When I woke up, I wanted to go home.

The first time I saw Xiaotu was when the Peace Chamber of Commerce trapped him.

Why didn't Zhu Chongjiu consider this thing to be the source of earth at the time?

Because Zhu Chongjiu felt that the source of the five elements of heaven and earth could not possibly be trapped by a few emperor-level powerhouses, and they almost captured it.

After chatting with Xiao Tu for a while, Zhu Chongjiu also resolved his doubts.

Xiao Tu explained, "At that time, those people took out a rare type of soil."

This soil, when used to fuse with itself, will make it stronger.

However, what I didn't expect was...

The moment I came into contact with this soil, I was enveloped by a special formation.

This formation prevents him from connecting with the ground beneath his feet.

not only that!

This formation also sealed away my ability to control the earth element.

This forced him to fight solely on instinct.

Zhu Chongjiu understood immediately: even the best marksman is useless without a gun!

However, this also made Zhu Chongjiu realize the power of the formation.

With just a few Emperor-level powerhouses, they were able to control the source of the five elements of heaven and earth.

After Zhu Chongjiu marveled at the power of the formation, he had some doubts.

"This kind of formation doesn't seem to exist in this world."

Even if this world has such a powerful formation, it's impossible for it to be activated by just six people.

This was clearly the work of a master with an exceptional understanding of formations.

Such a person could not possibly exist on the continent of the Forsaken Gods!

Could it be that Xiao Feng got it from the world above?

Zhu Chongjiu temporarily put aside his questions about the Peace Chamber of Commerce!

Turning back, with a somewhat serious expression, she asked Xiao Tu, "Then why do you feel close to me?"

After hearing Zhu Chongjiu's question, Xiao Tu kept drawing circles on his head with his little finger, and pondered for a moment with a puzzled expression.

Then he raised the finger that had been drawing circles above his head, pointed upwards, patted his chest, and simultaneously communicated with Zhu Chongjiu in his mind, saying, "I don't know either?"

There's just a subconscious force guiding me to help you.

I'm just following this instinct.

After sensing Xiao Tu's message, Zhu Chongjiu also fell into deep thought!

This brings things back to square one.

Who brought me here?

What is the purpose of bringing myself here?

From the liquid from the source of water that I consumed, to the source of fire that I followed all the way.

And that person left me with the supreme divine weapon, an innate treasure!

In any case, I am just an ordinary person, as ordinary as can be.

Zhu Chongjiu had thought about this before.

Are there other people in this world just like me?

However, after living in this world for so many years and exploring the paths I've walked, I can be fairly certain that I am truly all alone.

After trying to figure things out for a while and still having no clue, Zhu Chongjiu could only resort to his best skill: "brainwashing himself"!

When I was in school, my teacher taught me to prioritize answering the questions I knew how to answer during exams.

The situation is the same now. We can only choose what we can do first. As for what we can't do, or what we don't even know how to do, we can only ask our teachers later!

Although there are no teachers in this world to teach me.

However, there is no shortage of teachers on the road ahead.

From Tongli at the very beginning, to Dean Wang later, then to Shenxu Wang, then to the void of Flaming Mountain, and so on... it can even be said that many people Zhu Chongjiu encountered on this continent were his teachers!

As I learn and grow stronger along the way, the final answer will surely be revealed.

After Zhu Chongjiu finished brainwashing himself and his confidence soared, he asked Xiao Tu, "Then how will you help me?"

Just as Zhu Chongjiu was lost in thought and somewhat dazed, Xiao Tu, who was playing happily with Xiao Hei, suddenly heard Zhu Chongjiu's voice, turned around abruptly, and then ran towards Zhu Chongjiu without hesitation.

As Xiao Tu got closer and closer to Zhu Chongjiu, something amazing happened—Xiao Tu's body began to gradually turn into tiny grains of sand!

The sand grains seemed to possess a life of their own, shimmering with a faint earthy light in the air as they drifted and scattered.

