Chapter 374 The Action

After hearing the loud noise and no further commotion, Su Xi and the others ran forward without hesitation.

They didn't know what had happened, but they knew this was not the time to dwell on it.

Only by resolving this issue first could they prevent the Lord of the Universe from exploiting any vulnerabilities.

As they moved forward, the surrounding soldiers who witnessed this scene immediately tensed up.

That person had gone mad again.

However, if these individuals truly appeared, they would be no match for them. It had taken so much effort to capture this person previously.

Just as they were considering whether to report the situation, they suddenly realized the problem before them was different.

They felt as if their heads had split open, and their bodies were uncontrollably torn in half.

What should they do?

The current situation left them bewildered as to what was happening.

However, Su Xi paid no mind to whatever was happening with them. After dealing with them, she quickly continued onward.

The moment these individuals appeared before her, she felt a sense of familiarity.

That roar… it sounded somewhat familiar?

"What's wrong?" Lin Qing asked Su Xi, puzzled.

They were about to reach the main hall, and if they didn't act quickly, they might be discovered.

Hearing Lin Qing's words, Su Xi replied, "You all continue forward and deal with these people. Once they are resolved, it will be much easier to deal with the Lord of the Universe."

After speaking, Su Xi looked towards a nearby direction and said, "I'm going to see what's over there."

With that, Su Xi's figure blurred, and she headed directly towards a high ground nearby.

As they made their move, Su Xi quickly arrived on the platform.

Although these things were still here, they could not be obtained at the moment.

The platform was massive, with countless fluctuations of magical power surrounding it.

The instant these magical power fluctuations appeared, countless killing intents erupted.

Although Su Xi had not personally experienced it, she knew that if she entered now, she would undoubtedly face utter destruction.

It seemed that the person imprisoned here was truly not simple.

After all, ordinary people wouldn't waste so much time and effort to create such a seal. This indicated that this place held significant issues, and possibly unique individuals.

They were precisely in need of acting against these people now, so causing trouble for the Lord of the Universe was something they were more than willing to do.

As Su Xi looked at the seal before her, she knew the formation was formidable, but not insurmountable.

She looked at the area in front of her and suddenly said, "I have no choice but to use this move now."

Su Xi finished speaking, then took out a thin thread from her person and wrapped it around everything around her.

As she enshrouded everything, countless ripples began to spread outwards.

Accompanied by these ripples, the surrounding tower soon emitted a series of sounds.

As this sound appeared, the aura around the tower instantly vanished, making it appear like an ordinary tower.

Discovering this, Su Xi quickly saw this scene and was instantly filled with a hint of surprise.

Since the seal was gone, why hadn't the thing inside come out yet?

Driven by curiosity, Su Xi walked into the formation.

As she entered the formation, a series of energies soon emerged.

Within this powerful aura, she felt an overwhelming sense of excitement, her blood boiling.

What was happening?

Feeling the changes in her body, Su Xi was suddenly at a loss as to what was occurring.

Then, countless energies surged towards her once more.

Within this intense aura, a contemplative expression appeared on her face.

Someone was indeed here.

With this thought, Su Xi pushed open the door and stepped inside.

Upon entering, she saw a disheveled man tied to a snow-white pillar. The pillar was emitting multi-colored light, continuously draining the man's energy.

At this moment, the man's energy was gradually being absorbed.

In just a short while, Su Xi recognized the man before her as the Heavenly Stellar True Master, who had been missing for a long time.

"Ancestor Master?"

With this thought, Su Xi could not let her Ancestor Master remain suspended in the air.

Without hesitation, she moved towards the Heavenly Stellar True Master, intending to rescue him.

However, before she could get far, she felt a powerful gravitational pull that firmly ensnared her, rendering her immobile.

Furthermore, she felt her magical power being continuously siphoned away by this pull.

"Leave quickly." Seeing Su Xi fall into a trap, the Heavenly Stellar True Master said, struggling against his exhaustion.

He knew that those people had captured him, but not killed him, precisely to lure Su Xi.

He had fainted earlier due to exhaustion and had not been able to warn Su Xi in time.

Hearing the Heavenly Stellar True Master's warning, Su Xi quickly replied, "Ancestor Master, how could I possibly leave you to suffer here?"

