112: Second daughter Mo Yu (Shui Ling Gen)

Mo Yun manifested as the Earth Mother Goddess, stabilizing the city with a single palm, temporarily alleviating the structural crisis of Mo City and buying a sliver of breathing room to suppress the magic bottle's riot.

Mo Yuan was able to focus more of his attention on stabilizing the Divine Kingdom within the Bottle. With his Thunder God Arm pressed against the magic bottle, Chaos Thunder Gang intertwined with the star Dao patterns, arduously channeling the violent energy turbulence within and fighting for control over every inch of the Divine Kingdom's space against the out-of-control Calamity Cloud Beast.

However, the Calamity Cloud Beast's rampage was like a plague; its chaotic energy fluctuations permeated through the magic bottle, continuously interfering with the outside world, especially for energy-sensitive units.

Just within this tense equilibrium, the Mirror Demon replica responsible for monitoring the isolation zone sent another urgent alarm—this time, it was the second daughter, Mo Yu!

The light screen switched, revealing that the situation of Mo Yu in the isolation chamber was completely different from that of Mo Yun earlier, yet equally perilous!

Mo Yu possessed a Water Spiritual Root. At this moment, the weak power of her Water Spiritual Root was not violently manifesting externally like the Earth Spiritual Root, but was instead presenting a strange... internal collapse!

The air around her became abnormally humid and viscous, the temperature plummeted, and thick, chilling white frost condensed on the chamber walls and floor.

She herself was curled up on the ground, her body trembling uncontrollably. Her skin surface displayed an unhealthy cyan-gray color, and her lips were purple, as if she were enduring the agony of extreme cold and suffocation.

Even more bizarrely, the weak Water Spiritual Root within her was not absorbing external moisture at this moment; instead, it acted like an invisible black hole, frantically extracting the water from her own blood and body fluids, and even began to extract the moisture and cold air permeating the chamber!

This self-consuming extraction was rapidly pushing her toward the brink of death by dehydration and freezing!

"Target's vitality is rapidly depleting!"

"Her Water Spiritual Root has undergone an unknown malignant mutation and is performing self-destructive absorption!"

"External intervention is ineffective; forcibly injecting energy may accelerate her collapse!"

The situation was extremely critical!

Unlike Mo Yun, who had that mysterious medicine box to protect her, Mo Yu's mutation was developing entirely in the direction of self-destruction!

Mo Yuan's eyes were cold.

Another trouble.

At this critical moment, any accident could break the fragile balance.

Abandon her?

A mortal Bloodline; if she dies, she dies.

But the moment this thought flashed through his mind, the magic bottle in his arms shook violently again!

Another surge of chaotic energy escaped. This time, it was mixed with a trace of the Calamity Cloud Beast's chaotic will—a twisted longing for "extreme cold" and "deep water"—this was its residual impression of the cold-attribute power within the Nether Lightning Pool when it devoured the Divine Kingdom's energy.

This chaotic cold energy flow, as if attracted, actually penetrated the isolation chamber wall directly and surged toward the dying Mo Yu!

Stimulated by this external chaotic energy, Mo Yu, who was on the verge of being completely frozen and dead, suddenly jolted, emitting a silent scream!

At this final moment, her self-consuming Water Spiritual Root was forcibly "activated" by the foreign, more powerful, yet homologous alien energy, but the direction of activation headed toward another extreme!

The instinct for survival made her subconsciously and frantically absorb this cold, chaotic energy!

But this was not enough!

Far from enough!

Her body was still sliding into the abyss of death!

Mo Yuan looked at the girl in the light screen who was rapidly losing her vitality, then looked at the restless magic bottle in his arms; a cold and efficient thought formed instantly.

Waste utilization, or... precise investment?

Mo Yu's Water Spiritual Root mutation appeared to be destruction, but that extreme longing for "water" and the instinct for absorption, if combined with the right sequence...

His gaze instantly locked onto a corner of the light screen, the data regarding "Sequence 024: Thunder Abyss Octopus"—especially its genetic characteristics of adapting to the deep-sea Thunder Abyss environment and manipulating Thunder-Water power!

"Prepare a high-concentration Water-attribute and Ice-attribute demonic liquid, mixed with Thunder Abyss Octopus genetic essence (focusing on its deep-sea adaptability and tentacle neural cords)."

"Guide the escaped chaotic cold energy, demonic liquid, and the target's mutated Spiritual Root into a forced Fusion."

"Goal: Terminate her self-destruction, guide the direction of her mutation, and master the power of 'Water'."

The command was cold and ruthless, like issuing an experimental directive.

Inside the isolation chamber, the mechanical arm extended again. This time, it injected a cold, deep-blue demonic liquid flickering with tiny arcs of lightning, containing the domineering genes of the Thunder Abyss Octopus from the bottom of the ten-thousand-zhang Thunder Abyss!

The moment the demonic liquid was injected, Mo Yu's body felt as if it had been thrown into an extreme cold purgatory!

A thick layer of blue ice instantly condensed on her skin surface, her veins bulged, and what flowed inside was no longer blood, but a deep-blue energy stream with sucker textures like those of an octopus tentacle!

"Gurgle... ugh..." A non-human sound, like someone drowning, issued from her throat. Her eyes snapped open, the whites completely disappeared, leaving only a deep, churning, thunderstorm-filled ocean blue!

