Under One Person: I Opened the Age of Mythology

Chapter 483

Sun Wukong slowly opened his eyes, lightly tapped the ground with his golden cudgel, and the golden light on the cudgel spread out like ripples, extending along the direction of the earth's veins.

His gaze was calm as still water, yet a faint sharpness shone between his brows, as if he had seen through the mysteries deep within the earth's veins.

"The source of the energy fluctuations is deeper underground."

Sun Wukong said in a low voice, his tone carrying a hint of certainty.

Upon hearing this, Yang Jian immediately stepped forward, and with a gentle flick of his three-pointed double-edged sword, a streak of silver light flashed across the blade.

His gaze was focused, and the tip of his blade lightly touched the ground. The runes flowed along the blade, like a silver river meandering across the ground.

"I'll try guiding the earth's energy to see if I can find a more specific flow."

Yang Jian said in a low voice, his tone calm and composed.

His fingers gently traced the blade, and the runes flowed more rapidly under his touch, as if resonating with the energy of the earth's veins.

Nezha stood to the side, the tip of his Fire-Tipped Spear slightly raised, the flames dancing in the air, reflecting his slightly impatient expression.

His gaze swept over Yang Jian's movements, a slight smirk playing on his lips:
"Why are you all being so cautious? Since the source is down there, why don't we just go down directly?"

Sun Wukong shook his head slightly, and gently tapped the ground with his golden cudgel. The golden light on the cudgel flowed like water, slowly extending along the earth's veins.

"The energy of the earth's veins is complex and ever-changing. If we act rashly, it may lead to uncontrollable consequences."

Yang Jian nodded, and gently planted the three-pointed double-edged sword into the ground. The runes on the blade gradually lit up, and magical power flowed into the ground along the blade.
“The Great Sage is right. We need to figure out the energy flow of the earth’s veins before deciding on our next move.”

Nezha snorted coldly, slightly raising his Fire-Tipped Spear, the flame at the tip drawing a scorching trail in the air:

"Okay, okay, take your time, I can't wait."

After he finished speaking, he suddenly swung the Fire-Tipped Spear, and the flames at the tip of the spear drew a blazing fire dragon in the air, rushing straight into the depths of the earth.

The moment the flames collided with the underground rocks, a deep roar was heard, sparks flew everywhere, and a narrow crack was blasted open in the rocks, revealing a deep passage below.

Upon seeing this, Sun Wukong slightly raised his golden cudgel, and the golden light from the cudgel completely illuminated the passage.

His gaze was cold and stern, and his tone was low:
"Now that the passage is open, let's go down and take a look."

Yang Jian nodded, and with a light flick of his three-pointed, double-edged sword, a wisp of silver light flowed from the runes on the blade:
"Everyone be careful, the energy fluctuations underground are much stronger than before."

Nezha leaped into the air, the flames of his Fire-Tipped Spear flickering slightly, reflecting his slightly excited expression:

"Finally, we can get started!"

After he finished speaking, he took the lead and stepped into the passage, the light of the fire-tipped spear drawing a fiery path in the darkness.

The three of them quickly descended through the passage. The surrounding rock walls were covered with dense runes, the light of which flickered in the darkness, as if monitoring their movements.

A suffocating sense of oppression filled the air, and the earth's ley line energy flowed through the channels, carrying an unsettling fluctuation.

"The energy here is getting stronger and stronger."

Sun Wukong's voice was deep, his steps slowed, and he slightly raised his golden cudgel, the golden light illuminating the passage ahead.

Yang Jian followed closely behind, his three-pointed double-edged sword swung lightly, the runes on the blade gleaming with a cold light.

His gaze was fixed on the darkness ahead, his palm resting on the blade, sensing the flow of earth energy, his brow furrowed slightly.

"This force seems to be guiding the earth's ley line energy in one direction; we need to speed things up."

Nezha snorted coldly and swung his Fire-Tipped Spear sharply. The flames at the tip of the spear drew a blazing fire dragon in the air, rushing straight towards the passage ahead.

The firelight illuminated his slightly impatient expression, and his pace quickened accordingly.
"You guys are so slow, I'm getting impatient."

The three of them quickly descended through the passage, gradually arriving at a deeper underground space.

The surrounding rock walls gradually disappeared, replaced by a huge void. In the center of the void floated a black energy sphere, and the earth's energy was converging from all directions and flowing into the energy sphere.

"There is indeed a problem."

Sun Wukong's gaze was cold and stern. He swung his golden cudgel suddenly, and the golden light from the cudgel struck the energy ball directly.

However, the moment the golden light touched the energy ball, it was instantly bounced back, causing Sun Wukong to stagger backward.

Seeing this, Yang Jian suddenly swung his three-pointed double-edged sword, the runes on the blade swirling with a silver light as they aimed directly at the energy ball.

