Chapter 121 - Dragon and Phoenix Return to the Ruins
The moment Chu Linyuan finished speaking, a whirlwind of evil energy suddenly swept up in the Immortal-killing Square!
That was not a naturally formed turbulence, but a pure stream of water gushing out from the base of the Talisman Array Tower.
Xu Nanyi's earth veins are filled with evil energy.
In the dark and inky torrent of evil spirit, the bits of starlight were like fireflies flying in the opposite direction, spiraling up along the starlight trail runes on the surface of the tower base.
The entire tower base emitted a low humming sound, as if a sleeping giant beast had been awakened.
"Earth vein resonance?!" Xie Zhao nearly jumped in shock, the Jinghong Talisman Pen in his hand glowing golden in response. "This tower base has just taken shape, and it can already activate the earth veins to provide energy independently?"
Before he finished speaking, an even more shocking change occurred—
At the center of the platform at the top of the tower, a dark golden dragon shadow composed of pure energy suddenly solidified! The dragon shadow was only three feet long, but it was vivid and lifelike, and every dragon scale was clearly visible.
It soared into the air, its head held high, and it roared silently. Even more bizarrely, the outline of this dragon's shadow bore a striking resemblance to the dark golden dragon pattern on Chu Linyuan's cheek!
"Senior brother's dragon evil has materialized?!" Su Tang's scream cut through the square.
As if in response to her exclamation, a ball of golden light suddenly exploded beside the dragon shadow.
Countless fine runes burst forth from the golden light, instantly condensing into a phoenix of rune light with a wingspan of nearly ten feet! Its tail, trailing a shimmering chain of runes, entwined with the dark golden dragon's whiskers.
Amidst the dancing dragons and phoenixes, the starlight trail runes on the surface of the tower base all lit up! The entire tower base seemed to be injected with life, and dense dark golden lines emerged on the dark surface of the meteorite iron - it was exactly the transformation of the Immortal Killing Spear Intent that Chu Linyuan had injected earlier!
"The Dragon and Phoenix Return to the Ruins..." Xie Zhao muttered to himself. Suddenly, an idea came to him. He pointed the Jinghong Talisman Pen in the air, "There is only one last step left!"
The golden light from the tip of the pen precisely struck the intersection of the dragon shadow and the phoenix talisman. The two energies, which should have repelled each other, blended perfectly thanks to the unique structure of the tower's base. A dark golden pillar of light, about ten feet in diameter, shot up into the sky, exploding with a bang thirty feet in the air, disintegrating into countless tiny golden and black dots that scattered down.
The moment the light spot touched the ground, something strange happened!
Every black rock tile in the Immortal Killing Square glowed faintly. These lights connected with each other, forming a massive formation across the square, encompassing the entire Guixu Sect—dragon shadows as the skeleton, runes as the veins, and star tracks as the arteries!
"Autonomously transforming the sect-protecting formation?!" Poisonous mist exploded uncontrollably from Luo Hongyi's fingertips. "Has this broken tower base become a spirit?"
Chu Linyuan suddenly pressed his left cheek. There, the dark golden dragon pattern that spread to the corner of his eye was burning hot.
He clearly felt that the dragon shadow within the tower's base resonated with his own Dragon Evil essence, a resonance that transcended space. Even more incredible, through this resonance, he could vaguely sense the frequency of the "door" deep within the God Burial Abyss!
"It's not the tower base that's become a spirit." Xie Zhao suddenly laughed, his Jinghong Talisman Pen trembling with excitement. "It's my senior brother's Dragon Evil and my Talisman Dao that have undergone a qualitative change in the tower base! This thing is now a super amplifier!"
As if to confirm his words, the tower base suddenly projected three rays of light. The first pierced Chu Linyuan's chest, the second connected with Xie Zhao's Jinghong Talisman Pen, and the third shot straight into the sky, tearing a golden crack about an inch long in the evil cloud.
The moment the crack appeared, strange phenomena occurred again!
The wreckage of the Scarlet Phoenix ship that was originally scattered across the square suddenly trembled.
As if summoned, the metal fragments repaired by Uncle Chen flew towards the tower's base, melting and reorganizing within the dark golden halo. In just three breaths, a spiral of metal stairs had formed around the tower's base!
"The materials adapt themselves?!" Xie Zhao's jaw dropped. "Could this tower grow to its full size on its own?"
Chu Linyuan suddenly groaned. The golden dragon pattern on his cheek shone brightly. The Immortal-Slaying Spear flew out of his hand uncontrollably, piercing the center of the tower base. As the spear trembled, all the dark gold patterns on the tower base illuminated simultaneously, forming nine slowly rotating spear shadows around the tower base!
"Spear Intent takes form, Nine Extremes protect the tower..." Uncle Chen's broom had landed on the edge of the tower's base. A flicker of reminiscence flashed through the old man's cloudy eyes. "It's just like back then..."
The ground suddenly shook violently. Everyone was stunned to discover that the rock beneath the tower's foundation was cracking. A pillar of dark blue light burst forth from the earth, lifting the entire tower three feet high! Countless tiny runes could be vaguely seen flowing within the light. This was the purest black ice evil energy from the depths of the God Burial Abyss!
"The earth veins recognize their master?!" Luo Hongyi's poison cauldron clattered to the ground. This was the first time this poison master had lost his composure and let his magic weapon drop. "Chu Linyuan, what kind of monster are you? Even the earth veins..."
She couldn't finish her words... because the suspended tower base suddenly projected a second wave of light, this time seven beams, hitting seven people from Guixu Sect respectively!
Chu Linyuan was enveloped by a dark golden beam of light, and the dragon pattern on his left face spread wildly, covering the entire left side of his body in an instant.
What was even more terrifying was that when his Immortal-Slaying Spear flew back to his hand on its own, the tip of the spear was actually wrapped with a wisp of dark blue flame - that was the highly condensed Mysterious Ice Evil Fire!
