Iris, who was flying in the air, suddenly sensed a disturbance in the Consciousness Space of the summoning system.
Baixi is Iris's summoned creature, and the two are connected through the Consciousness Space.
The Consciousness Space is like a spiritual bond between the two, allowing Iris to sense Baixi and communicate with her.
But now, Iris clearly feels that the Consciousness Space connecting Baixi is being eroded. Once the erosion is successful, Iris will lose Baixi.
Immediately, Iris's body emits a strong silver light. Without hesitation, she unleashes all the magical power of the summoning system's Consciousness Space to help Baixi resist the erosion of the spell.
In the Consciousness Space, the calm surface of the sea is churning with a turbulent black tide, trying to devour the silver star chain that connects Baixi.
Iris is not afraid of this cold power. She chants a spell and creates a huge magic circle in the Consciousness Space.
With the recitation of the spell, the magic circle slowly begins to rotate, emitting a dazzling silver-white light. Wherever the light reaches, the black tide recedes, and the cracks on the star chain slowly heal.
"Thinking of eroding our connection? Dream on!"
With Iris's infusion of magic, the Consciousness Space returns to calm, and the star chain connecting the two reverts to its original state. Iris heaves a sigh of relief, briefly stabilizing Baixi's condition.
But she knows that to solve this problem, she still needs to find Baixi and eliminate whatever is attached to her.
Flying and helping Baixi fight the invasion at the same time, Iris's mind is greatly exhausted.
Coupled with days of tireless flying, Iris's physical and mental strength is approaching its limit. But in order to protect her little partner, she continues to divide her attention, dispelling the invasion on Baixi while flying.
The silver light has dimmed, and the magical power of the summoning system is being greatly consumed. Tiny beads of sweat appear on Iris's forehead, but she continues to fly forward without stopping. She won't allow herself to collapse.
Iris's flying speed and altitude are clearly pushing her body to its limits.
Her wings are weak, and the flight path on her bat wings, which was once smooth, is now erratic.
Nevertheless, her gaze remains steadfast, her hands clenched tight, completely focused on blocking the Consciousness Space and resisting the black tide.
As time passes, Iris begins to feel difficulty in breathing, and her complexion becomes increasingly pale. A sudden dizziness rushes to her mind, and Iris loses consciousness in mid-air, her body falling unconsciously.
Just as the situation becomes critical, Chaos inside Iris senses her unconsciousness and immediately takes over her body, using its primordial power to envelop Iris and ensure her safe landing.
Controlled by Chaos, Iris opens her eyes, and her blood-red irises reveal a cold and cruel gaze...
"What's the use of showing off? It will only leave the body with a lingering illness." The Chaos Emperor retains his dignified demeanor, his tone cold but with a trace of concern.
"Tsk~ I didn't ask for your help, did I?" Iris retorts with some petulance, her tone filled with disdain.
"When I have a physical body, I will definitely teach you a lesson," the voice of Chaos Empress was filled with a hint of indulgence.
"Let's talk about that once you actually have a physical body," Iris lazily replied, seemingly uninterested in the matter.
Chaos no longer paid any attention to Iris. This girl definitely needed some proper adjustment, considering how Lilia had influenced her so negatively.
Chaos manipulated Iris' body, causing black flames to burn fiercely all over. The flames emitted a terrifying heat and an aura of horrifying power.
Three sharp black spikes faintly emerged from Iris' scapula, revealing an eerie and terrifying appearance against the backdrop of the flames.
"Hahaha..." Chaos let out a cold laugh, while Iris' crimson eyes were filled with cruel and disdainful light towards life.
"Let me see who dares to snatch your little Baixi from you." Chaos looked up to the sky and let out a long howl, while the black spikes writhed behind Iris like living creatures.
The surrounding air instantly became scorching, and small animals in the forest fled in fear, leaving only the echoes of Chaos' laughter lingering through the woods.
Chaos controlled Iris' body, causing her to fly at an astonishing speed, making it almost impossible to catch her. The burning black flames left behind a long trail of fire, particularly striking against the blue sky.
At this moment, Baixi felt her consciousness sinking gradually.
The power of the Beast Control Gu surged like a torrent of black water, submerging her last line of mental defense. Her trembling lips were about to utter the word "Master."
Just then, a rift suddenly appeared in the Consciousness Space connecting Baixi, followed by a gentle silver-white light flowing in.
Baixi's pupils contracted suddenly as she felt the control of the Gu inside her body being weakened by the silver light.
"Mother!" Baixi felt immense joy in her heart, recognizing this as her mother's power.
Baixi quickly mobilized all her spiritual strength to resonate with the silver light, attempting to break free from the control of the Gu.
Wushuang's expression changed drastically as he sensed Baixi's will struggling. This was not good. He had to quickly regain control before Iris' power arrived in order to achieve his goal.
Amid the confrontation of the two powerful forces, Baixi's consciousness fluctuated and her head became increasingly painful.
Wushuang's gaze turned sinister. "So, you do have a master. No wonder it's so difficult to enter your body with the Beast Control Gu."
With a sneer, he decided to kill Baixi. Since he couldn't obtain this exotic beast, no one else could either. Wushuang closed his eyes, recited an incantation, and spat out a black Gu that was significantly larger than the Beast Control Gu. It was as thick as the arm of a grown man and exuded a disgusting, oily black light, accompanied by a nauseating stench.
The giant Gu seemed to possess a terrifying sense, crawling closer with a diameter as it eagerly stuck out its bright red proboscis, opening its blood-stained mouth as if it was about to devour Baixi's head. The horrifying scene made the surrounding air become cold and viscous.
At this moment, Baixi felt a splitting headache. She felt as if she had fallen into a bottomless abyss, sinking deeper and deeper, to the point of suffocation.
She was completely powerless to stop the attack of the black bug. Using her last bit of strength, she silently called out to Iris' silver light in the Consciousness Space.
Just as the black bug was about to touch Baixi, a silver-white spear descended from the sky like a shooting star, piercing through the body of the black bug. The spear emitted a strong black aura, clearly being surrounded by the black flames.
The black bug was sliced into two pieces, instantly dead. Green liquid splattered around.
As the black bug was killed, flames attached to the gun spread out, surrounding Baixi in the center.
Unparalleled was surprised by this sudden change of events. He looked up along the gun handle and saw a girl in casual clothes with black thorns on her shoulder blades floating down from mid-air. She was Baixi's summoner, and also her mother - Iris, although currently controlled by Chaos.
Iris stood expressionless in front of the two of them. A sternness could be seen between her beautiful eyebrows, like a drawn sword with its sharpness revealed. She didn't speak, but silently reached out and pulled out the long spear inserted in the ground, aiming the gun-sword directly at Unparalleled's throat.
"Mother..." Baixi muttered in surprise.
