Genius in the whole system: The useless young lady dominates the world

This is a desolate and lifeless space, devoid of flowers, trees, birds, beasts, insects, and fish; only endless darkness and silence.

The air was filled with a dense demonic aura, several times stronger than the one they had felt in the Misty Canyon, making it suffocating.

Lu Lingxi, Zhuque, and Huanyue stood at the entrance to the final checkpoint, their faces showing solemn expressions.

"The demonic energy here is so dense!" Zhuque said, frowning.

“It seems this is the location of the Yellow Springs Root,” Lu Lingxi said.

The half-piece of ancient jade in her hand was trembling slightly, emitting a strong sensation that guided her deeper into the final challenge.

"Everyone be careful, there might be danger here," Lu Lingxi said.

The three walked cautiously, their spiritual senses constantly alert, observing everything around them. Suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew by, and the surrounding scenery began to change.

The previously empty space began to show twisted cracks, from which black demonic energy surged out. The demonic energy quickly condensed and transformed into ferocious demonic creatures that pounced on the three of them.

"This is... a demon!" Huan Yue exclaimed in surprise.

Lu Lingxi's expression changed. She sensed that these demonic creatures were even stronger than the Blood Fiend Puppets she had encountered before.

"Everyone be careful, these demons are not so easy to deal with," Lu Lingxi said, holding the Flying Snow Sword, she flashed forward to meet the demons.

Vermilion Bird transformed into a giant fire phoenix, spewing flames at the demons, while Illusion Moon transformed into a gust of wind, weaving among the demons, her wind blades constantly slashing at their vital points.

These demons were indeed powerful. Not only were they numerous, but they were also fearless. Even after being struck by the Flying Snow Sword and burned by the Vermilion Bird's flames, they continued to attack the three of them relentlessly.

Lu Lingxi and the others gradually felt strained. Their spiritual energy was being constantly depleted, while the number of demons seemed endless.

"This won't do, our spiritual energy will be depleted!" Lu Lingxi said.

"But there are just too many of these monsters!" Suzaku said breathlessly.

"I have a way!" Just then, Huan Yue suddenly spoke up.

He took a deep breath, formed hand seals, and chanted incantations. A strong aura of wind element emanated from his body.

"Sweep away the clouds!" Huan Yue shouted, and a huge tornado formed around his body, sweeping up the surrounding demons and pulling them into it.

Lu Lingxi and Zhuque seized the opportunity to rush deeper into the final checkpoint...

The tornado lasted for a while before finally dissipating, and Huan Yue, having exhausted her spiritual power, collapsed to the ground.

"Huan Yue!" Lu Lingxi Yao quickly helped Huan Yue up.

"I'm fine..." Huan Yue said weakly, "Let's go quickly..."

Lu Lingxi nodded, helped Huan Yue up, and together with Zhu Que, continued to advance deeper into the final level.

Unbeknownst to them, the monsters swept away by the tornado would reassemble and continue their pursuit.

……

Lu Lingxi, Yao, and the other two dodged the horde of demons and finally reached the deepest part of the Tomb of the Underworld.

The scene before them was more gloomy and terrifying than any previous trial ground. There were no sun, moon, or stars overhead, only a chaotic darkness.

A suffocating aura of death permeated the air, as if this were a forbidden zone for life and a graveyard for souls.

"Is this... the final stage?"

Huan Yue's voice trembled slightly. He gripped Lu Lingxi Yao's sleeve tightly, his body shaking slightly. Even as a swift wolf in human form, he could not completely conceal his instinctive fear of this environment.

Zhuque's expression was also very solemn. She was surrounded by faint flames, trying to dispel the surrounding darkness and cold, but the demonic energy here was too dense, and even her Nirvana Fire seemed somewhat weak.

Lu Lingxi took a deep breath, suppressing her inner unease. The half-piece of ancient jade in her hand was now emitting a strong light, and the frequency of its vibration was getting faster and faster, as if urging her to move forward.

Lu Lingxi Yao's gaze swept around and finally landed on the central area of ​​this space, where there was a huge root-like plant, dark red in color, with thick roots that were deeply embedded in the cracked ground, as if drawing something from it. The surface of the roots was covered with fine lines, which pulsated rhythmically like blood vessels, and each pulsation emitted a powerful spiritual energy fluctuation.

However, this fluctuation of spiritual energy was mixed with wisps of black energy, which coiled around the roots like venomous snakes, emitting an unsettling aura.

The surrounding ground, centered on the Yellow Spring Root, was cracked in a radial pattern, as if all life had been drained away, and the spiritual energy had become abnormally chaotic.

"That is... the Root of the Underworld?" Huan Yue's voice was somewhat hoarse as he pointed at the strange plant, his eyes filled with shock and fear.

Lu Lingxi nodded, her gaze fixed on the Yellow Spring Root. A strong premonition welled up in her heart. This Yellow Spring Root was even more bizarre than Bai Xiaochen had described. The demonic energy emanating from it was so thick that it was nauseating.

"This Yellow Spring Root... seems to be corrupted by demonic energy." Zhuque's voice was low, and her eyes were full of vigilance.

Lu Lingxi also noticed this. She carefully observed the Yellow Spring Root and found that the black energy did not come from the outside, but emanated from the Yellow Spring Root itself. This indicated that the interior of the Yellow Spring Root had been eroded by demonic energy.

"It seems that there is indeed a problem with the Yellow Spring Root cultivated in Immortal Doctor's Dock," Lu Lingxi said in a deep voice.

She discovered that around the Root of the Underworld, on the ground and walls, there were some strange runes and array patterns that were faintly visible, emitting a dim light.

“There are restrictions here,” Lu Lingxi said. “It seems that taking the Yellow Spring Root will not be easy.”
