Chapter 1878 - Double Suppression
The method Jianxin spoke of was to activate the origin energy of the "Illusory Sword Heavenly Palace" and completely cut off all contact between the cave and the outside world.
However, in order to block the aura of the Darkness Mark, it was necessary to maintain this state for a long time, and the origin energy within the cave would be constantly consumed. According to Jianxin"s judgement, it would only take two to three years before the cave would be even more shattered than it had been in the lower realms. If Jianxin could hold on any longer, the cave would probably completely disappear.
Using this kind of price to exchange for two to three years of time, Tang Huan naturally wouldn"t be willing to do so. After all, this wasn"t the time for life and death to come.
The best way was still to thoroughly refine the Darkness Mark within his and the nine spirits.
As for the "Spirit Chasing Golden Ants", he could just let them all leave. Amongst the ants, there should only be a few Sky King who are in danger. Even if those Dragon Clan s saw the marquis" ant, they would probably ignore it.
Without the guidance of the Dark Mark, it was fine even if the so-called "Dragon G.o.d" got angry, he could just hide inside the cave.
In a blink of an eye, Nine Spirits and Ant King were summoned by Tang Huan once again.
"Big brother?" Jiu Ling"s gaze was full of curiosity, while the Ant King was also looking at Tang Huan.
"It can"t be isolated."
Tang Huan shook her head, causing the Ant King to become extremely disappointed. Tang Huan did not explain any further, and looked at the Ant King in the blink of an eye, "I will let you guys go, you guys go on your own paths of survival."
"Thank you, my lord."
The Ant King was stunned and was instantly pleasantly surprised.
This human cultivator in front of it had once resisted the power of the Dragon G.o.d, so the dark imprints were extremely strong and would definitely attract the Dragon Clan"s attention. If it was always under the control of this human, when he was killed by the Dragon Clan, not only him, the entire colony of ants would be killed by the Dragon Clan as well.
If they could distance themselves from these two humans, who were destined to die, the Golden Ants would definitely be able to survive. Even the ten of them who were the strongest would have a good chance of surviving five years.
Tang Huan did not reveal its little thoughts. With a slight thought, the "Primal Chaos Source Crystal" that was held in the nine spirits" hands came out from the crevice in a flash. At the same time, she also released the seal on the various tunnels.
"Zi la!"
The ant king made a sharp noise.
From within the chaos source crystal, over two hundred thousand giant ants flew out one after another. They didn"t pause for a moment, then fled to a distant place to give their companions a place to rest. In the blink of an eye, the golden color that permeated the entire mountain and plains filled Tang Huan"s line of sight.
At this moment, every "Spirit Chasing Golden Ant" that appeared had a large black imprint on its head.
"Big brother, are we really going to release them all?"
"We only need to control the Ant King and Queen, and then we can control the entire colony. At that time, we can send out all of these more than two hundred thousand ants to guard the colony, and if the Dragon Clan comes close, even if it"s tens of thousands of miles away, we will be able to receive the news."
Jiu Ling"s words were spoken without restraint, and without fear of being overheard by the ant king that was tens of meters away.
Sure enough, after Jiu Ling finished speaking, the ant king"s robust body s.h.i.+vered, and then secretly turned to look at Tang Huan.
"There"s no need."
Tang Huan laughed hoa.r.s.ely, "This group of Spirit Chasing Golden Ants are too weak. If we keep them on guard at the periphery, they wouldn"t be able to determine the strength of the Dragon Clan, and even if we spread the news back, it wouldn"t be of much help to us. If I were to control the ten Heavenly King Ants here, it would attract even more Dragon Clan"s attention. "
When the Ant King heard Tang Huan"s words, he seemed to secretly heave a sigh of relief. He hurriedly distanced himself far away from Tang Huan and the nine spirits, disappearing into the torrent of ants.
In less than half a quarter of an hour, that bright golden color finally disappeared from Tang Huan and the other nine spirits" sight.
With a thought, Tang Huan returned the chaos origin crystal to the crack in the stone and landed in her palm. After that, she looked at the nine spirits and said, "Don"t worry about that for now, let"s first enter the cave, then enter the chaos origin crystal and refine the Darkness Mark. Although the cave cannot isolate the aura of the Darkness Mark, it"s still possible to suppress it a little.
Under the double suppression, although it was still unable to stop the Qi from leaking out, it could still compress its spreading range to the maximum, allowing the Dragon Clan to only be able to sense the existence of the Darkness Mark when he drew near.
"Alright!"
Nine Spirits had no objections.
After a while, Tang Huan and the nine spirits all entered the Supreme Profound Hall of the "Illusory Sword Heavenly Palace." "Jianxin, find a secret place to hide for now."
After pa.s.sing down the information to Jianxin, Tang Huan and the nine spirits arrived at the center of the "Primal Chaos Origin Crystal".
In the midst of the mind instructs (in a second), Pang Shuo"s mental statue began to violently tremble. Boundless chaos energy surged out of the statue like raging waves and surged out in all directions, so dense that it seemed to solidify. In an instant, it filled up all the pa.s.sages.
Tang Huan and the Nine Spirits were in the midst of this vast primal chaos. The black imprint s.h.i.+ning brightly between their brows seemed to have become much dimmer.
"Jianxin, how is it now?"
Tang Huan transmitted a mind instructs (in a second) over to the spirit of the cave.
In the next moment, Tang Huan received a reply from Jianxin, "Master, the aura of your Darkness Mark has weakened greatly, so outside of a hundred miles, you need not worry about being discovered by the Dragon Clan."
"Very good!"
"With such an effect, Tang Huan was already very satisfied. Jianxin, I"ll have to trouble you to pay more attention to your surroundings during this period of time. " If she did not experience the dual suppression from the "Primal Chaos Source Crystals" and the "Illusory Sword Heavenly Palace", Dragon Clan would probably be able to sense the existence of his black imprint from thousands of miles away.
"Nine Spirits, you cultivate first."
Tang Huan warned, "I"ll refine my imprint first, then I"ll help you refine it." His imprint aura spread even further. If his imprint had already disappeared, leaving behind only the Nine Spirits, the distance between Dragon Clan and the "Myriad Sword Heavenly Diagram" would be less than five kilometers.
After a while, Tang Huan"s body had already merged with the mental statue.
Immediately after, he calmed his mind and focused. Inside the Dantian, the "Nine Yang Divine Furnace" and the Dao Nascent Soul began to circulate rapidly. And then, the G.o.d-Forging Crystal was pushed to the limit as well. Under his control, the power of the G.o.d Forging Crystal enveloped the Darkness Seal, and then the flames of the Chaos Dao roared as they shot upwards.
With the help of "Nine Yang Divine Furnace", Tang Huan was able to fully display the firepower of her Dao Fire.
Although that dark seal was incomparably stable, it was still formed from energy. Not too long after, the power of the Dragon G.o.d began to melt from the power of the "Chaos Dao Flame".
