Chapter 1196 Qiongqi Key
A beam of golden light fell to the ground.
Su Xiaoya and Yu Shuheng didn't look at the light immediately, but instead exchanged a helpless glance—here we go again!
It's truly endless!
The two simply stopped paying attention and cleanly swallowed the top-grade recovery pills, quickly restoring their strength to its peak.
Su Mingyi and Langlang, however, were filled with curiosity and couldn't help but walk over and reach out to touch it.
Langlang was trapped inside the Taotie for 100,000 years, and every day when he opened and closed his eyes, he could only see a small space.
As for Su Mingyi, although he had also passed through the Witch God Mustard Seed Space and the Fusu Secret Realm, they were all within his own territory, so there was no real danger.
Therefore, the two of them were still curious and longing for various secret realms!
However, after waiting for a long time, they didn't see any light gate or anything like that, nor did they hear any mysterious voices.
The two stared at the beam of light that had passed through them, then at the light that was seeping through their fingers and being sliced into several beams, and fell silent.
So, this really, really is—a beam of light!
quiet!
When Su Xiaoya and Yu Shuheng recovered to their peak condition and walked towards the two of them, Su Mingyi and Langlang awkwardly withdrew their hands, feeling extremely embarrassed by their childishness.
However, just as Su Xiaoya and Yu Shuheng approached the beam of light, the beam of light moved!
Yes, it moved!
It actually started to circulate, and the color of the beam of light changed from a single golden beam to a seven-colored beam in an instant, as if welcoming Su Xiaoya's arrival.
Then, when Su Xiaoya looked over, it returned to its golden color!
Su Xiaoya and the other three were dumbfounded. This, this golden light has become sentient, hasn't it?
It also expresses emotions?
Yes, expressing emotions!
Now it seems that gold is the true color of this beam of light, while the rainbow beams are meant to express excitement!
Speechless.
More importantly—within that golden light, a completely black key suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
The key was about the size of a palm and had a very peculiar shape, unlike either an ordinary key or a magical artifact.
The handle of the key is engraved with a ferocious beast. The beast has wings, a tiger's head and an ox's body, sharp claws and fangs, and fierce eyes. It is Qiongqi, one of the four ancient ferocious beasts!
This key is made entirely of an unknown black metal, its surface covered with fine patterns, from which a faint black aura flows, exuding an eerie yet powerful aura.
Even more bizarrely, the key showed no spiritual energy fluctuations whatsoever, as if it were an ordinary object. Yet, the four of them could sense that the key contained a terrifying power—the kind of power that, once unleashed, would be enough to destroy the world.
It's a blessing, not a curse, but it's a curse that cannot be avoided.
After thinking for a moment, Su Xiaoya stretched out her right index finger and gently touched the key that emitted a mysterious light with her fingertip.
Just as her fingertips touched the surface of the key, suddenly, an irresistible and immense attraction struck her!
The force was so great that Su Xiaoya didn't even realize what was happening. She felt as if her body was being tightly gripped by an invisible hand, and she was being pulled forward involuntarily.
At the same time, her soul seemed to have lost control, flying rapidly towards the key...
In the blink of an eye, Su Xiaoya found herself in a strange and terrifying place—a vast, boundless blood-red wasteland, filled with a strong stench of blood and the aura of death.
Looking around, one could see skeletons lying haphazardly across the wasteland, piled up like mountains, a truly horrifying sight.
Even more terrifying, in the center of this wasteland, stands a huge, ferocious beast with a hideous face.
Its body was covered with a layer of dark red fur, sharp fangs protruded from the corners of its mouth, and a pair of eyes the size of copper bells gleamed with a fierce and cold light.
At this moment, the ferocious beast raised its head to the sky and let out a deafening roar, which seemed to make the entire wasteland tremble.
Ha ha!
Sure enough!
Su Xiaoya was already used to it and wasn't surprised at all.
This ferocious beast, what else could it be but Qiongqi!
Ha ha!
Su Xiaoya remained silent, just watching quietly.
She wanted to see what kind of trouble this Qiongqi was up to this time!
As Qiongqi's roar echoed across the sky, the once clear sky suddenly turned gloomy. Then, a torrential downpour fell from the sky, but this rain was not ordinary rain; it was blood-red water, as red as fresh blood!
