Chapter 453 Reshaping
Chapter 453 Reshaping
At the crater, a spear swept across as Lei Xiu attempted to split the lava with his own strength. Snow and Si Xu initially thought he was being delusional, but when they saw that even with his arm burned black, he still didn't back down an inch.
In the end, they actually stopped the lava's advance and even launched a counterattack.
They had never seen anything like it before, and exchanged a complicated glance.
"Lei Xiu, let me help you..."
"And I."
The Kunling Clan is not skilled in aerial combat; they are guardians of the earth, and can only exert their advantage by staying close to the land. Therefore, Snow and Si Xu did not rush forward rashly, as that would only hinder Lei Xiu.
The two of them simultaneously braced themselves with their palms on the ground, mobilizing their innate power in an attempt to communicate with the earth.
If the earth is usually a gentle elder, then the crater is a fiery, unruly child, full of energy and unreasonable. The surge of energy made the two of them ache all over, and cold sweat instantly broke out on their foreheads.
Humans cannot fight against nature, but they did not give up and continued to supply energy, even if it only allowed the crater to calm down for a moment, at least to buy some time for Lei Xiu and Le Zhi.
Although they knew perfectly well that being swallowed by lava meant there was no chance of survival.
But Lei Xiu hasn't given up yet, and they can't give up either.
At the foot of Jinyan Peak, the guards who were ordered to stay here could vaguely see what was happening in the crater. They could not get close, but they could still help.
So, one by one, all the Kunling people present lowered their bodies, put their hands on the ground, and gave some help to their people in the crater.
Si Yi, who was far away in the tribe's territory, received the news from his teammates. He was unaware that Le Zhi had actually been swallowed by lava. Without hesitation, he quickly spread the news throughout the entire tribe.
Knowing that a member of their clansmen was in danger, without much hesitation, everyone chose to contribute their modest efforts.
With the help of the entire Kunling Clan, the raging lava seemed to have been temporarily quelled, finally willing to quiet down for a while. Taking advantage of this moment, Lei Xiu continued his attack, swinging his spear even more frequently, determined to cleave the lava in two.
He knew, of course, that even the tree spirits, when swallowed by lava, would inevitably be reduced to dust.
But Zhizhi is different.
They've been through so much together, how could Lezhi be so easily defeated by lava?
For some reason, Lei Xiu firmly believed that Lezhi still existed and was inside the lava. What he had to do was help Lezhi break free from her shackles. As long as the lava was broken, Lezhi would definitely be able to appear.
The belief in his heart grew stronger, and the eyes on the wings on his back were almost complete. With slightly upturned corners and streamlined eye sockets, they were a pair of very beautiful eyes.
Too much beauty becomes eerie, causing one's soul to tremble at a single glance.
However, no one paid special attention to these eyes at the moment, and their focus was not on any living person. Their target, like its owner, was the lava in front of them.
Cola was bound to the spot by Lei Xiu's lightning, becoming the most idle person present and the first to see the entire process of the eye's formation clearly from beginning to end.
The birds, which had been restless and trying to struggle, fell silent, their trembling bodies caused not only by the lightning binding them, but also by a deep-seated fear.
Even as Lei Xiu's contracted partner, it couldn't look directly into those eyes.
Just a second before the fur ball's riddled body was about to plunge completely into the lava, it was caught by a pair of hands.
A second before its consciousness faded, a familiar touch swept across its bald head.
Was it an illusion? That was its last thought.
Darkness descends.
The remaining parts of the large bird's body were completely annihilated, turning to ashes in those hands.
The owner of those hands used them as a pivot, shaping his body inch by inch, until it solidified into a human form.
A tear fell from her eye and landed right in the ashes in her palm.
The body, which had just begun to take shape, was not yet stable. Green light and black and red light intertwined between its brows, with green light sometimes dominating and black and red light sometimes obscuring the body.
His form thus flickered between light and shadow, sometimes solid and sometimes loose.
