The Undying Altar's speed was unimaginably fast. It gave off the impression that it was leaping through the void. Each leap covered a distance of over ten kilometers, and after three or four leaps, it was already over fifty kilometers away. In the end, it was only an illusory white dot.
Yin Demon Ancestor was worthy of being a Master level expert. His entire body was shrouded in an indistinct grey whirlwind as he chased after it.
"Stay here!"
Following Yin Demon Ancestor's roar, the space around the undying altar violently fluctuated, and the cosmos reversed. At the same time, a huge earthen yellow hand descended, wanting to grab the altar.
Pop!
The huge earthen yellow hand split open, and the undying altar broke out of the encirclement. Soon after, it disappeared into the void, completely disappearing from Yin Demon Ancestor's perception.
A sawtooth blade light flickered, almost splitting the space apart. Unfortunately, it was a step slower.
Yin Demon Ancestor's complexion turned unsightly as he halted. Although he knew that the undying altar was extraordinary, he didn't expect it to be able to escape into the void. No matter how powerful he was, as long as he couldn't tear open the space, he wouldn't be able to catch up.
"When I, Yin Demon Ancestor, leave, it will be your death, unless you can cultivate the undying body in a short time."
Yin Demon Ancestor wasn't clear on how difficult it was to cultivate the undying body, but compared to the undying body of a Life and Death King, one could imagine its difficulty. It should be known that entering the realm of Life and Death was not an easy matter, as difficult as ascending to the heavens. In the history of True Spirit Continent, the highest number of Life and Death Kings in a hundred years was merely fourteen, and the lowest was merely eight. Therefore, even if there were shortcuts, it would be impossible for Ye Chen to cultivate the undying body in a short time. Even five or ten years might not be enough.
…
White rays of light interweaved into a thin defensive layer, isolating the berserk spatial power outside. Occasionally, the density of the spatial power would increase a bit, and the undying altar would tremble a bit. Otherwise, it wouldn't feel like it was shuttling through the void.
Standing on the vast undying altar, Ye Chen looked outside through the defensive layer.
There were no objects in the outside world, only flowing colors. Because the colors were too dense, it was impossible to tell how many colors there were. Some that had been seen before, some that had not. These colors seemed to be liquid yet not liquid, gas yet not gas, solid yet not solid. They seemed to be very close, but they could not be touched at all.
"This is the power of space!"
Ye Chen suddenly thought of the Void Shattering Finger Art. As a profound martial art, the Void Shattering Finger Art required the space profound to activate, which was one of the most incredible profound out of all of the profound martial arts. The number of people who had mastered it could be counted on one hand. Therefore, even though he had obtained the third movement of the Void Shattering Finger Art for many years, Ye Chen had never been able to make any progress, and had been stuck at the superficial level.
Puff!
After a moment of hesitation, Ye Chen flicked his finger.
The invisible finger force passed through the defensive layer without any obstruction and came into contact with the power of space.
A miraculous scene happened. Within the flowing space power, a spiral-shaped ripple appeared. It was about ten meters long and three inches in diameter. Of course, this was just a visual observation. As for its true length and width, Ye Chen had no idea. He was currently sensing the connection between the space power and the Void Shattering Finger Art.
"Space mentality!"
Seeing this scene, Murong Qingcheng's beautiful eyes revealed an astonished expression. True Spirit Continent had a saying that time reigned supreme and space reigned supreme. The meaning of this saying was that time reigned supreme among all profound mysteries. If time didn't reign supreme, then space would reign supreme.
The reason why Xuanhou was so powerful was because she had grasped the space profound. Among Life and Death Kings, her strength was second only to Xu King, and she was equally famous as the Evil King and Dragon King. However, this was the ranking of True Spirit Continent. Outside of True Spirit Continent, there was still the boundless Boundless Ocean. Nobody knew what kind of terrifying characters were there. In any case, all Kings were apprehensive of the Boundless Ocean.
Puff! Puff! Puff!
Ye Chen repeatedly used the Void Shattering Finger Art. The defensive layer of interweaving white light didn't obstruct the energy flowing out, allowing Ye Chen's finger force to have a hundred percent effect on the space power.
As the number of times increased, Ye Chen's comprehension of the space mentality deepened.
Space was like a great furnace. Besides time, everything else was its fuel. Grasping the Concept of Space was like gradually understanding this great furnace. When the Concept of Space reached its limit, it would approach the essence of space and enter the realm of profound meaning. But, the profound meaning of space was even more mysterious than the Concept of Space. The Concept of Space was to understand the great furnace, and the profound meaning of space was to grasp it. Grasping the great furnace was the same as grasping all living things.
Faintly closing his eyes, Ye Chen extended his right hand, raised his index finger, and held his breath, seemingly condensing an incorporeal power.
The Undying Altar shuttled back and forth at a rapid speed without any fluctuations.
Standing on top of it, Ye Chen and Murong Qingcheng had different expressions. One was motionless like a statue, while the other was gazing at the other with an unfathomable black light flickering in her eyes.
Buzz!
All of a sudden!
Ye Chen opened his eyes, and his index finger pointed out without any trace.
