Chapter 55 A Miracle Descends! Spatial Evolution, The Hunt Begins!
We have been in the "Black Widow" jungle for more than twelve hours.
The environment here is even worse than Su Wanqing had anticipated.
The humid, hot air was so thick it seemed to solidify, clinging tightly to everyone's skin, and every breath was accompanied by a burning sensation.
The tree canopy overhead blocked out the sun, shattering it into fragments, leaving only a few sickly spots of light falling on the thick layer of decaying leaves.
The air was filled with a sweet, rotten smell mixed with a fishy stench—the smell of miasma fermenting with the remains of countless poisonous insects.
The assault team members were the elite of the elite, but in this godforsaken place, their physical strength and will were being worn down inch by inch.
The effects of "Qingxin Dan" are weakening.
As the miasma grew thicker, the illusory whispers that had seeped into his mind became clearer, and the rate at which the pills were being consumed far exceeded expectations.
Su Wanqing walked at the front, extending her spiritual power to guard everything within a radius of fifty meters.
Any venomous snakes or ferocious beasts that try to approach will be locked onto by her in advance, and then Zhang Tie will kill them with a single blow.
Whenever a warrior showed signs of mental confusion, she would immediately transfer a wisp of spiritual energy to forcibly stabilize his mind.
This consumption is enormous.
Sweat seeped from her forehead and slid down her cheeks, her face turning a pale, bloodless white.
The replenishment of the spiritual spring water in the space can no longer keep up with the consumption.
"Team Leader Su, take a rest." Professor Li Weiguo followed behind her, his voice full of worry. "You look terrible."
“We can’t stop.” Su Wanqing shook her head, her gaze fixed on the pass shrouded in thick fog ahead. “We must get through there before dark; that’s the area where the Heart-Eating Vine is most active.”
Before the words were finished, a short scream came from the end of the line.
Su Wanqing's expression changed drastically, and she instantly scanned the area with her spiritual power!
A young soldier was clutching his own neck with both hands, his eyes rolled back, and a terrifying "hoarse" sound was coming from his throat. His face was filled with extreme terror.
“He saw his dead mother waving at him!” Wang Ying’s voice tightened after the examination.
Illusion attack!
The mental pollution here is so strong that it can directly tear apart the defense of the Mind-Clearing Pill!
Su Wanqing strode forward, her golden needles piercing several acupoints on the soldier.
It's no use!
The warrior's struggle paused for only a moment. An extremely cold spiritual force took hold in his mind, frantically tearing at the spiritual energy that Su Wanqing had probed into him.
Su Wanqing increased her spiritual power output to barely dispel the chilling aura.
The soldier collapsed to the ground, saved.
Su Wanqing's body suddenly swayed, and her vision went black.
The spiritual energy is about to be exhausted.
Her own mental sea was also churning with monstrous waves, and countless cries and shrill laughter exploded in her ears.
This can't go on any longer.
"Rest where you are!" Su Wanqing's voice was filled with barely suppressed weakness. "Everyone, stand back to back in a circle, and no sleeping!"
She walked to the center of the group and ordered Zhang Tie, "I need five minutes. No matter what happens, don't let anyone get close to me."
"Yes!" Zhang Tie's tall figure stood in front of her, unmoving.
Su Wanqing sat down cross-legged, her mind sinking into the space.
She must recover immediately.
However, when her consciousness entered the space, the scene before her caused her heart to stop.
The space is "sick".
The sky was gray and gloomy, the medicinal herbs in the herb field were withered and drooping, and the spring water was only a thin line flowing out, the water murky and turbid.
Su Wanqing understood instantly.
Space is using its primal energy to fight against the immense and malevolent aura from the outside world, protecting her.
But this confrontation is draining everything from space.
If this continues, the space will collapse!
what to do?
In the nick of time, a thought flashed through her chaotic mind.
That mysterious dark gold metal piece that I found at the ghost market!
With a thought, the metal piece covered in dragon scale patterns appeared out of thin air.
Buzz—!
A loud buzzing sound shook Su Wanqing so much that her soul felt like it was about to break.
The metal sheet shone brightly, and a vast, ancient, and supremely powerful aura erupted.
Su Wanqing's core jade pendant, which she wore close to her body, was summoned and flew into the space on its own, hovering in mid-air and emitting a soft light.
One gold and one white, two beams of light resonated in the air.
Whoosh!
The metal sheet transformed into a golden streak of light, shooting fiercely into the spring's source with unparalleled power!
Boom!
The entire space exploded.
A terrifying energy surge swept wildly in a ring around the spring.
In this storm, Su Wanqing's consciousness was not even a speck of dust; it was instantly blown away, her soul wracked with pain, and she was on the verge of collapse.
She watched helplessly as the end of the world came.
The sky, that gray and desolate sky, began to show spiderweb-like cracks from its center, and then with a "crack," it shattered completely! Countless fragments fell into the chaotic void below.
The earth, that black soil that bears countless rare medicinal herbs, was torn open by the violent earthquake, leaving deep, bottomless rifts.
The wooden house she built with her own hands collapsed with a crash and turned to dust.
destroy!
Her connection with space was rapidly severing, and a tremendous panic gripped her heart.
No!
She can't lose her space!
That was the foundation of her livelihood, and her last hope to rescue Lu Zhanting!
In the final moment before her soul dissipated, Su Wanqing unleashed all her willpower, resolutely throwing her last remaining spiritual power into the center of destruction and chaos!
To live and die with space!
The moment her soul touched the core of that raging energy, time stood still.
At the end of destruction lies new life.
