Dust filled the air, and pebbles littered the ground.
Ning Yu supported Mu Xue, both of them breathing heavily, the fear of surviving the ordeal still gripping their hearts.
The aftershocks of the explosion made my eardrums ring and my vision blur.
Ning Yu's gaze fell on the place where the barrier had once stood, now only an empty ruin remained.
He recalled the moment before the barrier shattered, when he and Mu Xue simultaneously released their powers, which seemed to have a strange effect on the barrier.
“Barrier…our superpower…” Ning Yu murmured to himself, a bold idea emerging in his mind.
"What do you want to say?" Mu Xue asked weakly, her face pale and a trace of blood still remaining at the corner of her mouth.
Ning Yu helped Mu Xue sit down on a relatively flat rock, took a deep breath, and said, "I suspect that if our abilities are combined, we might be able to break through the barrier."
Mu Xue frowned slightly, a hint of worry flashing in her eyes: "Fusing superpowers? That's too dangerous. I've heard of cases where superpower fusion failed, and the consequences were unimaginable."
Ning Yu understood Mu Xue's concerns, but he couldn't shake off the strong premonition in his heart.
He grasped Mu Xue's hand and said firmly, "I know this is risky, but we have no other choice. If we don't break through the barrier, we'll be trapped here and never be able to leave." He paused, his tone softening, "Trust me, I will protect you."
Seeing Ning Yu's determined gaze, Mu Xue finally nodded. "Okay, I believe you."
The two sat cross-legged facing each other, extended their palms, and slowly approached.
A pale blue light emanated from Ning Yu's palm, a manifestation of his spatial ability.
Meanwhile, fiery red light surged in Mu Xue's palm—that was her fire-based superpower.
The moment two energies of different properties come into contact, a powerful repulsive force erupts!
With a loud bang, the two were thrown back several steps, and a mouthful of blood spurted from their mouths at the same time.
Ning Yu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes showing no sign of wavering...
Ning Yu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes showing no sign of weakness.
“Again!” He sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began to carefully analyze the characteristics of the two people’s superpowers.
Spatial abilities focus on controlling space, twisting, folding, and even creating independent spaces; while Mu Xue's fire-based abilities are violent and scorching, possessing extremely strong destructive power.
The two superpowers are completely different, like water and fire; forcibly fusing them will only lead to rejection and backlash.
Mu Xue was also trying hard to recall what she knew about the fusion of superpowers, but unfortunately, her knowledge was very limited.
“I once heard an old scholar say that the key to fusion of superpowers lies in finding the point of convergence between the two powers, like the harmony of yin and yang, the balance of strength and gentleness…” She frowned, trying to search for fragments of memory, “but he didn’t say exactly how to do it…”
“The point of convergence…” Ning Yu repeated these three words in a low voice, and suddenly understood.
Spatial abilities can compress and expand, and fire also requires space to burn.
If spatial abilities could be transformed into a container, and the release of fire-based abilities could be controlled and guided, perhaps the rejection reaction could be avoided.
Thinking this, Ning Yu opened his eyes again, a determined light shining within them. "Mu Xue, let's do it again! This time, follow my command!"
What followed was a series of attempts.
Failure after failure, backlash after backlash.
Ning Yu was covered in wounds from the rejection reaction of the superpower, his body was covered with small cuts, and blood kept seeping out, staining his clothes red.
But he didn't give up; instead, he gradually found some patterns in his repeated failures.
He discovered that when spatial abilities enveloped fire-based abilities in a spiral shape, the repulsion reaction was somewhat reduced.
"Mu Xue, try to control your flames and compress them into a sphere as I instruct you!" Ning Yu said in a deep voice, suppressing the surging energy within him.
He extended his right hand, and a pale blue spiral halo appeared in his palm, slowly rotating.
Mu Xue took a deep breath, trying her best to control the restless fire-type superpower within her body.
A ball of fiery red light condensed in her palm, gradually compressing into a leaping fireball.
Following Ning Yu's instructions, she carefully pushed the fireball toward the spiral halo in Ning Yu's palm.
When the two energies came into contact again, the repulsive force still existed, but it was significantly weaker than before.
The spiral-shaped spatial ability slowly enveloped the fireball, like a gentle embrace.
Under the restraint of the spatial ability, the fireball became more stable and no longer raged wildly.
Seeing this, Ning Yu was overjoyed, knowing that he had found the right direction.
"Keep going! Maintain this state!" But at this moment, Mu Xue's body began to sway, her face grew paler and paler, and large beads of sweat rolled down her forehead.
"Ning Yu... I... my superpower... is almost exhausted..." Her voice was so weak that it was almost inaudible.
Seeing Mu Xue's condition, Ning Yu hesitated, unsure whether he should continue... "Mu Xue..."
Ning Yu's heart clenched suddenly.
He understood that the fusion of superpowers was an extremely dangerous process, and the slightest mistake could cause irreversible damage.
Mu Xue was already at her limit; if this continued, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Stop, Mu Xue!" Ning Yu made a decisive decision and withdrew his spatial ability. The spiral halo disappeared instantly, and the fireball extinguished as well.
Mu Xue slumped to the ground, her face deathly pale, her breathing rapid and weak. Ning Yu quickly supported her, a wave of self-reproach washing over him.