The moment the blade collided with the energy ball, the energy ball trembled violently, but remained completely still.

Nezha snorted coldly and swung his Fire-Tipped Spear sharply. The flames at the tip of the spear drew a blazing fire dragon in the air, heading straight for the energy ball.

The moment the flames collided with the energy ball, a deafening roar was heard, sparks flew everywhere, and the energy ball swayed slightly, but still maintained its original shape.

"This energy ball is a bit strange."

Sun Wukong steadied himself, raised his golden cudgel slightly, and the golden light on the cudgel slowly flowed.

"It can actually absorb and deflect our attacks."

Yang Jian frowned, and gently touched his three-pointed double-edged sword in front of him, the runes on the blade gleaming with a cold light.

His fingers gently traced the blade, and he whispered:

"This energy ball not only absorbs the earth's energy, but also continuously releases a certain power, interfering with the earth's energy flow."

Nezha impatiently waved his Fire-Tipped Spear, the flame at the tip flickering slightly, reflecting his disdainful expression:
"Who cares what it is, let's just blast it open, shall we?"

Sun Wukong shook his head slightly, his gaze still fixed on the energy ball, his tone low:

"We can't act rashly. There seems to be something controlling this energy sphere from within; we need to find the source first."

Yang Jian nodded, and gently inserted the three-pointed double-edged sword into the ground. The runes on the blade gradually lit up, and magical power flowed into the ground along the blade.

His eyes narrowed slightly, as if sensing the changes in the earth's veins:
"There is an extremely strong force inside the energy sphere, which seems to be trying to control the core of the earth's veins."

"Then let's just break it open."

Nezha snorted coldly and suddenly swung his Fire-Tipped Spear, the flames at the tip of the spear leaving a scorching trail in the air.

"No, we can't let it continue absorbing the earth's energy."

Sun Wukong's voice was deep, and he suddenly swung his golden cudgel, causing the golden light on the cudgel to surge and strike the energy ball.

With a muffled thud, the energy sphere trembled violently, and the flow of earth vein energy became disordered.

Sun Wukong closed his eyes slightly, a faint golden light emanating from between his brows. He thrust his golden cudgel into the ground, the golden light from the staff seeping into the earth's veins like water, rapidly spreading along the flow of energy. His palms gently rested on the ground, his fingertips trembling slightly, as if sensing every fluctuation within the earth's veins.

A moment later, he suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze sharp, his tone low and resolute:
"The core of the energy ball is in the weak point of the earth's veins; we need to start from there."

Upon hearing this, Yang Jian immediately stepped forward, lightly waving his three-pointed double-edged sword, the blade drawing a silver streak in the air.

He lightly ran his fingers along the blade, the runes gleaming with a cold light, his gaze fixed intently on the depths of the earth's veins:

"I've used a rune array to block the energy output of the energy ball. You all seize this opportunity to attack, making sure your strike hits its mark!"

Nezha impatiently swung his Fire-Tipped Spear, the flames at the tip drawing a scorching trail in the air, reflecting his slightly excited expression:

"Finally, we can get started! Monkeys, hurry up!"

Sun Wukong did not respond. Instead, he took a deep breath and swung his golden cudgel. The golden light on the cudgel suddenly surged, and his magic power seeped into the earth's veins, guiding the energy of the veins to strike the weak point of the energy ball.

His gaze was cold and stern, a hint of focus appeared between his brows, and his steps sank slightly, as if he had become one with the earth.

As the magical power and the earth's energy merged, the surface of the energy sphere began to tremble slightly, and the patterns of the runes gradually appeared, as if resisting this external impact.

A fine layer of sweat appeared on Sun Wukong's forehead, and the golden cudgel in his hand trembled slightly, but he still stood firmly with a look of unwavering determination.

Yang Jian moved swiftly, his three-pointed double-edged sword carving a complex array of runes on the ground. The runes shone like silver chains, spreading rapidly and completely surrounding the energy sphere.

His movements were precise and swift; the tip of his blade left almost no mark on the ground, only the shimmering runes testified to his presence.

"The rune array is complete, and the energy output of the energy ball has been blocked."

Yang Jian said in a low voice, a hint of satisfaction in his tone.

Seeing this, Nezha swung his Fire-Tipped Spear, and the flames at the tip of the spear drew a blazing fire dragon in the air, heading straight for the damaged part of the energy ball.

His gaze was fixed on the energy ball, a hint of disdain in his eyes:
"A mere energy ball dares to act tough in front of us!"

The moment the flames collided with the energy sphere, a deafening roar erupted, sparks flew everywhere, more cracks appeared on the surface of the energy sphere, and the light of the runes gradually dimmed.

Nezha's lips curled up slightly, a hint of triumphant satisfaction in his expression.

