Earth Core Space Shows Clues, Origin Harmonization Breaks New Ground

A month after the Mortal Realm and Spirit Resonance Space formed an alliance, their cross-space integration efforts achieved their first results: the "Spirit Resonance Perception Art" taught by Spirit Resonance scholars allowed Mortal Realm cultivators to detect Origin fluctuations with greater precision, raising the Fusion Institute disciples' success rate in "three-race fusion" from thirty percent to seventy percent; the life and soul-suppressing cultivators dispatched by the Mortal Realm constructed a "Life Soul-Suppressing Array" beside the Spirit Resonance Spring in Spirit Resonance Space, successfully increasing the regeneration speed of the Spirit Resonance Origin by fifty percent and purifying nearly half of the turbid resonance impurities.

That day, within the Alliance of Myriad Arts' "Cross-Space Research Chamber," Su Muxue and a Spirit Resonance elder were studying the interconnection crystal together. As the Origin Resonance between the Mortal Realm and Spirit Resonance Space steadily deepened, the crystal's once-blurry second spatial coordinate gradually became clear—the space corresponding to those coordinates was named "Earth Core Space." According to the rune analysis, this space was centered on the "Earth Core Origin." Its cultivators excelled at controlling earth veins and forging ores, while the stability of its Earth Core Origin could perfectly compensate for the shortcomings in the Origin fluctuations of the Mortal Realm and Spirit Resonance Space.

"If the Earth Core Origin of Earth Core Space can merge with our Origins, it will not only reinforce the stability of the spatial interconnection array, but also provide the Stone Clan's ore forging with a new direction." Su Muxue's eyes brimmed with anticipation as she synchronized the coordinate information to Chen Fan and Lin Xiaohu. "We plan to activate the passage to Earth Core Space next week, but we must be more cautious this time—the more cross-space Origin contact there is, the greater the risk of disorder."

Chen Fan nodded. During this time, he had been studying methods to break through to the Myriad Arts Origin Realm, and he could now steadily control the symbiosis of four types of Origin. He took out a newly refined Symbiosis Core Crystal. "I fused the Origin essences of the Mortal Realm and Spirit Resonance Space into this. If we use it as the primary medium when activating the passage this time, it should reduce the risk of Origin rejection."

However, three days before the plan was set to begin, an accident suddenly occurred—the earth vein nodes of the Mortal Realm and the Spirit Resonance Springs of Spirit Resonance Space simultaneously experienced abnormal Origin fluctuations. The Earth Vein Power in the Mortal Realm became restless, and the ores in some erosion-resistant defensive arrays inexplicably shattered; meanwhile, black turbid currents rose within the Spirit Resonance Springs of Spirit Resonance Space, and the Spirit Resonance Origin, which had only just recovered, began to wither in reverse.

"It's cross-space Origin disorder!" The Spirit Resonance elder urgently contacted Chen Fan through a Communication Talisman, his voice thick with anxiety. "The Origins of the two races have resonated for too long. Though they formed a positive interaction, they have also produced an 'Origin impurity resonance'—trace remnants of erosion Origin within the Mortal Realm's earth veins have reacted with the turbid resonance impurities in the Spirit Resonance Springs, triggering a two-way disorder! If we do not resolve this in time, not only will both races' Origins be damaged, but the spatial interconnection array may be completely paralyzed!"

Chen Fan immediately gathered cultivators of the myriad races and Spirit Resonance scholars for an emergency meeting. At the meeting, Stone Clan craftsmen proposed using "Earth Core ores" to suppress the restless earth veins, but the Mortal Realm's reserves of Earth Core ore were limited and insufficiently pure; Spirit Clan scholars suggested using the "Spirit Resonance Purification Art" to clear away the turbid currents, only to discover that the impurities had already penetrated deep into the Origin core. Ordinary purification arts were completely ineffective.

"Perhaps we can combine the strengths of both races and develop an 'Origin Harmonizer.'" Su Muxue suddenly spoke, placing a Symbiosis Core Crystal from the Mortal Realm beside a "Spirit Charm Crystal" from Spirit Resonance Space. "We can use the Symbiosis Core Crystal as the core to absorb the Origin impurities from both sides, then use the Spirit Charm Crystal as a conducting medium to guide the purified Origin back into the nodes—this would both remove the impurities and maintain the Origin Resonance."

The Spirit Resonance elder's eyes lit up. He immediately led the Spirit Resonance scholars in drawing up blueprints for the Harmonizer; Stone Clan craftsmen worked through the night to mine high-purity earth vein ore and forge the Harmonizer's casing; Chen Fan and Lin Xiaohu were responsible for infusing it with Origin power, ensuring that the Harmonizer could adapt to the Origin characteristics of both races.

After two days and two nights of relentless work, the "Origin Harmonizer" was finally completed. The instrument's main body was a pale golden crystal sphere—the Symbiosis Core Crystal—surrounded by twelve Spirit Charm Crystal pillars, with a base of earth vein ore embedded beneath it. When Chen Fan injected the power of myriad arts into the instrument, the crystal sphere erupted with a gentle glow. The twelve crystal pillars lit up at once, forming an "Origin Harmonization Field."

They first installed the Harmonizer at an earth vein node in the Mortal Realm. Once the Harmonization Field enveloped the node, the restless Earth Vein Power swiftly calmed, and the shattered ores actually began to slowly mend. The remnants of erosion Origin in the earth veins were gradually absorbed by the crystal sphere, turning into wisps of black mist that dissipated. Immediately afterward, Spirit Resonance scholars transmitted a projection of the Harmonizer through the spatial passage to the Spirit Resonance Spring. Under the Harmonization Field's effects, the black turbid current in the spring gradually cleared, and the Spirit Resonance Origin that had been withering in reverse resumed its flow.

"Success!" Lin Xiaohu shouted excitedly. The light of the Soul Suppressing Seal resonated with the Harmonizer, further reinforcing the stability of the Origins.

But at that moment, the Harmonizer's crystal sphere suddenly began to shake violently—the total amount of impurities within the two races' Origins far exceeded expectations. The crystal sphere's purification capacity had already reached its limit, and some of the unabsorbed impurities began to batter the instrument's casing.
