Inside the tower, the vanished group felt dizzy and disoriented. When their vision cleared again, they found themselves in a strange place.
Here, all you can see is an endless starry sky, but surprisingly, this starry sky is not hanging in the sky, but spread out under your feet, turning into an illusory earth.
Countless spiritual seals floated in the sky.
These spirit seals, each with a different shape, wandered aimlessly through this space, appearing both deathly still and eerily strange.
The leading woman from Luoyan Academy stared in shock at the floating spirit seals around her. Her steps faltered on the starry sky, and with each step, ripples spread across the stars beneath her feet. "What... what is this place?"
She murmured to herself, her voice echoing in the silent space, but there was no response.
The burly man from Tongtian Academy gripped his broadsword tightly. Although the blade was already cracked from the previous cold snap, he still habitually relied on it.
He watched the floating spiritual seals high in the sky warily, and wisps of spiritual energy once again seeped out from his weak dantian.
Looking at the countless floating spirit seals, Qin Luo thought to himself that he had probably been too overconfident this time.
Although he had long known that this place was very likely related to a grandmaster of formations, he had only thought that it was a fragment of a jade talisman that the grandmaster had unintentionally left behind.
But when he actually entered this strange space, the sheer number of spiritual imprints before him far exceeded his expectations.
Recalling the terrifying cold wave test, could it be that I really stumbled upon the legacy left behind by a grandmaster of formations?
If that were the case, how could the elders of the Heavenly Gates not have surveyed the broken continent beforehand when they discovered such an incredible opportunity? Logically speaking, given the resources of the nine Heavenly Gates, sending powerful individuals to explore in advance should be standard practice.
But now it seems they know nothing about the secrets here, otherwise the mass deaths of the academy's students wouldn't have happened.
Thinking of this, Qin Luo's face darkened. Although the inheritance was tempting, he had to be able to accept it.
He also knew his own limitations. The legacy left by a grandmaster of formations could probably bury them here with just a simple spiritual array.
This is no exaggeration. The means by which over a hundred million spiritual seals can be condensed into such a towering structure are far beyond what these people can easily contend with.
It should be noted that even with the heaven-defying power of the Myriad Manifestations Return to One Technique and the fourth transformation of the Myriad Manifestations of Heaven and Earth, Qin Luo can only barely condense 30,000 spirit seals. The thought of hundreds of millions of spirit seals is terrifying.
Just as everyone was intently observing the spirit seals, those spirit seals in the sky finally began to change.
The countless spiritual seals suddenly began to surge violently, piecing together and gradually forming a corner of a boundless spiritual array.
The sheer power emanating from just a corner of these spirit arrays caused Qin Luo's expression to change drastically. Under the pressure of this powerful aura, the spiritual energy and primordial energy within his body rose uncontrollably and swirled around him, barely allowing him to hold on.
In contrast, everyone else except Qin Luo was powerless to resist this aura that rivaled that of Tianyuan.
The leading woman of Luoyan Academy was instantly pressed to the ground. She tried to support herself with her hands, her nails digging into the starry sky-like ground, but she still couldn't stop her body from being firmly suppressed. Her hair was scattered messily across her face.
The burly man from Tongtian Academy, whose body was already weak, was even more vulnerable under this aura. He fell heavily to the ground with a thud, and his broadsword slipped from his hand. He struggled desperately to get up, but was unable to move due to the pressure. He could only let out a muffled roar, full of resentment.
Although Sikong Xiu of the Illusionary Dream Sect and the three people behind her were protected by the Soul-Shaking Butterfly, they were still overwhelmed by this aura and forced to lie on the ground. Blood was spilling from the corners of their mouths, and their spiritual energy was surging uncontrollably and chaotically within their bodies. Even the river of light that was protecting them was teetering on the brink of collapse.
Murong Liyue and the other two women were also forced to kneel on one knee by this overwhelming aura...
Fortunately, the disturbance of the spiritual seal only lasted for a short while.
When the spirit seal sensed that the highest cultivation level of the people below was only the Spirit Tribulation Realm, the riot came to an abrupt halt. The spirit seal that had been flying around quieted down.
Then, a massive number of spiritual seals began to fall from the sky. When these spiritual seals had fallen to number eight thousand, they began to combine and piece together with each other.
In a short while, nine Spirit Tribulation Realm puppets composed of spirit seals appeared before everyone.
These puppets were tall and imposing, with spiritual imprints shimmering and flowing across their bodies. Their eyes gleamed with a cold, eerie light as they stared intently at the crowd, like a group of guardians from ancient times.
Just as everyone was recovering from the shock of the array, they looked up and saw this scene, and all of them gasped in shock.
Before anyone had a chance to react, the nine spirit seal puppets, their bodies radiating intense spiritual light, charged toward the group.
Upon seeing this, the burly man from Tongtian Academy roared and swung his broken broadsword with tremendous force, creating afterimages of spiritual energy.
The blade flashed, each strike landing precisely on the spirit seal puppet, causing the spirit seals on the puppet to flicker, and some of them were even shattered.
However, before the burly man could catch his breath, the spiritual seals in the sky fell down again, quickly filling the damaged parts of the puppet.
In an instant, the puppet's injuries were completely healed.
Upon seeing this scene, a sense of despair arose in the burly man's heart. As he was in astonishment, the restored spirit seal puppet raised its thick arm, formed from spirit seals, high above. The spirit seals on the arm intertwined, emitting a chilling aura.
