I transformed into a cute girl and lived a carefree life in the apocalypse.

In Yan Ziming's words, it was... a bit awkward.

As for whether it was due to unfamiliarity or some other factor, Yan Zimo had no idea.

Liu Mengxian gently opened the door to her room. Inside, the blankets were all bunched up. Yan Ziming went in and saw that Mo Xin was asleep.

"Huh? What happened to Mo Xin...?"

The girlish Mo Xin had changed, reverting to the loli form that Yan Ziming had first met, just like a doll.

"This was her request." Liu Mengxian touched Mo Xin's face, and the sleeping Mo Xin snuggled closer comfortably.

Yan Ziming watched this scene in silence, and sighed inwardly, probably thinking of something.

I'm sorry, Mo Xin, I can't give you what you want.

Mo Xin was fully aware of Yan Zimo's feelings for her, but unfortunately, he and she were destined to have no future together.

She also touched Mo Xin's face, feeling as if she were raising a daughter.

"Mmm...uh-huh..."

Perhaps Yan Ziming used too much force, because Mo Xin let out a soft moan.

"Go out."

Liu Mengxian gently nudged her, scolding her for being careless. Yan Ziming awkwardly got up, and the two of them walked out one after the other.

The door closed very softly, and after they left, the little girl who had been sleeping in the room suddenly opened her eyes.

Are those eyes filled with sadness... or regret?

If I had revealed my feelings earlier, what would the outcome have been?

31. Wall of Elements: Elemental Domination and Elemental Resonance

After leaving the living room, Yan Ziming sat for a while and suddenly had a question about himself that he wanted to ask Xian'er.

"Hey, Xian'er, do you think it's possible for me... um... to break through to a new level from the Void Spirit Realm like my uncle did?"

Previously, her sequential-level combat power was entirely due to the help of the useless Xi. Because of this, she was unable to fully demonstrate the combat power of that level.

What isn't yours will never truly be yours, and the side effects are quite obvious.

Liu Mengxian glanced at her indifferently, her eyes seemingly seeing right through Yan Ziming, and finally said directly, "Okay."

"That's great!"

Upon receiving Xian'er's affirmative answer, Yan Ziming's eyebrows lit up with joy, and then he asked, "What is the method?"

"precipitation."

Liu Mengxian's answer was simple and clear, meaning that this was not something that could be rushed and required long-term accumulation.

No matter how fast you progress, you still have to follow this rule; no one can avoid it.

Yan Ziming was not disappointed. He had only just broken through to the Void Spirit Realm, and it would be too greedy to want to go any further.

She needs to proceed steadily and surely. She hasn't fully grasped the mysteries of the Void Realm yet, and there's still room for her to advance further.

As always, the fastest and best way to improve is to compete against strong opponents.

Now that she's at the Void Spirit Realm, ordinary opponents are no longer enough for her to make a move, and even some Void Spirit Realm opponents can't bring her much benefit.

The only decent target around him was Mu Mu, who was the only one at the Void Spirit Realm, and the only one who could compete with him one-on-one.

As for Ye Qianxue, Xiao Ze, and Mo Xin, they are all a step behind her in strength, so it wouldn't be good for them to fight her alone. However, it would be a good option for them to team up against her.

Let's do it this way after a while!

Just as Yan Ziming made up his mind, Liu Mengxian came over and said something that left him stunned for a few seconds.

"Mo'er, would you like to play a game of chess with me?"

Xian'er... what did you just say?

After a brief moment of surprise, Yan Ziming nodded vigorously, "Yes! Of course I want to!"

In a brief few seconds, an invisible, powerful aura surged around her, distorting the void, and the rising battle intent pierced through the walls, forming a vortex of clouds in the sky.

Perhaps because the two sides have been too far apart in strength for a long time, Liu Mengxian was not on her opponent list from the beginning.

Now that it's been mentioned, Yan Ziming finally remembered that he had a great expert by his side.

The scenery changed, and they found themselves in ruins a hundred miles away from Beian City.

Coincidentally, this is also a location of an insect nest that China has identified and marked.

"I didn't expect it would be you, Xian'er, who took the initiative to suggest it."

Yan Ziming raised her hand and summoned the Spear of Victory. Wings of light spread out behind her, extending a full hundred meters away. The surrounding colors dimmed, and blue-purple hues flowed in the air, as if an angel of light had descended to the mortal world, bringing a sense of primordial chaos.

Facing Liu Mengxian, she didn't need to hold back at all, and the other party didn't need to hold back either.

Don't be naive enough to think you can win; that's just a possibility that exists only on the other side of the spectrum. Just fight with all your might!

Yan Ziming let out a low shout and launched a probing attack.

