Chapter 317

“No problem!” Gu Shihan looked at Shi Qinghan and the others and said, “Big brother, give the order to have everyone find a place to meditate.”

Everyone found a place to meditate, and Gu Shihan stayed by Xie Ziming's side. The palace suddenly became quiet, with only the occasional slight breeze.

Time passed slowly, and Xie Ziming's breathing became more and more steady, but his brows were still tightly furrowed, as if he was struggling with his chaotic memories.

Suddenly, a commotion arose outside the palace, as if something was approaching.

Gu Shihan immediately became alert, stood up abruptly, and gathered icy power in her hands.

A group of small monsters, still affected by the lingering evil forces, were seen surging towards the palace.

Gu Shihan acted decisively, using ice magic to erect ice walls that temporarily blocked the monsters.

Shi Qinghan and the others were also awakened by the commotion and quickly came to help. Together they attacked and soon drove the monsters away.

After all that commotion, everyone returned to their positions and continued to regulate their breathing.

Beads of sweat appeared on Xie Ziming's forehead, and his body trembled slightly. He felt as if he had reached a crucial moment in recovering his memories and must not be disturbed.

Gu Shihan stared intently at him, not daring to relax for a moment, for fear that something unexpected might interrupt his memory recovery.

After a while, Xie Ziming's breathing became more and more stable, and the light emanating from his body became softer and softer.

Gu Shihan stood guard intently by his side. Although he had put away the icy power in his hands, he was ready to deal with any emergencies at any time. His eyes were fixed on Xie Zimo, afraid of missing even the slightest change.

Suddenly, Xie Ziming's body trembled violently, and an exceptionally strong light shot out from his body, directly into the sky.

The light was exceptionally pure, carrying a sacred quality, instantly dispelling the remaining darkness and gloom in the palace.

Gu Shihan was overjoyed, knowing that Xie Ziming's memory recovery might have made great progress.

The light faded slowly after a while, and Xie Zimo slowly opened his eyes. His eyes were no longer filled with confusion, but instead radiated wisdom and strength.

He stood up, exuding an extraordinary aura, as if he had regained the majesty and confidence he once had as the ruler of the celestial realm.

"Thank you all for your help. My memories have all returned." Xie Ziming's voice was steady and resonant throughout the palace.

"Ten thousand years ago, during the great battle between good and evil, I was severely injured and descended to the mortal realm to undergo tribulation. But I always had a wish in my heart that I could one day return to the immortal realm and completely destroy this evil force. Now, the time has come."

Looking at Xie Ziming who had regained his memories, Gu Shihan was filled with emotion.

"In that case, let's join forces and completely eliminate this hidden danger in the immortal realm." Everyone nodded in agreement, and morale soared.

Just then, a deep roar came from the depths of the palace, as if an even more powerful evil force had awakened.

Xie Ziming's expression changed, and he said, "It seems that this evil force has not completely disappeared. It is secretly gathering strength, trying to make a final struggle."

Gu Shihan clenched her fist, icy power swirling at her fingertips, and said, "No matter what their schemes are, we won't be afraid, we won't back down." Xingbai, Yutong, and the others also cast spells, preparing for battle.

The group walked deeper into the palace, each step taken with unwavering determination.

The deeper they went, the denser the darkness became, as if countless eyes were watching them from the shadows. Suddenly, a group of dark figures rushed in from all directions. These figures moved swiftly, surrounding them in the blink of an eye.

Gu Shihan was the first to act, her icy power transforming into countless ice blades that shot towards the shadowy figure with a "whoosh." The ice blades sliced ​​through the air with a "whoosh" sound, and upon touching the shadowy figure, they all dissipated.

Xingbai also unleashed the power of light, a golden ray enveloping everyone and shielding them from the shadowy attack.

Yu Tong unleashed phoenix fire, the blazing flames illuminating the dark space and forcing the shadows back.

But the shadowy figures seemed endless, charging in wave after wave. Although everyone fought desperately, they were gradually becoming overwhelmed.

Just then, Xie Ziming suddenly formed hand seals rapidly while chanting incantations. An immense power surged from his body, spreading out instantly and shattering all the surrounding shadows.

“This is…” Gu Shihan looked at Xie Ziming in surprise.

"This is the primordial power of the Immortal Realm. Although I have undergone countless tribulations throughout my life, this power has always remained within my body," Xie Zimo explained. "Now, let's rely on this power to completely destroy this source of evil."

Led by Xie Ziming, the group continued deeper into the palace.

Finally, they arrived at an exceptionally large cave. Inside the cave, a gigantic sphere emitting a black light floated in the air, surrounded by rings of evil runes—the core of the evil power.

Xie Ziming and Gu Shihan exchanged a glance and launched their attacks simultaneously.

Xie Ziming's celestial power and Gu Shihan's icy power combined to form an exceptionally bright beam of light that shot towards the black sphere.

Xingbai, Yutong, and the others also unleashed their strongest spells, gathering their power to join the attack.

Sensing danger, the black sphere began to spin wildly, unleashing streaks of black lightning in an attempt to block the onslaught.

In an instant, light and lightning intertwined, illuminating the entire cave as if it were daytime.

The forces of both sides collided violently inside the cave, causing a massive explosion that shook the cave so badly it felt like it could collapse at any moment.

During the fierce battle, Gu Shihan suddenly discovered that the runes on the black sphere seemed to have a weakness.

She focused her mind, manipulating the power of ice to attack the rune's weak point.

Xie Ziming also noticed that increasing the output of his primal power worked perfectly in conjunction with Gu Shihan's icy power.

As the attacks intensified, the runes on the black sphere slowly began to crack.

Finally, with a deafening roar, the black sphere exploded, and the evil power was assimilated by beams of white light and vanished in an instant.

The darkness in the cave vanished instantly, replaced by a peaceful light.

Before everyone could even celebrate, they saw Xie Ziming leap towards the stone statue, and the instant he touched it, he became one with it.

"Shi Han, has he turned into a stone statue?" Duan Siqi asked in surprise.

"I don't know, let's be careful and on guard. Look! The statue is glowing, everyone retreat quickly!" Gu Shihan received Xingbai's telepathic message and hurriedly reminded him.

Fortunately, everyone listened to Gu Shih-han's words and immediately retreated after hearing them.
