……

Under the influence of an inexplicable attraction, the earth spirit slowly crawled towards the earthy yellow altar.

Thundered!

He sat down in the center of the altar, as if he had lost all his strength.

His shoulders drooped excesses, and his languishing head squeezed into a cone.

And it's in the process.

A lot of critters walked in his direction.

Centered on the spirit of the earth.

The pale yellow light curtain enveloped everything, and the small animals in the dream realm of the hills walked in a daze, and in a short time, the group of small animals in the forefront had already come to the front of the vertical pupils.

The three Matthew floated in the air.

What they saw at this moment was that under the altar, many blue-gray claws appeared silently.

Red sparks and powder fell from the claws.

That was Matthew's familiar Claw of Ashes!

Followed by.

Four huge phantoms appeared in the sky.

This is also an old acquaintance of Matthew.

They are the Ash Lords from the Void.

And beneath the earth, the color of the deep valley aisle turned pitch black, and an aura very similar to the mark of the dead spread, and the power of the ashes poured out like a fountain, instantly covering the entire area!

This scene is extremely strange.

The critters were at a loss for what it was.

They seem to be still immersed in the longing of their imminent journey to a brave new world.

Suddenly.

The eye between the Earth Spirit's chest and abdomen split further, turning into an extremely narrow portal.

Behind the portal, however, there is not much fertile land.

It's a void of darkness and a sticky dead silence!

A strong warning came over the trio.

Matthew took a deep breath, knowing that this was the crack leading to the Void World.

I saw that the souls of nature, who were unconscious, were lining up to walk towards the crack.

Matthew couldn't help but shout:

"Earth Spirit!"

"Let's see what's on your belly!?"

When the Earth Spirit heard this, its originally drooping head moved slightly.

He glanced down, then looked up and smiled:

"That's a new world of abundance, don't you see?"

"There are grasslands full of cattle and sheep, plains flowing with honey and milk, majestic snow-capped mountains, and lakes where swans dance, do you want to go with them?"

Matthew was silent.

Su Ya said calmly:

"It's useless, he's completely addicted to sweet dreams now, and everything he sees is full of flowers."

said.

She suddenly shuddered, and a slight look of fear appeared on her face.

Matthew noticed that a similar situation was happening with Sylvia on the left.

"It's so cold......"

The silver dragon girl muttered to herself.

She seemed to feel the eternal chill of the Void in advance.

Matthew knows.

This is because the two of them are more sensitive, and they can perceive the coldness and horror of the Void World many steps in advance.

For anyone who lives in the material realm.

Sinking into the void is almost a greater fear than death.

The other party obviously didn't use illusions.

But the Earth Spirits and the Nature Spirits here are unaware, indicating that the power of Yucruz has penetrated this place to a deep level.

Not to mention the spirit of the earth.

It's even possible that the entire Hill Dream has been completely corroded!

"According to the current trend, the spirit of the earth will be completely torn apart, becoming a rift between the hill dream realm and the void world, and after absorbing more power and nutrients, this rift will become bigger and bigger, and eventually swallow the hill dream realm, and then affect the main material realm!"

Matthew made a quick judgment:

"We must close that crack immediately!"

However, Su Ya shook her head:

"We can't do it, the power of the Void is too terrifying, not to mention that the Hill Dream has become a part of the Traces of the Dead, and anyone who comes close to that rift may be affected by the power of the Ashes."

"The Hill Dream has completely decayed, and it will be reduced to the nourishment of Eucluz."

"I'm afraid we're going to have to get out of here."

Sylvia rarely did not refute Suya.

She just grabbed Matthew's hand and whispered solemnly:

"If I want to run away for a while, don't refuse, because that must be the most dangerous time."

Matthew took a deep breath.

It was at this time.

Suddenly the wails of the little animals came from the edge of the crack—

As they approached the crack, the bodies of several wild wolves were suddenly ignited by a powerful force.

The ashes burned quickly.

