208: Chapter 208 Green Star Rescue: Resonance of the Twelve Realms and Breaking the Alienation Impasse

Section 1: Gathering of the Twelve Realms: The Successor of Nature Source Energy and Equipment Upgrades

As the Alliance Mothership entered the outskirts of the Green Star, a pale green light signal popped up on the communicator—on the screen, a girl with braided pigtails was squatting behind a glowing plant. Her pant legs were stained with Green Star mud, and she was clutching a "Nature Source Crystal Core" that emitted a faint green glow. Her voice was crisp yet resilient: "You've finally arrived! The 'Alienated Nature Qi' of the Green Star is about to swallow the Source of Martial Tradition! My energy can't hold out much longer; the crystal core is almost being turned black by the alienation!"

The girl's name was Lv Xi, the successor of the Green Star's Nature Source Energy and the last guardian of the Green Star. The pale green light on her was three times denser than Xiao Juan's Nature Qi. As she spoke, she was still channeling energy into the glowing plant: "My energy can resonate with all the plants on the Green Star and can also purify alienated energy, but your equipment must be embedded with 'Nature Resonance Chips'—otherwise, the alienated energy will follow the technique and crawl inside, turning all your energy into black lumps. Even your spacesuits would be wrapped into cocoons by the alienated plants!"

Xiao Juan immediately leaned into the screen, the Nature Qi on her gloves lighting up in response: "You can talk to plants? Last time I chatted with the moss in the Grandmist, it even complained to me that the Erosion Energy smelled too bad!" Ling suddenly leaned over and poked Xiao Juan's glove: "Oh, another one who plays with flowers and grass? Don't end up wrapped in a cocoon by alienated plants and need us to save you!" Lv Xi rolled her eyes at him, waving the crystal core: "At least I won't be hit by Stardust Energy and still be stubborn, unlike some people who shouted cheers louder than anyone else from the back while fighting the Ultimate Erosion King last time." Ling's face turned red, and he reached out to grab Lv Xi's crystal core, but Chen Wu pinned him down: "Stop messing around! Hurry up and upgrade the equipment; the Green Star's Source of Martial Tradition only has half a day of life left!"

The equipment upgrade scene was as chaotic as a botanical garden. Lv Xi broke the Nature Source Crystal Core into thin slices, each wrapped in pale green light: "Embed them into the slots on the cuffs of the spacesuits, aligning them with the natural patterns. Don't embed them backward—if you do, they'll attract alienated plants, and you'll be covered in vines!" Lu Yu squatted in front of the "Nature Resonance Navigator," his screwdriver nearly worn out: "Does this crappy navigator have a grudge against plants? It just sprouted as soon as I embedded the chip!" Lv Xi walked over, her fingertip's Nature Qi swirling around the interface. The pale green light enveloped the wiring, and the sprouts on the navigator instantly turned into harmless little leaves: "Don't try to force the repairs! Nature Qi emphasizes following the flow; embed the chips along the growth lines of the plant. It's not the same approach as when you're repairing a Star Mist Navigator!"

Xiao Juan's Nature Qi gloves gained a layer of "Alienation Sensing Membrane." Lv Xi smeared some crystal core liquid onto the membrane, and the gloves immediately displayed a distribution map of Green Star plants: "You can talk to the Source of Martial Tradition, and this membrane will let you see the trajectory of the alienated energy, even finding the Alienated Offspring hidden within the plant roots." The Little Whale Spirit's Qi Energy cabin was placed next to the navigator. The little fellow was bringing its Eleven-Qi Ball (eleven energies + pale green light) close to Lv Xi's crystal core. The ball suddenly erupted with pale green light, illuminating the entire mothership like a forest. Even the twelve energies on the fusion jade began to spin faster, and the little leaves next to the navigator swayed to the rhythm of the ball, leaving everyone stunned.

"This little guy can actually resonate with twelve energies!" Lv Xi squatted by the cabin, her fingertip's Nature Qi gently touching the ball. The ball even nuzzled her palm, and even the mud on her pant legs lit up slightly. "The Green Star's Source of Martial Tradition will definitely recognize it; breaking the alienation this time depends entirely on it." Chen Wu held up the fusion jade, the twelve energies on it twisting into a spiral and glowing with rainbow light: "Now we are the 'Twelve Realms Traditional Martial Arts Alliance.' This time, we must not only save the Green Star's Source of Martial Tradition but also find out the Origin of the alienated energy—we can't let it ruin other star systems with natural martial arts!"

