Chapter 178 Resurrection of Yuanwu Star
Chapter 178 Resurrection of Yuanwu Star
The thoughts of remembrance can be put aside for the time being. Bai Yanlan and the other two couldn't wait to enter the center of the earth through the natural chasm.
The route opened up by the giant lizards had not yet been completely buried by sandstorms, and the tunnel was even spacious enough for the three of them.
It was pitch black underground, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.
Bai Yanlan pinched her fingers and released a ball of light which condensed in her hand, barely illuminating the ground.
"These...are skeletons?"
In the long and narrow road, the corpses of various creatures were scattered in all directions.
Originally, after a living being began to practice cultivation, its bones, muscles, flesh and blood had all undergone extensive training, and it was common for its body to remain intact for a thousand years. As for its bones, if properly preserved, they could even exist for nearly ten thousand years.
However, as Yuanwu Star became a dead star, the energy in these skeletons continued to dissipate, and they have become extremely fragile. Even if they are lightly touched, they will turn into powder.
From the corpses along the way, it is not difficult to imagine what kind of brutal battle this place experienced in the past. All the creatures on Yuanwu Star rushed forward one after another, just to stop the giant lizards.
Unfortunately, they failed in the end.
When Bai Yanlan and the other two saw this scene, they fell silent. While rushing down quickly, they tried their best to avoid the corpses. When Yuan Wuxing was resurrected, these bones might have a chance to turn into fossils and guard this place forever.
There is no trace of life under the ground of Yuanwu Star now. The original underground river is only a dried-up riverbed, and there is no trace of the creatures living underground.
Further down, the underground lava has cooled and the magma has long stopped boiling. One can only roughly tell what the stones used to be by their shapes.
The temperature dropped as they went further down. The entire passage became unusually quiet, with only the heavy footsteps of the three people and their increasingly heavy breathing being the only sounds.
Deep underground, the air was so thin that it almost didn't exist. The pitch-black and enclosed space was oppressive for no reason. Bai Yanlan even felt that the gravity underground was much greater, and her small body could hardly bear it.
The three of them kept absorbing spirit stones to replenish their energy as they continued running downwards. They didn't know how long they had walked in the darkness before they finally reached the center of the earth.
To everyone's surprise, the center of the earth was not solid, but a hollow supported by a huge skeleton.
The skeleton had been here for who knows how many years, but it was still strong. The thinnest bone spurs were thicker than the three of them hugging each other. When they got close to the skeleton, they could still feel its pressure, which was still enough to make people breathless.
Looking at the skeleton of this unknown giant beast, Bai Yanlan suddenly had an absurd guess in his mind: "The so-called star core, could it be the inner elixir of this giant beast?"
But then I think it's impossible. What kind of giant beast must be to be able to support the energy of an entire small world after its death?
"It could also be the guardian beast of the star core."
The truth was not that important at the moment. Bai Yanlan took out the jade box swiftly and said, "Next, it's time to witness a miracle."
As soon as the box was opened, the star core that had been quietly inside the jade box suddenly moved and floated straight towards the skull of the giant beast.
Bai Yanlan and others then discovered that a large hole had been knocked out on the top of the hard skull by an external force, and there were several huge skulls scattered on the ground.
The star core drilled in through the big hole and then settled down in the skull.
Then the giant beast's dry bones began to light up inch by inch, and their original gray and dry appearance faded away, becoming as smooth as jade, emitting a little fluorescence.
The skull fragments scattered on the ground flew back to the top of the head under the attraction of the mysterious force, and glued together again. The entire skull protected the star core tightly.
A warm force rushed out from the core of the star, like a breeze blowing across the entire center of the earth, and then spread outward.
The entire Yuanwu Star came back to life at this moment.
Song Kuang looked at the center of the earth, which had not changed much, and asked uncertainly, "Is this all right?"
The whole process was so smooth that it was unbelievable.
The next moment, Heaven gave them an answer.
A golden light penetrated through the layers of the earth's crust and enveloped the three people. The rich power of merit wrapped them like a thick cocoon. It took a long time for all of it to line up and enter the bodies of the three people.
"It is the Heavenly Dao that has sent down the power of merit." Xu Jiayi said happily: "The Heavenly Dao of Yuanwu Star has awakened again."
After Yuanwu Star became a dead star, the Heavenly Dao here also fell into a long sleep. Originally, "He" thought that he would be annihilated in his sleep, but he did not expect that he would be awakened one day.
Therefore, the first thing he did after waking up was to bestow great merits on the three people who awakened Yuanwuxing and awakened him.
After confirming that the star core had indeed begun to take effect, Bai Yanlan and the other two did not stay any longer and returned to the ground along the original path.
As soon as the three of them flew out of the chasm, they saw a man holding a big rock and grinning foolishly.
"Not forgetting?"
Xu Jiayi recognized the man at a glance. It was Xue Buwang, who had opened Yuanwu Trading Company all over the world.
Xue Buwang's real name was Xue Qi. Later, in order to remind himself not to forget his hometown and not to forget the blood feud, he changed his name to Xue Buwang.
He got the news from Xu Jiayi and learned that they had obtained the star core and were going to revive Yuanwu Star, so he rushed over with all his wealth.
"Xu Jiayi, you guys are out." Xue Buwang showed everyone a big stone like he was presenting a treasure. "Look, this is the stone tablet of my sect."
The boulder was dug out from the ground, but now it has been wiped clean.
The sword energy that had been driven into the boulder when the words were carved had long since dissipated, and the handwriting had become blurred, but one could still vaguely make out the four words "Hun Tian Sword Sect".
"That's great!" There was a hint of envy in Xu Jiayi's voice. Her former home was also designed carefully by her parents with great effort, but the materials used were ordinary. Even if it had not been destroyed in the massacre that year, it would not have been able to withstand the erosion of time.
Nowadays, it has become a luxury to find some traces of the past as a souvenir.
Fortunately, Xu Jiayi quickly put aside her complicated thoughts and enthusiastically discussed with Xue Buwang how to rebuild Yuanwu Star.
Today, Yuanwu Star has recovered, but it will take a very long time to return to its former appearance. If you want to speed up this process, you will need to invest a lot of manpower and material resources, and the most needed is financial resources.
This is also the reason why Xue Buwang has focused all his energy on business over the years. He has been working hard to accumulate resources in order to bring them back to rebuild Yuanwu Star.
In fact, developing a new world is much easier than reviving the former Yuanwu Star, and the results can be seen faster.
But no one had the heart to speak out to stop them.
After all, in a world of constant war, nothing is more important than "home".
