Chapter 922: Chapter 462: The Terrifying Self Sacrifice Spirit Furnace_2

The bone dragon’s already agitated Soul Flame instantly solidified, and the next moment, one could see cracks rapidly appearing, spreading, and finally diffusing across the stifled Soul Flame, leading to its collapse.

The body of the bone dragon, which had been fully engaged in battle with Little Eight, became rigid almost instantly, then lost all its strength.

A deep blue spirit furnace with twin conical ears silently appeared above its head, and the shattered soul power transformed into specks of light, rapidly flowing into it.

Only Ming Xi knew the secret of the Self Sacrifice Spirit Furnace, so even her companions did not know that she had just undergone a gamble between life and death. They only knew that she, along with Little Eight and Little Evil, had killed a 9th Rank bone dragon. It was only because Little Eight felt something was wrong that he summoned Little Evil for Long Dangdang.

At this moment, everyone’s attention was more focused on the wraith altar. When they saw the gaps in the dark clouds in the sky gradually enlarging and merging into one, they realized that the wraith altar had been utterly destroyed. The wraith energy in the air clearly began to thin out. Although the dense wraith clouds in the distance were still drifting towards them, trying to replenish the local clouds, the destruction of this wraith altar would still affect the overall concentration of wraith energy.

Ming Xi’s figure did not reappear until this moment, the deep blue spirit furnace with twin conical ears directly entered her glabella. Her pretty face visibly took on a flush of red, her aura not only remained undiminished but also increased, with the fluctuations of Spiritual Power on her body notably intensifying, and even had a feeling of continuous climb.

Ling Menglu descended from the sky, her pretty face slightly pale, while Long Dangdang’s complexion was not good either. Using a skill like the Self Sacrifice Strike Holy Method was definitely a drain, to say nothing of the fact that he had also made a Sacrifice. But undoubtedly, the effect was excellent, from taking action to destroying the wraith altar, they had used less than ten minutes in total.

"Little Eight, Ming Xi is back. Prepare to retreat," Long Dangdang called out, then turned back to Qing Mann’s side.

Below Qing Mann’s feet, an array formation had already been engraved.

"Ready... Oh, Dangdang, you... really are... a violent... handsome man," she teased.

"Enough, please return," Long Dangdang responded, clearly unamused. Yet, his movements did not slow down, and with a flash behind his head, an Anchor of Time and Space appeared like a halo.

The Anchor of Time and Space slowly rose, slightly shrinking in the air. Under Long Kongkong’s control, it plunged into the ground array like a key, and at the same time, Long Dangdang’s Far Horizon Proximity Spirit Furnace appeared. A silvery glow had already swiftly arisen from the surface of the array as the Anchor of Time and Space descended.

"Retreat!" Long Dangdang called to his companions who had already returned to his side.

Tao Linlin retracted the Golden Demon Suppression Tree and was the first to step into the array. With a flash of silver light, he had already vanished. Next was Yue Li, who had just performed her self-created Ice-Fire Divine Needle super single-target Magic. Then Ling Menglu and Ming Xi stepped in, followed by Wang Changxin and Long Dangdang stepping into the array at last.

The silver light rapidly converged, and the silvery array patterns on the ground surged into the Anchor of Time and Space like a tide, eventually coalescing into a silver point of light, silently disappearing into the air, leaving no trace behind.

Meanwhile, in the area where the wraith altar once stood, a gap over five kilometers in diameter had appeared in the sky. Large swaths of sunlight poured down upon the earth, adding warmth to the cold Wraith Kingdom. And this trace of light continued to rapidly expand, the divine aura lingering long in the air, greatly depleting the thick wraith energy remaining in the atmosphere.

With a flicker of silver light, Long Dangdang and his companions had already appeared inside a cave.

This had been prepared in advance; the array Qing Mann had engraved was, in fact, a directional teleportation formation.

This was the best method Long Dangdang had found after numerous trials.

If they were to launch a surprise attack on the wraith altar, and if it were up to him to execute the teleportation afterward, it would require at least over five minutes of preparation time. This place was deep within the Wraith Empire and very close to Stone Gate City; five minutes were more than enough for the wraiths to take many actions. Through continuous exploration, he discovered that Qing Mann could completely replace him in engraving the directional teleportation array formation, which greatly simplified the process. With the full capacity of Qing Mann’s max-level watcher spirit furnace, it could be said that, at present, it was Long Dangdang’s most powerful spirit furnace. Mobilizing the Undiscovered Grotto Spirit Furnace and the Far Horizon Proximity Spirit Furnace came naturally, and coupled with the pull of the Anchor of Time and Space, the preparation time for teleportation could be reduced to a minimum. Of course, all of this was predicated on their ability to defeat the powerful wraiths guarding the wraith altar.

Without doubt, the first surprise attack was a success. Killing three 9th Rank powerful wraiths and destroying the wraith altar dealt a significant blow to the Wraith Kingdom.

Indeed, it was precisely because of their success that the true danger for them had just begun. As the saying goes, a single hair can move the whole body; the Wraith Kingdom, upon discovering the destruction of the wraith altar in its rear, would surely react swiftly, and what Long Dangdang and his companions had to do was to act fast and complete the next part of their plan with the utmost speed.

Inside the cave.

The golden array formation on the ground, already inscribed by Ling Menglu, was the first to be activated, and the soft white Slow Delay Domain bloomed once again, concealing all traces of their presence within the cave.

The group didn’t pause, each taking the top-tier natural treasures they had prepared and sitting down on the spot, beginning to restore their consumed spiritual power through meditation.

Just as Long Dangdang began to recover, he was somewhat surprised as he looked not far off to the side.

Ming Xi had already sat down cross-legged, but the clearly noticeable fluctuations of spiritual power emanating from her attracted everyone’s attention.

It was simply because the changes in her spiritual power were too obvious; streams of spiritual power were continually rising, spilling outwards and impossible to ignore.

"What’s happening?" Long Dangdang asked.

With a charming smile, Ming Xi replied, "My Self Sacrifice Spirit Furnace can devour the soul power of the powerful beings I kill. If their soul power is above mine, the excess portion will help the Self Sacrifice Spirit Furnace evolve while also having a certain nourishing effect on me. The Soul Flame of that bone dragon was very strong; my Self Sacrifice Spirit Furnace has evolved to 2nd Rank, and the spiritual power is nourishing me, so I should be close to 8th Rank now."

Tao Linlin said in shock, "Is it really that powerful? Your spirit furnace is too heaven-defying."

Ming Xi merely smiled, offered no further explanation, closed her eyes, and began to meditate, digesting her continuously rising spiritual power. She had only recently broken through to 7th Rank, and her spiritual power was the lowest among them all, but in just this short time, her spiritual power had increased by four levels and was still climbing, having reached the level of 7th Rank Level 7. Although she probably wouldn’t reach 8th Rank this time, she was certain that if she could devour the soul of a being at the level of the previous bone dragon, she would surely break through to 8th Rank.

Indeed, fortune favors the bold, and this time, she had won her bet.

Long Dangdang and Ling Menglu exchanged glances, and both their eyes flashed with concern.

In this world, energy is conserved. To gain such a massive increase was almost beyond belief, so the risks involved, or the price to be paid, must be enormous. Despite Ming Xi’s nonchalance, the deeper her calm, the more worried they became.

Long Dangdang recalled the situation when Little Eight had summoned Little Evil and immediately communicated with Little Eight to ask about its feelings at the time. He soon had his answer.
