And Cecilia gazed at Gu Xing, who was so near, momentarily taken aback.
The last time they met was within the Divine Secret Realm.
Back then, both of them were merely at the Extraordinary Level.
And now...
Gu Xing had already reached the Peak of Commander Tier Nine Realm.
And herself?
Still lingering at Commander Tier Two.
This gap...
Had become so vast!
Not to mention, Gu Xing's actual combat power far exceeded his level, leaving her far behind.
"Hmm? Can't tell me the location of the Beast Taming Holy Pool?"
Seeing Cecilia's delayed response, Gu Xing slightly furrowed his brow.
Logically, since the Empress had already informed Cecilia about the association between the Beast Taming Holy Pool and the Divine Runes, she shouldn't refuse.
"Lord Gu Xing, please follow me!"
Hearing Gu Xing's voice, Cecilia finally came to her senses and hurriedly replied.
Although both of them were of similar age, now...
They were no longer on the same level.
Cecilia dared not call his name directly anymore.
She was well aware of her position!
And what shocked her even more was...
Two Divine Runes were prominently displayed on Gu Xing's forehead!
This meant, he was able to seize the Divine Runes from the heavily surrounded Demon Race!
This...
How did he manage to do it?
Although her mind was filled with countless thoughts, Cecilia dared not delay her actions for a moment.
Soon, she led Gu Xing deep into the church.
The Void Passage leading to the Beast Taming Holy Pool was set with a special restriction by the Empress...
Only the Holy Daughter and the Empress herself could open it.
Even Bishop Aus was completely unaware of this.
For this reason, he was so eager to pressure Cecilia.
Soon.
With Cecilia's skillful manipulation, the Void Passage to the Beast Taming Holy Pool finally opened slowly.
Once the passage appeared, Cecilia immediately led the way respectfully from the front.
This excessive respect surprised Gu Xing a little.
Logically, last time in the Divine Secret Realm he was not exactly friendly to Cecilia, and thought he would face difficulties this time, unexpectedly...
She behaved so compliantly.
But this was good too, saving a lot of trouble.
Passing through the Void Passage, the two quickly reached the Beast Taming Holy Pool.
Gu Xing glanced around and found that the structure here was quite similar to that of the Holy Pool in Longxia Country, but...
The remaining Spiritual Qi concentration was far higher than that in Longxia Country.
Perhaps this was the result of the Holy See's Empress's rigorous management.
"Lord Gu Xing, please feel free to use it."
After saying this, Cecilia respectfully stepped aside, her bowed and submissive posture akin to that of a maid.
Gu Xing was not polite, heading straight to the center of the Holy Pool.
With a thought, the Divine Runes on his forehead emerged.
Randomly, Gu Xing also summoned several of his Guardian Beasts.
Since they were at the Holy Pool, this opportunity couldn't be wasted.
With the flashes of summoning light, several Guardian Beasts appeared one after another.
Absorbing the energy of the Holy Pool was also greatly beneficial to them.
As soon as Liu Li and Vera appeared, they tactfully took places on opposite sides, with a palpable tension between them.
But after a cold snort from the two, they silently began contesting for the energy of the Beast Taming Holy Pool.
Clearly, some rift had developed between them.
Gu Xing felt a bit helpless seeing this, but couldn't think of a good way to mediate.
Next, Sally and Qing Shuang also refused to lag behind, immediately joining the energy scramble.
Seeing the performance of the Guardian Beasts, Gu Xing nodded in satisfaction.
Sally could quickly elevate her level through the Beast Taming Holy Pool.
And Qing Shuang could absorb the pool's energy to prepare for the next advancement.
Both Guardian Beasts were making great efforts!
However...
His gaze shifted to Liu Li and Vera.
The absorption of the Beast Taming Holy Pool's energy by these two was not very significant, yet now...
They were absorbing madly out of spite, trying to outdo each other.
Gu Xing was quite helpless seeing this.
Logically, these two Guardian Beasts had spent the most time together.
It was the least likely for a conflict to break out!
Yet now...
"Alas!"
Just as Gu Xing was troubled over this, a petite figure sneaked over quietly.
Fei Yue slyly approached Gu Xing's ear:
"Master, I have a way to make Sister Liu Li and Sister Vera reconcile~"
"Hmm?"
Gu Xing cast a look of doubt.
"As long as Master takes Sister out alone tomorrow, leaving the space for me and the two sisters, I assure you they'll be back to their old selves when you return!"
Although he thought the suggestion seemed a bit dubious, Gu Xing still nodded in agreement.
After all, he had no better solution at the moment, letting Fei Yue try was harmless.
Besides...
There was nothing inappropriate about the master going out alone with his Guardian Beasts!
Seeing her plan succeed, Fei Yue excitedly flashed a victory sign...
Finally, she created a chance for the master and sisters to be alone!
She joined the energy absorption of the Holy Pool in satisfaction, skipping along.
With Fei Yue entering the scene, six energy whirlpools instantly appeared on the spot.
The largest of them was the Divine Runes.
It almost occupied half of the entire Beast Taming Holy Pool.
Next were Liu Li and Vera, whose current talent absorbed the pool's energy at an equally terrifying speed.
Then came Qing Shuang and Fei Yue, with Sally being the weakest.
And Cecilia, watching Gu Xing's Guardian Beasts and Divine Runes absorb the Holy Pool's energy at such a speed, was also stupefied.
She hadn't expected that besides the Divine Runes absorbing the pool's energy,
Gu Xing's Guardian Beasts absorbed the pool's energy at such a terrifying speed.
In theory, the higher the talent, the greater the energy absorption from the pool.
Those Elf and Angel...
This speed was beyond human!
She felt it was nearing the limit of the Myth Level.
Even the weakest Guardian Beast's absorption speed was approaching Myth Talent!
Looking at this scene, Cecilia couldn't help but swallow.
No wonder Lord Blood Ancestor signed a Blood Covenant with Gu Xing!
Immediately after.
Sally's absorption speed slowed, gradually stopping.
Her talent was only Legend One Star, making her energy absorption from the pool extremely limited.
Now she was completely saturated!
Sally looked at Gu Xing, showing an apologetic gaze.
She really had absorbed to her fullest!
But Gu Xing didn't mind, he just glanced at Sally's attributes.
[Sally]
[Level: Extraordinary Tier One]
[Talent: Legend One Star]
[Race: Time Spirit Race]
[Power: 1]
[Constitution: 1]
[Spirit: 2000]
[Speed: 1]
[Skills: Time Freeze, Time Slowdown]
Seeing Sally's attributes, Gu Xing shook his head somewhat helplessly.
He initially thought that with Sally's level increasing, her other attributes would change.
But unexpectedly...
Even now, with Sally at Extraordinary Level, her other attributes were still only 1.
Yet the speed of her Spiritual Power increase was incredibly terrifying!
Gu Xing estimated that perhaps only when Sally's talent broke through to the Myth Level could this defect be improved.
Subsequently, the other Guardian Beasts also completed their breakthroughs one after another.
Liu Li and Vera's talent was already at the peak of Myth Nine Stars, and there was no change after absorbing this energy.
However, after Qing Shuang and Fei Yue absorbed the power, the aura they emitted grew noticeably stronger.
Gu Xing observed with satisfaction and nodded.
After that, his gaze landed on the Divine Runes.
At this moment, he could feel that the absorption by the Divine Runes was nearing its end.
This also meant that the second Divine Rune was about to be completely awakened.
