Protagonist:
Xu Zhangqing
Only saw Lu Chen Yuan form hand seals with both hands, one array pattern after another emerging from his body, spreading ceaselessly in all directions.
When it covered a certain range, surging mana was poured into it, the array activated instantly, and the surrounding Mysterious Yellow Primal Qi was forcibly drawn in, gathering endlessly to form a huge yellow vortex.
In the vortex, turbid qi roiled, faintly emanating a heart-palpitating pressure.
After a moment, at the center of the vortex, a huge eye emerged.
It occupied more than half the field of vision in the void.
The pupil was a murky grayish-yellow, like soil long rotted.
The whites were a dark earthy yellow, covered with crisscrossing cracks, like earth about to shatter.
The scene before his eyes was so familiar.
Xu Zhangqing recovered from his shock and said in a deep voice: "This is the eye of the Tu Soil God."
Bei Qingtang controlled by the Wu Sheng Chong Mu, a trace of greed flashed in her eyes: "Not bad. Through this eye, we can approach the true body of the Tu Soil God."
By then, we only need Lu Chen Yuan……
But before the sentence was finished, the topic turned the next second: "However, to approach Him, or even tame Him, one must possess something related to Earth Qi."
For example, Dragon Veins, Tu Soil Dragon Pearls, or a pure Earth Spiritual Root.
Otherwise, any existence approaching the Tu Soil God will be eroded by its turbid qi, turned into a pool of rotten mud, and ultimately become part of the fertilizer.
Xu Zhangqing hesitated, but still couldn't help asking: "I'm curious. You've already mastered the Xuan River Water, so why do you still want to control the Tu Soil God?"
Xuan River Water and the power of the Tu Soil God both belong to primal power.
And the Wu Sheng Chong Mu is merely an insect, without any Spiritual Root at all.
That she can master Xuan River Water is already impressive; if she goes on to master the primal power of the Tu Soil God, I fear it won't end well.
The Wu Sheng Chong Mu controlled Bei Qingtang's flesh body and suddenly sneered, her tone laced with undisguised ambition: "You think mastering Xuan River Water is enough for me?"
She raised a hand to point at the huge eye floating in the void, the greed in her eyes growing more intense, and she no longer concealed it, speaking plainly: "The Tu Soil God is a Tai Gu Shen Zhu, wielding the Authority of Reincarnation."
My current methods are merely borrowing another's body; even mastering Xuan River Water, I am ultimately rootless wood and sourceless water.
Only by mastering the primal power of the Tu Soil God can I advance further, steal His Authority of Reincarnation, and free myself from the shackles of the body."
Xu Zhangqing stared wide-eyed: "You want to reincarnate?!"
The Tu Soil God and the Lord of Binding—only these two can reincarnate endlessly.
Never expected that the Wu Sheng Chong Mu's ambition would be so great.
So great that she is even willing to actively abandon the title and cultivation of "Immortal Shedding."
But if it succeeds……just thinking about that scene makes one shiver.
The Wu Sheng Chong Mu's tone grew ever more frenzied: "Once I master the Authority of Reincarnation, and add the power of Xuan River Water, it will be equivalent to controlling the primal Spiritual Energy of both Water and Earth."
By then, I will be the true 'God' of the Tianyuan Realm!"
Hearing this, Xu Zhangqing trembled all over, his eyes full of disbelief.
The Wu Sheng Chong Mu actually had ambition so great as to want to steal a god's Authority.
Once she succeeds, the consequences are unthinkable; the Tianyuan Realm will surely fall into Ten Thousand Calamities from which it cannot recover.
Kong Ling listened from the side, his heart pounding with fear, and couldn't help sending a mental message: "Master, this demoness is too mad; we absolutely cannot let her succeed!"
Xu Zhangqing did not answer, only his expression grew ever more solemn.
He knew the Wu Sheng Chong Mu's schemes were far from as simple as they appeared on the surface; what seemed like frankness now actually concealed other plots.
Just as Xu Zhangqing was uncertain and suspicious, the Wu Sheng Chong Mu acted.
She controlled Bei Qingtang's flesh body, disregarding the pressure of the Mysterious Yellow Primal Qi, and went straight toward the Tu Soil God's Divine Eye.
Know this: a single strand of Mysterious Yellow Primal Qi weighs a million jin.
Anyone approaching it, if slightly careless, will become a pool of rotten mud.
"You damn it!"
Xu Zhangqing's heart tightened; there was no time to think further. After storing the panicked Kong Ling into the Fangcun Ring, he flashed his figure and followed.
He absolutely could not let Bei Qingtang's corpse suffer any harm, even though she had long lost her Divine Soul, even though she was merely a body—he himself must protect her well.
Seeing Xu Zhangqing indeed take the bait, the Wu Sheng Chong Mu controlled Bei Qingtang's mouth corner, hooking up a strange smile, thinking to herself: "Indeed, humans are foolish creatures; even though Bei Qingtang is dead, he still cannot let go of this bone-deep evil fate."
Back then, why did I remind Bei Qingtang to find someone to marry?
Wasn't it all for this day!
Everything is going according to plan; all the chess pieces are in perfect positions.
Bei Qingtang, Xu Zhangqing, Lu Chen Yuan—all are being used.
As for Xu Zhangqing's background, the Wu Sheng Chong Mu had long since learned it through Bei Qingtang.
Knowing he possesses Water and Wood Spiritual Roots, and the Wood Spiritual Root happens to counter Earth.
This is also why He suddenly approached him at this time.
Not approaching the Tu Soil God early, not late, but precisely at this time?
By then, as long as Xu Zhangqing can approach the Tu Soil God, the Wu Sheng Chong Mu will forcibly inject a portion of Xuan River Water, and then use his Water-Wood Spiritual Root ability to build a bridge of communication between man and the Tu Soil God.
By then, the Wu Sheng Chong Mu will use the prepared Tu Soil Dragon Pearl to seize the opportunity to control the Tu Soil God, and thus take the Authority of Reincarnation.
In the end, Xu Zhangqing is merely a chess piece in my hand.
Seemingly powerful, yet always swayed by emotion.
But Wu Sheng Chong Mu never expected that, although she had planned everything and used everyone, she was ultimately one move short.
Xu Zhangqing caught up to Bei Qingtang's corpse, held her in his arms, and facing the Wu Tu Divine Eye, not only did he not resist, he instead activated the Earth Dragon Transformation; the Earth Dragon bloodline began to take effect, and his affinity with Earth Qi reached its peak at this moment.
In fact, Xu Zhangqing had seen this giant eye before.
Previously, in the Yin River, he had once mistakenly entered it, knowing that behind that giant eye was actually connected to the Qing Di Back Garden.
Just as the Wu Tu Divine Eye released Turbid Qi, about to envelop both of them, Xu Zhangqing not only did not dodge, but instead allowed the Turbid Qi to wrap himself and Bei Qingtang's corpse together.
Seeing this, Wu Sheng Chong Mu shouted fiercely: "Xu Zhangqing, are you insane?!"
She simply could not understand why the other party would actively throw themselves into the Turbid Qi of the Wu Tu God; this was clearly seeking death.
The key was that she had not yet had time to inject the water of the Xuan River, nor had she had time to build a bridge to communicate with the Wu Tu God.
The next second, a strange scene occurred.
Under the wrapping of the endless Turbid Qi, the figures of Xu Zhangqing and Bei Qingtang were suddenly sucked into the Wu Tu Divine Eye and vanished on the spot.
And, Wu Sheng Chong Mu discovered that she could actually no longer control Bei Qingtang's flesh body, and the insect parasitizing within her body had actually severed its connection!
