"What exactly happened?" Zu An asked anxiously.
Hei Jingteng sighed softly, "We were just struck by that being. It was only thanks to the protection of the great formation that we were not completely destroyed on the spot. But how powerful was that attack? It's a miracle that we were able to hold on until now."
Seeing the flickering light on their bodies, Zu'an's heart sank. He had already used up his freeloader skills, and using the key to save them would probably kill him...
He suddenly looked up at the demon-suppressing talisman in the sky: "Can you enter the talisman to recuperate? You all come from the same source. Now that the talisman has recovered to its peak, it should not need to destroy your minds to recover."
Hei Jingteng shook his head slightly: "No, I just tried it. Although they are both demon-suppressing talismans, this talisman is practically brand new and doesn't recognize us as artifact spirits."
“Of course, we come from the same source. If we spend more time getting closer to it, we should be able to re-enter its body. But given our current situation, I'm afraid we can't wait that long.” Hei Jingteng said with some annoyance.
Zuan's face turned pale: "I never thought that keeping her would actually harm her."
Hei Jingteng waved his hand: "If you hadn't stayed behind, we would have been driven to our deaths long ago. At least we still have a breath left to speak."
Zuan knew she was telling the truth, but he couldn't feel happy at all.
He hurriedly found some healing elixirs and handed them to the other party, but Hei Jingteng shook his head after glancing at them: "That being's attack level is too high, these healing elixirs have no effect whatsoever."
Various incomprehensible destructive forces were constantly collapsing within their bodies. If they hadn't been spirits of divine runes, already extraordinary, they would probably have perished on the spot.
Zuan was somewhat bewildered. Was he just supposed to watch Jing Teng die?
At that moment, a ghostly figure appeared from the side: "Are you really stupid or just pretending?"
Upon seeing the red figure appear beside him, Hei Jingteng was startled: "What kind of demon are you?"
The only beings that could appear here besides them are demons, but what kind of demons are so beautiful and charming?
She was racking her brains trying to figure out which of the demons on each level was closest to this image when Mi Li said irritably, "I am his master."
Her soul was bound to that of Zuan, so she could now resist the pressure of the demon-suppressing formation.
"Master?" Hei Jingteng was startled. Seeing Zu An nod, he couldn't help but feel respect. "So you are a senior. It's truly admirable that you can teach such a disciple. I wonder what your cultivation level is?"
Mi Li rolled her eyes and ignored her.
Zu'an then pressed on, "Empress Master, what did you mean by what you just said?"
Mi Li said with a half-smile, "Have you forgotten that your Primordial Chaos Scripture can also save people?"
Zuan seemed to have thought of something, his face flushed, but he still shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that won't work. That being is at too high a level. How can the injuries he caused be repaired?"
"High level, huh?" Mi Li snorted. "The cultivation techniques you possess are not low level either. In the end, it's just that you're too weak. If you were strong enough, you could definitely save her with those techniques."
Zuan remained silent. He originally thought he was quite good, having grown to this level in just two or three years of cultivation.
But after confronting these terrifying beings today, he realized how ignorant he was.
"Don't worry, although the method you're using now can't fully heal their injuries, it should be able to stabilize them and keep them alive for the time being. We can look for other ways to save them later," Mi Li said.
At this moment, Hei Jingteng couldn't help but ask, "What kind of riddle are you playing? If you have a method, hurry up and treat him!"
Zuan was a little embarrassed: "That method is a bit... a bit... you should send your sister out instead."
"Why did you only save her after my sister came out?" Hei Jingteng looked at him with dissatisfaction. "Isn't my sister-in-law's life a life too?"
Zuan: "..."
That method is really not suitable for you.
"How am I supposed to know if it's suitable if you don't tell me?" Hei Jingteng said impatiently. "Why is the man my sister has her eye on so indecisive?"
Zuan: "..."
"Wake your sister up first, then I'll tell you all at once."
Hei Jingteng shook his head: "I can't wake her up. My sister took more of the attack earlier. Strictly speaking, she protected me, but even so, that being's attack was too strong. I am still seriously injured and on the verge of death. At most, I will live a little longer than my sister."
"My sister is now in a deep coma, barely clinging to life, and I'm afraid she won't wake up."
Zu An's expression changed, and he dared not delay any longer. He hurriedly explained the method of saving people using the Hongmeng Yuanshi Scripture in a roundabout way.
"It's just mating, why are you making it sound so fancy? Come on," Hei Jingteng said irritably.
Zuan: "???"
Seeing the other person's confident and even somewhat eager demeanor, he couldn't help but ask, "Do you... not understand what I just meant?"
Hei Jingteng snorted: "I have roamed the world for so many years, what haven't I seen? Do you think I'm stupid?"
Seeing the other person's strange expression, she said frankly, "I want to try what my sister has tried. I just saw how happy she was, almost fainting. I have to see if it's really that amazing."
"Besides, this can save lives; only a fool would refuse."
Zuan: "..."
This woman is so carefree and easygoing, she's completely baffled him.
