I'm bound to the World-Destroying Witch

Chapter 925. The Crystal of the Sinful Spring
The tree of justice is dense, and one of its green leaves shines brightly.

The entire warship was instantly enveloped in a hazy stream of light, which spread outwards, and the cracks in the hull were completely repaired within seconds.

Immediately afterwards, a second green leaf lit up on the Tree of Sin pattern, surrounded by a rosy-gold hue, faintly radiating divine light, making it extremely mysterious.

Sensing the divine aura, Xia Feng was startled.
Could it be that the Pillar of State, Huang Ye, is about to descend?

As the second green leaf lit up, a three-person-tall, deep blue crystal appeared out of thin air in the control room lobby.

Huang Zhaoyue's fox-gray eyes narrowed, and a thought transmission echoed in Xia Feng's mind: "It's the Sin Spring Crystal. They really did have a backup plan."

"A backup plan?" It didn't seem like Huang Ye would actually arrive, but Xia Feng still had a bad feeling.

"As mentioned before, the Tree of Sin can establish a 'Tree of Sin Network,' and any spiritualist who cultivates the Shadow of Great Sin can access this network and draw 'power of sin' from it to accelerate their cultivation of the Shadow of Great Sin."

If a spiritual master within the Sin Tree network dies, their cultivated 'Sin Shadow' can be sacrificed to the Sin Tree, becoming a Sin Leaf on the Sin Tree.

Great Sin Masters can exchange their desired Sin Leaves by consuming 'Sin Points' merits.

The [Sin Spring Crystal] is one of the three core sin leaves of the Sin Tree, originating from a sage who died during the chaotic Middle Ages, and possesses the ability to resurrect the masses.

Mass resurrection? Xia Feng wondered if he had misheard. Was there really such an outrageous ability?

"The Sin Spring Crystal can be fixed inside a 'large object' and fuse with it. Afterward, any life form marked by the Sin Spring Crystal will be resurrected and reborn inside that object upon death."

The more Xia Feng listened, the more familiar the name sounded.

He inexplicably recalled a certain type of 5v5 tower defense game from his past life, where game characters could respawn at the fountain after death.
"However, this resurrection and rebirth has great limitations; it can only resurrect life forms within the range of one star system. Once outside this range or outside this regional plane, resurrection will be impossible. As for the upper limit of the number of people and the number of resurrections, it will depend on the sin power consumed."

Furthermore, each resurrection results in a significant decrease in sanity points, which is the most significant drawback limiting the number of resurrections.

"."

Xia Feng increasingly felt how terrifying the Sin Tree was. Although each Sin Leaf had its own limitations, it couldn't withstand the fact that this thing could infinitely develop and recycle Sin Leaves.

The longer the development period lasts, the more terrifying the legion's strength will become with the assistance of the Sin Tree.

So you mean...

"As one of the three core Sin Leaves supporting the Great Sin Legion, the Sin Spring Crystal cannot be exchanged by individuals. It is generally only used in large-scale wars, such as the Imperial Civil War three thousand years ago. The Great Sin Legion achieved the miracle of having a soldier casualty rate of no more than 0.1% by relying on the Sin Spring Crystal."

But clearly, Zui Ri seemed to have anticipated that Ni Yan and Zhuo Hua would die on this trip, and thus specially approved the assignment of this Zui Ye to this warship.

As she spoke, Huang Zhaoyue gazed at the azure crystal high in the sky, where two faint crimson streams of light were gathering within it.
"In ten seconds, Ni Yan and Zhuo Hua will be fully recovered."

Xia Feng glanced at the heavily injured and weakened Huang Zhaoyue, then looked towards the crystal and said in a deep voice, "Is there any way to stop it? For example, by detonating this crystal?"

Huang Zhaoyue shook her head: "The Sin Spring Crystal can indeed be destroyed, but it requires at least a god-level being to do so, neither of us has that kind of power."

Hearing this, Xia Feng expressed slight regret.

I thought I could take this opportunity to completely kill those two major sinners.

"Om-!"

With a hum of light waves, a crimson stream of light slowly condensed into a human form within the azure crystal. A dark red feather robe covered the entire body, and the androgynous, feminine face came to life. Blood-red eyeliner was applied to the corners of the eyes, making it impossible to discern gender, before the eyes suddenly opened.

As his empty pupils gradually focused, and he realized where he was, a faint smile appeared on his lips, and he slowly floated to the ground.

He did not immediately bow to Huang Zhaoyue, but instead looked out of the warship's porthole, where the cold blue light of the ever-flowing seawater entered his eyes.

Zhuo Hua's lips curled into an even wider smile: "Interesting. So it seems we've already escaped Burning Sky Island?"

As he spoke, he turned around, his effeminate gaze fixed on the black and white female figure in the distance.

A black-and-white female figure leaned back in a metal-backed chair, a black cat crouching on her knees and skirt, its eyes half-closed as if dozing.

"Your Highness the Imperial Concubine has quite the methods; even without the blessing of the Sin Spring Crystal, you were still able to escape alive."

Zhuohua narrowed her eyes slightly, glancing at Huang Zhaoyue's indifferent face, and chuckled, "However, Your Highness seems to be seriously injured."

Although Huang Zhaoyue tried to conceal it and her face was no longer pale, Zhuohua could easily tell that the princess was in very bad shape.

Huang Zhaoyue's fox-grey eyes were extremely cold and indifferent. She lightly raised her eyes to look at the man in feather robes. "Zhuohua Shadow Venerable, you failed to obtain the Abyss Bone Flower on this trip. You should be concerned about how to go back and explain to the Pillar of the State, instead of wasting time testing me here."

"Oh?"

Zhuohua's lips curled into a strange smile. "Your Highness, who told you that the mission to obtain the Abyss Bone Flower failed?"

Huang Zhaoyue frowned almost imperceptibly.

Xia Feng lay on her lap and slowly raised his orange-yellow vertical pupils, his terrifying beast eyes fixed on the Great Sin Shadow Venerable in the distance.

Zhuohua smiled and casually snapped her fingers, causing two bone-white flowers to float in her palm.

A chilling aura spread out and quickly floated up automatically, seemingly attracted by Huang Zhaoyue's bloodline aura. In an instant, it flew to Huang Zhaoyue and circled around her.

"Your Highness, please absorb this flower to complete the repair and stabilization of your bloodline." Zhuohua spoke with great respect, smiling and bowing.

Huang Zhaoyue looked at the two bone-white flowers in front of her, her dark gray eyes narrowing slightly: "Wasn't the information about the spy a trap set by Fen Tian? How did you obtain it?"

"Your Highness, although you are of noble status, if you want to know more about the internal secrets of the Great Sin Legion, you must first ask the Pillar of State, Huang Ye."

Zhuohua shrugged, intrigued. "Or is it that you're unwilling to consume these two Abyss Bone Flowers?"

Huang Zhaoyue's gaze was calm, without the slightest hesitation. She casually crushed the Abyss Bone Flower into a stream of light, which flowed into her brow.

The previously unstable right half of the shadow figure quickly took on a solid form in white.

The unstable abyssal field around him quickly dissipated, and the dangerous area that was originally within two meters that no one could approach was drawn into his body.

The bloodline stabilizing again has both advantages and disadvantages.

The benefit is that her power ceiling will be further increased, and she will be able to use many bloodline techniques that were previously unusable.

As for the downside, the Abyss Field cannot be maintained outside the body indefinitely. Once severely injured and unable to resist, the Abyss Field will no longer be able to automatically protect her from danger.