Suddenly, the cross-shaped halberd, which had disappeared without a trace after the previous body was annihilated, reappeared, flashing with blue light.
The blue crystal halberd transformed into a clump of liquid, absorbing various colors of light from the surrounding lava: brownish-yellow representing the earth, emerald green representing life, gunmetal gray representing the swirling wind, and fiery red representing flames—all merging into the blue clump of light and becoming one.
The forces merged and then crashed directly into the still-forming body.
With the addition of external forces, the green light and black-red color within his body were able to re-merge, and his loose body gradually solidified.
Throughout the entire process, Lezhi remained motionless until, just before his body was fully formed, he finally moved.
The purpose of making this move was to extract primordial energy and inject it into the ashes in his hand.
One second, two seconds...
Ashes were still ashes, but Lezhi did not give up. When he felt a faint fluctuation in his palm, his eyes suddenly lit up, and his whole body suddenly burst with vitality, as if a soul had been injected into the empty shell.
Her parched lips parted slightly, but she dared not utter a sound, for fear of startling the little elf who had just been resurrected.
The ripple he had carefully nurtured in the ashes was not as fragile as he had imagined. It gradually took shape from a point of light, first wings, then a round head, and finally sharp claws. In the blink of an eye, the little furball was reborn from the ashes.
Its pointed beak opened, revealing its pink and tender little tongue, "Chirp chirp~" Lezhi!
The familiar calls and energy fluctuations instantly brought tears to my eyes.
"Hairball……"
Tears fell again, and as the furball chirped merrily, Lezhi's body was fully formed.
Can it still transform?
"Tweet~"
"Okay, let's go out then."
"Chirp chirp~ Hey~"
The energy in his body was mottled and complex at the moment, but it was not a big problem for Lezhi. He was not unaware when his body was being reshaped. His new body was like a furnace, and no matter how complex the energy was, it would be sorted out and melted into his own.
This is also why he can bring the fur ball back to life. Although he doesn't know the principle, his instinct tells him that he can do it, so he does it.
Furthermore, after his rebirth, the surrounding lava was no longer a threat to him. What had once easily annihilated his body was now nothing more than an ordinary toy in his hands.
"Hmm, what is that?" Having rescued the furball and rebuilt his body, Lezhi finally relaxed his attention and keenly sensed that they seemed to be locked onto by the unknown. "Interesting..."
Impatient with this aimless searching, he grabbed the cross halberd in his right hand, and it instantly appeared in his hand, now transformed. The halberd was shimmering with light and was no longer just a single shade of azure blue; the decorative patterns had also become much more intricate.
The trident has been upgraded not only in appearance but also in function. Originally named Wavebreaker, meaning it could cut through giant waves, it can now cleave through lava with a flick of its wrist.
As Lezhi swung his halberd, Lei Xiu in the crater simultaneously swung his spear. The eyes on his wings helped him accurately pinpoint Lezhi's location, and the force of his spear swing was also amplified.
With a whoosh, the sound of something cutting through the air resounded through the sky, startling everyone present into looking up at the same time.
They realized this attack was different from others.
Sure enough, the purple lightning cleaved through the fiery lava with unstoppable force, as if it could break through all obstacles.
This strike seemed to cleave the entire Golden Rock Peak in two.
Snow was shaken and was about to pull Si Xu away when his terrified scream was choked by what he saw next, "Run... ah?"
The purple lightning bolts were unstoppable, and the fiery red lava was no match for them, being cleaved into pieces. The remaining attack was supposed to land on Golden Rock Peak, but it was intercepted halfway. What intercepted the purple light was a white light that was even more dazzling than it, appearing for a moment and being more dazzling than the sun in the sky.
Those present could not look directly at it and could only turn their backs and close their eyes to avoid being hurt.
Lei Xiu was the first to be hit, but he did not dodge. His eyes were pierced by the direct white light, and tears streamed down his face, but he still refused to close them.
I'm afraid that if I close my eyes and open them again, everything before me will vanish, and it will all be just an illusion...
