Chapter 189
"Sister, are you...are you okay? What the hell is this? You can't even heal the wound or stop the bleeding! It feels like you're here to be tortured." Shi Qinghan looked distressed.
"Brother, it's okay! Let's act quickly. It's a waste if the blood is shed. We might as well use it to complete the mission, right?!" Gu Shihan said with a smile.
"Okay! You still have time to joke, let's act quickly!" Situ Tinglang nodded in response.
The nine people did not hesitate, each brought out their contracted beasts, and everyone worked together. Blood continued to drip until the stone nest was full.
The stone platform slowly rotated again, and Gu Shihan and his companions as well as the contracted beasts all became dazed and passed out.
Although the stone nest looks small, it requires a lot of blood.
As soon as their blood entered the stone nest, they felt a suction force, as if it was going to drain all the blood from their bodies, and they couldn't suck it back even if they wanted to.
There was more and more blood in the stone nest, and colorful light rose slowly. Gu Shihan and the others fell into a coma completely. What they didn't know was that the moment the colorful light rose, it seemed that some light was reflected and fell on the unconscious people.
When Gu Shihan woke up slowly, all the injuries on his body had healed. In less than twenty breaths, everyone woke up one after another and checked their bodies in surprise.
"It's amazing! All my injuries are healed." Wen Xin waved her arms.
"My injuries have healed, there's not even a wound left! I'm full of strength now." Mo Jian also said with a smile.
"Altar, look at the star stone, it has merged into one piece!" Gu Jiahui exclaimed, interrupting everyone's gaze from checking the body.
"Have I completed the task? That's great!" Duan Siqi asked curiously.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at each other. However, before they could celebrate, the air around them suddenly became bone-chillingly cold. The sky was covered with dark clouds and there were faint flashes of lightning.
"What's going on? Is there another crisis?" Situ Tinglang became alert.
At this time, a man in a black robe slowly appeared, and his cold voice echoed in the air: "Little guy! Do you think you can fuse the star stones so easily? Dream on!"
Mo Yu stepped forward and asked, "Who are you?"
The black-robed man sneered, "I am the Dark Messenger. The Star Stone should not exist. You overestimated your own abilities. The entire spirit world will soon be back in the hands of the Lord. You have ruined the good deeds of this Messenger. You all deserve to die!"
Gu Shihan held the jade flute tightly. She now knew the wonderful use of her flute sound: "No matter who you are, no matter what your master is, we will not let you succeed."
The Dark Messenger waved his hands, and countless shadow creatures pounced towards the crowd.
Mo Yu and others quickly formed a circle with their backs to each other, ready to fight.
The nine people each used unique tactics and worked together to fight against the shadow creatures, gradually gaining the upper hand.
Upon seeing this, the Dark Messenger joined the battle himself. He was very powerful and injured some people with just a few moves.
Just when everyone was feeling exhausted, Gu Shihan started playing the jade flute.
A melodious flute sounded, and several people who had been seriously injured and fallen to the ground seemed to have received a supply of strength, and they all burst out with powerful power.
The contracted beasts also became full of energy and rushed towards the Dark Messenger. This outburst distracted the Dark Messenger's attention.
Mo Yu took the opportunity to swing his sword, and a dazzling golden light shot towards the dark messenger.
The dark messenger was unable to dodge and staggered back a few steps after being hit.
Several others also seized the opportunity and launched various spells and attacks.
The dark messenger became furious and took out a black magic weapon, instantly releasing an even more powerful shadow force.
But at this moment, the sound of Gu Shihan's jade flute turned passionate, and the contracted beasts seemed to understand something. Their power gradually merged to form a huge shield to protect everyone.
Wen Xin discovered that the Star Stone was absorbing the power of shadow and transforming it into the power of light.
With an idea in her mind, she quietly approached the Star Stone, guiding it to release the power of light to fight back.
The power of light enveloped the Dark Messenger, and he struggled in pain.
The dark messenger gradually weakened under the power of light, but he still fought desperately, chanting evil spells, trying to summon more shadow creatures to rescue him.
As the power of light released by the Star Stone grew stronger, the surrounding shadow creatures were purified and dissipated as soon as they appeared.
Mo Yu seized the opportunity, flew up, pointed his sword at the dark messenger, and the sword was wrapped in golden spiritual power.
He shouted loudly and stabbed the dark messenger with his sword.
At the same time, Gu Shihan stopped playing the jade flute, and a fireball with the destructive power of the red lotus fire rushed towards the dark messenger with all its strength, wrapping him up.
The dark messenger opened his eyes wide in despair. Before he could make a final resistance, Mo Yu's sword pierced his body and then was completely burned by the red lotus fire.
The shadow creatures were leaderless and disappeared completely under the continuous purification of the power of light.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and gathered together to watch the star stone radiate light and spread all around.
"We have finally lived up to the expectations of the venerables. Can we now leave the Tower of Babel?!" Gu Jiahui asked while moving his hands and feet.
The nine people stood up and planned to return the same way, but just as they stood still, the star stone suddenly emitted a dazzling white light, and a dark hole appeared in the white light. A suction force came and the nine people fell into the black hole.
Gu Shihan felt dizzy and when he came to his senses he found himself hanging on a big tree stump. Not far from the stump there was another person, and that person was Duan Siqi.
"Siqi, wake up!" Gu Shihan crawled over and pushed Duan Siqi.
"Ah! My head is so dizzy, Shi Han, it's you! So great!" Duan Siqi looked around and her face quickly fell: "Shi Han, where are we? The spiritual power here seems different! Where are the others?"
"I don't know either. I just woke up. I checked with my spiritual sense, and apart from the two of us, I don't know where anyone else is." Gu Shihan frowned.
Gu Shihan got Xingbai out and said, "Xingbai, we don't know where we are. Go and find out where Big Brother and the others are."
The little white fox's eyes rolled around, and he sniffed, then said, "Hanhan, this is the first level of the fairyland that you cultivators dream of ascending to!"
"How is it possible? We...we are just little Jindan cultivators, how can we come to the fairyland?! Shi Han, is your little fox kidding?" Duan Siqi was so frightened that she almost fell off the tree branch, and said anxiously.
Xing Bai rolled his eyes, "Don't believe it? Do you feel the spirit of the immortals? However, you should first find a place and slowly start practicing from the beginning. Otherwise, with your spiritual power, you will be worse than ordinary people in this immortal world!"
Duan Siqi tried it immediately, and found that she couldn't absorb the so-called immortal spirit with her current cultivation. She raised her hand and chopped a branch at hand.
When he chopped it down with his hand, the branch just shook a few times, without leaving any mark.
