Seven Gods Guardian: Gun King Mission

At this moment, the Thunder Emperor suddenly thought of something and asked the God anxiously, "What should we do with our army? If we all leave now, there will be no one to command and dispatch the troops. If an emergency occurs, won't it be chaos? If this continues, I'm afraid it will be a disaster sooner or later!"

Hearing this, the god slowed his pace slightly, turned around and said soothingly, "Don't worry! You know, large-scale mobilization of an entire army is not something that can be accomplished overnight. It often takes a considerable amount of time to arrange the deployment. Besides, don't you have many capable lieutenants under your command?"

"Now that you are temporarily away from the army, you can assign important tasks to your deputy generals and have them take command on your behalf. I believe they will live up to expectations and stabilize the situation." "Also, I have already arranged for counselors to accompany your deputy generals, so that accidents are less likely to occur."

After listening to the detailed explanation from the God of Heaven, Thunder Emperor's anxious heart finally settled down a little.

Immediately afterwards, everyone began to prepare to return to the original place through the previous space tunnel.

At this moment, the god suddenly turned to face our group and said sternly, "Alright, there's still time. Quickly release the remaining power within your bodies and return it to the source from which you absorbed it—the mysterious ruins."

Hearing this, he was filled with suspicion and couldn't help but ask, "Master God, why can't we just store all this power in the temple? Wouldn't that be more convenient? Why bother going all the way to the mysterious ruins?"

Facing his own doubts, the god frowned slightly and patiently explained: "The reason is that within that mysterious relic lies a complete and incomparably sophisticated ancient formation."

"Once you return the power that originally belonged here to the ruins, this formation will be reactivated and operational. By then, those demons will never be able to set foot inside, no matter how hard they try."

After a brief pause, the god continued, "As for why it can't be placed inside the temple, it's because the power within the temple and your own inherent power are extremely mutually exclusive."

"If we forcibly store this power within the temple, its defense mechanisms will automatically activate and expel it without hesitation. Therefore, the safest and most reliable approach is to return the power to the mysterious ruins."

"So that's how it is. Now I finally understand the situation." When the doubts in his heart were resolved, he did not dare to delay for a moment. He immediately followed the memory in his mind and rushed non-stop towards the mysterious ruins where he had previously absorbed the Qi Yuan Pearl in his body.

At the same time, the other people traveling with him made the same choice as he did. They all rode their horses like arrows, galloping towards the place deep in their memories.

Along the way, he keenly sensed something strange - due to the loss of the balance of power from the Great Demon God's Origin Crystal, he could clearly sense that the power contained in the Qi Yuan Pearl in his body was constantly expanding and growing.

At first, the swelling was only mild, making me feel a little bloated, but it did not cause any severe discomfort.

However, as time passed, the situation worsened. The powerful force originally concentrated in the Qi Yuan Pearl began to slowly spread to every corner of his body.

"What on earth happened? Why did it become like this? What's wrong with my body?" He continued on his way anxiously, thinking about the changes in his body with full of worry.

And at this moment, the feeling of the spreading power became more and more obvious, even to the point where it could not be ignored.

At this moment, I felt as if my whole body was tightly wrapped by an invisible pressure, and every inch of my skin was under tremendous tension, which was extremely painful.

"Oh my God! This is so damn terrible! My body can't take it anymore! I feel like I'm going to explode!"

At this moment, he truly felt that the power of the Qi Yuan Pearl in his body was expanding at an alarming speed. His whole body was like a balloon that was blown up and could explode at any time because it could not withstand this huge force.

In fact, recalling the scene when he had previously absorbed the Qi Yuan Pearl in that mysterious ruins, the current situation was completely different. Back then, after successfully absorbing the Qi Yuan Pearl, it took a considerable amount of time before his body gradually showed signs of swelling.

However, at this moment, only a short while had passed since he separated the Crystal of Origin, and the powerful force contained in the Qi Yuan Pearl in his body had already begun to expand impatiently.

Although I was full of doubts and confusion about this and didn't understand why it was so abnormal this time, this was obviously not the best time to think deeply about these issues.

So, I made a prompt decision and stopped dwelling on it. Instead, I quickened my pace and rushed all the way towards the relic that was still fresh in my mind.

Fortunately, there were no accidents or obstacles along the way.

With his amazing speed and agility, he rushed through numerous obstacles at lightning speed and soon arrived at his destination - the ruins.

Without any hesitation, he dismounted and rushed straight to the entrance of the ruins, and flashed in.

The moment I stepped into the ruins, an extremely familiar aura surged like a tide and rushed towards me.

At the same time, the power of the Qi Yuan Pearl, which was originally restless and constantly expanding in the body, seemed to be pulled by some mysterious force and actually became a little calmer.

Having noticed this change, I naturally would not miss this rare opportunity.

Without hesitation, he moved forward along the winding passage, approaching the core area of ​​the ruins step by step.

Finally, after a long journey, he arrived at the core area where the Qi Yuan Pearl was once absorbed.

Looking up, I saw a stone platform emitting a faint glow in the center.

"Great! This is it!" I couldn't contain my excitement and shouted anxiously.

As he spoke, he quickly formed seals with his hands and performed his unique secret technique, trying his best to force the Qi Yuan Pearl that was already ready to move out of his body. At the same time, he quickly controlled the Qi Yuan Pearl and placed it steadily on the stone platform.

After the huge power Qi Yuan bead was successfully separated from his body, an unprecedented sense of relief instantly spread throughout his body.

The originally heavy and depressed body seemed to have unloaded a huge burden, becoming light and comfortable.

However, at the same time, he clearly felt that his body no longer contained the boundless and surging energy it once did.

His gaze slowly fell on the Qi Yuan Pearl placed on the table. It quietly emitted a faint light, like a sleeping pearl.

Unconsciously, he clenched his fists tightly, feeling the tension in his muscles. Then, without hesitation, he said, "Although I have lost the Qi Yuan Pearl and the Lust Energy Ball, the remaining strength in my body is still enough to support me in the rest of the battle."

After taking a deep breath, he thought to himself, "Alright, there's no time to lose. I must hurry back to Huangyun City. Time is running out. Once the time is up, the soul swap will officially begin."

Thinking of this, he turned around and left without any hesitation.
