Protagonist:
Xu Zhangqing
"The Eye of the Tu Soil God?"
Zhu Rong trembled all over, the Bian Ge Dharma Aspect behind him quivering in turn, the ever-burning candle flame even dimming somewhat: "Is it the most evil Root God from legend who governs the Ten Thousand Calamities Tu Soil, rules the turbid Yin beneath the earth, and draws the remnant souls of the Earth Veins?"
I have only seen a few words in ancient fragments, saying His body was condensed from the remnant souls of fallen Xiuxian Zhe, the turbid soil beneath the earth, the resentment of living beings, and the baleful aura of the Earth Veins.
Not entering the Six Paths of Reincarnation, yet able to borrow the Xuanhuang Qihua beneath the earth to endlessly reincarnate, an existence even ancient immortals and gods are unwilling to provoke!"
Tai Bai's Lujie Dharma Aspect, Star Sword Intent in disarray, he forced himself to calm down: "Correct, ancient records state that the Tu Soil God has no fixed Flesh Body, taking Tu Soil as body and resentment as soul; wherever He passes, Earth Veins collapse and living beings suffer.
Any realm He sets His gaze upon will become a barren Tu Soil purgatory.
We merely ventured deep into the Yin River to seek the secrets of the Xuan River, yet actually encountered this legendary existence—truly beyond expectation!"
Beneath Fenglong's Pu Hua Dharma Aspect, the Kui Ox emitted uneasy thunder, the Twenty-Four Thunder Emperor Crowns swaying slightly: "Main Body, previously in the Central Region, we once encountered a group of demons lurking in Yin Jian; they chatted at the time, saying the underground disturbances were either caused by the Tu Soil God awakening, or triggered by the reincarnation of the Lord of Binding.
Now it seems, the answer is obvious.
The source of the Earth Vein Abnormality is this Tu Soil God!"
Xu Zhangqing's Zaohua Dharma Aspect hung high, blue-black-white three-colored Spiritual Light flowing, firmly resisting the decaying pressure surging toward him; he gazed at the Tu Soil Divine Eye in the void occupying half his field of vision, his heart sinking: "I also did not expect that deep in the Yin River would hide a part of the Tu Soil God; He seems merely an eye, but is actually equivalent to a Root God's incarnation."
Nü Tu's Cheng Tian Dharma Aspect at this moment drove Earth Vein Power to the extreme, the Xuanhuang Great Seal suspended above her head, constantly resisting that deathly silence's oppression: "The Tu Soil God originally shares the same source as Earth Veins and turbid Yin; the Yin River connects to the Tianyuan Realm's underground, and is also the remnant vein after the Xuan River dried up—exactly the place most suitable for Him to hibernate.
Presumably for ten thousand years He has lain dormant here; today disturbed by us, He surely will not let it rest."
For a time, the atmosphere grew solemn to the extreme.
Five Dharma Aspects stood in the void, Spiritual Light brilliant, illuminating the dark Yin River brightly.
Xu Zhangqing stood at the center, the aura of Nascent Soul Peak unreservedly released, Withering and Flourishing Dao Rhyme, Taiyin Power, and Mayfly Divine Fire fused together, forming an impregnable defensive barrier.
Tai Bai's White Tiger Star Sword Intent was sharp and piercing, ready at any moment to unleash a killing blow.
Zhu Rong's flames surged, the phantom of the River of Civilization rushed forth, burning the filth with yang-firm fire.
Nü Tu took Earth Veins as shield, bearing and carrying all things, fully protecting everyone's Foundation.
Fenglong's Thunder Pool rolled, ten thousand thunders gathered power, vowing to cleanse evil with Nine Heavens Divine Thunder.
Two Puppets, Xu Jiuyou and Xu Zixiao stood on Xu Zhangqing's left and right, Spirit Patterns on their bodies brightening, ready at any moment to protect the Main Body.
Everyone stood ready for battle, minds and spirits tense to the extreme.
Facing a most evil Root God like the Tu Soil God from legend, let alone them being merely at the Yuan Ying Level, even if truly entering the Incarnation Stage, they might not have the power to fight.
At this moment, besides fighting to the death to resist, there was no second path.
In the void, the Tu Soil Divine Eye continued to turn, its gaze sweeping across Xu Zhangqing and the others, as if trying to confirm something.
After a while, the turbid gray-yellow pupils finally fixed.
And the final gaze stared fixedly at Xu Zhangqing.
That gaze had not a shred of emotion, yet could penetrate the Flesh Body and see through the Divine Soul.
