"Daoist Ancestor, why have you stopped?"
Gongsun Yu and the others were anxious. They didn't possess Sun Wukong's Void-Breaking Moon Eyes and couldn't see that Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor was also absorbing Divine Soul Essence.
They were only worried that any more delay on this Death Plains would increase the danger.
"The Divine Soul Essence left behind by the fading divine and demonic spirits is beneficial to me. I wish to linger here longer; you all can go on ahead!"
Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor spoke to Gongsun Yu and the others, not concealing his intent, "Wukong and Shen Lang are also absorbing the Divine Soul Essence."
Gongsun Yu and the group exchanged glances. The divine and demonic spirits they feared like a snake or tiger had become a source of Divine Soul Essence in the eyes of Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor and the others!
This is what defines a difference!
But even if Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor explained the reason, they had no ability to absorb the Divine Soul Essence.
