Tang Chuan nodded slightly, his expression calm, and he offered no further explanation.
Ye Lingling, however, seemed a little agitated. She took a step forward, her gaze fixed on the Blue Silver Grass in Tang Chuan's hand. Her voice quickened as she spoke. "Nine Heart SeaćŁ is known as the holy object among plant-type Spirit Beasts.
It's capable of elevating healing abilities to their extreme, but didn't it… become extinct long ago? Where did you find it?" Her eyes flickered with intense emotion—a mix of surprise, uncontrollable longing, and shock. As a Spirit Master skilled in healing, she knew all too well what Nine Heart SeaćŁ represented.Â
It was a near-mythical existence among plant-type Spirit Beasts, a dream for all support-type Spirit Masters. Her own spirit was Nine Heart SeaćŁ ; if she could find and absorb its spirit ring again, her strength would undoubtedly increase significantly!
After a moment of silence, Tang Chuan was about to speak.
"Roar!!!" An earth-shattering beast roar, like a clap of thunder, suddenly interrupted his thoughts. A large group of Spirit Beasts swarmed in from all directions like a tide. The air instantly filled with a foul scent and a killing intent.
"They're here! Everyone, prepare!" Qin Ming roared, his spirit power instantly erupting.
"Stop the nonsense!" Yan growled, his eyes narrowing. "Let's charge out!"
"Kill!" Yu Tianheng roared, and a Thunder Dragon Claw tore through the air!
Immediately after, everyone no longer hesitated. They fully mobilized their spirit power, releasing their respective spirits and soul skills. They stopped defending and only attacked, facing the onslaught of the Spirit Beast army directly.
"Boom!" The battle erupted instantly! The Spirit Beasts' attacks rained down—fangs, sharp claws, and poisonous stings striking one after another, rushing toward the group with enough force to tear through the air.
"Swish, swish, swish—!!!" Just as everyone was hit, the Blue Silver Grass wrapped around their waists trembled slightly, and then pink SeaćŁ flower phantoms reappeared. Blood had just spilled when it was enveloped by a blue-gold light, and the wounds instantly healed!
"What kind of terrifying recovery speed is this?!" Xie Yue looked shocked, his moon blades slashing out, but his eyes grew brighter with each attack. "I can't believe it."
"Charge quickly! Don't stop!" Tang Chuan shouted, and the Blue Silver Grass in his palm continuously grew and extended, covering everyone. It almost formed an invisible, giant recovery net!
However, just as Tang Chuan was fully controlling the Blue Silver Grass to provide continuous healing, a gentle yet undeniable spirit power fluctuation suddenly rose slowly from behind him.
"Nine Heart SeaćŁ , appear." With a soft hum, Ye Lingling stepped forward, her hands clasped in front of her chest. She slowly closed her eyes, and two yellow spirit rings coiled up from beneath her feet. As her words fell, her hands slowly spread open. A pink SeaćŁ flower, like the purest dewdrop in the morning light, quietly appeared in her palms.
"Om!" The next moment, the SeaćŁ flower gently flew into the sky and suddenly bloomed in mid-air!
"Boom—" A silent explosion rippled through the air. Countless pink petals scattered with the wind, like rain and mist, instantly covering the entire battlefield. The moment the petals landed, all Spirit Masters covered by them had a faint pink halo appear on their bodies. The speed of their wound healing suddenly increased, everyone felt a lightness in their bodies, and their fatigue was swept away!
The pink petals fluttering through the sky also landed on the Blue Silver Grass vines released by Tang Chuan.
"Swish…" The moment the petals touched the vines, Tang Chuan's body suddenly trembled violently. He clearly felt that the petals seemed to have fused with his Blue Silver Grass. This feeling was very peculiar—gentle and harmonious, as if connected by bloodlines, and like souls echoing each other. The resilience and vitality of the Blue Silver Grass and the sacredness and healing of the Nine Heart SeaćŁ had no conflict. Instead, they mutually amplified each other like milk and water, erupting a sensation similar to a spirit fusion.
