Chapter 1453: White Space
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
The so-called “Bright Moon” was a round jade stone hovering in the sky. It was 33 feet wide. One could only realize how big it was when it flew closer.
The round jade stone radiated with a cold aura. Its surface was covered in frost.
Zhang Ruochen stood ten feet away. He studied it carefully and discovered that there was a layer of liquid Ning True Saint Dew on the stone. One drop would fall down every ten breaths.
Princess Luosha’s eyes had a different look. “The patterns on the stone connect with the entire mountain. It can continuously form Ning True Saint Dew. In other words, it’s a spring for the Ning True Saint Dew.”
“This is a priceless treasure. Whoever has it will receive an endless supply of Ning True Saint Dew. But just now, I sensed faint spatial ripples. What’s going on?”
Zhang Ruochen approached it slowly. He released his Spiritual Power to test while extending a finger to touch the round stone.
A bone-piercing chill seized Zhang Ruochen.
At the same time, spatial ripples came out of the stone again. The powerful attractive force was about to swallow Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen’s expression changed. He hurriedly activated spatial power to use the Spatial Move and escape.
But the more he used spatial power, the stronger the attractive force of the stone.
In the end, Zhang Ruochen couldn’t resist the force. He was swallowed. The world spun and when he steadied himself again, he’d fallen into a white space.
This white space stood in stark contrast to the dark space outside.
The white space was even colder. Strands of Ning True Saint Dew vapor flew past Zhang Ruochen like snakes.
“What is this place? It’s so strange.”
Zhang Ruochen didn’t feel any joy in the fact that this place was filled with Ning True Saint Dew vapor. Instead, he found it strange.
Whoosh!
The space trembled. Then Princess Luosha’s alluring body also appeared in the space.
Zhang Ruochen hurriedly released his Spiritual Power to investigate the trembling space. But it was only an instant before it stabilized again. He couldn’t find the entrance at all.
Zhang Ruochen could only collect his Spiritual Power. “How come you came in too?” he asked.
“You’re important in my life and I worry for your safety, so I came in too,” Princess Luosha said seriously.
Zhang Ruochen naturally didn’t take her seriously. “It’s easy to come in but hard to get out,” he said solemnly.
Princess Luosha’s Spiritual Power was more advanced than Zhang Ruochen’s. She looked around, wanting to know what kind of space this was.
Zhang Ruochen was more direct. Activating all his Spiritual Qi, he activated the spatial power and waved his hand. He ripped apart a dozen-meter-long spatial crack and sent it out.
But the spatial crack closed instantly.
Princess Luosha furrowed her brows. “A powerful spatial cultivator once carved a spatial rune here. He’s much more advanced than us.”
There were some powerful spatial cultivators too.
Even a space manipulator like Zhang Ruochen might not be stronger than them. After all, Zhang Ruochen hadn’t cultivated space and time for long. The powerful spatial cultivators may have studied this field for hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years.
Zhang Ruochen also discovered some evidence. “No matter how advanced the spatial tactics are, they’re only tactics. They didn’t actually change the space. There must be some flaw…”
“Indeed. Only a space manipulator can truly change and construct space.” Princess Luosha nodded.
“Let’s split up. Perhaps we can find a flaw and escape.”
Zhang Ruochen activated the Heavenly Eyes. He started searching the white space inch by inch.
This place was completely isolated from the outside world, but there was also a good part. It was filled with Ning True Saint Dew vapor. Zhang Ruochen opened all his 144 apertures. Instantly, the Ning True Saint Dew poured into his body, going straight to the Heaven Pass River in his Sea of Qi.
After the 300-some Rules of Saintly Way in the Heaven Pass River absorbed the Ning True Saint Dew, they became stronger and stronger.
…
In the dark space, Mu Lingxi, Qing Mo and the others discovered that Zhang Ruochen and Princess Luosha had disappeared. They wanted to go look inside the Bright Moon too.
At first, they weren’t too worried. After all, Zhang Ruochen and the Princess Luosha were horribly strong. They could face any kind of dangers.
But they waited for four hours and the two still hadn’t come out. Mu Lingxi finally grew a bit worried.
“Something’s wrong.”
A brilliant pair of ice phoenix wings opened on Mu Lingxi’s back. She flew toward the Bright Moon.
Qing Mo, Bu Ji, Su Qingling, and the nine-headed bird also arrived close to the Bright Moon. But no matter what they did, nothing happened to the stone.
They couldn’t help but grow confused. How did Zhang Ruochen and the Princess Luosha enter the stone?
Fang Yi led the 20-some Hell Blade Field Saints out of the canyon. Fearing attack from Zhang Ruochen and the Princess Luosha, they rushed out of the mountain with their fastest speed.
