Transmigrating Into a Fantasy World: Signing in During Pregnancy, Reaching the Summit with My Childhood Sweetheart

216: Chapter 216: The Leyline Rupture and the First Awakening of the Star CoreA terrifying roar from deep within the earth’s Core, like the bellow of a primordial beast, instantly shook the entire Ancient Fire Path! Following closely behind was a physical shockwave of destructive energy!

Rumble—!!!

It was no longer just a heatwave, but a viscous, nearly liquid torrent of flame imbued with endless rage and a localized will of madness, surging out from the depths of the mine! Wherever it passed, the hard rock walls melted and vaporized like candle wax, and the space itself was warped and distorted by the extreme heat!

This was no longer a trial; it was a natural disaster! It was a terrifying venting of the violent power that the Primordial Fire Eye had accumulated over countless ages!

“Full defense!”

Nangong Xuan’s pupils constricted. He gave a sharp shout, holding nothing back! The Nirvana Sword Domain instantly expanded to its limit, and the grey Sword Intent condensed with unprecedented intensity, forming an indestructible barrier across the front of the trio! Within the Sword Intent, the chaotic crimson glow produced after devouring a massive amount of Fire Fiend Qi circulated wildly, attempting to annihilate and decompose the oncoming destructive energy.

Su Muxue’s face turned pale. She bit the tip of her tongue and sprayed essence blood onto the moon wheel! The moon wheel let out a clear, mournful cry as the cold lunar radiance surged, transforming into a thick ice wall condensed with countless frost runes, reinforcing the Nirvana Sword Domain layer by layer! This was the ultimate manifestation of Taiyin Star Power, the strongest defense she could muster at this moment!

Zi Linger let out a scream, not of fear, but of determination! She slammed her hands onto the scorching ground, ignoring the violent backlash of the surging geothermal Fire Fiend Qi against her Wood Spirit Origin, and poured all of her Life Force into the ground without reservation! The emerald light briefly eclipsed the crimson as countless ancient plant roots, long dead and calcined for ten thousand years, were forcibly awakened. Letting out a final wail, they burst through the rock layers and frantically wove together into a massive wooden shield burning with the flame of life, bracing at the very front!

The triple defense was completed in an instant!

The next moment, the destructive torrent of flames arrived with a crash!

The first to make contact was the Life Shield! Sss—!!! Like a red-hot iron plunged into ice water, a piercing vaporization sound rang out! The incredibly tough wooden shield lasted for less than half a breath before it charred, carbonized, and disintegrated at a visible rate! Zi Linger felt as if she had been hit by a heavy blow and spat out a large mouthful of blood, which evaporated before hitting the ground. She collapsed, her Life Force instantly dimming!

The torrent of flames did not pause, slamming hard against the Taiyin ice wall! Boom!!! Extreme cold and extreme heat collided violently! A deafening roar and a destructive turbulence of energy erupted! The ice wall shook violently, and countless runes flickered in and out of existence. Large sections of ice vaporized instantly, only to be constantly repaired and reinforced by the Taiyin Star Power Su Muxue desperately outputted! Her face was as white as paper, blood seeping from her seven orifices, and her body swayed—she had clearly reached her limit!

The momentum of the flame torrent was finally slowed slightly, but its Core—the part as viscous as pulp and imbued with a mad will—penetrated the weakened ice wall and slammed hard into the final Nirvana Sword Domain!

Buzz—!!!

Nangong Xuan’s body shook violently, as if he had been hit head-on by a billion-pound hammer! The Nirvana Sword Domain groaned under the strain, and the grey Sword Intent circulated wildly, annihilating the incoming energy, but the power was too vast and violent, far exceeding the limit of what he could annihilate!

The Sword Domain was pushed back until it was almost pressed against the three of them! Nangong Xuan held on desperately, the skin between his thumb and forefinger splitting as blood stained the sword hilt. The Meridians in his body felt as if they were being scorched by fire, and the four star keys rotated wildly at an unprecedented speed, even emitting faint cracking sounds! The nirvana true seal fragment vibrated violently, barely maintaining the integrity of the Domain!
