Chapter 73 She is the Light
It was the branches and leaves on Lu Chenzhou's spiritual body that blocked the tentacles' attack on Qianzhi.
Lu Chenzhou quickly pushed Qianzhi aside, but the tentacles broke off his leaves and tore them into pieces.
He groaned, and his arms bent outwards in an arc that a normal person shouldn't have.
The monster in the black mud appeared in front of everyone.
That is an existence even more unimaginable than the monster outside the "door".
The roiling purple-black pus solidified into its entire body. It had countless eyes, and above all the eyes extended pale, deformed tentacles. At the bottom of the tentacles were limbs that could change shape.
Just like before, they turned into swords and cut off the branches and leaves of Lu Chenzhou's spiritual body, and then turned into deformed claws and tore it apart.
Those eyes were looking in different directions as the monster moved, and acidic yellow mud was flowing out of its eyes.
Theo carried Qianzhi on his shoulders and jumped back nimbly, avoiding the monster's sudden attack.
He dodged one tentacle, but new ones emerged from the black mud.
Theo frowned, and his spirit suddenly rushed out of his body and bit the tentacles.
The spirit body slid across the surface of the tentacles, and black mud overflowed, like the blood of a monster.
The monster let out a shrill roar.
"Only the power of the spirit can defeat monsters!"
The Sentinels' lightsabers cut off the monster's tentacles, but they grew back unharmed the next moment.
Only spiritual attacks can have an effect on monsters.
"But there are too many of them!" A sentry panted and tore a monster into pieces with the teeth of his golden-haired spirit body, but the next moment more monsters emerged from the black mud.
And with Qianzhi as the center point, Theo was completely surrounded.
——Their target is Qianzhi!
Theo understood the intentions of these monsters. The guide was the only guarantee that allowed the sentinels to maintain their combat capabilities. If she was taken away, they would all die!
"Theo," the girl on him suddenly patted his back, "there's light over there. Maybe it's a gap where the 'door' hasn't closed yet."
Sure enough, following the direction she pointed, at the end of the darkness, there was a line of light that had not yet closed.
They had just been brought into the "door", and in a short period of time, the gap connecting to the real world had not yet closed.
"Qianqian," the man jumped up, pulled Qianzhi up with his big hands, and let her put her arms around his neck.
Theo's golden eyes sparkled in the darkness, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly, revealing an uninhibited and flamboyant smile: "Hold me tight, I will take you out."
While Qianzhi hugged Theo, the man held her with one hand and flashed in front of the monster blocking them at a speed that was difficult to see with the naked eye.
The bright lightsaber transformed into countless lights and shadows, instantly cutting off the monster's tentacles. The giant eyes oozing with yellow pus were pierced, and black water gushed out, which the man dodged lightly.
The golden lion pounced on Theo the moment he attacked, using its fangs to tear off the ends of tentacles that wanted to continue growing, and using its sharp claws to poke out all the eyes that were spewing black water!
"Success—" Theo was about to deal with the next one, but the monster moved again.
Its entire body was burning with black energy as it rushed towards Theo!
boom--
A spiritual force rushed to the monster along the suddenly grown vines, and the silvery-white light wrapped the monster completely, like a ball of silver-white firework, slowly burning the monster into a ball of white dust, annihilating it in the black space.
"Sure enough, this is the only way to completely destroy it." Qianzhi took a deep breath and stretched out his arms, allowing more vines to extend out.
"Theo, have everyone lure the monster over here."
"But you—" The man tightened his arms around her.
"It's okay." Qianzhi pursed her lips which were turning pale.
She consumed too much mental energy in the illusion, but she could still deal with these monsters.
The vines crawled along the spiritual bodies of the sentinels, and the monsters evaporated and dissipated under the silvery-white light.
"Hurry! The gap is about to close!" Everyone ran towards the gap.
But the roar sounded again from in front of them.
Despair flashed in everyone's eyes. A new monster appeared before their eyes, blocking the exit tightly!
The roar of lightsabers and brown wolves pierced through space.
Bo Lan rushed in the opposite direction of the people.
"You go first, I will catch up with you then." He looked deeply in the direction of Qianzhi.
The monster's tentacles scratched his cheek, and the black water soaked and climbed up his calves, and his hands gradually lost feeling.
"Qianqian, you go first. Alan and I will come to find you later." Lu Chenzhou followed closely behind Bo Lan, and the carnivorous plant secreted corrosive juice towards the monster.
Theo looked at them going against the flow of people, gritted his teeth, hugged Qianzhi, and ran towards the light.
But Qianzhi broke free from his embrace.
"You're so cunning," the girl whispered. "Do you think I'll forgive you? Even if you want to die, you need my permission."
She spread out her palms, and a dazzling moon-white light slowly spread from her body.
It is so bright that it illuminates the entire dark world with an extremely transparent and dazzling light.
All the darkness that had been lurking around them, trying to pull them into the abyss, disappeared.
Under the brilliant light, the figures of those monsters looked like transparent dark pieces of paper. They exploded in an instant and turned into countless white shadows, dancing into the sky.
"Qianqian." Theo's voice was trembling.
The girl's blood was flowing on his hands.
Blood dripped from her lips and gathered in Theo's palm.
The light flickered and she fell down.
A flash of black water passed by.
"Now! Quickly!" Theo hugged the girl tightly in his arms, leaned his body over, and at the moment the gap was about to close, he turned over and jumped out.
A deafening roar rang in their ears.
The terrifying black door that towered into the clouds gradually faded and disappeared before their eyes, as if it had never appeared.
The sentries in protective suits who had been waiting outside rushed towards them.
They saw their crown prince trembling and holding the person in his arms, his eyes red, shouting at them at the top of his lungs:
"Where are the medics? Get them over here!"
Bo Lan stared at the door of the medical cabin without blinking.
His calves were badly corroded, but he ignored anyone's advice and just stood there in silence.
The brown wolf emerged from his body, walked around the wall several times, and banged its head against the wall.
Like a man on the verge of collapse.
The lights in the medical bay finally dimmed.
The attending physician came out and everyone gathered around him.
"Guide Qianzhi's mental image is intact," the doctor turned to Ian, who had been waiting, subtly avoiding looking at Theo or Bo Lan, "but a cavity has appeared."
"Cavity?" Ian frowned.
From a medical perspective, a cavity refers to the pathological enlargement of an organ's physiological space. From the perspective of a guide or sentinel, it refers to a mental image that has lost almost all its spiritual support. If not replenished quickly, it will atrophy or even disappear.
This is why many guides cherish their spiritual power.
"Yes. So now there is a way." The doctor frowned again and avoided Theo's gaze again.
