Chapter 227
Just as everyone was relieved, a young man in white came slowly towards them from a distance. His face was stern, but his eyes were solemn.
"Do you think you can stop the dark forces in this way?" the young man asked quietly.
Gu Shihan stepped forward and said, "We know it won't be that easy. After all, the dark forces have penetrated deep into our territory for a long time. It's too early to restore the situation to its previous state. But, sir, who are you? Are you an enemy or a friend?"
The young man smiled and said, "My name is Ling Xu. I was asked by an immortal from the upper realm to come and help you. The sources of this dark power are not limited to the few places you have destroyed. You still have a long and arduous road ahead."
Everyone looked worried. Gu Jiahui said, “We know that if one day doesn’t work, we’ll do it in two days. If one year doesn’t work, we’ll do it in ten years. Anyway, we won’t give up.
Ling Xu nodded gently, "Your determination is admirable, but courage alone is not enough. There is a place sealed by darkness ahead, where the dark power is awakening, and it must be sealed again when it wakes up and escapes.
Gu Shihan's eyes were firm: "Let's set off immediately to the place sealed by darkness." Ling Xu nodded and led everyone forward.
Along the way, everyone felt the oppressive dark atmosphere more and more. After arriving at the destination, they saw a huge dark vortex in the middle of a desolate land, and there were faintly shining seal runes around it.
Just as they were about to reinforce the seal, countless black tentacles suddenly stretched out from the dark vortex and attacked them. Ling Xu took the lead and shot out several rays of light to cut off some of the tentacles. Gu Shihan and others also cast spells to resist.
However, the dark power is getting stronger and stronger, and it is about to break through the seal. Gu Shihan thinks of a quick solution. She joins Wen Xin and Gu Jiahui to merge the power of the three people's guardian rings and inject them into the Purifying Pearl. The Purifying Pearl's light surges and turns into a light curtain pressing towards the dark vortex.
Seeing this, everyone transferred their own power over. With everyone's concerted efforts, the dark vortex gradually shrank, and the surrounding dark runes stabilized again.
Finally, the dark vortex stopped surging and was completely sealed. Ling Xu looked at everyone with satisfaction and said, "Seeing what you have done, I, Ling Xu, have also been moved by you. Here is a tip for you. If you want to completely suppress the extra darkness, you must find the heart of this world. There is something wrong with it."
"Heart of the World, what's wrong with it?" A flash of surprise crossed Gu Jiahui's eyes. In his memory, he had indeed heard of the term "Heart of the World".
Ling Xu looked at the few people and said calmly: "In my fairyland, each layer has a small world heart, and they revolve around the largest world heart."
"Senior Lingxu, this fairyland has nine heavens. Does that mean there are nine world hearts?" Wen Xin asked.
"No, there are ten. The largest world heart is the universe heart of the entire fairy world. However, hundreds of thousands of years ago, there was a loophole in the world heart of the first heaven. It seems that there was a dark thread from the outside world that penetrated and eroded the world heart of this world. Because the strength of the first heaven is not as good as other places, it was too late when it was discovered.
Alas, hundreds of thousands of years of infiltration is not so easy to contain, and there is nothing that can replace the corrupted Heart of the World, so it is too difficult to purify it.
Later, the big guys in the world could only place their hopes on the cultivators themselves. They started from various places, selected suitable people, and waited for the perfect moment when the time, place and people were right, and then gave a helping hand.
You? You should be one of them. Today, I, Ling Xu, revealed the news to you, which can be regarded as a little help to you. The truth is that I, Ling Xu, was born and raised in the fairy world. Too much intervention will alarm the movement of the dark forces and accelerate the corrosion of the heart of the world. Therefore, everything can only be discovered by yourselves. "
Gu Shihan asked hurriedly: "Senior Lingxu, where is the heart of the world?"
Ling Xu shook his head, "I don't know the exact location, but it must be in the purest and most yang or the most yin place in this world. Goodbye!"
Gu Shihan could only watch the white-robed young man Ling Xu leave. After pondering for a moment, he said, "Then let's go find the place with the most yang energy first. I heard that the place where the sun rises in the east has extremely strong yang energy. Perhaps the heart of the world is there." Everyone nodded in agreement and headed towards the east.
Halfway through the journey, they encountered a maze filled with illusions, and as soon as they entered, they saw all kinds of beautiful past scenes appear before their eyes.
Wen Xin almost fell into it, but fortunately Gu Jiahui pulled her back in time. Gu Shihan sacrificed the Purifying Pearl, which emitted a soft light and gradually dispelled the confusion.
After finally passing through the maze, everyone felt that they were getting closer and closer to the sunrise in the east because the yang energy around them was becoming stronger and stronger.
Suddenly, a huge golden crow beast blocked their way. The golden crow was surrounded by flames and looked very aggressive.
Gu Jiahui stepped forward to explain their purpose, but Jinwu didn't seem to believe them and thought they came for the treasures here.
Gu Shihan stated that he only wanted to save the first level of the fairyland. After thinking for a long time, Jinwu said that he could let them go in and check, but if they had any bad intentions, they would not be forgiven.
Everyone walked carefully past the Golden Crow and headed towards the most dazzling place, wondering if they could really find the heart of the world.
"Shi Han, I feel like there's something weird here. The heart of the world might really be here, but I'm afraid we can't do anything with just a few of us!" Wen Xin whispered.
"I know. We just need to determine the location and wait for the arrival of others. We must purify the Heart of the World. I just don't know if this Purification Pearl will be useful."
Under the guidance of Jinwu, the three of them vaguely saw a heart-shaped object, but around it, there were faint strands of black moving around, trying to enter it.
"Back off, if you move forward those black silks will sense something is wrong!" Without saying a word, Jinwu flapped his wings and Gu Shihan and the others were taken away from here.
"Jinwu, why did you bring us out before we have figured out the situation clearly?!" Wen Xin shouted in dissatisfaction.
"Stupid, look carefully. If you wait another second, you will become the food for the black silk."
"Hanhan, let me out!" Xingbai transmitted the message through the space.
Xingbai left the space, and Yutong followed him out. When Xingbai landed, there was a flash of white light, and a handsome young man in a white robe appeared in front of everyone.
The young man had red lips and white teeth, and was very handsome. As expected of a member of the Sky Fox clan, his appearance was outstanding, without any flaws, he was absolutely perfect.
Jinwu's eyes widened, and he circled around Xingbai, saying in disbelief: "Nine-tailed Sky Fox? You are a Nine-tailed Sky Fox, but aren't all Nine-tailed Sky Foxes extinct? Am I dazzled?"
"Jinwu, what are you talking about? What do you mean by extinction?" Yu Tong's face suddenly turned gloomy and she said dissatisfiedly.
"Hey, Fire Phoenix, don't be angry. I'm telling the truth. Not only is the Nine-tailed Sky Fox clan extinct in the fairy world, but your Fire Phoenix clan is also dwindling in numbers, with less than a hundred people left, and your bloodline is not pure."
