He finally agreed reluctantly and initiated the exchange of heart and soul—
Rong Yi took a deep breath, walked to the table, and slowly extended a hand to cover the jade pendant. His brows furrowed slightly, his expression solemn, his gaze resolute and cold, as if he was striving to focus all his mind on a single point...
Gradually, faint green light seeped through his ink-black phoenix eyes, shimmering in harmony with the green jade pendant—Qiqi only then realized that the green hue in Rong Yi's eyes was remarkably close to the color of that pendant!
After a moment longer, that green light actually filtered out from his dark phoenix eyes and began to gather in the empty space before them. The green light grew denser and more distinct, until finally, it coalesced into a cloud-like entity, detaching itself from Rong Yi's eyes!
God, could this be Rong Yi's heart and soul?
Qiqi's eyes widened in utter shock—his heart and soul, it was, it was actually green!!
That gathered green light of his heart and soul shifted and flickered, dazzling and brilliant, like a newborn galaxy in the universe—dark clouds surging within, specks of light blazing, harboring immense power, just waiting for the cosmic explosion to come...
Rong Yi's expression turned icy. He extended the index and middle fingers of his right hand flatly, pointing at the green light, and barked coldly, "Break—"
The green light immediately obeyed as if receiving a command, floating and trembling in the air, then shot into the jade pendant with a "whoosh"!
The pendant, suddenly struck by the green light, shuddered violently! A genuine tremor—Qiqi saw it clearly!
Then, just as it had absorbed the drop of blood earlier, the pendant began to absorb all the green light. Moments later, its interior started to glow...
At first, the light it emitted was faint, a green hue identical to the one in Rong Yi's eyes. Gradually, the green grew brighter, its color slowly shifting, gathering on the pendant's surface into rings of white light...
The rings gradually engulfed the pendant, and by then, it had changed color from the inside out—a beautiful moon-white, like the radiance of moonlight, lustrous, soft, and gentle...
This state lasted for a few seconds, then the white rings began to contract inward, shrinking, shrinking, shrinking further...
This brief contraction was only to gather greater energy—
When the rings contracted to a point as tiny as a needle tip, Qiqi suddenly heard a soft "pop" from the jade!
Then, a blinding white light burst forth like a shockwave! A massive ring of light, like the circular wave of an explosion, filled the entire room!
A powerful current trembled through the space, forming ripples like pulse waves!
The intense light momentarily blinded Qiqi, and she instinctively covered her eyes...
When she opened them again, the white light had faded, and the pendant had returned to its green color.
But on its surface, a thin silver line remained—it looked very much like an arrow, pointing southeast. Moreover, it kept trembling and adjusting slightly, like a compass floating on water.
Could the Moon's Guidance have awakened?
Wasn't that just too cool, too dazzling?
Qiqi stared wide-eyed at the pendant on the table, which now seemed alive, filled with awe and curiosity.
"This is the direction of the Moon Gem—southeast. The guiding silver line on the pendant is very clear now, which means the gem isn't too far from where we live."
