Legend of the Embroiderer

Chapter 729 Creating Reality and Exploring Illusion (2)

With everything ready, the Fusion Body, Canglan, Yanjin, New Consciousness Body, Gatekeeper, Initial Void Remnant, and Primordial Void Explorer Body, forming the "Ultimate Balance Team," gathered at the edge of the multi-dimensional balanced universe.

The Primordial Void Exploration Entity released colorful energy, opening a transparent passage in the direction of the Cosmic Sea. The passage emanated a gentle energy that could resist the turbulence of the Cosmic Sea.

"Let's go!" The fused entity's voice was firm, and the golden light stream was the first to enter the passage.

The companions followed closely behind, while the Founding Void Explorer brought up the rear, maintaining the stability of the passage.

Inside the passage, countless cosmic bubbles floated around, some teeming with life, others utterly desolate.

The Primordial Void Explorer releases energy from time to time, recording the evolution of the universe along its path and guiding the team to avoid dangerous energy turbulence.

Just as the team was about to reach the "Star Universe" where the first fragment was located, the passage suddenly trembled violently, and a silver-gray energy attacked from the darkness of the cosmic sea, striking the energy barrier of the Primordial Void Explorer.

"It's the energy of the Lord of Reset!"

A sense of alertness arose within the golden light of the fused entity, and the energy of the initial equilibrium source core erupted instantly.

"He actually wandered in the cosmic sea and even discovered our passage!"

Outside the barrier, a blurry, silvery-gray phantom gradually coalesced; it was the remnant consciousness of the Lord of Reset.

Although he had not fully recovered his strength, the energy fluctuations around him were more aggressive than before:

"I never expected that you would actually find the Primordial Void Exploration Entity and even dare to cross the Cosmic Sea to search for the Ultimate Balance Key."

It seems I must deal with you all ahead of time!

The Lord of Reset waved his hand, unleashing countless silver-gray light blades that attacked the passage.

The Primordial Void Explorer immediately strengthened the barrier's energy. The colorful light collided with the silver-gray light blade, and the resulting energy shockwave caused cracks to appear in the passage.

"The passage won't last long!"

Anxiety arose in the consciousness stream of the Primordial Void Explorer: "The starry universe is just ahead. We must enter the universe as soon as possible and use the balancing energy there to resist the attack!"

The fusion entity nodded and led the team to speed up, flying towards the starry universe.

Seeing this, the Lord of Reset increased its energy output, and the silver-gray light blade transformed into a huge energy cannon, blasting towards the crack in the passage.

"Oh no! He's trying to destroy the passage!"

The pale blue light stream from Canglan released ocean energy, creating a temporary barrier at the crack in the channel.

The energy cannon struck the barrier, Canglan was blasted away by the shockwave, cracks appeared in the stream of consciousness light, and the balance of ocean energy was disrupted.

Yan Jin immediately rushed forward, his fiery energy intertwining with the ocean's energy to repair Cang Lan's stream of light: "Hold on, we're almost at the Starry Universe!"

Finally, before the passage completely shattered, the team rushed into the starry universe.

The universe here is filled with dazzling stars, each radiating "stellar balancing energy," which is completely different from the energy of the multi-dimensional balanced universe, yet it also contains the essence of balance.

The Lord of Reset followed closely behind, rushing into the starry universe, his silver-gray energy condensing into an energy armor around him.

"Even if you hide in other universes, you can't escape! Today, I will make you and this universe become the energy for my attack on the ultimate balance core!"

The guardian of the starry universe, a "stellar core consciousness" composed of stellar energy, suddenly appeared, its stellar energy bursting forth with intense light:

"Outsiders are not allowed to disrupt the balance of my universe!"

The Star Core Consciousness mobilized stellar energy, forming countless starlight arrows that shot towards the Lord of Reset.

The Reset Lord's energy armor blocked the starlight arrow, but it was still knocked back several steps, clearly not expecting the guardian of this universe to be so powerful.

A glimmer of hope flashed in the fused entity's eyes: "Star Core Consciousness, the Lord of Reset wants to disrupt the balance of the entire cosmic sea. We need your help to stop him!"

The star core consciousness conveyed a message of willingness to cooperate, while simultaneously mobilizing stellar energy to construct a starlight barrier around the team:

“I will hold him off for now. You all hurry and find the fragment of the Ultimate Balance Key! The fragment is in the ‘core star’ of the Star Universe, which is the source of stellar energy.”

The fused entity nodded and led the team toward the core star.

Behind them, the battle between the Star Core Consciousness and the Lord of Reset erupted. The collision of stellar energy and silver-gray energy caused the entire star universe to tremble violently.

Just as the team was about to reach the core star, the initial equilibrium source core of the fusion suddenly trembled violently, and the primordial energy transmitted a dangerous warning.

