Legend of the Embroiderer

Chapter 563 The Crisis of the Light Shield and Clues to its Origin (2)

The fusion entity sealed the separated black light spots in a container on the experimental table. The black light spots kept hitting the container, but could not break through the container's restraint. "The Land of the Great Origin is the birthplace of the Great Origin Runes and the core of the consciousness of an ancient being. Going there to awaken the guardian is undoubtedly walking into a trap, but it is the only way at present."

Just as the fusion was about to leave the laboratory and return to the new narrative shield, a violent tremor suddenly came from the laboratory walls. The runes on the walls began to rotate in reverse, and the fragments of the instruments on the ground began to float up and move towards the laboratory's exit.

"what happened?"

The fusion entity's expression turned solemn. She could sense a powerful black energy emanating from outside the laboratory—it was the enraged consciousness of an ancient being after its runes were stripped away. It was mobilizing all the black energy in the void to attack the entrance to the forgotten space, attempting to destroy the laboratory and prevent the fusion entity from obtaining the primordial primordial energy.

A black crack suddenly appeared at the laboratory's exit, from which countless streams of black energy surged toward the experimental table. The consciousness of the ancient being knew that the primordial primordial energy remaining on the experimental table was the key to stopping it; to completely destroy the new narrative shield, this energy had to be destroyed first.

"We can't let it destroy the primordial energy!"

The fusion entity shielded the golden-black fragments behind it, while simultaneously condensing the primordial primordial energy on the experimental table into a pale golden light shield, blocking the flow of black energy.

The black energy stream struck the light shield, emitting a piercing hissing sound. The energy on the surface of the light shield began to gradually decrease, but it still stubbornly blocked the advance of the black energy.

"Guardian, hang in there a little longer!"

The fused entity poured all its white light into the light shield. "I have found a way to awaken you. As long as I can bring the Primal Primal Energy back to the light shield, I can collect the fragments of my clone's consciousness and go to the Primal Origin Land to awaken you. We will definitely be able to completely eliminate the threat of the ancient beings!"

The golden-black fragment suddenly burst forth with a strong silver-gray light. The guardian's consciousness imprint within the fragment merged with the light shield's pale golden energy, instantly increasing the shield's strength. It not only blocked the black energy flow but also reflected the energy flow back into the black crack, significantly slowing the crack's expansion.

"efficient!"

The fused entity's voice carried a hint of excitement. Seizing the opportunity, she poured all the remaining primordial primordial energy on the experimental table into the golden-black fragment. The silver-gray light on the fragment's surface became even more dazzling, and the guardian's consciousness imprint became clearer. "Now, it's time to return to the new narrative shield and collect the clone's consciousness fragments!"

The fused entity gripped the fragments and rushed toward the laboratory's exit.

Just as she was about to burst out of the Forgotten Space, the laboratory walls suddenly shattered completely, and countless streams of black energy surged in from all directions, completely blocking her escape route. The consciousness of the ancient being knew that this was the last chance to stop the fusion, and it mobilized all the black energy, wanting to trap the fusion in the Forgotten Space until the new narrative shield was completely shattered.

"It seems I have no choice but to force my way through!"

The fusion entity combined the silver-gray energy from the fragments with its own white light, forming a golden-white energy blade. "The guardian's consciousness imprint can sense the weakness of the black energy. As long as we find the weakness, we can break through the blockade and return to the light shield!"

Guided by the imprint of consciousness, the fused entity wielded its energy blade and launched an attack on a weak point in the black energy flow.

The moment the energy blade struck the weak point, a tiny gap appeared in the black energy flow. The fused entity rushed out without hesitation, and the forgotten space behind it gradually transformed into a chaotic void as the black energy devoured it.

The moment it broke through the blockade, the fusion immediately flew towards the direction of the new narrative shield.

She could feel the energy fluctuations of the light shield becoming weaker and weaker, and the abnormalities of the clones becoming more and more serious. Some clones had already broken through the protective array she had set up and were attacking the core of the light shield, trying to accelerate its shattering.

"Faster!"

