Chapter 336 At the critical moment, it depends on my wife
Chu Xuanyi looked at the black gelatinous substance on the ground that was still wriggling slightly, and he felt unwell.
"No, what the hell is this place?" He took two steps back with a look of disgust, afraid that the thing would get on his boots. "You can't even use a proper spell, how can we fight?"
"It's not just you," Duan Yan said, his face gloomy as he weighed the huge hammer in his hand. "I feel like this hammer is sometimes light and sometimes heavy. I can't exert any power at all. Just now, for a moment, it was as light as a piece of straw."
He slammed the hammer to the ground.
Normally, this blow would be enough to crack the ground.
But this time, the giant hammer only made a dull sound when it hit the stone slab, as if it had hit a huge piece of marshmallow, soft and without any strength at all.
Duan Yan's expression became even uglier.
"My power has also been disrupted by the ghost rules here."
"It's the same for me," Lingxi said, closing his eyes and frowning. "I can't feel the forest or the earth at all. Everything here is dead. I can't borrow any power from them."
Ling, who had been silent all this time, slowly spoke.
"I just tried to condense water vapor. Water droplets appeared, but some of them flew towards the upside-down earth in the sky, and the rest turned into boiling steam."
One piece of bad news after another made the atmosphere in the team increasingly solemn.
Spells will become useless, power will fluctuate, natural forces will be unable to communicate, and even the most basic water element will begin to become uncontrollable.
They are like a group of tigers with their claws plucked out, with a lot of skills but nowhere to display them.
"Then...what about you, Your Highness?" Gongshu Ming looked at Xiao Yu cautiously, holding a pile of spare parts salvaged from the wreckage of the Boundary-Breaking Shuttle.
Xiao Yu didn't say anything. He slowly raised his right hand and tried to circulate the internal energy in his body.
He struggled immensely before he managed to condense a ball of faint golden light in his palm.
The light was not even as bright as a candle.
"My strength has also been suppressed by more than 90%." Xiao Yu retracted his palm and came to a conclusion that made everyone's heart sink.
It's over.
It's really over now.
There was only one exception.
Jiu looked at this bizarre world curiously.
But in Ajiu's divine eyes, the scene of this world is completely different.
It is no longer an upside-down sky and burning rivers.
Instead, it is a huge and messy web woven together by countless "silk threads" of different colors and thicknesses.
The gray thread represents gravity, which is randomly tied into countless knots here, so it appears and disappears, and is sometimes strong and sometimes weak.
The blue thread represents the flow of water, which has been artificially twisted into a braid, with one end connected to the abyss and the other end connected to the sky, so the river burns backwards.
And those colorful silk threads that represent magic, power, and vitality are now like a ball of wool that has been played with by a cat, tangled together in a mess, with no clue at all.
Chaos is only an appearance. Its essence is that the basic rules that constitute the world have been forcibly distorted by humans.
Looking at the mess in front of him, Jiu didn't feel any discomfort. Instead, he had an inexplicable urge to reach out and "straighten it out."
She subconsciously stretched out her hand.
"Ajiu, don't move." Xiao Yu noticed her movements immediately and quickly stopped her.
But it was too late.
Ajiu's hand gently touched the "silk threads" in the air that only she could see.
She gently untied a tangled gray thread and tenderly straightened a twisted blue thread.
Buzz.
An invisible wave quietly spread out with Ajiu as the center.
Chu Xuanyi, who was sighing, suddenly froze.
"Eh," he said in surprise, "Do you feel like... it's not that uncomfortable anymore?"
"Indeed." Duan Yan also felt the change, and he slammed the giant hammer to the ground again.
Boom.
This time there was a loud, clear and solid sound, and his familiar feeling of power returned.
"My hammer is obedient." he exclaimed in surprise.
"My water droplets..." Ling stretched out her hand, and a crystal clear ball of water floated gently in her palm, emitting a gentle coolness.
"I... I seem to be able to feel a little bit... a faint hope of life again." Lingxi also opened his eyes, his face full of disbelief.
Everyone looked towards the center of the change in shock.
Ah Jiu, who stretched out his hand and was "fiddling" with the air seriously.
Around them, within a radius of about ten feet, everything returned to normal.
Gravity became stable, the air was no longer oppressive, and even the chaotic energy seemed to become much docile.
"Ajiu, you...what did you do?" Chu Xuanyi asked stutteringly. He felt that his worldview had been refreshed again.
Jiu tilted his head and thought for a moment, then explained.
"Everything here is a mess." She gestured around. "I just put it in order a little bit."
Tidying up... a little bit.
Everyone looked at each other, and saw a hint of shock in each other's eyes.
It turns out that the true power of the tomb keeper's bloodline is not simply "seeing through" or "purification."
That is a higher level of power, almost like a "god".
It is "weaving" and "definition", the ability to directly modify the rules of the world.
"I understand," Gongshu Ming suddenly slapped his thigh and said excitedly, "Princess, she... she is a humanoid 'law stabilizer'. As long as she is by our side, we can temporarily ignore the chaotic rules of this world."
"More than just a stabilizer," Xiao Yu looked at Ajiu, his eyes gleaming with pride, "She is our only beacon here."
In this strange world, Jiu became the team's only navigator and shelter.
"Ajiu," Xiao Yu walked to her side and gently held her hand, "Are you tired?"
"Not tired," Ah Jiu shook his head, then pointed in a direction and said to Xiao Yu, "Brother Xiong Xiong, over there."
"What's going on over there?"
"That's the messiest part. All the threads are there, and there's the biggest, blackest, nastiest knot."
Everyone understood what she meant instantly.
The center of the plane, where the most powerful evil thoughts are located.
The target was found.
"Okay," Xiao Yu nodded, "Let's go to the most chaotic place."
"Everyone, follow Ah Jiu closely."
Ajiu walked in the middle, her hands constantly fiddling with the invisible threads in the air.
With her as the center, a "safe zone" with a diameter of ten feet moves as she moves.
This road is not easy to walk on.
Although the "safe zone" created by Jiu protected them from the direct erosion of the law of chaos, the malice of this world itself was like a maggot in the bone, penetrating every pore.
"Look over there," Chu Xuanyi suddenly pointed to a place outside the safe zone and said in a low voice, "Is that mountain...looking at us?"
Everyone looked in the direction he pointed, and saw a distorted black mountain in the distance. On the mountain, a huge single eye slowly opened, and its cold gaze stared at their team.
