“Good opportunity.”
Qin Chen was worried about not having the chance to destroy the reincarnation altar, so he immediately made his move. With a single punch, he unleashed an endless power of Spatial Law, and Old Yuan also infused a trace of his strength into it, striking the altar together with a sky full of brilliance. Boom!
With a loud roar, the restraints broke apart, and the entire altar was instantly shattered, revealing cracks.
“Kill!” At that moment, Qin Chen directly activated the Demon Tribe’s technique, a chilling power surged in, accompanied by the power of the Demon Tribe’s Law, flooding into the reincarnation altar's interior in an instant. Crack!
The structure within the reincarnation altar was immediately destroyed. This destruction was different from external damage; it tore apart the interior as well, making it almost impossible to repair.
After the altar was shattered, everyone's faces showed a look of exhilaration, but soon after, they all bitterly smiled. Even if they destroyed this reincarnation altar, it only meant that the Ji family wouldn’t have the chance to seize their bodies, but escaping safely from here was still impossible.
“Everyone, if you want to escape, it’s not entirely without a way.” Just then, a rumbling voice suddenly echoed in the stone chamber.
“Who, who is speaking?” Everyone looked around, trying to find the source of the ancient voice.
“No need to search, you won’t find me. As for who I am? Hehe, I just saved you a moment ago. How could you forget so quickly?” Everyone was startled, and someone exclaimed, “Are you the one who just killed those many Demon Tribe souls for us?”
“Indeed, that is me!”
“Senior, do you have a way for us to escape?” After Old Yuan had swiftly killed so many Demon Tribe souls, everyone was immensely convinced of him, and they all asked eagerly, revealing their ecstatic expressions.
“Hehe, there is a way, but it is not absolute. When the stone door opens, I will make a move to block the Ji family’s Grand Elder and the others for you, but it will only be for a moment. You can take the opportunity to escape in different directions; perhaps there is a glimmer of hope. Beyond that, I cannot guarantee anything else.”
Everyone’s expressions changed. Even if this person could block the Grand Elder for a moment, there were so many powerful beings in the ancient castle; could they truly escape? Moreover, the ancestral land had barriers sealing it; with their cultivation, they couldn’t possibly break the restraints, right?
“I have already saved you, preventing you from being seized. How, do you still want me to fight for you? This is an opportunity, and whether you take it or not, I will not care. Well, the stone door outside will soon open. I will let you all carry a trace of the Demon Tribe's aura, pretending as if you have been seized, so that you will have time to react.”
As soon as the voice fell, a wave of demonic energy spontaneously filled the stone chamber, spreading to everyone. Instantly, the auras of the many Wuzong present turned cold, as if they had been possessed by the Demon Tribe.
“Alright, everyone, go out.” The ancient voice then disappeared.
“What should we do?” Everyone felt a bit nervous.
“We can only follow the instructions of this senior. Even if we can’t escape, it’s just death; it’s better than doing nothing.” Soon, everyone made their decision and walked toward the stone door. Boom! Someone punched the stone door directly, causing it to shake.
“Eh? So soon, some of our kin have recovered?” Outside the stone door, the Withered Demon Lord laughed.
Typically, after a Demon Tribe member possessed a body and adapted to it by devouring the warrior’s memories, it would take at least one or two hours. Who would have thought that this time, in just about an hour, someone had already completed the possession.
With a hand pressed against the stone door, it suddenly roared open.
“So many people?” Seeing a group of Wuzong behind the stone door, the Withered Demon Lord was momentarily stunned; it was indeed rare for so many to succeed in possession simultaneously.
