With the skin armor as a barrier, the black water did not flow into her eyes. But it was pitch dark inside, and the only thing she could rely on was the sense of touch of her hands. This scene reminded her of the black corals that swallowed the light when she climbed out of the giant pit.

The water in the pool was not deep, and Kassa sank all the way to the bottom. His eyes went dark as he groped around at the bottom of the pool.

Then she laughed at herself and felt that her behavior was really stupid.

I clearly don't have any sense of anything, but I still want to take advantage of the situation. Is this really useful?

However, this exploration did allow her to make some discoveries.

Two dead bodies.

The corpses that appeared in the Wanzai Well were undoubtedly the remains of Viego and Isolde. Unexpectedly, they had not decayed after being soaked here for a thousand years. Perhaps the water of life still retained some of its characteristics before it was corrupted.

Besides that, she couldn't find anything else at the bottom of the pool, so she could only drag the two bodies back to the shore. If she wanted to find the rune, she had to avoid any other factors, as Viego might still have the curse of ruin left in his body.Mei Xiang is not here without me, Kong Yong and Lin You Yong......

"No, there is nothing in there except these two corpses." Kassa walked up the stairs to the shore. Water droplets slid down her skin armor and turned into footprints emitting black air.

The body was somewhat pale in complexion, but otherwise intact.

Isolde has brown hair and wears her own clothes, which are long and tapered like bloomers. Viego wears a crown and has a hole in his chest from being pierced by a sword.

"It can't be hidden in here, right?" Kasa wondered as he looked at the two corpses.

Ahri came closer, leaned over with her hands on her knees to get a closer look at Isolde's appearance. Although she had obtained the latter's memories, she could only catch a glimpse of her through the mirror from the perspective of her memories.

"Not in here." She shook her head. She didn't feel the same power from the corpse.

"I think it may have merged with the water and has no entity. Otherwise, how come you can sense it but I can't find it?"

"Then let me do it."

Hearing what Kaisa said, Ahri volunteered.

If Kaisa has no magical talent, then her magical talent is the best among the three.

The Vastaya are naturally able to sense wild magic and have the strongest sensitivity to world runes, so she should be the one to do it.

Chapter 127 World Rune: Source of Life

====

"Be careful. The World Rune has extremely powerful power, don't underestimate it." Iris warned.

Only those who can sense that power know how powerful it is.

"Ah."

Ahri nodded and looked towards the pool, concentrating.

She could feel something under the dark water in front of her that was emitting a strange atmosphere.

It was a feeling that went deep into her bones, the energy at the bottom of the pool humming in her head and whispering to her soul.

It is powerful and ancient, having existed long before the rise of man.

"The source of all things."

Ahri herself didn't know where this idea came from, but she was extremely sure that this was a tangible rune, a primitive force that created order from chaos.

It is the source of life, and life was chaotic at the beginning. Just like Vastaya, it is actually the product of the combination of humans in the material realm and Vastaya Sharei in the spiritual realm.

Therefore, Ahri clearly perceived that it was also a key to breaking the boundary between the material and spiritual realms.

Breaking the balance is not a good thing. In Ionia, where the war broke out, the war broke the balance between the two worlds, causing many spirits to come to the world from the other side of the veil. The soul flowers did not bloom for several years and their souls could not rest.

In more serious cases, like the Shadow Isles, the boundaries disappear, the magic power of the Soul Eater is amplified countless times, and all living beings are cursed and trapped in a state of neither life nor death.

Balance...The combination of the material and spiritual realms should not be too close, nor too distant. It is good only when it is maintained within a balanced boundary.

Only in this way can the soul rest in peace.

After figuring out the nature of the World Rune, Ahri reached out and pulled the rune hidden in the pool water.

As she pulled, the tentacles of the black mist suddenly changed direction and drilled towards her like a whirlwind. Fortunately, she was possessed by the Wild Hunt, and the Void Skin Armor blocked the attack of the black mist and isolated the power of the curse outside her body, allowing Ahri to continue.

Ahri is good at extracting life essence from the human body and controlling the spirit orb to attack the soul directly through the body. For her, extracting runes from black water is a piece of cake.

As she pulled, ripples appeared on the water, and a soft light rose in the center. The light was not bright, but it could penetrate the darkness, as if something was about to burst out of the black water.

Kasa paced back and forth along the edge of the pool, trying to see the strange light clearly, but it was a little far away and a little hazy, making it difficult to see clearly.

However, Ahri could feel the presence of a light source. There was light between the pool water and the white mist, and even between her breath.

A sense of urgency lingered around, and gradually, the light in the pool became stronger and stronger, and Ahri's eyes were gradually engulfed by the light.

"Appeared!"

Iris shouted, and she saw an emerald green gem slowly rising from the pool, emitting a soft light, and the surrounding black fog was completely dispelled.

