Rebirth with a Space to Counterattack and Abuse the Scumbag

"Get out of the way! That's the manifestation of the core energy of space! You can't touch it!" Xiao Kong's voice was shrill and piercing. I instinctively pulled my hand back, but the symbol seemed to have eyes, flying straight towards me, and then...

Merge into my body!

A powerful energy surged into my limbs and bones in an instant. I felt like a balloon about to burst, with every cell in my body expanding.

I groaned in pain, and then everything went white.

When I opened my eyes again, I found myself still standing in the space, but the scenery around me had changed dramatically.

The once lush and verdant medicinal herb field has now turned completely withered and yellow, and the water in the spiritual spring has become murky and turbid.

"What happened? My space..." I looked at everything in front of me in disbelief, my heart aching terribly.

I've painstakingly cultivated these medicinal herbs for so long, and they were almost ready to mature, but now...

I staggered to the edge of the spring, scooped up a handful of murky water, and a putrid smell hit my nose.

"Xiao Kong! What on earth is going on?!" I almost shouted, my voice trembling with tears.

"Master, I...I don't know..." Xiao Kong's voice also became weak and powerless, "The spatial energy is out of control, I...I can't control it either..."

My heart sank to the bottom.

Space out of control, medicinal herbs withering, spiritual springs polluted...

This is a disaster!

Is everything I've worked so hard to build going to go down the drain?

I collapsed to the ground, feeling as if all my strength had been drained away.

Am I being too greedy?

If I don't try to unlock those special abilities, will this kind of thing not happen?

A deep sense of powerlessness and frustration welled up inside me.

I hugged my knees tightly, buried my head between my arms, and tears streamed down my face silently.

"Xiao Kong, did I... mess up..." I said, choking back tears.

Suddenly, I felt a warm embrace envelop me, and a familiar voice whispered in my ear: "Don't rush..."

It felt like a warm, large hand gently stroking my hair. Gong Lin's voice was deep and reassuring: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Although he was outside of that space, I could clearly feel the warmth of his palm and smell the faint scent of pine wood on him, a unique aroma mixed with the smell of gunpowder, which gave me a strange sense of peace.

I took a deep breath, trying to calm my panicked emotions, and with a thought, I left the space.

As soon as I came out, I rushed into his arms and hugged him tightly, as if only in this way could I draw strength.

His aura was clearer, warm and powerful, making me feel incredibly safe.

I buried my face in his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, and my chaotic thoughts gradually calmed down.

“It’s okay,” he said, patting my back gently, his voice firm. “We’ll figure something out together.”

I looked up and saw his resolute eyes, and a glimmer of hope ignited in my heart.

Yes, I still have him. We'll face this together. What is there to be afraid of? I stepped out of his embrace, wiped away my tears, and tried to appear calm. I told him everything that had happened in the room. He listened quietly, his brow furrowed, a hint of worry flashing in his deep eyes.

After I finished speaking, he was silent for a moment, a complex light flashing in his deep eyes.

“I’ve thought of a way…” He paused, his gaze falling on the distant mountains, his tone meaningful, “Perhaps we can give it a try…” Gong Lin’s gaze returned from the distant mountains to my face, carrying a deep look that I couldn’t fathom.

“Xiao Qing, to stabilize the space, you’ll probably need to make some sacrifices.” He paused, his tone grave. “Try guiding some of the core energy back. This… will consume some of the space’s resources, especially the mature medicinal herbs and spiritual spring water.”

My heart sank.

Those medicinal herbs and spiritual spring water were cultivated with my painstaking efforts and time. Now I have to destroy a part of them with my own hands. How can I bear to do that?

"Is there no other way?" My voice trembled slightly, tinged with resentment.

Gong Lin shook his head. "At present, this is the safest approach. The core energy of the space is out of control, like a wild horse that has broken free. We must guide it back to the right track, otherwise the entire space may collapse." He grasped my hand, his tone firm. "I know this is difficult, but we must make a choice."

