Chapter 5457
Lingxi shook her head: “I’m fine, I just need to rest for a while.”
“But now the Divine Capital City has been occupied by the Soul Devourer. It is too dangerous for us to stay here.”
Ling Yue said worriedly, “Soul Devourer will soon send people to hunt us down.”
Everyone’s expressions grew even more solemn after hearing this. They knew Ling Yue was right. Given Soul Devourer’s personality, he would definitely not let them go.
“I have a suggestion.”
Ling Xi suddenly said, “I can take everyone to the Eighth Heaven. That is the territory of the Divine King Palace. Even if the Soul Devourer is so powerful, he wouldn’t dare to act recklessly there.”
When everyone heard this, a glimmer of hope flashed in their eyes.
The Eighth Heaven is the place that everyone looks out to, and everyone hopes to climb to a higher world.
Moreover, the Eighth Heaven Divine Palace is very powerful. Even if the Soul Devourer has recovered his peak strength, he may not dare to act recklessly there.
“But Fourth Palace Master, your injuries…” Wu Hao said worriedly.
Ling Xi shook her head: “Although my injuries are serious, I can still force open the space channel. However…”
Lingxi paused, a look of embarrassment on her face. “But with my current strength, I can only open a small space channel at best, and I can only transport a few people at a time. It will take a long time to send everyone to the Eighth Heaven.”
After hearing this, the hope on everyone’s faces dimmed again.
There are hundreds of them now, and if they can only teleport a few at a time, it will take many teleportations.
During this period of time, Soul Devourer may have sent people to hunt them down.
“What should I do?”
Zi Yuan said worriedly, “We can’t just stay here and wait for Soul Devourer to kill us, right?”
Everyone was silent, and for a moment, the valley was filled with an atmosphere of despair.
At this moment, Chen Ping suddenly thought of something.
“I have a solution!”
Chen Ping suddenly said.
Everyone looked at Chen Ping, their eyes full of confusion.
Chen Ping smiled slightly and took out a small black tower-shaped magic weapon from his storage ring.
“This is…” Ling Xi looked at the small black tower, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes, “Could this be the legendary Demon Suppression Tower?”
“Yes, this is the Demon Suppression Tower.” Chen Ping said with a smile, “This tower can not only be used to suppress monsters, but also has a special function.”
“What function?” everyone asked curiously.
“The flow of time inside this tower is different from that outside.”
Chen Ping explained, “One day outside is equivalent to a hundred days inside the tower. Everyone can enter the tower to practice, and this way they will recover quickly.”
When everyone heard this, there was a flash of shock in their eyes.
One day outside is equivalent to a hundred days inside the tower. This is simply incredible! If they enter the tower to practice, it will only take a few days to recover from their injuries and even improve their strength.
“This… is this true?” Ling Xi asked in disbelief.
Chen Ping nodded: “Of course it’s true. The flow of time inside this tower is indeed different from that outside.”
“Very good!”
Ling Yue said excitedly, “This way we won’t have to be afraid of Soul Devourer! Once we recover from our injuries, even if Soul Devourer comes, we won’t be afraid of him!”
After hearing this, everyone smiled excitedly. They finally saw hope.
“Everyone, please enter the tower.”
Chen Ping smiled and said, “I will protect you all outside.”
Everyone nodded, and under Lingxi’s leadership, they entered the Demon-Suppressing Tower one by one.
Seeing everyone enter the tower, Chen Ping breathed a sigh of relief.
He knew that what he needed to do now was to protect everyone outside and wait for everyone to recover from their injuries.
Time passed day by day, and in the blink of an eye, three days had passed.
