Chapter 231

Upon hearing this, Mo Yu turned to look at Gu Shihan beside him and asked curiously, "Junior Sister, do you know the specific methods and steps involved in purifying the Heart of the World?"

Gu Shihan smiled slightly and replied softly, "I know a little, but I think it's best if we listen to Jinwu's advice on this matter. After all, he's an expert with a wealth of experience!"

Upon hearing this, Jinwu immediately raised its head and chest, proudly displaying its enormous head. Its round eyes darted around, clearly appreciating Gu Shihhan's generous praise.

Jinwu's gaze swept over everyone present in turn, and he began to explain the specific operating methods to everyone in detail and patiently.

Time passed slowly, and Jinwu patiently repeated the key steps and precautions, pausing from time to time to answer everyone's questions.

Seeing everyone's expressions of sudden realization, Jinwu nodded in satisfaction and then led everyone toward the location of the Heart of the World.

Along the way, the Golden Crow grew increasingly excited. Its heart was filled with anticipation and hope. If this mission succeeded and the heart of the world was purified, not only would the world be reborn, but it too would gain the freedom it had longed for. After all, for so many years, it had silently guarded this place, never leaving its side.

It is important to know that the Heart of the World possesses immense power and wondrous abilities. As long as it remains in good condition, it will remain hidden from view, and no one can find its trace.

However, the Heart of the World is now unfortunately bound and restricted by black threads, which has greatly suppressed its power.

It is precisely to prevent these black threads from spreading further and causing greater harm that the Golden Crow has had to shoulder the responsibility of protection.

Upon arriving before the Heart of the World, the Golden Crow raised its claws without hesitation and swung them forcefully, its sharp claws instantly slicing through the palm of the hand.

In an instant, crimson blood gushed out, dripping onto the ground. Then, the Golden Crow shouted loudly, "Begin!"

Upon hearing the command, everyone acted swiftly without hesitation. In fact, they had already collected the divine beast's blood beforehand and carefully poured it into a specially made jade bowl.

At this moment, the blood in the jade bowl seemed to be given life, and began to emit a holy and dazzling light.

As the light gradually approached the black threads, the originally menacing black threads retreated in terror, as if they had encountered their natural nemesis.

Just when things seemed to be looking very promising, suddenly, a vast expanse of dark clouds appeared on the distant horizon. Accompanied by muffled thunder, a surging, overwhelming aura of darkness swept towards them like a tidal wave.

"Oh no! The dark forces have clearly detected our movements." Gu Jiahui's previously composed face instantly turned deathly pale. His eyes widened, his face filled with terror, and he shouted anxiously in a trembling voice, "Everyone, be careful!"

Upon hearing Gu Jiahui's warning, everyone present felt a chill, but they quickly recovered and entered battle mode, ready for action.

Gu Shihan gripped the Purifying Pearl tightly in her hand, her eyes filled with unwavering determination, as if the pearl could give her boundless courage and strength.

She gritted her teeth and said loudly, "No matter what, even if it takes every last ounce of strength, we must hold this place!"

Just then, dark forces surged in like a tidal wave, rapidly coalescing in the air into various ferocious and terrifying monsters that bared their fangs and claws as they pounced on the crowd.

These monsters came in all shapes and sizes; some had sharp fangs, others were covered in hard scales, and still others spewed forth raging flames, sending chills down one's spine. Faced with such ferocious enemies, Mo Yu and the others showed no sign of retreating. They unleashed their unique skills, fighting with all their might.

Jinwu generously took out a crystal-clear jade bowl from his robes and poured out the blood from it continuously.

The blood transformed into streaks of crimson light in the air, intertwining and colliding with the dark power, resulting in a stalemate for a time.

Despite everyone's valiant resistance, the dark forces were simply too powerful and gradually gained the upper hand.

Gu Shihan was extremely anxious. Her gaze remained fixed on the pink object known as the Heart of the World, and she secretly pondered how to deal with it.

After a moment, she seemed to have made up her mind and whispered to the person beside her, "No matter what, I'll try using the Purification Pearl."

Before she finished speaking, Gu Shihan activated the spiritual power within her body, controlling the Purifying Pearl to move slowly forward.

As the Purifying Pearl gradually approached the heart of the world, the originally quiet black threads suddenly seemed to sense danger and began to twist violently.

Immediately afterwards, they swiftly wrapped around the Purifying Pearl, the immense force causing the Purifying Pearl to involuntarily shift to one side, and at the same time causing the Heart of the World to deviate from its original position.

Gu Shihan seized the opportunity and took out the Heart of the World from the Moon Bracelet. Xingbai used the power of confinement to imprison the Heart of the World, which was surrounded by black silk, and used her power to move it away.

Gu Shihan reacted quickly, seeing that the space had been cleared, and pressed down the World Heart inside the Moon Bracelet. As it fell, the original World Heart trembled slightly.

"Hanhan, it's time, get up!" Xingbai shouted.

With their combined efforts and all their might, the two finally managed to send the Heart of the World, tightly bound by layers of black silk, into the bracelet that emitted a faint moonlight.

Suddenly, the Moon Bracelet trembled and instantly unleashed a powerful suction force. Xing Bai had no time to react and was quickly sucked into the Moon Bracelet with a "whoosh" sound, just like lightning.

Standing to the side, Gu Shihan felt her spiritual energy surge wildly like a runaway horse under the impact of this energy.

She groaned, felt a sweet taste in her throat, and vomited a mouthful of blood. She fell straight backward as if struck by a heavy blow.

Yu Tong reacted quickly, rushing forward to steady the swaying Gu Shihan, her face full of worry.

At the same time, Gu Jiahui was also extremely anxious when he saw the scene before him. Without hesitation, he stretched out his palm and poured his powerful spiritual energy into the floating Purification Pearl, trying to enhance its power to deal with the current critical situation.

On the other side, Wenxin was not lax at all. She quickly formed hand seals, parted her lips slightly, and chanted incantations. As the incantation rang out, orange light spots were slowly released from her hands and quickly gathered into a ribbon of light.
