Before the dark-faced burly man could react, a terrifying, suffocating force suddenly pulsed down from the sky...
He looked up in horror.
An ominously dark ring, dozens of yards across, had appeared above his head...
The terrifying dark ring radiated restraining spell power that made his scalp prickle with danger and left him struggling to breathe...
Not good!
The dark-faced man felt that terrifying, suffocating force pressing down on him. This treasure was no ordinary Spirit Artifact!
He slapped his Storage Bag, and a blood-red bead flew out. Forming hand seals and chanting, he spat a mouthful of essence blood into the bead!
The bead transformed into a cloud of Bloodlight Runes that enveloped the dark-faced man.
Boom!
Blood-red light erupted around the dark-faced man, and he vanished from the spot in an instant.
The next moment!
Whoosh! The dark-faced man appeared dozens of yards away, turning into a streak of blood-red light as he prepared to flee...
But at that very same moment!
Whoosh! As the dark-faced man appeared over there, the dark ring quivered with black light and appeared above his head as well...
The ring instantly sent a wave of eerie black-and-white runes pressing down, enveloping the dark-faced man...
Bzzzt!! The dark-faced man suddenly shuddered. Shrouded in those eerie black-and-white runes, he could no longer activate his Bloodlight Runes, and the strange blood-red bead was instantly immobilized...
"Not good!" Sensing terrifying, suffocating killing intent rushing toward him, the dark-faced man cried out in horror. He forced his spell power into motion and spat a streak of blood-red light at the black-and-white runes...
With a muffled bang!, the black-and-white runes forcibly repelled that streak of blood-red light.
Pfft! As though struck by a heavy hammer, the dark-faced man was knocked back seven or eight yards...
In that instant.