"Could it be?" Tang Chuan's mind was shaken, and he turned to look at Ye Lingling behind him. At the same time, Ye Lingling also opened her eyes wide and met Tang Chuan's gaze. She only felt a strange yet incredibly compatible aura, slowly flowing into her body in the opposite direction, guided by her spirit power. Immediately after, an invisible spirit power bond quietly formed between the two, and their favorability instantly drew a step closer.
At the same time, Hu Liena and Xie Yue also displayed their Spirit Fusion Skill, Demonic Charm. With dual healing and the assistance of several Spirit Hall Spirit Saints, the two of them moved as if in an uninhabited land, rushing straight toward the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
Not far away, the Crimson King, who was fiercely fighting Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo in mid-air, saw this and his eyes narrowed. He no longer continued fighting, suddenly turning his body and swinging his right claw wildly with a heavy blow!
"Bang!!!" Chrysanthemum Douluo was caught off guard and was struck fiercely by the Crimson King's palm. His figure flew backward like a kite with a broken string, blasted a hundred meters away, finally crashing heavily onto the ground!
"Rumble!!" Dirt splashed, giant rocks shattered, and dust rose everywhere!
The next second, the Crimson King leaped violently, shaking off the Ghost Douluo beside him, and pounced toward the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's location, preparing to rescue it!
"Old Ghost…" Seeing this, Chrysanthemum Douluo gritted his teeth and slowly propped himself up. He shouted urgently, "This Spirit Beast's strength far surpasses that of the Azure Ox Python and the Titan Giant Ape. Hurry, one last move!" As he finished speaking, he stepped out, his entire body's spirit power erupting with a roar!
Ghost Douluo nodded, his eyes cold, and he shot over like a black shadow! Their figures collided in mid-air. Spirit power fluctuations roared as they intersected. Light and shadow, gold and black, condensed in the sky!
"Swish—!!!" To everyone's shocked gaze, the moment Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo made contact, their hands actually clasped tightly together! At this instant, the world suddenly fell silent.
"Spirit Fusion Skill—Two Poles of Static Domain!" The next second, light and shadow exploded, and the nine spirit rings on their bodies all lit up simultaneously. Immediately after, a total of eighteen spirit rings instantly condensed into a massive gold and silver bi-colored halo, which then quietly flew out, enveloping this entire area.
Tang Chuan only felt a blur before his eyes; suddenly, the world seemed to have turned gray. The moment the Two Poles of Static Domain was released, the Crimson King, who had already taken to the air and was preparing to pounce toward the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, suddenly trembled violently. His muscles tensed, and his limbs instantly stiffened!
"What?" The Crimson King's eyes bulged in anger. He actually found that his entire body seemed to be trapped in some invisible restraint. His spirit power circulation was suddenly obstructed, and he was forcefully held in place. At the same time, in the forest below, the Spirit Beast horde that was continuously attacking Tang Chuan and the others was also largely controlled instantly.
"Nana, you guys go quickly. We can only control this big guy for a while. Be fast!" Ghost Douluo's anxious voice came from the air.
Hearing this, Hu Liena gritted her teeth. She looked up at Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo in the air, and although somewhat reluctant, she didn't hesitate. She shouted urgently, "Retreat!" She decisively waved her hand, leading Xie Yue, Yan, and the other Spirit Hall Spirit Masters to immediately change direction, breaking through the Spirit Beast blockade along the edge of the battlefield and rapidly fleeing toward the outer perimeter of the forest!
On the other side, because most of the Spirit Beast horde was controlled by the Two Poles of Static Domain, the Royal Fight Team also quickly tore open a bloody path and then rushed out. In just a few breaths, everyone successfully broke through!
Although Tang Chuan also broke through the blockade and escaped, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion kept pursuing relentlessly, as if it wouldn't stop until it tore him to shreds.
"Damn it! This guy… is he dead set on me?" Looking back at the relentlessly pursuing Three-Eyed Golden Lion, Tang Chuan cursed, his heart sinking. He quickened his pace, his figure darting through the forest like the wind. Immediately after, he quickly scanned his surroundings. The Spirit Hall members and the Royal Fight Team were already out of sight. He then stomped his foot violently, and his right leg erupted with a blue-gold light. The 100,000-year Blue Silver Emperor right leg bone skill, Flight, activated!
