A crazy thought, like a lightning that cuts through the darkness, instantly struck into her confused consciousness!
No! Not closed! Not annihilated!
It's...guidance! It's...transfer!
The ley lines of the City of Thorns... a network of life veins... they encompass the entire city, embedded deep within the Earth's core... they themselves are a vast and stable energy circulation system! Like the planet's own blood vessels! This violent spatial energy may be deadly, but its essence... is still energy! A chaotic, disordered, yet immensely powerful void energy!
If only... if only this surging spatial turbulence could be forcibly channeled into the earth's vein network... using the vast "vessels" of the lifeline of the City of Thorns to buffer, disperse, and channel this destructive torrent...
The thought made her shudder! It was insane! Although the earth vein network was vast, it had never been subjected to such violent and chaotic spatial energy! If she wasn't careful, not only would it fail to channel the energy, but it could also cause the entire Thorn City energy network to collapse! Even affecting the golden roots at the center of the earth!
But... this is the only chance to save Pei Du, save this area, and maybe even "recycle" it! There's no time to hesitate!
"Pei Du! Don't be annihilated!" Xu Shuangyao used up her last bit of strength and screamed in Pei Du's mind! Her voice was distorted by weakness and urgency. "Guide it! Direct the energy... to my feet! Quick!"
Pei Du's golden pupils shrank sharply! He instantly understood Xu Shuangyao's crazy plan! He looked at the pale yet resolute face of the woman in his arms, the fire of determination burning deep within the dim golden flame. No doubt! No hesitation! The moment Xu Shuangyao finished speaking, the dark power of the end gathered in his palm, ready to annihilate the rift, suddenly changed its nature!
The highly compressed annihilation force instantly transformed into a strange, end-of-life force field with powerful guiding and twisting properties! Like a huge invisible funnel!
"Open!" Pei Du shouted!
His right hand, covered in dark gold lines, pressed down suddenly! The invisible force field funnel, transformed from the power of annihilation, precisely enveloped the most violent spatial turbulence gushing out of the spatial rift! The force field forcibly distorted the turbulent flow's direction, like taming a rebellious dragon, pressing it fiercely towards the plant platform at Xu Shuangyao's feet, which was flowing with a faint golden light. There, it was a surface node of the Thorn City's earth vein life network!
At the same time, Xu Shuangyao used up the last bit of his soul power to connect with the earth beneath his feet! The golden flame mark between his eyebrows burst out with a last ray of strong light like a last ray of light!
"The ley lines...the torrent...are opening!!!"
The plant platform beneath her feet instantly erupted with an unprecedented emerald green light! The resilient vines and roots that formed the platform, as if receiving a supreme command, instantly split apart! A "wellhead" several meters in diameter, bottomless, flowing with rich, liquid, emerald green life energy, suddenly opened! The majestic earth energy, like a giant beast awakening from eons of slumber, burst forth!
Boom——!!!
The violent spatial turbulence energy that was forcibly guided by Pei Du rushed into the open emerald green "wellhead" like a mountain torrent that found an outlet!
An indescribable horror scene occurred!
Emerald green life energy collided fiercely with the pale spatial turbulence! Like boiling oil poured into ice water! A violent energy reaction erupted instantly! The entire platform trembled violently, like an earthquake! Dazzling light, mixed with the roar of energy annihilation, shot up from the "wellhead" into the sky! The emerald green "well wall"—composed of countless resilient vines and energy veins—instantly cracked under the violent impact of the spatial energy! A tooth-grinding groan emanated, as if it could be completely swept away by this destructive torrent at any moment!
Xu Shuangyao bore the brunt of the impact! As the core of the channel and the guiding node, her soul seemed to be suspended above this destructive torrent! The cold, tearing, and chaotic nature of the spatial turbulence and the warmth, repair, and order of the earth's life energy clashed and tore at her body! She felt as if her soul was being completely torn to pieces by these two diametrically opposed and terrifying forces! The light of the golden flame mark between her eyebrows instantly dimmed to the extreme, like a candle in the wind, ready to go out at any moment! She suddenly spat out a mouthful of pale golden blood, her body convulsing violently, and her consciousness, like a kite with a broken string, quickly fell into the boundless darkness!
"Shuangyao!!!" Pei Du's eyes were bloodshot! He instantly removed the guiding force field, and his arm, covered with dark gold patterns, suddenly tightened, tightly protecting Xu Shuangyao's limp body in his arms! His other hand, covered with the dark power of the end, slammed fiercely at the collision point of the violently surging energy! Trying to forcibly suppress and slow down the devastating impact!
However, the clash of spatial turbulence and earth vein energy was beyond his ability to suppress instantly! The violent energy turbulence, like an out-of-control beast, continued to madly impact the crumbling emerald green "well wall"! The cracks were rapidly expanding!
The entire evacuation node was about to collapse, and the entire area was completely blown to the sky!
Buzz——!!!
At this critical last moment!
A vast, gentle, and majestic will, like that of a mother planet, descended instantly! This will did not come from Xu Shuangyao, but from... deeper underground! From the land flowing with warm golden light!
It's the will of Gaia's core! It's the resonance of the core golden roots!
The ground of the entire City of Thorns shook slightly! All the plant veins that made up the city—vines, roots, leaves, even every single purifying plant—at that moment, simultaneously lit up with a warm and resolute light! Countless fine streams of golden light converged from all sides of the city, like billions of luminous streams, pouring into the collapsing "well wall"!