The wolf's body was soon incinerated to ashes.

But it's in the process.

They still howled hysterically.

And with more and more small animals approaching the soul of nature.

More screams rang out.

These screams seemed to awaken some of the earth spirits.

He seemed to wake up from a long dream, and looked around a little blankly:

"What's going on?"

Then he rubbed his eyes vigorously and looked in the direction of his stomach.

Doubts were written all over his face:

"Why can't I see clearly?"

"Why can't I see clearly?"

"What is it? Isn't it a gateway to a new world? ”

The Earth Spirit said as he pulled his stomach with two bear paws a little anxiously.

He didn't have any scruples about his movements, and soon, even his own intestines were dragged outside!

But the crack was untouched.

On the contrary, it continues to expand.

"Be quiet, my child."

"It's all a necessary ritual to travel to the New World."

The gentle voice said.

The Earth Spirit suddenly became a little muddy again.

Can be immediately followed.

More animal cries rang out.

These cries grew louder and louder each time, and they completely woke up the spirit of the earth!

"Huh?"

"Who?"

Ucruz's voice seemed to be confused.

Su Ya also grabbed Matthew's hand at this moment:

"There are others here!"

However, the man hiding in the shadows has not yet been discovered.

The Earth Spirit suddenly exclaimed:

"What are you doing?"

"Why are you doing this?!"

"How can you kill them? They're pitiful enough! ”

He watched in horror as the animals kept dying in front of him.

His pupils contracted violently, as if he had suddenly seen the truth!

"This is not a new world, this is not a new world!"

He slapped the crack in his chest and abdomen helplessly, and his voice gradually changed to crying:

"This is the endless void of destruction, this is the saddest fate of all things!"

"Wow! Plilando, why are you lying to me?! ”

Yucruz's gentle voice rang out again:

"I didn't lie to you, I promised to take you to the new world, and I'm doing the same."

"When the inhabitants of the material realm enter the great new world of the void, they must abandon their original bodies and be completely transformed into spiritual light."

"It's a necessary ritual to travel to the New World, everyone needs to complete, they come first, you're the last."

The spirit of the earth cried out:

"No, no, no!"

"I don't want to go to that world, and my friends don't want to go to the Void!"

Yucruz's voice remained calm:

"You fragile creatures of the material realm like to suddenly reverse a big decision after making it."

"It's a pity that it's useless, you have become my believer, you have become my anchor, you promised me to be a bridge between the material world and the new world, you promised me to open the door to the new century with your own hands, you must do this."

Between words.

The rift in the Earth Spirit's belly grew wider.

An icy storm blew in from the void.

Suddenly.

Nearly half of the critters on the altar were blown to ashes by the storm!

"No, no, no, don't!"

See this scene.

The spirit of the earth sat on the altar and wailed.

He squeezed the crack with his two paws, and shouted as he squeezed him:

"I regret it!"

"I regret it!"

Uclus's mood did not fluctuate, but there was a hint of mockery:

"Hehe, how can this kind of thing be reversed?"

"Well, ...... you?"

It was in that moment.

The symbol of the Nursery's Lotus appears again above the head of the Earth Spirit.

He was still shaking his head and pounding his chest:

"I regretted it! I regretted it! ”

"I don't believe in Plilando anymore! I don't want to travel to the New World anymore! ”

"Whether you're Plilando or Ucluz, get out of here!"

Poof.

The symbol of the Lotus of the Nursery was silently extinguished.

The shadow of the dead beneath the altar slowly faded as well.

And the four Ash Lords and countless Ash Claws above it suddenly disappeared!

Almost in a matter of seconds.

The power of the void in the hill dream realm has converged by more than 8 percent!

The rest.

Only the crack in the belly of the Earth Spirit!

Matthew watched in amazement.

data bar.

……

"Hint: Bell, the fallen Earth Spirit, has unleashed the racial ability "Backtracking".

Backtracking: As a bear who has been dreaming in the hills since ancient times, Bell can play tricks on any contract or promise.

