Chapter 1292: Chapter 1289: Feigning Retreat to Lure the Enemy Chapter 1292: Chapter 1289: Feigning Retreat to Lure the Enemy “Indeed, that pool is a spiritual spring, reaching depths of four to five hundred feet. The very bottom, at the spring’s eye, is where that massive spatial rift lies, surrounded by many smaller spatial rifts. It is extrely dangerous. A re touch would suck one into it, leaving no place for one’s body to rest. But precisely because it is dangerous, it’s an excellent hiding place to escape to,” Purple Bamboo said.
Shen Luo’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing this, but now he had no other place to hide, so he had to head there.
With a speed akin to lightning, he made a whooshing sound as he flew over the pool and, without any hesitation, plunged into it, diving towards the depths below.
Just as Shen Luo’s figure disappeared, the Heaven Devouring Tiger, the Giant Power Ape, and the eight Earth Evil Corpse Kings arrived, about to pursue him into the pool.
“The spatial power at the depths of the pool is turbulent, with many spatial rifts, extrely dangerous. Stop the chase,” ca the distant voice of the Bald Big Man, and the Heaven Devouring Tiger and the others imdiately halted their pursuit.
“Master, my Divine Craftsman Cannon has been taken by that man. We must retrieve it!” the Earth Evil Corpse King wielding the Yancha Giant Crossbow urgently said.
“Don’t worry, once the Puppet City completes its evolution, not just this kid, but everyone who has entered the Black Abyss Mystical Cave will die. What’s most important now is the Puppet City. Don’t create unnecessary complications,” the Bald Big Man said in a deep voice.
After saying this, he stamped on the Puppet City once again, and a beam of yellow crystal light about a zhang thick shot out from within, striking a section of the cave wall near the pool.
The cave wall was covered with brass-colored tal, appearing to be so extrely precious tal-type spiritual material. The yellow light from the Puppet City disappeared into it, and the brass spiritual material imdiately ca to life, swarming outward and rapidly transforming.
This was the divine power of the Puppet City, capable of turning all things in the world into dolls!
In the space of two or three breaths, all the brass spiritual material on that cave wall had co loose, forming a massive brass city. It looked like another Puppet City.
With a thunderous “boom,” the brass city fell heavily onto the ground above the pool, pressing down on the pool and the nearby ground firmly.
The yellow crystal light from the Puppet City continued to pour into the brass city unceasingly.
Yancha spirit patterns shot from the brass city, spreading quickly across the surrounding ground. Soon, it covered a large area in the depths of the spirit cave, forming an enormous array that spanned several acres.
Dazzling spiritual light shone from within the array, whirring into action. The brass city within the array also radiated skyward golden light, making it seem like a gigantic city of seals.
Only then did the Bald Big Man stop channeling the Puppet City, his complexion showing a tinge of paleness, indicating that all the actions he had just taken were not easy on him.
The spiritual light atop the Puppet City also diminished sowhat, and its aura decreased as well.
“With this Sealed Copper City established, that kid, no matter how formidable he might be, will not co out. Continue to guard every part of the spirit cave; kill anyone who trespasses!” the Bald Big Man commanded coldly.
The eight Female Corpse Kings rose to acknowledge the command, and the Heaven Devouring Tiger and Giant Power Ape also let out low growls before spreading out in the spirit cave.
The Bald Big Man continued to channel the Puppet City, absorbing the dark-gold spiritual material from that cave wall. The power he lost suppressing Shen Luo quickly recovered and continued to grow.
…
Having entered the deep pool, Shen Luo rapidly dived downward and soon approached the bottom, where he stopped his descent.
His divine sense began to detect so small spatial rifts forming below, so clearly discernible, while others were fleetingly obscure, almost impossible to detect.
Under such circumstances, he dared not continue diving.
“The spatial rifts within the Spiritual Eye are both visible and concealed, with so completely hidden from view, and their locations continuously change. Brother Shen must be extrely careful,” Purple Bamboo also reminded.
Shen Luo nodded, and the golden light around him faded to reveal a layer of blue light that quickly spread out, forming a blue area a hundred feet in size.
The pool water in the space trembled slightly then returned to normal, and the blue light also disappeared without leaving any trace.
This divine power was a minor divine ability “Water Realm Technique” that ca with the Naless Cultivation Technique after reaching Great Mahayana Stage. It was not known for its powerful offensive capabilities but had a strong sealing effect. Anyone who stepped into the blue water realm would be restrained by the Water Realm Technique. Although it couldn’t completely seal the target, it could greatly affect the flow of their mana and physical movents.
However, this divine power had a major drawback; it had to be used in water to unveil its might. In places without water, the power of the Water Realm Technique would be greatly reduced, and the blue water realm was too conspicuous outside, easily seen at a glance. Only within the water could the blue light of the water realm blend in with the surrounding currents and conceal its presence.
Because of this drawback, Shen Luo had never used this technique until now.
After the Water Realm Technique was ford, Shen Luo activated his Invisibility Talisman and Soft Smoke Luo Brocade Clothing to again conceal his presence, waiting for the people above to co down in pursuit.
Yet, contrary to his expectations, a long ti passed, and no pursuers arrived.
“Has Ghost Yan given up?” Shen Luo wondered to himself, about to do sothing.
A loud “boom” echoed from above, and the light within the pool suddenly grew dim, with an enormous power descending from the sky.
The pool violently shook, water splashed wildly, and the Water Realm Technique was easily destroyed without a trace left behind.
Shen Luo’s body was pressed down by this imnse force, bending over, and in an instant, he couldn’t even move a little finger, his entire body rapidly descending three feet to stop beside a spatial rift about a yard long.
The spatial rift flickered with a faint light, barely missing his body.
Shen Luo’s pupils constricted to pinpoints as he desperately tried to activate the Huangting Technique to struggle, but the pressure was simply too great. No matter how he resisted, it was as futile as an ant shaking a tree, completely unable to move.
“Ha!” He attempted to summon several Magical Treasures by his side. The Bloodthirsty Flag and the Turtle Spirit Shield were also suppressed by this imnse prohibition force, unable to fly at all, but only the Thousand Cup Golden Goblet shone brightly in gold, slowly rising above his head.
Shen Luo’s face lit up with joy as he energized the prohibition within the Thousand Cup Golden Goblet. Golden rays of light poured down from above, forming a circular golden protective barrier.
The overwhelming force from above was imdiately counteracted by a large margin, and the remaining pressure, with his incredibly tough physique, was easily withstood.
Shen Luo took a deep breath and imdiately flew upwards against the protective shield, aiming to get as far away from the nearby spatial rift as possible.
But that imnse force ca with a strong sealing power that fused with the space, no matter how hard he tried to push the Thousand Cup Golden Goblet, he could only float upward bit by bit.
It took an entire quarter of an hour for Shen Luo to ascend half a yard, his body’s mana nearly exhausted, forcing him to stop.
“No wonder Ghost Yan didn’t co down after ; it seems he intends to suppress here, so I won’t interfere with his use of Puppet City to collect those dark gold tals, to enhance the power of Puppet City!” Shen Luo’s thoughts churned, understanding everything.