The shattered fragments of the sky reassembled in the chaos, transforming into a "sun" emitting a soft golden light, hanging high in the sky, its radiance dispelling all gloom.
The tremors of the torn earth ceased, the rift slowly healed, and the land throughout the space expanded wildly outward, tenfold, a hundredfold...
The small medicinal herb garden has been transformed into a vast plain, with even rolling hills rising in the distance.
The dried-up spring has transformed into a vast lake, its water a pure, milky white, radiating an aura so rich it seems impossible to dispel.
In the center of the lake, a small white jade island quietly rises.
The dark gold metal plate, embedded in the center of the island, beats like a heart, providing a continuous source of energy to the entire space. The core jade pendant hangs on the island, its brilliance complementing the metal plate, creating a perfect energy cycle.
The spiritual spring evolved into the spiritual lake.
On the original site of the wooden house, a simple and elegant three-story pavilion has sprung up, with three large characters on the plaque: "Hall of Inheritance".
Space has evolved.
Su Wanqing's consciousness floated in the newly born world, and the vast and pure spiritual energy surged into her nearly shattered soul, frantically nourishing, repairing, and strengthening it.
What was originally a babbling brook of spiritual energy has instantly become a surging river.
When she opened her eyes again, everything in the entire space was presented to her perception with an attitude of absolute control.
With a thought, she was already standing in front of the "Hall of Inheritance".
Pushing open the door, you'll find a real alchemy room on the first floor, where a cluster of golden flames burns quietly beneath an ancient bronze furnace.
The second floor is a library, where a rare copy of "The Thirteen Needles of Ghosts" sits quietly on a white jade desk. When she touched it, the entire book's contents transformed into a torrent of information, instantly imprinting themselves into her mind, making all the profound mysteries of the acupuncture techniques clear to her.
The three floors were completely empty, except for a miniature three-dimensional sand table made of light, which was the complete model of the entire space.
She probed the sand table with her spiritual power.
Instantly, several brand new runes lit up.
"Time Flow"! One day outside is ten days in this space, consuming spiritual energy up to a hundred times more!
"Spiritual Sense Projection"! This allows you to project your spiritual sense into space and explore everything within a one-kilometer radius!
"Spatial Barrier"! Actively isolates and purifies negative external energy, significantly reducing energy consumption!
These are divine skills that can turn the tide of battle!
Su Wanqing did not delay any longer.
She came to the shore of Linghu Lake, scooped up a handful of milky white lake water and drank it.
Pure energy instantly filled my limbs and bones, sweeping away all the deficiencies, and my body felt lighter than ever before.
She arrived at the medicinal herb field, and wherever her thoughts went, the seeds of the herbs for refining the enhanced "Heart-Clearing Pill" were automatically sown.
Activate "Time Flow"!
The light and shadows distorted above the medicinal field, and the seeds germinated, grew, blossomed, and bore fruit at a speed visible to the naked eye, all within minutes.
Harvesting and processing are all accomplished in the blink of an eye.
She entered the Hall of Inheritance, sat cross-legged in front of the alchemy furnace, added medicinal herbs, and ignited the golden flames at the bottom of the furnace.
Purification, fusion, and condensation!
The furnace lid was opened, revealing twelve pills, each the size of a longan and covered with golden patterns, emitting a refreshing fragrance.
Golden-Patterned Heart-Clearing Pill, complete!
The medicine is more than ten times more effective than before, and it can better protect the heart!
After doing all this, Su Wanqing went to the third floor and activated "Divine Sense External Release".
Buzz!
Her vision suddenly opened up, and a 360-degree holographic view of the entire jungle flooded into her mind.
Their vision penetrated through layers of branches and leaves, quickly pinpointing the team's location.
Eight hundred meters ahead in the ravine, large patches of scarlet vines lay hidden beneath fallen leaves, with several animal skeletons, drained of their life force, scattered around them.
A death trap.
What chilled her to the bone was that on the other side of the trap, a five-person squad was silently flanking the group from the flank.
They are swift in action and work in perfect coordination; they are professional assassins.
Are they from the Song family? Or some other force?
The visitor is not friendly.
Su Wanqing withdrew her divine sense, and her consciousness returned to her physical body.
Outside, five minutes.
She suddenly opened her eyes, a glint of light flashing within them.
His pale complexion had long since regained its rosy hue, and his weak breath had vanished, replaced by an unfathomable composure and confidence.
"Team Leader Su, you..." Li Weiguo and Wang Ying were so shocked by her completely different aura that they were speechless.
Su Wanqing did not explain, but stood up, a porcelain bottle already in her hand.
"Everyone, change to the new pills." She distributed the Golden Pattern Heart-Clearing Pills. "Throw away all the old ones."
The soldiers did as instructed immediately. The pills melted in their mouths, and a warm current instantly dispelled all fatigue and chill, invigorating their spirits!
"Everyone stand up!" Su Wanqing's voice turned cold and sharp.
"There's a Heart-Eating Vine trap 800 meters ahead in the mountain hollow. Wang Ying, you take three people and sprinkle this packet of powder around the outside of the trap." She handed over a packet of powder.
"Professor Li, you and Zhang Tie, lead a team to flank from the left and prepare to close the gap."
"The rest of you, follow me and advance from the right flank!"
Her voice was filled with an undeniable air of ruthlessness.
“There are five ‘wild dogs’ approaching directly in front of us.”
"I want to live!"
With divine guidance and absolute power, Su Wanqing completely transformed from a passive defender into an active hunter.
From this moment on, she will rule this jungle war.
