Absorb!
Ori heard their shouts loud and clear; it harnessed its greatest strength, exerting a kind of exceptional spiritual will of affinity and control over the elements—all elements! Trusting its siblings'' orders, despite the agonizing pain and heart-throbbing fear that it felt, an extraordinary suction force erupted from its Astral Core!
Every iota of elemental energy present stirred, especially the innate energies within Wei Wuyin, even those thatid dormant after refining his physical cells, especially the Hellfire imbued within Wei Wuyin''s bones and Nirvanic mes emanating from Bai Lin''s condensed drop of Essence Blood. These energies began to flow into Ori''s Elemental Origin Core at a stupendously fast pace. In the blink of an Ascended''s eye, Wei Wuyin was sucked almost entirely dry.
His body was extracted of all itstent and innate water energies, transforming his newly forged physique into a disturbing example of a desated corpse; everything, including his body heat and the icy aura, was siphoned out. In the briefest of times, he resembled a long-deceased corpse; he wasn''t even breathing.
The air in his lungs had been stripped too, and all the ambient atmospheric gas in the room was sucked entirely toward Wei Wuyin. The Original Dawn Pce was heavily fortified by Elemental Forces and proceeded to copse with Wei Wuyin as the epicenter.
The glorious pce couldn''tst one second before all of it was sucked into Wei Wuyin! Fortunately, only Bai Lin and Wei Wuyin were present. Thetter enveloped Wei Wuyin protectively despite her body experiencing an unfathomable degree of difort! Bai Lin was a Fire Phoenix—an literal Embodiment of mes, and her innate energies were being siphoned all the same. Despite her terrifying strength, the desperate suction power of Ori was unstoppable!
It didn''t stop at the Original Dawn Pce!
The beginning of a Ster Region was prompted by an explosion of profoundws, and of thosews beneath the heavens, thews of the Nine Elements were crucial. The Heavens could not do without it! The Mortal Dao thrived on it!
Ori''s desperation and single-mindedness to follow its siblings'' orders were driven to the point of madness as it tapped into atent potential that was terrifically divine!
It was said that Elemental Origin Energy, true Elemental Origin Energy, only existed at the beginnings of a Ster Region and that it could be found no other way. Shortly after a Ster Region''s initial formation, the Elemental Origin Energy would have already divided itself into profound and exceptional proportions, creating Sr Stars,s, Lunar Satellites, and other types of Celestial Bodies. This wasmonly known, and yet it was incorrect.
It was incorrect to say that true Elemental Origin Energy only existed at the ''birth'' of a Ster Region; it always existed because it was the foundation by which the Ster Region thrived!
Ori''s suction began to spread out to lengths that went far beyond what Wei Wuyin''s Spiritual Sense could reach. As if summoned by an Imperial Edict, the Elemental Origin Energy of the Deste Dra Ster Region, every ounce of it, began to heed Ori''s call! EVERY LAST BIT!
"Kree?!" Bai Lin''s body quivered as she felt the Dark Void warp, twist, and distort until signs of a vortex of white mist began to form with her at the center. Her heart raced as she witnessed a magical sight. Twinkling lights manifested within the white mist, resembling the starry night skies she would often see from a''s surface, and they flowed around her beautifully.
The Tiangou''s ears twitched slightly, but she remainedrgely unbothered, currently in a state of deep hibernation. However, except for that tiny movement, the Star-Devourer was unaffected by the surging white mist that came from millions of miles in every direction, all gathering into a single location—Wei Wuyin!
The purest energies within the deepest folds of the Dark Void began to appear. If a Mystic Overlord had seen this phenomenon, they would be gawking without words!
The heavens governed manyws, and thesews were adapted into various Daos seamlessly. One of thesews, one of the greatest and most essentialws used by the Mortal, Mystic, and Immortal Daos equally, was none other than the Laws of the Elements. This was not a singlew but a collection ofws that included but were not limited to, the four basic elements—Water, Earth, Wind, and Fire, and the five advanced elements—Metal, Lightning, Wood, Magma, and Ice. Additionally, there was Light, Darkness, Decay, Rejuvenation, and many, many others.
Even the War Dao included the Laws of the Elements within itself.
However, these collections of Laws were varied, and while they could beprehended individually, they weren''t what Ori was calling upon at this moment. Ori was calling upon the Law that allowed those varied Laws to merge, to have many variations, endless permutations, and countless transformations—the Law of Origin!
It was one of the most abstruse Laws in existence, nearly impossible toe into contact with. However, at this very moment, Ori was doing so!
"What''s happening?" King asked as it spun with Omega Saber Light, primed to strike.
Eden was simrly awed by the events happening. It was as if Ori was absorbing, no, as if the entire Deste Dra Ster Region''s innate energies were rushing toward Wei Wuyin out of their own will. "This…? Do you remember this?" Eden asked instead, reveling in thetent will permeating the Ster Region.
"..." King quietly sensed, and then a ssh of saber lightter, it shockingly said: "Origin State?"
Eden''s Astral Core spun as if nodding, "Origin State! It reminds me of how it felt while we were transforming, this feeling of unity in Spirit."
