Chapter 276 The Deteriorated Jade Spring Water
The saintess's expression gradually hardened. She reached out and brushed her forehead, presenting a glimmer of starlight to Ning Xiaoxi. "Thank you for listening to me. I'm going now."
Ning Xiaoxi casually caught the starlight and threw it into the cave. The tremors from the ground grew stronger and stronger. "I really will die."
The saint turned to face the depths of the mountains, lifted her foot, and her soft voice drifted through the air: "I'm home."
Ning Xiaoxi stood there quietly. Yes, that was its home, where its family lived.
The spiritual energy field in the south is already in complete disarray, having been drained too much for the battle. The dilapidated source of the south is no longer able to support this massive war.
Slight ripples began to appear on the calm sea surface, but they suddenly scattered into the sea before they could take shape.
Ning Xiaoxi didn't investigate what was happening in the mountains behind her, nor did she pay attention to the sea, which had become completely still. On the map in her mind, the red dot representing the Gu King was right here.
Inside the cave, the stars suspended in mid-air emitted a faint glow.
Ning Xiaoxi examined the thing carefully. It was a small, strange beast. Was this the Starry Sky Gu King?
The little thing was translucent and gelatinous, but its interior was like a miniature universe, with twinkling stars and swirling nebulae.
Its main body resembles a giant jellyfish, with a round head that emits a faint glow. Countless long tentacles hang down from the head, and the tentacles are inlaid with tiny, sand-like star crystals. These crystals constantly shimmer and change, like a flowing galaxy.
Its body is covered with a thin, faint starlight-like membrane. As it moves, the membrane refracts colorful light, as dreamlike as the aurora borealis in the universe.
At the center of its head is a huge core star, which is a deep purple color, like the most mysterious black hole in the universe. It contains endless energy and flickers rhythmically, with each flicker accompanied by changes in the intensity of the surrounding light.
Looking at this beautiful little thing in front of me, I really can't associate it with the title of Gu King.
The saintess gave her this little thing, so what else is inside her? And what will she rely on to fight against Tianxian and the Imperial Guards? Is it just to be with her people? Then why give her this little thing in the first place? It's such a contradictory feeling.
The star-like speck floated towards the little beast, but the beast slapped it away. Jiuyu opened one eye and looked at the star-like speck that had landed on his robe. He shook it off, and the speck rolled to the spot where Xiaoxue had leaned against, sticking to the fragments of pink beads on the ground.
Jiuyu suddenly opened his eyes, reached out and picked up the star-shaped object, and began to shake it. But no matter how he shook it, the pink bead fragments stuck firmly to the star-shaped object's round head, as if it were wearing a headdress. It even shook itself beautifully, with several bright pink bead fragments on its big head, which was not pretty at all.
With a grim expression, Jiuyu tossed the tiny star onto the ground and ignored it.
The pink bead fragment on Little Star's head glittered, and it rolled smoothly to the spot where Little Snow had been before and hid there.
Xiao Jiu stayed perched on the branches of the mulberry tree, watching the commotion.
Ning Xiaoxi couldn't bear to watch, but Xiaoxingdian's antics successfully made it stay put.
The red dots on the map were flashing so cheerfully that I didn't know how to express my feelings.
As she watched, Ning Xiaoxi suddenly focused on the little star that was comfortably huddled in the cave. [Tuanzi, do you think its purpose was just to come in and lie low?]
[To find a way out of a seemingly hopeless situation, and even use a puppet to fulfill one's feelings for the contractor—it's so similar! So very similar!]
Ning Xiaoxi smiled silently. No wonder she talked so freely. Sure enough, none of them who have survived to this day are easy to deal with.
Then he looked at the sleeping little beast, the Nine Realms who were avoiding him, and the indifferent Xiao Jiu. They were also from that era. Did they know how the human race defeated the demon race? Judging from their indifferent looks, they didn't seem to know completely. That made the story of the human race replacing the demon race and establishing itself in the world very interesting!
The tremors on the ground subsided, and the fluctuations of spiritual energy in the entire space were almost gone. It seemed that the damaged Southern Source could no longer sustain itself. Whether or not to retrieve it was no longer meaningful; this one great battle had already depleted it.
Lingjingxin's long whip swept up the four guards on the ground. "Yingzhou, I'll go take a look for you!" She wanted more than just the Jade Spring Water, but she also had some doubts. The South China Sea was already dead like this, so how good could Yingzhou be? Could the Jade Spring Water still exist? Sigh, let's take a look. After all, the red dot on the map is still quite stable, it doesn't even flash.
As for the thousand-year-old lightning-struck wood, we'll collect it on our return trip!
Floating on the sea, Ning Xiaoxi looked at the dark, ink-like seawater and felt a chill run down her spine. How could there be a sea so completely dead?
Unable to bear the sight any longer, Ning Xiaoxi directly located Yingzhou Island and tried using a spatial teleportation talisman.
Wow, it actually works!
Ning Xiaoxi stood on the beach of Yingzhou Island, her mood, which had just improved, sank again when she saw the desolation of the island.
This is an island spanning a hundred miles, with remnants of dilapidated mountain peaks and trees, parched and cracked land, a huge skeleton half-buried in dust, scorched earth, and black springs gushing forth.
"Huh, black spring water?" Ning Xiaoxi turned her head and took a step forward.
Between two giant rocks, there is a small opening. Black spring water flows out from the opening, forming a small stream that flows down the rocks and forms a small black pool in the depression between the two giant rocks.
It's really not easy to see water in such an environment, but the map insists that this water, which is as black as can be, is the Jade Spring Water. Isn't that a bit unfair?
As a sacred spring, it's even worse that it not only lacks fragrance but also has a faint foul odor. Has it gone bad?
Is this all it takes to help Nüba rebuild her physical body?
They pulled the little star out of the cave and threw it towards the black pool.
As a result, the tiny star made a graceful turn in mid-air and rushed back with lightning speed.
Ning Xiaoxi dodged its pounce. "This is Yingzhou. Don't you recognize it?"
The star floated in front of Ning Xiaoxi's eyes, and began to shake its soft, big head from side to side. After carefully examining it, its disdain was very obvious. The colorless head began to flash red light, causing the few pink bead fragments to also flash.
Ning Xiaoxi looked at the few fragments and decided not to make things difficult for it anymore.
After carefully examining the two boulders, I realized that since they could spout spring water, whether it was white or black, they must have a source.