Su Xi, enduring the discomfort in her body, began to approach the Heavenly Stellar True Master.

She knew that the Heavenly Stellar True Master's energy was being completely absorbed, but if there was even a trace of energy left, he could wield his magical power and break free from the current defenses.

"Pfft!"

The chains on the wall, in an attempt to stop Su Xi from approaching, began to swing.

As they swung, blood instantly spurted from Su Xi's mouth.

Yet, even severely wounded, Su Xi did not falter. Instead, she fed a pill from her hand into Su Xi's mouth.

As the pill was swallowed, a powerful surge of energy began to manifest in the air.

Hum~

A series of waves echoed through the sky, and countless lights erupted.

As the light appeared, the surrounding iron chains began to clank loudly. It seemed they could no longer withstand this power, and all the chains snapped.

After the chains broke, they coldly fixed their gaze in a certain direction ahead.

These people had wasted so much of their time; there was no need for them to live any longer.

Seeing Su Xi before him, the Heavenly Stellar True Master slowly infused his magical power into Su Xi's body.

As Su Xi's body was nourished by the magical power, she quickly recovered.

When she opened her eyes and saw the Heavenly Stellar True Master, she slowly asked, "Ancestor Master, are you alright?"

"I am fine," the Heavenly Stellar True Master shook his head, indicating he was unharmed.

He had merely been drained of his magical power, and those people had given him no chance to recover, which had caused him to age.

But with Su Xi's magical power infused into his body, he no longer needed to be trapped and naturally broke free.

Seeing that the Heavenly Stellar True Master had recovered, Su Xi became even more excited.

With the Heavenly Stellar True Master's help, their chances of victory would surely increase.

At this moment, however, the Heavenly Stellar True Master showed no signs of relaxation. He turned his gaze towards a certain direction ahead and said, "You've been watching for so long, isn't it time for you to come out?"

"Someone's here?" Hearing the Heavenly Stellar True Master's words, Su Xi immediately looked in the direction he was indicating.

But there was nothing there, not even a trace of anyone having been present.

Just as Su Xi thought perhaps the Heavenly Stellar True Master was mistaken, she suddenly heard a cold laugh.

"I truly didn't expect you to have such keen senses."

As soon as the voice finished, a black figure quickly emerged.

This person had their entire face wrapped in black cloth, making it impossible to see the expression in their eyes. Even more surprisingly, their eyes held a cold glint.

That cold glint was like a sharp sword; just a glance made Su Xi gasp in surprise.

So powerful.

This was the first time she had encountered someone so formidable.

However, she couldn't understand when the Lord of the Universe had acquired such a powerful subordinate.

The Heavenly Stellar True Master looked at the black-clothed man before him, laughed coldly, and then said, "Your opponent is me. Let's have a proper spar now."

At this moment, the most important thing for them was to deal with this person first.

Previously, this person had used all sorts of schemes and tricks to capture him, but now that he had the opportunity, he certainly wouldn't let him live.

The black-clothed man heard the Heavenly Stellar True Master's words and chuckled coldly, "Do you think you're still my match now?"

"We'll know after trying," the Heavenly Stellar True Master's body immediately manifested twelve divine swords. As these divine swords appeared, various lights flared around.

With this intense pressure, the surrounding tower was instantly reduced to ruins.

Seeing this, the black figure remained unconcerned.

The dust falling from the sky did not land on the black-clothed man but was blown away from the side.

Looking at the wind before her, Su Xi's eyes grew serious.

It appeared effortless, but it was by no means easy to achieve.

"You go deal with the others," the Heavenly Stellar True Master secretly transmitted to Su Xi.

At this moment, she knew very well that there were many people surrounding them, so dealing with them would not be simple.

Therefore, to avoid alerting the enemy, speed was paramount.

Su Xi also knew that staying here would be of no help. She quickly ran forward.

She had to control the situation ahead to prevent people from being able to act.

However, Su Xi had not run far before she discovered that everything around her was extremely strange.

Although the surroundings looked normal, they bore no resemblance to their previous appearance.

The robots that were originally present were nowhere to be found.

Apart from the sound of the wind, there was no trace of anything having existed.
