My construction materials are weird

In the dim and deep underground cave, an eerie red light emanated, creating an atmosphere of tranquility.

At a height of five meters from the cave floor, a slight ripple suddenly appeared, as if space itself had been torn open.

A gnarled root extended from the opening, existing in a state between life and death, appearing both alive and filled with deathly energy, making it seem incredibly mystical.

The ripple and the energy from the spatial tear awakened the cave's master.

The strange zombie lying in the coffin opened its scarlet eyes, accompanied by a dense, crimson blood aura that quickly enveloped the gnarled root.

But a miraculous scene unfolded. This crimson blood aura, which had caused the Capo tribe so much suffering and forced Xuanhuang to deal with it with all his might,

had absolutely no effect this time. The gnarled root remained completely unaffected, despite being enveloped by the crimson aura, which couldn't harm it in the slightest.

On the contrary, the crimson aura was being converted from dense death energy into vibrant life force by the gnarled root's life-and-death conversion process, and then rapidly refined and absorbed.

"Roar!"

The volatile strange zombie instinctively flew into a rage because, this time, it clearly sensed the crisis of death.

This seemingly insignificant gnarled root was constantly absorbing its energy, causing irreversible and continuous damage.

Having reached the third order, each strange entity's rules were filled with unique true meaning, fused with Xuanhuang's will, similar to flesh and blood magic power.

This meant that every attack was infused with true meaning, and to break through such an attack, one first needed to decipher the true meaning within.

Without resolving the true meaning, it was impossible to completely destroy the strange entity's attack.

This was why the stronger the strange entity, the more difficult it was to deal with.

But this time, the gnarled root was not only absorbing its crimson blood aura but also irreversibly refining the rules and true meaning within the aura.

Therefore, the strange zombie instinctively became agitated.

"Clang!" "Rumble!"

The strange zombie instantly levitated, standing upright, the chains clanging loudly, preventing it from breaking free.

Accompanying this was green fur gathered into a sphere, with a dark, black mouth opening on the sphere.

Together with the crimson blood aura, they attacked the gnarled root. Driven by the strange zombie, the chains and coffin were also instantly activated, weakening the strange zombie's attack but strengthening its defense.

As for the attack, the gnarled root had absolutely no qualms, as this attack couldn't break its defense.

It was the root of the Jianmu tree that had pierced through the void. This place was also a secret realm, merely a fragmented secret realm fused with Blue Star.

The previous secret realm had formed the current strange zombie's domain.

The domain was also a space, and as long as it was space, as long as the space's defense was weak, or if it was masterless and without defensive measures, it would be breached by the Jianmu tree.

The large mouth formed by the gathered green fur continuously gnawed at the Jianmu tree's roots, but with almost no effect.

Not to mention that its power was weakened by half by the chains and coffin, even at its peak, it would only have the strength of the early third order, and with the strange zombie's domain enhancement, it would at most have the power of the mid-third order.

While the Jianmu tree currently possessed the genuine strength of the late third order, without any enhancements.

It had intended to launch a sneak attack, but it had clearly underestimated the intelligence of zombie-type strange entities. These strange entities were mutations of the deceased and should be even more intelligent.

Besides being awakened by violating its strange rules, even slight injuries and fluctuations could awaken it.

Now that it was awake, Xuanhuang secretly waved his hand, no need to worry anymore, suppress it with all your strength.

"Boom!" A massive shattering sound.

The Jianmu tree, which had initially been a single root, suddenly sent countless roots piercing through the void, instantly heading towards the strange zombie, enveloping the struggling strange zombie in an instant.

"Roar, roar!"

Mountains crumbled and the earth shook.

Therefore, he no longer concealed himself and directly used the Heavenly Will to bless the Jianmu tree, first severing its limbs, removing the strange zombie's chain restraints, and then throwing it into the Ruin Return world.

"Crack!" Upon Xuanhuang's command.

The Jianmu tree's roots binding the strange zombie's limbs began to twist violently, emitting intense energy fluctuations, converting between life and death energies.

Gradually dissolving the strange zombie's limbs, before long, the strange zombie's withered flesh and blood on its limbs were refined and dissolved, leaving only red bones.

During this process, it was accompanied by the enhancement of the chains and coffin.

In other words, what the Jianmu tree was currently refining and dissolving was not only the strange zombie's power but also the enhancement of the chains and coffin.

But even so, the Jianmu tree blessed by Xuanhuang's Heavenly Will was already at the invincible stage of the third order.

Even if the coffin and chains were both at the late third order, and their resonance was even stronger, they would still find it difficult to resist the invincible Jianmu tree.

"Crack!" The strange zombie's right hand was severed.

A large strange zombie palm was severed and fell to the ground, surprisingly standing upright and trying to escape, wanting to get away from this place.

Xuanhuang, who was closely watching, would never let it succeed. A mass of black shadow followed like a shadow.

Like countless black tentacles, dragging the strange hand that wanted to escape, forcibly pulling it into Xuanhuang's Ruin Return small world.

