While deliberately and casually evading Zi Linling's attacks, Ye Lingyuan carefully observed the purple light emanating from the scalpel in her hand.
He noticed that the purple light seemed immune to all attacks, or rather, it could disregard any form of power.
This shocked Ye Lingyuan greatly, and he became filled with curiosity about the purple light.
What kind of power was this?
Ye Lingyuan felt that the purple light was very familiar, yet he couldn't recall where he had seen it before.
Moreover, a glimmer of inspiration seemed to flicker in his mind, but whenever he tried to grasp it, it felt like nothing was there.
It was precisely because of this that he appeared somewhat absent-minded.
To Zi Linling, however, this was perceived as a perfunctory dismissal and an insult.
Therefore, seeing him in his current state only fueled her anger.
As she grew more enraged, her movements with the scalpel became even more ferocious.
The combination of the Chaos Purple Qi and ancient martial arts instantly amplified Zi Linling's aura.
Furthermore, the angrier she became, the smoother her extraction of Chaos Purple Qi became, and the brighter the purple light on her scalpel shone.
That's right!
The purple light was precisely Zi Linling's infusion of the Chaos Purple Qi within her body onto the scalpel.
Chaos Purple Qi, though resembling spiritual energy, was not spiritual energy. It was the essence of the primal energy released by heaven and earth at the time of primordial chaos, the very foundation of all things in the world.
However, as time passed, the consumption of Chaos Purple Qi by the myriad things in the world grew increasingly large.
Especially after the emergence of humans, the consumption of Chaos Purple Qi accelerated even more rapidly.
This was because, after cultivators in the human realm broke through to the Saint King realm, each subsequent breakthrough required Chaos Purple Qi as a foundation.
And since Chaos Purple Qi was a gift from heaven and earth to the new world at its inception, it could not be regenerated.
Consequently, after enduring the baptism of the river of time, Chaos Purple Qi completely vanished from this world.
This was precisely why people on the Tianyuan Continent, after reaching the peak of the Saint Yuan realm, could not break through to the next level.
The reason Zi Linling possessed Chaos Purple Qi within her body was because she had activated the Seven-Colored Space that came with her Seven-Colored Spiritual Roots.
The Seven-Colored Space was a product of chaos itself, containing a large amount of Chaos Purple Qi.
However, Zi Linling, in her current state, had no idea how precious Chaos Purple Qi was and thus squandered it indiscriminately.
To the extent that later, when she discovered that Chaos Purple Qi was an indispensable necessity for cultivators to break through to higher realms, she almost regretted it to the point of her intestines twisting.
Only then did she realize that Feng Liqi from her past life was but a small fry compared to her in this lifetime.
She, in this lifetime, was truly the ultimate prodigal – the ancestor of all prodigals!
Of course, all this was a story for another time.
Returning to the present, Chaos Purple Qi, as the fundamental essence of all things, possessed the ability to fuse with and assimilate all powers. It was precisely for this reason that it could restrain all elemental substances.
Of course, Zi Linling was unaware of this.
Elder Du recognized Chaos Purple Qi because, during his own breakthrough years ago, his master had produced his own treasured collection.
However, despite recognizing it, Elder Du did not inform Zi Linling. Thus, Zi Linling currently only knew that Chaos Purple Qi could disregard and penetrate various elemental spiritual energies.
Of course, this was something she had inadvertently discovered previously while dealing with the dwarf Xu Feihu.
As the purple light on the scalpel grew increasingly brilliant, Zi Linling's attacks on Ye Lingyuan ceased.
She closed her eyes, entering a peculiar state.
Since Zi Linling did not attack, Ye Lingyuan naturally did not make a move.
Ye Lingyuan glanced at the now quiet Zi Linling, a hint of surprise in his eyes.
With his vast knowledge, how could he not recognize that the state Zi Linling was entering was the state countless cultivators yearned for – enlightenment.
Therefore, to prevent Zi Linling's enlightenment from being interrupted, Ye Lingyuan directly bestowed a surge of spiritual energy upon Fu Liuyun and the unconscious Xiong Tai, Li Luo, and Xie Shenghua, sending them thirty miles away.
Moreover, as he threw them, Ye Lingyuan didn't even bother to discern their direction; it was truly casual.
Afterward, he cast a warning glance at Long'er and the Wind Wing Phantom Tiger, then vigilantly faced the surrounding area, assuming a protective stance for Zi Linling.
Both Long'er and the Wind Wing Phantom Tiger seemed to greatly fear Ye Lingyuan, as after his warning, they quietly stood there, not daring to make a sound.
Zi Linling was surrounded by darkness, devoid of any light or sound, in profound silence. She could even hear her own heartbeat.
A suffocating, oppressive fear rapidly consumed her, and she couldn't help but struggle.
She then realized that she was like a trapped creature within a colossal egg, surrounded by a viscous substance.
Suddenly, a tremendous force erupted in the darkness, and blinding light flooded her surroundings.
She instinctively closed her eyes, and after a long while, she slowly opened a sliver.
As her eyes widened, she finally perceived the surrounding scenery.
Amidst the pervasive murkiness, a purple light point appeared.
The purple light point grew larger and brighter, gradually forming a sun.
A deafening thunderclap roared, and the purple sun suddenly exploded, transforming into strands of purple rain that seeped into the earth.
Then, mountains and rivers emerged on the barren land.
On the high mountains and where the rivers flowed, tender sprouts pushed their way out of the soil.
These sprouts grew rapidly. The once barren mountains became lush and verdant, the riverbanks, previously bare, turned emerald green, and the desolate land became teeming with life.
Soon, flowers bloomed everywhere, swaying in the wind, greedily absorbing nutrients from the air.
Flowers withered, bore fruit, and then the fruits split open, transforming into seeds, repeating the cycle.
Again and again, everything was tirelessly reiterated.
Before long, in the crystal-clear rivers, peculiar creatures began to appear.
Though Zi Linling couldn't name them, she could sense their vibrant life force. Su Dan Novel Network.
Gradually, in the forests, on the plains, and in the sky, various kinds of animals appeared.
Thus, other sounds besides the wind filled the world.
After an unknown period, a humanoid creature descended from the sky, and humanity was born.
Zi Linling's consciousness returned. In her peculiar state, she suddenly opened her eyes, a captivating smile gracing her lips.
Then, a spiritual energy vortex reappeared above her head, and the surrounding spiritual energy surged towards her.
She sat cross-legged, and the "Human Emperor's Medical Canon" within her body automatically activated, guiding the spiritual energy along specific pathways.
After a few breaths, her aura abruptly stabilized, and her cultivation, at the mid-stage of the Qi Induction realm, permeated outward.
