Xu Huo's Ingenious Use
But Unpolished Jade showed no intention of leaving. Not only was she not preparing to go, but her eyes were also shining as she stared at the person on the ground. "Cases of people beginning Spacetime Evolution after being injured by spacetime energy are extremely rare, but there have been successful cases!"
"He was injured by spacetime energy?" Yan Ping asked in surprise, with a hint of envy. "Was it time or space?"
"Space," Unpolished Jade said with certainty. Then she gestured to her companions. "Let's get out first. It's not safe near him."
The group left the venue item. Unpolished Jade was about to call Yan Jiayu out as well, but just then, the water Rubik's Cube barrier suddenly expanded and contracted, then slowly drew together around Xu Huo's right hand, gradually solidifying on his index finger.
At the same time, Xu Huo's index finger began to change. In an instant, its skin dried and cracked as if weathered by the wind. As the cracks widened, the skin gradually peeled away, revealing something that was no longer ordinary human flesh and blood, but a glasslike transparent substance with several finger bones embedded inside.
Before anyone present could make out all the changes brought about by the Space Power, a huge hole suddenly opened beneath Xu Huo, and he plunged straight through!
"Old Xu!" Yan Jiayu jumped after him without hesitation, but she had misjudged the situation. The ground beneath the venue item had been woven from vines, and beyond those twenty-odd meters of vines lay the underground forest. There was plenty of room to move below, and the coiling trunks and roots could serve as footholds—and stop Xu Huo's fall...
But once she followed him down, she realized that anything Xu Huo touched evaporated instantly.
