"Impossible! You can't do it!" Ke Qing immediately said.
Lu Ning looked at Ke Qing: "Why? How strong is He now?"
“I don’t know, but before you came, an eighth-level Free Awakener came to the base city. He was also tricked into coming in and never came out.”
Everyone fell silent.
An eighth-order Free Awakener!
This is already at the level of a high-level Awakened One, and his strength is probably much greater than that of Nan Yu, who is at the seventh level.
If one possesses a powerful Soul Weapon, their combat strength is extremely terrifying!
These beings actually died inside?
Nan Yu quickly grasped the meaning behind Ke Qing's words: "You mean, he was also tricked into coming here like us? Why? Why would Li Fu and the others trick us into coming here?"
Ke Qing's eyes flickered, and she shook her head: "It's not that they want to trick you into coming in, but that He wants to. He is still in the growth stage, and He needs enough flesh and blood, the flesh and blood of the strong."
Upon hearing this, Nan Yu and the others' expressions changed slightly.
They suddenly understood many things.
"I see... So that's why your base city keeps sending out distress signals?! It's to lure the investigation team members here and then absorb their flesh and blood?!" Eileen exclaimed, her eyes wide.
Ke Qing nodded slowly, her expression twisted, and groaned, "That's right, the members of the previous investigation teams were also brought here and died inside."
Nan Yu and the others looked ashen-faced.
"When Saint Qinglan came to investigate before, he was released because the things underground could not subdue him?! He was just erased from Li Fu and the others' memories?!" Lin Menglan also thought of many things.
Ke Qing nodded: "That's right, that's how it is."
Lu Ning asked, "Why are you able to temporarily escape the influence of the Seed of Flesh and Blood?"
"Because my ability is flesh and blood enhancement! My control over my own flesh and blood is much stronger than others! I can temporarily sever the connection between my physical body and the flesh and blood seed! However, the flesh and blood seed is too powerful, and I cannot control it for too long."
Upon hearing this ability, Lu Ning was taken aback, a complex expression appearing on his face.
The captain also has this ability...
"We need to speed things up! Otherwise, I won't be able to hold out long enough to get you out of here!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Ning took a deep breath, a cold glint appearing in his eyes.
The flesh on his arm disappeared, and his aura surged dramatically.
He stepped forward, his crimson sword flashing, slaying large swathes of fleshy monsters blocking his path.
The speed of advancement increased significantly.
Nan Yu and the others quickly followed.
More than half an hour later, Lu Ning saw a dark blue light shield ahead.
Upon seeing the light shield, Ke Qing's ferocious expression softened.
"It's just ahead! You can rest there for a bit!"
At this moment, Lin Menglan and Afaf, who were relatively weaker, already had sweat on their foreheads.
The intense, prolonged battles took a heavy toll on their mental and physical strength.
A glimmer of light flashed in their eyes when they heard that they could rest up ahead.
Lu Ning quickened his pace, killing off the group of flesh-and-blood mutated beings in front of him, and rushed to the light shield.
A light shield covered the pipe in front of it, and through the light shield, it could be seen that there was no flesh or blood inside the pipe.
The ground and sides are all metal.
In the center of the light shield, a woman whose beauty still lingered was sitting cross-legged.
Her body radiated blue light, and she held a deep blue crystal in her hand.
When Ke Qing saw the beautiful woman, a look of sadness and longing appeared in her eyes.
She placed her hand on the light shield and whispered, "Mom, I'm back."
The light shield fluctuated, opening a door.
Ke Qing stepped inside first: "Come in quickly!"
Lu Ning and the others filed in, while Nan Yu held off the onslaught of the fleshy monsters behind them.
To Nan Yu's surprise, the flesh-and-blood monsters suddenly stopped when they approached the light shield.
The flesh and blood monsters that Li Fu and the others, who had been following them from a distance, transformed into roared wildly, but did not approach.
Without much thought, Nan Yu stepped into the light shield.
As Nan Yu entered the light shield, the shield rippled and slowly closed.
Ke Qing had already sat down next to the beautiful woman, and her expression gradually returned to calm from its ferocity.
Not only her, but Lu Ning and the others also sensed a very pure spiritual energy within the light barrier.
"This is..." Eileen and the others' expressions changed slightly, showing some surprise.
Ke Qing glanced at them: "This mental energy can quickly replenish your energy consumption."
Nan Yu and the others frowned, not absorbing it rashly, but instead looking at Lu Ning.
Lu Ning nodded: "It can be absorbed."
Upon hearing this, the others began to absorb spiritual energy to replenish what they had previously consumed.
While absorbing spiritual energy, Lu Ning kept his eyes fixed on the beautiful woman.
The beautiful woman kept her eyes tightly closed, and didn't open them even when Lu Ning and the others came in.
Her expression was serene, a stark contrast to the surrounding fleshy tubes and the densely packed fleshy monsters in the distance.
However, Lu Ning clearly sensed that she seemed to have lost her vitality.
The blue crystal in her hand contained an extremely dense white mist, but this mist did not dissipate.
Seeing that Lu Ning was staring at the beautiful woman, Ke Qing, who was in a much better mood, said, "She is my mother."
Lu Ning nodded: "I've seen her before."
Hearing this, not only Ke Qing, but also Nan Yu and the others were somewhat surprised.