Outside the defensive layer of the Undying Altar, a 'splash' appeared on the space power. Then, a spiral-shaped ripple spread out at an extreme speed. Ten meters, fifteen meters, twenty meters, twenty-five meters … This time, Ye Chen broke all the previous records. For the first time, the spiral-shaped ripple broke through twenty meters and reached twenty-five meters.
Huff!
Letting out a breath, Ye Chen felt very tired. This finger attack didn't consume a lot of Zhen Yuan, but the amount of essence, Qi, and soul it consumed was beyond his imagination. If he used another finger attack, he might really fall to the ground.
'Void Shattering Finger's third movement … I've finally comprehended ten percent of it. However, ten percent of the Void Shattering Finger's power is even greater than the Sky Thunder Cut. The space mentality is definitely several times more powerful than most mentalities. Unfortunately, two fingers is my limit. Unless it's a life or death situation, I can only use one finger.'
If one finger couldn't kill someone, he could still escape. If two fingers couldn't kill someone, then he wouldn't even be able to run. Therefore, from the current situation, Void Shattering Finger was a double-edged sword. If used well, it could become a life or death ace attack. If not used well, then he would lose his own life.
Murong Qingcheng couldn't tell how powerful Void Shattering Finger was. Time and space could never be judged by appearance. Although it looked ordinary, it was actually a fatal attack. However, Void Shattering Finger, which was powered by the space mentality, shouldn't be too bad. It might be another powerful ace attack.
…
Thunder Region …
It was the region with the richest thunder yuan qi. It wasn't as big as Misty Snow Region, and was considered medium in the southern sector. However, it was the strongest region in the southern sector, and had the most powerful warriors and geniuses, as well as the most sects.
Thunder Region had four great danger zones, and one of them was called Thunder Cry Grave.
Thunder Cry Grave sounded like a graveyard, but it wasn't actually a graveyard as people understood it to be. From another perspective, it was a graveyard of thunder and lightning. Thunder Cry Grave was extremely vast, spanning thirty-three thousand li from south to north, and twenty-eight thousand li from east to west. Due to the abnormal magnetic field, the air and underground of Thunder Cry Grave was filled with lightning, visible to the naked eye. Therefore, it was called Thunder Cry Grave.
Every year, many people would come to explore Thunder Cry Grave, and the majority of the explorers' physiques were inclined towards thunder attribute. Here, they could obtain thunder attribute herbs, ores, and treasures, or even comprehend the thunder mentality. It was also a pretty good choice.
"Old Six, do you feel that the lightning around us has become even more berserk?"
At the edge of Thunder Cry Grave's core zone, an Astral Reaching expert said to his companion.
The middle-aged man called Old Six revealed an astonished expression, "I thought I was the only one who had this feeling. Did you feel it too?"
"That's right. In the past, the lightning's frequency wasn't this fast. I think we'd better leave this place. Thunder Cry Grave is known as a graveyard of thunder and lightning, but the number of people who died inside is also not small."
"En, you're right. Let's leave!"
The two's figures flashed, urging their Zhen Yuan and rapidly flying towards the periphery.
Crackle, Crackle, Crackle!
Crackle, Crackle, Crackle!
As the two had expected, the lightning's frequency was getting higher and higher. In just a few blinks of an eye, the frequency had doubled. After a quarter of an hour, the entire area was shrouded in lightning. A glaring radiance burst out ferociously like a blazing white sun.
Rumble!
The ground within several hundred li suddenly shook.
At the center of the lightning explosion, a huge object broke out of the ground and rushed into the sky. It was wrapped in endless lightning, dragging a lightning flame tail behind it.
"Look, there's a lightning ball shooting out!"
The abnormality could be seen from thousands of li away. When the huge object rushed into the sky, it looked like a lightning ball with lightning coiling around it.
When the huge object reached a height of ten thousand meters, its power disappeared and it fell down. The lightning it brought along collided with other lightning bolts, creating layers of explosions.
Finally, the huge object steadily landed on the flat ground, and the lightning was dissipating.
Finally, when all the lightning had dissipated, the huge object could be seen clearly. It was a four hundred meters wide and one hundred meters tall six-pillared altar. In the center of the altar stood two people, one male and one female. The male was dressed in blue and had a long sword hanging from his waist. He looked delicate and handsome. The female was dressed in a purple dress and had a light veil covering her face. Her black hair was like a waterfall, and her eyes were like cold stars.
These two were indeed Ye Chen and Murong Qingcheng.
They had been brought out of the underground world by the undying altar and came to the surface world. However, they did not know where exactly they were.
Pop!
The white light interweaved into a defensive layer, and the two walked out.
Swish!
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning appeared beside them, striking the ground and cracking it.
Murong Qingcheng muttered, "If I'm not wrong, this should be the thunder region. Only the thunder region's thunder yuan qi is this rich."
"Thunder region!"
Ye Chen smiled bitterly. The place of extreme negative energy was several million li away from the thunder region. As for the strongest region in the southern sector, Ye Chen had long heard of it. To him, even if he did not come this time, he would come again in the future. So, it did not matter.
The ground trembled slightly. Ye Chen turned around and saw the undying altar gradually sinking into the ground until it disappeared.
