Chen Zhou turned his head to look at his feet and then understood the principle behind the shadow's power. A large part of the shadow was stuck to the ground, and only a small part was pressing down on Chen Zhou, which allowed it to firmly trap Chen Zhou in place.
"Damn it, my true energy has absolutely no effect on this shadowy figure." Chen Zhou sighed inwardly. Although Chen Zhou possessed the Primordial Truth, it had already become one with Chen Zhou's true energy. Chen Zhou's true energy was completely intertwined with the shadowy figure, making it impossible for it to have any substantial effect on the shadowy figure.
For a moment, Chen Zhou was at a loss as to what to do with the dark figure.
"Elder Ren, what is this?" Chen Zhou asked in his mind.
Chen Zhou had no other way to deal with the dark figure, so he asked Elder Ren for help.
The situation was urgent, and Chen Zhou had to quickly get rid of the shadows around him, as the shadows were slowly moving toward him and the sound waves were getting louder and louder.
It seemed that the power of this sound wave needed to be built up, and it was not yet enough to make Chen Zhou dizzy and disoriented, so Chen Zhou needed to hurry up.
"I've never heard of this kind of creature before. How can it be able to mix with true qi? Could it also be a kind of true qi?" Elder Ren asked curiously.
True Qi?
"Yes, indeed!" Chen Zhou suddenly felt a surge of admiration. There's hardly anything in this world that can mix with true qi so perfectly without causing any harm. What else could it be but two types of true qi?
"Is this really true qi? Then why is my offensive true qi having no effect on it?" Chen Zhou continued to ask.
When two kinds of true energy collide, a collision attack will occur. It is rare for true energy to merge with each other. Now, if this black shadow is truly true energy, it can actually mix with Chen Zhou's true energy.
"Stop making wild guesses. If this is true qi, then the owner of this shadowy true qi is stronger than you can imagine. How could such a person appear in this small swamp?" Elder Ren said.
Indeed, if this shadowy figure is true energy, possessing its own characteristics and abilities, and able to exist in the world for so long, how terrifying must its master's strength be?!
Chen Zhou immediately dismissed the idea and continued to look for other solutions.
The dark figures slowly pounced towards Chen Zhou. One of them held him tightly, preventing him from moving. Now, all the figures had the ability to attack Chen Zhou, and he gradually fell into a great disadvantage.
If Chen Zhou wants to break out of this disadvantageous situation, he must quickly break through the shadow, but Chen Zhou has no way to deal with the shadow.
"Try absorbing this shadow into your body!" Elder Ren suddenly said, as if he had thought of a solution. Upon hearing this, Chen Zhou was immediately bewildered. Could he really absorb the shadow directly into his body?
This is like asking Chen Zhou to eat something he can't possibly eat. Even if Chen Zhou could eat it, he might not be able to digest it.
Chen Zhou was speechless at Ren Lao's method, but he had no other good options at the moment, so he had to follow Ren Lao's method.
"Okay!" Chen Zhou replied solemnly, gritting his teeth as he began to use his true energy to completely surround the dark figure.
Chen Zhou used his true energy to continuously absorb the shadow into his body. A deep vortex of true energy appeared in Chen Zhou's dantian, which suddenly burst out with a powerful attraction, pulling the shadow behind Chen Zhou.
The dark figure was pulled by the sudden, powerful suction force and didn't recover for a moment. Its body began to merge into Chen Zhou's body little by little.
"It actually works!" Chen Zhou exclaimed inwardly. He had only given it a try, but it actually worked.
However, Chen Zhou wasn't too happy yet. Even if he could pull the shadow into his body, it would only break the current stalemate and put him at a disadvantage. He didn't know what would happen once the shadow entered his body.
Chen Zhou was desperate and had no other choice but to try anything.
"You have to jump up! These dark shadows are surrounding you, and they'll probably all pounce on you soon! And the sonic attack is getting stronger and stronger!" Old Ren said excitedly.
Upon hearing Elder Ren's words, Chen Zhou immediately leaped up, his figure quickly crossing the branches and appearing at the top of the tree next to him.
The shadow behind Chen Zhou has now been completely absorbed into his body, which is why he can move freely now. Otherwise, he would still be unable to move.
"These dark shadows actually absorbed all of them and entered my dantian?" Chen Zhou murmured, feeling clusters of dark shadows merging into his dantian.
Since the shadowy figure was about the same size as Chen Zhou, there was also a lot of shadowy figures. They all flowed into Chen Zhou's dantian, turning Chen Zhou's entire dantian pitch black.
"Damn it, I can't even use my true energy anymore! That dark shadow has taken over my dantian!" Chen Zhou exclaimed angrily. He had tried many times but couldn't use it!
The pitch-black true energy was like a giant black plaster, clinging tightly to Chen Zhou's dantian, preventing him from mobilizing the true energy within his body.
Unable to mobilize his inner energy, Chen Zhou was suddenly left isolated and helpless.
The dark figures below moved very slowly, which was the only flaw Chen Zhou had discovered so far.
The piercing sound grew louder and louder. Chen Zhou was unable to use his true energy to protect his earlobes, which made it easy for the sound waves to attack his ears!
"Run!" Elder Ren panicked in the spiritual world. He couldn't use his true energy to protect his ears, which made Chen Zhou more vulnerable to sonic attacks.
The sonic attack would make Chen Zhou dizzy; if he were to get caught here, the consequences would be unimaginable.
