Transmigrated into a Grandpa, Embracing the Laid-Back Life

Chapter 326: Gathering the Last Flames

The indigo-blue light pillar pierced straight into the night sky, like a wedge nailed between heaven and earth, forcibly propping open this chaotic darkness.

Above the Bing-7 ruins, the originally violently raging spiritual energy flow field, because of the appearance of this light pillar, underwent a strange distortion.

Within three zhang around the light pillar, the air was as viscous as glue, countless tiny electric arcs danced and crackled on the ground.

Several isolated Dark Gold Hunter Insects cautiously approached. Their sensitive antennae had just probed into the light pillar's radiation range before jerking back as if electrocuted, their mouthparts emitting agitated hisses. It wasn't because the light pillar possessed any particularly powerful killing force, but because the extremely chaotic, constantly collapsing and reforming spiritual energy turbulent flow inside the pillar instilled a primal fear in these insects that relied on sensing spiritual energy fluctuations.

Su Ming stood directly beneath the light pillar.

His face was as pale as paper, a sign of weakness after the depletion of his vital essence and blood.

He didn't look at those red eyes lurking and peering from the darkness. Instead, he crouched down, using his finger as a brush, dipped in the blood overflowing from the corner of his mouth, and quickly sketched on the rubble-strewn ground around the light pillar.

His fingertip scraped across the rough ground, skin and flesh torn, yet he remained completely oblivious.

"Micro-Dust Confusing Trail Array".

This was a basic illusion formation, but in Su Ming's hands, those simple lines were given extremely tricky angles. He used the overloaded spiritual pressure radiating from the light pillar itself as an energy source, weaving these lines into a constantly changing maze."Disciple, this light is too bright."

Within the Consciousness Sea, Lin Yu's voice was unusually devoid of its usual teasing, instead carrying a trace of gravity. "We're like holding a torch in a pitch-black forest. What comes might not be rescuers, but more likely hungry wolves."

"That's still better than freezing to death in the darkness."

Su Ming didn't look up, his fingertip drawing the final stroke.

*Hum.*

The ground trembled slightly. A faint layer of gray mist rose around the light pillar, slightly obscuring that piercing indigo-blue glow, making it hazy and elusive.

The moment the formation was completed, from the shadows of the ruins to the east, came the sound of hurried and disorderly footsteps.
