Chapter 1057 unfolds an even more shocking transformation.
"Shuheng, let's set off." Su Xiaoya slowly opened her eyes, her eyes seemed to hold a galaxy, and the wind threads at her fingertips swayed gently, like a lively elf. "The clue to the Earth Spirit lies in that distant western wilderness."
A glint flashed in Yu Shuheng's eyes: "The three primordial spirits have already gathered. If you obtain the Earth primordial spirit, your sea of consciousness will be able to evolve into a real star system. I wonder if we can find Blue Star? When that happens, we can also incorporate Blue Star into your sea of consciousness. Then, it will be like we have the key to go home with us, and we can go home anytime, anywhere."
Go home!
These two words struck the hearts of the four Qingyuan Star "tools" like a heavy hammer, and they all fell silent.
This time, Jinlong also decided to leave the West Sea with them.
With Wuzhiqi and Shenshen present, the Western Sea is without worry.
Of the four, Lao Bai was probably the most anxious.
I've traveled through 100,000 years, and I still don't know if the person most important to me is still around.
Although Su Xiaoya and Yu Shuheng traveled through time only two months apart, they were separated by 100,000 years on Qingyuan Star, indicating that there was a time difference.
However, Lao Bai dared not gamble.
Perhaps it's a case of feeling apprehensive about returning home!
Even if he really went back, he would no longer have a physical body, which would only cause him heartache!
After a long while, Su Xiaoya withdrew her thoughts. Her fingertips moved like butterflies, forming teleportation seals, directly drawing in the power of spacetime and the Void Wind to intertwine and transform into a blue-gold spacetime gate.
Su Xiaoya's understanding of the Great Dao of Time and Space has now reached an extremely high level, and breaking through the void is just a piece of cake for her.
Yu Shuheng then stepped in.
Lao Bai and Jinlong had naturally already returned to Su Xiaoya's sea of consciousness.
The moment Su Xiaoya and Yu Shuheng stepped into it, the surrounding scenery changed rapidly like lightning. The raging waves of the West Sea disappeared in an instant like a phantom. When they reappeared, they were standing on a vast and boundless wasteland, like a sleeping giant beast.
The wasteland was barren, covered with gray-brown pebbles, resembling a desolate desert. The sky was a dark, earthy yellow, as if shrouded in a thick layer of sand and dust, and even the sunlight seemed exceptionally thin, like a candle flickering in the wind.
The air was thick with the earthy smell, mixed with a faint, almost imperceptible odor of decay, as if the earth itself were groaning in pain.
Stepping on the ground, you can feel the rocks under your feet are as hard as iron, yet they also subtly reveal a pulse from the depths of the earth, like the heartbeat of the earth, steady and powerful.
"Such a strong earth element aura." Yu Shuheng frowned and looked around, thinking to himself, "But this aura is mixed with a strange decaying power, like a dark vortex. I'm afraid this place is not peaceful."
Su Xiaoya nodded slightly, her fingertips trembling slightly as if playing a mysterious and melodious tune, pointing towards the depths of the wasteland: "The aura of the primordial spirit of the turbid soil is just ahead, about a hundred miles away. But this decaying power... is like some kind of sinister magic that has eroded the earth's origin, like a malignant tumor, deeply embedded in this land."
She activated the Limitless Profound Ice Power within her sea of consciousness, and a wisp of silver-blue cold air, like a clear spring, gushed forth from her fingertips, or resembled a nimble little snake, dancing lightly in the air.
After merging the Fire Elemental with her sea of consciousness, Su Xiaoya was able to control the Wind Elemental, Water Elemental, and Fire Elemental at will.
With the guidance of "Empty Star," obtaining the Earth Elemental Spirit is practically a certainty.
However, Su Xiaoya did not let her guard down. She knew that anything could change before it was truly accomplished.
After all, the phrase "to fail at the last hurdle" is widely known, so we should be cautious.
When this wisp of cold air touched the putrid smell in the air, it instantly condensed into a thin layer of ice. On the surface of the ice, countless tiny black lines vaguely appeared, wriggling like parasites—traces of sinister magic.
“It’s the work of demonic cultivators.” Su Xiaoya’s eyes darkened, as if she could see through this wasteland and into the evil hidden deep within. “It seems that the remnants of the Bronze Demon Lord have not been completely eradicated. They are actually eyeing the Earth Spirit. How audacious!”
The two quickened their pace, their figures transforming into two streaks of light, like shooting stars streaking across the sky, speeding towards the depths of the wasteland.
With the blessing of the Void Wind, they moved as fast as lightning, and the gravel along the way was swept up by the gale, turning into a cloud of dust.
Midway through their journey, the ground suddenly trembled violently. Countless cracks appeared on the ground, and black mist surged out from them, transforming into countless pitch-black tentacles that coiled towards the two of them.
The tentacles were covered with tiny barbs, emanated a foul, rotten smell, and made a sizzling, corrosive sound when they touched the air.
"Watch out! It's the Corrupted Earth Vine!" Yu Shuheng drew his longsword, and a bright sword light flashed out, instantly severing several tentacles that were coming towards him.
