Chapter 978: Chapter 978: Gang Spirit!
Hearing these words, Zhou Yu’s expression faltered, visibly shaken.
Back when he was in the Starshine Tribe, Hei Gu had ntioned using his body as a sacrifice for the Gang Jin Gu in order to complete its final transformation.
He hadn’t expected the Clan Leader to say sothing similar now.
As the saying goes: it’s always wise to guard one’s heart against others.
Zhou Yu imdiately grew alert, a sense of caution rising within him.
The Clan Leader instantly noticed Zhou Yu’s change in deanor.
He quickly forced a bitter smile and said:
“Young friend Zhou, you need not be so nervous. What I an to say is this: the mother Gu of the Gang Jin Gu resides within my body. Just now, in order to break the array barrier, I had no choice but to infuse it with all my Essence Blood. Currently, the mother Gu of the Gang Jin Gu is in a condition similar to mine—on the verge of death.”
“This mother Gu of the Gang Jin Gu took our tribe centuries of resources to cultivate. The Gang Spirit within it is the key to its formidable defense.”
“Using our tribe’s secret technique, I can transfer the Gang Spirit within the mother Gu into your body. With it, you would be able to break through to the Seven Cauldrons Realm in a very short ti.”
“Rest assured, doing so will bring no harm to you.”
“On the contrary, if you choose not to use this thod, your Golden Cauldron Technique may remain stuck in the Six Cauldrons Realm for all your life, without any further breakthroughs.”
Hearing this, Zhou Yu froze, his eyes betraying a spark of hesitation and temptation.
If this was true, then it could bring unparalleled benefits for him.
Still, he couldn’t understand why the Clan Leader would offer him such a monuntal advantage.
Zhou Yu imdiately voiced his doubts aloud.
The Clan Leader replied with another bitter smile: “No one in our tribe excels in cultivating the Golden Cauldron Technique. The Gang Spirit is extrely domineering, and ordinary people cannot withstand the terrifying power it contains, so…”
Hearing this explanation, Zhou Yu nodded. He understood and, without any further hesitation, responded directly:
“If that’s the case, I agree.”
Just then, from outside the main hall, several terrifying auras suddenly erupted.
Huo Xing’s face changed instantly.
“Clan Leader, it’s bad—Hei Gu and his forces have broken in.”
The Clan Leader’s eyes flickered with cold determination.
“Huo Xing, activate the main hall’s defenses. No matter what, we must hold them off for another half an hour.”
“Understood.” Huo Xing imdiately stood up and rushed toward the upper levels.
Afterwards, the Clan Leader turned to Zhou Yu.
“Young friend Zhou, there’s no ti to waste. We must begin imdiately.”
Zhou Yu straightened his posture and nodded firmly.
“Alright.”
Seeing Zhou Yu’s agreent, the Clan Leader closed his eyes slowly.
In the next mont, a golden light flickered above his head. Monts later, a completely golden Gu insect erged from the crown of his head.
Even Zhou Yu, who had seen many Gu insects before, was montarily stunned.
The Gu insects he had encountered in the past were all vicious-looking and bone-chilling.
Yet, the Gu insect before him carried an indescribable beauty, as though it were a masterpiece ticulously crafted by a top-tier artist.
The only flaw was that this golden Gu insect seed weak, its aura feeble and lifeless.
“Is this the mother Gu of the Gang Jin Gu?”
Zhou Yu asked, startled.
The Clan Leader nodded.
“Yes.”
“Young friend Zhou, I will now extract the Gang Spirit from the mother Gu and transfer it to you. Activate the Golden Cauldron Technique imdiately to absorb it and advance your realm. I will do my utmost to act as your protector.”
Glancing at the Clan Leader’s sincerely determined expression, Zhou Yu hesitated no longer and gave a firm nod.
“Understood.”
The Clan Leader imdiately ford a series of intricate seals. Instantly, the previously immobilized mother Gu seed to co alive. Yet, from its mouth, it let out a mournful cry of pain.
In the next instant, a tiny golden speck the size of a grain of rice floated out from its body.
As soon as this golden speck appeared, Zhou Yu sensed the Golden Cauldron Technique within him begin circulating on its own, as though it were desperate and impatient.
It felt like a parched desert about to receive a long-awaited rainstorm.
Zhou Yu’s heart stirred. Without hesitation, he activated the cultivation technique, releasing a surge of power to draw the golden speck into his body.
As soon as the golden speck entered his body—
Bang!
A soundless explosion erupted.
In the next mont, the Gang Jin within Zhou Yu ignited like a pile of kindling, transforming instantly into an overwhelming blaze that engulfed every ridian and bone in his body…
While Zhou Yu was absorbing the Gang Spirit, another battle raged in the distance. The elder Tian Sheng, locked in a fierce duel with Lady Yin Luo, noticed his subordinates falling rapidly as Xu Rigang and others joined the fray.
Originally, twelve Late Saint Realm experts had joined the battle. Now, only seven remained standing, while the rest lay motionless on the ground.
At the sa ti, Tian Sheng also sensed Hei Gu leading Dark Domain experts to the main hall, only to be stopped outside.
In an instant, Tian Sheng discerned the Clan Leader’s plan.
“Hoping to pick us off one by one? There’s no chance!!!”
Tian Sheng bellowed furiously. Without hesitation, he took out a black pill dicine and swallowed it in one gulp.
The next mont, a terrifying black aura erupted from his body. His aura, too, increased exponentially.
Seeing this, Lady Yin Luo imdiately realized that Tian Sheng was ready to fight to the death.
She gritted her teeth and unleashed her full Gang Jin power, attempting to suppress Tian Sheng.
But now that he had consud the pill, Tian Sheng’s cultivation strength had noticeably risen.
Boom!
With just one punch, he sent Lady Yin Luo flying.
Blood welled up in Lady Yin Luo’s throat, and she spit out a mouthful of vivid crimson blood.
Having landed a decisive blow, Tian Sheng did not press the attack further. Instead, he roared:
“Our reinforcents have reached the hall’s exterior. Old Man will open the way for them now!”
“Until they enter, all of you are to use your Blood Spirit Pills and fight to the death!”