"Swish—!" Tang Chuan instantly took to the air, rapidly soaring into the sky. But as soon as he ascended, he heard a muffled thud from behind him.
Turning his head sharply, he saw that the Three-Eyed Golden Lion had actually leaped onto a giant tree trunk! Then, with a fierce push, it used the tree trunk's power to leap again! Its massive body, like a cannonball, lunged violently toward Tang Chuan!
"Crap! This guy's so fast!" His face pale, Tang Chuan shouted, and he was instantly knocked flying. He was then brutally pinned to the ground by the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, spitting out a mouthful of blood from the impact on his back, his chest aching violently.
The next second, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion let out another roar, and a claw slammed down violently!
"Hiss—!" Tang Chuan's right shoulder was instantly torn by the sharp claws. Blood splattered, and three hideous, glaring red gashes appeared on his shoulder! If not for the instant healing ability brought by the 100,000-year Spirit Bone, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's claw would have been enough to instantly sever his entire arm.
Tang Chuan was about to struggle when he saw the Three-Eyed Golden Lion open its massive, fanged maw, aiming directly at his face and biting down!
"Crap!" His face changed drastically, and a hint of killing intent flashed in Tang Chuan's eyes. In that life-or-death moment, he suddenly raised his arm, and a golden light burst forth!
"Dark Gold Terrorclaw!" Several golden claws, glinting with cold light, rapidly shot out from the front of his palm, like blades unsheathed—it was the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's palm bone!
"Get lost!" Tang Chuan roared, swinging his arm fiercely. The Dark Gold Terrorclaw cut through the air, directly meeting the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's pouncing maw!
"Clang!!!" The golden claws and sharp teeth collided violently, sparks flying. The Three-Eyed Golden Lion cried out in pain, roaring from its mouth, and its head sharply tilted! The next second, as it was about to pounce again, a cold glint flashed in Tang Chuan's eyes, and he suddenly raised his hand!
"Blue Silver Grass!" As the low shout fell, Blue Silver Grass vines shot out from the ground like venomous snakes, instantly binding the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's limbs and body! As soon as the Three-Eyed Golden Lion noticed, the vines were already close to its body. The distance was too close; it had no time to dodge!
"Swish swish swish—!" Dense Blue Silver Grass quickly tightened, binding it tightly, from head to toe, like a tightly wrapped zongzi!
"Roar—" Seeing this, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion roared, its internal spirit power surging, muscles bulging. It was clear that in just a moment, it would be able to break free. Although it was only a moment, that still required time!
"Bang!" The next second, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's tightly bound body fell from directly above Tang Chuan! Tang Chuan wanted to dodge but had no time, only managing to brace himself and fall backward.
"Thump!" In an instant, the two crashed together fiercely! However, at this very moment, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's head was bowed, and the strange vertical eye in the center of its forehead, in its struggle, precisely and directly pressed against the wound on Tang Chuan's shoulder.
The moment Tang Chuan's shoulder touched the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's vertical eye, both his and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's bodies trembled violently.
"Hiss—" Tang Chuan's pupils contracted! He saw the blood on his shoulder, as if pulled by some force, slowly flowing into the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's vertical eye! However, just as Tang Chuan's nerves were taut and he was preparing to forcefully break free, another anomaly occurred!
Within that strange vertical eye, the long-accumulated golden light suddenly surged backward, flowing against the current into Tang Chuan's wound! A moment later, Tang Chuan suddenly felt his mind go blank, as if even the mental force within his body had disappeared.
Rings of strange, distorted halos enveloped his and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's bodies. Between them, their bodies seemed to become transparent, with light flickering faintly. With each shift of light, Tang Chuan and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's bodies trembled slightly.
He only felt that his spirit, in that instant, seemed to be pulled by some force. His consciousness broke free from the shackles of his physical body, transmigrating through ancient time and space, appearing in a vast, deep, and ancient-breathed dense forest. But before he could clearly see everything before him, the world suddenly changed.
