Chapter 269
Gu Shihan waved his hand and sent Xingbai to the white side. With the existence of the bead, Xingbai flashed and disappeared in the white mist.
Gu Shihan and his companions launched an operation against the mysterious black fog in the small tower without hesitation.
However, when they moved, they were shocked to find that the road inside was as complicated as a maze!
The few people who were walking side by side just now were lost in the endless forking roads in an instant and lost contact with each other.
Although everyone was inevitably a little anxious, they were all experienced and battle-hardened people after all, so they quickly calmed down after a while.
Gu Shihan made a prompt decision and ordered Yu Tong beside him to use the power of fire to open up a path forward. Yu Tong shouted softly, waved her hands, and blazing flames gushed out, like a ferocious fire dragon rushing forward, burning a passage.
Gu Shihan himself used his light-guiding spiritual power to sweep the rear and purify the wandering black mist one by one.
The other teammates were equally unwilling to be outdone, and they all worked closely with their contracted beasts. Some relied on their powerful strength to attack the dense black fog, while others skillfully cast spells, causing flashes of lightning to shatter the black fog.
In an instant, the entire tower was filled with flames shooting up into the sky, and all kinds of shrill howling sounds rang out one after another.
With everyone working together, the purification work was carried out in an orderly manner. Gradually, the thick black fog that originally filled the tower began to dissipate slowly, and the vision became clearer.
But at this moment, there was a sudden loud commotion outside the tower.
Everyone's heart sank, thinking something was wrong. It turned out that the demons had noticed the unusual movement in the small tower, and a large number of demon soldiers were rushing towards here aggressively.
Gu Shihan and the others were well aware that the current situation was extremely critical. If the demons discovered that they were purifying the crucial bead here, all their previous efforts would be wasted.
At this moment they were scattered in various corners of the tower, and it was not easy to gather together immediately.
Time is of the essence, and every second that passes could lead to disastrous consequences...
At this critical moment, Xing Bai's clear and firm voice suddenly rang out in the depths of Gu Shihan's mind: "Hanhan, I'm about to succeed! I'm going to send you out of this tower now. You must do everything you can to hold back those damn demons. I will come to support you as quickly as possible with the purified beads!"
Hearing Xing Bai's words, Gu Shihan did not hesitate at all and immediately responded decisively: "Okay! We must stick to it to the end!"
Xing Bai used the great teleportation method that he had just inherited to safely send Gu Shihan and others out of the small and exquisite but mysterious pagoda from a specific direction.
In an instant, nine people and Yutong's nine beasts fell from the sky and smashed straight to the ground with fierce momentum.
This sudden scene caused the many demon soldiers who were originally on high alert to fall into panic in an instant. They looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what to do.
Gu Shihan and the others would not miss this great opportunity. They showed no mercy, and all kinds of gorgeous and dazzling spells bloomed like fireworks, with colorful lights interweaving together to form a beautiful yet lethal picture.
The available formation plates in their hands were also thrown out one after another, flashing strange light in the air and releasing powerful energy fluctuations.
For a moment, the attacking demon soldiers were dizzy and completely confused.
The coordination among the people was perfect, and they were in perfect sync with each other. Some were responsible for attracting the attention of the demon soldiers, some took the opportunity to launch a fatal attack, and some cleverly arranged the formation to restrict the enemy's actions.
In this way, relying on the excellent team cooperation ability, the pace of the demon soldiers approaching the small tower was slowed down, and the fierce offensive of the opponent was temporarily resisted.
However, the demons were not vegetarians after all. At the beginning, the demon soldiers did look a little embarrassed because they were caught off guard by the endless attacks of Gu Shihan and others.
But as time went on, these battle-hardened demons gradually came to their senses, began to calmly analyze the situation and adjust their strategies and tactics.
Gradually, they took a cautious and steady approach to move forward, gradually compressing the space for Gu Shihan's side to move.
Seeing that the situation was becoming more and more critical and the defense line could collapse at any time, beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on everyone's forehead and they secretly groaned in their hearts.
At this critical moment, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in front of everyone like a god-like soldier from heaven—it was Xing Bai! He was holding the bead that emitted pure light, and the whole person seemed to be bathed in a layer of holy light.
The beads released powerful light power, which drove back the demon soldiers one after another.
"Hanhan, this thing is the small tower, take it. I will go into the space first to prepare enough things for you. This thing entering the space will definitely trigger the space upgrade. The space will be closed at that time. By the way, during the space upgrade, Yutong can only follow you, and I can no longer help you, so be careful."
"Okay, I understand! Xingbai, congratulations!" Gu Shihan said with a smile.
Gu Shihan reached out and took the small and exquisite five-colored jade. When his fingertips touched the jade, a warm feeling came from his palm, as if this small piece of jade contained endless energy.
Although the demon soldiers had been temporarily repelled, they were still watching the situation here with a covetous eye not far away.
Xingbai turned into a dazzling stream of light and quickly penetrated into the mysterious space like a meteor, disappearing without a trace.
People around gathered around, their eyes full of curiosity and anticipation, staring closely at the small piece of jade in Gu Shihan's hand.
Gu Shihan took a deep breath, slowly mobilized a trace of weak spiritual power in his body, and carefully injected it into the small tower.
In an instant, the small piece of jade seemed to be stimulated by some magical power. It suddenly began to expand rapidly inside and became extremely huge in the blink of an eye.
At the same time, a powerful repulsive force burst out from the inside of the small jade block, like an invisible vortex, pushing the demon soldiers who were eyeing them covetously far away, and a faint mist separated the two sides.
"Shi Han, what happened?" Duan Siqi and others were surprised to find that the space here had undergone earth-shaking changes.
"This is because the small tower has triggered its protection mechanism. We are safe for the time being. Everyone should quickly replenish their spiritual power." Gu Shihan instructed.