As soon as it entered, it was suppressed by the white divine soul, instantly losing all its power.

Xuanhuang really didn't expect that the strange zombie could live independently even when split.

"Crack!" Another ear-piercing sound came.

One of the strange zombie's feet was dissolved and severed by the Jianmu tree, and as soon as it broke free, a mass of shadow appeared, dragging the strange foot to prevent it from escaping.

To be honest, this scene would make those who didn't know think that Xuanhuang was the most evil strange entity.

He had all kinds of methods, while the strange zombie was like a pitiful weakling being ravaged by an evil strongman.

After severing one hand and one foot of the strange zombie, Xuanhuang could feel the strange zombie's resistance rapidly weakening.

This was due to both the weakening from losing two major entities and the weakening of the chains and coffin's enhancement.

The thing Xuanhuang didn't want to see didn't happen.

That was, the Jianmu tree weakening the strange zombie didn't cause the chains and coffin to weaken along with it. If the coffin and chains were also weakened, Xuanhuang's plan would fall through.

He wanted to obtain the chains and coffin completely.

These two were very magical, not because they were strong, but because of their mystical nature.

The mystical point was that the third-order ones were not strange entities.

Such third-order mystical entities should have become strange entities, but for some reason, they were only third-order materials and had not formed strange consciousness.

There must be something fishy about this, and they were more like natural magic tools.

Magic tools without strange transformation were rare in this era of strange revival.

Of course, it might also be a kind of creation method, and it was unknown whether they would become stronger as the strange zombie became stronger.

If that was the case, it would be a bit troublesome.

After all, once this symbiotic relationship was broken, it would be difficult to restore. To restore them, a new symbiotic relationship would need to be found.

In addition, the Bagua teleportation array had not been damaged, which was the point Xuanhuang valued most.

He also had the ability to teleport, which was not special.

What was special was that it could allow alien races from the starry sky to continuously teleport over, which was equivalent to a door to enter Blue Star. As long as the door was under his control, the harvest would still be behind.

"Crack!"

Another arm was severed, and Xuanhuang continued to use the shadow to drag it into the Ruin Return world for suppression.

The current strange zombie was extremely miserable. Its entire body was wrapped in Jianmu tree roots, constantly dissolving and refining it. Its crimson blood aura currently only had a thin layer left.

And the sphere formed by green fur was even more dilapidated, having been devoured by eighty percent, not even able to gather a complete mouth.

Here comes the key point: in a moment, Jianmu will sever the last limb of the Cursed Corpse. We need to quickly drag it into the Ruin World for suppression.

Capturing alive is always more difficult than killing.

Actually, it's easier to completely kill the Cursed Corpse.

Don't worry, Jianmu can slowly refine and dissolve it completely.

But that won't work. We still need the complete Cursed Corpse to maintain its true essence, and we need to extract that essence to allow the Millstone and Furnace to advance to the Third Order.

Jianmu is earning milk money for both of them.

"Crack!"

The last foot was severed.

Suddenly freed, the Cursed Corpse, despite its exhaustion, still instinctively struggled to survive, erupting with powerful resistance.

Alas, it was all in vain. Jianmu's roots quickly tightened, and crackling sounds echoed, like popping beans.

The price was that almost every bone in the Cursed Corpse's body was shattered, almost completely broken.

Jianmu was using practical action to tell the Cursed Corpse, 'I wasn't using my full strength just now; I was waiting for your final struggle.'

"Roar—!"

The Cursed Corpse was ruthless and didn't talk much; it only knew how to roar since its appearance.

Therefore, this final 'roar' also became its farewell roar.

"Boom!" The Cursed Corpse disappeared.

Accompanying its disappearance was the Cursed Domain, like a shattered mirror, tearing apart.

It can't be too wasteful. You must know that the Cursed Domain was previously a small secret realm. Once broken and merged with the curse, it becomes a cursed domain of the curse, a small domain.

Space is formed without spirit, while a domain possesses both form and spirit; it is the existence of the curse's will merging.

This is Xuanhuang's first time suppressing and killing a Third Order curse. Every bit of a Third Order being is a treasure, a rare essence.

Under the control of Xuanhuang's will, this shattered Cursed Domain condensed. A ray of light emerged from beneath Xuanhuang's feet.

It was the Shadow Curse at the peak of the First Order. Although this Shadow Curse is unassuming, Xuanhuang has used it in many ways.

Currently, the storage spaces in the cultivator world all originate from the Shadow Curse's divided shadows.

The Shadow Curse disappears, which means that all current storage spaces cannot be opened.

The shadow is still the medium for opening storage spaces.

Xuanhuang generally doesn't use curses unless necessary, but the Shadow Curse has been very useful since he obtained it.

Considering its hard work, let the Shadow Curse refine and merge with this Cursed Domain.

His subordinates, whether they are magical artifacts or others, all have a Cursed Domain at the Second Order; it's Xuanhuang's standard configuration.

Unlike curses, only the exceptionally powerful ones can form a Cursed Domain at the Second Order.

Xuanhuang plans to have the Shadow Curse advance to the Second Order and also give birth to a Cursed Domain.

