Xiao Chen could clearly feel the malice in the soul. It was like a tiger or a dragon, rushing towards him mercilessly.
He and Luo Ling each cast a few spells and hit the soul. But they soon realized how terrible the power of the demigod soul was. In the explosion just now, in order to offset the power of the Spirit Tower, he had consumed a lot of soul energy, but the remaining core power was still difficult to shake. Xiao Chen and his attacks were like fists hitting a sandbag. Although they delayed the opponent's actions, they did not really cause any damage to it.
Xiao Chen even felt his intention, and half of his skeleton body had been wrapped by the Forging Tower. That soul wanted to seize a new body! When it pounced in front of Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen released a shield, but the shield only blocked the soul for a moment before it broke through.
Seeing that the soul was about to rush into his head, Xiao Chen was ready to fight it in the meditation space.
At this time, a thin red petal appeared in front of Xiao Chen's eyes. The petal looked so weak that it had no power at all, but it made the dark green soul that was rushing forward suddenly stagnate. The red petal quickly stuck to the soul.
For a moment, Xiao Chen's eyes were filled with a bright red light, and an unknown energy burst out from the petals, actually splitting the soul in two.
The soul on the left turned a darker shade of green, while the soul on the right turned white.
After the red petals released their energy, they disappeared into the air. However, in a trance, Xiao Chen saw a beautiful figure passing by him.
"You owe me one..." A woman's voice sounded in his ear, "Remember, your only chance is to quietly open the magic circle on the ground."
"That's... Adriana?" Xiao Chen was surprised.
Most of the fiery red Lycoris radiata in Xiao Chen's meditation world withered all of a sudden, leaving only a few in the middle still blooming.
He suddenly realized that Adriana's "death" might not be that simple, otherwise why would she need to leave a bush of flowers in his meditation world
But he didn't have time to think about Adriana now, because the two souls in front of him were still confronting each other in the sky.
The two souls surged in the air and slowly began to evolve into human shapes. The energy that the petals had just released was not very strong, but it seemed to have accurately hit a key point in the soul, completely separating the two connected souls.
Xiao Chen and Luo Ling quickly retreated, distanced themselves from them, and put on layers of shields.
He wasn't quite sure why Adriana had asked him to open the magic circle on the ground, but he guessed it must have something to do with the two souls in the sky, and he thought he'd better do as she said.
He briefly explained the situation to Luo Ling, and the two began to quietly repair the magic circle that they had just disconnected.
The two souls in the air also formed two images. One was an elf wearing a wide robe, which was naturally Alderon, and the other was a human wizard wearing a wizard robe, whom Xiao Chen did not recognize.
When they were together, they seemed to be unable to transform into human form due to mutual interference and influence. After they separated, they restored their respective soul forms.
The two phantoms looked at each other with complicated emotions on their faces, including anger, disgust, and a kind of enlightenment.
The soul of Alderon looked up and scanned the room, then said, "This place was originally my prison. I never thought that after I was freed from my restraints, I would stay here for so long without knowing what was happening."
The logic of the elf's speech became much clearer, just like a madman with confused thinking suddenly became normal.
And the white human soul said: "Yes, we have been entangled with each other for thousands of years without knowing it. How does it feel to work for me? Hey, now my memory is clear. I didn't expect that you have improved the Light of Samsara to this extent. You are really a qualified Seven Towers Mage."
"Gregorio, I can't control my soul. I've been in chaos for so many years. It turns out that you've been causing trouble. You actually merged your soul with mine, turning me into a monster with a confused mind." The elf said, "However, if that woman Adriana hadn't separated us just now and took the opportunity to hurt me again, you would be just a remnant soul suppressed by me, and you would be just a little bit away from being completely assimilated by me."
Gregorio's soul said: "That's true, but the people who finally came here are from our Seven Towers, not from your City of God. Just accept the seal obediently."
"Now that I'm free, I don't have time to play with you guys here." Alderon's soul became clearer and clearer as he gathered more and more energy again.
Alderon didn't want to fight with these people. The magicians in the Seventh Tower always had many strange cards. The power contained in the two crystals also frightened him. He decided to leave here as soon as possible.
In his opinion, Gregorio in front of him was very weak, Xiao Chen and Luo Ling were not even saints. The two strange crystals were still entangled with his abandoned body and soul, and nothing could stop him.
The soul of Alderon stretched out his hand and drew a line in the air. A crack was created in the space. If he passed through it, he would directly reach the Elven Kingdom from here.
But as soon as his soul stepped into the gap, he found that a force was pulling his body from all directions, forcibly closing the gap and pulling him out.
He looked at the ground and saw runes moving on the walls. The huge restraining magic circle in the room began to brighten slowly at some point, and it was effective again.
Invisible magic lines bound his soul, making it almost impossible for him to take any action.
"This is... When was this damn formation activated?" Aldron said while struggling. However, the formation on the ground was originally used to restrain him, and the targeted effect it could exert on this demigod was much stronger than when it restrained Xiao Chen.
Gregorio said, "Have you forgotten something? This magic circle is designed for you. When our souls are bound together, it has no effect on you, so you can control the skeleton's body to move freely here. But as soon as the two of us separate, it will find you as its prey. Capturing you is its first priority, and it doesn't even need any orders.
Otherwise why would Adriana want to separate you from me?"
