Chapter 124 - Frosty Silence and Warm Sun
The tower's base trembled slightly! A dark golden dragon pattern lit up on its surface, instantly echoing the dragon pattern on his left hand!
Xie Zhao's Jinghong Fu Pen shot out into the air! The tip of the pen shone with golden light, no longer a grand splash of ink, but an extremely delicate micro-carving!
The pale golden runes, as thin as mosquito feet but containing the mysteries of the "Star Evil Codex", are like living stardust, precisely imprinted on the surface of the tower base, connecting and blending with the dragon pattern at the point of contact with Chu Linyuan's palm!
A subtle sound of energy flowing could be heard. The scorching, violent Dragon Evil Power within Chu Linyuan's left half, as if finding a new channel, began flowing into the tower along the connection point between his palm and the tower base, trickling down into the tower!
The starlight track runes on the surface of the tower base lit up, guiding the faint starlight to fall, like a sophisticated filter, tempering and purifying the violent aura remaining in the injected dragon evil, leaving only pure energy to be integrated into the tower structure!
The barely perceptible pain between Chu Linyuan's brows slowly eased. Although it was only a tiny trace, it undoubtedly proved a feasible path!
One channeled evil spirits, the other tempered them with talismans, their minds subtly connected by the energy flowing through the pagoda's base. In the dim morning light, the black-robed talisman cultivators stood side by side, one with dragon patterns flowing beneath his palm, the other with a radiant star symbol on his pen, creating a silent yet tacitly harmonious scene.
Su Tang's photo stone quietly aimed at this scene.
Boom——!!!
A sound much duller than any previous one, as if it came from the deepest part of the heart of the earth, suddenly came from the bottom of the God Burial Abyss!
The entire Immortal-Slaying Square shook violently! The talisman array's light shield flickered wildly! The stone table where everyone had just finished their porridge jumped up! The star symbols and dragon patterns flowing on the tower base were instantly disordered!
Chu Linyuan and Xie Zhao's expressions changed drastically at the same time! They suddenly looked up towards the core of the abyss!
An indescribable sense of decay, carried over from countless years... a suffocatingly huge, cold, and greedy will, like a giant beast that had been sleeping for eternity turning over, clearly transmitted through the thick evil spirit of the abyss to the depths of everyone's soul!
"The door... is open? Wasn't that door closed last time? It can't seal the things behind it..." The poisonous mist at Luo Hongyi's fingertips instantly solidified into ice crystals, and his voice was unprecedentedly solemn.
Chu Linyuan's palm, pressing on the tower's base, suddenly tightened, and the dragon pattern on his left side, which had been subdued for a while, blazed brightly once again! This time, it was no longer the pain of losing control, but a strong warning from deep within his blood... an indescribable throbbing!
Beneath the abyss, behind the torn gap, something... woke up.
The enormous will that emanated from the core of the abyss, a mixture of endless decay and icy greed, was like an invisible pour of ice water, instantly extinguishing all sounds.
Absolute silence enveloped Guixu Sect. Su Tang covered her mouth tightly, her psychic eyes reflecting the terror deep within her soul. Tie Niu's muscles flexed, and he held his breath.
Chu Linyuan's palm pressed on the base of the talisman formation suddenly tightened! His five fingers were deeply embedded in the meteorite iron!
The dark golden dragon pattern on his left half, which had been restrained for a while, suddenly burst into a dazzling golden light as if it had been splashed with boiling oil! The light was filled with the violent anger of being provoked and coveted!
"Ugh!" A low roar of pain, suppressed to the extreme, burst out from Chu Linyuan's clenched teeth! His body shook violently! The dragon pattern on his left cheek twisted wildly, trying to devour his sanity!
The will leaked from the cracks of the abyss, with the most primitive greed, accurately locked onto his dragon evil origin, wanting to drag him into darkness!
"Brother!" Xie Zhao's eyes were bloodshot, and the Jinghong Talisman Pen burst out with an unprecedented bright golden light! The instinct of protection surpassed everything!
Buzz——!!!
The Heart Talisman's radiance surged tenfold! The blazing pale golden flames no longer served as a barrier, but transformed into countless burning rune chains! These chains served not as a defense, but rather as a countercurrent to the onslaught of the greedy will, winding and burning in the opposite direction!
"Want to devour him? Have you asked me?" Xie Zhao's eyes burned with a mad fire, and a fierce arc appeared at the corner of his mouth. His spiritual power was like a boiling furnace, pouring out crazily through the heart talisman and the talisman pen!
Each burning rune chain carries his fiery will, like a red-hot iron, burning fiercely on the cold and greedy tentacles of will!
Chichichi--!!!
The harsh erosion sound turned into a painful scream! The will of the abyss was like being splashed with boiling oil, and the force of the impact suddenly stagnated!
Xie Zhao's body trembled violently, his face instantly pale, and a faint golden streak of blood oozed from the corners of his mouth. The imprint of the "Star Evil Talisman Codex" in his sea of consciousness flickered wildly, emitting an overloaded buzzing sound! But his feet seemed to have taken root, nailed to the spot, the Jinghong Talisman Pen was as steady as a rock, and the burning talisman fire chain did not retreat but advanced!
