As soon as the golden dragon appeared, the air seemed to have solidified, and the spiritual energy in the surroundings seemed to have become even more viscous.
The true prowess of the Conferred God Kings of the Sky of Cloud Goblets was on full display.
Weng!
As soon as the golden dragon appeared, countless spirits immediately charged toward it, not hesitating to self-detonate. In an instant, spatial ripples began to form within the mountain stream.
Under the relentless attacks, Ao Feng's scales began to crack, and sinister wounds began to appear all over his body. Golden dragon blood dripped to the ground, creating a sizzling sound as the rocks on the ground were reduced to dust.
Hu!
A surge of dragon breath burst forth, and the dozens of phantasmagoric spirits in front of Ao Feng exploded simultaneously, creating an empty space in front of him.
Sou!
Ao Feng hurriedly dashed forward, but just as he was about to reach the Condensed Earth Essence, a light barrier suddenly appeared and blocked his path.
"It's a formation formed by the phantasmagoric spirits …"
Ao Feng's face turned livid as goosebumps appeared all over his body.
Not only did the phantasmagoric spirits possess their own consciousness, they were even able to work together to form a formation … This was truly beyond his imagination.
Ao Feng raised his claws and swung them down.
The light barrier shuddered as ripples appeared on it once more. Even with Ao Feng's full might, he was still unable to break through the formation before him.
"I don't believe this …"
Ao Feng's eyes reddened in agitation. If he could not break through the barrier now, everyone would be surrounded and killed by the phantasmagoric spirits. He would not be able to escape either!
Thus, he had to obtain the Condensed Earth Essence as soon as possible and return safely. Otherwise, all his efforts would be for naught!
Knowing how dangerous this place was, it would be nigh impossible for anyone to enter the Sky of Cloud Goblets again.
In other words, he only had one chance. He had to succeed!
Boom boom boom!
Under the relentless attacks of the phantasmagoric spirits, the light barrier continued to tremble, but he was unable to tear it apart.
Nevertheless, under the frenzied attacks of the phantasmagoric spirits, the light barrier began to grow thinner. Boundless soul energy began to seep into the surroundings.
Seeing this sight, Zhang Xuan was stunned for a moment before his eyes lit up in excitement. "It's not a formation. This light barrier is formed by the phantasmagoric spirits extracting the essence of their souls to form a cocoon …"
He had thought that it was a formation set up by the phantasmagoric spirits, but judging from the energy of the phantasmagoric spirits, that was not the case.
If his guess was right, it was because of the existence of the Condensed Earth Essence that these trees and flowers were born with spirituality. Because of this, the Condensed Earth Essence could be considered as their mother.
In order to protect the other party, countless phantasmagoric spirits had extracted the essence from their bodies, and over time, they had formed this protective barrier.
In other words …
This light film contained the essence of the Phantom Spirit race!
Absorbing ordinary phantasmal spirits can no longer improve my soul. If I absorb this … will it improve my soul further? Zhang Xuan wondered.
He had absorbed too many phantasmagoric spirits earlier, and ordinary soul energy was no longer sufficient for him to advance any further. Since these were all essences, they should be able to work on him.
Thinking of this, he casually slapped away the two Phantom Spirits that were close to him. Then, he moved closer to the light barrier. Indeed, he could feel that the energy that Ao Feng had shattered was of great help to his soul.
Just by absorbing a sliver of it, he had already undergone a huge transformation. If he were to absorb more of it, he would be able to advance his soul cultivation by leaps and bounds.
Good stuff!
Under Ao Feng's relentless attacks, layer after layer of the glowing barrier was being chipped away. Powerful soul energy gushed into the surroundings, and most of it was absorbed by the phantasmagoric spirits in the surroundings, making them even stronger than they were before.
"What a waste!"
Seeing how the phantasmagoric spirits were being absorbed by the phantasmagoric spirits, Zhang Xuan lamented in agony.
It would be a waste for the phantasmagoric spirits to absorb such a valuable treasure. If he were to absorb it himself, the benefits he would receive would be far greater than consuming the Condensed Earth Essence.
"This won't do. This is all mine!"
Unable to hold himself back any longer, Ao Feng walked over to the light barrier.
Boom boom boom!
The golden dragon in the sky continued its relentless assault, but the powerful backlash left its claws bleeding profusely. Under the relentless assault of the phantasmagoric spirits, its injuries were worsening. It was already reaching its limits, and it was on the verge of plummeting from the sky.
"I am indebted to the God Monarchs, and this is something that can help the God Monarchs advance their cultivation.
I won't give up on it … "Ao Feng roared with gritted teeth.
Most God Monarchs were conferred titles due to their guidance, but the God Monarchs of the Eastern Sky, Western Sky, and Eastern Sky were the Four Great Divine Beasts.
Their relationship with the God Monarchs was deeper!
Since the God Monarchs needed to advance their cultivation, even if it meant putting their lives on the line, they would find what they were looking for.
Ao Feng continued attacking furiously, but the backlash only grew stronger and stronger. More and more of his claws were shattering, and he was on the verge of collapsing.
With reddened eyes, Ao Feng knew that he had reached his limits. If he continued on like this, not only would he fail to obtain the Condensed Earth Essence, he might even lose his life here. Just as Ao Feng was about to stop, he saw a young man standing before the light barrier with a smile on his face.
"…"
Lowering his head, Ao Feng quickly recognized the young man.
He was the male God Monarch who had arrived at the end of the group.
"Don't worry about me. You can continue. I'll be leaving soon," the young man said with a friendly wave of his hand.
"…" Ao Feng staggered, and he nearly plummeted from the sky.
Brother!
In order to reach this light barrier, I was nearly killed by the phantasmagoric spirits. I'm still bleeding profusely even now …
Why aren't you wrinkling your clothes at all? And you're even smiling? What are you smiling for?
More importantly …
If you have such capability, you should have used it earlier. I'm already on the verge of death …
With a look of resentment on his face, Ao Feng continued looking at the young man, only to see the young man furiously absorbing the shattered light barrier around him.
The two massive phantasmagoric spirits roared furiously upon seeing that the young man was absorbing their strength. They immediately charged toward the young man.
"Be careful!"
Ao Feng shouted. However, before he could finish his words, the young man had already waved his hand casually.
Peng! Peng!
With two deep groans, the two phantasmagoric spirits were reduced to dust before being absorbed by the young man as well.
After doing all of this, the young man raised his head and said earnestly, "There's no need to look at me like that. Continue grabbing at the light barrier. It's already very thin at the moment. If you hurry up, you should be able to break it in less than ten minutes."
"Ten minutes …" Ao Feng spurted a mouthful of blood.
He had thought that the young man would be able to break it at any moment, but in the end, it would only take ten minutes …
I have already exhausted my life, but it turns out that I have only damaged less than a tenth of the light barrier?
How am I supposed to break it?
Ao Feng lowered his head, only to see that the young man had already absorbed all of the shattered light barrier. He looked at Ao Feng expectantly and said, "Continue … What are you waiting for?"
"Ahhh!"
Roaring furiously, Ao Feng used his hands and feet to grab at the light barrier once more, and yet another large piece of the light barrier was torn apart.
Zhang Xuan nodded in satisfaction as he continued absorbing the light barrier.
