Upon hearing this, Qin Luo looked at her pale face, which was slightly pale due to weakness, and seemed to have thought of something.
Without hesitation, he summoned the Sky-Locking Jade Spear in his hand.
The spear emitted a cold, blue light, streaking through the air before hovering steadily in front of Su Yaoyue.
Qin Luo said softly:
"Senior Su, don't worry. This is a low-grade divine artifact. With its protection, you will definitely be able to leave safely."
After speaking, Qin Luo stretched out his finger and gently touched Su Yaoyue's forehead, and an exit landmark mark that shimmered with a faint light slowly appeared.
This mark contains a partial map of the ruins, which can guide Su Yaoyue along the safest and fastest path to the outside of the ruins.
After Qin Luo finished doing all this, he didn't dare to delay for a moment. His figure instantly transformed into a streak of light and sped away, leaving Su Yaoyue still stunned in place, not yet able to recover from the landmark mark on her forehead.
After regaining her senses, Su Yaoyue stared at the long spear in front of her, stomped her foot hard, and scolded:
"It's not that I'm afraid to go alone, it's just that I'm worried you might encounter some misfortune. This ruin is eerie everywhere. What if you get into trouble if you go alone?"
As she spoke, the little spiritual energy within her body surged forth, attempting to catch up with Qin Luo, but the Azure Jade Spear that Locked the Sky flashed with azure light, blocking her way, its shaft trembling.
Su Yaoyue reached out to try and push the spear away, but the spear seemed to be rooted to the spot, not moving an inch, and a soft blue light gently pushed her backward.
This left her helpless, and she could only watch helplessly as Qin Luo disappeared, her eyes filled with anxiety.
"Hmph, you dare to underestimate me like this? Do you really want me to leave? Do you think my late-stage Soul Separation Realm cultivation is a burden to you?"
Su Yaoyue grumbled angrily, though she felt resentful, she also understood Qin Luo's good intentions.
After a moment, he sighed helplessly and turned to look at the Sky-Locking Azure Jade Spear in his hand:
"Fine, I'll grant your request this once. I'll go back inside to get reinforcements. I hope you can find Wu Changkong and Xiao Ming successfully."
After saying this, he sighed, composed himself, and followed the guidance of the landmark mark on his forehead, flying at full speed towards the exit of the ruins, being cautious along the way and constantly on guard against any potential dangers.
At this moment, Qin Luo was moving swiftly through the ruins, not looking for Wu Changkong and Xiao Ming. Instead, he rushed straight towards the main hall in the center of the ruins, which was broken in two and in a state of disrepair.
The reason is that with the strength of Wu Changkong and Xiao Ming, he doesn't need to worry too much. In the simulation, they always successfully defeated their opponents and obtained the other two fragments of divine soul.
However, the variables in the simulation always seem to appear in the lives of Su Yaoyue and Feng Zhiyu.
Whenever he rushed to the final main hall, what he saw was Wu Changkong and Xiao Ming in a fierce battle with Su Yaoyue and Feng Zhiyu, who were already dead but were being controlled.
This delay gave the Blood Fiend Cult an opportunity to finally awaken the extraterrestrial gods.
This is why he is racing against time.
Upon arriving at the main hall, one sees that the hall appears to have suffered a cataclysmic disaster, with the dome broken in the middle, one half teetering on the verge of collapse, and the other half already crumbling to the ground.
The walls were crisscrossed with cracks, resembling a grotesque giant net. Many of the stone pillars inside the hall were also broken, and thick dust filled the ruins.
Hearing the sounds of fighting coming from inside, Qin Luo sighed inwardly, realizing that a lot of time had indeed been wasted on Su Yaoyue's side.
With a flash, he stepped into the hall and saw Feng Zhiyu, whose eyes were empty and unfocused, frantically attacking Wu Changkong and Xiao Ming like a puppet being manipulated.
Xiao Ming lightly tapped his finger, and his hidden sword flashed, carrying powerful spiritual energy, continuously blocking Feng Zhiyu's attacks.
Wu Changkong's palms flew, creating whistling winds and forming defensive barriers around him. However, Feng Zhiyu's attacks were relentless and tireless, making it difficult for the two, who were already holding back, to escape.
Swoosh
When Qin Luo's figure entered the hall, Wu Changkong sighed inwardly and stared at Qin Luo warily. Xiao Ming also stopped what he was doing, concealing his sword in his sleeve, secretly gathering spiritual power, his eyes full of vigilance.
Seeing this, Qin Luo naturally understood their wariness:
"Senior Wu, Senior Xiao, don't worry, I'm not being controlled."
However, Wu Changkong and Xiao Ming still dared not let their guard down. They knew that the Blood Fiend Sect's methods were unpredictable and that if they were not careful, they might end up in a deep slumber here.
Qin Luo didn't explain further, his hands quickly changing hand seals, and in an instant, ripples appeared in the air.
Immediately afterwards, a star radiating purple light streaked across the sky, falling like a meteor.
The dazzling purple light and the fluctuations in spiritual energy instantly alerted Wu Changkong and Xiao Ming, causing their spiritual energy to circulate autonomously as they prepared for battle.
However, to their surprise, the star did not hurtle directly towards them, but instead hurtled towards the floor of the hall with lightning speed, as if it were about to tear a huge chasm in the ground.
"Hmm? An unexpected turn of events..."
At this moment, within the ruins of the palace, a slender figure was hidden in the shadows. As this question arose in his mind, the fingertips in the shadows began to move rapidly, as if controlling a puppet.
In the blink of an eye, Feng Zhiyu, who had been frantically attacking Wu Changkong and Xiao Ming, suddenly turned around and stood directly in front of the fallen purple star. However, his movements were extremely stiff, like a lifeless puppet that could only mechanically execute some kind of command.
boom!
The moment the star made contact with him, it erupted with a blinding purple light and a deafening roar.
But clearly, the thin, frail figure hidden in the shadows overestimated Feng Zhiyu and underestimated Qin Luo.
A towering figure was blasted away, and then the ground inside the palace cracked, with countless cracks spreading rapidly like a spider web, causing the entire palace to shake violently.
As the muffled roar faded, a huge, dark barrier slowly emerged from beneath the cracked ground, with eerie light flickering within and mysterious runes appearing and disappearing.
On the surface of the barrier, a thick aura of blood permeated the air, causing everyone present to feel a suffocating chill that penetrated to their very core.
"This is......"
Upon witnessing this scene, Wu Changkong's expression turned serious. Judging from the density of the blood energy permeating the surface of the barrier, the Blood Fiend Sect had likely brutally slaughtered numerous living beings in order to wear down the barrier. Their ruthless methods were appalling.
Just as the barrier slowly appeared, the thin figure hidden in the shadows couldn't help but mutter a curse:
"Damn it, is this the power that a mere early stage Soul Separation Realm cultivator can produce?"
He never expected that Qin Luo could break through the barrier under his control and Feng Zhiyu's resistance.
