He sat down with his legs crossed, and after silently reciting the incantation, Yang Ling felt the energy emanating from the Stone Forest Array flood into him like a tide. Under the influence of the witchcraft, it rotated along the mysterious trajectory, circle after circle, slowly transforming into pure crimson witch power.
Compress, compress again!
After absorbing a vast amount of energy, he forcibly compressed the witch power within his body. Slowly but surely, the crimson witch power inside him became increasingly refined, permeating every muscle in his body and seeping into every inch of his bones.
Under the extreme compression, he felt his body was like a sponge, frantically absorbing the energy gathered by the Stone Forest Array. Slowly, the energy that had accumulated for unknown years from underground and within the stone stele began to emanate, forming a circle of white mist around him, growing denser and denser.
One doesn't do, two don't rest. After gritting his teeth, Yang Ling resolutely used his mind and silently recited the Tongling incantation. Before long, the surrounding trees swayed without wind, emitting strands of green life energy. Slowly, the energy gathered by the Shilin Wu array entwined together, forming a large mist with alternating white and green hues.
The energy gathered by the Stone Forest Array was simply too vast, and after absorbing it for about half a time, he felt that his entire body was almost bursting with the surging witch power, while the seven-colored light at the entrance of the cave remained motionless, without any change.
Is it that the method is incorrect or that too little energy was absorbed? Or, did the Shilin Witch Array quickly replenish its energy after absorbing the starlight?
After feeling that the colorful light at the entrance of the cave had not changed, Yang Ling was puzzled and thought for a moment before deciding to add more fire. His hands quickly formed the Starlight Witchcraft Seal. He hoped to compete with the Stone Forest Witch Array for the energy of the stars in the sky, weakening or even cutting off its energy supply.
As his hand seals became faster and more complex, he felt a vast and mighty energy pouring into him. With a soft 'ding', the tower-shaped mark on his forehead suddenly heated up rapidly, jumping violently as it absorbed the tremendous energy like a whale swallowing seawater.
Yang Ling felt that his energy absorption speed was already abnormal, but compared to the bottomless pit-like Wuta, it was still small. If he said his body was a pond, then the mysterious Wuta was Lake Dongting, crazily absorbing all the energy around him.
After absorbing a large amount of energy, Wu Ta emitted a refreshing energy that flowed rapidly through his limbs. Gradually, Yang Ling felt his spiritual power surge upward, and even with his eyes closed, he could clearly sense the wind blowing and grass swaying nearby. One mile, two miles... He saw the half-beastmen patrolling at the sulfur mine, saw the spider army transformed into a cocoon-like shape, and his perception range grew farther and farther.
Under Wu Ta's crazy absorption, the colorful light at the entrance of the cave finally changed. After a soft hum, the color became more and more faint, no longer emitting dazzling light, allowing Yang Ling to see hope.
Since the surrounding trees rustled automatically without wind, making a 'rustling' sound. The half-beast people all woke up one after another, and the old fox tribe who slept in the tent was no exception.
Could it be that, apart from being a Summoner, Yang Ling was also an unfathomably powerful Magician, or even the rarest of them all - a Magic Conductor?
Witnessing the strange thick fog around Yang Ling, feeling the vast and surging magical power, the elder of the Fox tribe was shocked and pale, secretly grateful that they had not clashed with him earlier. Fierce warriors, terrifying demon beast armies, plus incredibly powerful magic... Within a few thousand miles of Weisen Town, who could be his opponent as the lord?
After ordering the crowd to quickly leave the strange stone forest, the elder of the Fox tribe looked at Yang Ling with a worried heart. Without a doubt, Weisen Town will rise to a powerful lord, and the descendants of the Radak Mountains who have been passed down for thousands of years, what should they do next?
Although Yang Ling had promised to allow the half-beastmen to move freely in Weisen Town and guarantee that their people have the same rights as humans, who can guarantee that this is not just empty talk?
If they don't rely on Yang Ling, how will the tribe survive in the Ladakh Mountains in the future? The old fox's face was solemn, even if it were himself, he would not allow a force beyond control to exist near the tribe, let alone the human lord who is notorious for his greed and cunning!
Strength, everything depends on strength!
If the Orcs had a strong Saint, their tribe wouldn't have fallen to this state. After contemplating for half a day, the Fox Tribe's elder decided that one shouldn't change with the times, if Yang Ling could fulfill his promise and possess enough strength to protect the powers following him, then it wouldn't be late to rely on him at that time. Of course, before the situation becomes clear, building good relations with him is also necessary.
The old fox tribe had made up his mind and felt more at ease in his heart, while Yang Ling was getting worse and worse!
Although Wuta absorbed most of the starlight energy, life energy and the energy accumulated by Shilin for thousands of years, he still absorbed a huge amount of energy. The magnitude and terror of this energy far exceeded his imagination!
Although he had stopped casting the Spirit Technique and Stellar Magic, things had already gotten out of his control! Under the influence of the Witch's Tower, a massive amount of energy poured in from all directions, seeping into every pore on his body.
Slowly, he discovered that due to extreme compression, the Wu force and life energy inside his body were forcibly merged together. From its original gaseous state, it transformed into a liquid state, and then from a liquid state to a solid state, gathering an enormous amount of energy. Slowly, as the energy far exceeded what could be endured, every single pore on his entire body oozed out threads of blood.
