"Unexpectedly, the Jade Token I left at this portal did not attract powerful reinforcents but instead brought a group of youngsters."
The Necro Spirit looked up at Jiang Chen and his companions, finally fixing his gaze on Yun Hai: "Little one, didn’t I tell you last ti to bring so strong individuals? Why did you bring a group of people weaker than even myself?"
"You... you’re the one who transmitted your voice in my mind last ti I ca in here?"
Yun Tao looked at the Necro Spirit in surprise.
"Precisely."
The Necro Spirit nodded gently.
Yun Tao’s expression turned awkward, and a hint of embarrassnt appeared in his eyes: "I... I thought it was my hallucination, who would’ve thought that the Necro Spirit here would have Spiritual Intelligence!"
The Necro Spirit was montarily stunned upon hearing this, showing a trace of helplessness in his expression. Indeed, who would have expected the Necro Spirit here to possess Spiritual Intelligence?
"May I ask."
Jiang Chen took a step forward, cupping his fist towards the group of Necro Spirits, focusing on the leading Necro Spirit: "Seniors, you..."
Halfway through his sentence, Jiang Chen suddenly didn’t know how to continue. Should he ask why they regained their Spiritual Intelligence, why they ca back to life? Wouldn’t that get him beaten by the crowd?
"Heh heh."
The leading Necro Spirit chuckled lightly: "We are the people of Linyang City, who once resisted the invasion of Extraterritorial Alien Races. I am Lu Zheng, the City Lord of Linyang City at that ti."
"Linyang City?! You are people from Linyang City, which was refined by the Extraterritorial Alien Race?!"
Yan Li’s face changed dramatically, his eyes filled with disbelief.
Jiang Chen and the others trembled deeply in their hearts, also finding it hard to believe as they looked at Lu Zheng.
"Refinent?"
Lu Zheng was slightly taken aback, then laughed: "So the later generations say our Linyang City was refined?"
"Isn’t that the case?"
Jiang Chen looked at Lu Zheng in surprise, no longer as wary as before. He greatly admired these heroic predecessors who resisted the invasion by the Extraterritorial Alien Race, reminding him of those on Yuan Star who perished resisting invasions.
"Not refinent but devouring. A king from the Extraterritorial Alien Race swallowed the entire Linyang City whole!"
Lu Zheng lightly shook his head, a trace of terror appearing in his eyes. One could imagine how terrified Lu Zheng must have been when ancient Linyang City was swallowed!
"Swallowed whole!?"
The shock in Jiang Chen and his companions’ eyes intensified, becoming even harder to believe.
"The king of the Extraterritorial Alien Race is like a Supre being; such abilities are beyond our comprehension."
Lu Zheng regained his composure, gently comforting Jiang Chen and the others, noticing their shock.
The group cald down, suppressing the shock in their hearts.
After glancing around, Jiang Chen keenly noticed that besides Lu Zheng, although other Necro Spirits had regained their strength, they hadn’t recovered their Spiritual Intelligence.
"They were originally mbers of my Linyang City’s City Guard Army. I regained my Spiritual Intelligence by drawing life from a strand of Sword Intent from Lord Ancestral Dragon and recruited them to help suppress the Extraterritorial Alien here."
Noticing Jiang Chen’s confusion, Lu Zheng explained softly.
"Sword Intent of Lord Ancestral Dragon!?"
"There’s still an Extraterritorial Alien here?!"
Jiang Chen and his companions exclaid. Yun Hai and the other two focused on the Sword Intent of Ancestral Dragon, instinctively looking at Jiang Chen, while Jiang Chen focused on the latter part.
"Indeed."
Noticing the shift in Yun Hai and the others’ gaze, Lu Zheng glowed, staring straight at Jiang Chen: "Little friend, I sense the aura of Lord Ancestral Dragon on you, so perhaps you’ve refined the Sword Intent outside?"
"I’ve absorbed the Sword Intent outside, but it hasn’t been refined yet."
Jiang Chen shook his head lightly, then his eyes changed suddenly when he noticed Lu Zheng’s eyes flash with fear when he said the Sword Intent had been absorbed, and relaxed when he finished his sentence.
This Lu Zheng...
Frowning slightly, a sense of alertness rose again in Jiang Chen’s heart. He positioned his hand behind his back, signaling Yan Hu.
Yan Hu’s expression shifted slightly, stepping slightly to the side to face Lu Zheng in a flanking position with Jiang Chen.
"Little friend, I have an unreasonable request, I hope you won’t refuse!"
Lu Zheng spoke softly, full of sincerity, but a trace of greed lurked in the depths of his eyes.
"Please go ahead, City Lord Lu."
Jiang Chen replied flatly, discreetly pulling Yan Li closer.
Yan Li was slightly stunned, casting a glance at Jiang Chen, and sensing the increased pulling force on his arm, he moved behind Jiang Chen, his eyes filled with doubt, but he didn’t voice it.
Jiang Chen used his body to block Lu Zheng’s view from noticing his actions.
Lu Zheng ignored Yan Li’s movent, looking at Jiang Chen with a slightly eager gaze: "Little friend, I wish to borrow the Sword Intent you’ve acquired to slay the Extraterritorial Alien suppressed here."
"Borrow the Sword Intent?"
Jiang Chen frowned a little, his eyes flickered as he asked softly: "Where is the Extraterritorial Alien here?"
"It’s sealed within the altar beneath your feet."
Lu Zheng pointed at the altar below Jiang Chen and his companions.
"What!?"
Yun Hai was startled, almost jumping up, but was halted by Jiang Chen grabbing his arm.
This scene caused Lu Zheng’s pupils to contract slightly, a trace of surprise in his eyes.
"Since the Extraterritorial Alien is sealed in the altar, there’s nothing to fear."
Jiang Chen spoke softly, his remark unclear as to whom it was directed.
Releasing Yun Hai, Jiang Chen examined the altar beneath his feet, stealthily probing it with his Divine Sense.
The altar was engraved with very ancient patterns, faintly emanating a familiar fluctuation to Jiang Chen.
This is... a suppression of the Great Dao?!
A look of astonishnt appeared in Jiang Chen’s eyes. The fluctuations on the altar were extrely similar to those he received from the Town Soul Stele.
However, the Town Soul Stele’s suppression mainly affected the Divine Soul, whereas the suppression on this altar was primarily directed at the physical body.
Beneath the altar, a body exuding a cold aura was etched with obscure patterns, seemingly existing to suppress this body.
A body?
Jiang Chen was moved, glancing at Lu Zheng, his eyes reflecting contemplation.
Could it be that Lu Zheng...
His pupils contracted, a terrifying speculation forming in Jiang Chen’s heart, filling him with dread.
No, there’s soone inside!
Suddenly, Jiang Chen’s expression changed again. Through the perception of his Divine Sense, there was a hidden oscillation within the obscure patterns under the altar.
The fluctuation was long and substantial, seemingly... a Primordial Spirit?!
Is there a refined Primordial Spirit suppressed here?!
A look of shock appeared in Jiang Chen’s eyes.
A Cultivator nurtures Primordial Spirit Power upon reaching the Divine Infant Realm. However, to truly form a Primordial Spirit, one must attain the Saint Realm, aning there’s a Saint’s Primordial Spirit here!
With this thought, Jiang Chen’s breathing beca heavy, his eyes displaying shock.