But the severed tentacles fell to the ground and turned into clumps of black slime, which then merged back into the cracks in the ground, quickly growing new tentacles endlessly.
Su Xiaoya conjured a golden flame at her fingertips, which transformed into a wall of fire that blocked the two of them.
The tentacles of the Corrupting Vine touched the wall of fire and instantly emitted a shrill shriek before being burned to ashes. The black slime also evaporated under the high temperature and vanished without a trace.
“This demonic vine feeds on the earth’s essence and is nourished by demonic energy, making it difficult to eradicate with ordinary attacks,” Su Xiaoya said in a deep voice. “We must use the power of ultimate yang to purify the demonic energy and then use the earth’s energy to soothe the earth’s essence.”
As Su Xiaoya spoke, her consciousness sank into her sea of consciousness, and she began to draw upon the power of the Great Sun Golden Flame and the Limitless Profound Ice.
Golden flames intertwined with silver-blue chill, transforming into a two-colored beam of light that shot from her fingertips and pierced straight into the crack in the ground.
The moment the beam of light pierced the earth, a violent roar resounded from the ground. Golden flames spread underground, burning the roots of the demonic vines and the demonic energy; while the silver-blue chill froze the decaying power, preventing it from spreading further.
At the same time, Su Xiaoya could clearly feel that the three primordial spirits in her sea of consciousness resonated with the primordial power deep within the earth, and a heavy aura surged from the ground, echoing the pillar of light.
Under the influence of this aura, the cracks in the ground gradually healed, and the black mist became increasingly faint.
Deprived of the nourishment of demonic energy and the earth's essence, the Corrupted Earth Vines finally stopped producing new tentacles. The remaining tentacles gradually turned to ashes under the dual blows of flames and cold air.
After dealing with the Corrupting Earth Vines, the two continued on their way.
Before long, a huge depression appeared ahead, and in the depression stood a dilapidated altar, which was very similar to the altar seen in the mist of the Western Sea, only larger in scale and surrounded by a more concentrated demonic aura.
On the altar stood dozens of black-robed demonic cultivators, led by a middle-aged man with a sinister face. He wore a black robe embroidered with skull totems, his body surrounded by demonic energy, and he held a black staff in his hand. At the top of the staff was a murky black gemstone, which exuded a chilling aura.
"I never expected that someone could actually get past the Corrupting Earth Vines." The middle-aged man chuckled sinisterly, his voice as grating as a broken gong. "Su Xiaoya, Yu Shuheng, I must thank you both for helping me clear the impurities from the earth's essence, saving me a lot of trouble."
"Who are you? Why do you desecrate the origin of the earth here?" Yu Shuheng gripped his longsword tightly, his spiritual power circulating around him. The clear light on the sword echoed the three-colored spiritual light around Su Xiaoya, forming a solid defense.
"I am the Envoy of the Corrupted Earth, under the command of the Demon Lord." The middle-aged man raised his hand and waved it, causing the black gem at the tip of his staff to shine brightly. "The very essence of the land of Qingyuan Star was originally the nourishment for the Demon Lord's revival, and the primordial spirit of the turbid soil is an excellent supplement to help me break through my realm. Today, the two of you will both become part of the earth!"
Before he finished speaking, the middle-aged man pointed his staff, and the ground around the altar suddenly cracked open. Countless tentacles of the Corrupting Earth Vines surged out from the ground and rushed towards the two of them like a tide.
At the same time, dozens of black-robed demonic cultivators attacked simultaneously, their black demonic energy transforming into demonic blades and arrows, which, together with the demonic vines, formed an impenetrable attack net, completely surrounding the two.
Du Su Xiaoya and Yu Shuheng were speechless. Just how many extraterrestrial forces were ambushed when Qingyuan Star fled from the heavens?
"Well done!" Yu Shuheng snorted coldly, drew his longsword, and the pure Yang sword spiritual power and Su Xiaoya's Great Sun Golden Flame complemented each other, causing the sword light to surge like a blazing sun, instantly shattering the oncoming demonic blades and demonic vines.
Su Xiaoya then summoned the Void Wind, and the azure gale transformed into countless wind blades, slicing down all the surrounding demonic arrows.
At the same time, she condensed the power of spacetime at her fingertips, and spacetime rifts exploded among the demonic cultivators, scattering their formation into pieces.
"With such meager abilities, you dare to call yourself an envoy?" Su Xiaoya's eyes were icy cold. The three primordial spirits in her sea of consciousness trembled simultaneously. Golden flames, silver-blue ice, and cyan gale intertwined to form a three-colored torrent that swept towards the envoy of the corrupt land.
The envoy of the corrupt lands' expression changed; he hadn't expected the two to be so powerful.
He dared not be negligent in the slightest, plunging his staff into the ground and chanting incantations. The demonic energy above the altar surged instantly, transforming into a gigantic demonic hand that reached out to grab the three-colored torrent.
"Boom!"
