After awakening, the female supporting character in the abused novel only wants to ascend to immorta

Chapter 514 Forbidden Zone Expansion
Feeling the vast spiritual energy within his body, Lin Zhao's face no longer showed the previous fear when he looked at the enormous creature, but his tightly furrowed brows remained.

Because of her current injuries, she can't withstand so much spiritual energy for long.

Clearly, You Shen, who was transmitting spiritual energy to her, also noticed the problem and asked directly, "How long can you last?"

Lin Zhao estimated: "About 15 minutes."

This time was clearly beyond You Shen's expectations. He originally thought that Lin Zhao could only hold on for a few dozen breaths at most. He transferred spiritual energy to Lin Zhao in the hope that both of them could escape unscathed.

However, it seems that the bestowal of these spiritual energies has given Lin Zhao some other ideas.

She brushed aside You Shen's hand on her shoulder and said, "I'd appreciate it if Your Highness would step back and cover for me. I'll try to see if I can take down this big guy directly."

You Shen glanced at Lin Zhao with surprise, and after a brief moment of thought, nodded and transformed back into his original form to leave.

Lin Zhao sheathed the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword, summoned the Holy Dragon Emperor's Spear, and charged towards the colossal figure beneath his feet.

Taotie never expected that after just a few breaths of contact with another ant, the aura emanating from this little ant would become so terrifying that it couldn't understand it.

He roared and raised his claws to pounce on Lin Zhao again.

Seeing this, Lin Zhao curled his lips and swept the Holy Dragon Emperor Technique Spear down, actually smashing the Holy Dragon Emperor Technique Spear down directly. He then ignored the movement of the Holy Dragon Emperor Technique Spear and moved to the back of Taotie.

Just as the gluttonous beast was struggling against the force of the Holy Dragon Emperor's spear swooping down, it felt a sharp pain in its tail that went straight to the top of its head.

"Roar!" When he turned around, his beautiful, huge tail had already fallen into the little ant's hand!

This little ant is so audacious!
With a single slap, the Holy Dragon Emperor's Spear was slammed to the ground. The Taotie roared and leaped up, about to swallow Lin Zhao whole.

Lin Zhao raised one hand, and the Holy Dragon Emperor's Spear flew back into her hand. She retrieved the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword that she had used to cut off the Taotie's tail, and gripped the Holy Dragon Emperor's Spear, temporarily blocking the Taotie's attacking figure.

Her size was so large compared to the other gluttons that it was like a mouse challenging a lion.

It was under such a disparity that, in her head-on clash with the Taotie, Lin Zhao was directly swatted away by a single claw from the Taotie.

She could sense that if it weren't for the spiritual energy that You Shen had transmitted to her, the Taotie could have killed her with a single claw.

Pressing his chest, Lin Zhao took a deep breath, and using the force of being swatted away by the Taotie, he spread his phoenix wings, turned around, and fled towards the horizon.

At this moment, Taotie realized that he had been tricked and quickly chased after Lin Zhao.

Lin Zhao led You Shen, who was waiting there, extinguished the Golden Crow Divine Fire on his body, and put the lantern in You Shen's hand into his Qiankun bag. He then carried You Shen and fled along the route he remembered.

Only when he could no longer squeeze out any spiritual energy from his body did Lin Zhao land on the ground with You Shen, and take out the dragon lamp: "We are still about half a day's journey away from leaving the forbidden area. I can't keep going any further. Please help me."

After saying that, Lin Zhao took out a tail that was three times his own size from his spatial ring and handed it to You Shen: "Also, this is for you. I have fulfilled my mission."

After You Shen put the Taotie's tail into his ring, he used the lantern's light to tap on the Tian Tong Mirror. About an hour later, the huge black jade Qilin appeared in their field of vision.

"Let's go back on Little Black. Your physical condition isn't suitable for me to ride you back with my mount." Lin Zhao nodded weakly and followed You Shen onto the back of the Jade Kirin. As the Jade Kirin sped towards the outer edge of the forbidden area, Lin Zhao felt an overwhelming fatigue that had been suppressed within her, making her feel drowsy.
Lin Zhao didn't know when he left the forbidden area. Only after the oppressive feeling of being surrounded by that gray aura had completely disappeared did he slowly close his eyes.

……

This was probably the best sleep Lin Zhao had had in years. She was drowsy and had no strong desire to wake up, letting her soul drift off to sleep in a soft, comfortable state.

Lin Zhao slowly opened her eyes only after her mind and body had fully recovered.

She sat up, looked around, and guessed that she was probably in a guest room at Yun Shen Lou.

She sat up, feeling a soreness throughout her body. The pain wasn't intense, but it felt like a dull knife slowly cutting into her flesh, gradually eroding Lin Zhao's hard-won mental state.

"My injuries have worsened." After checking his condition, Lin Zhao was not surprised by the result.

She had only managed to exchange blows with the Taotie by relying entirely on the spiritual energy provided by You Shen. However, in essence, even though the Taotie's injuries were similar to Lin Zhao's, Lin Zhao was still completely dominated by the Taotie.

Of course, this doesn't mean Lin Zhao is truly without means to deal with this ferocious beast. She has plenty of spiritual techniques and formations at her disposal. However, her target is the Taotie's tail, which inevitably involves close combat. Simply using spiritual techniques to attack the Taotie's skin and cut off its tail...

Lin Zhao believes that she does not yet have that ability.

"Ancient Dragon Soul Liquid..." Lin Zhao murmured what he wanted. Before he could get up to find someone, the door to the guest room opened.

You Shen, dressed in a purple robe, walked in: "You've been unconscious for three days and three nights."

Lin Zhao rubbed his temples: "No wonder you slept so comfortably, has the polar night passed?"

You Shen shook his head. "No, and things have gotten even worse."

He didn't directly say what the worse situation was, but instead took out two soul jade bottles from his sleeve: "This is ancient dragon soul liquid. Take it and leave the soul world immediately to heal your injuries."

The heaviness in his tone and his previous words made Lin Zhao wonder: "What happened in the Divine Soul World?"

You Shen said, "This is not something that a Nascent Soul cultivator can worry about. The Upper Realm is also questioning the Seven Star Palace."

Lin Zhao opened a bottle of Ancient Dragon Soul Liquid. After the fragrance of the Ancient Dragon Soul Liquid stabilized the pain in her soul, she was able to slowly sort out the current situation: "For the Upper Realm to question the Seven Star Palace, is it because something serious has happened to the evil thoughts from another world in the forbidden area?"

Even if You Shen hadn't said anything, Lin Zhao could have guessed it.

She forcibly imprisoned so many otherworldly evil energy bodies with the power of the Star Lord of Tian Shu, and then absorbed these energy bodies with the power of the Ancestral Dragon and the Ancestral Phoenix. This was equivalent to causing the otherworldly evil to lose a large chunk of flesh and blood in the forbidden area. How could the otherworldly evil just let things go so easily?

You Shen nodded. "Yes, but this has nothing to do with you. The evil thoughts from the other world in the forbidden area were already restless before, and now they are just fully manifesting their restlessness. The forbidden area has expanded outwards."

The expansion of the forbidden area means that the area where cultivators can operate in the spiritual world will shrink further, and the resources of cultivators in the cultivation world will be further plundered by evil thoughts from other worlds.

This news was undeniably heavy, and Lin Zhao also found it troublesome. He frowned and asked, "Isn't there a way to counter it?"