But every time you cheat, it will cost Bell a certain amount of life."

……

Is that okay?

Matthew was taken aback.

"No wonder the teacher called him Laipi Bear, this thing can really Laipi!"

He slapped his thigh, and then he realized that he really didn't call the wrong nickname!

Ucruz is probably also confused.

The contract he had signed with the Earth Spirit and the power implanted in the latter's body had all been driven back to the Void.

Except for the ever-expanding crack!

Whew!

There are constant storms blowing out of the void.

The terrifying power of ash struck from it.

Took most of the lives near the rift.

"Stay away from me!"

The Earth Spirit roared loudly.

The animals scattered and fled.

He tried hard to squeeze the crack, but it was slowly expanding.

Present.

The Earth Spirit said to Matthew with tears in his eyes:

"Save them."

"They are innocent!"

As he spoke, he wiped his tears, hesitated for a moment, and then said:

"If you can, save me, too, woo......"

Su Ya stared at the crack with a cold gaze:

"Can't be saved!"

"This crack has become one with your body, and if you want to close it, you have to die."

The Earth Spirit was stunned for a moment, and then silently wiped away his tears:

"Then let me die."

"Please take away as many innocent animals as possible, I am willing to be killed by you, as long as this rift can be closed, I am willing to do anything."

Su Ya didn't say anything.

But a hint of regret flashed in her eyes.

Sylvia shook her head:

"There's no way we can take these souls of nature, because they also have power from the ashes in them, and it will pollute our dreams."

"You should be able to understand this, too, as a soul of nature."

The Earth Spirit looked depressed.

He suddenly thumped his thigh hard:

"Damn......"

"Why is this happening? If only the seeds of the Holy Oak were still there, it could shield the pollution from the Void and take away these innocents. ”

Seeds of the Holy Oak Tree?

Matthew was slightly stunned.

Suddenly, he felt that somewhere in his magic bag was getting hot.

Matthew took it out of it, and the bag of Holy Oak seeds he had gotten from Jeff!

He had originally kept this thing in the Sanctuary of Life, but when he came to the Watcher's Heights, Matthew had originally considered returning it to the Earth Society, so he took it with him.

I didn't expect it to come in handy!

"Yes, yes, that's it!"

The Earth Spirit became so agitated that he didn't even ask Matthew how he got the seeds, but said quickly:

"Activate the oak realm and inject a little mana into it, and the inside of these seeds will form tiny natural dreams, which are not yet ripe, but can be used to house my friends."

"The seeds of the Holy Oak have a powerful purifying power, and the power of the ashes on their bodies will not be transmitted because of this."

"Please......"

didn't wait for the Earth Spirit to finish.

Matthew had already done so.

He also had compassion for the innocent people who were implicated.

The Oak Tree Field activates instantly.

between the flow of mana.

Matthew could clearly feel one mini-world after another, similar to storage space, forming in the seed bag.

"Come on in."

Matthew snapped.

The next second.

The small animals that were originally running around poured into these mini-worlds at a rapid pace.

After 15 seconds.

The animals all ran into the seed bag in Matthew's hand!

……

"Hint: You have contained 87 primary nature spirits and over 1,000 critters from the seeds of the Holy Oak.

This triggers a resonance between the oak tree and the earth, does it explore deeper into the realm?"

……

Matthew chose no.

Now is not the time to explore the realm.

He held the seed bag in his hand, and only felt that his palm was bulging, and an unprecedented realization surged in his chest.

"You actually have the seed of the Holy Oak Tree?"

Sylvia's eyes widened:

"Every seed here has the opportunity to form a new natural dream!"

Su Ya also showed a surprised expression.

But soon she calmed down:

"The crack is still growing, and even if Rypi Bear is captured, it will be difficult for us to destroy it."

"According to my estimates, it would take at least a strength close to the strength of a legendary Shaping spell to destroy it instantly."

