Sensing that the Black Owl's life force was dissipating at an increasingly rapid pace, Ji Fengming became frantic. His divine soul frantically surged outwards, causing the rose-gold rhomboid divine core to tilt and sway. The powerful force within the divine core could no longer merge with him.
"Master, please don't..." the little girl tried anxiously to persuade.
"If you can't obey my orders, then shut up! I'm not your master!" Ji Fengming roared angrily, continuing to frantically ram the divine core, and said furiously, "If he dies, I will not live alone. You can keep waiting and see which unlucky person will become the master of a stupid pig like you!"
Little girl: "..."
It was clearly the former master who said that those who guard the temple must be as dutiful as she is, and not easily swayed by external forces.
But why does her new owner dislike her so much? Is it really her fault?
She couldn't care about others, but she didn't want her master to die; she had been waiting for this for a very, very long time.
The little girl's face was filled with deep grievance as she lowered her head and said, "Master, please don't worry. Although I can't remove you from your divine core, I can move the entire divine core out. However, Master, please be careful. Before you merge with the divine core, you have no power to protect yourself..."
"Stop arguing and get me out of here!"
Seeing that even Black Owl could not stand steadily and fell into the hands of Shang Xiye and Ji Fengyao, Ji Fengming was so anxious that he was almost going crazy.
The little girl pursed her lips and waved her little hand.
The rose-gold divine essence flew out of the room, shining through the brow of the celestial portrait in the outer hall.
Ji Fengming was unable to speak to Hei Xiao while inside the divine core.
He could only try his best to let out strands of the powerful energy within his divine essence, hoping to pass it on to him.
Xiao Kui followed him out and saw that her new master was willing to waste his divine power to save the man on the ground. This time, she finally understood and took the initiative to help Ji Fengming seal off the hall, pouring all the life force that the Black Owl had not yet dissipated into his body.
The powerful energy emanating from Ji Fengming's divine core directly nourished everyone in the hall.
"It's Phoenix Cry!" Black Owl stared intently at the rose-gold crystal floating in mid-air, his eyes filled with joy.
“There is indeed the aura of a phoenix.” Shang Xiye helped Hei Xiao up, looked up at the crystal, frowned slightly, and asked the little bandit beside him, “Little wife, what is this phoenix…”
"I don't know what the situation is either," Ji Fengyao said after carefully sensing the surroundings. "But I don't feel any danger. Perhaps my brother has some other good fortune. Let's not act rashly and wait and see. Brother Xiao Chen, what do you think? Do you feel that my brother is in danger?"
“No,” Black Owl shook his head.
Not only did he not feel anything, he also felt an aura emanating from within the crystal...
Perhaps, this is just his imagination.
"Then let's rest here for a while and wait to see if Fengming can communicate with us. Once we know what Fengming means, we'll decide what to do next," Shang Xiye said.
Everyone was worried about Ji Fengming's safety and had no objection to Shang Xiye's decision. So they all took out spirit stones and began to meditate in the hall to heal their injuries and restore their cultivation.
Ma Chengrao was just a martial artist who had not cultivated, but the powerful aura of life emanating from the divine essence in the hall was very beneficial to him. With nothing else to do, he silently practiced his fist techniques in the hall, while occasionally patrolling the doorway to prevent the men in black from suddenly returning to launch a sneak attack.
