Chapter 92: Earth Spirit
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lin Xuan stood beside the rippling water and lowered his head to look at his reflection in the water.
The water was very clear, but it did not look drinkable. Or rather, it was not suitable for humans to drink. Naturally, the Demonic Trees used it for themselves.
The thought of destroying this place suddenly appeared in Lin Xuan’s mind, but he imdiately reacted badly to it. He was not a destructive maniac. Regardless of whether this poisonous oasis was destroyed or not, it had nothing to do with Lin Xuan’s interests.
Following his thoughts, he traced back bit by bit. In the end, Lin Xuan was sure that there was an inexplicable call that made him have the urge to destroy the terrain here.
The corners of his mouth curled into a thought-provoking smile. He was a very brave person. He actually dared to use ntal and spiritual thods to plot against him.
He stomped his right foot on the ground. This was the full strength of a dragon-armored elephant that was blessed with many great powers. The shallow pool of poisonous water turned the world upside down in an instant. It was extrely turbulent. A crack appeared at the bottom of the pool and thus revealed sothing underground.
After a long while, there was no movent. However, Lin Xuan was not disappointed because it seed like sothing was about to co out from underground!
It should be dusk in this dungeon space now. The sun that shone brightly during the day was now setting. The temperature began to drop rapidly, and a faint bright moon was slowly rising.
The sky had already darkened, and so azure light scattered through the crevice, becoming denser.
Suddenly, a strong suction force ca from the crevice. If it was just an ordinary yellow-rank ability user, they would definitely not be able to resist this suction force. However, Lin Xuan was different. As his strength and physique strengthened, he fought back!
This suction force felt like light tickles to Lin Xuan!
Lin Xuan frowned and wondered what was happening. After taking a few steps forward, there was an azure-colored gemstone floating in the crevice. Through his perception, the suction force was transmitted from the azure-colored gemstone.
A rare treasure? Or was an inherent part of the dungeon?
Now that he had fully recovered his strength, there was nothing to be afraid of in a yellow-tier dungeon!
Taking a step forward, he stepped on the azure gemstone floating in mid-air. Imdiately, the azure gemstone sank.
With a flash, Lin Xuan disappeared from where he was. anwhile, the azure gemstone rapidly sank and disappeared. It was also at this mont, in an extrely far place within the dungeon space, that a boundless tri-colored forest woke up from its slumber.
The heart of the Earth realm has awakened!
The entire huge tri-colored forest began to move, countless tri-colored vines shot out in all directions. Although it was a soft sandy land, they were still able to firmly grasp it. Then, they moved the entire tri-colored forest forward bit by bit.
Every ti they moved a little, the entire land would shake.
It tried to transform into sothing, but it was so big that it took a lot of ti. At first, it rged to form tiny hills, then, it beca huge mountains. Although four limbs managed to grow, it still had a long way to go.
Of course, Lin Xuan did not know about this. Even if he knew, he would probably jump up in joy. The boss had co knocking on his door, and that ant he was closer to going ho!
After one touch of the gemstone, the world had changed!
From a barren sandy land, his environnt changed to one with a gurgling stream and greenery. The water did not stop flowing. There were fruit trees all around them. Flowers grew everywhere on the ground. Insects and birds chirped. Although this place was full of vitality, no one was seen here. There were no other intelligent creatures either. However, a clear and bright sound of a zither ca from afar. Lin Xuan pushed aside the lush green branches and walked in the direction where the sound of the zither ca from.
From afar, he could see the tip of a pavilion in the distance. When he got closer, it was indeed what it was! In the middle of it, there was a figure with his back facing him. He was playing the zither and did not stop for a long, long ti.
After he finished playing, the figure stopped, as if he was waiting for sothing!
“Who are you? Why are you looking for ?”
Although Lin Xuan could not help but praise the beautiful sound of the zither, it was a little hypocritical to sit still and wait for praise after playing it. Lin Xuan was not used to it!
It seed that this figure was not a living person!
With an awkward smile on his face, the figure turned around. “I am the spirit of this place. Greetings, hero!”
He was a cultured person, and it was obvious that he was not a good person.
“Why are you looking for ?”
“Since you’re being so straightforward, then I will not hide it anymore. The thing is…”
This was a very long story. Lin Xuan listened to it briefly and then summarized it himself.
A certain year, a certain month, and a certain day, a pitch-black crevice appeared in a certain land. Seeds flew out from the crevice. That year, their foolish emperor treated these seeds as immortal dicine seeds. He wanted to live forever, but in the end, it backfired. The entire imperial capital fell.
Later on, the entire land was filled with Demonic Trees. Countless people died of hunger. In the end… That was all Lin Xuan gathered from what the figure shared.
Before the land was taken over, there was a scholar. They almost had a beautiful future. Followed by the sand transformation disaster that swept the world, everything changed for them. They hid and lived for a long ti, but in the end, they could not defeat fate. They starved to death in the cellar.
When they regained consciousness, they beca the spirit of the heart in the Earth realm.
“The world outside is the Earth realm. When I woke up, I saw many mountains and greenery. However, the good tis didn’t last long. One day, I encountered so Demonic Trees. That thing has extrely strong vitality and reproduces extrely fast. I once organized the creatures from the outside world to destroy it in one go, but unfortunately, we failed!
“In order to prevent the Demonic Trees from obtaining the heart of the Earth realm and completely engulfing a region to achieve the final sublimation. I concealed my aura and hid here, day after day, year after year.
“I’s been so lonely here, I can’t…. I can’t stand it anymore!”
The land spirit seed to recall the lonely years it had spent all these years. A world that was full of vitality once. There was neither joy nor sorrow, neither joy nor bitterness. Only calmness and tranquility. This place was a fortress, and also a prison.
“Can you replace as the land spirit and conceal the heart of the land spirit? Please, I can’t hold on for so long anymore!”
As he spoke, the spirit began to dissipate. “Don’t let the sand-lting demonic plant find you. Hide well!”
In fact, it had died long ago. It had died in the loneliness of day after day. The only thing left was the obsession to conceal its identity.
