Chapter 1658 The Essence of Earth

chapter 1658 the essence of earth

translator: borntobe

there was a golden triangular object about thirty meters long. it looked like a dark gold piece of iron, and shocking fluctuations were coming from it.

it was what had broken di long’s hand and the spatial formation, forcing him away. this strange object was floating in the air, waves of divine pressure coming from it. it was like the world was trembling because of its existence.

“the world’s innate elemental structure is based on earth, water, fire, and air, with earth coming first. it is the first element used to stabilize the world. it should be the core of the jade lake sacred land,” said chu yao.

“none of us are earth elemental cultivators. we probably won’t be able to take it,” said tang wan-er.

the current tang wan-er had absorbed the wind essence. although she hadn’t fully refined it yet, she had comprehended the essence of it. that was the comprehension the jade lake venerate had had toward wind energy. it had greatly benefited tang wan-er. her inheritance was something countless people would go crazy for.

otherwise, tang wan-er wouldn’t have been able to use wind energy in that crisis just now to escape the lock of the huge hand and bring everyone away.

“i might be able to try it with the daynight furnace.” the pill fairy walked forward. she sent the daynight furnace floating over to the object.

however, when the daynight furnace was a few miles away, it suddenly fell out of the sky and crashed into the ground.

“what?” long chen and the others were shocked. it was like an invisible hand was pressing the daynight furnace into the ground.

“this earth essence has a terrifying gravitational field around it. my power is too low to get the daynight furnace close to it,” said the pill fairy.

“gravitational field?”

they were shocked. this strange object actually possessed such a terrifying gravitational field that not even the pill fairy’s daynight furnace could approach it?

“yes, it’s too powerful. i can’t sense any resistance or malice coming from it, but i still can’t get close,” said the pill fairy.

chu yao nodded. “that proves it has to be the core of the jade lake sacred land, the essence of earth. it’s the earth inheritance of the jade lake venerate. based on what she left behind, the person to receive her inheritance must have an affinity with it. there’s no way for someone to snatch it through power. that person has to have the right elemental runes with it, but we...”

chu yao’s meaning was clear. they had no earth elemental expert here and could not connect to this earth essence. even if there was an earth cultivator here, it would have to be someone with high enough talent to receive it.

“i’ll try it.” liu ruyan refused to accept it like this. in her undying willow true body, she sent out countless branches at the earth essence.

those branches exploded while they were still a long way from the earth essence. she raged, “how can this be?! earth births wood! there’s no clash between our elements, but it won’t even let me get close!”

the earth essence fundamentally wasn’t supposed to be taken like this. taking away this earth essence was equivalent to forcibly taking away the core of this world. it was a destructive power.

as the earth essence approached, meng qi and the others turned a bit pale. the energy exhaustion of long chen’s five star battle armor was absolutely terrifying. their spiritual yuan was running out.

“everyone, endure it! just a bit more!” seeing the earth essence coming over more and more, long chen shouted out. he was covered in sweat, his arms trembling from the exertion. however, he still persevered. when the earth essence was just three hundred meters away from him, he smiled.

suddenly, a black hole appeared in the sky. long chen roared, pulling the earth essence toward that black hole.

when the black hole devoured the earth essence, long chen felt like the world was spinning around him. he fell down.

meng qi and the others were also exhausted. long chen had sucked their spiritual yuan dry.

however, coincidentally, the direction long chen fell was toward the pill fairy’s embrace.

the pill fairy immediately reddened and tried to push long chen toward tang wan-er. however, she was too exhausted. she could barely lift a finger.

for a moment, the atmosphere was very awkward. the pill fairy was completely red, not daring to make a sound. she could only allow long chen to rest in her embrace.

a feeling she had never felt before filled her heart. she felt her body softening and her heartbeat quickened. her face was as red as an apple. long chen’s head was resting on her chest. that position was too awkward.

she did her best to control her breathing and heartbeat, but with her spiritual yuan and physical energy exhausted, she couldn’t move. worst of all, long chen’s ear was against her chest. he could clearly hear her heartbeat. her face was so red it looked like it was about to drip blood.

“big sister, why is your face so red? are you injured?” asked cloud worriedly.

“i... i... it’s nothing. i’m just tired. long chen, can you roll over? you’re crushing me,” said the pill fairy.

“sorry.” long chen did his best to lift himself from the pill fairy’s embrace. however, he had used up too much energy, and his arms only got him halfway before he fell back down in her embrace.

the pill fairy let out a startled cry. meng qi and the others had a faint smile as they looked at long chen dubiously.

“i swear i didn’t do it on purpose.” even long chen blushed slightly at their staring and hastily testified to his innocence.

in the end, it was cloud who was the most innocent. as a xuan beast, she recovered her physical energy quickly and pulled him up, relieving the pill fairy of her awkward position.

the pill fairy eventually recovered enough to sit up. they all began to rapidly recover their energy.