Around it, tangible magic power flowed, forming a bright halo, making it look extremely sacred, making it impossible for people to imagine that this was the culprit for the black fog.

Ahri pulled the World Rune over, but the moment she got it, the seemingly stable rune suddenly burst out with energy. Her mind was directly pulled back a thousand years ago, and she felt the powerful impact of the Ruin's explosion, and lost consciousness in the shock of her mind and soul.

Kai'Sa rushed over and caught Ahri before she fell. Ahri fainted completely and did not respond even when Kai'Sa shook her head several times.

"This world rune is not very stable. The more people are friendly to magic, the more likely they are to be affected by it." The Wild Hunter speculated. To this day, he still didn't understand why Ryze didn't come to contain this rune. Could it be that the priority of the Soul-Eating Night is not as high as the problems caused by other runes?

"Then a magic idiot like me is not easily affected, right?" Kassa said with some self-mockery. Since entering Wanzai Well, she could only stare blankly and do nothing. She didn't like this feeling.

"No matter how powerful your magical talent is, it will become insignificant compared to the power of runes. If you want to use it for your own benefit, a firm will is the most important thing." The Wild Hunt explained: "The World Rune will promise power and seduce everyone who tries to control it. The greater the desire, the easier it is to be seduced. If you don't have a firm will, it's better to learn to let go."

Not so good.Mei Xiang, without me, without Lin Kongyong, without Lin Youyong...

The Wild Hunt's words made Kai'Sa look up with a sense of something, and then she saw Elise concentrating on looking at the World Rune in her hand.

When Ahri fell down just now, Kaisa's first reaction was to support Ahri, while Elise caught the rune first.

"Did you hear what the Wild Hunter said just now? Give me the World Rune." Kaisa gave the order to Elise.

"Hmm? What?" Elise looked at Kaisa belatedly, and then realized what she had just said. She subconsciously protected the rune and took a half step back. "I didn't have the intention to occupy it. I just saw Ahri fainted because she couldn't bear the power of the rune, so I took it for her."

"Give me the rune!" Kassadin's pretty face under the mask immediately darkened and she reiterated it again.

When she saw the skin armor on Kassadin's body, a trace of fear flashed in Iris's eyes, but it was immediately covered by the light emitted by the runes.

"What if you fainted like Ahri? I can withstand this force, so it's better to keep it with me first." She said stubbornly, which was uncharacteristically her style.

"I'll say it one last time, give me the rune! This is what the Wild Hunt wants." Kaisa said gritting her teeth.

"We are all from the same clan. I can obviously keep it for you, so why must I put it in your hands? I think you are the one who wants to take it for yourself!" Her eyes were full of madness. She was a greedy person to begin with, so she quickly became Rune's puppet.

Kasha didn't waste time talking to Iris, and immediately rushed over and threw her to the ground. Iris was thrown to the hard marble floor, and she groaned in pain as if her bones were about to fall apart.

She rode on Iris, grabbed her neck with one hand and pressed her to the ground, and slapped her with the other hand without saying a word, causing Iris's proud face to immediately become red and swollen.

Feeling her life was threatened, Iris subconsciously stabbed Kassadin with her appendages. Kassadin was not prepared, or rather, she didn't bother to be prepared, and the sharp appendages penetrated her skin armor and pierced into her back.

However, this also made the hand holding Iris's neck even stronger, and the huge force seemed to break her cervical vertebrae. Kassa's hand armor gradually showed vein-like lines, and liquid void energy flowed on it.

Iris' pupils shrank. She knew exactly what this meant. Once the water flowed to her fingertips, her neck would be cut by the force of space, and even the water of life would not be able to save her.

"Here you go! I don't want it anymore!"

Elise quickly placed the rune between herself and Kassadin. Seeing this, the latter stopped and stopped slapping Elise.

She grabbed the rune with one hand, but her other hand still did not let go of Iris's neck, but continued to apply force, squeezing her trachea.

Seeing Iris's face turning red due to suffocation, Kassa finally let go of her hand until the strange light in her eyes was dispelled by the strong desire to survive.

"Ugh! Cough! Cough!" Iris curled up in pain like a dead spider, covering her neck and gasping for breath.

When she felt a little relieved, she saw Kassa still kneeling beside her, looking down at her silently, motionless and no one knew what she was thinking.

Iris took two steps and crawled over to hug her thighs, begging for forgiveness: "I'm sorry, sister! I didn't mean it. I was just bewitched by the rune. Please believe me!"

"I don't blame you, because I know you are just like that."

Kaisa had calmed down from her rage. She placed her hand on Iris's head, stroking her scarlet hair that had become messy during the struggle. Her eyes were fixed on the rune in her other hand. "I knew I couldn't let you touch the rune, but you still touched it because of a moment of carelessness. This is my problem."

