The dark source power continued to gush out, and soon the wisps of mist turned into a substantial tide.
Looking down from above the sinkhole, it was like a huge black fountain, rising against the sky.
The water-like black yuan qi condensed and did not disperse, like a huge pillar connecting heaven and earth. Inside the water column, it was twisting and rotating.
There was no sound, just the endless power of the source power. Everyone outside the sinkhole shuddered, and they couldn't help but want to bow down and worship.
Yuan Mingxiu had thought that she was not afraid of anything, but these two days she realized that she was just ignorant before, not really fearless.
Yu Qingwei represented the extreme power of an individual, controlling the life and death of all living beings. The change of the source power in front of her was the manifestation of the power of heaven and earth.
Even someone as strong as Yu Qingwei was not worth mentioning under the vast and endless power of the source power of heaven and earth.
However, Yu Qingwei dared to face the power of heaven and earth. Such courage made Yuan Mingxiu feel ashamed. She was a little unconvinced at first, thinking that there would be a chance to catch up with Yu Qingwei and avenge the humiliation of that day.
Today she suddenly realized that the gap between the two was not only in power, but also in willpower.
Yuan Mingxiu wanted to find a chance to do something, but now she had no idea.
She looked at Xuan Ming. This ugly old man had no malice on his face, and his mung bean-sized eyes were rolling around. No one knew what he was thinking. He must be scared!
Xuan Ming was really scared. The higher one's cultivation, the more he understood the horror of the eruption of the source power of heaven and earth. He wanted to take the opportunity to retaliate against Gao Zhengyang and Yu Qingwei, but now he had no intention of doing so.
The power of the world's source power was too strong, far beyond Xuan Ming's expectations. What surprised him even more was that the change of the world's source power did not open a void crack. He could not sense the location of the human world.
This time, the dark source power exploded, and all the power melted into heaven and earth. In the next tens of thousands of years, the dark source power would constantly change the nature of the world.
Eventually, all living beings would be eroded and transformed by the dark source power.
Xuan Ming didn't care what the world would become, he just wanted to return to the human world. But the eruption of the dark source power not only did not open a space passage to the human world, but also disturbed the void.
If this continued, he could only wait for the world's source power to completely stabilize and establish a new yuan qi order. Only then could he find the way back.
Xuan Ming didn't want to stay in the wasteland for thousands of years. What's more, after being corroded by the World's Origin, he might not live for more than a few thousand years.
In just a few minutes, Xuan Ming had changed his mind. He didn't want to take revenge on Gao Zhengyang anymore.
Gao Zhengyang and the others were definitely going to take this opportunity to absorb enough Origin Energy to break through the void and leave. Xuan Ming didn't know where Gao Zhengyang got the confidence to return to the human world, but since he dared to do so, he would definitely go back.
Xuan Ming contemplated for a long time. Eventually, he made up his mind. He stomped his feet and got into the center of the Dark Power Upanishad.
Against the surging Origin Energy, Xuan Ming continued to sink. Under the scouring of the World Origin Energy, his body was coated with a thick layer of ink. Fortunately, he was born with a sturdy tortoiseshell, and the secret technique he cultivated was the most profound and reserved one.
Although the corrosion of the Darkness Origin Energy was strong, it would not be able to penetrate his defenses for a while.
After diving for a long time following the raging tides of darkness origin power, Xuan Ming finally saw Yu Qingwei and Ao Fengyuan in the center of the formation.
After Xuan Ming entered the wasteland world, he hid himself. But the news of the outside world could not be hidden from him.
Yu Qingwei participated in the trading convention alone with a spear and almost slaughtered all the powerhouses in the Northern Peace City. Of course, he knew about such a big event. Moreover, he also understood that even if Yu Qingwei had such strength, he would not be able to do such a thing.
After Xuan Ming saw Yu Qingwei, he found that the other party's eyes were as deep as the abyss and knew that the one in control of the body was Gao Zhengyang. He sincerely bowed and cupped his fists: "Lord Gao, this old man is convinced."
Gao Zhengyang was a little surprised. He had thought that Xuan Ming was here to cause trouble. Since when did this old man become so smart!?
He originally wanted to kill Xuan Ming with one shot, but since the old man was so tactful, he would let him live.
Gao Zhengyang suffered a big loss in the wasteland world and was quite unhappy. But this matter had nothing to do with Xuan Ming and Ao Fengyuan.
Killing them was as easy as flipping one's hand. Only by using them would one be able to see their ability.
"A wise man submits to circumstances."
Gao Zhengyang said indifferently: "You and Ao Fengyuan just wait on the side."
Xuan Ming was delighted. Gao Zhengyang was a tyrannical and tough person. He would not surrender just because he wanted to. If he could be accepted, it meant that this matter was over.
