I Am Also An Extraordinary Creature-Chapter 1656 - 1168: Everyone Ascends to Immortality?
Guan Ziyou fell silent, then he said, "Then study me. If the research cannot break through, then I will undergo another spiritual ordering action."
"...Mr. Ziyou is so selfless!" The squad leader immediately contacted headquarters, not because he didn’t want to persuade him, but because they really had no time left.
According to current observations, the Spirit of All Things has already begun to enter the Feathering Stage. At most, in a month’s time, the influence of the Spirit of All Things will envelop the entire planet.
By that time, the spiritual essence of the planet will completely become chaos, and no creature will be able to survive in such an environment.
Escape? That’s impossible. In the early stages of the Spirit of All Things’ birth, the spiritual fluctuations belonging to it already swept across the entire planet.
They are now in a ’symbiotic’ state with the Spirit of All Things. This symbiosis does not yet make everyone despair, but it is like putting a collar on all of them.
While they are active on this planet, it’s fine, but once they leave the planet, the collar will tighten because of the length of the tether, resulting in the escaping humans dying of ’asphyxiation.’
So from the start, they lost the chance to escape.
The Spirit of All Things dies, they die, everything will be devoured by the Spirit of All Things.
Therefore, in this urgent situation, there is no room for much hesitation or doubt.
The best course of action is to attempt to research the peculiarities of Guan Ziyou’s body, create a bunch of non-spiritual entities to execute the plan of spiritual ordering.
This research is destined not to take long. They have to race against time. If the plan cannot proceed, then let Guan Ziyou try it alone.
As for the Proxy Agents who are coming, they have never had any contact with them. Even if they are a source of hope, they cannot place all their hope on them at this time.
On the way back, a thunderous noise erupted, and Guan Ziyou along with the others in the team turned back in astonishment to see the changes occurring in the realm dominated by the Spirit of All Things.
The sky over there was gloomy, gray dark tides surged, forming a massive vortex, and under the influence of this vortex, the faces of the team members turned grim.
Even though Guan Ziyou didn’t feel any particular sensation, he could sense what the team encountered, and he immediately deployed a spiritual barrier.
Although he no longer had spiritual power, his original strength could still be used.
With the spiritual essence being disordered, using the related strength in this way would be counteracted by the disordered spiritual essence. But, due to having no spiritual power himself, using it was like being a ghost.
When hit by the backlash of disordered spiritual essence, it can’t find a target, and under a stable protective influence, the other team members’ complexions improved significantly.
Even so, they still cautiously restrained their own spiritual essence.
The spiritual barrier that once provided peace of mind and was widely used, now is akin to a death warrant; whoever uses it dies. Guan Ziyou ignored the corresponding cost.
With this layer of protection, they temporarily avoided the harvest of the Spirit of All Things. Even so, they still saw numerous light spots converging into the gray dark tide vortex from afar.
Someone in the team couldn’t hold back tears; one of the directions where the light spots concentrated was their base!
"Why is the Spirit of All Things doing this??" Guan Ziyou was equally astonished. At this stage, the Spirit of All Things only needed to wait for its metamorphosis, right?
This kind of harvesting now is akin to actively consuming strength to accelerate the process. Even if the harvest is completed and the metamorphosis succeeds, it would seem incomplete, possibly leaving many slip through the cracks.
He thought of those Proxy Agents. Was it the Proxy Agents that pressured the Spirit of All Things, causing it to start the harvest early?
"Hurry, I can freely use spiritual power now, let’s speed up back, it’s still in time!" Realizing this, Guan Ziyou shouted immediately. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶
Driven by the power of the spirit, the team’s speed increased sharply, returning to the base that was already on the brink of collapse.
The harvest of the Spirit of All Things came so unexpectedly that after the first wave of impact, some people had their souls directly extracted.
Subsequently, the quick-reacting Spirit Attuners desperately constructed defenses as fast as they could.
The price was that they who deployed spiritual barriers were hit by the backlash from disordered spiritual essence, with the barrier failing shortly after, taking the Spirit Attuners with it.
Thereafter, other Spirit Attuners would step up. Not all Spirit Attuners could single-handedly sustain a barrier covering the base, requiring many to join forces in relay.
Fortunately, with leaps in spiritual technology over the years, the profession of Spirit Attuner became extremely popular, with exceptionally clear employment prospects. The lack of personnel lasted several decades.
In such times, too many Spirit Attuners seemed relatively expendable.
When individual quality is insufficient, quantity comes to the fore. Even so, the entire base was permeated with despair.
Yet, some Spirit Attuners were still willing to make a final struggle, even if just to allow their family a few more seconds of life, enabling them smooth farewells in their final moments.
Until a grand barrier unfolded, stabilizing the base’s condition, some Spirit Attuners, who already felt themselves losing control, widened their eyes and slumped onto the ground.
They injected Anti-Spiritual Medicine into their bodies after surviving a close call.
Before the appearance of the Spirit of All Things, this medication was a special supply used in prisons solely for Spirit Attuner inmates. Excessive injection would even cause severe muscle spasms.
Yet now, it had become an essential life-saving drug.
Half a minute later, the Spirit Attuners who survived looked like they’d seen a ghost. None among them could usually last half a minute.
Usually, mutations would start within tens of seconds, yet Guan Ziyou, who unfolded a spiritual barrier, seemed unfazed.
Wait, wasn’t he dead over two months ago? Someone recognized Guan Ziyou’s identity, finding it even more incredible.
Afterwards, an even more astounding occurrence happened: the gray dark tide vortex harvesting souls was cleaved apart by a black slash!
After a brief silence, no one focused on Guan Ziyou anymore.
His resurrection intrigued people, to be sure, but resurrection didn’t mean he couldn’t die again.
Unless they could solve the problem of the Spirit of All Things, they were all doomed.
What had happened over at the Spirit of All Things, what kind of person launched such a formidable attack, cleaving through its harvesting vortex in one blow?
Could they be saved?