The bullet comments on the global live stream were exploding: "Sister Lv Xi is so cool! She can actually make a navigator grow leaves!" "The Little Whale Spirit's Eleven-Qi Ball nuzzles hands! It can even make plants sway! It's melting my heart!" "Brother Ling got roasted again! The incident where he hid in the back and cheered last time hasn't been forgotten yet!" News came from the Technical Department that the Sources of Martial Tradition from 112 star systems were channeling energy into the mothership. The light pillar from the Milky Way Hub was almost piercing through the Green Star's atmosphere. The alienated energy around the Green Star's Source of Martial Tradition was becoming denser, and the glowing plants were starting to turn black.

Section 2: Green Star Turbulence: The Alienation Vortex and Breaking Through with Twelve Qis

When the Alliance Mothership entered the "Green Star Nature Turbulence Zone," the windows were instantly enveloped by fragments of pale green plants—the fragments hit the hull with a "rustling" sound. Each fragment was wrapped in thick black alienated energy. The navigator suddenly began to grow alienated vines, and even Karen's Storm Qi was so entangled by the alienated energy that it couldn't spin. The wind she had just gathered was torn into green wind laced with black threads.

"Holy crap! This turbulence is even more sinister than the one at the Heart of Origin! Even techniques can be entangled by plants!" Karen clenched her fists, having failed to gather her Storm Qi five times already. Lv Xi's Nature Source Crystal Core lit up, and pale green light enveloped the mothership: "Don't panic! The plants of the Green Star recognize my energy!" The light from her fingertip drew a plant arc outside the cabin, and the fragments in the turbulence immediately turned into harmless little leaves. The alienated vines on the navigator also slowly receded, returning to normal.

But they hadn't gone far when an "Alienated Nature Vortex" suddenly appeared ahead—remnants of Green Star guardians and half a broken nature crystal core floated within the vortex. The alienated energy at the center was as thick as ink, sucking in Green Star plants from the surroundings. Even the distant glowing trees were bent by the suction. "It's a trap set by an Alienation Lord! This vortex can swallow Nature Qi and replicate alienated plants. Any swallowed attacks will be turned into Alienated Vine Whips and struck back!" Just as Lv Xi finished speaking, the vortex suddenly exerted force, dragging a Triangulum cruiser nearby into it. The ship's hull was instantly covered in alienated vines and began to corrode!

"Leon, Ze! Use Dual Space-Time Energy to hold the cruiser! Leo! Use Star Core Energy to burn the edges of the vortex!" Chen Wu shouted. Leon's and Ze's Space-Time Energy spun simultaneously, the pale gold light wrapping around the cruiser like ropes. However, the suction of the vortex was too strong, and the light was thinned by the entangling alienated vines. Leo's Star Core Energy condensed into a fireball and smashed toward the vortex. The moment the fireball touched the alienated energy, it was wrapped into an "Alienated Fireball" and bounced back, nearly hitting the mothership's chip coating and scaring Lu Yu into dropping his screwdriver.

"Watch out! Attacks will be reflected as vine whips!" Xiao Juan suddenly shouted, the sensing membrane on her gloves glowing blindingly. "There's an 'Alienated Offspring King' in the core of the vortex! It's absorbing nature energy; the more it absorbs, the stronger the alienation becomes!" She marked the position of the Offspring King on the screen—it was a mass of black plant-like insects circling a dark crystal. With every gulp it took, the vortex's suction grew stronger, and the surrounding plants turned black even faster.

The Little Whale Spirit suddenly rushed out of the cabin, the Twelve-Qi Ball expanding in front of it and flying toward the vortex—as soon as the ball touched the vortex, the entangled Space-Time Energy was instantly restored, and Leo's alienated fireball turned back into a normal fireball, smashing into the Offspring King. The vortex's rotation slowed down, and the trapped cruiser finally broke free from the gravity. The alienated vines on its hull were also purified into little leaves by the ball's light.

"Its Twelve-Qi Ball can break the alienation!" Lv Xi shouted in surprise. "Little Whale Spirit! Throw another ball into the core!" The little fellow nodded and spat out another Twelve-Qi Ball—this time, the ball exploded in the center of the vortex. Pale green light enveloped the Offspring King, which instantly turned into harmless plant cells. The vortex also slowly dissipated, and the surrounding blackened plants returned to their pale green color. The captain of the Triangulum cruiser sent a message of thanks: "Thanks to the Little Whale Spirit! Otherwise, our ship would have been turned into scrap metal by those alienated vines!" Ling leaned over, wanting to touch the Little Whale Spirit's ball, but the ball dodged to the side and nuzzled Lv Xi's hand, making Ling grumble: "Why is this little guy always so close to the newcomers! Last time it was Yuan, and this time it's Lv Xi!"