As for the future, at worst, Yu Qingwei would be the leader. But there were no Sage level powerhouses in the South Sea, and Gao Zhengyang could not be stationed there. His status was still guaranteed.
Xuan Ming came to Ao Fengyuan's side. The two looked at each other with complicated gazes and bitter smiles.
After a round, they were back to square one again. Moreover, their status was even lower than before. The two Sage level powerhouses were also speechless. It could only be that fate was unpredictable and almost killed them.
Gao Zhengyang did not care about the two Sage level powerhouses' expressions. He now had to focus on dealing with the World Source Power.
He originally planned to absorb the World Source Power and forcibly push Yu Qingwei to the Sage level.
But as the Darkness Source Power continued to be released, Yu Qingwei could not hold on. Therefore, Gao Zhengyang was forced to take over the body again. It was not to deal with Xuan Ming!
After Gao Zhengyang took control of the body, he found that the Darkness Source Power had eroded Yu Qingwei's body to a certain extent. On her clear divine soul, there were already some black spots.
If this continued, Yu Qingwei would definitely fall into darkness.
Darkness did not equal evil, nor did it equal destruction. The pure Darkness Source Power was one of the two most fundamental powers in the universe.
However, Yu Qingwei's Divine Soul was not close to the Darkness Source Power. When it was eroded by the Darkness Source Power, her Divine Soul consciousness would inevitably be affected. As a result, her personality would change, she would lose her mind, and she might even die.
Gao Zhengyang's original plan was to transfer the Darkness Source Power borne by her Divine Soul to Ao Fengyuan through the Divine Soul Contract. But the efficiency of this transfer was very low, far less than what he had expected.
On the other hand, the power of the Darkness Source Power's erosion was much stronger than he had expected.
Gao Zhengyang was not afraid of taking risks. As long as Yu Qingwei could become a Sage level powerhouse, even if she was eroded by the Darkness Source Power, there would be a way to recover. But according to this state, Yu Qingwei would be completely eroded before she could become a Sage level powerhouse.
Gao Zhengyang was also a little annoyed. Things had developed to this point, and although it could not be said to be out of control, it had deviated from the route he had planned.
In fact, if his Divine Core had not been shattered, Gao Zhengyang could have contacted the Pegasus Little Red. It would not have been a problem to travel through different worlds.
But the Divine Core had been shattered, and the subtle connection between Gao Zhengyang and Little Red's Divine Soul had also been severed. The spatial laws of this world were very strict, and there was no gap left for Gao Zhengyang.
However, Ao Fengyuan had already signed the Divine Soul Contract, and he could borrow his power to forcibly break open the spatial tunnel. But this was his last resort.
Gao Zhengyang was almost killed here, and he would not be willing to leave without any gains. But without his main body, there were many things he could not do.
Fortunately, he still had the Blood God Flag, and he still had the capital to take risks.
Gao Zhengyang thought about it and activated the Blood God Flag. The black leather clothes on Yu Qingwei's body suddenly turned into a long blood-colored flag, fluttering wildly in the darkness origin power.
A small part of the Blood God Flag wrapped around Gao Zhengyang's body also flew up and merged with the long blood-colored flag.
The large blood-colored flag that was thousands of meters long absorbed darkness origin power in a frenzy. The fiery blood-colored flag quickly turned into a large patch of black.
The world origin power that was close to rank thirteen had already surpassed the Blood God Flag's conversion ability. As the darkness origin power continued to pour in, the Blood God Flag could not avoid being contaminated.
Gao Zhengyang did not care. The Blood God Flag's nature was to absorb essence blood and Divine Soul. Although it could also absorb other types of energy, it could not be quickly digested. It was normal for it to be unable to digest darkness origin power.
The laws of this world actually suppressed the Blood God Flag's power. Only after he left this world could he activate the Blood God Flag to convert origin power.
For now, the Blood God Flag could only be used as a transformer. The direct impact of darkness origin power was too powerful, and it had to go through a pressure transformation before Gao Zhengyang could absorb it and control it.
Because of the characteristics of darkness origin power, Gao Zhengyang could not directly absorb it.
But he had a powerful divine artifact in his hands: the Black Dragon Spear.
The spear that Ao Xuan had refined conformed to the Laws of this world. Moreover, he had used a dark demon dragon to refine this spear. In terms of attributes, it was innately compatible with darkness origin power.
Gao Zhengyang guessed that since the enemy had invested so much into this, it was likely that they had already planned to refine the Black Dragon Spear when the darkness origin power erupted.
No matter what the other party thought, Gao Zhengyang decided to try using the Black Dragon Spear. It didn't matter even if it was ruined. He was rich and didn't care about this divine artifact.
After being absorbed by the Blood God Flag, the darkness origin power became pure and docile.
