Chapter 414: Midsummer Cage
The hunchbacked old man, Elder Niu, stroked the Dark Spirit Eye Tadpole in his hand, looked at Listen, and said, “Your spiritual power has been sealed, so don’t resist anymore. Realize the last value of life.
“Dark-Eyed Scorpion Tiger, treat those six units over there as your midnight snack tonight.
“Eat them quickly so that I can report it back to Young Master Zheng!”
Upon receiving its contractor’s order, the sharpness hidden in the shadows of the Dark-Eyed Scorpion Tiger’s scorpion tail poked out, and its black tail hook flashed.
Six hooked shadows with a layer of dark domain prototype launched an attack toward the four feys that Listen and Fei Qianqiong had summoned.
Fei Qianqiong’s face turned pale. The Dark-Eyed Scorpion Tiger’s attack even contained a layer of domain power.
His spiritual power had been sealed, so he could not even let the Mind-Controlling Silkworm Gu use Mind Wall Ribbon again even if he wanted to.
Could the Mind-Controlling Silkworm Gu really block this attack containing the domain power even if it used Mind Wall Ribbon?
Just as these six hooked shadows landed on the four feys, a fist-sized pink-purple embroidered ball-shaped flower appeared in the middle of the room out of nowhere. It gently swirled in the air, looking marvelous.
The six hooked shadows were pulled into the pink-purple embroidered ball-shaped flower and crushed by the layers of pink-purple petals.
A clear but unusually gentle voice sounded out of nowhere.
“What you just said is not right. There are more spirit qi fluctuations that you can’t see.”
Listen and Fei Qianqiong both thought that it was hard for them to escape this calamity but never expected things would take a turn for the better.
A pink-purple embroidered ball-shaped flower had actually saved both of them.
Listen instantly thought of Lin Yuan. He looked at this pink-purple embroidered ball-shaped flower, and his heart was filled with peace of mind.
Although it did not block in front of him, it was like an absolute defense. It had even taken away the power he had received from the opposite side while it was rotating beautifully.
The hunchbacked old man turned nervous and consumed a lot of spirit qi to control the Dark Spirit Eye Tadpole, letting its main eye hidden in the compound eyes light up. However, he found that he simply couldn’t see this pink-purple embroidered ball-shaped flower’s spiritual power fluctuation through its main eye.
Without even thinking, he drained the spiritual power in his body and provided almost all the spirit qi inside a pinnacle A-rank spirit qi professional’s body to this Dark-Eyed Scorpion Tiger that was about to reach Suzerain.
The Dark-Eyed Scorpion Tiger’s black insect armor instantly lit up and seemed to pull all the light in this room into the darkness before turning the world inside this room into a world of darkness.
The Dark-Eyed Scorpion Tiger’s tail shook with a strange frequency and finally plunged directly into the insect armor on its back.
The dark energy that was originally wrapped around the tail at the tip was frantically injected into the Dark-Eyed Scorpion Tiger’s body, causing the domain around the Dark-Eyed Scorpion Tiger to become even more solid. It was as if the back half of the Dark-Eyed Scorpion Tiger’s body had been hidden in the darkness.
Immediately after that, the Dark-Eyed Scorpion Tiger’s three black eye sockets suddenly condensed into three strange eyes with black vertical pupils that spun rapidly, as if adding to the domain power around it.
The domain power spread out all of a sudden from its original state of constant solidification and surrounded the spinning pink-purple embroidered ball-shaped flower in the air, trying to pull it completely into the dark domain.
An unusually gentle voice once again sounded out of thin air.
“You don’t have a domain until you reach Suzerain. Your Dark-Eyed Scorpion Tiger is only at Diamond X/Fantasy IV.
“Even if you reach the threshold of the domain, you can only grasp onto its form, but not its essence. Activating the domain to launch an attack is just attending to the minor, unimportant details while neglecting the essentials!”
The darkness domain that was constantly expanding had pulled the slowly rotating flower into it. However, based on the feedback from the Dark-Eyed Scorpion Tiger in the dark domain, Elder Niu found that the pink-purple embroidered ball-shaped flower still seemed to be non-existent in the domain.
He stared at it, and his voice was unusually grave.
“Who’s there!?”
Elder Niu’s heart had completely sunk while a feeling of absurdity arose.
He was a pinnacle king-cla.s.s expert. The only things that could escape his contracted Diamond VIII/Fantasy III Dark Spirit Eye Tadpole full-strength detection ability were Suzerain/Myth Breed feys. This Myth Breed fey must be at least Myth II, one good at stealth.
Elder Niu felt that even if the Dark Spirit Eye Tadpole couldn’t find the target’s existence, the Diamond X/Fantasy IV Dark-Eyed Scorpion Tiger’s domain could do so.
He had clearly been a raging hunter a few seconds ago, playing with two insignificant preys, but in the blink of an eye, the world had changed. He was the prey now.
An unusually gentle voice carried a hint of laughter.
“From the time you came into this room, I saw you being blatant. I was here earlier than you, yet you asked me who I am. I should be the one asking you that!”
Fei Qianqiong swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty. What was the background of the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce’s backer, the youth wearing the strange mask?
This Myth Breed fey was obviously not the one that had followed the masked youth during the day.
He was lucky enough to see two Suzerain/Myth Breed feys on the same day.
Since when were Suzerain/Myth Breed feys so worthless?
For some reason, the pink-purple embroidered ball-shaped flower that was spinning beautifully in mid-air didn’t show the slightest bit of aura, but its existence made him feel a suppression like a jack had been pressing on it.
Elder Niu shouted in a deep voice, “Your Excellency, the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce is something that my Zheng family aspires to obtain. Listen is also someone that my Zheng family wants to kill tonight.”
Just as Elder Niu uttered these words, a hint of coldness colored the unusually gentle voice.
“Can’t I keep the item that the Zheng family aspires to get and the person who it wants to kill?”
This unusually gentle voice fell, and the lightly rotating pink-purple embroidered ball-shaped flower in mid-air suddenly bloomed into bright pink radiance.
Countless pink-purple petals poured out of the embroidered ball-shaped flower and danced in the air.
The petals were graceful, like the rainbow-colored clothes worn by the Eight Immortals, and had a tinge of deep midsummer.
At that moment, a gentle, soft voice sounded.
“Midsummer Cage!”
