Chapter 257 Magical Space (1)
As their gazes met, the neck of the strange life snake shrank. Its head and neck pulled back into the hole, and its entire body quickly retreated.
Escaping!
Just like the strange little lifeforms, this weird lifeform also chose to escape immediately after discovering Su Jingxing. However, as soon as it ran, strings of strange little lifeforms that passed through the hole and arrived in the real world immediately stopped flowing in.
With this scene, how could Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul still not understand this situation?
The cause, the true source of people self-combusting once their emotions fluctuated violently, was most likely this strange lifeform.
Were all those strange little lifeforms brought about by this weird lifeform? Or released by it?!
At this thought, Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul condensed the Heaven Origin Saber and quickly slashed out three times. The attacks passed through the hole and probed for possible traps while chasing after the weird lifeform.
Then, the Essence Soul shuttled and passed through the hole.
Su Jingxing had seen the other side of the hole before. It wasn’t another world, but more like an independent space.
Therefore, Su Jingxing wasn’t afraid and quickly moved in.
The moment the Essence Soul passed through the hole, it was as if it had passed through a thin membrane and arrived in a strange space.
There were no sun, moon, or stars above this space. There was only an endless void. The higher one went, the darker it became.
It was the same everywhere, darkness and darkness.
However, the ground beneath its feet was extremely transparent like a glass pathway.
Through the glass membrane, Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul saw a map.
The Yu Nation’s mountains and rivers, the map of the 18 prefectures!
A geography of the 18 prefectures that was several times smaller. All the details could be clearly seen!
It would be a lie to say that Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul wasn’t surprised to see this “map”.
However, the strange lifeform that was escaping had yet to be dealt with. Without taking a second look, he suppressed the shock in his heart and quickly condensed the Heaven Origin Saber. Chasing after the strange lifeform that had run a distance away, it shot out. The Heaven Origin Saber was used as a throwing dagger to block its way.
The effect was not bad. With a slash of the saber, it struck the strange lifeform. This weird creature, which looked 70% like an ostrich, had a drainage pipe organ on both sides. From time to time, strange little lifeforms would be sprayed out.
The case was solved!
The strange little lifeforms that invaded the four prefectures of the Yu Nation and caused people to self-combust were released by this weird creature that resembled an ostrich!
The spot that was struck by the Heaven Origin Saber was the ostrich creature’s butt.
The ostrich creature let out a strange scream. Its voice was ear-piercing and extremely penetrative, targeting the soul.
Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul shook. Sensing danger, he decisively condensed a second and third saber slash.
The target was the ostrich’s neck and head!
Releasing it from a distance, it quickly shuttled through the air. Just as the second strike was about to hit, the ostrich’s neck shook and it dodged. The third strike was slightly better. It brushed past its head and disappeared into the darkness in the distance.
This brush brought away the ostrich’s scalp, causing it to scream even louder. Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul trembled even more violently.
He forcefully endured it and quickly condensed the fourth and fifth saber moves.
This time, the fourth strike struck the neck, and the fifth strike missed.
The Heaven Origin Saber passed through the creature’s neck and quickly cut off a small part of it.
The ostrich creatures’s head and body successfully separated and fell to the ground that looked like a “glass membrane”.
The scream stopped, and its body trembled.
Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul no longer shook. It increased its speed and chased after it. It arrived beside the ostrich creature and looked down at this strange life form.
Its head and body were separated, but the ostrich creature was not dead. Its pitch-black eyes were fixed on Su Jingxing.
“There’s no need to look at me. It’s useless.”
Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul condensed the Heaven Origin Saber and stabbed at the head of the ostrich creature.
Pu!
The ostrich creature’s head turned into a cloud of mist and disappeared. Its trembling body slowly turned into a pale purple light orb. It was the size of an egg and floated in midair.
Looking at the light orb, his Essence Soul subconsciously sucked in a breath.
I want to eat it!
This light orb could be eaten, and there were benefits to doing so!
The subconsciousness of the Essence Soul surprised Su Jingxing.
He looked at the strange little lifeforms that had scattered. After the ostrich creature’s head dissipated, they also turned into sparks and disappeared. After pondering for a moment, he decided to give it a try. He wrapped his soul power around the pale purple light orb and slowly approached.
Swish! Swish!
There was no need to open his mouth to swallow it. When the pale purple light orb was half an inch away from the Essence Soul, the Essence Soul body automatically released a absorption force, controlling the pale purple light orb and quickly absorbing it.
As if it was absorbing water, large amounts of mysterious power entered the Essence Soul’s body to replenish its exhaustion from before and increase its soul power greatly.
Before long, the pale purple light orb was completely absorbed and destroyed.
Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul body had received sufficient replenishment and was even stronger than before.
Su Jingxing was still figuring out what the Essence Soul’s ability was. Whether it was powerful or not was also being tested.
But overall, it was still related to soul power. The stronger the soul power, the more agile the Essence Soul was.
As for the exact details, he had to slowly get used to them.
At this moment, Su Jingxing controlled the Essence Soul body to walk slowly in this magical space. Above its head was the void, surrounded by darkness, and beneath its feet was the light blue Yu Nation!
The location of each of the 18 prefectures of the Yu Nation, which had shrunk several times, was clearly displayed.
Miraculously, whichever prefecture Su Jing moved to, the area where the residence was located became “lit up”.
It was like an automatic light that would turn on when someone appeared.
