Chapter 505: Chapter 289: Cultivation World 79_2
The Stealer’s core eye glistened with intense pain and... deeper greed! At the base of the severed bone spike, gray fluid wriggled madly in an attempt to regenerate. But it had lost an important attack tentacle.
"You’re too slow." Si Lingle’s voice was emotionless, as if coming from the Nine Netherworld. She finally moved! Her silhouette blurred again, ignoring spatial distances, appearing directly above the Stealer, whose movements were sluggish due to its injuries!
Her right palm was raised high, and within her palm, a miniature "black hole," condensed from the Ending Law, was forming. The light around it, even space fragments, were forcibly twisted, devoured, compressed into that tiny point!
A palm pressed down!
No earth-shaking explosion. That palm pressed onto the wriggling fluid core of the Stealer. The miniature black hole suddenly expanded, instantly fully enveloping the Stealer!
The Law Worms struggled madly, shrieking, with the core’s three eyes emitting dim beams of struggling energy, but faced with the absolute Power of the End from the Ruins Devouring Vortex, it was like fireflies trying to illuminate the Abyss!
Its viscous body twisted violently, compressed, disintegrated, and ultimately, with those three eyes, was completely devoured by the vortex representing Doomsday, decomposed, transformed into pure Ending Law Fragments and faint divine essence necessary to sustain Si Lingle’s Killing Technique!
The entire process took less than three breaths!
The vortex disappeared, Si Lingle slowly landed. Only faintly purified spatial ripples remained, gently fluctuating in the air.
The spatial Divine Power consumed within her was swiftly replenished by the surrounding thin Chaotic Energy, while the Heart Origin Universe Map absorbed the pure ending fragments and faint divine essence, seemingly solidifying the End Star Track slightly, emanating a dark glow.
She felt the new insights gained from this battle: the destructive power of the End Dao Rhyme was beyond imagination, especially against such monsters born from the mutation of laws themselves, it was simply its nemesis.
The Ruins Devouring Vortex not only destroyed but also had the peculiar effect of plundering essence to feed itself, though the means were fierce, under such extreme conditions it was the most effective survival technique.
The remnants of divine blood on the ground dimmed, three divine descendant wills’ shadows slowly dissipating, leaving behind clearer ancient rune outlines, silently bidding farewell.
Si Lingle surveyed the deathly silent Crystal Mountain around. Dealing with one Stealer was merely the beginning.
She could feel, in the distant darkness, more similar or even stronger malice lurking, sensing the movements here. This Forbidden Land was both a place for cultivation and a hunting ground.
She was prey, but she could also become a hunter.
Her gaze returned to the burning Burial Star Corridor star map fragment and Yu Shang’s legacy within her consciousness.
"Burial Star Corridor... Eye of Judgment..." Si Lingle murmured. The Stealer could merely be a native predator, but those "eyes that are everywhere," their threat surely exceeded imagination.
The core eye of the Stealer set off alarms in her heart—was it a mark left by being polluted by the Eye of Judgment?
This place must not be lingered in!
The ending laws of the Ash Ruins Forbidden Land had been initially adapted by her, and the new Tao Domain prototype had been tested in actual combat.
The Jade Token’s sensing had pointed towards an exit (that space fragment), but now with the coordinates provided by Yu Shang, the target was clearer.
She needed to leave this enclosed cage quickly, actively enter the "Land of Disorder" indicated by the star map, to truly embark on the path of seeking the truth.
But how to activate the coordinates? Merely relying on the Jade Token’s aura and her Space Power? The recent resonance between the Jade Token and Yu Shang’s Divine Breath, and the scene of triggering the power of the divine blood remnants, provided her with inspiration.
Si Lingle walked to the center of the platform, sitting cross-legged.
She guided the core divine breath left by Yu Shang within her consciousness out, floating in her palm, emitting pure Starlight Divine Essence waves.
At the same time, she fully operated the Heart Origin Universe Map, injecting the newly realized End Dao Rhyme without reservation into the floating Jade Token!
"Using the legacy of Star as a guide, using the Power of the End as a key..."
"Buzz—!"
The Jade Token vibrated violently! Mysterious space runes emerged from its surface, no longer vague sensing, but clearly resonating with the divine breath in her palm!
The divine breath seemed summoned, transforming into a dazzling Starlight Key, suddenly plunging into the inscription at the center of the Jade Token!
Simultaneously, the star map fragment of the Burial Star Corridor within Si Lingle’s consciousness suddenly shone brightly, projecting into the void before her!
The complex lines of the star map began to frantically combine, extending, ultimately forming a steadily rotating portal of space vortex, seemingly leading to an endless chaotic dimension!