The global audience's palms were sweating as they watched: "The Little Whale Spirit is too divine! The Twelve-Qi Ball can actually turn alienated plants back to normal!" "Brother Leon and Brother Ze's Dual Space-Time Energy was such a struggle! The light was thinned by the vines!" "The Triangulum ship was almost gone! Luckily it was saved!" An hour later, the mothership finally arrived at the Green Star's Source of Martial Tradition area—the Source was a "Nature Crystal Cluster" suspended in mid-air, glowing with pale green light. However, two-thirds of it was enveloped by alienated energy. Surrounded by 70 "Alienated Nature Lords," each twice the size of the mothership, and countless Alienated Offspring were gnawing on the crystal cluster. The light of the cluster was almost extinguished.

Section 3: Green Star Core Battlefield: Alienated Counterattack and Team Confrontation

As soon as the Alliance Mothership came to a halt, the Alienation Lord at the very front raised its head—its body was made of thick black alienated energy wrapping Green Star plant vines, and its eyes were two clusters of dark red light. It opened its mouth and spat out a mass of "Alienated Vine Whips," heading straight for the mothership's chip coating! "Quickly use Nature Source Energy to block it! These vine whips can absorb the energy from the chips!" Lv Xi shouted, her body enveloped in pale green light that condensed into a barrier. The vine whips hissed as they hit the barrier, slowly being purified into normal vines that fell outside the cabin and even sprouted a small flower.

Chen Wu immediately assigned tactics: "Lv Xi and Xiao Juan, protect the crystal cluster and use Dual Nature Qi to block the alienation. Leon and Ze, pin down the Alienated Lords and don't let them get close. Aiya and A-Yue, entangle the lords' vines. Ling and Luna, clear the offspring. Leo and Xiao Kaya, blast the lords' alienated bodies. Chen, Viya, and Yuan, fill the gaps. New Generation, follow me to protect Lv Xi and Xiao Juan!"

[part:gemini-3.1-flash-lite]

Lv Xi and Xiao Juan were critical to protecting the Crystal Cluster—Lv Xi's Nature Qi condensed into a membrane, wrapping around the corrupted parts of the Crystal Cluster. As the pale green light shone, the black corrupted energy slowly receded, and the Crystal Cluster brightened. Xiao Juan's Nature Qi seeped through the membrane, resonating with the plants inside the Crystal Cluster to restore their growth, causing even the blackened surrounding plants to light up. Little Whale Spirit's Twelve Energy Spheres orbited the Crystal Cluster, purifying any leaked corrupted sub-entities into small flowers, resembling a mobile garden. Lv Xi's pressure instantly diminished significantly: "With it here, I can hold on longer!"

Aiya and A-Yue were also in sync when entangling the vines—Aiya's Extraterrestrial Star Orbit Qi condensed into ropes, binding the Corrupted Lord's vines. As soon as the pale purple light touched the vines, it drilled inside, binding them tightly. A-Yue's Star Orbit Qi followed the ropes, disrupting the corrupted energy within the vines, causing cracks to appear instantly. "Leo! Blast the cracks!" A-Yue shouted. Leo's Star Core Energy fireball struck immediately. Upon hitting the cracks, the fireball exploded, blasting a large hole in the Lord's corrupted body. Xiao Kaya's Erosion Energy poured into the hole, and the dark silver light enveloped the corrupted energy. The Lord slowly disintegrated into normal vines, which sprouted new buds upon hitting the ground.

Ling and Luna were also busy clearing out the sub-entities—Luna's Star Mist Qi condensed into a net, catching all the approaching sub-entities. The sub-entities thrashed inside the net, attempting to grow vines but getting entangled by the Star Mist. Ling's Stardust Energy condensed into countless small daggers, like a meteor shower, instantly blowing up all the sub-entities in the net, which sprouted small leaves after the explosion. "Your mist net is quite useful! It's less trouble than chasing them down with Stardust Energy!" Ling said while blasting. Luna rolled her eyes at him: "Why do you think I teamed up with you? I was afraid you'd get wrapped into a dumpling by the corrupted vines!"

