meanwhile, Liang Yuan also roughly understood why, despite the Great Serpent’s powerful Magnetic Field Domain, it had not been rejected by Blue Star.
The reason is perhaps its strength is only temporary.
Once its internal Superpower Energy exceeds a certain level, it will surely be absorbed by the chains, supplying the entire Netherworld.
Therefore, no matter how much the Great Serpent cultivates, it is destined not to break through the Star God Level.
Liang Yuan even suspected that the Great Serpent hadn’t been able to condense a Heart Core and Brain Core due to this reason.
Indeed, the Great Serpent has its own plans to consider.
"Would destroying the altar loosen Tu Long’s seal?"
Liang Yuan looked at the old lady and asked.
The old lady nodded, and said: "Certainly, Tu Long’s seal was personally set by the Blood River Ancestor, not a single detail can be messed up."
"This matter was repeatedly warned to us descendants by the Blood River Ancestor before entering the Starry Sky Galaxy."
"At that time, because of this reason, we sanctified these altars and subterranean chambers, fearing that someone among our descendants might take it lightly."
Now everything makes sense.
Liang Yuan was somewhat troubled, the whole situation seemed caught in a deadlock.
To rescue Ling Yurong and others, there are only two ways, either destroy the altar and damage the transmission channel.
Or go to the Starry Sky Ancient City and subdue those old folks hiding inside.
However, destroying the altar would lead to the loosening of the Great Serpent’s seal, potentially granting it freedom at any time.
And going to the Starry Sky Ancient City, returning in physical form wouldn’t be easy.
The crux is even if left unchecked, these old folks using the altar’s soul channel, continuously escaping from the Starry Sky Ancient City back to the Netherworld, are also consuming Ling Yurong and others’ Spiritual Power.
Until Ling Yurong and others’ Spiritual Power collapses, the soul channel completely breaks, their Soul Bodies would entirely fail to maintain.
That would equate to brain death.
"Is there no other way?"
Liang Yuan furrowed his brow, looking at the old lady, asked: "Is there no possibility of altering the Rune Array on the altar?"
Upon hearing this, the old lady hurriedly said: "Arrays are always the hardest, back then the Netherworld invited many powerful experts just to slowly figure it out."
"Unless you find a top-notch array master, altering the array rashly would only instantly collapse the channel."
"At that time, your friends might be doomed in an instant."
Liang Yuan closed his eyes, quickly thinking of a way to solve this predicament.
However, thinking back and forth, there seemed truly no great solution.
"Looks like I can only check the system for anything usable."
"Now I must either rapidly enhance my strength, first deal with the Great Serpent, then destroy the altar, but this process carries certain risks."
"Destroying the altar might harm Ling Yurong and others’ Spiritual Souls."
"Moreover, these old things are constantly relying on their soul channel to return."
"Right, is there a way to stabilize Ling Yurong and others’ Spiritual Souls, allowing them to hold out longer?"
While Liang Yuan was contemplating, suddenly there was a thumping sound from a coffin in front.
It seemed someone inside had awoken again.
Liang Yuan immediately turned his head to look, Gu Feng and Shi Haizhu also angrily said: "Damn it, it must be the old lady’s accomplice returning from the Starry Sky Ancient City."
"Damn them, if they are still Tu Long’s guys, we will kill them!"
"Aren’t they coming back? Hm, take them down once they return, let them fall after living in hiding for so long!" Shi Haizhu cursed.
Upon hearing this, Liang Yuan’s eyes suddenly lit up with a good idea.
He promptly looked at the old lady, asked: "I ask you, can you return through the soul channel, and also go to the Starry Sky Ancient City?"
The old lady was dumbfounded, hadn’t thought of this.
She hesitated: "Should be possible, though my Spiritual Power is weak now, I might not be able to perform long-distance Spiritual transmission."
Liang Yuan immediately smiled: "Possible is good, no rush."
Liang Yuan then strode toward the noisy coffin.
Gu Feng and Shi Haizhu quickly followed.
With a glance from Liang Yuan, signaling, the two immediately made a move together from both sides.
This time, even Meng Ting didn’t attempt to stop it.
She merely nervously said on the side: "Master, this coffin belongs to the third-generation clan leader of the Ma-face tribe, just one step away from Feathered Ascension."
Liang Yuan nodded slightly, looked at the old lady’s soul, said: "Later, Meng Ting, watch closely, if the person inside abandons the body and tries to escape, intercept immediately."
"Understood."
"Yes, Master."
Both nodded immediately.
At this moment, Gu Feng and Shi Haizhu finally pried open the coffin lid.
With a bang, the coffin lid flew up.
Immediately, a robust body with a horse face sat up abruptly.
His bell-like eyes opened, looked to both sides, spoke: "Are you the ones guarding the subterranean chamber?"
Shi Haizhu suddenly shouted: "Guard your damn chamber!"
He stepped forward with a fierce punch!
At the moment of punching, it already transformed into a gigantic stone.
Bang!
The stone struck the horse face, which didn’t react, and the entire body was hammered out of the coffin lid.
Before the horse face could come to sense, he felt a sudden thump on the forehead, as if someone had slapped him.
Next moment, a Soul Imprisonment Rune directly entered his consciousness.
"You——uh!"
The horse face was briefly stunned, then his expression shifted dramatically, eventually calming.
He turned to look at the hand behind him.
Liang Yuan looked at him indifferently: "What’s your name?"
"Master above, this old servant is Ma Ning, clan leader of the third generation of Ma-face tribe."
Liang Yuan was surprised: "Is this body truly yours?"
"Dare not deceive the Master, it is indeed."
"Where did you come from?"
Liang Yuan repeated the question previously asked to the old lady.
The answer was the same.
Ma Ning of the Ma-face tribe also maintained a bit of spirit by devouring others’ Spiritual Souls, surviving till today.
It wasn’t until the Spiritual Energy Revival that they gradually began to recover.
Ling Yurong and others accidentally activated the altar’s soul channel, and these folks frantically sought ways to escape back to the Netherworld.
Only by reclaiming their bodies could they cultivate again.
This Spiritual Energy Revival for them is the best chance to cultivate anew, break through Star God Level, and undergo Feathered Ascension!