First of all, Yan Ziming is very clear about her own advantages. Although she despises it, Xian'er is no longer Lei Ling, she is now!

A pair of wings of light folded together and pointed forward, instantly piercing through the spatial barrier with a fierce and violent lightning, launching a full-scale invasion of all matter, including the sky, and staining it with a blue-purple light.

Liu Mengxian simply took a light step, slightly turned her body, and pushed with one hand. Yan Ziming felt the light wings he had condensed begin to tremble unsteadily, their direction leaking out, and he missed.

Immediately afterwards, his own wings of light shattered inch by inch, and Yan Zimo could no longer sense their presence.

"Elemental Domination!"

Yan Ziming's pupils contracted sharply as she recalled the name Liu Mengxian had once told her.

That was Liu Mengxian's own path, which seemed to be a challenge to Lei Ling, the supreme being in the lightning element, and a forceful attempt to snatch control of the lightning element from Lei Ling's hands!

It's hard to imagine how powerful Liu Mengxian would have been when she was still Lei Ling, with her elemental control.

After the initial probing attack, a barrage of attacks, almost like a falling starry sky, engulfed the area. The sky darkened as Yan Ziming unleashed his terrifying destructive power. Thunder roared, bringing a call to destruction, and the sky was filled with dazzling lightning and rain, the terrifying shockwaves traveling far and wide.

It is often said that when a ninth-tier cultivator gets into a fight, it's a catastrophe, and this is absolutely true. This is perfectly exemplified in Yan Ziming's case.

Ordinary people would find any struggle futile against such violence that could burn mountains and boil seas and mercilessly tear apart any resistance. But when they approached Liu Mengxian, they all became unstable, their power diminished several levels, and they were annihilated by another bolt of lightning, with a tendency to push back.

It has to be said that compared to Liu Mengxian, the uncrowned queen, Yan Ziming, the Thunder Spirit, is still a bit too young.

In terms of elemental control, she couldn't gain the upper hand, which was unbelievable for an elemental spirit.

Yan Ziming fought back tenaciously for a few more moves, unleashing all her strongest attacks, but Liu Mengxian still easily broke through them, and then she stopped her fierce offensive.

Liu Mengxian smiled slightly, "Out of ideas?"

"Hmph! It's your turn to make a move!" Yan Ziming snorted, feeling utterly frustrated.

Since she became a lightning spirit, when has she ever been at a disadvantage in a contest of lightning element?

Sizzle s ......

Liu Mengxian's move is coming.

The thunderous element, as vast as the sea, gathered before her, compressing inward to form a translucent blue-purple 'wall' that moved forward at a slow speed, yet easily crushed the space in front of her. Yan Ziming felt as if an eternity of time was pressing down upon her, and no matter how powerful she used her methods, she could not shake this 'wall' even slightly, not even as a thunder spirit.

hum!

Yan Ziming's hair was crystal clear and flying everywhere, making her herself transparent. She had pushed the power of the Thunder Spirit to its limit, and what followed was an astonishing consumption that even she found terrifying, almost several times faster than her recovery speed.

The spear of victory slowly pierced out, striking the wall. Yan Ziming's hand immediately felt an immense weight and broke.

But the spear of victory also successfully pierced the wall, causing several cracks to appear on its surface. Then, as if it had disintegrated from the inside, it shattered into countless particles of light.

"What...is this...?" A bead of cold sweat slid down Yan Ziming's cheek as she forced a question.

"A supreme application of the elements is called the Wall of Elements." Liu Mengxian, who always answered her questions without reservation, demonstrated it to her again, as easily as plucking a flower with her fingers.

Yan Ziming slumped to the ground, her weak voice indicating that she was truly under immense pressure.

"Speaking of which... I haven't asked Xian'er what your second path is yet...."

"Elemental resonance".

"[Monster...]" Upon hearing this answer, Yan Ziming rolled his eyes and muttered to himself.

Emotional Fairy's own path is entirely geared towards 'seizing power'!

Taking back his previous thoughts, Yan Ziming now seriously doubted whether Lei Ling's identity was truly dispensable to Xian'er.

32. The Supreme Creation

After resting for a while, Yan Ziming finally had the mind to recall what Liu Mengxian had just mentioned about the supreme application of elements—the Wall of Elements.

Even now, thinking back on it still makes her feel lingering fear.

If she weren't a lightning spirit with a kingly control over the lightning element, she probably wouldn't have been able to break through that elemental wall at all.

"What the hell is that?"

It was only described as a supreme application of elements, but Yan Zimo couldn't understand it; he knew what it was but not why it was so.

Liu Mengxian gracefully sat down beside her, gently and carefully taking Yan Ziming's broken hand in her hands, and said:
