“Even with high-quality pills and spiritual stones to restore it, external spiritual energy is difficult to integrate with the spiritual energy inside our bodies.”
“It takes a very, very long time to refine it and turn it into spiritual power that one can use.”
At this point, Chief Aoki’s tone became increasingly heavy, and a hint of bitterness flashed in his eyes.
“More importantly, our Eldar warriors suffer a great loss of spiritual energy after every battle.”
“It takes much longer for them to return to peak condition compared to other breeds.”
“Only by returning to this ancient forest and bathing in the power of spiritual veins can our recovery speed be significantly improved.”
“That’s the only way we can quickly return to the battlefield.”
He paused for a moment, then spoke slowly.
“This is also one of the reasons why our Spirit Clan has been confined to this place for thousands of years and has never easily walked out of the Ten Thousand Spirits Ancient Forest.”
“It doesn’t mean we don’t want to go out, it doesn’t mean we are afraid of the Protoss Alliance.”
“The problem is we can’t get out.”
“Once we leave the ancient forest, our combat strength will be greatly reduced, and our recovery will be slow.”
“Once we meet a powerful enemy, we will just be lambs ready to be slaughtered.”
“Not only will it fail to help allies, but it will instead become a burden.”
The surrounding Spirit Clan members looked grim upon hearing this.
Some lowered their heads, their eyes filled with annoyance.
They also yearn to leave the ancient forest and contribute more to protecting their homeland.
However, their innate physical constitution actually became the shackles that bound them.
Jiang Xuelan frowned, a glimmer of worry flashed in her eyes.
He understood the dilemma the Eldar faced.
The Eldar warriors experienced a significant reduction in combat strength and slow recovery after leaving the ancient forest.
Therefore, even if they joined Free Valley, they would find it difficult to play a true role.
They might even suffer heavy losses in the battle against the Protoss alliance.
However, after listening to Chief Qingmu’s words, David showed no worries at all.
Instead, a confident smile slowly appeared on his face.
He gently patted Jiang Xuelan’s hand to calm her down.
Then he looked at Chief Aoki and said firmly, “Chief, I can solve this problem.”
Chief Aoki was shocked, his eyes filled with disbelief.
He suddenly raised his head, looking at David closely, his tone full of urgency and doubt.
“Can you finish this?”
“Brother Daoist David, do you realize that this is our Spirit Race’s inherent dilemma?”
“For thousands of years, we have tried various methods, but none have succeeded in solving it.”
“Do you really have a solution?”
David nodded slowly, his confidence growing stronger.
He slowly raised his right hand, palm facing up, and gently turned it over.
A black light circle emerged from his palm.
A palm-sized black tower slowly shrank and landed in his palm.
This black tower was as black as ink, and its body was ancient and heavy.
The surface was filled with dense ancient runes, which were convoluted and intertwined, as if they contained the mysteries of the universe.
It exuded a desolate, profound, and majestic aura, as if it had experienced countless centuries of deposition.
It arouses admiration in people.
The spire was slightly pointed, with wisps of thin black mist swirling around it, emitting a powerful aura that suppressed everything.
“This is the Demon-Slaying Tower.” David’s voice sounded slowly, containing a hint of majesty.
“This tower is an ancient treasure, and the inside forms a space of its own.”
“The flow of time inside the tower is very different from the flow of time outside. One day outside is equivalent to one hundred days inside the tower.”
“If Eldar warriors need to recuperate after battle, they only need to enter the Demon Suppressing Tower to recuperate.”
“This will give you enough time to refine your spiritual energy and heal your injuries.”
“Even someone who has suffered a serious injury can recover to their peak condition in a short time.”
Chief Aoki’s pupils suddenly narrowed, his eyes filled with shock.
He stared closely at the Demon Suppression Tower in David’s palm, his body trembling slightly.
His lips moved, but he couldn’t say a word for a long time.
After a long time, he finally managed to say a few words through gritted teeth, his voice choked with emotion.
“This Demon Subduing Tower is actually the legendary Demon Subduing Tower!”
David was somewhat surprised by the Qingmu clan head’s enthusiastic reaction.
Initially, he only knew that the Demon Suppressing Tower was an ancient treasure that had the ability to speed up time.
Unexpectedly, Chief Aoki recognized the tower and reacted so strongly.
He slightly raised his eyebrows and asked curiously, “Does clan leader recognize this tower?”
Chief Aoki took a deep breath, trying to calm the shock in his heart.
He slowly stretched out his hand, wanting to touch the Demon Suppressing Tower, but stopped right before he could touch it.
His eyes were filled with awe, as if it was something sacred and must not be violated.
After a long time, he slowly withdrew his hand, his tone containing a hint of hesitation and respect.
