Healer Siyo pressed her fingers against Dao Yan’s palm, channeling a nearly invisible energy into the old man’s body. The energy was so gentle, it seemed to possess its own consciousness as it flowed through his blood vessels, tendons, and even the marrow of his bones.

Dao Yan, who had experienced all kinds of inner energy throughout his life, was utterly stunned. The energy flowing into his body was unlike any inner force he had ever encountered—it was far purer, smoother, and stronger. There was a strange warmth enveloping him, as though every cell in his body was undergoing rebirth.

Yet Dao Yan remained silent. He understood that Healer Siyo was no ordinary person. If someone so powerful was willing to heal him, then he had no right to question anything. Moreover, he suspected that Healer Siyo might be able to read his thoughts, so he chose not to let his mind wander too far.

In the stillness, accompanied only by his own breathing, Dao Yan felt the energy vortex within his da

    After each person had surrounded them, Qin Ho slowly stepped forward, then smiled at Wenli and Dantai Yinyi. His smile was a sneer, like a hungry beast seeing two valuable prey within its grasp. "As for the two of you, there's a special offer. If you two are willing to become my women, I will release you both. Or, if you don't want to be my women, you just need to surrender your purity, and serve me well. I guarantee you'll survive this place!" Those words flowed from his mouth like poison. The voice pierced the air, making the anger of everyone who heard it surge. "Insolent!" Wenli immediately leaped, using his palm to strike Qin Ho. His movement was swift, full of anger. He didn't hold back his strength. The power exploded from his body, creating a wave of pressure that circled in all directions. His gaze burned, not just because of the insult, but also because of the desire to destroy the arrogance that dared to touch their honor. Qin Ho met that palm strike with his own. BAA

    "Hahaha! Duanmu, I initially planned to deal with you after successfully eliminating Tian Chen. But it seems you'll continue to be by his side. So rather than wasting too much time, it's better to take care of you all at once!" Qin Ho said mockingly. His voice was sneering, as if he didn't consider anyone a real threat. His face was filled with satisfaction, as if he had orchestrated everything neatly from the shadows. "Duanmu, since you've become an obstacle for my young master, I'm forced to eliminate you!" A young man with a sturdy build grinned behind Qin Ho. His gaze was sharp, full of unusual pride. He stood with his chest puffed out, showing that he wasn't just an ordinary follower. Duanmu frowned. "Baobao, your young master? Who is the young master you're referring to?" "Hahaha, isn't this obvious?" Baobao glanced at Qin Ho with a respectful gaze. His laughter floated in the increasingly heavy air, creating ripples of pressure that spread around. So did Kunyi, and the other

    Tian Chen looked at Duanmu and the others. He understood what they were thinking. Their eyes held questions, and Tian Chen didn't delay answering them. "This place has very strange conditions. Everything that enters here will have its Qi energy absorbed. But because the absorption happens subtly, you didn't realize that the cause of your depleted stamina was due to your Qi being drained." The atmosphere fell silent for a moment. Those words were not just an explanation, but also a warning. The wind around them seemed to fall silent as well, as if listening to the secret that had just been revealed. Even the dry leaves fluttering from between the ruins slowly fell to the ground, as if time froze for a moment. Duanmu was slightly horrified by this. His eyes narrowed, his chest rising and falling faster. If their Qi was truly completely drained, they would die without realizing it. Slowly and silently, like a last breath stolen from behind the shadows of the ruins. Their death wouldn'

    As despair set in, and they didn't know how to overcome the soul bodies, Tian Chen appeared before Duanmu. A strikingly conspicuous Golden Flame enveloped his body. It didn't explode violently, but burned calmly with an undeniable radiance. The light from the flames glowed softly, yet the aura emanating from his body drastically altered the air temperature. The cold mist shrouding the ruins shifted away from him, as if repelled by a force incompatible with it. When the soul bodies were very close, just a few steps from pouncing on them, the creatures were instantly terrified at the sight of Tian Chen's golden flames. There were no screams, no words, but their movements slowed. What was initially a rapid dash now halted mid-air. Some even retreated slowly. This greatly surprised Duanmu, Wenli, Dantai Yinyi, and Dantai Ma'er. They had never seen the creatures react like this—especially just because of someone's aura. Tian Chen extended his hand. His movement was gentle, yet measured.

    When the two jumped, the soul body attacked again, this time faster than before. Without a sound, without warning, just a dark shadow sweeping through the air like an inevitable scythe of death. BAAANG!!! A violent collision occurred. Their bodies were thrown back like rag dolls, hurled incredibly far, even breaking through the five-hundred-meter mark. Their bodies slammed into the ancient buildings with resounding cracking sounds, destroying parts of the structures, and embedding themselves in piles of rubble like stones thrown into a clay wall. Dust billowed high. The crackling of stone and the collapse mingled with the hissing of curious souls still hovering. Wenli, even though he disliked them, was still very worried about the two. Dislike wasn't strong enough to extinguish the collective instinct that had once grown as a team. The next second he took a step forward, the intention to help already apparent in his movement, like a reflex growing from within without him realizing

    One of the spirit bodies attacked Wenli without warning. Its movement was swift and silent; only a dark shadow shot out like a spear. Duanmu, witnessing this, didn't remain idle. He immediately leaped and struck the spirit body with full force. The blow was unrestrained. The wave of his inner energy vibrated the air, striking like lightning from the heavens. BOOM!!! The energy from the blow exploded loudly, creating a shockwave that shattered piles of stones. The blast wind hit the ruins, sending dust and fragments of stone flying in all directions. But something was wrong. Duanmu's powerful blow didn't injure the spirit body. Instead, it merely passed through it, destroying the building behind it. The spirit body remained standing, unperturbed, then kicked Duanmu forward. The kick was formless, yet its power was real. Duanmu retreated several steps. His eyes narrowed sharply, his body bracing itself to prevent being thrown further. “Damn it, what kind of creature is that? If we