But before anyone could breathe a sigh of relief, the Crystal Cluster's light flickered—the "Ultimate Corrupted Lord" at the very center seized the distraction and bit into the Crystal Cluster, activating "Ultimate Corruption," siphoning off most of Lv Xi's Nature Source Energy. Blood instantly trickled from the corner of Lv Xi's mouth, and the corrupted energy of the Crystal Cluster intensified by thirty percent; the pale green light was almost gone! "Don't let it bite!" Little Karim rushed over, his Pyramid Force bracers lighting up, covering the gap in the Crystal Cluster with pale golden light. Mei's Ninja Qi darts shot toward the Corrupted Lord's eyes, but they were tangled into fragments by corrupted vines as soon as they approached. Laila was nearly in tears; the microorganisms summoned by her Shamanic Martial Force turned black as soon as they touched the Lord, becoming nutrients for the sub-entities.

Little Whale Spirit suddenly rushed over, slamming the Twelve Energy Spheres into the Corrupted Lord's mouth—as soon as the spheres touched it, the corruption stopped instantly, and Lv Xi's Nature Source Energy recovered. The Corrupted Lord roared in pain, spitting out the corrupted vines from its mouth, unable to bite the Crystal Cluster again. "Its Twelve Energy Spheres can suppress Ultimate Corruption!" Xiao Juan shouted in surprise. "Everyone, channel your Qi Energy into the spheres! Let's strike its core together!"

Section 4 Climax: Twelve Realms Nature Resonance and Defeating the Lord

"Lv Xi, Xiao Juan! Use Dual Nature Qi to stabilize the Crystal Cluster! Leon, Ze! Immobilize the Ultimate Corrupted Lord!" Chen Wu shouted into the universal communicator. Lv Xi and Xiao Juan's pale green light surged simultaneously, wrapping around the gap in the Crystal Cluster. The corrupted parts slowly recovered, and the surrounding plants lit up as well. Leon and Ze's Space-Time Energy condensed into a giant net, wrapping the Corrupted Lord in pale golden light, completely pinning down its Ultimate Corruption. Even the corrupted vines on its body dared not move, only swaying gently.

Aiya channeled her Extraterrestrial Star Orbit Qi into the communicator, and the pale purple Star Orbit lines followed the signal, connecting to the Source of Martial Tradition of 112 galaxies—the Stardust nodes of the Solar System erupted with blood-red pillars, the Star Orbit lines of Andromeda connected into a cosmic net, and the Star Core Source of Triangulum shone blindingly. The Star Core Energy of the Large Magellanic Cloud, the Erosion Energy of the Small Magellanic Cloud, the Space-Time Energy of the extraterrestrial galaxies, the Star Cluster Energy of the supercluster, and the Ultimate Source Energy of the Heart of Origin... countless beams of light rushed along the Star Orbit lines, like a colorful giant dragon, merging into the Alliance Mothership!

Leo, Xiao Kaya, Ling, Luna, Viya, Chen, A-Yue, Yuan, the New Generation... everyone channeled their Qi Energy into Little Whale Spirit's Twelve Energy Spheres. The spheres grew larger and larger, shimmering with twelve streams of light: gold, silver, purple, red, dark silver, dark purple, pale blue, pale white, pale purple (extraterrestrial), pale gold (super-domain), Chun Bai (Ultimate Origin), and pale green (Nature Origin). It shone brightly enough to penetrate Green Star's atmosphere, and even distant galaxies began to flicker along with it. All the plants on Green Star swayed to the rhythm of the spheres, as if cheering!

The Ultimate Corrupted Lord saw that things were going poorly and tried to break free from the Space-Time giant net, but Little Whale Spirit's Twelve Energy Spheres suddenly stuck to its body. The twelve streams of energy, like twelve swords of light, slowly drilled into the corruption core—the black corrupted energy began to be purified, revealing the "Ultimate Corrupted Core" inside. It was a black sphere larger than a basketball, wrapped in the densest corrupted energy. With every pulse, the surrounding plants grew a shade darker!

"Attention, entire Alliance! Channel all energy into the spheres! Release the Twelve Realms Nature Resonance Energy!" Chen Wu's voice was filled with excitement. Shouts from 112 galaxies echoed through the communicator. Countless beams of light surged three times brighter along the Star Orbit lines. The Twelve Energy Spheres instantly shone like a small sun, and even the Natural Crystal Cluster of Green Star erupted with pale green light, illuminating the entire Green Star like a green gemstone!

