654.6 Star Power
654.6 Star Power
Because the Pill Tower Ancestor appeared, Elder Lin was extremely excited despite being under control. However, upon seeing Ling Haonan's gaze, his initial joy instantly dissipated.
He noticed that Ling Haonan, the Supreme Elder of the Spirit Clan, reacted remarkably calmly to the earth-shattering events of the Pill Tower Ancestor's arrival, the gathering of the three Battle Saints, and the breaking of the spatial blockade. There was no shock or anger, no panic at being caught off guard; his eyes remained calm and serene.
This reaction is completely inappropriate. Has the situation not yet slipped out of the Eldar's control?
When the Dan Tower Ancestor appeared, Ling Haonan and Ling He, who controlled the core area of the Dan Tower headquarters, immediately stood up.
At this moment, Elder Lin felt an unprecedented and terrifying power emanating from Ling Haonan. A tremendous chill instantly rushed into his mind, causing his ecstasy to cool and solidify as if doused with ice water. This dramatic change was firstly due to the shock he felt from Ling Haonan's sudden burst of strength. As the second-in-command of the Pill Tower, even he was not certain that his ancestor could defeat the person before him.
Secondly, he was shocked by Ling Haonan's intentions. He had initially thought that Ling Haonan only possessed the rumored strength of a five-star Dou Sheng. In addition, given Ling Haonan's advanced age and frailty, as well as a well-known hidden ailment, it was highly likely that for his own safety, he could only exert the strength of a four-star Dou Sheng.
Ma Yilin himself was a three-star Dou Sheng, so he always believed that Ling Haonan had to suppress him with all his might, and even needed Ling He's help, to barely control all the experts above the Half-Saint level in the Pill Tower. Later, his conjecture was confirmed, as he realized that Ling Haonan's restraint on him was incomplete, and in the end, he even left himself an opportunity to help Xiao Yan.
But now everything has been overturned by reality. Ling Haonan's current outburst is the full strength of a six-star Dou Sheng!
Ling Haonan, a six-star Dou Sheng, leisurely pretended to use the blood of Dou Di to control all the half-saints and above in the Pill Tower, watching Xuan Leizi and Xiao Yan fight to the death from the sidelines. He was even unwilling to spend a little effort to save Xuan Leizi's life. What exactly did he want to do by holding back his strength?
The more Elder Lin thought about it, the more alarmed he became, because no matter what the Spirit Clan wanted to do, the Pill Tower was in an extremely dangerous position.
At this moment, all he could do was feel alarmed; there was nothing else he could do, and he didn't even want to think about it anymore. If Ling Haonan only had four-star strength, he might have been able to struggle a bit with his methods, but Ling Haonan, a six-star Dou Sheng, wouldn't give him any chance.
At this moment, Ling Haonan's clothes moved without wind, all the feeling of being old and frail disappeared, and a dark red light that could be seen with the naked eye instantly filled his whole body along his meridians, and his blood and energy exploded.
An unprecedented and overwhelming pressure, surpassing everyone present, was like an invisible, towering wave. Ling Haonan's current aura was no weaker than that of the Pill Tower Ancestor!
In truth, a mere peak-grade eighth-rank pill wouldn't have such a powerful effect. The pill merely acted as a catalyst for Ling Haonan's current outburst. It was Ling Haonan's unwavering will to succeed, even at the cost of his life, that enabled him to unleash such terrifying power. He hadn't been recklessly fighting; instead, he had been steadily accumulating strength for this momentous explosion!
"A six-star Dou Sheng? How is that possible?!" Old Ancestor Huoyun's expression changed drastically, his voice filled with disbelief and shock.
"There's no mistake." Mu Yaoyin was blind, but she could sense that Ling Haonan's power was filled with destructive ferocity.
For the first time, a slight hint of surprise appeared on the usually calm and composed face of the Old Ancestor of the Pill Tower. His clear eyes gazed thoughtfully at Ling Haonan.
As Ling Haonan began to move freely, another astonishing spectacle appeared in Saint Pill City.
A colossal rune, over a hundred feet in diameter and so intricate it was dazzling, instantly took shape and burst forth beneath the feet of the three powerful Dou Sheng. The rune's texture was ancient and vast, each stroke seemingly containing terrifying laws that could seal the heavens and earth and prohibit all laws.
The source of this giant rune was right beneath Ling Haonan's feet. It was created by the combined power of his and Ling He's battle qi. It was a giant rune that was even intended to control the Pill Tower Ancestor!
What's most peculiar is that the pillars of light that trapped the nine powerful figures of the Pill Tower were formed by a small rune, differing only in size from the enormous rune; otherwise, they were identical. Their source was also exactly the same: the battle energy released by Ling Haonan and Ling He.
Now the truth is out!
The restrictive light pillars that trapped the nine top experts of the Pill Tower were not the main body at all. They were merely nine sub-nodes extending from the super Heaven-Sealing and Saint-Locking Array that covered the entire city and was personally controlled by Ling Haonan! They were just sub-arrays growing from the massive root system of this mother array. Most of the power that Ling Haonan had previously reserved was poured into this deeply hidden core mother array!
The moment the massive mother formation fully awakened, a terrifying roar, like a primordial beast breaking free from its restraints, erupted from beneath Saint Pill City. Thick, liquid battle energy surged within the formation. Compared to this, the tremor caused by Mu Yaoyin breaking the spatial seal was like a stream compared to a tsunami!
The Pill Tower Ancestor, Mu Yaoyin, and the Fire Cloud Ancestor were all at the center of the mother formation. The viscous, liquid battle qi, almost like a living thing, transformed into countless writhing chains, carrying an aura of annihilation, surging in from all directions!
Faced with this sudden and deadly trap, the three Battle Saints reacted with lightning speed, each displaying the powerful nature and profound strength of a Battle Saint.
The wide, plain sleeves drew a smooth arc in the viscous space, and a pure, gentle fighting spirit containing the power of spatial teleportation silently emerged, precisely enveloping Mu Wei, who was closest to her.
"Go and help the young master!" Mu Yaoyin's final instruction was just this brief sentence.
The crimson flames, carrying extreme heat capable of incinerating everything, burst forth. Instead of spreading randomly, they coalesced into a massive pillar of lava, as thick as a mountain, and slammed into a corner of the rune that appeared to be a flow of energy.
Only the boy in green robes, seeing everything before him, neither flinched nor avoided. He simply patted the green ox beneath him with his delicate, jade-like hand, after which the ox let out a deafening roar, the sound waves of which were no less powerful than a full-force attack from a Dou Sheng expert.
Space shattered, and the galaxy seemed to turn upside down.
The child's fingertips lightly caressed the bamboo flute, and the clear flute sound spread out with the dual impact of fighting spirit and soul power, causing the light of the great array to begin to surge rapidly.