"No, sister, I'm too greedy. I'm not satisfied after getting so many benefits, and I want more... I swear, I will never touch runes again!" Elise looked up at Kassadin with tears in her eyes. She knew that Kassadin could ride on her like this with the tacit consent of the Wild Hunt, so she was also begging for forgiveness from the Wild Hunt.

"I don't want this to happen, but I have to do this in order to let you learn to let go." Seeing Iris's bruised face and regretful look as she tried her best to save him, Kassa couldn't help but sigh, touched her cheek and said, "Although we have never really gotten along, let's make peace this time."

"Thank you, sister." Iris gratefully pressed her cheek against Kassa's palm to show her complete obedience.

The Wild Hunter watched all this silently, and was quite satisfied.

No one is perfect, so he expected the world runes to magnify Elise's shortcomings and let Kaisa face her shortcomings and correct them.

If things are said and accepted by both parties, the relationship between these relatives will be more harmonious, rather than them being a team of temporary partners who are in name only.

Chapter 128: Kassa Steam Princess

===================================

"What now? The Wild Hunt."

Elise has honestly admitted her mistake, and after Kaisa took the rune back from her, she didn't know what to do next.

"Let me try first." The Wild Hunt answered uncertainly, trying to absorb the power of the rune through Kai'Sa's hand.

There are five rune cornerstones in Runeland, namely precision, domination, witchcraft, tenacity, and enlightenment. The world rune they obtained from Wanzai Well is a fragment of the tenacity cornerstone, called the source of life.

What the Wild Hunt saw in this rune was the endless vitality, which could provide a constant supply of energy for the armor, allowing him to no longer have to spend time hunting void creatures to absorb energy, and leave Shurima to do more important things.

However, when he tried to absorb the power of the rune, he found that it was no different from a stone in his hand. Even though its energy had overflowed and formed a mana flow around it, the Void Skin Armor could not directly draw any energy from it.

Faced with this situation, the Wild Hunt could only think of one explanation.

"The World Rune is conscious, and it is refusing to provide energy to a void creature like me."

"What should we do?" Kai'Sa frowned. They came to the Shadow Isles specifically for this rune, but they told her that it couldn't be used? No one could accept a wasted trip.

"Put it away first. Ahri is still fainted and waiting for us to rescue him."

The Wild Hunt asked Kaisa to put the rune into the hive space. Unexpectedly, the rune also resisted entering the alien space.

World Runes belong to Runeterra and cannot be taken anywhere else.

"Damn it, do I have to keep holding it in my hand like this?"

Kaisa looked at Elise next to her somewhat awkwardly. If the World Rune Wild Hunt couldn't be used, wouldn't she have beaten the other person in vain?

Besides, it's not a good idea to hold it in her hand all the time. She can't free up an extra hand to hold it when she's fighting.

Not to mention that rune holders can sense each other, which would be even more troublesome if they couldn't hide and were sensed.

After hesitating for a while, Kaisa finally decided that she could not hand it over to Elise. Ahri could not withstand the power of the runes, so she had to hold it herself.

Since the runes resist the Wild Hunt, she will take off her armor and receive it herself!

Just as Kassadin took off her arm armor, the rune seemed to sense her intention to hide it, and it trembled slightly to adjust its angle and began to drill into her skin.

Kaisa was frightened and subconsciously wanted to throw the rune away.

However, the rune seemed to be stuck to its hand, squeezing her flesh and blood like clay and embedding itself into her skin bit by bit.

She tried to dig it out with her hands again, but to no avail; the rune still penetrated into her arm.

As the opening was healed, it was completely hidden in Kassa's body and disappeared. The whole process was almost painless.

Kassadin was completely confused. She did want to hide the rune, but she had never thought of hiding it inside her body.

Is this how the runes of this world are used?

Gradually, Kasa began to feel something strange in her body, and breathing became difficult for some reason.

She untied her helmet and a cloud of gas was released.

At first glance, it looks like the moment when you lift the lid of a pot while boiling water, and a large amount of steam comes out from the enclosed space.Mei Xiang has no me, no Yong, no Kong Yong, no Lin You Yong......

Apparently, the power of the runes is affecting Kaisa's body, turning her into a steam queen.

Every time Kassa breathed, a lot of white steam would come out. Her nervousness caused her to breathe quickly, which made her surroundings seem hazy, like a fairy puffing out clouds and mist.

The white mist was translucent, and her breath was also translucent. The light and the mist complemented each other, almost submerging her figure.

"Don't be afraid, adjust your breathing. This white mist seems to be holy mist." The Wild Hunter repeatedly comforted him: "Holy mist is not something to be afraid of. It is just a manifestation of the overflow of rune power. As long as you control it, this white mist will naturally stop appearing."

After listening to the Wild Hunt's explanation, Kassadin's nervousness eased a little.

But she didn't know how to control the rune, so she could only think about it in her mind to make it calm down. If it really had a spirit, it should be able to understand her thoughts.

On the other side, the holy mist spread like dry ice, gradually reaching Ahri.
