Chapter 549 As Expected
And none of this has anything to do with Xu Si anymore.
Thanks to the intense consumption of his laws, he now has to undergo emergency repairs.
Time, space, life, destruction...
All of this made his understanding of the laws even more profound.
However, repairing it is not an easy task.
In short, his understanding of the rules was still too superficial.
The World Tree's transformation lasted for seven days, with golden-green light washing over the sky, land, and sea in waves, like an inextinguishable tide.
The City of Fire has been elevated to a height of over a hundred meters. Standing on the city wall and looking out, the view is so expansive that it's almost unbelievable.
It felt like standing on a suspended island, with an endless green ocean surging beneath your feet.
Xu Si remained suspended among the branches at the top of the World Tree, enveloped by a ball of golden-green energy, like a star sealed in amber.
He closed his eyes, his consciousness sinking into the newly formed little world within his body.
The edges of the pattern were indeed covered with fine cracks, like a crumpled piece of paper that had been barely flattened, with traces of tearing still remaining deep in the creases.
The cracks are slowly repairing themselves, so slowly that they are almost imperceptible.
Even though Xu Si intended to speed up the process, the effect was not obvious.
However, his star power circulation is still smooth, which is the most important thing.
If his star power circulation malfunctions, he might not even have the strength to fight back.
"Still not working?" Xu Si opened his eyes; the situation was more serious than he had imagined.
"This is none of your business! Send them back!"
When Xu Si was comforting Yi Yi, he learned that Jiao Jiao and Su Su had been trapped by her not far from him.
Although Yi Yi had a great liking for Jiao Jiao, she still had the judgment to know that Xu Si's condition just now was not suitable for meeting anyone.
Having just ascended to the level of World Consciousness, she is fully capable of trapping a Sequence 7.
"Fine, I'll see them!" They'll only worry more if I don't see them, but thankfully his broken power of law has stabilized.
"Let them up, it's alright," Xu Si comforted them.
The World Tree's branches trembled slightly, and then the fluorescent green vines that had been wrapped around Jiao Jiao and Su Su slowly loosened like the receding tide, revealing two figures that were completely covered underneath.
Meanwhile, a prominent green path extends from beneath their feet to the crown of the World Tree.
It was as if it was guiding them forward.
Jiao Jiao and Su Su walked upwards along the fluorescent green light path.
The branches and leaves underfoot are layered upon each other, each leaf like a carefully polished piece of jade, with a warm and solid feel.
Those golden-green specks of light rose from between the leaves, floating and swirling around them like a swarm of silent fireflies, leading them deeper into the canopy.
Jiao Jiao walked at the front, her eyes scanning the surroundings warily.
Her sequence perception told her that this area had an energy flow far exceeding the seventh sequence level, but that energy was not malicious; on the contrary, it carried an almost protective inclusiveness.
"Auntie, don't be so nervous," Jiao Jiao muttered from the front, though she was really speaking to herself.
Su Su replied from behind, "Why are you so nervous? Xu Si will contact us if anything happens!"
"I'm at Sequence 7 now, and my healing is even better! I just don't want that guy to die!" Jiao Jiao paused for a moment, then retorted stubbornly.
Her newly created Plague Lord sequence still leans towards healing and disease-causing properties.
Even her previous sequence traits were retained, but her trait abilities were completely changed.
She used to be able to cure diseases, but now she can cause them as well.
Of course, she prefers healing to depression.
So after confirming that Xu Si was in trouble, her first thought was naturally to help him. Back in Sequence 3, she was more like a burden.
But she's already in a high-order sequence, and she wants to play her part.
They walked among the branches of the World Tree for about fifteen minutes, as if they were walking through a primeval forest.
The fluorescent green light grew brighter and brighter, like layers of gauze being lifted, eventually revealing a vast space filled with golden-green light.
Xu Si was suspended in the center of a rich, liquid-like golden-green space.
"Red Hair?" Jiao Jiao realized that she still couldn't assess Xu Si's injuries, and her voice carried a hint of urgency and panic that she tried to hide.
In the end, she still couldn't help much.
Xu Si opened his eyes. His star-like pupils were dimmer than usual, and the swirling nebulae in his eyes also slowed down.
He glanced at Jiao Jiao, his lips twitching slightly, as if he wanted to laugh but didn't have the strength to.
"I see, I'm fine."
"You made such a commotion? How could you be so relaxed?" Jiao Jiao took a few steps forward, but was stopped by a force.
She secretly hated herself for being so useless, but the healing beams continued to cover Xu Si layer by layer.
However, those treatments had no effect on Xu Si.
"See! I told you I'm fine!"
Xu Si's current situation is actually somewhat similar to that of the Earth Star that died before.
But there are differences.
Therefore, the treatment was naturally ineffective.
Jiao Jiao didn't believe it. How could it have no effect at all?
The special light fell on Xu Si like rain, but Xu Si's expression did not change.
"I'm really fine! Oh, and tell Old Fu I'm going into seclusion for a while to try and break through to a higher level. Also, you guys take this sword; if anything happens in the City of Fire, he'll intervene!"
Right now, Xu Si's injuries are definitely the top priority, so naturally he can't worry about the City of Fire.
However, the intervention of a level eight weirdo was enough to control the situation.
Su Su reached out and took the Sword of Kingship, unsure whether Xu Si was telling the truth.
Because Xu Si now feels even more terrifying to her than before; at least before, she had a vague idea of what was going on.
Now she is facing what feels like an abyss, like deep space.
However, she knew one thing: neither she nor Jiao Jiao could help Xu Si with his current situation.
"I'll have Yi Yi escort you down!" he said.
"I'm not leaving. Red Hair, tell me if you're seriously injured. I know you need me!" Jiao Jiao's voice trembled slightly, and the dark green light gathering at her fingertips was much more intense than before.
Even though it was invalid output, she continued.
"Jiao Jiao, that's enough," Su Su said, reaching out to stop her.
She came with Jiao Jiao on this trip to prevent the girl from being stubborn.
as predicted.
"I'm already at Sequence Seven, Auntie, how come it's completely useless? How could it be..." Jiao Jiao was somewhat devastated; she still couldn't help at all.
Xu Si fell silent.
Looking into her stubborn eyes, he felt as if he were seeing the same stubborn little girl from long ago.
"But some things can't be solved simply by being ranked higher or lower," he said.
Jiao Jiao finally stopped, looking completely bewildered.
Su Su looked on, her eyes filled with heartache and desolation.
It was directed at Jiao Jiao, and also at himself.
