Legend of the Embroiderer

Chapter 730 The Perilous Journey of Star Core Shattering (1)

Within the passage of the cosmic sea, the colorful light stream of the Primordial Void Explorer grew increasingly dim, and the energy maintaining the passage flickered like a candle in the wind.

The fused entity tightly gripped the fragment of the Ultimate Balance Key in its hand, and golden light continuously supplied initial balance energy to the Primordial Void Explorer, but could only barely slow down the rate at which its energy dissipated.

"This is not the way to go."

Anxiety arose within the pale blue light stream of the azure sea. The ocean's balanced energy detected the silver-gray energy rapidly approaching from behind. "The Lord of Reset is faster than us; it won't be long before he catches up with us."

The crimson light of the embers traced a fiery path within the passage, attempting to reinforce its walls.

"We must find a universe to hide in temporarily and allow the Primordial Void Explorer to recover its energy, otherwise we won't even be able to find the location of the next fragment."

The consciousness stream of the Primordial Void Explorer transmitted faint information, while simultaneously constructing a cosmic coordinate system in front of the passage:

"Ahead... 'Misty Universe'... Energy disorder... Suitable for hiding... But there are 'Misty Consciousness Entities' inside... Extremely vigilant against external energy..."

Without hesitation, the merged entity immediately led the team towards the direction of the Misty Universe.

Outside the passage, various cosmic bubbles of different shapes constantly swept past the cosmic sea. Some shimmered with vitality, while others exuded deathly energy. Meanwhile, the silver-gray energy behind them was always a constant shadow, like a death warrant.

After passing through a thick layer of energy mist, the team finally arrived at the Misty Universe.

The sky here is shrouded in a grayish-white mist, and the ground is covered with moving "mist rocks." The mist energy floating in the air can interfere with consciousness and perception, and even the detection of the initial balance source core becomes sluggish.

"Everyone stay alert and don't get separated."

The fusion released golden energy, forming a protective shield around the team. "The mist energy interferes with consciousness, and once they get separated, it's difficult for them to reunite."

Within the initial, ethereal remnants of fused light flow, memory energy transformed into fine filaments of light, barely penetrating the mist to detect:

"There is a relatively stable energy zone five kilometers ahead, where we may be able to rest for a while."

The team carefully navigated through the mist, avoiding the moving mist rocks, and finally arrived at the energy zone.

A "Mist Cave" composed of pale purple energy. The energy fluctuations inside the cave are relatively stable and can isolate external mist interference.

Upon entering the cave, the Primordial Void Explorer landed weakly in the center, its colored light stream almost transparent:

“I need… half an hour… to recover my energy… During this time… you must guard the cave… and prevent the mist consciousness from discovering it…”

The fused entity nodded, and together with Canglan and Yanjin, they guarded the three entrances to the cave. The new consciousness and the initial void remnant remained in the center to assist the primordial void explorer in restoring its energy.

Outside the cave, the sound of flowing mist energy was like a whisper, occasionally punctuated by the faint roars of mist consciousness, enveloping the entire cave in a tense atmosphere.

Half an hour had passed when the colorful light stream of the Primordial Void Explorer finally regained a glimmer of luster. Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, a violent energy fluctuation suddenly came from outside the cave.

The silver-gray energy broke through the mist and struck the entrance to the cave, instantly cracking the pale purple energy barrier.

"The Lord of Reset is coming!"

The crimson energy of the Flame erupted instantly, forming a wall of fire at the cave entrance, temporarily blocking the silver-gray energy.

"How did he find this place? The energy of the Misty Universe can clearly interfere with detection!"

A somber atmosphere settled within the golden light of the fused entity, and the initial equilibrium source core suddenly sensed a faint fluctuation emanating from the fragments:

"It's a fragment! The fragment is connected to the energy of the Ultimate Balance Core, and the Lord of Reset can locate the fragment's position through the core's energy!"

Before the words were finished, another entrance to the cave was suddenly blasted open by silver-gray energy, and the figure of the Lord of Reset appeared at the cave entrance, with silver-gray energy forming an energy vortex around him:

"You think you can escape this by hiding in the Misty Universe? As long as the fragment is still in your hands, no matter where you run, I will find you!"

He waved his hand, releasing two silver-gray light blades that struck the fused entity and the primordial void explorer respectively.