The three-colored torrents collided violently with the demonic hand. Golden flames burned away the demonic energy, silver-blue ice froze the demonic hand's movements, and cyan gales tore apart the demonic hand's body.
Under the combined attack of the three elemental spirits, the demonic hand gradually shattered, turning into a sky full of black demonic energy that dissipated without a trace.
The Corruption Messenger coughed up a mouthful of black blood, his face growing increasingly pale. A flicker of fear flashed in his eyes, yet he still gritted his teeth and said, "Do you think you can win like this? I have already infused the earth's very essence with demonic energy. Once I detonate this demonic energy, the entire wasteland will turn into a dead zone, and none of you will leave alive!"
As he spoke, he was about to activate his staff to detonate the demonic energy in the earth.
Su Xiaoya's eyes were like knives, instantly drawing upon the power within her sea of consciousness.
She clearly sensed that although the demonic energy in the earth's origin was as stubborn as a rock, under the resonance of the three primordial spirits, the earth's own will, like a sleeping dragon, was gradually awakening.
She formed a mark at her fingertips, woven from the power of the three elemental spirits and the power of space, like a twinkling star in the night sky, and gently touched the ground.
The moment the mark was placed in the soil, the ground seemed to come alive, radiating a soft, earthy yellow light.
This ray of light contained the essence of the primordial earth, much like a mother's warm embrace, soothing the restless origin of the earth.
At the same time, the supreme yang power of the Great Sun Golden Flame spread along the light like a burning flame, purifying the remaining demonic energy;
The extreme cold power of the Boundless Profound Ice, like icy frost, froze the spread of demonic energy.
The Void Wind, like a graceful dancer, evenly distributes the purified power of the earth's origin, repairing the damaged land.
Upon seeing this, the messenger of the corrupted earth stared wide-eyed, as if his eyeballs were about to pop out: "No! Impossible! How could you possibly arouse the aura of the primordial spirit of the turbid soil?"
"Because the will of the earth is as unbreakable as steel, and never yields to darkness." Su Xiaoya's voice was as cold as frost, and she exerted force with her fingertips again, the light of the mark as intense as the sun.
The Corruptor felt his connection to the demonic energy of the earth being severed mercilessly, like a fragile thread. The fear in his heart surged like a tidal wave, becoming uncontrollable.
He turned to run away, but Yu Shuheng blocked his way like a mountain.
"Want to leave? Leave your life behind!" Yu Shuheng swung his longsword, the sword light like a rainbow piercing the sun, carrying endless killing intent, and stabbed straight at the envoy of the corrupt land between the eyebrows.
The envoy of the corrupted lands hastily raised his staff to defend himself. With a crisp clang, the staff shattered like broken porcelain, splitting in two by the sword light. The black gem also shattered like a broken mirror. His mind was struck as if by a heavy blow; he spat out a mouthful of black blood and staggered like a candle in the wind.
Seizing the opportunity, Su Xiaoya activated the power of spacetime and appeared behind the Corruption Messenger like a ghost. The spacetime blade at her fingertips, like the scythe of death, pierced his heart.
The Corruptor let out a shrill scream, its body deflated like a punctured balloon, gradually turning into a cloud of black demonic energy and dissipating into nothingness.
The remaining black-robed demonic cultivators were terrified upon seeing this. They turned and fled like startled rabbits, only to be slain one by one by Yu Shuheng's sword light, which swept away fallen leaves like autumn wind. None of them survived.
After eliminating all the demonic cultivators, the two walked to the center of the altar.
Su Xiaoya gently lifted her jade-like finger, and the three-colored mark condensed at her fingertip like a lively elf, before she gently pressed it onto the altar.
Under the light of the mark, the altar seemed to be enchanted, gradually turning into specks of ash. Below, a crystal-clear, earthy-yellow crystalline structure, like a sleeping beauty, slowly revealed itself to everyone.
Within the crystal, a dense, earthy-yellow spiritual light floated, which was none other than the primordial spirit of the earth, the turbid soil.
It exudes a profound yet gentle aura, much like the broad embrace of Mother Earth, containing the primordial power to bear all things and nurture life, like a clear spring flowing across this wasteland.
"Finally found it." Su Xiaoya was overjoyed, as if she had found light in the darkness. Her fingertips gently touched the crystal, as if she were touching a rare treasure.
The crystal shattered instantly, and the turbid primordial soil, like a dazzling meteor, streaked across the sky and rushed towards her brow, merging into her sea of consciousness.
The moment the primordial spirit of the turbid soil entered the sea of consciousness, the entire wasteland suddenly burst forth with dazzling light, as brilliant and dazzling as fireworks. The pulse of the earth became clearer and clearer, as if it were dancing a joyful melody. The dark sky gradually became brighter, and on the distant wasteland, tiny green shoots began to sprout, like messengers of spring, bringing the hope of life.
Meanwhile, within Su Xiaoya's sea of consciousness, an even more awe-inspiring transformation was unfolding—the four primordial spirits gathered together, and the starry sea, like a ignited firework, was dazzling and spectacular, about to evolve into a true cosmic galaxy. What a magnificent and breathtaking scene it was!