Under the guidance of Gao Zhengyang's divine sense, it constantly poured into the Black Dragon Spear.
The rune arrays hidden within the Black Dragon Spear were constantly activated. Every rune crazily absorbed darkness origin power, like a greedy and hungry beast.
Layer upon layer of array formations were activated. The seventh step array formation was soon broken through. Then came the eighth step, the ninth step, all the way to the tenth step.
With the support of the endless darkness origin power of the entire world, the Black Dragon Spear rapidly broke through from the seventh step to the saint step. The entire process went smoothly beyond imagination.
But upon reaching the saint step, the trillions of runes became exquisite and complex. Every time a rune was activated, it consumed a massive amount of pure darkness origin power.
During this process, the darkness origin power condensed within the Black Dragon Spear through the runes, fundamentally changing the structure of the Black Dragon Spear.
The three foot long Black Dragon Spear constantly expanded, its entire form becoming the shape of a black dragon.
Gao Zhengyang wasn't considered a refining grandmaster, but he had fused with the Origin Setting Needle many times and his experience far surpassed that of an ordinary refining grandmaster.
As the Black Dragon Spear changed, he immediately discovered the problem.
"Damn, this fellow is playing a bit too big …"
Gao Zhengyang discovered that there was an eleventh step array formation within the Black Dragon Spear. In other words, the enemy wanted to refine the Black Dragon Spear into an eleventh step divine artifact.
Tsk tsk, this was a great deal.
Gao Zhengyang suddenly discovered that the other party was truly worthy of being called a divine level powerhouse. Everything was exquisitely designed, and the spirit was also great.
However, for an eleventh step divine artifact, there was definitely a part of the enemy's divine soul hidden within!
As Gao Zhengyang thought of this, his mind stirred and he rushed into the center of the array formation.
The mind was formless and intangible. It could be vast and boundless, but it could also be subtle.
The array formation within the Black Dragon Spear was composed of countless tiny runes.
As Gao Zhengyang focused his mind, he arrived in a massive black hall. The dome of the hall, the four walls, the floor, everything was engraved with countless runes.
As darkness origin power constantly poured in, the runes in the hall began to shine one at a time. A dark golden light illuminated the hall, making it seem deep and dignified.
In the center of the hall was a long throne. Sitting atop this throne was Ao Xuan.
He wore a dark gold dragon robe and a golden crown hung on his head. As he sat there motionlessly, he exuded the aura of an emperor.
Ao Xuan didn't seem surprised by Gao Zhengyang's arrival. He looked at Gao Zhengyang and said, "In the end, I was still discovered by you …"
Gao Zhengyang couldn't help but laugh. "Bastard, your luck is too bad!"
Ao Xuan nodded. "It can't be said that my luck is bad. You have the ability."
"I like what you said."
Gao Zhengyang smiled. "However, you made a big mistake. I won't let you go."
Ao Xuan said indifferently, "To tell the truth, I have already overestimated you. But you still gave me many surprises. After this, I will reevaluate you. Next time, I won't give you any chances. "
"Haha …"
Gao Zhengyang was unmoved. "After saying so much, you're still just a braggart prince!"
He paused and said, "You took the initiative to give it to me, but I won't say thank you."
Ao Xuan smiled. "No need to thank me. I can also tell you that this divine artifact is actually called the Profound Dragon Armor. This is a divine artifact embryo that I refined after killing three powerful demonic dragons, including a divine-rank demonic dragon. "
"That sounds great. Not bad." Gao Zhengyang was even happier.
Ao Xuan continued, "When I was refining the Black Dragon Spear, I had a flash of inspiration and sensed the darkness source of this world. Thus, I transformed the Profound Dragon Armor into the Black Dragon Spear."
"What are you trying to do by explaining so much?"
Gao Zhengyang was puzzled. What did Ao Xuan mean by explaining so much in detail?
Ao Xuan laughed involuntarily. "Of course I have to explain so that you don't mess around and ruin the divine artifact I have prepared for tens of thousands of years!"
"Even if it is refined, it will be mine."
Gao Zhengyang found this funny. "Are you thinking of taking it back?"
Ao Xuan nodded. "Of course."
"Hahaha …"
Gao Zhengyang shook his head. "You think too much."
