Chapter 504: Chapter 289: Cultivation World 79
The malice flashed like a stone thrown into a dead pool, causing ripples before quickly returning to silence.
But it had clearly imprinted a vivid coordinate full of decay and greed on Si Lingle’s perception map—deep within the shadows where about three Crystal Peaks intersect ahead to the right.
No hesitation, no probing words. In this place of judgment and exile, any sound is superfluous; power is the only language.
The traces of Divine Blood beneath Si Lingle’s feet suddenly shone brightly!
The ancient, forcibly erased symbol on the ground became several times clearer in an instant, as if flowing with invisible blood.
Three faint golden phantoms rose skyward from the head of the remains, not physical entities, but the indelible will of the extinct race! They carried ancient sorrow and anger, converging into three streams of invisible Power of Laws, instantly augmenting Si Lingle!
This was the final indomitable will of Xingchen Yu Shang’s tribe, awakening momentarily due to the Legacy Jade Plate and Yu Shang Divine Breath Fragments carried by Si Lingle, empowering her against the observer!
The terminal gray flames around Si Lingle were instantly tinged with a layer of austere gold.
She did not charge toward the coordinate in her perception—that would be too direct, easy to fall into a trap. Her figure flickered, seemingly merging into the space solidified by Ending Law, and vanished on the spot!
This was not high-speed movement, but Void Phase Shift based on a deeper understanding of Space Law derived from the Void Divine Core in this place!
Her body transformed into invisible spatial ripples, avoiding direct locks from perceptions. The next moment, she was silently present on the side-rear, above a twisted Crystal Peak’s shadow, the source of malice.
Space beneath her feet was like docile thin ice, supporting her form without causing the slightest ripple.
Her gaze lowered.
In a recessed pit of Crystal Stone below, there crouched a bizarre entity.
It was not a flesh and blood life form; more like an aberration product of some Law.
The main body was a mass of writhing, semi-solid dark gray fluid, like decaying asphalt, constantly dissolving and reconstituting nearby small crystal fragments.
At the core of this fluid, three slowly rotating, murky eye-like gemstones were embedded; they were the source of greedy malice! Several bone spines formed from Ending Law Fragment, like spider legs, supporting its viscous body.
"Hmph... Stealer." Si Lingle instantly understood its essence. This was a Law Worm birthed by the corruption and mutation of Ending Law itself over endless years in the ruins, perhaps mixed with residues of malice scattered from Divine Descendants!
It lived by devouring the remaining weak divinity and Law Fragments here, instinctively coveting every presence with energy and "life force."
The Jade Token, Yu Shang Divine Breath, especially the terminal Dao Rhyme aura Si Lingle had just adapted to, were undeniably exquisite delicacies!
The three eye cores of the Stealer suddenly locked onto Si Lingle atop the Crystal Peak! Its viscous body jolted from the pit at speed leaving a dim shadow, several Law bone spines tearing through the solidified air, thrusting directly at Si Lingle!
"Sizzle—buzz!"
Space was forcibly pierced by the bone spines, producing a teeth-gritting friction and annihilation sound! Si Lingle was already prepared, her fingertip tracing out a profound trajectory.
A barrier as thin as a cicada wing, yet containing the essence of ending, solidification, and Returning Ruins, instantly unfolded before her. Not a hard block, but when struck by the bone spines, the barrier exhibited peculiar folding, extending, and annihilation effects!
The destructive energy within the frontal ends of the spines seemed swallowed by the sea, rapidly digested, assimilated by the barrier, transformed into sustaining power for the barrier itself.
Simultaneously, the extended space of the barrier slowed down the speed of the spines infinitely, as if plunged into a abyss of mud!
"Roar—" The Stealer emitted an inhuman, crystalline friction-like shriek, instinctively trying to withdraw the bone spines. But how could Si Lingle let it escape?
Sparks flashed in her silver eyes! In the Heart Origin Universe Map, the star representing the new Dao Rhyme of ending erupted with profound gray light!
Si Lingle’s two fingers sliced like a blade, a silver-gray spatial blade, concentrated to the extreme and as thin as a hair, suddenly flashed! It followed the bone spines "frozen" by the spatial barrier, slicing through instantaneously at speed beyond thought!
Crack, crack, crack!
Not the sound of physical breaking, but the sound of pure laws and spatial structures being forcibly severed and annihilated! The spines penetrating the barrier, from their roots, crumbled into flying ash inch by inch!
