Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1770

All arrays in the world would require a foundation.

For mystic masters, spiritual energy was their core, and for the demon clan, theirs was supernatural strength.

But no matter whether one was a mystic master or demon, they all needed to absorb the world's spiritual energy for cultivation.

The Dragon Vein, however, represented the fortune of the heavens and earth and the very source of spiritual energy. This was why Shannon had once joked that Benjamin was a walking spiritual energy extractor.

He could sustain the world's spiritual energy and erase it just as easily.

The golden vortex struck the array at the bottom of the sea with immense force. As the golden light was absorbed and cultivated by the divinity-cultivating array, it simultaneously siphoned away the spiritual energy sustaining the array itself.

The difference was that the energy used to fuel the array had long been putrefied. For every bit of energy Benjamin absorbed, he'd suffer damage in return.

But at this moment, he no longer cared. It was now simply a matter of seeing if the array would first consume his golden light, or if his golden light would drain away the tainted energy sustaining the array and bring about its collapse.

Golden light surged violently within the array and turned the entire sea into a shimmering gold ocean. The putrefied sea, which had been advancing relentlessly, was now being purified by the golden vortex.

Everyone stared at the scene beneath the sea in astonishment and wondered what Benjamin was up to, while the Stone Turtle understood.

A trace of sorrow flickered in its deep, murky eyes. Yet as the golden light surged, it felt a small portion of spiritual energy flowing toward it.

Even when everything was poured into breaking the array, Benjamin still spared a fraction of his spiritual energy to replenish the Stone Turtle's strength.

The Stone Turtle roared as its massive body exploded into action. Its attacks grew more ferocious as its tail, imbued with the spiritual energy of a legendary creature, crashed upon the ocean. It raised titanic waves and threatened to crush every last one of the filthy intruders.

…

Luke arrived at the sea with Shannon and the others, only to find themselves surrounded by an overwhelming expanse of dense black smoke.