Ao Xuan didn't want to argue pointlessly. He continued to explain, "The Torch Dragon is the ancestor of the Dragon race. But he is not the first Dragon race. Before the epoch, there was no light or color, there was nothing, there was only endless darkness. This darkness was an incomparably powerful dragon named Xuan. Xuan, dark and endless. Everything was born from the Xuan Dragon's body. This is also the origin of my name … "
Gao Zhengyang said mockingly, "You dragons are really arrogant to dare to brag about anything. I can even say that the human divine emperor killed the Xuan Dragon and created the epoch! "
"That's not impossible …"
Ao Xuan had a reasonable look as he discussed with Gao Zhengyang with a straight face. "Whether the Xuan Dragon truly existed or not, the image realm of the Xuan Dragon is good. The Xuan Dragon is indestructible, immortal, neither void nor void. I used its divine will to refine this armor … "
Ao Xuan was very proud of his Xuan Dragon Armor and impatiently explained the various transformations and restrictions of the Xuan Dragon Armor.
Finally, he said, "After the Xuan Dragon Armor is refined, it is neither solid nor void, indestructible and has endless transformations. It is the foundation that I relied on to break through to Rank 13. Since you have the fortuitous encounter this time, refine it well. "
Gao Zhengyang shook his head and said, "You talk too much nonsense. If you have the time, why don't you teach me the refinement secret method? "
Ao Xuan stood up and laughed. "Fine, I'm just afraid you won't want it."
As he spoke, he pointed a finger and a black light landed on Gao Zhengyang's forehead.
Gao Zhengyang's Divine Sense turned and knew that it was the refinement secret method, so he accepted it without hesitation.
Ao Xuan smiled at Gao Zhengyang meaningfully. "I'm here to help you."
He let out a long roar and pounced toward the center of the formation. The black flame formed by his Divine Soul ignited the black gem at the center of the dome.
The black flame suddenly flourished, and the formation spun like a ring, madly absorbing the darkness origin power outside.
Gao Zhengyang had seen the refinement secret method of the Xuan Dragon Armor and knew that Ao Xuan burned his own Divine Soul to activate the core formation of the Xuan Dragon Armor. Only his Rank 11 Divine Soul and incomparably familiar with the formation could activate the core formation.
At this point, the first and most important step of the Xuan Dragon Armor was completed.
The darkness origin power accumulated in the Blood God Flag was completely absorbed by the Xuan Dragon Armor. This greatly reduced the pressure on Gao Zhengyang. From now on, he could calmly absorb the darkness origin power and continuously supply it to the Xuan Dragon Armor.
Gao Zhengyang wasn't a master artificer and couldn't even forge a Rank 10 Divine artifact. Not to mention a Rank 11 Divine artifact.
But the Xuan Dragon Armor was different. Ao Xuan had prepared everything and only needed to inject enough darkness origin power to activate it.
Darkness origin power was everywhere. Although it was difficult to find darkness origin power, it wasn't too difficult for Ao Xuan.
Darkness origin power was the origin power of a world. It was the convergence of the power of the world's laws and the core of a world's origin power.
Even if a world was destroyed, it was impossible to find the world's origin power. Unless one had the ability to refine the entire world, it was impossible to extract the world's origin.
This was something even a Rank 13 Divine Lord couldn't do!
Only in the last reincarnation of an era, when all the worlds began to gradually collapse, would there be a chance to find the world's origin.
Ao Xuan was very excited when he found that the wasteland world's darkness origin power was about to explode. He had prepared for this day for tens of thousands of years.
Everything had gone smoothly, but he never imagined that he would be killed by Gao Zhengyang. His plan to refine the Mystic Dragon Armor fell through.
The part of Ao Xuan's Divine Soul hidden in the depths of the Mystic Dragon Armor was already prepared. If Gao Zhengyang hadn't discovered anything strange with the Black Dragon Spear, he would have gone to warn him.
Fortunately, Gao Zhengyang was very sharp and very capable. But Ao Xuan's plan had also been discovered by Gao Zhengyang.
At this step, Ao Xuan had no need to hide anything. He believed that with Gao Zhengyang's confidence and arrogance, he would never intentionally destroy the Mystic Dragon Armor.
On the contrary, if Gao Zhengyang knew all this, he would do his best to refine the Mystic Dragon Armor.
Ao Xuan was also very confident. The core array of the Mystic Dragon Armor had a part of his Divine Soul that could not be erased.
As long as his main body could kill Gao Zhengyang, taking back the Mystic Dragon Armor would be as easy as turning over his hand.
Gao Zhengyang understood Ao Xuan's thoughts, but how could he be afraid? Even if Ao Xuan didn't come looking for him, he still wouldn't let Ao Xuan go.
The two sides had formed a death grudge. Either you die or I die. The Mystic Dragon Armor belonged to the victor. This was very reasonable!
The Mystic Dragon Armor was truly powerful. It only satisfied its appetite after absorbing the darkness origin power for three days.
The Black Dragon reared its head back and roared. Its claws moved, grabbing Gao Zhengyang, Yu Qingwei, Ao Fengyuan, and Xuan Ming. Then, it flew into the void.
As the spatial barrier exploded, Gao Zhengyang and the others disappeared without a trace.
