Zuo Yi placed the crystal onto the rune template.
The crystal didn't change at all, and it looked just like a beautiful gem.
However, who would've thought that it was imbued with such a terrifying evil power?
"Eternal Light."
Zuo Yi uttered the command to activate the rune template in the Kun language.
"Purification" was a high-grade spell that could only be cast by wizards who had mastered the power of light. This purification rune template was a reward he had received from a mission, and it was said that it was created by a great wizard of the Tower of Light.
Not everyone could use the rune template. Aside from a few universal templates, most templates could only be activated by certain people. For example, the user of the purification rune template had to possess a light attribute or a light attribute physique.
However, Zuo Yi possessed both light and fire attributes!
In the instant that he uttered the command, the surface of the rune template suddenly lit up, and a dazzling white light erupted from the rune template before enveloping the crystal.
The crystal was lifted into the air by the power of the light, and it hovered half a foot in the air as wisps of black smoke began to rise from its surface.
Its color had also turned from a dark green to an extremely deep black, and it trembled incessantly under the power of the purification light, as if it could shatter at any moment.
More and more black smoke began to appear, and most of it dissipated before it could spread into the surroundings. A small portion of it condensed into a ball before transforming into all types of shapes above the crystal.
Cheetahs, lions, tigers, black bears, eagles …
A series of life-like beasts materialized one after another before transforming into a series of black vine-like tentacles. They bared their fangs and brandished their claws in an attempt to break through the purification light and attack Zuo Yi.
However, their resistance was destined to be futile as they were instantly melted away by the white light. At the same time, one could faintly hear anguished howls from within the crystal, and it was quite a pitiful sight to behold.
However, it was unable to shake Zuo Yi's will in the slightest!
As the power of the purification light continued to be unleashed, the surface of the crystal was peeled off layer by layer, melted, and annihilated. It became smaller and smaller in size, and its color also changed from pure black to dark green, and then to emerald green.
When the final wisp of black smoke was purified, the crystal had already shrunk to the size of a pigeon's egg, but it was still as translucent and green as a top-grade imperial green jade!
Patter!
It fell onto the rune template and made a crisp sound.
The purifying light immediately disappeared, and the rune template returned to its original state.
However, upon closer inspection, one would notice that its luster was somewhat dim. This was a sign that it had consumed energy.
A rune template could be used multiple times. As long as the template was not damaged and the energy was replenished in time, it would be fine.
Its energy source was the power of laws, different types of power of laws.
Zuo Yi picked up the purified green crystal and held it in his palm again.
This time, he did not sense any evil power, and as he channeled his mental power into it, the secret hidden in the crystal was revealed without reservation.
The crystal emitted a dazzling green light. Wherever the light covered, the objects made of wood, such as the pen holder, the bookshelf, the table, and even the wooden shell of the small speaker next to it, sprouts, leaves, and mushrooms grew out one after another!
This scene could only be described as miraculous!
When Zuo Yi withdrew his mental power, the crystal stopped emitting light, and the mushrooms that had just grown withered and turned into ashes.
Zuo Yi had already understood its origin.
This magical crystal was the Druid's Heart. It was condensed from the power and wisdom of a great Druid from another plane. The inheritance of this great Druid was sealed inside!
However, there was only inheritance and no memory, so Zuo Yi did not know which plane it came from, how the Druid's Heart was eroded by evil power, and how it appeared in the Blue Star World.
The only thing Zuo Yi was sure of was that it was definitely not a product of the Blue Star World!
In the battle just now, Zuo Yi realized that the monster created by the Druid's Heart had already adapted to the laws of the Blue Star World. It should have existed for a long time.
Such a thing appeared only 20 kilometers away from Zuo Yi. Did that mean that there were more similar existences in other places?
Da Xia was so vast, and the world was so vast!
Recalling the contents of the Supernatural Authority's internal records, Zuo Yi suddenly felt like he had fallen into a trap.
In the past few decades, more and more people awakened, and supernatural events happened constantly. The whole world was facing new changes, and no one really knew where Bluestar was going to go.
But at this time, the world's consciousness had fallen asleep.
The heavy responsibility of protecting the world was given to him!
Zuo Yi could not help but shake his head and continue to play with the Druid's Heart in his hand.
It was gentle and soft, and it emitted a faint aura of life.
This thing was a treasure to others, but it was useless to Zuo Yi.
Because Zuo Yi's power level was far above this great Druid's, it was impossible for him to become a Druid.
However, Zuo Yi knew that there was one person who was very suitable for it, and who needed it very much!
After thinking for a while, Zuo Yi put the Druid's Heart into the Space Ring.
