Acai's Sky

★Xingxu Guiding the Way·Searching for the Remaining Monument

The salty sea breeze blew up Ah Cai's newly dyed silver hair. She slumped on the suspended crystal chair with her legs crossed. The moment she bit into the spiritual fruit, the juice splashed out and dripped along her fingertips onto the ground covered with star sand.

Suddenly, she sat up straight and kicked away the floating starlight at her feet. "Zhitong! Where are all our generals? Are they all out farming for shards of light?"

The gilded light tore through the clouds, and the wisdom pupil transformed into an ancient mirror, hovering in the air with a buzzing sound.

Runes on the mirror surface swam like living creatures, suddenly condensing into words: "Young Master, do you think everyone is like you, treating completing quests like an island vacation?"

A whip of light suddenly extended from the mirror, accurately sweeping away the fruit core in Ah Cai's hand and throwing it into the sea of ​​stars. "Hurry and hand over the fragments! My virtual treasure house simulation shows that the transformation of these fragments will begin soon... Hurry and hand over the fragments!"

"and many more!"

Ah Cai suddenly tore open her collar and dug out a white fragment from the interlayer of the jade pendant.

The surface of the object was outlining the veins of mountains and rivers at a speed visible to the naked eye, and as the faint light flowed, it seemed as if clouds and mist were rising.

"Look, old antique! This thing started to mutate in my arms. Could it be a spirit?"

The pupil of wisdom suddenly transformed into a giant mirror hundreds of feet in size, and thirty-six golden light circles bloomed layer by layer, covering the fragments.

Ripples appeared on the mirror surface, and the ancient hexagrams surged like the tide.

"Autonomous evolution... the prototype of the Heavenly Dao..."

Two bare arms suddenly extended from the edge of the mirror, clamped Ah Cai's collar, and lifted her into the air. The mirror body vibrated and hummed with a hint of urgency: "Hurry to the main divine space! If this god-given treasure is discovered by other forces... I..."

"let me go!"

Ah Cai fluttered in the air like a fish out of water, her silver hair blowing up into fluffy dandelions. "Zhi Tong, you vengeful person! Protect your island. I'm going to go do the quests."

After saying that, he took his animals into a deep blue ball of fragmented light.

Zhitong changed his shape and turned into a three-headed doll.

"Tsk, can you really escape? Fragments like this are hard to come by once in a million years. Do you really think you can steal them? The Lord God has a monitoring system..."

……

The Stardust Ancient Posthouse, suspended in the cracks of the broken galaxy, is like a forgotten ancient copper coin, emitting a faint but tenacious light in the eternal darkness.

The main body of the station is made of huge star beast skeletons and unknown alloys. Glittering runes flow between the bones, barely resisting the violent and disordered stardust flow and space undercurrents from the outside world.

The inn hall was filled with interstellar travelers, wounded warriors, and hurried intelligence dealers. The air was filled with low-quality energy liquid, the smell of blood, and a dusty smell called "despair."

The shadow of the regional war started by the Lord God is like a cold giant hand, strangling the throat of every living being.

Ah Cai sat in front of a black jade table in the corner of the hall. The table looked ordinary but was actually engraved with intricate breath-concealing runes.

She did not deliberately show off, but the calm demeanor that had been tempered through countless copies, as well as the faintly flowing "wealth" that almost turned into substance, made her like a pearl in a turbid stream, attracting awe and greedy gazes.

She was wearing a seemingly simple long dress made of moon-white cloud brocade, but the hem of the skirt was secretly embroidered with flowing galaxies and a golden toad holding a pearl, and her movements were full of brilliance.

Her silver-white hair was loosely tied up with a simple purple jade hairpin. The Pixiu carved on the hairpin had its eyes slightly open, as if swallowing and spitting out invisible wealth.

There were no ordinary drinks on the table, but instead a few energy crystals of astonishing purity, which were being gnawed as snacks by several "little beasts" of various shapes and full of spirituality, making crisp "crunching" sounds.

"Squeak! Master, this 'Blazing Sun Crystal' has a really strong flavor! It's even better than the 'Dark Blue Ice Core' I had last time!"

A little mouse the size of a palm, with fur all over its body like molten gold and eyes as bright as two top-grade rubies - Fu Jinshu Jin Yuanbao, was holding a fist-sized red crystal, gnawing on it until sparks flew and its beard trembled with satisfaction. It was born with an almost fanatical obsession with height.

Next to it, a slightly larger Di Tu Raccoon Dog, the Golden Raccoon Dog, which looked like a small mink but had a coat of glossy fur that seemed to be dripping with liquid gold, curled its lips secretly when it heard the words, and played with a crystal stone with an ochre halo in its claws.

"No, Boss, how can I know about brute force? 'Essence of Wu Earth' is the ultimate simplicity, it nourishes the essence, understand?"

It licked slowly and leisurely, with a faint, steady breath of the earth flowing around it.

A furry little animal, like the purest cloud, the mythical beast 朏朏·Tuantuan, lay quietly on Acai's lap.

It exudes a soft white light that is calming to the mind, and occasionally extends its pink little tongue to gently lick Acai's fingers.

It seemed to have no interest in gnawing on the crystal, but was just enjoying the comfort of its master. The pure breath silently dispelled the negative emotions that permeated the surroundings.

In the shadow of the table corner, a large dog with a sturdy body, black fur and only a silver moon mark shining on its forehead - the divine beast Tengu Feiyue - stood with its ears erect in vigilance, its dark green eyes like the most accurate scanner, coldly scanning every corner of the hall.

It guards the safety of its master, and any malicious gaze cannot escape its perception.

Behind Acai, Xuantian, a palm-sized black tortoise with a mysterious star map naturally engraved on its shell, was closing his eyes to rest.

Its breathing is long, and every exhalation subtly draws the thin power of the surrounding stars, which flows endlessly on the tortoise shell, performing silent deduction.

A tomb guardian beast, Glutinous Rice Dumpling, with an ancient and mysterious shape, squatting like a stone lion, but with eyes burning with faint soul fire, lies quietly beside Xuantian, emitting a force field that absorbs and suppresses ominous things.

Farther away, a mythical beast named Bifang Brahma, with feathers as brilliant as the burning sunset, standing on one leg, was gracefully combing its tail feathers. Occasionally, it would look up, and the flames of purification danced in its red eyes, making those with ulterior motives dare not look directly at it.

"Miss, the energy supply has been settled by the post station, and the loss is within expectations." A cold, pleasant, and calm female voice sounded.

The speaker was Tong Jiaqi, an interstellar anthropomorphic intelligent robot with a perfect human female appearance but skin that glowed with the cold light of a high-grade alloy.

She stood by, her fingers swiping quickly in the air, calling up the holographic data panel, and efficiently handling various chores.

Tong Shishan, who was standing next to her, had a similar appearance but a more lively and agile temperament. She was controlling several miniature floating probes to shuttle between the cracks in the damaged dome of the station, collecting data on the star field environment, with data streams flashing rapidly in her eyes.

"Oh, I see."

Ah Cai responded, tapping the table unconsciously with her fingertips.

She looked lazy, but her powerful spiritual sense was like an invisible spider web, already covering the entire station and the surrounding star fields.