His words were like a bucket of cold water poured over my head, instantly sobering me up.

Yes, now is not the time to hesitate. If the space collapses, all my previous efforts will be in vain.

But those medicinal herbs...

I bit my lip, struggling internally.

Gong Lin seemed to sense my hesitation. He gently pulled me into his arms, his deep voice whispering in my ear, "Trust me, we will get through this together." The warmth and strength emanating from him gave me immense comfort and courage.

I took a deep breath and finally made up my mind.

"Okay, I'll listen to you." I raised my head, my gaze firm. "I'm going back to my space."

Following Gong Lin's method, I began to guide the return flow of the core energy of the space.

This process was more painful than I had imagined. Watching the once vibrant medicinal herbs gradually wither and the clear spring water turn murky, my heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.

But I suppressed the pain in my heart and meticulously carried out each step.

During the process of guiding the energy, I suddenly remembered that there was a special formation in the space that could perhaps be used to reduce the loss of resources.

I carefully manipulated the spatial energy, guiding it into the formation.

The formation emitted a soft light, slowly absorbing the violent energy and transforming it into a gentle force that nourished the surrounding plants.

To my delight, the medicinal herbs that were on the verge of withering were revitalized, and the murky spring water gradually became clear.

"We did it!" I exclaimed joyfully, and Gong Lin also showed a relieved smile.

Just then, a strange noise suddenly came from the depths of space, and the ground began to shake violently...

My expression changed drastically. "What's going on?" Before I could finish speaking, a dazzling white light shot out from the depths of space...

The white light was so bright that I couldn't open my eyes. I instinctively closed my eyes and covered my ears, but the deafening roar was still in my ears.

As the white light faded and the roaring sound gradually subsided, I tentatively opened my eyes.

What I saw before me stunned me.

The core area of ​​the space, which was originally just an empty flat area, now has an ancient altar!

The altar was made entirely of an unknown black stone, covered with densely packed strange symbols, exuding a mysterious and ancient aura.

"What...what is this?" I murmured to myself, my heart filled with shock and confusion.

Looking at the scene before me, I cautiously walked toward the altar.

As I approached the altar, the symbols seemed to come alive, emitting a faint glow and weaving into strange patterns in the air.

I felt a powerful energy emanating from the altar, causing the spatial power within my body to resonate as if it were trying to break free from my control.

I felt a chill run down my spine and quickly steadied myself, controlling the restless spatial power.

At that moment, I noticed a recessed circular area in the center of the altar, where something seemed to be placed.

Curious, I walked over to see what was going on.

However, just as my hand was about to touch that circular area, an invisible force suddenly appeared and jolted me back!

I staggered a few steps and almost fell, but luckily Gong Lin caught me in time.

"Xiao Kong, what happened?" I asked, still shaken.

Xiao Kong did not answer. "It seems that this area is protected by some kind of force, and I cannot get close to it for the time being."

I looked at the circular area in the center of the altar with a mix of reluctance and curiosity.

What exactly is this invisible force?

What secret is hidden behind it?

Why is there such a mysterious altar in my space?

A series of questions swirled in my mind, leaving me utterly confused.

I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself down.

Since we can't get close right now, let's wait and see.

Perhaps, once my spatial power becomes stronger, I will be able to unravel this mystery.

I turned and left the space, telling Gong Lin about the new changes. His brows were furrowed, and a complex light flickered in his deep eyes, as if he was thinking about something important.

"What are you thinking about?" I couldn't help but ask.

He snapped out of his reverie, looked at me, and a barely perceptible hint of worry flashed in his eyes. "I'm thinking that the appearance of this power might mean that your space isn't as safe as we thought."

His words made my heart sink.

Yes, it's really unusual for such a mysterious altar to suddenly appear in the space, and for an invisible force to protect it.

Is this force friendly or hostile?

Will it pose a threat to me?

I dared not think any further; my heart was filled with unease and worry.
