A small casual cultivator!

Chapter 693 Difficulty

"Devil, you must die a happy death!"

"Even if I become a ghost, I won't let you go..."

Those monks were powerless to resist and could only use their last bit of strength to curse miserably.

More than 200,000 cultivators were sacrificed at once, although most of them were at a low level of Qi training, the difficulty was still unimaginable.

The sacrificial ceremony has begun, and the creepy symbol composed of many monks exudes the power of sacrifice.

Due to Shangguan Linglong's cultivation level, she could only maintain the sacrificial ceremony with difficulty.

It was too much of a stretch for her to preside over such a huge sacrifice.

Just as it began, the backlash came.

She felt as if she was being pressed down by a huge mountain. She couldn't breathe and had an unbearable feeling of suffocation.

Despite this, she only frowned slightly and sat quietly under the dragon egg.

The bronze golem was suspended between the palms, with strange red lines emerging from its body. The bloody streams formed by the sacrifices were sucked into its mouth, and then, according to Shangguan Linglong's request, a gray mist filled with soul power flowed out from the blood lines on its body.

The gray mist flowed back into the dragon egg like a waterfall, surrounding it with clouds and mist.

This process causes it to continuously surge out waves like a tidal wave, spreading in all directions.

However, it was blocked by the powerful magic array emitted by the array disk.

Fortunately, it is underground and isolated by the formation. Otherwise, if it were on the surface, even a Qi-refining cultivator a hundred miles away would be able to sense it, not to mention those who have achieved Foundation Establishment or Golden Elixir.

Adequate preparation saved her from a lot of trouble.

At this moment, under the isolation of the formation, the entire sacrificial site was airtight and not a single sound could spread out.

The monks inside kept struggling, making the entire strange symbol look alive, with countless hands grabbing at the crowd.

However, their cultivation had been wasted, which meant they were doomed to have no hope. They could only watch themselves becoming increasingly thinner and could only endure the pain of their soul power draining away.

In the dragon egg.

Lu Luan lay quietly. Although the vitality in his body gushed out like a spring, he did not move. The gray mist surged in from all directions and penetrated into his head through the center of his eyebrows.

Deep in the brain, in a gray space, a few wisps of smoke were intertwined, and an illusory face could barely be seen.

This is Lu Luan’s soul. Because his soul was damaged and its power dissipated for a long time, it is very fragile at this time.

Moreover, there are dozens of more illusory lines in the soul. These are cracks, and only a trace of soul power is left connecting them.

At this moment, as long as it is touched with the slightest force, this soul will completely split apart and disappear.

Now, his soul welcomed a nectar, and the gray fog came in and gathered towards it.

The weak soul power began to grow stronger little by little, and those shocking scars were also slowly recovering.

The power of the soul is getting stronger and stronger.

Although this change is subtle, it does exist.

"It's starting to work. As long as this guy can survive, Linglong, you still have a chance to break through the gold level..."

The woman stood nearby with a smile on her face. She was very sensitive to souls and could clearly feel that the soul in the dragon egg was gradually reviving.

However, when she looked at Shangguan Linglong, the smile on her face immediately disappeared as she stopped talking.

Because at this time Shangguan Linglong's breathing became heavier, and a look of discomfort appeared between her brows.

"Linglong, how are you?"

The woman asked worriedly.

"No...it's okay..."

Shangguan Linglong said with trembling lips.

But the forehead that was beginning to be covered with sweat was obviously not what she said.

Sacrificing so many people at once, the backlash she endured was too great. If it were any other Half-Step Golden Core cultivator, they would have been knocked unconscious by the backlash.

There was no other way. Since the sacrificed objects were too weak, they had to be sacrificed all at once, exchanging quantity for quality.

"Aunt Mei...you...what did you just say?"

Shangguan Linglong asked.

"This guy's soul is beginning to recover."

"Are you out of danger?" Shangguan Linglong asked again.

"Not yet. His soul is in a lost state, just like the last time you were underground. However, his condition is more serious. His soul has fainted. We need to wake him up first. Only when his consciousness returns, he will be out of danger temporarily."

The woman shook her head.

"understood."

Shangguan Linglong fell silent and used all her strength to drive the golem.

Time passes slowly.

In the cave, the sound contained in the strange symbol began to gradually become weaker, and the strength of the monks' struggle inside was also decreasing. Their vitality faded, and their minds became more and more blurred.

Finally, those with lower cultivation base could not hold on any longer, and they fell silent one after another, motionless.

Shangguan Linglong's energy was also consumed quickly, and she kept taking pills to recover.

A month passed.

Three months passed.

Half a year has passed...

In the dragon egg.

"What's wrong with me?"

Lu Luan only felt that he had slept for a very long time and only now woke up from a fog.

As his soul recovered, he finally regained some consciousness.

At this moment, there was darkness in front of his eyes, completely black, without a trace of light.

I can't feel anything, like a transparent person, I just know that I am still here.

This state is so wonderful that it is indescribable.

"I should be seriously injured and collapsed in the cave now."

He recalled his condition.

"No, with such severe injuries, I should be... dead..."

After being hit by the talisman, the entire right side of the body was almost blown away, and his internal organs were shattered into a pile.

It's like this, he doesn't think he can survive.

"That's not right. If I die, my soul will leave my body."

Lu Luan realized that this was not the case. Although he had never died, he had seen people die.

"Ok?"

"What is it?"

Suddenly, he felt a cool air flowing into his mind. It felt like lying in a mountain stream, very cool.

Moreover, in this cold "stream", he found that his consciousness was becoming clearer and clearer.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Dong dong!"

After an unknown amount of time, he began to have other feelings.

There was a faint thudding sound coming from my ear.

One sound after another, and getting louder and louder.

"Is this... my... heartbeat?"

"Dong dong dong..."

At this moment, all I could hear was the sound of dong dong, the rhythm was getting faster and faster, dong dong dong... deafening!

"boom!"

Stimulated by this sound, Lu Luan felt like something broke through his head, and suddenly he had a sense of sudden enlightenment as if he had broken out of a cage.

The heart represents the soul, and its beating means vitality. The sound of a beating heart can best awaken the soul of a dying person.

At this moment, Lu Luan felt the existence of the flesh.

"I am not dead after all."

Although he knew he was not dead, he was still very calm.

"Could it be that Spiritual Medicine Cave Heaven recovered my injuries bit by bit during the time I was unconscious?"

Lu Luan thought, although it always felt a little confusing, he couldn't think of anything else.

"My arms and legs grew out on their own?"

Although he couldn't open his eyes, he felt that his right hand and right leg, which had disappeared, had actually grown on his body.

This made him feel incredible.