Seeing the energy ball begin to waver, Sun Wukong suddenly increased the output of his magic power with his golden cudgel. The golden light on the cudgel surged into the earth's veins like a torrent, striking directly at the core of the energy ball.

He leaned slightly forward, his body like a taut bowstring, ready to unleash his strongest power at any moment.

Seeing this, Yang Jian swung his three-pointed double-edged sword, and the runes on the blade flowed with an even stronger binding force, completely sealing off the energy output of the energy ball.

His gaze was calm and focused. The tip of his blade lightly touched the ground, and the runes flowed more rapidly under his touch, as if resonating with the energy of the earth's veins.

Nezha showed no mercy, wielding his Fire-Tipped Spear repeatedly, the flames at the tip drawing fiery dragons in the air as they hurtled towards the damaged area of ​​the energy ball.

His movements were swift and violent, the flames were extremely hot, and the surrounding air was slightly distorted. The firelight reflected on his angular face, making him look even more spirited and youthful.

With the combined attack of the three, the energy ball gradually became overwhelmed, more cracks appeared on its surface, and the runes completely collapsed.

The flow of earth vein energy was completely disrupted, and the inside of the energy sphere began to tremble violently, as if it would collapse at any moment.

Seeing this, Sun Wukong suddenly increased his magical power output, and the golden light of the Golden Cudgel suddenly surged, the staff striking the core of the energy ball.

His gaze was cold and resolute, a hint of determination in his eyes, and the ground beneath his feet sank slightly due to the impact of the magic.

Yang Jian quickly adjusted the rune array, and the blade of his three-pointed double-edged sword drew a silver light in the air. The rune patterns spread rapidly, completely sealing off the area around the energy ball.

His fingers gently brushed across the blade, the runes gleaming with a cold light, his gaze remaining calm and focused.

Seeing that the energy ball was about to shatter, Nezha swung his Fire-Tipped Spear, and the flames at the tip of the spear drew a blazing fire dragon in the air, rushing straight towards the energy ball's last line of defense.

His eyes held a hint of excitement, but his tone carried a trace of disdain:
"it is finally over!"

With the combined attack of the three, the energy ball finally succumbed to the pressure, letting out a deafening roar before shattering completely.

The flow of earth vein energy returned to normal, the surrounding rock walls stopped trembling, and the oppressive feeling in the air gradually dissipated.

Sun Wukong retrieved his golden cudgel, and the golden light on the cudgel gradually subsided.

His gaze swept around, a slight smile playing on his lips, his tone tinged with ease:
"Finally solved."

Yang Jian also sheathed his three-pointed, double-edged sword, the runes on its blade slowly dissipating. His gaze remained calm, his tone steady:

"The shattering of the energy sphere means that the interference with the earth's ley line energy has been completely eliminated."

Nezha sheathed his Fire-Tipped Spear, the flame at its tip flickering slightly, reflecting his somewhat disdainful expression:

"So that's all. It seems this energy ball isn't anything special."

"However, the origin of this energy ball is something we should think about deeply."

Yang Jian spoke, his tone unusually solemn. He sheathed his sword slowly and meticulously, wiping away the remaining energy residue on the blade, but his gaze was fixed on the distance, as if he could see a deeper hidden danger through this now peaceful cave.

The air inside the cave still carried the scorching smell of shattered energy, and small cracks remained on the stone walls, silently telling the story of the fierce battle that had just taken place.

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong put down his golden cudgel, pondered for a moment, then turned and walked to a larger crack. He gently stroked the rough rock wall with his hand, his brow furrowed slightly, and whispered:

"Indeed, such powerful energy could not have been formed naturally."

He twitched his fingertips slightly, as if sensing something, then slowly stood up, his eyes sharp as a hawk's.

Nezha snorted dismissively, slung his Fire-Tipped Spear over his shoulder, and spoke with obvious impatience:

"Who cares what the source is? We've already taken care of it, so stop arguing!"

He kicked a pebble, which made a crisp sound echoing among the three of them in the empty cave.

Sun Wukong closed his eyes and concentrated for a moment, then suddenly opened them. He lightly tapped the ground with his golden cudgel, and the golden light on the cudgel flowed like water, spreading along the energy fluctuations of the earth's veins.

"The source of that faint fluctuation is deeper underground."

He spoke in a low voice, his tone firm, and a hint of seriousness appeared between his brows.

Upon hearing this, Yang Jian immediately stepped forward, lightly swung his three-pointed double-edged sword, and the blade sliced ​​across the ground, causing the runes to spread rapidly across the surface, forming a complex array of runes amidst flashes of silver light.

"Since the source is still down there, I'll try to guide the earth's energy to further investigate the details."

Yang Jian's voice was calm and steady. His fingertips gently brushed across the blade, and the runes flowed more rapidly, as if resonating with the energy of the earth's veins.