…
The next morning, Tenhiro Budokan.
Zuo Yi had just finished teaching the students when he received a call.
He immediately left the martial arts hall and went downstairs to a milk tea shop opposite the Jiaping Building.
The shop was very quiet. Other than a few employees, there was only a middle-aged man sitting by the window.
The middle-aged man was about 40 years old. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his facial features were regular. He was wearing casual clothes.
He was holding a cup of milk tea in his hand, but he did not drink it. His eyes were not focused on it, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Zuo Yi walked over and sat opposite the middle-aged man. "Director Lu?"
The middle-aged man raised his head, put down the milk tea, and showed a sincere smile. "Left Counselor, I'm sorry to disturb you today."
He was the Director of the Investigation Department of the Jiangnan Supernatural Authority, Lu Han.
"Director Lu, you're too polite."
Zuo Yi shook hands with him and asked politely, "When did you come back?"
Lu Han had been on a business trip in Shanghai. Zuo Yi had talked to him on the phone once. Today was the first time they met.
"I just came back last night."
Lu Han sighed and said, "I had to come back after such a big thing happened."
Zuo Yi nodded to show that he understood.
Cheng Hao had killed a family of ten. The case involved was undoubtedly very serious. The management of the Supernatural Authority could not be indifferent.
Lu Han asked, "Have you read the preliminary investigation report?"
Zuo Yi replied, "Yes, I have."
Lu Han asked again, "What do you think about this?"
Zuo Yi said indifferently, "I just want to say that it's forgivable, but unforgivable."
"Forgivable …"
Lu Han's eyes became deep. "Unforgivable!"
"You're right."
He sighed and said, "It's just a pity that a naturally awakened genius Extraordinaire died. Now that the evidence is conclusive, the management wants to quickly retrial and sentence Cheng Hao. At most, he can live for another month."
After a pause, Lu Han continued, "He pleaded guilty very well and was very cooperative. Moreover, he has no intention of defending himself. I don't think he will appeal after the verdict."
"In addition, he is willing to donate his organs and body to atone for his crime."
Zuo Yi was silent.
Just as Zuo Yi had guessed, Cheng Hao was the real Cheng Hao now.
But it was too late.
From the moment he killed the first person, he had embarked on a path of no return. He was doomed to a tragic end.
Forgivable, unforgivable!
Lu Han said, "His only request is that we take good care of his sister and see her one last time."
Zuo Yi suddenly asked, "Director Lu, can I meet Cheng Hao?"
Lu Han was taken aback. "It shouldn't be a problem. If you want to meet him, I'll make the arrangements."
Zuo Yi nodded. "Thank you."
"You're welcome."
Lu Han hesitated for a moment before saying, "Some people are curious about your strength, and some want to know how you destroyed the supernatural origins of other supernatural beings. But you don't have to pay attention to them."
The supernatural origins were the source of power for all supernatural beings. The location of the supernatural origins in a supernatural being's body was not fixed. Some were in the head, some were in the chest, some were in the abdomen, and some were even in the limbs, nose, and ears.
Killing a supernatural being might be very difficult, but it could also be very simple. However, there were not many people who could destroy the supernatural source of a supernatural being without harming their life.
Under Zuo Yi's command, Cheng Yuan, Ling Yu, and Cheng Hao were only injured but not killed after losing their sources of power.
This was very interesting.
To be honest, Lu Han was also very curious. He realized that he could not see through Zuo Yi's strength at all.
But as the director of the investigation department of the Jiangnan Superpower Management Bureau, he had his own bottom line and principles. He did not want to see a supernatural being with unfathomable strength become estranged from the Superpower Management Bureau because of some people's selfish desires.
Therefore, he openly explained his thoughts to Zuo Yi.
Zuo Yi smiled. "I understand."
Lu Han was a good person.
And so far, the colleagues he had met in the Superpower Management Bureau, such as Qin Qin, Lu Guang, and the others, were all very nice people.
But this did not mean that everyone in the Superpower Management Bureau was a good person.
Zuo Yi was not that naive.
The reason why Zuo Yi had destroyed Cheng Yuan, Ling Yu, and Cheng Hao's supernatural origins was to strip them of their special identities as superhumans and make them lose their value that was different from normal people.
For example, if Cheng Hao still had the powerful Druid abilities, he might not have been sentenced to death.
The human heart was the most complicated thing, and it was especially difficult to guess the thoughts of those in power.
Zuo Yi's solution was the most efficient.
But he would not say it out loud, and Lu Han should be able to guess it.
Lu Han smiled and said, "That's good."
