“Respect to Mr. Chen!” A thousand people answered in unison, their voices were resounding and their momentum was extraordinary.
David raised his hand, took the wooden bowl, threw back his head, and drank it all in one gulp. The wine warmed his heart as it passed through his throat, and his eyes were filled with the firm resolve of a united people.
“This second bowl of wine is for Elder Qingxuan! For the Spirit Clan of the Ten Thousand Spirits Ancient Forest, for their deep understanding of the truth, their brave intervention, and their selfless devotion in fighting alongside my Free Valley, together facing the storm to resist tyranny!”
“Respect the Spirit Clan!” The entire audience shouted in unison once again, their hearts in unison.
Elder Qingxuan nodded slightly in understanding, his heart open and honest. He raised his bowl, drinking it all in one gulp, displaying the demeanor of an elder.
“This third bowl of wine is to toast all our brothers and sisters who have escaped death and returned from the ashes! From today on, we will unite, share life and death, never abandon each other, fight together against the gods, and protect our homeland!”
“We will live and die together! We will never abandon each other!” The shout resounded throughout the valley, uniting everyone’s hearts and minds.
After several rounds of drinks and several dishes, the atmosphere at the banquet became increasingly warm and harmonious.
Old Zhao banged on the door and table, shouting loudly, insisting that David tell in detail the entire fierce battle in eliminating the Shadow Soldiers on the third level, which made everyone’s blood boil.
The tall and thin strategist, fanning himself with a gentle smile, circled around Elder Qingxuan, humbly asking about the strange and interesting stories and secrets of cultivation within the Spirit Clan’s ancient forest.
The middle-aged female cultivator gathered several newly rescued female cultivators and sat down to chat casually about daily life in the valley. They smiled at each other, feeling warm and comfortable.
Old Xu sat alone in a corner, calmly observing the lively and harmonious world around him, silently wiping the hot tears from the corners of his eyes, feeling very satisfied.
In a slightly drunken state, Zhao Tieshan held tightly to Lin Yuan’s arm, reminiscing about the difficult years of patience and waiting in the past, and expressed his gratitude for the peaceful times they were enjoying now after achieving the fruits of their labor.
The newly arrived and rescued cultivators from various races gradually let go of all their vigilance and anxiety, completely integrated into the warm and harmonious Free Valley family, and finally showed long-lost peaceful smiles on their faces.
As the night progressed, the lights of Freedom Valley shone brightly, filling the sky with warm light, brighter and more enchanting than previous nights, and more touching and heartwarming.
The lively banquet ended, the night deepened, and everything became quiet.
David left the noisy crowd and went to look for Elder Qingxuan, who was resting alone. With a serious expression, he went straight to the important issue.
“Elder, as I mentioned before, the Spirit Clan cultivators live in the Ten Thousand Spirits Ancient Forest all year round, relying on the abundant natural spiritual energy of the ancient forest to nourish their bodies and regulate their cultivation.”
Now that everyone had left their homeland and ancient forest and was in a valley with thin spiritual energy, their recovery speed had slowed down significantly, their combat strength had difficulty recovering quickly, and their cultivation was much less effective.
Today, I will completely address this hidden danger for everyone.
Hearing that, Elder Qingxuan’s expression immediately turned serious. He frowned slightly and asked solemnly, “Brother Daoist David, this operation has drained the entire team’s blood and energy, significantly reducing their combat strength. If a battle suddenly breaks out, it will definitely drag the entire team down. Do you perhaps already have a powerful solution?”
David nodded silently, without saying anything else. With his hand raised, the ancient and heavy Demon Suppressing Tower slowly appeared in his palm, surrounded by a warm and gentle light. The tower pattern was ancient and weathered, had its own purifying and refreshing power, and its aura was serene and powerful.
“This tower is an ancient treasure, the Demon Suppressing Tower, which I obtained in my youth. It has its own independent cultivation secret room with special spatial laws and time flow that is completely different from the outside world, with a huge difference.”
While a day passed quietly outside, a hundred days passed inside the tower’s secret realm.
The Spirit Clan warriors entered the inner sanctum to recuperate and cultivate in silence. One hundred days of preparation was shortened to one day outside, achieving twice the results with half the effort, quickly recovering their combat strength and replenishing their spiritual energy.
Elder Qingxuan’s pupils suddenly narrowed sharply, his gaze fell on the Demon Suppressing Tower, his eyes filled with incredible shock, and he exclaimed in astonishment.
“Is this the legendary ancient treasure, the Demon Suppressing Tower, which is said to have the law of time?”
I never thought this would actually happen, and you would hold it in your hands. Heaven’s will is on your side! Heaven’s will is truly on your side!
“Here he is.” David nodded slowly, his tone calm and confident.
“Elder, you may immediately summon all the brothers from the Spirit Clan and lead them to the tower to carry out an inspection.”
I have prepared various important resources for cultivation in the tower, including high-grade spiritual vein crystals, natural spiritual spring liquid, foundation-strengthening pills, and soul-nourishing elixirs.
