The Black Tortoise Ruins was inconceivably huge. Its diameter was calculated in light years. Even light would need many years to travel this distance. However, the core area of the Black Tortoise Ruins wasn't very big. It was only a few hundred trillion miles in radius. The reason why there was a core area was because there was a black hole in the center of the Black Tortoise Ruins. This black hole had a powerful gravitational force that slowly attracted the mass of the Black Tortoise Ruins. Over time, the core area was formed.
There were a lot of 'junk' in the core area, such as meteorites, broken planets, and some dangerous cosmic wonders. Compared to the outer area of Black Tortoise Ruins, the core area was a hundred times more dangerous. Of course, if one's strength was high and luck was not too bad, the so-called danger was only relative.
Flying in the vacuum of the core area, Ye Chen sensed the aura of destruction and couldn't help but sigh. Back then, when the human race and the alien race battled, the destruction caused was enormous. As far as the eye could see, meteorites could be seen everywhere. These meteorites used to be part of some planet. Some were palm-sized, while some were as big as a mountain. Added together, there were billions and billions of them. It was simply impossible to count.
Occasionally, Ye Chen could even see one or two broken planets. Of course, they were not ordinary planets, but broken planets with life. Ordinary planets couldn't be preserved at all. They were too fragile, and the gravitational force of the black hole could slowly distort and disintegrate them.
Not only were the life planets huge, but they also contained unimaginably frightening energy. On a life planet, one's destructive power would be reduced by hundreds and thousands of times. It was simply impossible to carry out large-scale destruction. Only ninth layer Life and Death Supremes could destroy a life planet. Just now, when Ye Chen flew past a life planet with a diameter of ten million li, he clearly saw a huge palm imprint on it. Although the imprint was blurry, Ye Chen's heart stopped beating as soon as he looked at it.
It was too frightening!
Although the imprint was left a long time ago, the martial intent on it still carried a destructive killing power. Ye Chen suspected that if he got too close, his soul would collapse. This palm imprint was simply beyond the scope of human strength. It could even be called the imprint of a deity.
Compared to the owner of this imprint, Ye Chen felt insignificant, like a speck of dust.
"Nine Heavens of Life and Death Realm … One step at a time … You can't compare!"
Ye Chen couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Although there were two heavens between the ninth and seventh layer, and four heavens between the fifth layer and fifth layer, the gap was like a chasm. Moreover, the further one went, the bigger the gap would be. From the sixth layer to the seventh layer was a chasm, and from the seventh layer to the eighth layer was an even bigger chasm. From the eighth layer to the ninth layer was a supreme chasm. With one step, one would become a supreme, the supreme of the universe.
However, the huge gap did not affect Ye Chen. Instead, it completely stimulated Ye Chen's fighting spirit.
After flying for a few billion li, Ye Chen saw another broken life planet. This one was even bigger than the previous one, more than ten million li wide. There was no palm imprint on it, but rather a several million li wide fist imprint. The fist imprint was immeasurably deep, probably hundreds of thousands of li deep.
This was a life planet. If it were an ordinary planet, even if it were a hundred times bigger, it would have been shattered by a single fist imprint. However, life planets were rather special. They couldn't be shattered into pieces at once, and the energy contained within could counteract the destructive power by a thousand times. Of course, the energy of this life planet had already leaked out, and not much remained. If not for the fist intent supporting it, it would have disintegrated long ago.
"Why don't I experience the fist imprint's owner's fist intent?"
Ye Chen's heart was moved. He decided to experience the fist intent of a ninth layer Life and Death Supreme.
Thirty million li!
Twenty million li!
Twenty million li!
"So powerful!"
Ye Chen's expression changed. He felt waves of boundless fist intent coming right at him, giving him a sense of fear that he had never felt before.
Twenty million li!
Eighteen million li!
Fifteen million li!
At this moment, Ye Chen's face suddenly turned pale. In his perception, a towering 'giant' furiously roared and blasted a fist at him. This fist wasn't very big at first, but in an instant, it filled the entire world, as if the world was about to be shattered by it.
Puff!
Spurting out a mouthful of blood, Ye Chen's entire body was sent flying backwards. He was wounded by the fist intent, his indestructible blue spirit ring had also been shattered, followed by the blue and green spirit rings, and only when he reached the yellow spirit ring did he barely stabilize himself.
"Too powerful?"
Ye Chen had a lingering fear in his heart.
Even at such a distance, the remnant fist intent of a ninth layer Life and Death Sovereign was actually able to injure him. If he hadn't been cautious and used the Soul Ring Secret Art to approach it, his soul would have been severely injured, and there was even a possibility that his soul would have been destroyed. This greatly puzzled him. No matter how powerful a ninth layer Life and Death Sovereign was, it shouldn't be this tyrannical!
If before, Ye Chen only suspected that if he got too close, his soul would collapse. But now, Ye Chen was sure that if he got too close, his life would be in danger!
"Could it be the power of a supreme martial skill?"
