Chapter 131: The Essence of Water Spiritual Roots
The mysteries of Spiritual Law are endless.
Each additional type of Spiritual Root significantly increases the mysteries that can be explored.
After Yun Ye awakened his Spiritual Roots, he immediately conducted experiments to explore the essence of the Water Spiritual Root.
Sure enough.
If the Fire Spiritual Root transmits energy out of thin air and controls the form of energy, then the Water Spiritual Root manipulates liquid materials and creates liquid materials.
The Water Spiritual Root often manifests as the condensation of water flow, mainly due to the high amount of water vapor in the air, which is relatively easy to perceive, so it is generally centered around water control.
If one can recognize gases like oxygen and hydrogen, they could also gather them into water flow, creating a genuine “Water-Fire Spiritual Root” without the need for the Fire Spiritual Root’s involvement.
As a Water Spiritual Root user, Yun Ye particularly focused on the aspect of cooling.
Whether condensing water vapor from the air into liquid or gathering other substances into water flow, it all involved the cooling aspect.
However, although Yun Ye recognized the cooling aspect, no matter how he infused other attributes into the cooling aspect, the water flow would merely become ultra-low temperature without turning into ice.
From Yun Ye’s perspective, this water clearly had a temperature below 0 degrees… At least when he poured spirit water into a tank, the water inside would immediately freeze, yet the spirit water itself would not freeze.
This peculiar phenomenon left Yun Ye puzzled, and he continuously sought modern knowledge.
Then, in a corner, he found a description regarding water not freezing at low temperatures.
“Condensation nucleus?”
Since this memory was so distant, Yun Ye couldn’t recall it right away. If someone like him, lacking research skills, were to investigate, even with some scientific thinking, discovering this issue would be quite difficult.
The so-called condensation nucleus refers to particles of dust or other substances that can merge with or absorb water.
When a condensation nucleus exists, if the water’s temperature drops below zero degrees, it will crystallize around the condensation nucleus and continue to expand, ultimately forming the macroscopic phenomenon of ice.
However, without a condensation nucleus, while water can still freeze, the required temperature would be lower.
Even under special conditions, water can remain unfrozen at minus thirty or forty degrees.
The water flow gathered by the Water Spiritual Root is precisely such a special case; it is not that it is pure, as purity would not be suppressed by the Thunder Spiritual Root…
The true reason the Water Spiritual Root cannot freeze lies in its composition of half spirit energy and half matter.
As long as a user of Water Spiritual Roots wishes to control the water flow, that flow cannot be entirely composed of water; it will undoubtedly mix in some spirit energy.
And this spirit energy causes the water to flow and purifies the impurities within; any ice crystals that form are immediately eliminated, so no matter how low the temperature, freezing is impossible unless Yun Ye gives up on offensiveness.
As long as no manipulation is performed, the water flow created by the Water Spiritual Root can freeze instantly.
From this, it becomes clear why the synthesis method for the Ice Element is “Earth + Water.”
Earth serves as a condensation nucleus, while water cools down to become ice.
Finally, Earth can control the solid.
If the Ice Element cannot be manipulated freely, resulting in destructive capacity far surpassing that of the Water Spiritual Root, then it is a meaningless and erroneous fusion.
Each type of dual attributes is a new power formed by merging the advantages of two Spiritual Roots.
The power that can be unleashed far exceeds that of a single Spiritual Root.
While Water and Fire Spiritual Roots seem to oppose each other, they do not face limitations in the context of dual attributes.
Because dual attributes are about removing the flaws and utilizing the strengths.
“Let me see if my idea is correct!”
……
Outside Baishi Town, the Great Disaster Transformation officially began, and a large number of corpses turned into undead beings and live zombies.
The Dao Domain that previously remained also completely vanished, leaving no trace behind, no longer suppressing the demons.
— The moment of rotation is triggered by some Dao rules, and during this time, those Dao rules will become ineffective.
In other words.
“Ah! Ah!”
“There are demons, no, the dead are living again! Help, help, help!”
All the villages fell into chaos, and the screams echoed throughout the night without end.
Those who had died from being eaten now trembled and stood back up, transforming into new undead beings and live zombies.
The disaster spread like a plague, devouring all living souls.
Countless people awoke from nightmares, and upon seeing the blood-red world, their sanity shattered as they fled in madness.
Some died, but others were lucky and survived.
In the night, a woman desperately ran with three children, but she increasingly felt the world spinning around her. Finally, she pressed her hand against her thigh and could run no longer, gradually slowing down.
The oldest child was already twelve years old, a boy with wheat-colored skin. He saw his mother fall behind and cried out anxiously, “Mother, hurry, the demons are catching up!”
“Mother, Mother, where are we going? When can we stop?” The other two children also cried helplessly.
“Don’t cry, go to Baishi Town. There’s a strong army there. Once you reach Baishi Town, you can stop. It’s not far; you’ll get there quickly. Don’t stop until you do,” the woman said, forcing a difficult smile. After speaking, she pulled her eldest son closer and said, “Tian Jing, look…”
She moved her hand away from her thigh, and Tian Jing froze in place as he saw a deep wound down to the bone.
The wound had bled a lot, completely staining her clothes red, but it was hard to see clearly in the darkness, and everyone else was too panicked to notice.
Having sustained such a severe injury and running all this way, it was clear she was relying purely on willpower to keep going; reaching this point was nearly the end for her.
The most critical part was that the wound was entirely black and gray, likely from poison. She wouldn’t survive this ordeal, and continuing to run was meaningless.
So, the woman looked into Tian Jing’s eyes and said slowly, “Mother can’t run anymore. You take them to Baishi Town… Don’t worry about me, do you understand?”
“Mother… No! I don’t want you to die!” Tian Jing’s tears flowed freely as he tightly gripped his mother’s arm, pulling her forward.
But the woman was resolute, shaking off Tian Jing’s hand and pushing him ahead, shouting, “I told you to run fast! Take care of your younger siblings, don’t make Mother angry anymore!”
Though the demons had been drawn away by others, they would eventually catch up. If they didn’t reach a safe place, they would certainly die!
She was already a dead woman; it would be better to lure the demons away, increasing her children’s chances of escape.
After saying this, the woman grit her teeth and dragged herself in another direction.
Not far away, faint roars could already be heard, growing closer.
“Run!”
With the woman’s last urging shout, Tian Jing grabbed his younger siblings’ hands and ran desperately into the distance, running toward…
Baishi Town!
He didn’t dare look back because he knew how terrifying this world was and that no miracles would happen.
As a poor person, all disasters would befall them, but… but there would never be hope!