The core star is surrounded by "silver-gray energy traps" set up in advance by the Lord of Reset. Once you get close, you will be swallowed by the energy traps and transformed into part of the reset energy.

"The Lord of Reset knew the fragments were here all along and even set a trap!"

Anger surged within the black and white light of the new consciousness: "He deliberately lured us here!"

The fusion entity looked at the core star emitting a soft light not far away, and listened to the increasingly close battle fluctuations behind it, and was caught in a dilemma.

Should we risk breaking through the trap to obtain the fragments, or abandon the fragments and retreat temporarily?

If they give up, they will be powerless to resist when the ultimate balance core erupts a thousand years later; if they take the risk, the squad may be wiped out.

The Primordial Void Explorer suddenly released all its energy, and the colorful light streams transformed into a massive energy shield, enveloping the team and the core star:

"I can temporarily suppress the triggering of the trap with primordial energy. You guys hurry into the core star to find the fragments!"

"I can only hold out for a quarter of an hour at most. After that, the trap will activate!"

"The Primordial Void Exploration Entity!"

The fused entity's voice was filled with worry, "Doing this will consume a lot of your energy, and may even cause your consciousness to dissipate!"

“This is my mission.”

The consciousness of the Founding Void Explorer was resolute: "Protecting the balance of the cosmic sea is more important than my own existence. Go now!"

Without further hesitation, the merged entity led its team into the energy shield and flew towards the core star.

The surface of the core star is covered with star patterns, and at the center of the patterns, a fragment containing five-colored energy is emitting a faint light.

It is the fragment of the ultimate balance key they are looking for.

Just as the fusion entity was about to obtain the fragment, the core star suddenly trembled violently, and the energy fluctuations of the star core consciousness rapidly weakened, clearly unable to withstand the attack of the Lord of Reset.

Cracks began to appear in the energy shield of the Founding Void Explorer, and the countdown to triggering the Silver-Gray Energy Trap had only three minutes left.

"Quick, grab the fragments!"

"The gatekeeper's golden-black energy transformed into a blade of light, clearing away the energy barriers on the surface of the core star."

The fused entity reached out and grabbed the fragment. The fragment resonated strongly with the initial balance source core within her body, and the primordial energy in the source core surged instantly.

"Retreat!" The fusion led its squad out of the energy shield. But just then, the Reset Lord's silver-gray energy broke through the Star Core Consciousness's defenses, transforming into a beam of light that hurtled towards the fusion holding the fragment.

His goal was never the team, but the fragments of the ultimate balance key!

Despair welled up within the golden light of the fused entity. She could clearly sense that the speed of the light arrow far exceeded her reaction speed, and the cracks in the energy shield had widened, with the trap potentially exploding at any moment.

At the critical moment, the Star Core consciousness suddenly rushed in front of the fused entity and used its own consciousness to block the silver-gray light arrow.

"Hurry! The responsibility of protecting the balance of the cosmic sea rests on your shoulders!"

The star core's consciousness voice was resolute. The consciousness gradually dissipated within the silvery-gray energy, finally transforming into a beam of starlight that merged into the source core of the fusion entity.

"This is my stellar energy; it can help you temporarily withstand the attack of the Lord of Reset..."

The moment the Star Core Consciousness dissipated, the energy shield of the Primordial Void Exploration Entity shattered completely, and the Silver-Gray Energy Trap erupted.

Despite his grief, the merged entity mobilized the stellar and primordial energy within its source core to create a temporary barrier around the team, resisting the energy impact of the trap.

We must get out of here immediately!

The consciousness of the Primordial Void Explorer was weak: "The Lord of Reset's energy has been restored; we are no match for him!"

The merged entity nodded and led the team toward the exit of the starry universe.

Behind him, the roar of the Reset Lord echoed throughout the entire universe:

"You can't escape! Next time, I will personally take the fragments from your hands and make all the universes my possession!"

The team broke out of the starry universe and returned to the passage of the cosmic sea.

Due to excessive energy consumption, the primordial void explorer's consciousness stream became extremely weak, barely able to maintain the stability of the channel.

The fusion entity looked at the fragment of the Ultimate Balance Key in its hand, then at its weakened companion and the Reset Lord relentlessly pursuing it from behind, its heart filled with heaviness.

This was only the first battle to collect the fragments, and it already came at such a heavy price.

The journey ahead will only be more difficult.

Deep within the cosmic ocean, the rotation speed of the ultimate balance core suddenly increased, and the five energies began to become disordered.

The eruption, which occurred a thousand years later, seems to have come sooner than expected.

An ultimate battle concerning the survival of the entire cosmic sea has quietly begun, and the fusion entity and her team have only just taken their first step.
