When Jianchen, the Heavenly Enchantress, and Black Fish heard what Ruijin had said, they were all surprised. They immediately sensed it carefully and indeed discovered that the strange energy formed by the fusion of the two energies was extremely similar to the energy above Dragon Island. It seemed to be the same kind of energy.
"So that's how the strange energy on the Dragon Island was formed. Moreover, the extremely cold and extremely hot energy can only be found in the Luna Star Cave. The appearance of the Luna Star Cave is very strange, it's as if a meteorite fell from the sky. Could it be that the abnormality on the Dragon Island really came from here?" Hei Yu analyzed.
"The two energies won't appear out of nowhere. There must be a source," Jian Chen said in a deep voice. He then began to look around. Jianchen, the Heavenly Enchantress, and Black Fish began to look around the bottom of the Luna Star Cave as well. They hoped to find the source of the two energies.
"This presence is really familiar, but it's not …" Qing Suo's bell-like voice suddenly rang out in Jianchen's head.
"Qing Suo, do you recognize the energy here?" Jianchen communicated with Qing Suo mentally.
"Master, the energy here is indeed rather familiar, but it's not that kind of energy," Ziying replied to Jianchen.
Jianchen sank into his thoughts. He said nothing and continued to look around. After traveling a hundred meters, a speck of dust on the ground attracted Jianchen's attention.
Jianchen crouched down and gently picked up a speck of dust from the ground. He studied it carefully before smiling, "Stardust. This is Stardust. I've finally found it. I never thought that Stardust would actually come from the Luna Star Cave."
Raising his eyes to look, he could only see these flickering specks of Heavenly Star Powder spread out on the ground like a layer of fine sand, covering the entire land, and he couldn't see the end of it.
Jianchen did not hesitate at all after finding the powder. He immediately pulled out a pouch from his Space Ring and began to collect it in large amounts.
In the outside world, Heavenly Star Powder was known as Spirit Gathering Powder. Aside from being able to refine the Azulet Dual Swords, it could also gather the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth. It was extremely helpful to cultivators, and if enough Spirit Gathering Powder was placed in a sect, it could immediately cause the Spiritual Qi of the sect to explosively increase, increasing everyone's cultivation speed and laying a solid foundation for the sect to become a great power in the future.
"Stardust is of great use to Changyang Prefecture. Now that I've come here after so much difficulty, I have to collect some more," Jianchen thought.
"Master, the Stardust on the ground is of inferior quality. You don't have to collect it. If you want to collect it, just take the floating Stardust." Ziying's voice suddenly, in Jianchen's head.. Ziying.
"What? Inferior quality?" Jian Chen was stunned. He looked at the Heavenly Star Powder that had already filled up half of his pocket. He then looked at the specks of light floating in the air like twinkling stars. He saw that every single speck of light was the size of a grain of rice. They were much larger than the fine grains of Heavenly Star Powder on the ground, and the light they gave off was much brighter as well. They were extremely beautiful.
Jianchen asked curiously, "Ziying, are these also Stardust?"
"Yes, master. These specks floating in the air are also Stardust. In terms of quality, they are all of superior quality. They are much better than the inferior Stardust on the ground." Ziying's confident voice sounded in Jianchen's head.
Jian Chen looked at the Heavenly Star Powder that was already half filled. He hesitated for a moment, but he didn't throw it away. He tied a knot in the bag and put it into his Space Ring. He then took out another bag from his Space Ring and began to collect the Heavenly Star Powder that was floating in the air.
The floating Stardust was extremely scattered, so Jianchen collected them at an extremely slow pace. He used his hands to grab them one by one.
"Come over quickly."
At this moment, the Heavenly Enchantress' voice rang out from afar. Jianchen immediately stopped collecting the Stardust when he heard her voice. He quickly ran over to where the Heavenly Enchantress was.
When Jianchen arrived, he discovered that Ruijin and Black Fish had already arrived before him. A human corpse lay before the three of them. He had no idea how long he had been dead, but his appearance had not changed at all. He remained the same as before.
Jianchen studied the corpse in curiosity. He could sense a strange energy constantly entering the corpse from the surroundings before slowly fusing with the corpse's bones. This strange energy was the energy that could only be produced by the fusion of extremely cold and extremely hot energy.
"This is a Saint Ruler. Looks like he's already been dead for a thousand years, but his corpse shows no signs of decay at all," Ruijin said with a heavy voice.
Hei Yu stared at the corpse with shining eyes and said, "I can sense that some sort of mutation is happening in his body. He's changing into the appearance of a walking corpse. It looks like the strange energy here allows the dead to possess an undying body, allowing them to survive in a strange way."
At this moment, the corpse on the ground opened his eyes without any prior signs. His eyes were empty, without any light at all. Immediately, a great roar rang out from his mouth, echoing through the entire cavern. Afterward, the corpse stood up and threw a punch at Ruijin, who was closest to him.