Supreme martial skills were supreme martial skills that had reached the peak of martial skills. It was normal for them to contain some tyrannical nature, and this was the only reasonable explanation. After all, the martial will was only at the ninth step, and Ye Chen's Immortal Sword Intent was only at the seventh step, which was only two steps away from the ninth step. The remnant will of the ninth step couldn't injure him from a distance of fifteen million li. Of course, Ye Chen also knew that the might of a ninth layer Life and Death Supreme was greater than others.
"A ninth layer Life and Death Supreme!"
Ye Chen murmured to himself, then turned around and left.
…
Along the way, Ye Chen annihilated a lot of alien races. Unfortunately, honorary commanders were not that easy to come across. For example, human race only had fifty honorary commanders, and the death of one was one less. The total number of honorary commanders of alien races was only a few hundred. Encountering one occasionally was reasonable, but encountering one frequently … even Ye Chen didn't believe that he would be so lucky.
Unknowingly, three days passed.
On this day, Ye Chen arrived near a huge life planet.
This life planet couldn't be considered broken, but it wasn't complete either. On its surface, there were dozens of huge holes. These holes weren't formed naturally, but seemed to have been made by spears. The diameter of the holes was about the same, several tens of thousands of li. The depths were somewhat frightening, extending all the way to the depths of the life planet. Vaguely, one could see the magma inside the planet through the holes, which was dark red in color.
Clearly, the energy of this life planet hadn't completely leaked out yet.
The life planet was like a 'honeycomb' floating alone in the vacuum. From time to time, human figures would enter the planet through the holes. Sometimes it was a single person, sometimes it was a group of two or three, and sometimes it was an entire army. Since Ye Chen was too far away, these people didn't notice Ye Chen.
"There must be something mysterious inside!"
Ye Chen didn't believe that these people entered the planet for fun. There must be something attracting them. However, he was sure that it was extremely dangerous inside. Not only was the environment dangerous, but the enemies were even more dangerous. Who knew what kind of experts he would encounter inside?
Activating his soul eyes to the limit, Ye Chen wanted to see through the entire life planet. After trying hard for a few breaths, Ye Chen had no choice but to close his soul eyes. The energy level of this life planet was too high, and he couldn't see through it, even if it was only a life planet with incomplete energy.
If he wanted to see the mysteries, he would have to go in and take a look himself.
Swish!
Without much hesitation, Ye Chen's figure flickered, flying toward the life planet.
After dozens of breaths, Ye Chen entered through a hole.
The hole was very deep, and waves of hot wind blew out. It was hot enough to melt metal, and the deeper he went, the higher the temperature.
After a while, Ye Chen arrived at the inner part of the life planet.
"So hot!"
As far as the eye could see, there was a black-red color everywhere. It wasn't a black-red flame, but a black-red liquid. This place was like a karst cave, extending in all directions. His soul power was greatly restricted in this place, and could only extend to a few thousand miles away.
If the energy level was too high, it would also have a huge impact on his soul power.
Grabbing a handful of black-red liquid from the surface of the lava, a sizzling sound could be heard. This black-red liquid seemed to be formed by energy, and it had a very strong burning power. Ye Chen guessed that this black-red liquid should be the lava inside the life planet, a mixture of lava and energy.
Without touching the ground, Ye Chen followed the lava tunnel and walked forward.
There were too many lava tunnels, and after half an hour, Ye Chen could not find the way back anymore. So, Ye Chen made up his mind and did not care about anything else. He just walked as he pleased.
"Hm? This is …? "
When passing through a lava tunnel, Ye Chen suddenly stopped. He reached out his hand and made a grabbing gesture. A red gem on the left side of the lava wall landed on his hand.
"This is a spirit power fire crystal!"
Ye Chen was shocked.
Spirit power fire crystals and spirit power crystal stones were two different things, but they had the same effect, which was the power to train the spirit body. The difference was that spirit power crystal stones came from Sea of Souls Realm warriors and Life and Death Realm warriors, while the spirit power fire crystal was a natural product, which was very rare.
"Unfortunately, it is only a low level spirit power fire crystal."
Low level spirit power fire crystals were only effective for rank one and two spirit bodies, while mid level spirit power fire crystals were effective for rank three and four spirit bodies. High level spirit power fire crystals were effective for rank five and six spirit bodies. Right now, Ye Chen was only at rank five spirit body. If he wanted to train his spirit body, he would have to get high level spirit power fire crystals. Of course, Ye Chen would not be able to use them, but Ye Chen's parents could, since they were both at rank two spirit bodies.
Putting away the spirit power fire crystal, Ye Chen kept walking forward with anticipation.
"Another one!"
"There is one here as well!"
Within half a day, Ye Chen had gotten seven spirit power fire crystals, six of which were low level and one of which was mid level.
Ye Chen now understood why so many people had entered this life planet. It was because of some special reason that this life planet had started to produce spirit power fire crystals, which was a rare opportunity.
Life and Death Realm warriors who did not train their body would have a hard time training their spirit body. They would have to rely on external things to train it, and it was the same for Ye Chen.