The fused entity mobilized its golden energy to block the light blade, while the primordial void explorer, whose energy had not fully recovered, was grazed by the light blade, and most of its colorful energy dissipated instantly.

"The Primordial Void Exploration Entity!"

The fused light stream of the initial void remnant immediately rushed forward, and the memory energy transformed into light chains, entangling the light stream of the primordial void explorer and pulling it deep into the cave for protection.

Within the black and white light stream of the new consciousness entity, the memory fragments of the first Chaos Lord were rapidly circulating, and the consciousness energy transformed into a beam of light, shooting towards the energy vortex of the Reset Lord: "We cannot remain in a passive defense forever!"

"Merged entity, you take the Primordial Void Explorer and the fragments and go first. We'll hold him off!"

"No! Let's go together!"

The golden light of the fused entity intertwined with the black and white energy of the new consciousness, forming a double barrier.

"We are the ultimate balance team, and we will never abandon anyone!"

Suddenly, a series of dense roars came from outside the cave, and countless gray-white misty consciousnesses rushed out from the mist, surrounding the Lord of Reset and the cave.

These mist consciousnesses have no fixed form, and are surrounded by chaotic mist energy, which is hostile to both the silver-gray energy and the team's energy.

"It's the Mist Consciousness! They've mistaken us and the Lord of Reset for intruders!"

A look of surprise appeared in Canglan's pale blue light. "This is troublesome. We have to face attacks from both the Lord of Reset and the Mist Consciousness at the same time!"

The Lord of Reset clearly hadn't expected to encounter the Mist Consciousness Entities. Its silver-gray energy vortex expanded instantly, engulfing the approaching Mist Consciousness Entities.

"You annoying bug! Get out of my way!"

However, the number of Mist Consciousnesses increased, and the grayish-white Mist energy surged towards the Lord of Reset like a tide. Although the strength of a single Mist Consciousness was not strong, their sheer number gradually suppressed the Lord of Reset's energy vortex, preventing him from launching an attack on the team for the time being.

A glimmer of hope flashed in the merged entity's eyes: "This is our chance! Primordial Void Explorer, can you pinpoint the location of the next fragment? Let's break through now!"

The primordial void explorer's colorful light stream spun rapidly, its consciousness energy piercing through the mist, locking onto a new coordinate in the direction of the cosmic sea:

"The next fragment... is in the 'Mechanical Balance Universe'... where the energy is primarily 'mechanical balance'... the guardian 'Mechanical Core' is incredibly powerful... perhaps it can help us withstand the Lord of Reset..."

"Okay! Let's go now!"

The fusion entity mobilized golden energy to blast an exit through the weakest point of the cave.

"New Consciousness Entity, Canglan, you cover the rear and block the pursuit of the Mist Consciousness Entity; Yanjin, Primordial Void Remnant, you protect the Primordial Void Explorer and the fragments, I will clear the way!"

The team immediately took action. The golden energy of the fusion exploded a path ahead, with Flame Ash and the remnants of the initial void protecting the primordial void explorer in close behind.

The new consciousness and Canglan constructed an energy barrier behind the passage to block the pursuing mist consciousness.

Seeing this, the Lord of Reset roared and broke through the encirclement of the misty consciousness entities. His silver-gray energy transformed into a streak of light, chasing after the team.

"Trying to run? Leave the fragments behind!"

Just as the Lord of Reset was about to catch up, a strong mechanical energy fluctuation suddenly came from the direction of the Mechanical Balance Universe. A "mechanical gate" made of metal and energy opened in front of the team, and a cold mechanical voice came from behind the gate:

"Outsiders entering the mechanical balance universe must abide by the laws of mechanical balance, or they will be regarded as enemies."

"It's the mechanical core!"

Excitement surged within the consciousness of the Primordial Void Explorer: "Quickly enter the Mechanical Gate! Once inside the Mechanical Universe, the Mechanical Core will intervene to stop the Lord of Reset!"

The fragment suddenly trembled violently, and a black crack appeared within the five-colored light.

The Void Reset Energy of the Reset Lord is corroding the seal of the fragments. Before long, the seal will break, and the energy that erupts will be even more powerful than before.

The colored light stream of the Primordial Void Explorer had become extremely faint, and its consciousness stream conveyed its final message:

"The fragments... can only seal it for a quarter of an hour... You must quickly take the fragments... to the next universe... find more fragments... only then can the Lord of Reset be completely sealed... I will... use my last bit of energy... to buy time..."
