Chapter 179: Space Crack

Once the Zhu Que appeared, the fire spiritual energy in Tang Valley boiled.

Red fire spiritual energy steamed up from the ground and gathered straight toward the Zhu Que spirit shadow.

The Zhu Que spirit shadow that had just flown out of Hua Changxi's body was not very large, but as more and more fire spiritual energy gathered, the Zhu Que spirit shadow grew larger and larger.

The Zhu Que spirit shadow hung high above Hua Changxi's head. As the Zhu Que spirit shadow grew larger, the pressure it emitted also grew larger, and the pressure acting on Hua Changxi also grew larger and larger.

The Zhu Que spirit shadow could essentially be said to be the totem divine ability she released externally. The power of the divine ability was determined by her strength at the moment, but the Zhu Que spirit shadow that wantonly absorbed the fire spiritual energy in Tang Valley clearly exceeded what Hua Changxi could withstand at this moment.

The Floating Light Sword lingered by the Great Sun Divine Flame also felt the threat from the Zhu Que spirit shadow and struck straight toward the Zhu Que spirit shadow.

Hua Changxi still had a connection with the Floating Light Sword, and at the first moment, she sensed that the Floating Light Sword was about to launch an attack. She was both terrified and anxious, but the Zhu Que spirit shadow was released externally by her, and she couldn't avoid it, so she could only carry it hard.

Seeing Baili Changfeng's master and disciples, Hua Changxi quickly waved her spiritual power, knocking the three away and away from the battlefield.

Whether it was the Great Sun Divine Flame or the Zhu Que flame, both carried the power to destroy the world. When the two met, the destructive power could be imagined. Hua Changxi didn't want to die, so relying on the connection with the Zhu Que spirit shadow and the Floating Light Sword, she used all her strength to control both, wanting to minimize the impact brought by the two as much as possible.

The Floating Light Sword flew out. The two Demon Clan attendants who were close to the Floating Light Sword and didn't dodge in time were directly seriously injured, falling to the ground with their breath dying. If it weren't for their Golden Crow bloodline, they might have died.

And the Demon Clan attendant who attacked Hua Changxi's four people, because he was seriously injured by the Zhu Que spirit shadow, when the Floating Light Sword struck, he was unable to resist the Great Sun Divine Flame and was directly evaporated and melted into gas.

"Bang—"

No matter how hard Hua Changxi tried, the Floating Light Sword still stabbed toward the Zhu Que spirit shadow. When the two met, the impact force directly caused the air to distort and deform.

"Boom—"

Sensing that the air was becoming unstable, Hua Changxi sensed danger and immediately condensed a fire lotus to protect herself. The fire lotus's lotus domain divine ability had a defensive function.

"Heaven, what is that?"

Baili's master and disciples, who were thrown to the mountainside by Hua Changxi, were all full of shock as they looked at the bottom of the valley.

Tang Valley, permeated with fire spiritual energy, was red as far as the eye could see, but at this moment, countless black, narrow cracks appeared in the air.

Baili Changfeng's expression was grave: "It's a space crack. The Great Sun Divine Flame and Zhu Que are resisting each other, the space cannot withstand it, leading to space tearing."

Xia Xue exclaimed: "The space crack has come out, so isn't Senior Hua in danger?"

Baili Changfeng remained silent, clearly acquiescing.

A Nascent Soul cultivator, even if practicing both law and body, could not withstand the cutting of a space crack.

At the same time, Hua Changxi also looked at the black cracks with a horrified expression, especially when she saw the two Demon Clan attendants who were almost burned to death by the Great Sun Divine Flame being cut and swallowed by the black cracks, the fear in her heart reached its peak. She hurriedly looked at the Floating Light Sword and Zhu Que spirit shadow that were still resisting with all their strength.

The Zhu Que spirit shadow covered the sky and the sun, occupying a high position, like a huge red fireball; while the Floating Light Sword lingered with the Great Sun Divine Flame, like a white fireball, because its volume was much smaller, although it was in a state of being suppressed, it was still resisting the Zhu Que spirit shadow to the death.

The Zhu Que spirit shadow was released externally passively because she encountered danger. With her current strength, she couldn't control the totem divine ability.

The Floating Light Sword also had its power surge because it absorbed different fire, and she couldn't control it either.

Facing the resistance of the two, Hua Changxi felt two forces tearing at her in her body.

The external space cracks were getting more and more, closer and closer; internally, she was torn in opposite directions by two forces. Hua Changxi could be said to be troubled internally and externally at this moment.

