edge of pure land.

Chapter 419 Lu Buer's Attempt
On the deserted highway, the SUVs that crashed into each other were like a group of dead sardines, the burnt engines emitting thick smoke. The refugees barely broke open the necrotic doors and climbed out with difficulty.

The dizziness caused by the collision made them feel dizzy, and some of them knelt down and retched, but what they vomited out was thick and fishy black water, emitting a foul odor of corpse.

Logically speaking, these evolvers should not be so weak. They are only so weak during the transformation stage after being infected with the corruption virus. Some of them are transforming into deformed monsters, while others are about to transform into highly adaptable human bodies.

For the infected, every minute of life is painful. They cannot drink or eat any contaminated water or food. Every breath they take will inhale the corruption virus, and even the contracted pores will allow the rotten smell to enter the body.

Every time their condition worsens, their self-awareness is eroded a little, as if another will has awakened in their body and is forcibly taking over.

But suddenly, these infected people were stunned, and their consciousness, which was about to fall, became clear for a moment, because they clearly felt that their condition had stopped worsening. Not only did the smell of corruption around them disappear, even the corruption virus in their bodies stopped spreading and multiplying, as if they had been redeemed in a short period of time.

"what?"

The only old man who had not yet climbed out of the car was feeling the changes around him in amazement. Even though his head was buzzing from the impact, he still understood the situation.

A pitch-black wooden sword wrapped in electric light was nailed to the asphalt road surface of the highway. Thousands of electric arcs flashed brightly, and there were faint burning light fragments floating up, which looked as dazzling as sunlight.

"Divine Ashes?"

The old man muttered, "You are using this pure divine art, are you trying to save your life? Your fate is so broken, but you are still using it. Don't let it explode later, will you?"

The sound of whistling wind and sand came from behind, the howling of evil spirits seemed to come from the depths of hell, and twisted and hideous faces were reflected in the broken rearview mirror.

"Everyone take shelter!"

A soldier who was driving pulled out the Shenjin grenade from his waist. He was seriously injured but he was not afraid. Instead, he showed an expression of being ready to die.

Comrades covered in wounds stood beside him. They were the first group of soldiers infected with the corruption virus, so they volunteered to join the search and rescue team to go out on missions. Therefore, they did not feel it was a pity even if they all died here, as it was better than turning into monsters that were neither human nor ghost.

Just when they were about to die heroically, the wooden sword nailed to the road suddenly burst into a scorching flash, and golden arcs jumped and flashed, instantly forming a huge electromagnetic field that enveloped all directions.

The old man's outstretched withered right hand also stopped, as if he had seen something incredible, and a hint of surprise appeared on his face.

Those howling evil spirits poked out from the wind and sand, and when they were about to prey on the unsuspecting infected people, they crashed into the golden electromagnetic field, just like a balloon blown up by a bomb, and turned into ashes in an instant!
The sounds of explosions and screams mixed together.

Even the howling sandstorm was blocked and could not move forward any further.

There was only thunder on the highway.

Roaring thunder.

The blazing electric light flashed, stinging everyone's eyes.

In the flickering electric light, someone pulled out the wooden sword stuck in the ground and said while coughing up blood: "It's better to have a higher rank. In the past, I could only fight these monsters in close combat, but now I can easily solve them by releasing an electromagnetic field..."

The electric field flashed arcs like a golden gas shield, and tens of thousands of resentful souls rushed over one after another, like mosquitoes electrocuted by electric nets in summer, exploding into black mist with crackling sounds and disappearing in the wind and sand.

When the infected people who were fleeing saw this scene, it was as if they had seen a god descend to earth. Having witnessed the miracle with their own eyes, they stood there in a daze, feeling the fear of surviving a calamity.

Only then did people realize that the person who saved them was just a red-haired boy. His motorcycle was parked on the side of the road, and on the motorcycle was a beautiful girl.

A rather odd combination.

Lu Buer endured the severe pain of the conflict of fate and coughed up blood, but his eyes were quite excited. After pulling out the wooden sword, he walked to the edge of the electromagnetic field and stretched out his hand.

His right hand penetrated the electric field and was exposed to the corrupt virus in the outside world.

But he was not infected, and the Divine Ashes was still protecting him.

Lu Buer felt the corruption virus that permeated the void. It was a breath that seemed illusory but actually existed. It spread like the thick miasma in the depths of the forest, omnipresent, penetrating every pore and reaching everything.

Then he did something.

His pupils suddenly turned into a noble dark gold color.

