Occasionally, so Soul Devouring bees forcibly darted into this space.
But their bodies wobbled, moving at a snail’s pace, as if they were drunk, completely lacking any offensive capability.
"What, what kind of sinister magic is this?" Shen Ao was dumbfounded.
He was still arduously mobilizing his Spirit Platform to maintain the defense, and even his frequency of attacks had decreased significantly, as the Spiritual Essence was depleting too quickly.
At this rate, let alone a whole day and night of bravado, he feared he couldn’t last even half a day.
In contrast to him, Lou Yi strolled among the swarm of bees as if taking a leisurely walk, without showing any sign of mobilizing Spiritual Essence, neither moving hands nor feet.
Wherever he went, it seed as though a trendous repulsive force followed, pushing all the Soul Devouring bees to the other side.
Lou Yi walked to Xin Zhiqi’s side, sending the Soul Devouring bees that had been entangling her dozens of feet away.
Xin Zhiqi instantly felt a sense of relief and thanked Lou Yi, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Liu, for your rescue."
The na Lou Yi gave as the Red Hero was Liu Shu, and after getting acquainted, Xin Zhiqi always referred to him as Fellow Daoist Liu.
The rest of the Soul Devouring bees, which had been targeting Lou Yi and Xin Zhiqi, now aid their stingers at Shen Ao and the others.
"Damn it..." Shen Ao was so anxious he wanted to curse.
In such a case, wouldn’t the speed at which he consud his Spiritual Essence be even faster?
So, for self-preservation, he had no choice but to reduce the coverage of Spiritual Essence that had been protecting Lu Ziyun and Jin Tingfeng.
Jin Tingfeng quickly picked up on this.
He thought to himself that his senior brother didn’t seem as relaxed as he appeared.
"Red Hero, I’m coming to find you!"
Jin Tingfeng shouted, his entire body radiating precious light, with his Spiritual Essence pushed to its limits.
Seven phantom azure dragons snarled and clawed, scattering the surrounding Soul Devouring bees, forcefully making their way to where Lou Yi’s empty space was.
"Ah, comfortable." Jin Tingfeng finally squeezed beside Lou Yi, letting out a long sigh of relief.
No longer needing to maintain his Spiritual Essence anxiously at all tis, fearing a single gap might let the Soul Devouring bees harm him, he felt a deep sense of security.
"Senior Brother Shen, Senior Brother Cao, Fairy Lu, hurry over!" Jin Tingfeng shouted.
Hearing this, the man in black armor and Lu Ziyun’s expressions were conflicted.
They weren’t fools, realizing that Shen Ao was struggling more and more.
In the face of life, how much was face worth?
Moreover, they had no deep enmity with Lou Yi, and their junior was being protected by that Red Hero.
After convincing themselves, the man in black armor and Lu Ziyun moved swiftly, imdiately leaving Shen Ao and coming to Lou Yi’s side.
Entering this peculiar space, everyone clicked their tongues in wonder.
They didn’t know how Lou Yi did it, but the surrounding void seed to carry a strange force, preventing those Soul Devouring bees from advancing even a step.
"Daoist Brother Shen, hurry over!" Lu Ziyun, not wanting to see her beloved injured, urged sharply.
But Shen Ao felt extrely awkward.
Just a mont ago, to embarrass Lou Yi, he demanded that Lou Yi admit his inferiority by calling him Daoist Brother.
Unexpectedly, in just a mont, was the boorang going to hit him instead?
’No, I, Shen Ao, will never yield!’ Shen Ao had a stubbornness far beyond ordinary people, which was one of the reasons he got this far.
’If I yield to him, how will I reach the heights of the Immortal Path in the future, how will I ascend the Golden Core Avenue?’ Shen Ao roared inwardly.
"Ah!"
He roared, his Spiritual Essence running at high speed, imdiately delivering dozens of punches around him, blasting the Soul Devouring bees apart.
"They can’t hurt !" Shen Ao still spoke confidently, his whole body glowing with the might of a descending deity.
But upon closer observation, one could see his body trembling slightly.
Evidently, that last attack was not easy, and even drastically reduced his ti of resistance.
Shen Ao felt a mix of regret and confusion, not knowing what to do.
He felt his bones and muscles aching from the constant high-speed circulation of Spiritual Essence, blood seeping from the surface of his skin, his head felt leaden, entirely relying on instinct to fight.
’Even if I were to be stung to death by the swarm, I would never...’
"Don’t push yourself."
At this mont, a gentle voice reached deep into Shen Ao’s heart.
’Pfft!’
He couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
His Spiritual Essence protection showed a significant flaw, with a large number of Soul Devouring bees swarming in, ready to engulf him.
"I..." Even though Shen Ao was on the brink of despair, he hesitated, montarily failing to articulate a second word.
’Whoosh!’
But Lou Yi had already flickered to his side, the Grandmaster Realm instantly enveloping him.
Pushing all the Soul Devouring bees away effortlessly, freeing Shen Ao from danger completely.
"I am indeed not as good as you." Shen Ao deliberated for a mont, finally uttering this sentence.
Upon saying it, he only felt an imnse relief and an overwhelming sense of security.
Damn, why did he insist on holding on for so long, wouldn’t it have been better to admit it earlier?
Alas, it really is better...