"Master, look, is the red branch in the black crack the branch of the Fusang Divine Tree?"

As there were more and more space cracks, slowly, some relatively large space cracks had red branches flashing by. Seeing this, Xia Xue immediately asked Baili Changfeng excitedly.

Baili Changfeng saw it, and his pupils shook: "Yes, it is the Fusang Divine Tree."

The Great Sun Divine Flame and Zhu Que totem collided, actually splitting the folded interface space.

At first, the master and his three disciples could only occasionally see some Fusang Divine Tree branches, but as time passed, they saw more and more Divine Tree branches. In the end, they even saw the main trunk of the Divine Tree.

Just when the main trunk of the Divine Tree was revealed in the space crack, both the human world and Jiuyou erupted with anomalies.

The artifact workshop in the southeast direction of the capital suddenly gushed out a large amount of fire spiritual energy. The fire spiritual energy spread rapidly, covering the southeast area of the capital at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"What happened?"

"What are these red mists?"

Facing the fire spiritual energy that suddenly permeated the air, the common people around who knew little about the recovery of spiritual energy were very terrified, but the cultivators and families who had already stepped on the path of cultivation had eyes full of joy and excitement.

"Spiritual energy is surging, there must be ruins about to appear. Quick, notify the family cultivators to come over immediately."

Various forces acted one after another, in a posture of sharpening their knives to seize resources.

More and more fire spiritual energy surged, steaming up, and gathered into large fire clouds in the sky.

After the fire clouds appeared, an even more fantastic scene appeared.

Branches that were completely fire-red flashed in the air. At first, only a small amount of branches could be seen, but as time passed, there were more and more branches. In the end, a towering giant tree that was completely fire-red, appearing and disappearing, appeared in the air.

"Heaven, what is that?"

The phantom of the Fusang Divine Tree appeared, directly illuminating the entire capital. In an instant, countless spiritual lights flew from all directions of the capital, flying straight toward the artifact workshop where the fire spiritual energy was most concentrated.

In the Medical Department, Gu Jinfan was asking the Gu family cultivator about the situation of Young Master Gu going to the Qianmen Pass in Jiuyou. When she saw the Fusang Divine Tree in the air, she was completely stunned.

"The Fusang Divine Tree has appeared?"

Gu Jinfan's face was full of disbelief: "No, the Fusang Divine Tree shouldn't have appeared so early." Saying that, she closed her eyes to calm down, opened them again to look in the southeast direction, and found that the Fusang Divine Tree was still there.

"What happened in Tang Valley?"

In her previous life, at this time, the array eye where the Artifact Saint Palace was located leaked demonic energy, causing many people in the capital to be demonized, countless people to die, and almost letting the Artifact Saint Palace fall into the hands of the Demon Clan, so she had the Duke of Xin's Prefecture deploy in Qianmen Fort in advance to prevent the Demon Clan from occupying Qianmen Fort.

In this life, demonic energy didn't leak, but the Fusang Divine Tree appeared in the human world and Jiuyou in advance!

Generally speaking, only when the sacred site is completely activated will the Divine Tree appear. Now, the Artifact Saint Palace hasn't even had a shadow yet.

Gu Jinfan was completely confused, but she knew that the sudden appearance of the Fusang Divine Tree must be because something happened at Qianmen Fort. Without hesitation, she took out the Jiuyou token and went down to Jiuyou directly.

At the same time, all the streets in the southeast area of the capital were blocked by people from the Eastern Depot and the Embroidered Uniform Guard, while the Heaven Department Demon-Suppressing Army surrounded the artifact workshop.

In mid-air, Wei Zhenjie, the Minister of the Heaven Department, looked at the Fusang Divine Tree appearing and disappearing in the air with his brows tightly locked: "It shouldn't be."

Chu Junyi stood beside him. Hearing his muttering, he couldn't help but say: "Master, what shouldn't be?"

Wei Zhenjie: "The Artifact Saint Palace doesn't even have a shadow yet, the Fusang Divine Tree shouldn't have appeared." Saying that, he quickly looked at Chu Junyi, "Something must have happened at the center of the array eye. I have to sit in the capital to suppress those powerful families who are eager to try. You can only make a trip to Qianmen Pass, take a team of Demon-Suppressing Army deep into the center of the array eye, and explore what happened there."

Chu Junyi nodded, gathered a team of Demon-Suppressing Army, and left quickly.

