Legend of the Embroiderer

"It's on that frozen planet!"

The fusion entity pointed to a huge blue planet in front of them and said, "The energy fluctuations of the fragments are coming from there."

The Ark landed on the frozen planet. As everyone stepped out of the cabin, a biting wind swept over them, and even the energy shields were covered in a layer of frost.

The planet's surface is covered by a layer of ice thousands of meters thick, and the ice beneath our feet is as hard as iron, emitting a ghostly blue light.

"The primordial fragments are beneath the ice."

The fused entity said, mobilizing its primordial energy to transform into a light pickaxe, and began to excavate the ice layer.

Flame and the Lord of Nothingness immediately joined in, their life energy and the power of nothingness intertwining, rapidly melting and shattering the ice.

After digging for about an hour, a rumbling sound suddenly came from beneath the ice. The ground began to shake, a huge crack opened in the ice, and a giant ice beast rushed out of the crack.

The ice beast was made entirely of ice crystals, its eyes flashed with red light, and its body radiated energy similar to that of the Origin Fragment but even more violent.

"It's the ice beast guarding the fragment!" the primordial consciousness of order shouted. "Its energy contains the power of the primordial fragment, everyone be careful!"

The ice beast roared and slammed its massive claws toward the group.

Canglan immediately mobilized spacetime energy, freezing the ice beast's claws in mid-air. The fused entity then seized the opportunity to rush forward, its lightsaber aimed at the ice beast's head.

But as soon as the lightsaber touched the ice beast's head, it was blocked by an invisible energy shield.

The ice beast swung its tail, throwing Canglan and the fusion body away at the same time. Then it opened its huge mouth and spewed out a cold beam of energy towards everyone.

"Use the energy of the primordial fragments to fight it!"

The fusion entity shouted and threw the fragments in its hand into the air.

The fragment emitted a bright light and collided with the ice beast's energy beam.

The two energies canceled each other out, and the resulting shockwave shattered all the surrounding ice.

The ice beast seemed to be enraged, and its body suddenly split into countless smaller ice beasts, which attacked the group from all directions.

The group immediately stood back to back, each releasing their energy to defend against the little ice beast's attack.

"This can't go on, there are too many little ice beasts!"

While fending off the attacks, Yan Jin said, "We must find the Ice Beast's core and defeat it in one fell swoop!"

Upon closer inspection, the fused entity discovered that all the little ice beasts' energy originated from the depths of the crack.

She immediately flew toward the crack, and sure enough, at the bottom of the crack, a huge ice crystal was suspended there, and in the center of the ice crystal was a second fragment of the origin.

"We've found the core!" the fusion entity shouted, mobilizing its primordial energy and shooting it toward the ice crystal.

The ice crystal shattered instantly, revealing a second fragment of its origin. The split ice beasts instantly lost their energy support, turning into ice shards and dissipating into the air.

The fused entity picked up the second fragment and placed it together with the first fragment.

The two fragments immediately resonated, their light becoming even brighter and pointing towards the western region of the cosmic sea.

That was the place where they had previously searched for fragments of the Chaos Origin Pearl.

"It seems that all the fragments of the origin are scattered in various regions of the cosmic sea," the fused entity said, its eyes filled with determination. "We must find all the fragments as soon as possible and bring them back to the core of the origin, otherwise it will trigger even more crises."

The group immediately boarded the ark and flew towards the western part of the Cosmic Sea.

Along the way, the fused entity continuously studied the resonance patterns of the two fragments, attempting to find the locations of more fragments through them.

She discovered that the resonance between the fragments not only guided her but also conveyed vague information that seemed to hint at a huge secret.

Upon arriving in the western region, the light from the primordial fragments pointed to an abandoned starship graveyard.

Countless wrecked starships float here, mostly relics from ancient times, and the air is filled with decaying energy.

"The fragments are inside that largest starship!" the amalgamation said, pointing to a colossal starship that was tens of thousands of meters long.

The starship's hull was severely damaged, revealing a complex internal mechanical structure that looked mysterious and eerie.

The group boarded the starship, which was pitch black inside, with only the emergency lights emitting a faint red glow.

The corridor was lined with spiderweb-like wires, broken parts were scattered on the floor, and a pungent metallic smell filled the air.

"Be careful, there might be danger here."

The Lord of Nothingness released the power of nothingness, illuminating the surrounding environment. "Ancient starships often had automatic defense systems."

Sure enough, after walking only a few steps, the walls on both sides of the corridor suddenly opened, and countless laser beams shot towards the group.

Canglan immediately mobilized spacetime energy to freeze the laser, while Yanjin used life energy to destroy the energy source of the defense system.

The group continued forward and arrived at the starship's main control room.

The control panel in the center of the main control room was damaged, and the screen was covered with cracks. Only the central energy tank was still flickering with a faint light.

The third fragment of the origin is embedded in the energy slot.

The fusion entity stepped forward, intending to retrieve the fragment, but just as her hand was about to touch it, the control panel suddenly lit up, and lines of ancient text appeared on the screen.

The consciousness of the origin of order immediately deciphered the text, but its expression grew increasingly solemn.

"What do these words record?" Yan Jin asked anxiously.

"This is an exploration vessel from the ancient cosmic sea."

The Origin of Order consciousness slowly said, "According to written records, in ancient times, a great catastrophe occurred in the Cosmic Sea, causing the Origin Core to shatter and its fragments to scatter throughout the Cosmic Sea."

The cause of this disaster was the emergence of 'original traitors' within the cosmic sea, who attempted to steal the power of the original core, leading to its uncontrolled explosion.

Everyone was shocked. They had never heard of this ancient disaster, let alone the existence of the "Traitor of Origin".

"Who are the traitors of the origin? Do they still exist?" the fusion entity asked urgently.

"The text does not record the specific identities of the traitors, only that they disappeared after the disaster, and may be hiding in some corner of the cosmic sea, waiting for another opportunity to steal the core power of the origin."

The Origin of Order consciousness said, "Furthermore, the text also mentions that when all the Origin fragments are gathered, the seal on the traitors will be broken, and they will reappear to try to complete the plan that was not finished back then."

The merged entity was filled with unease; she hadn't expected that collecting all the fragments would break the traitor's seal.

However, if the fragments are not collected, the original core cannot be restored to its original state, and the cosmic sea will always face a crisis.

"No matter what, we must collect all the pieces."

The fusion entity stated firmly, "Even if traitors do appear, we have the ability to fight them!"

She took out the third fragment of the origin and placed it together with the first two.

The resonant energy of the fragments is even stronger, pointing towards the southern region of the cosmic sea.

The starship suddenly trembled violently, the entire starship graveyard began to collapse, and countless wrecked starships crashed down on them.

"Run! The starship graveyard is about to collapse!" Yan Jin shouted, and everyone immediately ran towards the Ark.

The Ark struggled to emerge from the collapsed starship graveyard and flew towards the southern part of the cosmic ocean.

The merged entity looked at the three fragments in its hand, its heart filled with complex emotions. It knew that a new crisis was quietly brewing, and they must prepare to meet the challenges to come.

Little did they know that in some dark corner of the cosmic sea, a black figure was watching their every move, a strange smile playing on its lips.

This figure was none other than one of the traitors from the ancient past; he had waited for this day for far too long…