"And it must be a high-density spell, it can't take effect slowly or intermittently!"

The silver dragon girl frowned:

"There are some legendary scrolls in my lair, but it's a pity that I didn't bring any of them with me in a hurry this time!"

Su Ya looked at Matthew:

"None of the spells you have at your disposal can cover and tear cracks in an instant, right?"

"Maybe you'll have to ask another mage for help."

Matthew looked thoughtful.

It was at this time.

The Spirit of the Earth sighed and said:

"It's too late!"

"I could feel the force with which he was tearing at me, I was getting weak, my body was being reoccupied by him, and in three minutes at most, my whole being could be part of this crack."

"Please, find a way to kill me, woo-woo-woo......!"

As he spoke, he was wiping away tears again.

This action, combined with his natural expression that makes people feel aggrieved when they look at it, is really sad and funny at the same time.

"My spells really can't destroy this rift."

Matthew groaned.

The spell density of the Deadly Scissors is not high enough, and even the third instant burst can hardly be said to destroy the rift directly.

"So what are you waiting for?"

"Let's run! Hold my hand, and I can take you through space and out of this dangerous place in an instant! ”

Sylvia said nervously.

Matthew raised his hand:

"Wait."

"But I remember a friend who gave me a gift, and it might help."

said.

He pulled out an egg-shaped object from the depths of the Mystic Bag.

"What kind of egg is this?"

Sylvia asked curiously.

Matthew replied:

"It's a bomb."

The silver dragon girl looked dazed:

"What kind of egg is a bomb?"

Su Ya glanced at her with disdain:

"It's a maulculor's weapon, not some kind of creature's egg."

Sylvia seemed intrigued by the thing, reaching out and stroking the bomb's exterior:

"Is it a weapon? Then it should have its own name, right? ”

Matthew nodded:

"World Peace."

Su Ya's eyelids jumped, as if she wanted to say something, but finally held back.

Sylvia exclaimed:

"Wizards like to name things in reverse, don't they?"

Matthew didn't answer her.

He seized the time to hold the world peace and cautiously approached the spirit of the earth.

"Hold it, remember not to get too close to that rift, if it is sucked into the Void World, it will be over."

said.

He dropped the bomb from afar.

The Earth Spirit grabbed the bomb in a daze, and he looked at Matthew in disbelief:

"You chose to believe me?"

"What if I change my mind and don't want to die?"

Matthew did not answer this question.

He just calmly stared into the eyes of the Earth Spirit:

"Do you have any last words?"

The Earth Spirit held the bomb and thought for a moment, then grinned:

"I grow a lot of devil's spicy strawberries in the valley south of Bell Mountain, and the climate there is like spring all year round, which is very suitable for the growth of this kind of strawberry, and you must go and try it when you have time."

"Nothing else, good luck to you."

said.

He tilted his head away in fear, trying to stay away from the bomb.

Matthew nodded slightly.

The next second.

A bomb identical to the Earth Spirit appeared in his hand.

In the astonished gaze of the Earth Spirit.

Matthew slammed the real bomb into the crack.

The next second.

He took the initiative to shake Sylvia's hand:

"Let's go!"

Click.

He used his mouth to bite the button of the remote control.

Because the other hand grabbed Su Ya.

Whoosh!

The image in front of me began to distort.

A terrifying force of destruction erupted from above the altar.

Then came the sound of a tsunami of mountains roaring and a tsunami.

The figures of the three disappeared into the dream in an instant.

The flames burned everything in a flash!

It was in that moment.

In the palace of wisdom in Cloud City.

A short, flat-chested girl who was mixing alchemical potions suddenly stopped.

She squinted her eyes and looked up, only to see that the light on the helmet's antenna had suddenly turned a flickering crimson!

At first.

She was confused for a moment.

It took a long time for her to suddenly realize:

"Oh, the gift for Matthew!"

A happy expression immediately appeared on her face:

"That's good."

"It seems that the world has become a little more peaceful again......"