Rui Jin sneered disdainfully. His hand struck the corpse's chest with lightning-like speed. The great force directly reduced the corpse to dust, which scattered into the air.
However, before long, the dust that was still floating in the air immediately began to reassemble. It actually condensed back into its original form and struck toward Ruijin.
Ruijin remained emotionless. He struck out again, reducing the corpse to dust once more. After this happened six times, the corpse finally ran out of energy and could no longer reassemble. It turned into a pile of white dust on the ground.
"Looks like the problem with the changes on Dragon Island really is here," Jian Chen said with a heavy voice. Rui Jin said gravely. His face was gloomy. He was almost certain that the Lunisolar Grotto was the main culprit behind the changes on Dragon Island.
"But where have my clansmen gone?" Ruijin's face was filled with loneliness. He was probably the only dragon left in the world right now.
"Roar!"
At this moment, a great beast's roar rang out in the distance. Dense footsteps could be heard as countless corpses ran over from all directions. There were even over a dozen Holy Emperor level experts among their tremendous presences.
The Heavenly Enchantress and Jianchen both became rather stern, but Ruijin and Black Fish remained the same. They remained composed.
Not long after, densely packed human silhouettes appeared in everyone's ears. The Luna Star Cavern was the place where the walking dead formed. The number of walking dead here was a lot more than the dragon island. They were all attracted by the roar of the first walking dead.
"I never thought that there would be so many of them here. Looks like there's at least several thousand of them. It'll be rather troublesome to kill these unkillable monsters. Ruijin, I'll leave them to you," Black Fish said to Ruijin.
Ruijin glanced around and said, "It will indeed take some effort to beat them to the point where they can't reform their bodies. Whatever, leave it to me." With that, Ruijin rapidly formed seals with his hands. He called out, "Secret Technique of the Dragon clan, Seal!"
An invisible force expanded in all directions in a circle with Ruijin at the center. It only gradually disappeared after reaching several kilometers. Along the way, all the corpses in the surroundings came to a halt. They remained frozen in their running posture, unable to move at all. Even the corpses with the strength of the Holy Emperor level were no exception.
In the blink of an eye, the surroundings became extremely quiet. It was so quiet that even the sound of a pin dropping could be heard.
Jianchen was shocked when he saw this. He had witnessed Ruijin's terrifying strength once again.
"The power of the seal can't last for too long. It can only last for two hours. Let's go find the source of the strange power," Ruijin said.
The four of them no longer split up. They gathered together and headed into the distance to search for the source of the strange power. Jianchen hung the pouch on his waist and followed behind the three of them as he collected the stardust floating in the air. As his hands danced, he basically turned into a blur as he collected the stardust nearby at an extremely terrifying speed.
The Heavenly Enchantress noticed Jianchen as he collected the stardust. She immediately thought of the twelve precious stalks of Dragon's Saliva that Jianchen had given her in the artifact space. She hesitated slightly before saying, "I'll help you collect it." With that, the Zither of the Demonic Cry vanished from the Heavenly Enchantress' arms. She freed up her hands to help Jianchen collect the stardust.
"Thank you, Heavenly Enchantress." Jianchen shot a grateful smile at the Heavenly Enchantress.
The Heavenly Enchantress did not say anything. Her soft, boneless hands danced quickly as she grabbed the stardust floating around her. She then tossed it into Jianchen's pouch.
Black Fish, who walked at the front, turned his head to look at what Jianchen and the Heavenly Enchantress were doing. He snickered, "Who knows when you'll be able to collect all the specks of light like this. Whatever, let me help you out." With that, Black Fish immediately opened his mouth and called out, "Devour the world, absorb!"
A powerful suction force came from Hei Yu's mouth, creating a gust of wind at the bottom of Moon Cave. It sucked in all of the Sky Star Powder that was floating in the air before Hei Yu. In just a few breaths of time, a large amount of Sky Star Powder was floating in front of Hei Yu. There was so much of it that it was impossible to count. Every grain of Sky Star Powder that was the size of a grain of rice was tightly glued together, leaving no air behind. It had almost condensed into a meter-wide ball.
Jianchen became tongue-tied when he saw this. Black Fish's Devour the World had basically sucked in all the stardust in a radius of several kilometers. If he had used his hands to collect so much stardust, it would have taken him an entire day at the very least.
"Thank you, senior." Jianchen clasped his fist at Black Fish in a hurry after returning to his senses.
Black Fish smiled without minding at all, "It's nothing. It's nothing. Of course, if you really want to thank me, then if I suffer any serious injuries in the future and need the Artifact Spirit to heal me, you must ask the Artifact Spirit to help me recover. "
Just don't worry. If you need the Artifact Spirit, I will definitely assist you, "Jianchen said. He also understood that Black Fish was not fated to receive his aunt's assistance.