Her body began to undergo terrifying distortion!

Her limbs became slender and soft, membranes grew between her fingertips, and her skin was covered in slick, blue scales with sucker textures!

Several energy pseudo-limbs, resembling octopus tentacles and composed of ice and lightning, suddenly pierced out from her spine, dancing crazily!

Pain!

Extreme pain!

But amidst this pain, the self-consuming collapse was actually forcibly halted!

The Thunder Abyss Octopus's genes and the demonic liquid's domineering power, like the crudest of craftsmen, forcibly twisted her self-destructing mutated Spiritual Root into a direction that was... strange, yet filled with power!

The temperature inside the Fusion chamber plummeted to the extreme; even the air seemed about to freeze and shatter!

A massive vortex composed of extreme cold water vapor and violent lightning formed with Mo Yu as the center!

Mo Yuan calmly observed the data changes and ordered again: "Inject a trace amount of the 'Nether Lightning Pool' residual sample (collected during the previous magic bottle riot) to guide its energy properties toward 'deep cold' and 'heavy pressure' evolution."

A wisp of pitch-black lightning energy, exuding Nether Death Qi, was injected into the vortex.

In an instant, the vortex jolted, and then its color became increasingly deep and dark, as if connecting to some unknown deep-sea purgatory!

In the center of the vortex, Mo Yu's figure was completely swallowed by the dark, lightning-filled water vapor.

One could only hear the teeth-grinding sound of bones shifting, the sound of flesh squirming, and a low, oppressive roar that seemed to come from a deep-sea behemoth!

When all the strange noises subsided, the dark lightning-filled water vapor slowly dissipated.

Appearing in the same spot was no longer that fragile girl.

She floated in mid-air, wearing a battle dress naturally condensed from constantly flowing dark water waves and tiny lightning arcs.

Her skin was pale to the point of being almost transparent, with deep-blue energy vaguely surging underneath like tides.

Her long hair had transformed into countless tiny, deep-blue water tentacles that slowly twisted like living creatures, with cold electric sparks leaping from the tips.

Her eyes were two pure, bottomless deep-blue vortices; it felt as if one's Soul would be sucked in with just one more glance.

Her aura had surprisingly reached the Early Stage of the Golden Core!

Her entire body exuded extreme cold, deep-water pressure, and a hint of Nether deathly silence!

She slowly raised one hand, her five fingers slightly spread.

All the frozen frost inside the isolation chamber instantly vaporized, turning into thick, lightning-imbued dark water mist that flowed joyfully around her.

Beneath her feet, the metal floor silently melted and caved in, forming a continuously rotating dark water vortex that exuded suction, as if leading directly to the endless deep sea!

[Azure Dragon Princess]!

A sequence Awakened one who controls deep-cold water and Nether lightning power!

As if sensing her birth, the endless ocean of lightning slurry outside the city seemed to become even more turbulent and surging.

Just then—

Hum!!!

The magic bottle's riot reached a new peak!

The Calamity Cloud Beast's frantic impact caused a trace of an extremely tiny space crack to briefly appear on the bottle's surface!

Although it was instantly repaired by the Heavenly Dao Golden Mark and external reinforcements, a wisp of extremely pure, yet destruction-filled Netherworld Death Qi escaped from it, biting toward Mo Yuan like a venomous snake!

Mo Yuan's Thunder God Arm surged with lightning, about to disperse it.

However, Mo Yu—the newly transformed Azure Dragon Princess—instantly locked her deep-blue vortex eyes onto that wisp of Nether Death Qi, actually revealing an instinctive... longing!

She subconsciously opened her mouth and inhaled!

That wisp of Nether Death Qi, which was enough to corrode the Divine Soul of a Nascent Soul Cultivator, was like encountering its nemesis; it was easily sucked into her mouth. She chewed slightly, a trace of a satisfied, eerie flush appearing on her pale cheeks, and her aura seemed to solidify by another fraction.

Immediately after, as if to repay him (or perhaps just testing her newfound power), she held her hands out towards the magic bottle and then pushed forward violently!

Woo—!!!

A vortex composed entirely of dark lightning-water, exuding terrifying suction and extreme cold, appeared out of thin air. It did not attack the magic bottle but instead enveloped the escaped, chaotic Calamity Cloud Beast energy around the magic bottle!

The vortex spun crazily, actually forcibly devouring, tearing apart, and neutralizing those chaotic, rampaging energies!

Although it was just a drop in the bucket relative to the overall riot inside the magic bottle, it genuinely alleviated a sliver of external pressure!

Mo Yuan watched this unexpected scene, looking at the "younger sister" floating in the dark water vortex, exuding cold and deathly aura, light flickering in his eyes.

Water Spiritual Root... mutation... Thunder Abyss Octopus... Nether Death Qi...

Had it, by some strange twist of fate, created such a special sequence capable of controlling deep water and even, to a certain extent, restraining Nether and chaotic energy?

"Grant Mo Yu 'sequence 034: Azure Dragon Princess' authority."

"Connect to the energy regulation System, responsible for channeling and neutralizing external escaped chaotic energy."

"Monitor her affinity with Nether energy."

He placed another chess piece.

In the desperate situation, the second unexpected chess piece was tempered into a blade.
