"What ’if’? There are no ’ifs’!"

Song Biao cut in, "With me, Old Song, taking charge, this sealing will definitely succeed!"

The old man’s face was stern.

Before, he was talking about the odds of success. Now that Li Shangjia and Xing Zhilong had arrived, he immediately changed his tune, radiating confidence.

Gu Zheng glanced at him but didn’t say anything, merely playing along. "That’s right, the sealing will definitely succeed. Lord Li, Xing, we’ll be counting on you."

"Counting on us, my ass!"

Xing Zhilong clapped Gu Zheng on the shoulder and glared. "If you say that kind of crap again, I’ll challenge you to a fight!"

"Alright, alright, my bad." Gu Zheng surrendered.

"There’s indeed no need for pleasantries," Li Shangjia said calmly. "Just tell us what to do, Master Song."

"Excellent!"

Song Biao waved his hand. "First, follow me around the four sides of Lu Shou Pit to find the earth vein nodes."

Immediately, Gu Zheng, Xing Zhilong, Li Shangjia, and Gao Liezhan followed Song Biao and began to run around the perimeter of Lu Shou Pit.

Each time they found a node, Song Biao had one of the four stay behind, holding a Four Seasons Spirit Stone.

The so-called Four Seasons Spirit Stone was a type of Heaven and Earth Wondrous Stone. It could simulate the cycle of the four seasons, driving the Divine Wondrous and the power of the earth to create a seal.

One person was stationed at each node.

Song Biao returned to the center of Lu Shou Pit and busied himself around the passage entrance for a long while.

When he was finished, he sent a message to Gu Zheng.

Gu Zheng rushed over and brought out the entire Earth Spirit Cover, placing it directly over the passage entrance.

Of course, this was only a simple covering.

Song Biao told Gu Zheng to immediately return to his node and wait for him to begin the activation.

The moment the Array activated, the entire Lu Shou Pit began to shake.

Countless bits of sand and gravel trembled and flew into the air.

The high walls surrounding Lu Shou Pit also trembled nonstop, stirred by the power of the earth.

Fortunately, the people on top had received a warning in advance and had all evacuated.

Gu Zheng, Gao Liezhan, Xing Zhilong, and Li Shangjia—the four garrisoning the nodes—sensed the tremor. Their Divine Wondrous flared as they activated their Four Seasons Spirit Stones. Then, following Song Biao’s instructions, they pressed the stones onto the nodes.

BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ!

A humming vibration suddenly echoed in all directions.

Four invisible yet tyrannical forces pushed against the Four Seasons Spirit Stones, trying to dislodge them from the nodes and send them flying into the air.

"Hah—"

"Stay down!"

Gao Liezhan, Xing Zhilong, Li Shangjia, and Gu Zheng roared in unison. They channeled all their Barbaric Force and Divine Wondrous, forcing the Four Seasons Spirit Stones down onto the nodes.

This was a direct confrontation between their individual power and the power of the earth.

Wave after wave of tyrannical force battered Gao Liezhan. After only two breaths, his face was flushed red and his body began to tremble.

Gu Zheng was faring better; he could withstand the pressure.

Xing Zhilong and Li Shangjia were about the same.

With every stage of difference in the Super Body realm, the gap in power was immense.

RUMBLE RUMBLE~

BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ!

The sounds of rumbling and buzzing rang out ceaselessly.

Around Lu Shou Pit, the entire earth was shaking.

Countless fragments of rock, sand, and dust were thrown into the air, dancing wildly.

After the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, Gu Zheng noticed the Four Seasons Spirit Stone was no longer being repelled. It sank completely into the earth vein node and vanished.

In the next instant, a beam of clear light erupted from the node, shooting straight into the clouds.

SWOOSH!

SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH!

From the other three directions, a beam of clear light also shot toward the sky.

The four beams of clear light angled upward and converged in the sky, forming a faintly visible disc.

The center of the disc projected a beam of light downward, which landed precisely on the Earth Spirit Cover over the Lu Shou Pit’s passage entrance and drilled into it.

VMMMM~!

The Earth Spirit Cover hummed, unleashing an invisible power that enveloped the entire passage entrance, causing the void to twist and space to overlap.

Then, both slowly and quickly, it vanished along with the passage!