"But…but it''s in everything? Unity of the world?" King was, for the first time, extremely stunned by this discovery. During their Sky Ruler Astral Tribtion, they had transformed from Zenith Mortal State to Zenith Origin State. This waster discovered to be the keyponent to reach the Heavenly Saint Phase of the Mystic Ascendant Realm, but they had done sorgely out of Ori''s urging of condensing the Sky-World Lightning! It was the start of their reckless antics to manipte the Astral Tribtions for their benefit!
If Wei Wuyin knew who was responsible, he wouldn''t know whether to praise or berate, surely not whether tough or cry, as the siblings took equal me.
"Not all of it," Eden rified in awe.
"I can feel Ori''s Spiritual Aura everywhere!" King remarked. By now, an absolutely monstrous amount of energy had gathered around Ori, spinning into a vortex no bigger than thirty meters. Wisps of pure white energy flowed after it spun a certain number of times as if expelling out all the impurities.
"Orianna''s Spiritual Aura?" Eden questioned, confused. Then, it suddenly shone a glow of seven-colored light. "Divine! It''s the Divine Core!" Unlike King, who ''evolved'', Ori was still a Divine Soul, and this characteristic allowed it to connect its Spiritual Attributes perfectly with its other qualities, and it seemed to be deeply connected to its Origin State, spreading to all its core powers!
To put it simply, Ori''s Divine Soul perfectly connected its Origin State and Elemental Origin Intent, producing this event to which the entire world was reacting! To which the entire world answered its call!
It only took three minutes.
The entire Deste Dra Ster Region had vanished; it became a dead region without anything but Chaos Mana and could no longer be officially ssified as a Ster Region! Even those hidden Sr Stars undergoing the Star Ascension, awaiting their chances to be born in this region, began to move away to a proper Ster Region by the heavens.
The Mortal Dao, Mystic Dao, and Immortal Dao abandoned it.
Shockingly, the Tiangou grew increasingly rxed. Her breathing steadier and less forceful. Bai Lin simrly felt strange. She didn''t know how to describe it.
While this was happening, Wei Wuyin was writhing in pain, but not waiting to be saved! Moreover, this wasn''t something his Astral Souls could save him from. His Primary and Secondary Minds were in extreme agony, and the only way to survive could be described in a single word: Persevere!
Stay alive!
Just stay alive!
Wei Wuyin''s Primary Mind manifested into a solid form, shivering in and out as if on the verge of inevitable copse, but with gritted teeth and shocking mental strength, he epted the agonizing, soul-rending pain and strode towards his Second Mind with heavy steps that shook his Sea of Consciousness. Eden was currently reinforcing it, so he had some stability, and he used this to approach the growing mass that was his Second Mind.
In its current state, his Second Mind could be described as having acquired a type of Mental Cancer, an amalgamation of stressed mental energies that attacked or was attacked by the standardized, healthy mental energy. It was a fierce battle of trying to either survive the pain or lose oneself to it.
Wei Wuyin soon trudged over and ced his hand on the mass that had already grown to cover half his Sea of Consciousness. Wei Wuyin''s n had ingeniously bypassed the Third Cmity''s rule, but it caused his Second Mind to suffer all this unfathomably horrific pain. It was enough to break any mortal mind.
The fact that his Second Mind was still present was evidence of his abnormally terrifying willpower and mental strength that it inherited.
"Give. It. To. Me!" Wei Wuyin cried out, exerting his mental strength to extract the cancerous portions of mental energy from his Second Mind. Of course, there was some resistance from his Second Mind; thest trace of conscious will knew that this action would bring immense damage to Wei Wuyin.
"GIVE IT!" Wei Wuyin''s shout boomed throughout his Sea of Consciousness. He didn''t have time to exin, but he had devised the Neo-Dawn Paragon-Forging Pill for this exact reason! So that he would never be crippled again! If this continued, his Second Mind would be permanently disabled, if not destroy itself entirely. It knew that mental surgery was impossible! If it could be likened to real life, the Second Mind had terminal cancer across 99% of its body!
"...!" The amalgamation of mental energies twisted and hesitated for a while until Wei Wuyin wed at it viciously, and then using itsst ounce of remaining strength, it began to transfer the experiences to Wei Wuyin! It had to trust itself!
"..." Wei Wuyin closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and epted all the cancerous mental energy into his Primary Mind''s Incarnation, and then sat down and stayedpletely quiet.
Right now, Wei Wuyin was experiencing Hell—quite literally. The slicing pain from the de of Mountains and the soul-searing heat of Hellfire were all funneling into his mind.
Wei Wuyin didn''t try to resist; Wei Wuyin didn''t try to erase it; Wei Wuyin epted it all!
The countless neurons within his brain were hyperactive, reflecting every ounce of the pain that could make one wish for death! The desated, iling limbs of Wei Wuyin kept going, but despite the horrific experience, the inexhaustible eternity of his newfound physique was unable to be broken!
While Wei Wuyin was experiencing such torture, Ori was undergoing its own experience!
A Law Seed had formed!
And its Astral Soul was transforming!
Currently, its Astral Core was surrounded by white mes that contained endless starry light, all its cracks had healed, and it no longer trembled!
