Chapter 374: Battle on the Eighth Floor
"Lingze? How do you have Lingze?"
Mei'er opened her eyes wide in shock, and her voice was no longer as gentle as usual, but rather sharp.
Zhong Ling'er smiled indifferently, "What's so strange about this? Didn't I promise to take you out of the tower and let the Heavenly Dao recognize you? You don't think I was just talking, do you?"
Countless souls rushed to the porcelain bottle, scrambling to get into the bottle. This bottle was obviously also a space magic weapon. The space inside was very large, so so many souls could get in.
Mei'er suddenly reached out to grab the porcelain vase, but Zhong Ling'er grabbed her wrist. At this moment, she no longer looked charming, but rather excited.
“Zhong Ling’er, that’s Lingze, how can you waste it? So many of us need it to survive, why would you give it to these useless souls?”
"Because I am the master of Lingze, I can give it to whoever I want. Besides, if I give it to these souls, at least they won't harm me secretly. Maybe I can even earn some merits. But what can I get if I give it to you? Betrayal, or harm? Or even take my life directly?"
Mei'er immediately regained her senses and leaned over delicately, "Sister, what are you talking about? I want Lingze, but that doesn't mean I will betray you. How can you think so badly of me?"
Zhong Ling'er was enjoying the warmth and softness of the body, but her eyes became gloomy.
"Okay, then I'll trust you again, otherwise I won't let you off easily."
The two of them sat and lay down, quietly waiting for all the souls to enter the bottle, and during this period, not a single sound was made.
However, Zhong Ling'er could still feel Mei'er's inner anxiety. She closed her eyes gently, as if she wanted to take a nap.
"Sister Ling'er, the Ghost King hasn't come for such a long time. Could he have accidentally entered another dimension? It's not a good idea for us to keep waiting like this. Why don't we go up?"
"Are you saying that we should go to the eighth floor? I'm afraid there will be a fierce battle waiting for us there."
Mei'er paused for a moment, and said coquettishly, "If you don't trust me, I won't say anything. Everything is up to you."
Zhong Ling'er touched Mei'er's face and then jumped up.
"I'm just teasing you. Let's go to the eighth floor now."
The two walked towards the eighth floor, and the eighth floor was finally full of monsters as Zhong Ling'er had imagined.
Demonic energy filled the entire floor, and countless powerful monsters were constantly moving around in the dilapidated cells, while Qingshe and others who had disappeared earlier were fighting with the monsters.
Zhong Ling'er didn't understand what the people in Tianji Pavilion were thinking. They would rather use one floor to store souls than disperse the powerful monsters. Now, nearly a hundred monsters broke through the cells and turned this floor into purgatory.
Zhong Ling'er opened the spirit beast bag and let Li Yuru and others out. Then she pointed at the monster and said, "Come on, let's fight the monster together and defend the way."
"Oh my god, there are so many monsters, there are not enough of us!"
"There are more than a dozen tribulation monsters here. We can't defeat them."
"Let's run away. Let's rush to the nine stairs together."
Zhong Ling'er's voice was very cold. "I asked you to eliminate demons and defend the Way. Didn't you understand? Don't forget that your loved ones either died at the hands of the demons or at the claws of these monsters. Don't you want revenge?"
Li Yuru was so excited that he drew his sword and said, "Zhong Ling'er is right. We can't run away. We must take revenge."
She rushed out without hesitation, and the others also took out their weapons and rushed forward. Zhong Ling'er found an empty space and began to set up the formation.
Mei'er followed Zhong Ling'er, and seemed to be very frightened. She grabbed her clothes and refused to let go. Zhong Ling'er just glanced at her indifferently, and then concentrated on setting up the formation, not caring about anything else.
Thirty people against nearly a hundred monsters, the gap is very obvious. Even if everyone tried their best, they were all covered in wounds and in danger.
Li Yuru's swordsmanship was very sharp, but being in prison for tens of thousands of years had made her swordsmanship a little rusty. The clawed monster opposite her had become half human, and it swung its claws towards her face with a strange smile.
Next to them, the short monster who had been watching the fight jumped up and punched Li Yuru hard on the back.
Being attacked from both sides left Li Yuru with no way to retreat. She had to move her body to avoid a punch from her back, and swung her sword to block the claws in front of her. She was then shocked and flew backwards, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
And the moment she was knocked away, the snake demon's huge body was also knocked far away and crashed straight into Zhong Ling'er who was setting up the formation.
At this time, Zhong Ling'er was concentrating on setting up the formation and had no idea of the approaching danger. If the ten-foot-long body of the snake demon had hit Zhong Ling'er, she would not only have broken bones and tendons, but would also have been seriously injured and would definitely not be able to escape.
Mei'er looked at the snake that was about to approach her, and then looked at Zhong Ling'er who was dropping a formation base. A collision was inevitable, but for some reason, her body uncontrollably blocked Zhong Ling'er.
“Bang!”
The feeling of pain spread throughout her body, and Mei'er felt that her body was about to fall apart. Behind her, she did not touch Zhong Ling'er's body. While flying backwards, she saw Zhong Ling'er instantly appear behind the snake demon, grabbed the snake demon's tail with her hand, and made him stop.
"hehe!"
Mei'er just found it funny. How could Zhong Ling'er not be alert at all? She had clearly noticed something was wrong and had already had some suspicions. What was the point of her doing this? It was just a joke.
She waited for the pain to come when her body hit the ground, but found that the collision did not happen again. Her body was held by a hand, and then she was still for a moment before falling into a warm embrace.
"Wow, you look so good, but you're so heavy. Sister Mei'er, you still need to lose some weight."
Zhong Ling'er's voice rang in her ears. Mei'er came to her senses and found herself in Zhong Ling'er's arms.
Zhong Ling'er held herself and rocked back and forth, a look of disgust on her face.
After trying to move, Mei'er felt that although she was hit hard, her abdomen was slightly injured but it was not serious. So she stood up immediately, and she was indeed seriously injured.
Zhong Ling'er rubbed her wrist and then flashed in front of the snake demon.
Seeing that he had fainted, Zhong Ling'er fed him a handful of pills and then dragged him to the formation nearby.
Zhong Ling'er said to Mei'er, "Don't move in the formation. The monsters can't get in, and they won't hurt you. Take care of him."
Then Zhong Ling'er went to another place and started to set up the unfinished formation.
Two more people fell, but everyone discovered that the formation could block the attacks of monsters, so they brought their own people to escape. As more and more monsters surrounded them, Zhong Ling'er finally set up the monster-sealing formation.