The sleeping god deep in my mind also opened his eyes. The holiness of the angel and the weirdness of the devil were perfectly combined. Thorns and vines were entangled.
The two original forces of Alpha and Omega tried to combine, and countless formulas emerged in his mind as he tried to calculate.

"Origin Returns!"

Long Ling had once displayed a similar power in Linhai City, but at that time no one could figure out the specific function of that power.

Now this supreme miracle was repeated in Lu Buer's hands. In a trance, it seemed as if another soul had awakened from his body and manipulated the laws of the world for him.

Boom!

As if the devil had awakened, the void suddenly split open a dark golden abyss, like a god's vertical pupil overlooking the earth from the clouds, majestic and indifferent. The rules of the world were changed, the dark sandstorm was turbulent, and countless black origin curses emerged, floating up like bubbles in boiling water, until they poured into the dark golden vertical pupil in the void and disappeared without a trace.

With Lu Buer as the core, the invisible and intangible realm expands!
This is the return of origin!
If there was a monitor capable of observing the second dimension, one would be able to see that the mighty corruption virus evaporated in the instant just now, and was transformed into the black curse of origin at a ratio of almost ten to one, and was sacrificed to the Supreme God.

It all happened so fast that the infected people didn't even notice the appearance of the dark golden vertical pupil. They only felt that the resentful souls in the sandstorm seemed to have weakened a lot, not as violent as before, and their attacks were no longer fearless.

Only the old man sitting in the car looked up at the sky as if he had noticed something. Although he didn't see anything, he could feel that something was fleeting.

"God system?"

he muttered to himself.

Plop.

Lu Buer spat out a mouthful of blood, his vision went dark, and his consciousness became dizzy.

The formula of return to origin was too much of a burden on him, and his body made sounds as if it was on the verge of shattering. Flickering electric currents appeared on the surface of his skin, like the lines on carbonized wood, and it could collapse at any time.

Especially on his forehead, golden blood was flowing.

At the critical moment, a drop of sweet blood seeped into his lips.

The instinct for survival made Lu Buer suck that drop of blood, and his shattered life was finally healed. Although the symptoms were not alleviated, his life was temporarily extended.

It is a life force that is different from any currently known power, and it does not even have any side effects. It is comparable to a miraculous power.

It felt like a giant was holding up a building that was on the verge of collapse.

The building is still the same building, but it won't collapse immediately.

This is Xiaoxian's ability as a witch. She does not need to advance deliberately. She can gain more powerful strength through natural development. Now a drop of her blood has the effect of bringing the dead back to life, but it also consumes a lot of energy for her.

"Brother, this power can no longer be used."

Xiao Xian knelt beside him, stroking his lips with her blood-dripping slender fingers, as if she was redeeming a desert traveler dying of thirst: "This formula will not only increase your numerology burden, it will even make the power in your brain..."

Of course Lu Buer knew what she was talking about. At that moment his brain was aching slightly, a bit like the pain he felt when his cancer attacked him.

In fact, since breaking out of the cocoon, the pain from cancer is nothing to him. The evolvers have a strong tolerance to pain.

What's more, he has endured countless tremendous pains along the way and has long been accustomed to it.

It is said that the human body has a similar protective mechanism. If a part of the body is injured too many times, it will no longer feel pain.

But now that familiar cancer pain comes back again.

This means that the cancer pain is tens of millions times more severe than it was in the past.

"I know, but let's see the results first."

Lu Buer paused and said, "Especially water and food."

Xiao Xian turned around, her extremely deep and calm eyes turned white again, as if covered by a layer of faint mist, reflecting the crashed off-road vehicles.

These refugees all carried some drinking water and food in their cars, but because they were contaminated by the corruption virus, they were basically inedible.

But in Xiaoxian's perception at this moment, these resources needed for life no longer emitted that strange black aura, but instead turned into normal colors.

"That water and food were purified."

Xiao Xian said seriously: "But these people are still infected with the corruption virus."

"I know, because they are all living beings. They have been infected at the genetic level. Even after being purified, it is still impossible to cure them. In a sense, these people are no longer human, but the mother of the corruption virus. The Divine Ashes can curb the growth of the corruption virus, and the Origin Return can remove the corruption virus in their bodies, but neither can change their genetic structure."

Lu Buer covered his lips in pain and whispered, "Unless I can materialize a more complete formula. This requires constant contact and a complete fusion of the divine body and the dark body. By then, I will be able to resolve the conflict between the two."

He took a deep breath: "That is to say, I need the Holy Word."

While the brother and sister were whispering, bursts of exclamations were heard from the roadside.

"You are...Major Lu?"