"Fire!" Little Whale Spirit, Lv Xi, and Xiao Juan exerted force simultaneously. The Twelve Energy Spheres, carrying the traditional martial arts energy of the entire Universe, struck the Ultimate Corrupted Core like a rainbow meteor! "Bang!" With a deafening boom, the entire Green Star shook. The Ultimate Corrupted Core was smashed to pieces, the black corrupted energy instantly purified into natural energy. The Ultimate Corrupted Lord's body scattered into normal vines, and the surrounding Corrupted Lords and sub-entities were also purified. Even the corrupted remnants deep within Green Star were swept clean by this energy. All the plants on Green Star returned to a pale green color, even brighter than before!

The Natural Crystal Cluster lit up completely, and pale green light bathed the entire Green Star. Previously corrupted areas regained their vitality, and the Crystal Cluster projected an image—it was the creator of Green Star. Smiling, he said: "Thank you for protecting Green Star's traditional martial arts. Now, the Crystal Cluster on Green Star can connect to all the Source of Martial Tradition in the Universe... By the way, there is a 'Corrupted Nebula' in the extraterrestrial region. That is the lair of the Corrupted Energy. You must be careful..." In the image, the direction of the extraterrestrial region glowed with black and green light, like a dangerous cloud drifting toward other galaxies.

The global live stream chat exploded: "The Twelve Realms Resonance is so epic! I'm crying! Green Star has fully lit up!" "Little Whale Spirit is the eternal god! We couldn't have won without it!" "Corrupted Nebula! This must be the next target! Looking forward to it!" Lv Xi leaned against the Crystal Cluster, wiped away her tears, and said with a smile: "Thank you all... Green Star is saved, and we have upheld the mission of traditional martial arts."

Section 5 Ending: Crystal Cluster Activation and Extraterrestrial Corruption Foreshadowing

After the Natural Crystal Cluster was fully activated, the "Universal Nature traditional martial arts Map" appeared on the Alliance Mothership's screen—the Source of Martial Tradition of 112 galaxies were connected by pale green light, rooted in the Green Star Crystal Cluster. The plants in every galaxy lit up, as if weaving a green carpet for the Universe. Chen Wu looked at the map, his voice firm: "We have protected Green Star, but the mission is not over yet—the Corrupted Nebula is still drifting toward other galaxies. We must go and destroy its lair so that traditional martial arts will no longer be threatened."

Lv Xi pulled a fragment of the Nature Source Crystal Core from her bosom and handed it to Chen Wu: "This fragment can sense the signal of the Corrupted Nebula. The Corrupted Energy there is ten times stronger than on Green Star, and there is a 'Corrupted Mother Nest' producing sub-entities. We must hurry and upgrade our anti-corruption equipment." Little Whale Spirit pressed the Twelve Energy Spheres against the fragment, and it immediately lit up, projecting an image of the Corrupted Nebula—inside the nebula was a black planet wrapped in dense black corrupted energy. Countless corrupted sub-entities flew out of the planet, drifting toward various galaxies, making everyone frown.

"That is the Corrupted Mother Nest!" Xiao Juan's eyes lit up, and the sensor membrane on her gloves also lit up. "I can talk to the plants in the nebula. They say there is a 'Corrupted Origin Crystal' in the Mother Nest. Destroying it can completely eradicate the Corrupted Energy!" Ling leaned in and poked the image: "Oh, a new target already? I definitely won't hide this time; I'll be the first to rush in and blow up the Mother Nest!" Everyone laughed; the previous tension was gone, leaving only anticipation for the future.

As the Alliance Mothership prepared to depart, the Natural Crystal Cluster shot out a wisp of pale green light, wrapping around the fusion jade—the twelve streams of energy on the jade could now connect to all the Source of Martial Tradition in the Universe, shining blindingly. Lv Xi touched the Crystal Cluster and said softly: "Rest assured, we will go to the Corrupted Nebula, destroy the Mother Nest, and not let the plants of Green Star be threatened again."

The final scene of the global live broadcast showed the Alliance Mothership sailing along the pale green light toward the Corrupted Nebula in the extraterrestrial region, followed by ships from 112 galaxies like a colorful long dragon, carving a dazzling trajectory outside Green Star's atmosphere. Chen Wu said to the camera: "No matter how far the Corrupted Nebula is, or how strong the Corrupted Energy is, we are not afraid. Because we have the traditional martial artists of the entire Universe as our backing, the Twelve Realms Energy Techniques as our weapons, and partners like Little Whale Spirit. As long as traditional martial arts still exist, our protection will never stop!"