The fusion accelerated, and the golden-black fragment in its hand suddenly pointed in one direction of the light shield—the parallel universe bubble there was completely covered by black patterns. A familiar wave of consciousness came from the bubble; it was the guardian clone from the 17th iteration experiment. His consciousness was not fully controlled and was struggling to hold on, trying to transmit information to the fusion.

The fused entity changed direction and rushed towards that parallel universe bubble.

As she approached the bubble, it suddenly burst, and a stream of silvery-gray light shot out from it, merging into the golden-black fragments—fragments of the consciousness of the 17th clone, the first clone to actively break free from the control of the ancient being.

"Thank you."

The fused entity's voice carried a hint of relief. The silver-gray energy within the fragments had become even more powerful due to the integration of the consciousness fragments. "As long as we collect the consciousness fragments of all the clones, we can awaken the Guardian and definitely protect the new narrative shield!"

Just then, a tremendous tremor suddenly came from the void, and countless black rays of light surged from every corner of the void, converging into a huge black pillar of light, pointing directly at the core of the new narrative light shield. The consciousness of the ancient being knew that the fusion was collecting fragments of the consciousness of its clones, and it wanted to completely destroy the core of the light shield before the fusion completed the collection, leaving all beings without their last protection.

The fused entity's face turned pale. She could feel the terrifying energy contained within the black pillar of light, which was more powerful than any of the previous attacks. Once the pillar of light struck the core of the light shield, the shield would shatter instantly, and all parallel universes would be devoured by the black energy.

"We must stop the beam of light!"

The fusion entity injected all the silver-gray energy from the gold-black fragments into the light shield, while simultaneously mobilizing the uncontrolled primordial energy in all the parallel universe bubbles to form a massive energy barrier in front of the light shield's core. "Guardians, clones, let's fight the pillar of light together! As long as we hold out until all the consciousness fragments are collected, we have hope!"

The moment the black beam of light struck the energy barrier, the entire void trembled violently.

Countless cracks appeared on the surface of the energy barrier, and the silver-gray energy was rapidly leaking out, while the energy of the black pillar of light did not weaken at all and continued to impact the core of the barrier.

The fused entity could feel its white light rapidly consuming, and the consciousness fluctuations of its clones were becoming weaker and weaker. Some clones had been completely controlled and began to attack the energy barrier, attempting to help the black pillar of light break through it.

"Is it really going to fail?"

The fused entity's voice carried a hint of despair. She looked at the golden-black fragment in her hand, the guardian's consciousness imprint within it flickering as if encouraging her not to give up. "No, we still have hope. There are still many fragments of consciousness from the clones that haven't been collected. We can't just give up like this!"

Just as the energy barrier was about to shatter, the golden-black fragment suddenly burst forth with a dazzling light. The Primordial Origin Rune (which had been stripped of its consciousness and connection) within the fragment began to merge with the silver-gray energy of the energy barrier, forming a golden-black protective layer.

The moment the protective layer collided with the black pillar of light, the pillar's forward speed suddenly stopped, and it even showed a slight tendency to retreat—that was the origin rune that had severed the connection to consciousness, repelling the ancient consciousness within the pillar and slowing down its energy.

"It's an Origin Rune!"

The fused entity's voice was filled with surprise. She immediately injected the remaining white light into the protective layer, "The runes that strip away the connection of consciousness can repel the consciousness of ancient beings. As long as we can hold on, we can wait for more fragments of the clone's consciousness to merge in and completely repel the black pillar of light!"

But the merged entity was unaware that in the deepest part of the void, an even more powerful Primordial Origin Rune was slowly taking shape.

A new line of ancient primordial runes appeared on the surface of the runes:

"The gates to the Land of Origin of Nothingness have been opened to fragments of consciousness; the awakening of the guardians will be the beginning of the reshaping of the order of Nothingness..."

This line of runes is both an ancient trap and the necessary path to awaken the guardians. The more fragments of consciousness the fusion collects, the clearer the gate to the Land of Nothingness will become. The ancient beings are guarding the other side of the gate, waiting for the arrival of the fusion and the fragments of consciousness, ready to wipe them out and completely reshape the order of Nothingness.
