"Lin'er, all I can do is help attract the attention of some god-tier demonic beasts!"
Ye Lingyuan muttered in his heart, a gentle smile blooming on his lips.
He, with his sword, charged towards the towering structure.
"Roar! Roar! Roar…"
Urgent beast roars erupted.
As Ye Lingyuan moved, the god-tier demonic beasts surrounding the tower swarmed towards him.
Xuanyuan Xun, who had been cautiously approaching the tower, his eyes glinting, suddenly rushed to its base.
He swiftly ascended, and following Zi Lingling's instructions, placed the God-tier Exploding Pill on the energy core on the north side.
At the same time, with a thought, he grasped the Overlord Spear.
The spear swept back, catching the god-tier flying demonic beasts by surprise and slaughtering a portion of them.
This was, of course, due to Ye Lingyuan drawing the attention of the god-tier flying demonic beasts.
With him engaging, Zi Lingling, Rong Guang, and Shangguan Yulin's pressure instantly eased.
The three took the opportunity to ascend the tower, placing their respective God-tier Exploding Pills in their designated positions, and then began to unleash their might.
With the five acting simultaneously, the nearby god-tier demonic beasts found themselves unable to cope with threats from all sides. Ye Lingyuan also seized the moment to successfully place his own God-tier Spirit Burst Pill.
The instant the five God-tier Exploding Pills were successfully placed, the primary array disk in Zi Lingling's hand sensed it.
Now!
Zi Lingling unleashed a Five Elements Burst, clearing a large area of god-tier demonic beasts around her, and then quickly manipulated the primary array disk.
Subsequently, the subsidiary array disks held by Ye Lingyuan, Xuanyuan Xun, Rong Guang, and Shangguan Yulin all lit up.
Each of the five, holding a weapon in one hand, channeled their elemental power into their array disks.
The five array disks rapidly ascended into the sky, guided by the primary array disk, instantly forming the Five Elements Great Array.
The Five Elements Great Array spun rapidly, trapping the Five Elements Reincarnation Pill within its center.
Then, five beams of light of different colors separated from the Five Elements Great Array, connecting the five God-tier Exploding Pills to the Five Elements Great Array.
"Channel spirit energy together!"
Zi Lingling shouted, unleashing another Five Elements Burst to clear the god-tier demonic beasts around her, then began channeling spirit energy towards the God-tier Exploding Pills.
Ye Lingyuan, Xuanyuan Che, Rong Guang, and Shangguan Yulin, at the same moment, unleashed their strongest attacks, clearing the demonic beasts around them and channeling spirit energy towards the God-tier Exploding Pills in their respective positions.
However, detonating the God-tier Exploding Pills required a certain amount of time.
As the five channeled their spirit energy, unable to disengage, the god-tier demonic beasts surged forward again.
Helplessly, the five could only use their soul power to control their weapons to automatically defend themselves.
But weapons were ultimately just weapons. Even with spirit artifacts as intermediaries, they lacked true divine essence.
Thus, the defenses of the five weapons soon became riddled with flaws.
"Pfft!"
"Pfft!"
Rong Guang and Shangguan Yulin spat out mouthfuls of blood in succession.
Just then, the energy within the God-tier Exploding Pills finally reached its critical point.
"Boom!"
A violent explosion shattered the entire bone tower.
The Five Elements Reincarnation Pill, located at the epicenter of the blast, was also pulverized into dust.
The spiritual energies of the five were drawn by the explosive force, catapulting them out like cannonballs, directly out of the encirclement of the god-tier demonic beasts.
"Pfft!"
The five simultaneously spat out blood.
But they had no time to regulate their breathing. They immediately grabbed their weapons and began to slay the surrounding god-tier demonic beasts.
Without the reincarnation power of the Five Elements Reincarnation Pill, the number of demonic beasts would no longer increase.
This meant that as long as the five of them survived, they would eventually be able to slaughter all these god-tier demonic beasts.
"Lin'er, look!"
Ye Lingyuan's sword strike not only killed a horde of demonic beasts but also carved a deep trench.
This trench precisely bisected the foundation of the original bone tower, revealing a small, circular altar.
The altar was not large, six feet square.
"Hold on for a bit, I'll check it out!"
Zi Lingling's Dragon Scale Dagger swept horizontally, slicing away a group of demonic beasts.
Her Phantom Dragon Steps shifted rapidly, and she was already standing atop the circular altar.
A formation!
There was a formation here!
The moment Zi Lingling landed on the altar, she immediately sensed the fluctuations of a formation.
Could this be… a teleportation array?
To confirm her suspicion, Zi Lingling sat cross-legged in the center of the altar and began to deduce the formation's purpose.
A moment later, she exclaimed with joy, "This is the teleportation array we've been searching for!"
Hearing that Zi Lingling had found the teleportation array, joy appeared on the faces of the other four.
Shangguan Yulin urged, "Since we've found it, let's leave here quickly!"
It wasn't that he was impatient, but rather that the god-tier demonic beasts surrounding them were increasing in number, and he was already struggling to cope.
Rong Guang echoed, "Brother Shangguan is right! The god-tier demonic beasts closing in are becoming more numerous; it is only wise for us to depart swiftly."
Xuanyuan Xun also said, "Miss Zi, the mission is paramount!"
What he referred to as the mission was naturally the matter of the sealed land.
Zi Lingling nodded and said, "It will take another quarter of an hour to activate the formation."
Then, she said to Ye Lingyuan, "Quickly summon the Four Ancient Fierce Beasts!"
After speaking, she also began to summon Long'er and the Winged Phantom Tiger.
With some contracts, she easily contacted the two beasts.
However, due to the slight distance, it would take about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea for the two beasts to return.
On Ye Lingyuan's side, he had already contacted Qiongqi, Taotie, Taowu, and Hundun.
But because the Four Ancient Fierce Beasts were already in a frenzied battle, Ye Lingyuan had to use his contractual power to forcefully summon them back.
Therefore, their return also required about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.
After completing the summons, Zi Lingling and Ye Lingyuan once again plunged into the horde of god-tier demonic beasts, weapons in hand.
"Hold on for another quarter of an hour!"
Zi Lingling shouted, unleashing another blade of light with a wave of her hand, secretly vowing, "After tonight, I will definitely set up a summoning formation within the contract space!"
A cup of tea later, Long'er, Little Tiger, and the Four Ancient Fierce Beasts finally appeared before the five.
Zi Lingling seized the opportunity to throw hundreds of high-grade spirit stones onto the circular altar, shouting, "Prepare to retreat into the teleportation array!"
As she spoke, she directly retracted Long'er and Little Tiger into her contract space.
On the other side, the Four Ancient Fierce Beasts were also forcefully retracted into Ye Lingyuan's contract space after a fierce struggle.
Zi Lingling put away her Dragon Scale Dagger and said to the others, "I'll count to five, and we'll retreat together!"
"Ye Lingyuan, you'll cover me when we retreat!"
She finished speaking and began to form hand seals.
Her eyes had lost their whites, leaving only pitch-black pupils. Within that darkness, two circular disks were clearly reflected – the sun in her left eye, and the moon in her right!