Before long, through the thick fog, looking from the outside in, Yang Ling had turned into a blood-soaked bloody man. Fortunately, Wu Ta emitted a cool feeling, guiding the massive energy inside his body to flow slowly and gather at the Dan Tian position, compressing repeatedly without stopping. Otherwise, the massive energy would have burst his body alive long ago.
Witnessing Yang Ling's body permeating with strands of fresh blood, not to mention the man-eating demons guarding him, even the half-beasts in the distance felt something was off. Unfortunately, for the time being, neither Brasca, the two-headed man-eating demon, nor the Fox Tribe elder had any solution, and no one dared to make a move.
After Yang Ling forcibly cut off the energy transmitted by the Stone Forest Array, the colorful light at the entrance of the cave became more and more dim. Slowly, a faint outline of a mountain cave appeared. Looking far into it, inside was pitch black, and no one knew how deep this strange cave was.
"Iburi, it's so cold!"
As the colorful light faded, people felt a cold wind blowing from the cave, icy and piercing to the bone, even colder than the snowy wind outside. It was unknown what was going on. The elder of the Fox tribe also felt that the chill carried a thread of dark and eerie magic power.
******
"Nobody is allowed to make any move without orders!"
The elder of the Fox tribe's face grew increasingly solemn, and for some reason, the seven-colored light behind the mountain cave made him feel an unprecedented sense of danger. With caution, he strongly restrained his clansmen who were about to rush over to take a look, and continuously sent out several clever scouts to investigate the position of the reinforcements that were expected to arrive after dawn.
Under the biting teeth, Yang Ling felt his body like a knife cut, and his consciousness became more and more dizzy. After an unknown period of time, the energy that had been rolling up and down in the dantian suddenly expanded rapidly, followed by a drastic contraction, compressing into a bead the size of a needle tip, frantically absorbing the energy inside the body.
At the same time, with a faint "whoosh" sound, the increasingly dim seven-colored light at the entrance of the cave finally dissipated completely, revealing a dark mountain cave.
Wudan? Could it be that unintentionally broke through to the Wudan boundary and condensed into a Wudan pill?
After feeling the changes within his body, Yang Ling's whole body shook as he recalled the explanation on the Square Pagoda. He was overjoyed beyond expectation. Originally, he only wanted to break through the seven-colored light blocking the entrance, but unexpectedly, after absorbing a huge amount of energy, he broke through the bottleneck in one go!
Ahh...
Before he could carefully feel the changes in his body, a low and powerful roar suddenly came from inside the cave. Instantly, just like last time, as if struck by a hammer, he was knocked flying out by an invisible wave of air. He spat out a big mouthful of blood, and the millet-sized, newly formed Wu Dan in his body almost got shaken apart.
Caught off guard, not to mention Yang Ling, who was at the forefront, even the nearby ghouls and several half-orcs were blown away. Only the unicorn, as an eighth-level advanced demon beast, retreated a few steps before withstanding the violent sonic wave.
"Not good, hurry up!"
Originally, just as Yang Ling was about to spit out a mouthful of blood, the elder of the Fox tribe was preparing to rush over and check on him. But after the strange roar, a huge giant spider crawled out of the cave, densely packed, with no end in sight. In great shock, he hastily ordered his tribesmen to rush up and seal off the entrance.
As for the terror of the giant spider, the elder of the Fox tribe knew better than anyone else. In those years, the elite of 300 people in the tribe were killed by their siege. If they were surrounded by a large group of fast-moving giant spiders, I'm afraid no one could rush out of the Tardon Canyon!
The Dog Head's weapon was strange, a wooden stake with a pointed tip like a javelin. With a loud "whoosh" of full force, it nailed the giant spider to the ground in the blink of an eye, whether it was range or power, both were much stronger than the Elf Archer. However, without any defense, facing the tide-like surging giant spiders, they were still caught off guard.
With the law rod in hand, the old fox tribe leader led several tribesmen to release a wave of fire walls, hoping to trap the giant spider crab in the cave. Unexpectedly, the dense and numerous giant spider crabs were fearless and crazy, rushing over with flames, some spitting out thick sulfuric acid-like venom, some diving underground to release wave-like ground thorns, and killing more than a dozen dog-headed people who were close by in the blink of an eye.
As more and more giant spiders emerged, their casualties grew heavier. A dog-headed man said in terror, "Elder, let's retreat! If we don't leave now, it'll be too late!"
Retreat?
Look at the terrified tribesmen, and then look at the increasingly close giant spider, the old fox tribe swallowed hard. This is the deepest part of the Tardon Valley, with steep cliffs on three sides, and there is no other way out except to return by the original road.
But going back the same way, after passing through the red forest, it's a rugged and difficult-to-traverse rocky area, where it's absolutely impossible to pass quickly, and definitely can't outrun the giant spider crab. So going back the same way is absolutely a dead end, gritting one's teeth and taking a risk, maybe trapping the giant spider crab in the mountain cave might still leave a glimmer of hope!
Realizing there was no way to retreat, the elder of the Fox tribe sent out a wave of flame that shot up into the sky, directing everyone to grit their teeth and hold on desperately, hoping to trap the giant spider in the mountain cave. But as more and more giant spiders emerged, the situation became increasingly dire.