Before Zhu Chongjiu could even ask Xiao Tu what he wanted to do, Xiao Tu had already appeared in front of him.

The little girl that appeared before Zhu Chongjiu was no longer the cute and innocent child she once was. Instead, she wore an earth-colored robe that matched Zhu Chongjiu's figure.

Faced with such a strange sight, Zhu Chongjiu did not panic or shout out in alarm.

Instead, he remained unusually calm, silently extending his right hand and carefully touching the earth-colored robe that Xiao Tu had transformed into.

The moment Zhu Chongjiu's fingertips touched the robe, the robe, which had been motionless, seemed to come alive.

Like quicksand, it began to gently envelop Zhu Chongjiu's entire body.

From a distance, the scene looked as if Zhu Chongjiu was simply wearing an ordinary coat.

However, upon closer inspection, one will be surprised to find that this seemingly ordinary earth-colored coat actually hides a secret.

Its surface sand is always in a slow flow, as if it has its own unique rhythm and cadence, making it mysterious and wonderful!

After Xiao Tu finished his work, Zhu Chongjiu looked down at his new outfit and frowned, saying, "This color—it's really tacky!"

Little Earth, even though you are the source of the earth, can't we reform and innovate a bit?

Shall we go for a more trendy color?

Then came Zhu Chongjiu's repeated complaints, and Xiao Hei watching as Zhu Chongjiu's new clothes transformed into a kaleidoscope of colors!

Finally, after a sigh, Zhu Chongjiu helplessly announced, "Xiao Tu, it seems neither of us has the talent for fashion design."

Let's just go back to the most ordinary white robe!

And Little Earth, could you please retract your earth elemental aura when it's not necessary? It's too conspicuous!

With Zhu Chongjiu's final approval.

Zhu Chongjiu was now wearing a brand new off-white robe.

Furthermore, Xiao Tu followed Zhu Chongjiu's advice and suppressed his extremely strong earth element aura.

Looking at this white robe now, it seems like just an ordinary garment made of some unknown material.

Time flies, and another month has passed!

Zhu Chongjiu was not idle during this month.

I've been learning how to use this white robe and how to coordinate with Xiao Tu in battle, in preparation for any unforeseen circumstances.

The white robe was primarily used for defense.

Of course, if Zhu Chongjiu uses his internal energy to launch an attack using earth element, it can also be applied directly to the white robe.

After all, the essence of this white robe is the source of earth!

Over the past month, Zhu Chongjiu's understanding of the source of earth has greatly increased through communication and understanding with Xiaotu.

However, it is still inferior to the source of fire.

After all, Zhu Chongjiu had spent several years cultivating the Source of Fire.

Now, Zhu Chongjiu believes that the Peace Chamber of Commerce will undergo some major changes in the near future.

Therefore, Zhu Chongjiu did not have a deep understanding of the source of earth.

Instead, their plan was to quickly gather the five elements' essence, then flee, thwarting the Peace Chamber of Commerce's plans.

At this moment, Zhu Chongjiu slowly raised his head, his gaze seemingly able to pierce through the endless darkness, looking straight up at the top of the cave.

His gaze was deep and sharp, as if it could pierce through layers of soil thousands of meters deep and reach directly into the unreachable void.

Meanwhile, Little Black, standing to the side, seemed to sense some kind of determination deep in its owner's heart. It gently wagged its tail and let out a low whimper, indicating that it was ready to set off at any time.

Zhu Chongjiu looked down at the brand-new clothes he was wearing, gently stroked the hem, then turned to Xiao Hei and said with a smile, "Xiao Hei, it's time for us to set off!"

Countless hardships and obstacles may await us ahead, but as long as we forge ahead bravely, we will surely overcome all difficulties and reach the place we yearn for.

After saying that, Zhu Chongjiu straightened his body, took firm steps, and flew towards the top of the cave. Xiao Hei followed closely behind him, like a black light!
