Chapter 446 The Shadow Underground

In the void, Lin Xiao retrieved the Mountain Seal and his gaze fell on the remnants of the Earth Soul Domain in the distance.

All the guardian star beasts had perished, and most of their corpses were stored in his storage space. Only the last fused beast was crushed by the Mountain Seal, turning into countless fragments that floated in the void.

Lin Xiao raised his hand and waved it, and seven-colored light surged from his palm, collecting all the fragments one by one.

Although not as valuable as a complete corpse, it is still the essence of more than a dozen seventh-tier giant beasts, and it can still be of some use when taken back.

After doing all this, he took a deep breath, and with a flicker of his body, flew towards the ruins of the Earth Soul Domain.

As they got closer, the details of the wreckage became clearer and clearer.

It was an irregular landmass, tens of millions of kilometers in diameter, its surface covered with an earthy yellow sheen.

The edges of the land are jagged, and in some places, traces of fracture remain, wounds left when it was shattered hundreds of thousands of years ago.

Some cracks are bottomless, extending deep into the wreckage, like scars across the earth.

The entire wreckage slowly rotated in the void, exuding a heavy and steady aura.

That was the unique aura of the Earth's rules.

Lin Xiao used the Omniscient Rule to take a look and discovered that this remnant of the Earth Soul Domain was only one-tenth the size of the original Earth Soul Domain.

"Why does it feel like... the Earth Soul Domain is different from the other four Soul Domains?"

As Lin Xiao pondered, he landed on the surface of the wreckage, feeling a solid sensation beneath his feet.

He looked around, and the Omniscient Rule was in full operation, beginning to explore the surrounding environment.

Then, his brows furrowed slightly.

gravity.

The gravity here is at least fifty times greater than normal.

Although fifty times the gravity is nothing to a seventh-tier expert, this anomaly itself is telling.

It's either a characteristic of the Earth Soul Domain itself, or some force is influencing this ruin.

Lin Xiao squatted down and reached out to touch the rocks on the ground.

Those rocks were incredibly hard, with a density far exceeding that of ordinary rocks, clearly the result of long-term tempering by the rules of earth.

He stood up and glanced around.

In the distance, there are some low hills, undulating like the folds of the earth.

Further away, there is a huge mountain range, steep and precipitous, that pierces the sky.

There were no clouds in the sky, only endless emptiness and distant, dazzling stars.

A star dozens of times larger than the sun hung in the distance, emitting a soft light that illuminated the ruins.

Lin Xiao's omniscient rule continued to spread, capturing all information around him.

He quickly noticed the anomaly.

There were living beings on this wreckage.

On the contrary, there are a large number of living beings.

Most of them are low-level earth-type creatures, with strength ranging from first to third rank, and they come in various forms.

Some resemble rock giants, slowly moving among the hills.

Some resembled yellowish-brown beetles, crawling on the ground.

Some are like mineral spirits, traversing deep underground.

But at this moment, they all hid.

Lin Xiao could sense that they were hiding in the crevices of the rocks, in underground caves, and in any place where they could hide.

Their consciousness was filled with fear.

That fear stemmed from an instinctive wariness of outsiders, as well as from the terror of the battle that had just taken place.

Although they cannot see the battle deep within the void, the fluctuations at the level of rules are enough to threaten the lives of any low-level beings.

Lin Xiao withdrew his gaze, not wanting to disturb the low-level creatures.

He didn't come to hunt them.

He came to find the core crystal of the Earth Soul Domain, seeking an opportunity to integrate this remnant into the divine kingdom.

He strode forward.

With solid rock beneath my feet, I could feel the pull of fifty times the force of gravity with every step I took.

But for Lin Xiao, this was nothing.

He walked along, observing his surroundings.

The direction of those hills, the texture of those rocks, and the distribution of those cracks were all revealed under his omniscient rules.

He could sense that a fierce battle had taken place on these wrecks.

Those massive cracks, those twisted mountains, those leveled hills—all are traces left by that battle.

Millions of years ago, this place was a battlefield where people fought against the god of mist.

Countless earth-elemental powerhouses fought to the death here, using their lives and rules to build line after line of defense.

But in the end, they failed.

The Earth Soul Domain was shattered, countless lives perished, and the remains were banished to the outside of the Misty World.

Lin Xiao stopped, squatted down, and placed her hand on the ground.

The omniscient rules were operating at full power, probing deep underground.

He could sense that the underground structure was extremely complex.

There are countless layers of rock, each containing fragments of different rules.

There are countless mineral veins, each containing precious minerals.

There are countless cavities, each of which could be a nest for living beings.

And at the deepest point—

Lin Xiao frowned slightly.

There, a powerful force lies dormant.

The aura of that power was extremely profound and steady, like the earth itself.

But he couldn't be sure what it was exactly.

Because that power was obscured by some kind of rule, and with his current pseudo-omniscient rule, he was temporarily unable to penetrate that layer of obscuration belonging to the Earth Soul Domain itself.

Lin Xiao withdrew her hand and stood up.

He needs more precise information.

He took a deep breath, and seven-colored light surged from his body, flowing around him.

The rules of the true self of all things are operating at full capacity, and the rules of omniscience are being pushed to their extreme.

The light grew brighter and more intense, eventually transforming into countless fine threads that spread out in all directions.

The silk thread pierces through rocks, mountains, cracks, and all obstacles.

Wherever they go, all information is captured and all secrets are revealed.

The underground rock structure, mineral vein distribution, cavity locations, signs of life...

Everything was clearly presented in Lin Xiao's consciousness.

Then, a glint flashed in his eyes.

found it.

Deep within the wreckage, hundreds of thousands of miles underground, a yellowish-brown crystal floats silently.

The crystal was about the size of a palm, yellowish-brown in color, with densely packed regular runes flowing across its surface, exuding a heavy aura.

That is the core crystal of the Earth Soul Domain.

Once you obtain it, you can control this wreckage and integrate it into the Eternal Kingdom.

But Lin Xiao's gaze was quickly drawn to something next to the crystal.

There, a figure stood.

A figure in human form.

He sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, as if he were asleep.

But his aura was so powerful it was terrifying.

Eighth rank.

That was the aura of an eighth-tier expert.

Lin Xiao's pupils contracted slightly.

The omniscient rule continued its investigation, capturing every detail of that figure.

It was a middle-aged man with a resolute face, a burly physique, and an earthy yellow aura surrounding him.