They didn’t stop until they reached a safe area.
Fang Yi’s expression was very uncomfortable. It wasn’t just because he was badly hurt. More so, it was that he’d never suffered such a great defeat in his life. He felt very depressed and furious.
“Immediately message Priest Xue Fengling and have him come to the Great Whale River Territory. In addition, issue an Heir command. Summon all Saints of the Hell Blade Field. This time, I will flatten Phoenix Nest.”
On the side, the white-haired Absolute Saint had a solemn expression. “The Great Devil Ten Square Field is extremely large. It’s countless times stronger than us. Are we really going to go against the Spiritual Flame Demonic Concubine?”
Fang Yi’s eyes were sharp. He didn’t pull back at all. “As long as we do it cleanly and don’t leave any trace, so what if we kill the Spiritual Flame Demonic Concubine?”
Suddenly, a sharp sword clang sounded in the snowy wind.
“Careful!” Fang Yi exclaimed.
Poof, poof.
A saint sword flew by, stabbing through a True Saint of the Hell Blade Field.
The sword Qi from the sword cut the body into pieces. Blood rained down on the snow.
The sudden change alarmed all the Saints of the Hell Blade Field. They thought that Princess Luosha and Zhang Ruochen had caught up. They gathered hurriedly, activating their defensive scrolls.
Only Fang Yi was still calm. He could see that the Qi on the saint sword wasn’t from Zhang Ruochen and the Princess Luosha. It was another force.
His eyes darkened slightly. “Such strong sword intent. You must be very strong. However, it’s unwise to become enemies with the Hell Blade Field.”
An ancient voice sounded in the snowy wind. “The Hell Blade Field is powerful? I can’t even take care of a group of injured and disabled youths like you?”
This sentence obviously hit Fang Yi’s sore spot. Murderous intent burst from him.
“You’re looking to die if you want to provoke me.”
His finger moved. A white sword produced a string of explosions. More than 100 times faster than the speed of sound, it flew toward some direction.
Boom!
A large mass of sword Qi burst out, crashing against the flying sword.
Instantly, the snow fell down 100 times faster than before. They whooshed down like tiny swords.
The other’s sword intent far surpassed Fang Yi’s predictions. He was forced to use the White Micro Star’s power to force the sword intent back.
“As expected of a major world’s Heir. Still so strong even when injured.”
Sword Saint Jiuyou wore a gray cloth robe and simple straw shoes. Carrying a saint sword, he strolled out. He didn’t hide his appreciation of Fang Yi at all.
“Your attainment in the Sword Way isn’t what a Saint should have either.”
Fang Yi was a bit frustrated inside. Before, he’d been undefeatable in the Hell Blade Field. Now, he met three people stronger than him in a row.
Of course, each major world had hidden dragons. They were all impressive.
Fang Yi was badly hurt. The other Hell Blade Field Saints were injured as well, so they didn’t want to keep creating enemies.
“You want to take all of us by yourself,” he said. “It’s not that easy. Actually, we have no conflicts between us. There’s no reason why we should start a fatal battle.”
“No conflicts?”
Sword Saint Jiuyou scoffed. “Your Hell Blade Field has killed many Saints from the Kunlun’s Field. With something so grave, you still say we have no conflicts?”
“Kunlun’s Field… The Kunlun’s Field has people as strong as you?”
Fang Yi finally realized that he’d have to fight this battle today.
“The Kunlun’s Field was once one of the strongest worlds in the universe. Many inheritances and techniques are much stronger than you think. The people who truly inherited those ways aren’t much weaker than people like you who are born geniuses.”
Sword Saint Jiuyou stopped speaking. His black hair flew up. A terrifying demonic Qi combined with his saint sword. “Sword Eight,” he uttered.
The ground surrounding him shook.
Then Sword Saint Jiuyou disappeared. Only the sword stabbed toward Fang Yi.
Fang Yi didn’t dare to underestimate Sword Saint Jiuyou. He quickly activated the White Micro Star, pushed up the Heavenly Compass, and pressed down, crashing against the incoming sword.
Boom!
Fang Yi flew back dozens of miles. A dozen cuts from Sword Qi opened up. His injuries worsened and it was like his organs had been ruptured.
“Oh, no.”
Sensing the problem, Fang Yi used his greatest speed to retreat to where he’d been.
When he arrived, the Saints of the Hell Blade Field had all been killed. None survived.
Only a large mass of bloody corpses remained in the snow. Their storage bags had all been taken away.
Sword Saint Jiuyou had already left. All of his aura had vanished.
Argh!
Eyes bloodshot, Fang Yi was furious and let out a roar. The entire saint mountain trembled. He’d been defeated continuously. If not for his strong will, he would’ve fallen apart already.
