Chapter 1022 Awakening of the Artifact Spirit
Meng Lanjun subconsciously reached out and tugged at Yunxi's sleeve. Yunxi didn't need to turn around to know that Meng Lanjun must have noticed something. She turned back to look at the other person, nodded slightly, and then closed the distance between the two of them so that even if something unexpected happened, it would be easier for them to react quickly.

Bai Yin seemed oblivious to the subtle interaction between the two. She went straight to a cave wall, gently placed her hand on a shallow groove, and then pressed down hard.

A rumbling sound rang out, and at the same time, some gravel and sand fell. Then, the stone wall blocking their way slowly rose up, revealing a hidden world on the other side.

Yunxi was momentarily dazed, while Menglanjun's expression grew increasingly grim, and he moved even closer to Yunxi, his expression tense to the extreme.

Bai Yin gestured for him to proceed and then said:

"This is a forbidden area of ​​the Shatuo Kingdom. Besides storing our most precious treasures, it also has a passage to leave this place."

After saying that, she took the lead and went in. The two children of the Shatuo King followed closely behind Bai Yin, while Yun Xi and Meng Lan Jun were the last to enter the cave.

Upon entering, Yunxi's gaze was immediately drawn to a somewhat damaged ancient teleportation array. This must be the passage that Queen Baiyin had mentioned that allowed them to leave, although the teleportation array was currently in a dormant state.

Sweat beaded on Meng Lanjun's forehead, and he swayed, nearly falling, but Yunxi caught him.

"Lan Jun, what's wrong?"

Menglan said weakly:

"Leave quickly!"

Before he could finish speaking, the stone wall collapsed with a loud crash, turning the space into a sealed-off area.

Yunxi raised an eyebrow at Bai Yin, who calmly explained:
"Don't worry, there will be some unusual phenomena when we activate the exit passage. To avoid unnecessary trouble, we can only temporarily close this place."

Meng Lanjun was completely suppressed and unable to say the rest of her words. She could only keep shaking her head at Yunxi.

At the same time, the Seven Star Deadly Staff in Yunxi's storage bracelet seemed to have reached its limit and flew out on its own in the next instant.

After the Seven Star Deadly Staff flew to Yun Xi, it began to tremble slightly and emit a "humming" sound, as if it was summoning something. The seven stars on the staff began to flash continuously. The six stars that had already been lit became constantly lit one by one, and the last star, the Heavenly Chaser Star, flashed faster and faster.

Yun Xi's eyes flashed, as if she realized something. She didn't stop the Seven Star Deadly Staff, but Bai Yin's expression changed drastically, and she roared:
"What are you doing?"

Meng Lanjun, who had been in poor condition, let out a long breath and then looked at Yun Xi and said:

“Look at the children of the Shatuo king.”

Upon hearing the prompt, Yunxi shifted her attention to the two people. Her brows furrowed as she realized that the two previously youthful-looking individuals had now become one person. This person was burly with curly blue hair and was angrily clutching his chest.

Bai Yin had already reached the man's side, reached out to support him, and asked anxiously:
"Your Majesty! What's wrong?"

The man pointed at Yunxi and Menglanjun and said:
"Kill them!" Upon receiving the order, Bai Yin's mature and charming face instantly blossomed with white flowers, and then she rushed towards Yun Xi.

When the Seven Star Deadly Staff blocked her way, Yunxi felt the immortal energy that had been hiding in her dantian begin to circulate. However, she had not fully recovered yet. When she saw Bai Yin rushing over, she knew that the other party should be "Crispy White", a companion of the Blue Hat Illusion Fungus.

She quickly pulled out the Frostbite Needle from her hair bun and used her divine sense to direct the needle towards Bai Yin. Just then, the blue-haired man groaned and spat out a mouthful of blue blood. His aura instantly weakened, and at the same time, something burst out of the ground and flew directly towards Yun Xi's location.

The Seven Star Deadly Staff lashed out the next moment, the flying bead embedding itself firmly into the position of the Heavenly Star on the staff. All seven stars were finally lit up, and golden halos rippled out from the staff, spreading throughout the cave and knocking everyone except Yunxi to the ground.

Then, under Yunxi's watchful gaze, the Seven Star Deadly Staff began to transform. The originally jet-black outer layer of the staff began to peel away inch by inch, just like a dusty bead that had finally been cleansed of its filth and began to shine with its own light.

Once the Seven Star Deadly Staff had turned completely golden, it rapidly grew larger, thicker, and longer, shooting straight up to the top of the cave and piercing through the entire cave before flying back into Yunxi's hand.

The moment Yunxi grasped the Seven Star Deadly Staff, the immortal energy within her body instantly returned to normal. It seemed that her previous retraction of it in her dantian was merely an illusion. Moreover, she could sense the Seven Star Deadly Staff's exuberance, as if its spirit had awakened.

At this moment, Yunxi just wanted to roar to the sky. She finally understood what Bai Tong meant by "getting what she wanted". The Seven Star Deadly Staff had been restored to its peak state and could help her, its master, to reach a new level of combat power.

With her restraints removed, Yunxi gripped the Seven Star Deadly Staff and flew directly out of the pierced cave ceiling. She hovered in mid-air, looking down at the slowly shrinking Shatuo City and the constant wails coming from within. The people in the city were aging at a visible rate, eventually turning into dust and drifting into the desert.

The next moment, a blue mushroom grew out of the hole. Green tendrils were wrapped around the mushroom's cap, and small red flowers were blooming rapidly on the tendrils. This was the Blue Cap Phantom Fungus.

The Blue-Cap Phantom Fungus grew to a hundred meters before stopping, and those blooming little red flowers were the true form of "Crispy White." However, she was now drawing life force from all living beings in the entire Shatuo City to supply the Blue-Cap Phantom Fungus, so the flowers turned from white to red.

A hoarse male voice entered Yunxi's ears:

“Foolish human, even if you destroy the teleportation array, you still can’t leave here. Hand over the Earth Spirit Orb obediently and become my nourishment, and I might make your death look better.”

Yunxi remained unmoved, only offering the other party a mocking smile, and then transmitted her voice:
"Lan Jun, find the core essence of the Blue Hat Phantom Fungus as soon as possible. Refining its essence will definitely allow you to break through. The opportunity is right in front of you, so you must seize it. Only by completely eliminating the Blue Hat Phantom Fungus can we leave."

Meng Lanjun readily agreed:

“I understand. Please keep him occupied for a while. I need to deal with his symbiotic ‘brittle white’ before I can find his essence.”

Yunxi only replied with a single word, "Okay," before unleashing the Xuanlei Purple Flame. The moment the purple smoke flew out of her dantian, it collided with the oncoming blue-green mist. The mist became a catalyst for the purple smoke, instantly turning the entire sky into a purple sea of ​​fire. The purple smoke also followed the blue-green smoke back towards the hundred-meter-tall Blue Hat Illusionary Fungus.

Menglanjun has transformed into a silky ribbon wrapped around the crisp white, and a faint fragrance spreads throughout the entire Shatuo City, plunging those who were previously screaming in pain into a beautiful dream, ultimately leading them to die with a smile.

Yunxi gripped the Seven Star Deadly Staff, which had become considerably heavier, twirled it, and before Cui Bai could entangle her, she swung the staff with effortless ease.
