It had truly melted.
The solar essence gold penetrated the enormous heart without any resistance and fell to the ground.
After being pierced, no blood flowed from the heart. Instead, countless vital energies flowed out! These breaths, representing life, erupted from within as if spitting blood.
"I knew you'd know what to do."
Qi Tian, at this moment, also adopted a look of profound understanding. "See? It's done, isn't it?"
"Today, you're making me feel particularly inclined to punch you."
Lin Xiao let out a soft hum, reached out, and with a pull, the solar essence gold came into his hand. The vital energies were temporarily preserved by the Eight Trigrams Formation.
The black mist surrounding the heart vanished as the heart was pierced, leaving the massive organ lying there.
Lin Xiao weighed the solar essence gold in his hand, finding it quite useful.
"Deal with this, then let's make haste. I'll contact Old Heavenly Master first," Lin Xiao said to Qi Tian, who was already eager to start, referring to the enormous heart on the ground.
"Alright!"
With that, Qi Tian began to meticulously examine the object. However, he currently had no means to cut into it, and even if he could, it wasn't something he could cleave open.
"Old Heavenly Master," Lin Xiao got straight to the point, the situation being urgent and every second precious. "The millennia-great tribulation you've been hiding from me all along?"
"It seems, young friend Lin, you've learned about this matter through other channels. Indeed, I wanted you to grow a bit more before this. Sometimes, knowing too much doesn't benefit oneself."
The Old Heavenly Master narrowed his eyes and looked towards the east.
"I couldn't *not* know. Right now, there's an enormous heart before me," Lin Xiao said with a tone of helplessness.
"En?"
The Old Heavenly Master's voice immediately rose by three points. The teacup in his hand instantly shattered.
"Remember, don't act rashly. That thing..."
"It was pierced through."
"Yes, that thing... Hmm, pierced through?" The Old Heavenly Master's carefully prepared words abruptly stopped.
"Yes, it was pierced through. This heart has been continuously absorbing the life essence of the surrounding beings," Lin Xiao said, looking at the heart lying on the ground. "Is this related to the millennia-great tribulation?"
"It is."
The Old Heavenly Master said, "Lin Xiao, bring that heart to Dragon Tiger Mountain."
"Alright."
The call ended. Lin Xiao began to ponder how to move the object. He said to Qi Tian, "How do you think we should transport this thing?"
Before Lin Xiao could finish speaking, countless black energies surged from the ground, and the heart, which had just been pierced, was once again enveloped by this dark mist.
The Eight Trigrams Formation spun rapidly, attempting to disperse the black fog, but within seconds, Zhuge Lan suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and the Eight Trigrams Formation was shattered!
"Trying to escape!"
Without a word, Lin Xiao grabbed the solar essence gold and smashed it towards the black smoke!
He absolutely would not let this thing escape again!
This time, the black mist formed a pair of hands. These hands clapped in the air, forcing the solar essence gold to the ground. In the next moment, just like before, the pulsating vibrations of the massive heart forced the three of them to take a step back simultaneously.
This single step was the heart's opportunity to escape!
In the blink of an eye, the thing burrowed underground.