In the future, it won't have to follow him around all day; let it merge with the Mountain Shadow of Qingyun Mountain.

In the future, it will coexist and prosper with Qingyun Mountain, which can be considered a way out for it. A shadow-type curse is something it dreams of coexisting with.

"Go!"

Xuanhuang locked down the spreading Cursed Domain.

The Shadow Curse quickly entered it and began to devour and merge.

In the Ruin World, the entering Cursed Corpse was already incomplete, its limbs severed, but it maintained 90% integrity.

As soon as it entered and still wanted to struggle, it was quickly suppressed by the white divine soul, and its distorted will was instantly stripped away.

A generation of Cursed Corpse, stirring up trouble and committing evil, has now officially come to an end.

What awaits it is being devoured and eaten.

Don't underestimate that it's only at the early stage of the Third Order.

But the Cursed Corpse already has two complete Third Order red true essences, which can easily allow the Furnace and Ruin Millstone to advance to the Third Order.

The Millstone even impatiently conveyed its consciousness, saying that it didn't want anything else; just give it the limbs, and it could enter the Third Order with the incomplete true essence in the limbs.

After all, it only needs an introduction, not the complete essence.

Xuanhuang was also very pleased after receiving the message. This is perfect. Maybe one Cursed Corpse can not only allow the three artifacts to advance to the Third Order but also have a complete true essence remaining.

If the Millstone can advance with the limbs, then the Furnace can also use the incomplete one, which is equivalent to dividing one true essence into two, leaving one complete one.

This complete one, whether given to the Void Blade or the Dream Gate, can allow them to advance.

But Xuanhuang hasn't decided yet. For example, Purgatory seems to need to enter the Third Order as soon as possible.

The Dream Gate, Void Blade, Qingyun Boat, White Bone Pagoda, etc., are not in a hurry.

The reason is very simple.

Xuanhuang threw the limbs of the Cursed Corpse to the Ruin Millstone. The Millstone rumbled, and the black and white millstones separated, swallowing the limbs of the Cursed Corpse like a big mouth. Then, it disappeared to break through on its own.

Retracting his gaze, Xuanhuang looked at the quiet underground.

The reason for letting Purgatory enter the Third Order first is very simple. Xuanhuang's gaze locked onto the cyan Eight Trigrams Teleportation Array.

Xuanhuang wants to put this Teleportation Array into Purgatory.

This requires Purgatory's strength to be further enhanced; otherwise, if a strong person crosses over, Purgatory will not be able to trap the person who crosses over.

Even Xuanhuang has an even more outrageous plan.

It's not simply putting the Teleportation Platform into Purgatory, but merging it with Purgatory, that is, refining the two into one.

It's just that I don't know how strong this Teleportation Array is.

If it succeeds by luck, Purgatory and the Teleportation Array will merge into one, which means that the Teleportation God Stones scattered outside will become places that Xuanhuang can go to whenever he wants.

It will instantly expand Xuanhuang's sphere of influence. The Teleportation God Stones with this Teleportation Platform as the source are all extensions that Xuanhuang can control.

Tolak, the Capo he refined, does not know that there are five holy lands in the Great Universe.

The news of the five holy lands is only known to the three Capo elders; Tolak does not know.

But these are not important. Xuanhuang is very satisfied with the Teleportation God Stone with this Teleportation Platform as the source.

"Let's explore first to see if this Teleportation Platform can be moved."

Putting aside the complicated thoughts, the most important thing right now is to first study whether the Eight Trigrams Platform can be moved.

Violently moving it is not difficult; Xuanhuang can easily do it, but moving it without destroying the teleportation ability is what Xuanhuang wants.

After some exploration…

Everything cannot escape a field.

The reason why the Eight Trigrams Platform exists is also because a huge field is in operation.

The God Stones scattered outside are extensions that can resonate with this field, but they do not resonate normally.

Once the conditions are met, such as filling it with the specified energy, it will stimulate the vibration of the field, thus resonating with the Eight Trigrams Platform and then producing a teleportation similar to quantum transmission.

This is the essence of all teleportation arrays, which remains unchanged.

It is the resonance of two fields.

To maintain the operation of a platform's field requires a specific arrangement and environment.

The environment can be simplified into something like inscriptions, and then energy inscriptions can be added to replace the specific field. This is the essence of small teleportation arrays.

Large ones generally require powerful energy to support a specific energy field.

This Eight Trigrams Platform is maintained by the huge energy field formed by the surrounding countless mountains.

"It's difficult!"

Xuanhuang frowned. It's not easy to maintain such powerful energy.

"I'm afraid I guessed right. At least Third Order energy is needed to maintain operation. This Teleportation Array can only transmit powerhouses at the Third Order limit. This Teleportation Array does not support True Selves beyond the Third Order."

After some exploration, Xuanhuang had a basis.

It seems that to maintain it, Purgatory must first achieve the Third Order.

The ability of the eighteen layers of space in the Third Order Purgatory can easily maintain the operation of this Teleportation Array.