Some veteran cultivation families also guessed that something happened at the center of the array eye, and also sent cultivators down to Jiuyou to investigate the situation.

The sudden appearance of the Fusang Divine Tree not only shocked all parties in the capital, but Jiuyou was also the same.

Jiuyou is the realm of the netherworld. The Fusang Divine Tree is like a huge torch that suddenly ignited, causing even greater shock in Jiuyou than in the human world.

Outside the stone-carved soldiers, Liu Chengxiong and Young Master Gu were both stunned when they saw the fire-red giant tree appearing above the volcanic crater.

Young Master Gu had been popularized about the situation of Tang Valley by Gu Jinfan, and guessed that the giant tree might be the Fusang Divine Tree, but still asked Liu Chengxiong to confirm: "General Liu, is that the Divine Tree of the Artifact Saint Palace, the Fusang Divine Tree?"

Liu Chengxiong swallowed his saliva and nodded: "Yes, it is the Fusang Divine Tree." Then, a look of doubt appeared on his face, "How could the Fusang Divine Tree appear so easily?"

Young Master Gu also looked confused: "Yes, the Artifact Saint Palace hasn't had any movement yet, not even as good as the Medical Department. The Medical Department at least lit a street of alchemy fire. Reasonably speaking, the Fusang Divine Tree shouldn't have appeared at this time."

Liu Chengxiong thought of something, and looked at the volcanic crater with a grave expression: "It must be that those who entered Tang Valley did something to cause the Divine Tree to appear."

Hearing this, Young Master Gu's expression also became serious.

Besides Qianmen Pass, the other eight passes guarding the array eyes also saw the fire-red Fusang Divine Tree. Even the other Jiuyou territories outside the nine passes saw the red light filling the sky above the Demon Prison.

"It's the Fusang Divine Tree!"

"How could the Fusang Divine Tree appear so quickly?"

"The Divine Tree appears, the array eye is more stable. In this way, how can my Demon Clan turn over?"

"Come here, immediately send people to Qianmen Pass to explore what happened."

Just when all parties were rushing to Qianmen Pass, in Tang Valley, Hua Changxi encountered the biggest crisis since she started cultivating.

At this moment, space cracks were already lingering around the fire lotus. Although the lotus petals of the fire lotus could resist the space cracks for a while, they couldn't support it for too long. The outermost lotus petals of the fire lotus were being cut and swallowed by the space cracks.

Not only that, as the threat of death approached, coupled with the catalysis and amplification of emotions by the black flame, she could no longer suppress the fear in her heart, which in turn caused the black flame to burn more vigorously.

By now, the black flame was about to drown the entire body of the Nascent Soul.

Hua Changxi felt that the black flame was like a bottomless black hole, swallowing her bit by bit. By the time she was completely swallowed, there would be no more of her in this world.

The external threat of death was approaching, and the internal abyss black hole was also approaching. With no way to retreat, Hua Changxi became calm instead.

Looking at the Floating Light Sword and Zhu Que spirit shadow that were still resisting and

The Zhu Que spiritual shadow has no power to harm her; what she must resolve now is the Floating Light Sword. As long as she can control the Floating Light Sword, she can end the confrontation between the Floating Light Sword and the Zhu Que spiritual shadow.

To control the Floating Light Sword, she must master the Great Sun Divine Flame!

Hua Changxi looked toward the spatial rift nearest to her, watching the fire-red branches dancing incessantly within the rift.

The moment she saw the fire-red branches, she guessed that this was the Fusang Divine Tree. As long as she obtained the Fusang Divine Tree, she would no longer fear her body being unable to withstand the Great Sun Divine Flame.

With no other options, Hua Changxi quickly submerged her consciousness into her dantian and decisively began to fuse the seven wisps of strange fire in her Qi sea, just as the Floating Light Sword had fused with the seven-colored strange fire before.

At this moment, she was gambling.

She was gambling that the Mount Wuzhi mountain seal could help her resist the Great Sun Divine Flame for a while. As long as she successfully fused and generated the Great Sun Divine Flame, she should be able to control the Floating Light Sword. Once she obtained the Floating Light Sword, she could charge into the spatial rift, chop off a section of the Fusang Divine Tree branch, and then quickly dash back out.

This was the plan she had conceived; theoretically, it was feasible, but every step was a gamble.

From the words of the mountain spirit and what she had seen at the Xiangguo Temple, she knew that this world possessed merit and fortune. She was gambling that the merit and fortune on her body could help her survive this mortal tribulation!
