Prying It Loose
However, the Rule Power was beyond imagination; every wisp of soul power was ruthlessly repelled the moment it came into contact with it.
Time ticked by, and fine beads of sweat appeared on Yun Xi's forehead. Through her continued exploration, she gradually discovered some clues. Although this Rule Power was immense, it was not without its flaws.
Although the "dead silence" rule can bring a thing to stillness, it will have some temporary flaws under the disorderly impact of the "chaos" rule; although the "sealing" rule is sturdy, it will also become fragile under the devouring of the "nothingness" rule.
Yun Xi had a preliminary idea in mind. She decided to start with the power of the "chaos" rule and use its disorder to break the shackles of the "dead silence" rule.
Yun Xi's soul power began to search with difficulty for a trace of disordered fluctuation that could be used in the vortex of the "chaotic" rule power.
As time went by, her soul power was constantly impacted and distorted by the power of the "chaos" rules, but it also gradually began to resonate with this power of rules in a subtle way.
Yun Xi keenly noticed this change. Her spirits lifted, and she increased her input of soul power, attempting to further strengthen this resonance.
Through her efforts, the "chaotic" power began to show some slight fluctuations. The originally disordered power fluctuations began to have some subtle rhythmic changes, and these changes, like ripples, began to spread outwards from the surrounding "dead" power.
The power of the "dead silence" rule was affected by the fluctuations of the "chaos" rule, and the power barrier that was originally as solid as ancient ice began to show fine cracks.
These cracks, though as fine as hair, were like lightning piercing the night in this dark and oppressive space, bringing a glimmer of invigorating hope.
The leader of the monstrous robes stood not far away, nervously watching Yun Xi's every move. When he noticed the cracks appearing in the "dead silence" rule's power, his eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief. His lips trembled slightly, and he secretly marveled: He hadn't expected her to actually possess such power...
Yun Xi was pondering whether each of these things was her eternal soul.
However, although a glimmer of hope has just appeared, the road ahead is still full of difficulties and obstacles.
Although Yun Xi managed to create a crack in the power of the "dead silence" rule, it was clear that her powerful soul force was only enough to pry open a crack, not enough to truly break the seal.
After appearing briefly, the crack began to heal slowly, as if an invisible force was trying its best to maintain the integrity of the seal.
Yun Xi sensed this change, her gaze darkening slightly. She focused her mind again, continuously channeling her soul power into the crack, attempting to prevent it from healing.
But every wisp of soul power, once it entered the crack, seemed to sink into the sea, having no effect whatsoever.
As time went by, Yun Xi's face grew increasingly pale, and her body began to sway precariously. Her soul power was nearing its limit under this intense exertion.
Yun Xi temporarily withdrew her soul power.
Yun Xi stood in the desolate wilderness above this mysterious and unpredictable sealing array, surrounded by the surging power of the rules, which seemed to be swallowing her up at any moment.
Yun Xi's expression was solemn, her heart filled with complex emotions. If she didn't try her best to "awaken" the War Abyss God King using various methods, then she would be violating the System Contract.
Now that she has accepted the reward, Yun Xi's actions are irreversible. After all, violating the System Contract would bring her a punishment far worse than death.
Yun Xi's gaze was firm and resolute as she looked at the seemingly unbreakable sealing array before her. She knew that this was only the beginning, and there was still a long and arduous road ahead to "awaken" the War Abyss God King.
She began to recall every detail of her previous encounters with the Seal Array Technique and the Power of Rules, trying to find a new breakthrough.
In her previous attempts, she had managed to create subtle cracks in the Power of Rules, but that was far from enough. She needed to find a more effective method to delve into the core of the Power of Rules and take control of it.
In the process of breaking the array, she could feel her Soul Power becoming increasingly inadequate in the face of this Power of Rules. Every attempt to deepen the influence on the Seal Array Technique was like throwing an egg against a rock, yielding very little result.
The crack in the Power of Rules that had finally appeared was gradually closing, as if all the effort was about to be in vain.
Yun Xi thought of the crystal containing the Eternal Opportunity. Perhaps she could absorb the Eternal Opportunity to enhance the 'eternal' attribute of her soul.
She slowly closed her eyes, pressed the crystal close to her forehead, and carefully probed the crystal with her Soul Power.
The moment Yun Xi touched the Eternal Opportunity within the crystal, she felt a vast and boundless power, a power that seemed to come from the depths of the universe, carrying an eternal will that transcends time and space.
This force was extremely domineering. As soon as Yun Xi's Soul Power approached, it was violently bounced back, like a weak moth crashing into an indestructible wall of copper and iron.
Yun Xi was not discouraged. She adjusted the way she output her Soul Power and cautiously approached the Eternal Opportunity again.
This time, she no longer tried to directly touch that power, but rather, like a nimble fish, swam slowly on the edge of the Eternal Opportunity, trying to find a breakthrough.
It was obvious that the Eternal Opportunity within the crystal was extremely indifferent to her. No matter how carefully she released her Soul Power to test and probe, the other party seemed to be detached and completely ignored her.
But when she calmed down and delved into the familiar, Eternal Opportunity deep within her soul, a subtle difference gradually emerged in her perception.
Perhaps the Eternal Opportunity within the crystal ignored her because it was a 'new' Eternal Opportunity. It was like an untamed beast, full of primal wildness and untamed nature.
The Eternal Opportunity within Yun Xi's soul was Inherited Item left to Yun Xi by the ancient domain lord of the Purple Abyss Divine Realm, which had been tamed by him.
When Yun Xi inherited it, she established a special connection with this Eternal Opportunity.
That's why the two sides have such different attitudes towards Yun Xi.
Through continuous attempts and explorations, finally— the Eternal Opportunity within the crystal seemed to react, gradually attracting the Eternal Opportunity within Yun Xi's soul.