It clearly saw Xu Zhangqing's Withering and Flourishing Great Dao, Taiyin Power, Water-Wood Spiritual Root, even the Heaven-Earth Xuan Seal in his Qi Sea and Superior Nascent Soul.
The next moment, heaven and earth changed dramatically.
The entire Yin River suddenly boiled; the originally turbid river water, like boiling mud, surged upward wildly, the bones at the riverbed all floating, bowing in unison toward the Tu Soil Divine Eye.
The Xuanhuang Qihua beneath the earth surged upward, transforming into a thousand-zhang gray-yellow dragon tornado, howling around the Divine Eye.
The filthy aura in the air grew thick enough to become substantial, like viscous mud, constantly squeezing and interfering with everyone's Dharma Aspect Spiritual Light.
Even space began to twist, emitting creaking sounds of unbearable weight.
Pressure climbed wildly, as if the entire heaven and earth now pressed upon everyone.
Xu Zhangqing and the others' Dharma Aspects were constantly compressed, Spiritual Light dimmed, even their forms could not remain stable.
In the Tu Soil Divine Eye's pupils, those Rolling Earth Dragons twisted wildly; decay and deathly silence swept in all directions, as if to devour all vitality.
Immediately after, a dazzling gray-yellow Divine Light lit up at the center of the Divine Eye!
This pillar of light pierced the void, carrying the baleful aura of Ten Thousand Calamities Tu Soil, the pressure of Earth Vein collapse, and the wails of countless remnant souls.
Wherever it passed, Yin River water evaporated, bones turned to flying ash, space shattered layer by layer; the terrifying might nearly made everyone's souls scatter.
"It's coming!"
"Defend with all strength!"
"Main Body, be careful!"
Tai Bai, Zhu Rong, Fenglong, and Nü Tu roared in unison, all four Dharma Aspects exploding forth.
The White Tiger Star roared.
The River of Civilization flowed.
The Eighteen-Layer Earth Veins manifested.
The Thunder Robe evolved the myriad worlds of the heavens.
The Twenty-Four Light Wheels spun wildly.
Everyone condensed a defensive barrier spanning the Yin River.
But just as the Divine Light was about to touch the defensive barrier, a strange scene occurred.
That terrifying Divine Light suddenly turned, not striking the barrier, but like a gentle light curtain, directly enveloping Xu Zhangqing.
No agony, no destruction.
Only a gentle yet irresistible power wrapped his Flesh Body and Divine Soul.
Whoosh~
With a soft sound, Xu Zhangqing, along with his Dharma Aspect, was drawn into the Wu Tu Shen Mu by this divine light.
Above the Yin River, only Tai Bai, Zhu Rong, Nü Tu, Fenglong, and the four avatars remained, as well as the two puppets Xu Jiuyou and Xu Zixiao.
Dead silence.
Utter dead silence.
Everyone froze in place.
Their minds went blank, and for a moment they couldn't react.
Until the next second, their faces changed drastically and they all panicked.
"Greeting Main Body!"
"Was the Main Body sucked into that eye?"
Zhu Rong lost control first, crimson flames shooting to the sky: "I'll fight you to the death!"
"Zhu Rong, calm down!"
Tai Bai grabbed him, Star Sword Intent tightly locking onto him: "If you charge up now, not only will you fail to save the Main Body, you'll just be throwing your life away!"
Nü Tu's expression was solemn: "Inside the Wu Tu Shen Mu is the core of the most evil Root God, filled with resentment and the power of Tu Soil."
"No matter how strong the Main Body's flesh body is or how stable his divine soul, he can't hold out for long!"
Fenglong said with a grim face: "The Main Body has fallen into His hands, I'm afraid..."
The reason they panicked was because Xu Zhangqing's flesh body was the Main Body.
Even though after the spiritual root dies, it can revive in half a year.
But no one could guarantee that the one revived after being killed by the Impure Earth God would still be the original Xu Zhangqing?
If tampered with and assimilated by the Impure Earth God, even if he returned, he would no longer be their Main Body, but a puppet of the Impure Earth God.
Zhu Rong's eyes were red, staring tightly at the huge Wu Tu Shen Mu, not daring to easily step forward, trapped in anxiety and helplessness: "What do we do now?"
Just as everyone was at a loss, Xu Jiuyou suddenly raised his head.
His originally hollow eyes lit up with a spiritual light of intertwined green-black-white three colors.
Immediately after, Xu Jiuyou's lips opened and closed, a familiar voice echoing through the entire Yin River: "Everyone, don't panic, I'm fine!"
