The golden dragon phantom almost instantly protected his body, and the chilling aura was completely unable to get close to him.
The commotion inside was considerable, and those outside could hear it. Not only could they hear it, they could also feel it: something was in the room.
Qi Tian's three puppets suddenly stood before the door of this room.
"Who are you?! What do you want?!" As someone took a step forward and approached the door, their bodies were blocked by the puppets.
"Lin Xiao made a deal with me. He said to ensure that no one can enter this room at this time, no matter who they are or where they come from," Qi Tian said, word by word. He was guarding not only the door but also the windows.
As he spoke, his gaze remained fixed on the interior of the room.
This is so interesting...
As expected, by following Lin Xiao, he was able to witness many things he had never seen before. It was truly fascinating.
These cultivators, whether they practiced ancient martial arts, martial arts that lead to enlightenment, or the path of artifact refining like themselves, all had an underlying sense that the world was not as simple as it seemed.
Once they entered the divine realm, they understood that heaven and earth seemed to possess their own will.
They could even sense that the realm above the divine realm should be what the ancients called gods and immortals.
However, that was still within the scope of humanity.
But if gods and immortals could be real, then naturally, the Underworld might also be real.
And this chilling aura felt like the arrival of soul reapers from the Underworld.
This meant that Lin Xiao in the room was now facing soul reapers from the Underworld.
Were humans and ghosts about to fight?
Qi Tian found it increasingly interesting. It was a pity that he had promised Lin Xiao and couldn't enter. If he could, he would have loved to experience firsthand what a soul reaper was truly like.
If the current Lin Xiao knew what Qi Tian was thinking, he would gladly have let Qi Tian in to experience it. This entity completely ignored his cultivation. Even with the protection of the true dragon's energy, the chilling aura could still penetrate bit by bit. He had a premonition that if this thing touched him, his soul might be lost.
Just like the Dragon Lord currently, his body began to tremble uncontrollably.
Lin Xiao watched as wisps of white mist began to fly out from the top of the Dragon Lord's head.
The golden dragon circling above the Dragon Lord's body let out another roar!
After this roar, its body became even more transparent, and the white mist was forcibly pulled back into his body.
Here it comes.
Relying on the protection of the true dragon's energy, Lin Xiao waved his hand, pushing aside the true dragon's energy that enveloped the Dragon Lord. He held the silver needle in his hand, took a deep breath, and adjusted his state.
His spiritual power had not fully recovered, only about forty percent at most. He had never used the Nine Needles of Spring Return before, so he didn't know how much spiritual energy the ninth needle, the Soul Retrieval Needle, would consume.
According to the records, the ancestors of the Ning family, once they used this needle, paid at least twenty years of their lifespan.
However, no one had ever attempted to perform this needle purely with spiritual energy.
Time was running out, and the ninth needle in his hand was already deployed.
