Chapter - 2908

All Gray Rat needed was one more minute. Just one more minute and it could recover from its paralysis. By then, it could regain its ability to self destruct its spirit pill.

With that ability, it wouldn't have to worry about those primordial beasts harming it.

If they dared to lay a finger on it, Gray Rat would self-destruct its spirit pill to perish alongside them.

However, Tiger King and the others weren't fools either, so how would they fall for Gray Rat's scheme?

Instead, they put more effort into absorbing Gray Rat's spirit pill.

Theos and Erebus didn't remain idle, too, as they joined in the act.

A spirit pill crafted from spiritual spring was indeed potent.

Not only did it quench their thirst and moisten their throats, but it also significantly augmented their capabilities.

Zeke, Quinlan, and Squirrel watched enviously.

Zeke thought, D*mn it. I can't let Tiger King and the others waste such a superb spiritual spring. Once they consume sufficient spiritual spring water and restore their strength to its peak, it'll be disastrous for us. We need to make a move now.

With that in mind, Zeke uttered, "Quinlan, let's do it."

Quinlan uttered worriedly, "Master, I think we should forget about it."

"Why?" Zeke asked curiously.

"There are five primordial beasts there, not to mention Theos and Elder Erebus are also capable warriors. We're no match for them. If we reveal ourselves now, we'll surely die."

Zeke glanced at the unconscious Lacey in his arms and shook his head. "No. We don't have much time left. Don't worry. Even if we are not their match, don't forget about my relationship with that man in the water. He won't stand by and do nothing."

"Are you sure? Can you tell me what your relationship with that man is? That way, I can have a rough idea of what we're dealing with."

Instead of answering the question, Zeke released his energy, which materialized into Dragon King Sword.

He mustered all his strength and swung the sword at Gray Rat.

Dragon King Sword, an Earth Level divine weapon, had no physical form. Its size depended on the amount of energy Zeke channeled into it.

At that moment, Zeke had poured almost all his energy into Dragon King Sword.

Dragon King Sword extended several hundred meters long and emitted an impressive aura.

It smashed toward the enemy with an immense force that could tear even the sky apart.

Tiger King, Theos, and the others were frightened at the sight of Dragon King Sword's abrupt appearance. Their hearts clenched in dread, but they didn't step aside.

After all, they were absorbing Gray Rat's spirit pill and were reluctant to give that up.

If they did, Gray Rat might self destruct its spirit pill. By then, none of them could help themselves to the goodness of Gray Rat's spirit pill.

As the group continued to consume the spirit pill, they split some of their attention to resist the incoming attack.

However, all of them underestimated Dragon King Sword's power.

Zeke could cut open a spatial passage if he unleashed Dragon King Sword at full force, and that wasn't a move the party could resist while being distracted.

Tiger King and the others felt a little disappointed. Do we have to give up the spirit pill and concentrate on fighting the enemy? This enemy is indeed quite formidable.

However, what happened next was beyond their expectations.

Dragon King Sword wasn't targeting them. Instead, it was aiming at Gray Rat's spirit pill.

Dragon King Sword stopped attacking once it struck the spirit pill. Instead, it greedily consumed the spirit pill.

Tiger King and the others looked at each other, communicating telepathically.

"What should we do? Should we continue to expel Dragon King Sword?"

"Dragon King Sword is too powerful. We can't expel it with divided attention. Even if we do accomplish that, it'll cost us a lot of energy and delay the process of absorbing the spirit pill."

"On the other hand, if we focus on dealing with the Dragon King Sword, we won't be able to absorb this spirit pill."

"Forget it. Let's ignore Dragon King Sword since its target is the spirit pill, not us, so we're not in any immediate danger."

"You have a point. Besides, how much can it absorb anyway? We'll let Dragon King Sword absorb as much as it wants. At most, we'll properly deal with it after we're done consuming this spirit pill."
