Chapter 1023: Got It
Gu Bailu exclaimed in a low voice. The Crimson Spirit Pill, which was originally red, had already turned purple and was now turning black. It started to emit a thick black fog which drifted over.
Gu Bailu was delighted. “I’ll have the Night Lotus carry us over. Let’s look for the hair first.”
Gu Bailu took off the Night Lotus. “Let’s go.”
The thick fog emitted by the Night Lotus was exactly the same color as the black fog of the Crimson Spirit Pill. It was impossible to tell which was which.
Gu Bailu and Feng Qingtian were carried over. After searching for a long time, they finally found an unremarkable strand of hair floating in the air. Enveloped as it was in the black fog, it was a pain to find.
Thankfully, Gu Bailu had opened her Heavenly Eye.
“Soon?” The Archfiend sounded excited.
The Grand Tutor’s face was dark and focused. He ignored him.
When the pill spun so fast that it couldn’t be seen with the naked eye, the black fog suddenly withdrew, and the pill’s barrier exploded.
The Grand Tutor took a few steps back from the impact, blood oozing out of the corner of his mouth. “There’s a person’s aura. The pill isn’t happy.”
“Then, is it mature or not?” the Archfiend asked impatiently.
“It’s mature. It’s just that its temper is so bad that even I can’t hold it.”
“I’ll do it.” The Archfiend was about to take the supreme pill, which was now like a black, shiny fruit. It was only the size of a walnut, but it exuded immense spiritual power.
The moment the Archfiend stretched out his hand, the supreme pill started jumping everywhere.
“Archfiend, you can’t be forceful. It’s a little irritable after absorbing the aura. It’ll be fine after a while.”
Gu Bailu grabbed Feng Qingtian’s hand and said, “Break the barrier and steal it.”
“Ye Qi, Ye Ying, go!”
Following his shout, Feng Qingtian drew his Soul Separation Sword and slashed at the hair. The barrier shattered like a mirror.
The Archfiend’s eyes widened when he saw the barrier break. “How’s that possible? My barrier broke!”
Gu Bailu flew toward the supreme pill. She took off the Soul Collecting Bracelet and said, “Collect it!”
As she shouted, she started chanting.
The supreme pill sensed that the spiritual power in the air wasn’t pure at all, and was getting more and more impure. It bounced up and down like a little ball.
The Soul Collecting Bracelet turned into a golden bag and charged at the supreme pill.
“Got you.” Gu Bailu put the Soul Collecting Bracelet on her wrist again and grabbed Feng Qingtian’s hand. “Let’s go.”
Only then did the Archfiend and the others react. Even though they couldn’t see the other party, they released waves of super strong spiritual power to attack them.
Gu Bailu was protected in Feng Qingtian’s arms. He frowned in pain when the Archfiend’s spiritual power hit him.
“My lord, are you alright?”
All the invisibility runes on their hands dropped.
Seeing Feng Qingtian’s awful expression, Gu Bailu knew that he must be injured.
Ye Ying, Ye Qi, and Ah Luo surrounded Feng Qingtian and Gu Bailu. They were also injured and their clothes were torn.
The Archfiend had used all his strength to stop them.
“Close the door!”
The Rising Clouds Emperor roared, “Close the door! Don’t let them out!”
Feng Qingtian hurriedly said, “Teleport.”
Gu Bailu gritted her teeth. She really wanted to fight the Archfiend.
But she still endured it, knowing that this wasn’t the time to fight.
She took out a teleportation rune and threw it into the air, then jumped in with Feng Qingtian.
Ye Ying and the others were also very quick.
They disappeared in an instant.
“What’s going on? Weren’t all the teleportation spots destroyed?” the Archfiend roared at Xiao Jingyun.