Su Xiaoya's expression changed drastically; this was a bit unethical!
Who would want to be soaked in blood?
Su Xiaoya really wanted to curse right now, but unfortunately she didn't know who was behind it all.
While mentally ranting, Su Xiaoya didn't stop her hands, trying to break free by forming hand seals, only to find that her soul was firmly bound and she couldn't move at all.
Depend on!
Good luck!
She really doesn't have a hobby of collecting the Four Fiends!
What's more, it's a ferocious beast that brings its own blood rain.
She really, really doesn't have a masochistic tendency.
Just then, a jade pot suddenly floated out, emitting a white light.
A portion of the white light transformed into a transparent shield, protecting Su Xiaoya's soul and isolating her from the rain of blood outside.
Another part of the white light transformed into an ice phoenix, which pounced towards Qiongqi.
Qiongqi let out a roar and engaged in battle with Bingfeng.
Although the Ice Phoenix was powerful, it was no match for the Qiongqi.
After several rounds, Ice Phoenix was torn to pieces by Qiongqi.
Qiongqi's gaze fell on Su Xiaoya again. It opened its mouth wide and lunged to bite at Su Xiaoya's soul.
Su Xiaoya frowned deeply, concentrating intently on how to deal with the current predicament.
She closed her eyes slightly, carefully recalling all the magical treasures and abilities she possessed, trying to find an effective way to fight against the remnant soul of Qiongqi.
Ugh!
This time, even the system's communication was cut off.
Therefore, relying on oneself is worse than relying on others; this is truly a profound truth. In the future, I should also add more magical artifacts and treasures to my divine soul, and of course, the more means of attack and defense for my divine soul, the better.
Time passed second by second, and just as Su Xiaoya was feeling somewhat frustrated, suddenly, a bright light flashed through the depths of her mind.
This flash of inspiration instantly reminded her of an important scientific concept she had learned on Earth—the law of conservation of energy.
According to this law, energy does not appear or disappear without a reason, but rather is transformed or transferred in some way.
In other words, nothing can create endless energy out of nothing.
Thinking of this, Su Xiaoya was overjoyed: "If that's the case, then Qiongqi's power must also have a limit!"
She knew that although Qiongqi was extremely powerful, it could not ultimately transcend the limitations of the laws of nature.
The key factor trapping his soul at this moment was the powerful array that Qiongqi had set up inside the key.
This formation is like an impregnable fortress, continuously supplying power to Qiongqi, enabling it to firmly control the situation.
However, if the formation can be successfully destroyed, Qiongqi, having lost its stable energy supply, will inevitably be put in a passive position, thus giving itself a chance to escape its constraints.
Suddenly, Su Xiaoya's eyes widened as if she had been startled awake from a long and deep dream, grasping at that fleeting inspiration.
Without realizing it, she smiled.
Her gaze was fixed on the mysterious key in her hand, as if she were looking through it at the secret world hidden within.
The key looked ordinary, but when Su Xiaoya concentrated, she was surprised to find that its interior was covered with strange patterns that were intricate and interwoven like a spider web.
At first glance, these patterns seem completely incoherent, like a tangled mess.
However, if you examine them carefully and think about them, you will gradually understand the mystery they contain.
It turns out that these seemingly chaotic lines actually follow a unique set of rules and patterns, and these rules are precisely the core and key to the formation, also known as the "eye of the formation".
Su Xiaoya took a deep breath, mobilized all the spiritual power in her body, and carefully controlled it, gradually gathering it at her fingertips.
As time passed, that powerful spiritual energy finally condensed into a slender, crystal-clear spiritual needle.
Without hesitation, Su Xiaoya flicked her finger and pierced the spirit needle into the eye of the formation.
puff!
There was only a slight sound, as easy and simple as blowing through a thin sheet of paper.
Immediately afterwards, the entire formation collapsed as if it had lost its support, and countless rays of light shot out in all directions, transforming into the purest spiritual energy, which merged into Su Xiaoya's soul.
It was as if she had taken a powerful tonic, making her entire soul even more solid—in fact, she condensed a second primordial spirit.
Yes, it wasn't until this moment that Su Xiaoya realized that what had been captured into the key space was only a wisp of her soul, not her primordial spirit.
